After coming out of her stupor, Miss Elanor apologized for her behavior, and informed Arya and Aetherius about their lodging and how they could access it and other facility.
"Haha! Excuse me for my such behaviour, but let's forget that. And let me tell you about your lodging for the next five days.
The Safe Zone, we are in right now is a dome shaped area, which is divided into five sectors with this reception area in the middle.
The lodgings are in the south direction, there you found a large hall with many lifts, you just have to enter one of the lift, it will take you directly to your room automatically.
The training area, is in the east, the food court or participants mess in the west while in the north is the community center, where people can talk and chill with each other, there are a few stalls that the player opened you can check all that later." Miss Elanor provided them with a short and crisp introduction to all the facilities. And she handed them a card, that had a number written on it.
One on Arya's while Two on Aetherius's and they understood it signifies their rank.They stored the key in their inventory, and started walking towards the lodgings area.
"Yo! Arya, we should freshen up and rest for a few hours and should meet here later," Aetherius said while walking towards the lift.
"Yeah, we at least deserve some rest, after so long! So, let's meet her after 5-6 hours." Arya agreed with what Aetherius said and decided to go to rest.
"You bet!" Saying so, Aetherius went inside one of the many lifts present in front of them.
Arya followed suit and entered one of the lifts. The lift's door closed and started going upwards and a little later, the door opened.
Arya exited the lift and noticed the room he was assigned, calling it a room was an insult it was like a luxury suite from a seven-star hotel, as it was even bigger than the apartment Arya currently staying in the real world.
"Damm! So, this is what the people at the top got during the tutorial, the one I got in my previous life was just a normal room with a hall with an attached washroom." Arya said to himself as he recalled the difference between the room he received in his previous life with the one he just got.
As Arya was very tired he first took a shower and after coming out of the bathroom, he didn't waste much time but went to sleep on the king-size bed present.
....
"So, where should we go first?!" Arya asked his companion, Aetherius.
It's been five hours since they arrived at the safe zone, as they talked before that they would meet after five hours.
They did so, and right now both of them were walking sideways, from the lounge to the reception area, to access other facilities. To go to any other facility one had go through the reception area, which is in the center of the dome.
"Well, let's eat something, after that, we can go to either the community center or the training area!" Aetherius replied and Arya accepted and they both started going towards the mess which was in the west direction.
"Many people are still arriving!" Aetherius muttered as he noticed many people appearing on the circular platform.
But this is to be expected as a lot of people are selected to participate in the trial from all over the world.
And one more interesting thing is the time inside the tower moves differently at different places.
Like in the fourth stage, the people who entered the white gate, have just to walk a small distance before reaching the safe zone, the blue gate has to participate in the three-day trial while the red gate has to spend ten days there.
But they reach the safe zone simultaneously, which is not possible in the real world, as time is a linear vector.
"Well, it doesn't matter much to us, let's go to our destination!" Arya said, and both he and Aetherius continued their short journey.
As they were walking some distance, they reached the western gate that leads to the mess, after entering the message they noticed it was mostly empty.
So, Arya and Aetherius both headed towards the food counter and saw the VVIP section, they recalled that Elanor told them about the benefits they would get as the top rankers.
So they went and started taking the food from there. After taking their food, they went to a vacant table and started eating their food.
"What do you mean, I can't take food from here!! Do you even know who I am?!" While Arya and Aetherius were eating they heard a loud shout that attracted their attention.
They noticed a group of four people were trying to take the food from the VVIP section, but the waiter and food server stopped the group.
"You! Lowley servants! How dare you stop me from taking the food! I will kill you?!" The person who is most likely to be the leader of the group, shouted in anger at the staff present and brought out his sword from his inventory.
"Might not be the best idea," Arya commented nonchalantly, but the leader heard it clearly.
"What did you say, you f*cking commoner! Let me first deal with these bastards, I will see you later?!" Cleaning ignoring the warning Arya gave to the guy, the guy with the sword warned Arya instead.
Seeing the time of that guy, Aetherius turned angry, and asked Arya," This little-, Arya should I go and knock some sense into this weak shit." Because not only that guy shouted at his friend Arya, when Arya tried to help
"Nah, forget it! And just enjoy the show." Arya said with a mischievous smile on his face, this confused Aetherius but he still agreed and decided to watch.
