1296 The Embarrassed Nevis

Now with this new found information, Landon and the rest of Mission: P.T calmly headed out into the open, making their way towards Veinitta fearlessly.

And even at this moment, their mood was stern and serious.

But to those still in Baymard, the atmosphere remained as bubbly as ever.

Very quickly, the sun began to rise, waking many from their slumber.

The morning grass was green and vibrant, with a faint level of dampness to it.

The many flowers quickly unfolded, allowing the insects to visit them as they pleased.

A curtain of countless hues instantly covered the hand, reflecting all sorts of colours upon the streams and waters.

Beautiful. Beautiful... Mother Nature was truly a wondrous sight to behold.

And without a moment to spare, all creatures began waking up and singing their early morning toons for all to hear.

The birds flapped and squealed, the bees buzzed continuously, and even the roosters began cockle-doo-doo-doing down at the Poultry unit.

And to join them in their happy toons, the many engine sounds of vehicles quickly flooded the streets, with everyone purposefully going about their day.

Some rode their bicycles; some took the trains, others walked, while some used the buses, their cars, or any cabs or taxis around.

And like so, the world seemed to come alive.

.

~Ramble. Ramble. Ramble.~~

The constant rambling of many quickly flooded Nevis's ears.

Nevis looked around the scene, feeling his heart pound with frail astonishment deep within.

It's been 3 to 4 weeks since he came to Baymard from Zalipnia. Yet, for the life of him, he still couldn't hide his enthusiasm when taking public transport.

This was the 3rd time he had ever sat on a train. Most of the time, he and his friends would take the bus or a cab to head to where he needed to.

Nevis took deep breaths, trying to calm his quivering body.

Sometimes just appreciating and marvelling at life could make one realize many more things that the world had to offer.

Boom!

His mind had long exploded with the many new and exciting miracles here in Baymard.

For the first time in his life, he knew that there were jobs other than carpentry, shoemaking and many more.

Again, for the first time in his life, he realized that there were so many foods, so many continents in this world from general knowledge here, as well as so many traditions, entertainment activities and just so much more to life than he knew.

Just 2 weeks ago, he had stepped onto a hot air balloon and flew high up in the sky like a bird.

Man can fly! Man can fly!

Baymard had made him feel so empowered that he honestly felt like he would accomplish whatever dream he wanted.

.

Nevis felt blessed.

And at this moment, all around him, countless people were focused in their conversations, with some just reading newspapers or minding their businesses instead.

But for he, who still wasn't used to the scenic sight provided by this sky train, how could he focus on anything else other than his window?

~Woosh!

The train moved fast, winding and bending at various intervals around the many districts.

Nevis excitedly moistened his dry lips while resisting the urge to plaster his face on the window like a dog.

But of course, he wasn't the only one who felt this way.

"Look! Look! That's the famous Old Whilly Clock. Great! We can see it from here!"

Nevis nodded his head in agreement, only feeling the entire scene very surreal.

That's right. He and his friend, Clovis, were dark-skinned people from Zalipnia who lived together with several others under one big mansion in District H.

And just like himself, his friend and a few others, they had come here to study.

Clovis ran his fingers over his seat and looked around the stunning train in awe: "Nevis! Why didn't you tell me that the inside of the train was bigger and more comfortable than that of the bus? Traitor! Traitor! You're a traitor to the brotherhood!"

"_"

.

Nevis looked at his friend funny, not knowing whether to laugh or to cry.

Why the hell did he have such a dramatic person as a friend?

Clovis couldn't believe the sight he was seeing!

This was his first time taking the train. So the moment he stepped in, he had been too blown away that he sat in a daze for over 2 minutes before waking up from his stupor.

Awesome!

The insides of the trains were large and could easily put some people's homes to shame.

(°0°)

Lying trough. What sort of magical carriage was this?

Clovis' eyes continuously darted around in all directions, almost as if he were a squirrel in the wild.

Nevis smiled wryly at his reaction.

Hey! Who was he to judge? The first time he got onto the train, he too had such a reaction.

However, even if that were the case, he still wouldn't let Clovis know that he reacted the same way, or else he wouldn't hear the end of it in the future!

Knowing Clovis, he would probably retell the story everywhere... Even at his wedding.

Nope! Some things were to remain buried and undiscovered forever.

Nevis smiled broadly at his silly friend while still focused on the stunning scenery outside his window.

But even though he and Clovis spoke and marvelled at what they felt was the greatest Baymardian invention of all, their focus was still on something else entirely.

Hahahahahhahaha!~~

Field trip! Field trip!

Finally, they would get to go and see what this whole Field Trip was all about!!

(*0*)

.

Like fools in love, the duo smiled when thinking about it all.

You know, when they first arrived, they did make friends with many others from Pyno, who told them that the school would always organize a field trip twice or thrice for this semester. During the winter semester (A.K.A, next semester), they hardly organized anything.

But now, during this Fall semester, they had the opportunity to experience this thing called 'field trip.'

So how could they not be thrilled?

Do you know that because of this so-called field trip, they almost didn't get any decent sleep last night?

Pah!

Clovis smacked his jaws hard in an attempt to calm himself down.

And soon enough, a voice echoed out within the train, making the duo jump at attention.

~Ding

"Next Stop, Olympus Valley."

Clovis' eyes sparkled: "Nevis, Nevis... That's our stop. You! Are you listening to me? If we miss the time to jump out of the magic doors before it closes, I won't forgive you!!"

(-_-)

.

Nevis looked at the newbie train rider, only wishing that a hole would appear underneath him and swallow him whole.

Bro... Why so loud?

Clovis' voice was somewhat boisterous, calling the attention of a few others.

Many chuckled at the excited and animated boy.

Newbies were always like this. And it was fun to watch them get riled up.

And a comedian who was watching them suddenly had a whiff of inspiration for his next act!

With lightning speed, he quickly took out his pencil and began writing it all as if he were Light in Death note.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Wonderful! Wonderful!

There was peace in the world.
