The group arrived in Psyberion City through the teleportation array.
Psyberion City was a high-tech city and was one of the ten cities that surrounded the Capital.
Specifically, Psyberion was a city that specialized in arrays, barriers and seals. This was the holy land for array masters and their ilk. Streets upon streets were filled with the work of array masters, creating a splash of beauty amongst the still buildings.
In Psyberion City, the love for arrays was felt from every corner of the city.
Everyone from the youngest child to the oldest, the highest of classes and the lowliest beggars had at least a basic understanding of arrays here, and their education reflected it.
Out of ten array masters, at least six came from Psyberion City itself, and the rest were nurtured by sects and clans.
Of course, many of Psyberion's inhabitants joined sects and clans as well, so it might have been more accurate to describe it as seven or eight out of ten array masters.
The people that walked the streets looked just like other cities, however, there were many more people who continuously walked around with a book clutched in their hand. Some pedestrians would randomly stop in the middle of the street and stare at a drawn array.
The place gave off a different air as compared to the rest of the cities that Alec had been in, and while he was taken aback by it, the city was growing on him quickly.
Alec and Clause looked around with bright, glistening eyes. It was something that wasn't missed by the older disciples and elder.
The sight of the two acting their age made them appear more adorable to them, as they reminisced about the first time they too stepped foot into Psyberion City.
Seeing Alec act like his age instead of seeming unaffected caused them to feel a bit closer to the socially awkward Alec, who tried to hide his unhidden curiosity from their eyes after he noticed their stares. His cheeks were a bit pink, which made them feel a strong urge to pinch his cheeks.
He wasn't a bad boy at all, just sort of socially awkward! Their opinion of their senior disciple was quickly changing the more they observed his reactions. After all, someone who smiled so gently shouldn't be a bad boy. It was just that they'd been trained to observe rather than rashly jump to conclusions.
Alec didn't know that he'd been labelled socially awkward by the older disciples, but even if he did, there wasn't much that he could say about it. After all, he really didn't know how to interact with people properly unless they first set up precedent behaviour.
Clause snapped back to himself and glared at Alec, letting out a huff when he realized that the boy wasn't affected like he was! The teen crossed his arms, annoyed when he thought about how he'd been acting like a country bumpkin in front of a younger boy.
Elder Faye led them to an inn that they used every time they came to Psyberion City.
The innkeeper recognised elder Faye, quickly settling their lodging.
Faye turned to the disciples that were standing behind her respectfully. "The array proficiency test is tomorrow, so don't go drinking if you want to pass. You are free to explore, but not alone. The gathering time tomorrow is at eight. If you're late, you can wait another ten years before we'll let you come down the mountain again."
With that, the elder left them to their own devices.
The disciples paired up quickly before heading out. Some of them glanced at Alec, asking if he wanted to go with them.
Alec would have preferred to go out himself, but he wasn't willing to rock the boat when elder Faye specifically told them not to just yet, so he accepted the invitation from two older sister disciples.
The smile Alec gave them caused them to melt, and their previously neutral feelings leaned more towards friendly.
With the conversation started by the two females, Alec replied naturally with the cues, completely giving off a gentle vibe. This only caused them to feel more partial to him.
He must have been terribly lonely without anyone else near his age to talk to! Now that they thought about it, no new disciples had joined their division this time round other than Alec, who was personally recruited by elder Nathan.
They usually had three or four new disciples each time the recruitment test was held, but against all odds, this year there was only Alec.
The next youngest disciple was fourteen, a year younger than Clause, which was still older than Alec's eight-years-old.
No wonder he had been so withdrawn!
Jade and Claire both decided that they would look out for their senior disciple. How was he to learn anything if he didn't have any guidance inside their division?
The two silently tutted, annoyed at themselves for not reaching that conclusion earlier. After all, he was elder Nathan's only direct disciple, which meant that there was only elder Nathan that could answer his questions. He didn't go through the selection process either, which meant that he had no friends amongst the disciples in the other peaks either.
Thinking up to this point, they felt their hearts go out to the poor boy. Neil Clan or not, that hadn't excused their inaction up to this point.
Alec felt Jade and Claire's friendliness to him grow exponentially, but he had no idea why.
The three flitted from store to store, picking up various books and trinkets, their eyes shining and sparkling when they saw endless amount of knowledge at their disposal.
This caused Jade and Claire to both grow closer to Alec when they saw how fanatically he took in the various books regarding arrays, feeling like he was just like the rest of them on the array division's peak.
They were all crazy about arrays, which was not something that could be instilled. It was something born of genuine interest that could not be faked.
Their senior disciple was only eight and he already acted like this, which meant that his love for arrays was not any less than theirs!
They even planned to loan him some money, but Alec shook his head sheepishly. Before he left the peak, his master had shoved a crystal into his hands that contained so many digits Alec almost felt like his eyes went temporarily blind.
He did feel bad taking money from the man, but since it was given to him, he wouldn't hold back. Alec was already making plans about the sale of his Magnitude Seal, which would give him more leeway monetarily.

He'd secretly shove the money back to his master in a way that the man wouldn't be able to refuse.
So, he was currently expanding his knowledge base. Many books here in Psyberion were mainly related to the profession or arrays, which was just as well.
When they stepped out of the shop, Alec heard a voice mockingly call out.
"Yo, isn't this our Yraii City's famous young master? Didn't you tuck your tail in and run off to try and join a sect?"
There was a group of lavishly dressed young masters strutting around. There were roughly seven of them, and the one at the helm was directing a mocking glance at a familiar figure.
