"Thank you," I wore her clothes and shoes from when she was younger.

Melissa also gave me her bus and train pass. It would be easier to get to the neighbouring city now. I sadly smiled before closing the door. I ended up staying the night in her room and found out it was true that the neighbouring city was where their old headquarters had been. I seamlessly blended into the crowd as many people around my age rushed to get to school. Her long cloak hid what I was wearing underneath, making me look like I was one of them.

I walked to the train station as it would be the fastest route to get there. I swiped the card at the entry points as I waited for the bullet train to come. So this was what a normal person's life was like. I enjoyed the scenery outside the window as this reminded me how I would commute to school in my former life. I never thought I would miss it as I had to pay attention to all the schedules to catch them in time.

When my stop appeared on the screens, I stood to get ready to leave. I skipped while I relished the ordinary lives of other people bustling around me. I was tempted to join them as I slapped my cheeks to follow through my plan. I soon found myself in front of the old headquarters, which was owned by another company. I grimaced as the logo plastered near the roof read, 'Roselia International Bank'.

This had to be one of the worst-case scenarios to land myself into. I should've read the article about this building more carefully. If I revealed my identity, I wouldn't have to ruin one of their properties. But at the same time, Luke could get a notice about my current location through them. I didn't know if this was the right building yet as that tale was a thousand years old. The chairman's office could be located anywhere in the second district.

But there was no way the receptionist would know that I was engaged to the heir of the owners of this company. It would be better to ask if there was the chairman's office in this building before breaking in like last time. I walked up to her desk and asked, "does the chairman have his office here? Or is there an empty office for him?"

"Unfortunately, the chairman doesn't have an office here. He manages all the company affairs in the first district," she nicely answered my question.

I smiled as I thanked her for the information. I guessed this wasn't the place as well. I tried to recall the scenery in my dreams. If I was high up in a building to see a certain section in the city, where would I be? Although the owners had changed, the overall layout had to be the same. Maybe I should try going to a tower to get a better sense. There was a tourist attraction in this city for having the tallest tower in all of the second district.

I left the building as my silver hair accidentally poured out of my hood. Unfortunately, the silver hair colour attracted a lot of attention as many people in the first district possessed it. Especially the special characteristic of the Roselia family where it shone in colours of the rainbow from the light reflecting off it.

"You're from the Roselia family," the receptionist gasped.

This was the time to run. I opened the map as I sprinted towards the tower. Feeling excited that I would be trying out food that normal people ate at Melissa's house, I had stuffed myself during breakfast. I had more energy than I usually did. I took some deep breaths in front of the entrance of the tower as I pulled out some pocket money.

Melissa wasn't hesitant to give me some money, thinking that I would need it. I went up to the ticket machine to pay for a ticket. Once it printed, I walked towards the elevators. I didn't have a lot of time until Luke would figure out I was inside this city. My eyes reflected the sunlight making all the buildings glimmer. I pressed my hand against the glass walls, admiring the view. I smiled as I took some pictures to remember this scene.

My vision wobbled from my tears of appreciation as the two scenes from my dream and what I saw right now began to merge together. I had seen this scenery before, except I was at a lower floor. The office had to be somewhere inside this tower. I had finally found the place I wanted to find. However, this place had a total of over three hundred floors. Most of them were rented out to smaller companies that needed the space.

The tourists could only access certain floors. How would I go through all the floors alone? This was almost an impossible task. It had to be done by trial and error to find where I could see the same scenery. I sighed as I decided to enjoy the top floor to comfort myself. There may be a chance that I wouldn't be able to come back here again. I also tried to calculate which floors were more likely.

"You're so beautiful, can I take a picture?" Someone from behind asked.
