7 Room (2/2)

Having gotten the consent for a shower he hurriedly followed through and took a fast shower, before wearing the uniform and leaving the bathroom.

After coming out Van Bergen stood up and circled around him nodding his head. ”Not bad, It seems the uniform suits you, which is good, since you have to wear them until you reach rank A.”

”So you are rank A mentor? Since you aren't wearing a uniform.”

”Yup. But if you want to know more about the ranks you will have to check it out yourself. It is described in the rule book. Now lets get going.”

He left through the front door, indicating for Ivan to follow him. As soon as they left the door they entered a long hallway with at least a hundred doors. On the floor there were arrows directing them to go left.

His mentor saw him looking at the arrows and told him, ”Since the buildings are huge and look the same these arrows can be used to find the exit, so if you ever find yourself lost in a building just follow them and you will reach the exit.”

Ivan nods and follows him down the hallway until they reach a staircase. ”Do you know about lifts?”, Van Bergen asks while pointing at a pair of doors.

As soon as he hears the word lift Ivan feels some knowledge pouring into his mind which wasn't there before and he stumbles, while gripping his head. His mentor hurriedly grabs his shoulder to stabilize him. ”What happend?”

Ivan waits for the pain to subside before answering. ”I don't know. As soon as I heard the word lift there was a lot of knowledge pouring into my brain, like what a lift is, how it works, how to craft it and other supplementary information.”

”So much? It seems like your past self knew quite a bit about them. Don't worry, I never have met someone like you who had a hard rest, but I heard that they sometimes can regain past knowledge after being triggered.”

”So it is knowledge, that I forgot?”

”I guess so, but I'm not a specialist in these things but I would say to just ignore it and be happy about easily gaining some knowledge.”

”Since I don't think I can do anything about it I will just have to live with it, but it fucking hurts.”

”That always happens when a large amount of knowledge enters you mind. You will get used to it, since quite a few spells have the same effect when you learn it.”
