Chapter 205: Arrival (1/2)
No matter the era, flying with something above economy class was always great. Despite having more advanced technology, the aviation industry still had three average classes: Economy, Business, and First Classes to get money.
Theo just enjoyed their flight and ate until he was full. It had been so long since he got spoiled anyway, so he took advantage of the flight to spoil himself to the fullest.
Unfortunately, the plane didn't take too long to arrive. It was just a simple six hours flight and they needed to leave the airport as soon as possible, going to their accommodation for a few weeks.
As soon as they left the airport, Theo stretched his hands while yawning.
”Someone got spoiled during the whole flight,” Phyrill smirked and teased Theo while the latter only ignored him and looked around.
”I'm sure you don't forget that we're here to compete, right?” Radvils glanced at them with a serious expression.
”Of course.” Phyrill smiled and looked around. ”But it's fine to stroll around, right?”
”The competition will start in three days and what you're doing for those three days is to grow accustomed to the environment here. Just do some light training and do everything together, that's all.”
”Roger.” Alea smiled and said cheerfully. ”That means I don't need to find a reason to drag Theo out of the hotel to look around.”
”Haha.” Ellen chuckled and gently stroked her cheek with a helpless expression. She patted Theo's shoulders and said, ”Just enjoy, okay?”
Theo shrugged and looked away.
”Anyway, let's go to the hotel first. Our ride…” Radvils looked around before finding a minibus with a white flag swayed by the wind. The white flag had an eagle symbol on it coupled with a crescent moon acting as a branch where the eagle perched. It was their country's flag. ”There…”
”Oh!” Although Alea often flew to other countries, it was the first time she went with friends like this, so she became too energetic after leaving the plane.
Sihan and Laust remained silent while following Radvils. And the others also started walking to the bus before meeting a middle-aged man standing next to the minibus.
He had white hair and gentle eyes. He wore a long brown coat and black pants, smiling at them. ”Hello, I will be your guide during your stay here. Just call me Old Herman and I'm from the same country as you guys… I've lived here for a decade, so wherever you go, I can bring you there.”
”He has been driving our teams for the past three years.”
”Of course. Since my hometown will participate in this competition, it's time for me to show my support.” He laughed. ”Keep working hard and don't give up, okay?”
Radvils ignored him and entered the bus, albeit he didn't forget to give one message. ”This team is different from the past. They're already at the international level, so you may become our driver for a little longer.”
The middle-aged man smiled when he heard that. He was always saddened by the cries of the team every single year because none of them could participate in the grand competition. Seeing that there was hope, the middle-aged man was delighted. ”I will be looking forward to it. Please make me become your driver for weeks, okay?”
Theo didn't have a change of expression, entered the minibus and sat next to the window.
The rest also followed them and hopped on the bus as Herman drove them across the city.
