The Bored Immortal

The entire place was now bustling with the lively and nervous energy of the freshers.

Some, like Tiana, weren\'t nervous at all, but instead, it was as if they had finally found freedom, while people like Sayana were worried about settling in and making friends.

"Dorian, it looks like our dorms are in the opposite direction. The signboard says that the boy\'s dorms are located in the east and the girl\'s dorms in the west. You won\'t have trouble following the map, right? Do you want us to show you the way?" Sayana asked, wondering if Viktor would get lost following the directions.

"Oh, come on. Goodboi is a big boy. Why are you trying to babysit him, Saya? This is college where he has to learn to do things himself, at least simple things like these. Goodboi, surely you don\'t need our help, right?" Tiana asked with narrowed eyes as she looked at Dorian since she really felt that he wasn\'t that helpless or anything. In fact, she felt he was quite sharp despite how he seemed on the outside.

So why waste time when she could use it to explore the college more, especially her dorm?

Viktor smiled brightly, "Of course. I can find my way or ask someone if I get confused."

Sayana also felt that maybe she was trying to babysit him too much, hearing Tiana\'s words and said, "Alright. Just make sure you enter the same room and dorm complex given to you in your email, as it is all pre-assigned for us. See you later then, Dorian. Call us if you need any help."

"Come, Saya. Bye goodboi. See ya later," Tiana bid a quick goodbye as she pulled along Sayana and strode off while Viktor saw the two girls walking away, thinking how different both girls were. One was kind and gentle, while the other was carefree and brazen. He was curious to see how they would be in the future and slowly turned around as he comfortably followed the map towards his dorm.

Still, Tiana\'s glamorous and head-turning beauty was literally turning the heads of all men around her as she walked away, and if one saw the smile on her face, they could see that she enjoyed the attention while Sayana only became a bit jittery feeling all the stares in her direction because of Tiana.

Viktor didn\'t really need a map since all he did was follow the boys, all of them walking towards their dorms with luggage. He saw that only he had the smallest luggage, though he didn\'t really need a big one.

Soon enough, he reached his dorm, which was a large cylindrical-shaped building of sorts with three floors, quite a strange yet polished and classy one, making one feel that the interiors would be nicely furnished as well.

He remembered his block and room number, and using the directions on the board kept in front of the dorm, he saw that his room was located on the third floor.

As he walked up the stairs, he saw that the dorm building was designed in a way that allowed the boys to see each other\'s room from outside their own rooms since the middle of the building was open with no roof.

This let even a guy on the ground floor look up and at least see people walking to and fro on the third floor to a certain extent and vice versa.

Viktor\'s room number was 301, and when he almost reached it, he could see that its door was open and sensed three boys sitting inside, making him wonder if he was going to share his room with three peeps. Then how would he slip out in the night? Nah…it should be fine…I still got a way…

And the moment he stepped in with his luggage, he momentarily froze on his spot in surprise to see these three surprised faces as well.

"Goodboi!" All three of them immediately shouted in surprise while Viktor mumbled, "Little Butkus, Skinny Jim, Bucky? You three…how…" Viktor was surprised to see these three kids as he remembered meeting them in the esports tournament he went to with Tiana.

These three were there to watch the game and even taught him some things about gaming.

"Yo, how the hell did you end up here!" Seeing the cute and tall fat boy floundering towards him with sparkles in his eyes made Viktor awkwardly chuckle hearing his question.

Skinny Jim, the skinny boy with a head shorter than Butkus, also got up from his bed along with Bucky, who was wearing square-shaped spectacles and looked slightly tall with a medium build but shorter than Butkus.

All three of them were genuinely surprised that the mysterious fourth guy was none other than the prodigy they got acquainted with at that esports tournament.

Viktor was also surprised since he found this a strange coincidence that all these three were able to end up in the same room while he had already heard the process of room allocation was entirely random.

Still, he didn\'t mind since at least he knew these three fellows, and they were not a bad bunch of kids to have fun with.

"Dood, maybe even the warden wants us all genius gamers to get along. Otherwise, there is no explanation for Goodboi being here."

Bucky nudged his spectacles as he said with a slight nod, "I would presume so. This must be beyond fate."

"Uh…I am surprised as you guys. How did you three get the same room?" Viktor put forward the question in his mind.

"Oh, one of the members in Skinny Jim\'s family had some friendly connection with the dorm authorities, and he was able to let us land in the same room. Influences surely do help, don\'t they, hehe," Butkus happily said with a laugh, his neck jiggling slightly.

"Dood, how long are you gonna stand there? Come, settle down and pick any bed slot you want. We got two bunk beds on the left and right. You can take the top one if you want."

"Yes. Or you can take my lower one if you want and I can sleep on the top. As the prodigy among us, it is only fitting that you get to sleep well."

"Yo, you guys didn\'t offer me the top spot!" Butkus cried out indignantly.

"And then have you fall on top of us because of your weight? No way!"

"Yes. According to my guess, there is a small fraction of chance the top of the bed could give way and make you fall on one of us. It is only logical that you should sleep on the lower bed for everyone\'s safety."

"Hmph, you guys are bad! Wait till I hit the gym!"

Seeing these three bicker with each other, Viktor subtly smiled, thinking that at least he wouldn\'t get bored in the dorm.
