Here to get a meditation card?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Meditation card?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I looked at the senior at the front desk, who spoke first, immediately asking about a card.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That felt very on-brand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, the meditation card is like a membership card here. If it’s too much trouble, you can handle it online through your phone. There are many packages. Want me to go through them one by one?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, no, thank you. I just want to try out the meditation room’s effects for now. I haven’t thought that far ahead.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just a temporary visit? That’s fine too. You can apply freely after getting a meditation card. If you have any questions, just ask me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing my request, she seemed less enthusiastic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it made sense working this late without getting off yet must be tough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, I was already off work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Where can I check that? Is it in the academy system too?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I asked, holding my phone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The academy system had so many functions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the library could be accessed through it, supporting some online reading.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes. Have you linked your student card, freshman? If not, it could be a hassle.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve linked it. Um, I found it. No need to trouble you, Senior.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finding the meditation section in the system, I smoothly located the meditation room reservations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes, reservations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed the meditation rooms here were indeed limited, but I checked and saw there were still some available, so I felt relieved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reservations divided the meditation rooms into tiers, much like standard and luxury rooms in a hotel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a quick look at the differences, I realized it was about the level of service inside, complete with photos for reference.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were basic options: regular meditation rooms and advanced meditation rooms, plus custom bookings for special requirements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I glanced at the prices and immediately gave up on the higher-end options.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They weren’t for me or my wallet’s balance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’d stick with the regular meditation room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those cost between 50 and 100 yuan per hour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes, even the most basic meditation room charged by the hour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though the photos didn’t show why they were worth that much, I couldn’t let my money go to waste, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I checked the time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though the trip to the Aromatherapy Specialty Store delayed me, it was still quite early, assuming I ignored my usual sleep schedule.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I looked at my balance and the current time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, I chose the top-tier option for the regular meditation room at 100 yuan per hour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I didn’t really have a choice; it seemed like those were the only ones left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If I wasn’t quick, they’d be gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for duration, I went with two hours.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My incense would last about an hour, so the extra hour was my last bit of leeway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After booking, my phone displayed a bunch of notices, like not disturbing others’ meditation to preserve the experience, and that staff wouldn’t actively interrupt users.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Overstaying required prompt payment of extra fees.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you overstayed by 24 hours, you’d be forcibly removed, so we had to keep track of time ourselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The meditation room could also have a time reminder set.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not, you have to manage it yourself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After reading a long list of notices, I got my number: 01032.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Um, do I find it myself?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I went back to the front desk to ask the senior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, that number is Room 32 on the first floor. It’s easy to find. Go ahead.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay, thank you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a quick thank you, I headed in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As I walked to the back, I saw a straightforward long corridor with densely packed doors, clearly maximizing space usage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I wasn’t sure if it was my imagination, but it felt bigger inside than it looked from the outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, I found my number hanging on a door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A quick scan opened it easily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon opening the door, a faint scent of incense wafted out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though subtle, it lingered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walking in, I realized the so-called meditation room was smaller than I expected, with barely anything inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just a mat on the floor and a spot for taking off shoes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The worn marks on the floor showed it had been used many times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I didn’t mind and got to work, placing my small incense burner on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coincidentally, there was a designated spot for it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Recalling Senior’s demonstration, I started setting up the incense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This tiny bag was a day’s wages, so I didn’t want to waste a single speck of powder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only after lighting it with the special matches did I breathe a sigh of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the unique scent of the incense wafted out, I began inspecting the room’s facilities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the incense needed time to take effect, it didn’t stop me from doing other things.\u003C\u002Fp>",1146,"2026-06-03T10:21:36.430Z","2026-06-03T10:21:31.928Z",1,"novelbin.me","845687a3d6fed5e7d223a2994bafdc7d8d100229751c6e07ac861e03259d9542","is-it-weird-for-a-guy-to-apply-to-a-witch-school-chapter-62","is-it-weird-for-a-guy-to-apply-to-a-witch-school-chapter-60",710,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fis-it-weird-for-a-guy-to-apply-to-a-witch-school-cover.jpg"]
