Different Rules

Arias’ strange action attracted quite a lot of attention to him. At first, people all believed that this clueless chap was definitely going to be shooed away. Some even felt bad for Arias, thinking that he was about to embarrass himself in public, though there were some who watched this in amusement. Different people had different thoughts.

But when these people saw that Arias was let through the gate easily after speaking a few words to the registration staff, those different thoughts vanished and were replaced by two similar feelings: discontent and anger. All of them had been standing in line for ages, waiting to register for the entrance exam. How could this young man who just appeared out of nowhere be allowed to walk right into the school like that?

“That guy must know the registration staff. That’s why they let him through like that.”

“Using connections like this is cheating!”
