When Nolan exited the class, he saw the students pouring out of their various classrooms.
Unlike in the morning, things were quieter than usual.
Nolan's eyes flashed as he walked toward the school exit gates.
He noticed two-star Ascendants walking among the one-star Ascendants.
He didn't need to be told what was happening, but everything had nothing to do with him.
Smartly, Nolan weaved through the students, using precision to avoid any gaze that lingered on him for too long.
He made sure to evade the predatory stares.
It hadn't been up to five minutes when he exited the gate, finally freeing himself from the clutch of the two-star Ascendants.
He inhaled deeply, feeling a sense of relief.
[What? You're scared of those jerks?] the system mocked, seeing Nolan exhale after avoiding trouble.
