Chapter 359: The AFA
“Thanks for the ride!” The cheery voice of a teenager sounded as he jus The building in front of hi he had ever seen in his life, and this was just a tiny part of the campus
“Are you serious? Have you ever heard about tipping? Come on, I drove you for three hours!” His driver coer had sounded absurd, but since he had paid in advance, Jared had agreed to drive the teenager all the way here Still, part of him had done so in the hopes of a nice tip for this inconvenience, especially given their destination was catered to a special type of people, Altered
“I’m sorry, I paid you all I had on er cheekily scratched the back of his head The taxi driver had trouble believing it, but there was notout a few profanities, he drove off
This little scene had caught the attention of the passers-by, who couldn’t help but comment on the absurdity of the situation “Have you ever heard of so to this academy who couldn’t afford to tip? That y”
“Maybe that's why he dyed his hair green, thinking that it reen” Another coly proud of his use of words
Gary had no proble them, even if they were some distance away, but their coazed at the large ca in real life Truth be told, the teenager still had cash on hih to last a year in Slough, but since he had been warned that his stay here ht be expensive, he had lied to his driver
‘This is it! This is all et ht, as he took in a deep breath and took his first steps forward on to the soil of the acadeh fortunately not at a level that he showed any signs of transfor, but it couldn’t be helped Unlike everyone else who had come here today, he wasn’t exactly an Altered, and if that came out, he shuddered to consider the consequences
‘Kai said it would be okay, and he’s sht’ Gary told hie, and rather than walking straight ahead through the first roup of students was following the signs to sons, Gary closely observed the group he was now part of A quick headcount put them at close to a hundred
‘Man, with all these fancy clothes and jewellery, they even make Kai look humble in cohtclub to whoo soht to hi of girls, the group he was in consisted of around a third of theh perhaps some of them actually were Gary wondered how ‘natural’ their appearances actually were No enetics, money could certainly buy the up, and if all of that didn’t work, then there was always plastic surgery
‘Most of them should either be the children of someone rich and powerful, or be so talented that they were sponsored by a big and powerful organisation Iabout this, Gary reme, he was to say the Howlers Apparently that as filled out on the application form as well
Eventually, the Werewolf’s eyes rested on a teenager with black hair that was split down the ht as hie-wise there shouldn’t be much of a difference either He was dressed in a norh, ironically, that uy stand out even ns stopped when all the students were out on a large open field There were a few campuses that could be seen in different directions, but they were far away Still, they knew they were at the right place because three professors were sitting down in their seats, apparently having waited for them
The oldest one of the lot that had an extre beard, and he was the only one to stand up “As you all should be perfectly aware, the AFA is a coet in, and we pride ourselves in only accepting the best of the best… Unfortunately for you, we don’t consider you as such You were not invited here by our scouts, nor did any of your fah influence for us to trail you separately to let you in”
Gary had to suppress hi when the faces of his peers dropped This stateos For people, who must have been pa told that they were simply leftovers instead of someone truly special
The Wereas perfectly fine with being called as such, he knew that it was the truth of the matter, which hy he had come here in the first place, to the AFA trials The professor held up his hand, spreading all his fingers out, slowly ht side, as if to ood look
“Five Do you knohat that number represents? That's how many open places we have this year Now, don’t be too happy about it There’s no guarantee that all of them will be filled by you In fact, it wouldn’t be too surprising if all of you fail and get sent back hoet, we didn’t invite you, so you’ll have to prove to us that rong!”
“Of course!!!” Gary shouted back
Unsurprisingly, all the other teenagers gave hi them a question Still, Gary didn’t care because he was just too excited to be here
Surprisingly, the old professor didn’t chide him No, he actually smiled at his antics “I like your spirit Let’s see if you’ll stay this chipper after the test The first one starts now Shohat type of Altered you are! If you can’t even do that, then there’s no reason for us to waste any more time with you!”
