Xaloc and Ezekiel left the hall after exchanging a couple more greetings. Outside were students dressed in a similar uniform with badges pinned to them and a table in front of them.
So this was the place they would register. They walked to a table. The student sitting there glared at them.
"What is your name?" He asked curtly as he opened a book. The book gleaned slightly, reminding Xaloc of the book Mrs Varoff opened on stage.
"Ezekiel Stones." Ezekiel was so shocked by the boy's tone that he quickly blurted out his answer.
Xaloc looked at the badge the boy was wearing. "John Cross. Rank 189"
It seems like the chore of attending to the new students was left to the lower ranking. No wonder, he was not happy with them.
Xaloc knew he had to get a much higher ranking and fast. He would not bear to be treated like this.
"Which Division?"
