The Fern family wasn't a small name, and people were well aware of how much power it carried. Any situation involving a member of the Fern family was a big deal in most places, and as such, Axel's actions in challenging one of them sparked widespread reactions.
It came as no surprise that Axel became even more popular after successfully defeating a pyrokinetic.
The next few days were strange for him. Wherever Axel went, heads turned, voices dropped into whispers, and sometimes people even approached him, hoping to befriend him.
"Hey, bud!" a male student called out one day after lunch. "I heard you woke up. How are you feeling?" the boy asked with a light smile.
Other times, it was good-looking girls going out of their way to get his attention. Not that their looks mattered much to Axel.
Getting approached by girls was a completely new experience for Axel Vaelon. Despite being good-looking, he was still a bit of a weirdo at heart.
