458 The Feast

'Wait, didn't Reever tell me that this nation didn't hold prejudice against people who didn't have Aether? Then why are these folks the only one begging?' he wondered.

It wasn't exactly only the non-Aether users that were here. There were also some Aether users. But they were simply Aether Starters. And, if after many years, they still remained that, then they could be considered as good as a  Non-Aether user. 

Ning wondered if the nation secretly hated them by any chance. "Hmm, that's not right. Jamie is clearly a non-Aether user, but he's doing pretty fine," Ning thought.

He thought over it for a few minutes when he realized what it was that was causing all of this.

"I see," he thought. The Aether users, no matter how bad they were, as long as they had just the tiniest amount of skills, could find a job for themselves somewhere.

And as expected, a bad Aether user could always do more than a good non-Aether user.
