Changing one's fate

When Michael arrived at school many people were looking at him strangely. He was confused as to why he who was usually invisible in the eyes of others suddenly become someone they found interesting. As he continued to walk towards his classroom some of the students finally decided to approach him. 

"Hey, you're Michael from Class 1-C right?" 

"... Yes..."

"So it really is you!" 

When the other students heard Michael's confirmation they started swarming the confused Michael and bombarded him with questions. 

"Is it true that you're friends with Shin?" 

"Did you and Shin beat up Hayate's group?"

"Why were you the only one who wasn't detained?" 

"Did you get to see the soldiers of the Elite Dragon Brigade?" 

"Is Hayate really as powerful as they say?"
