Ch.10: 2F - Lero-Ro's Test (2)

2F - Lero-Ro's Test (2):  Starts off with some Regulars poking the Shinsoo barrier and getting shocked as a result, it then continues with Baam sitting down thinking, he is then approached by Lero-Ro, who intrigued by the former, states he looks bored and says "How about we have a little chat?" Lero-Ro suggests that they have a little bet, which is to guess who out of all the regulars will pass through the Shinsoo barrier first, the winner getting to ask the loser any question they want. Baam says with excitement that he'll do it. Lero-Ro almost immediately picks Anak, Baam, while inspecting the Regulars, thinks to himself that there is a strong chance Rachel has come this way and that Lero-Ro might have seen her. Baam notices something around Anak making her stand out (it's likely Shinsoo, most likely due to her being a Demi-Princess). Baam, based off that, also picks Anak. Lero-Ro asks him why, to which Baam simply states "a feeling..." Just afterwards, Anak passes through the barrier quite easily, which leaves a nearby regular in awe.

Lero-Ro states it's a draw, but concedes anyway, saying that since he's the Ranker he will answer Baam's questions. Baam asks about Rachel and gives a description of her to Lero-Ro, who states that he hasn't seen her but that it's possible she may have been tested at another location, so he'll ask the other examiners for him. Baam then asks about Irregulars. The scene shifts to Ship Leesoo still trying to get through the barrier, saying it makes no sense that his team mates could get through the barrier but he couldn't. Serena Rinnen then taunts Leesoo about not being able to get through the barrier, stating that only chosen people like her can get through the barrier. While taunting him, her head smacks into the barrier and starts bleeding. Leesoo taunts her, calling her an old lady, and asks if she'd like him to wipe the blood from her face. Leesoo and Serena then start yelling and banging on the barrier, waking up Laure, who asks them to keep the yelling to outside the Tower. Laure then proceeds through the barrier without any trouble and lays back down with his pillow and blanket to go back to sleep, which enrages Serena and Leesoo. Serena yells that she's going to rip apart his pillow and blanky, and Leesoo says he wont be able to rest peacefully until he kills that bastard.

The scene then shifts back to Lero-Ro answering Baam's earlier question stating an Irregular is "someone who violates the Tower's laws" Baam asks about this to which Lero-Ro tells him about the structure of the Tower. Lero-Ro notices that it seems to be the first time Baam is learning this knowledge, which he points out, causing Baam to panic and claim that he already knew what he was being told. Lero-Ro then states that Regulars are all 'chosen', and that the choosing of Regulars are done by Headon. Rarely, though, those that aren't chosen make their way into the Tower and they are the Irregulars. Baam asks if Irregulars are bad people to which Lero-Ro replies, "even though they are against the laws of the Tower, that doesn't mean they all must be bad people", then stating "however all the Irregulars that have come in... Phantaminum, Enryu, Urek Mazino (implying they are the only Irregulars so far) have had so much power that they became a symbol of fear". Baam asks if it would be possible to meet them to which Lero-Ro affirms; "of course it is, at the top. Since everything exists at the top." Then, a Regular who hasn't made it through the barrier starts complaining and boasting about his power, saying he's the strongest out of the Regulars and calling the test stupid. Lero-Ro then passes through the barrier to see the Regular who then says he can tell at a glance that Lero-Ro is weak. Lero-Ro chastises him for not realising this test was the last merciful chance he will get. Lero-Ro then says he must be stupid and he will teach him the power that exists in the Tower the hard way and it is why he can't possibly progress higher.
