**1–Delta's camp, some hours earlier**
Aric was the Lord commander, so, as the students of 1–Delta finished arriving at their castle, he quickly organized everyone.
"I'm going to be honest with all of you." Aric's voice reverberated as he amplified his voice with aether. "There is no way we're winning against 1–Alpha."
"I'm well aware that most of you don't agree with my words." Aric said looking at the reactions and expressions of discontent on the students' face. "But I assure you it is in your best interest to accept that fact."
"The monsters in that class alone, are enough to win this shit." he continued.
"So here's what we're going to do. We'll delay their victory as much as possible, and even then, we won't let them have it easy."
The dissatisfaction on the students face gradually turned into resolve. Of course Aric noticed it, but didn't comment on it.
