Chapter 148: A Sudden Development

Arthur glanced at him, as he asked:

"Do you mean the final ranking?"

"Part of it, yes," Rayan admitted, as he explained, "I'm sure you are already aware of the presence of the royal clans and guilds in the academy. These clans have already had their main descendants take part of the academy since young age, but those newly discovered by them would take part in the annual competition of the academy."

Arthur silently nodded, as he already was aware of all this. Rayan then added:

"Between these royal clans and guilds, there is a form of competition going on, like factions, alliances are already established, enemies are known to each other, and friends are sought out everywhere."

"That's nice, I suppose you are part of one of these factions, right?" Arthur jumped over these minor details that he already was aware of.
