Chapter 177: Factions

Any two individuals, even twins, had differences. 

Even if their physical resemblance was over 99%, their thoughts would diverge greatly. 

Thus, monolithic organizations were only possible on paper. 

Imperial Defense Academy wasn't monolithic. With its constituents, it was never destined to be. 

Instead, a group of powerful factions backed by powerful forces led its operations.

These factions were composed of people nurtured by the said powers or those who sought refuge in them. 

A faction was thus essentially a group of cadets brought together for mutual benefits. But there was a chain of command that must be followed. 

Who led these factions?

Like the outside world, the inside of the institution also faced the influence of the Big two and small two. 

Prime Families and Military were the big two. Trade Union and Adventure Guild were the small two.
