The sun had barely set when Jean summoned all his captains and commanders to the guild hall. Billy went alone again because his friends were guarding the walls with their students. He didn't have that kind of role, after all. Everyone knew that the enemies were eager to end that fight as soon as possible, so they probably would attack at night as well. The day had been a cloudy one, and so would be the night… perfect for night raids.
"Thank you for your hard work, everyone," Jean said while showing the bags under his eyes. "We don't have much free time, so I will be brief. You all have to keep your troops awake at night to defend the walls. It will be hard, but you can't use more than half of them at night."
"The enemies won't be able to attack all out at night too many times, night raids are also tough for the attackers," Gerald said. "The only problem is that they have their crossbows and shields."
