It was possibly the last match of the day, or at least that was what all of the Wilton students and teachers believed as they sat together in the waiting room. After everything they had witnessed, after watching Raze fight and seemingly lose before, they could not picture anyone defeating him again. Even if the opponent was Kayzel, the son of one of the most powerful Grand Magus in existence, their faith in Raze remained unshaken.
Just before stepping out, Raze paused and turned back to face them all. His expression was calm, his white hair catching the glow of the lights in the room. His voice, though soft, carried an edge that made every word heavy.
"I need you all to be ready for what might come," Raze said. "I'll do my best to make sure none of the Wilton students or teachers get dragged into this. As for those from Pagna, it may be far more difficult to leave quietly, there are too many eyes watching us here. But if an opportunity arises, I won't let it slip. Be prepared."
