"What...?" Neraxis tilted his head in confusion. "A captain? Why would I get extra work?"
"It's not up for debate. Eight people were chosen from each of the special academy classes, and you were one of those chosen." Magnus explained sternly.
"Did the headmaster choose me?" Neraxis asked, earning a nod in response.
"Indeed. The moment the tournament's requirements were announced, your name was the first to come up. The other instructors took note of your Dreamspire progress and decided to give you the go-ahead," Magnus added.
This sounds like a bad deal, though... What do I even get out of it? Neraxis thought.
But as if reading his mind, Magnus soon spoke again.
"What you get in exchange is the opportunity for further growth. Your duties will begin once the second phase of the tournament starts." Magnus narrowed his eyes. "Of course, you will get rewards, which will be issued by the headmaster as well."
Neraxis nodded. "...I see. I guess I have the gist of it now."
