"HOOHHH!!"
A resounding battle cry abruptly rang out from the floor below. All guards were curious about what was going on but had no way to know at the moment.
Not even a minute later, a flood of troops climbed up the nearest stairwell from the floor below. And they all wore armor from Lightning Chateau.
As the defending guards had to steel their will once more, the rebelling disciples and instructors cheered along with the battle cry of their reinforcements.
Zzrch! Frrrip!
Then, with a single swing of a sword, the rebels stopped cheering. The masked guards never dropped their defenses and watched carefully. And Eidar smiled wide underneath his mask.
