"Blood-Lightning Vice Captain." Lurin clasped his hand and vowed once he reached Cain's side. Whether or not they were friends did not matter in events related to military conduct.

"Shortly after we finished with the encampment, hundreds of students came to our side, and that man began to spout nonsense. He shouted that there should be a friendly spar between the best N°1 Rising Roc and the N°1 Lightning Cadet.
At first, we chose to ignore him, but soon he began to taunt us. His words were full of arrogance, and the way he spoke about us made it seem that the military would only be helpful as cannon meat.
It did not take long for him to question the honor and bravery of us soldiers, something I could not allow, so as one of the best 1st-year soldiers, I challenged him to a battle."
