" I'm not in charge of vetting newcomers anymore. Of course, I'm not the only one. The Alliance stopped recruiting new mages a month ago."
Matthew raised his eyebrows.
"Is that true?
" Looks like my luck isn't bad. I managed to join the Alliance before the recruitment stopped."
Fandral smiled.
"You're different from the others."
However, he did not elaborate on what was different. Instead, he changed the topic.
" In the context of the war, most of the people in the Alliance have been trained to be the adjudicators of the war.
"I heard that a battle would have at least three official mages and even more apprentices. These three mages would be a chief adjudicator and two deputy adjudicators.
"The two deputy adjudicators were responsible for tracking and recording the marching situation of both sides and the details of the battle.
