The Black Eagles Rise

It's finally time for the mock battle.

This is my chance to measure your worth as an instructor. Do you think you can rise to the challenge?

Leave it to me.
I'm concerned...

So confident. This will be interesting.

That doesn't inspire much confidence, does it?

Each of us has undergone strict training. We're prepared for anything that comes our way.

That means there's no need to hold back. Show us what you're capable of.

Claude, Dimitri enter the scene

Hey there! Did we miss our invite to this strategy meeting? Oh, no worries—we'll just join in now.

Simply tell me your weaknesses, and you're welcome to stay. But is there enough time to cover them all?

Ah, so you can't win unless you know my weakness? Poor princess. You really should believe in yourself more.

I spare no effort when pursuing victory. As a master of schemes, I should think you would understand.

Schemes? Me? I have no idea what you're talking about! I plan to fight fair and square, as ever.

Hearing the words "fair and square" from Claude can only be a bad omen.

Your Highnesses haven't known me for very long, but you already have me figured out, don't you?

No need to poke fun. I will fight with honor. That said, I will fight to win.

Yes, and the same is true of us. Right, Professor?

Don't go too hard on us.
I don't intend to lose.

No use trying to hide how you really feel, Teach. I can see it in your eyes—you don't intend to lose.

If that is how you feel, then I will not hold back.

Manuela, Hanneman enter the scene

Manuela

Aw, how precious. Looks like you and the students have become fast friends.

Hanneman

While I am pleased that you are taking the initiative to acquaint yourself with the students, I'm afraid it's about time for the faculty strategy meeting.

Ah, how time flies! In that case, I'll see you later.
