[Maxon's POV]

Term started a month ago and I'm already struggling on adjusting my time on classes and training Kai. I have Spellworks and Tangibles as Magical Disciplines and having two of them together can really drain the strength out of me. As an Oberteil, I have to reach pass the standards of everyone at school especially I'm one of the few students who can have two Magical Disciplines.

It's already snowing at Durmstrang and you can already see everyone wearing their thick fur coats and hats. The castle is built at the top of a mountain, making the whole place super cold. It's nothing to us older students anyways, we've already adapted to the freezing temperature inside and outside the castle.

I'm eating lunch with Finn and the others on our usual table near the other Oberteils. Even eating at the Hall we are still divided based on our Ranks, well that's what the other Oberteils sees. Zufrienden and Dregs are getting along so well that they're breaking the non-existent rule to only eat and talk with your respective stratas. That annoyed me so much. I can't make friends or even look at other students except the people who wears red and gold. I shouldn't worry but I couldn't help it. Even though I'm well respected and everyone looks highly of me doesn't mean I can't get kicked off my rank. Half of the Oberteils already despises me and my friends because we are able to get special privileges that we didn't even asked for. I can see they're just waiting for us to make a mistake and in one blink of an eye they'll vote me or my friends out of being an Oberteil.

I stopped eating and played with my food. Finn might have noticed my change of demeanor and nudged me at the side. I looked at him bored and irritated.

"What?"

"Are you okay?" He eyed me, scanning the feature of my face. Dark circles surrounding my half opened eyes. I nodded looking back down at my plate still playing with my leftovers.

"We've only been here for a month and you're already looking like a dead troll." He stated while fixing his coat. I scoffed rolling my eyes. I was about to make a nasty comment but I quickly sat up straight when I heard someone clearing their throat behind me. I looked back and saw Tolga Safer an Oberteil, Karkaroff's personal Aide.

"Sorry to interrupt your lunch but Headmaster Karkaroff is calling for your presence at once Mr. Emrys." He said looking straight at me. I glanced back at my friends and nodded at me. I stand up and followed Tolga to Karkaroff's office.

I walked behind him while putting on my winter cloak. Moments later I found myself standing still and looking forward not moving my head at all as Karkaroff kept talking.

"...If you and the others accept. All of you will be accompanying me to support our school at the tournament that is going to be held at Hogwarts." He finished standing in front of me smiling with his stained teeth showing.
