All of the students were gathered inside the halls and the teachers had assembled them into rows. And by all students, here I mean all the students from the four classes in the first year, not all of the academy.
Mr. Halls stood before the mic which functions via magic, and there was a small magic circle glowing at the top of it. He tapped the circle to check if it was working, and at the same time a buzzing noise was heard all across the hall.
When he seemed satisfied, he held the mic stand with one hand and began.
"As you students must know that your midterms exams will be starting from tomorrow, and I'm sure you all have prepared for it. However, there is one thing you all are not informed about, and today I am here just to do that."
Standing among the crowd of students, I listened to his speech quietly even though I already knew what he was going to say.
