"Huh!?" Leona slowly rises from the ground and fully stands up on his two feet but is a bit dizzy.

"You're finally awake!" Grim said. "We weren't sure what to do if you stayed passed out like that! Now then, go ahead and confess that all of the accidents were part of your plan."

"What... come again?" Leona questioned as his eyes are wide open.

"Mr. Kingscholar." Crowley arrived at the Savanaclaw dorm, a few minutes ago. "You fell into an overblot rampage due to being consumed by blot and negative energy. Do you not remember?" Crowley explained to Leona.

"I went on a rampage... Overblot? You're kidding..." Leona said in shock, as his eyes are wide more.

"More importantly, the magical shift tournament is about to begin. If you don't confess, we can't get our prize and play in the tournament!" Grim yelled at Leona.

"Huuh...? What're you talking about?" Leona asked.

"They went after you in order to get permission from Headmaster to play in the magical shift tournament." Jack lightly explained.

"Eh? You did it for something like that?" Ruggie inquired.

"'Something like that'!? You went around injuring people for 'something like that'" Grim shouted at Ruggie with rage on his face.

"Ugh, Th-that's... right, I guess." Ruggie gives in.

"Then it's safe to assume that the series of accidents around campus were all your dorm's doing?" Crowley asked him.

"...Yeah, they were." Leona finally admitted. 

"Understood. Then, first of all, Savanaclaw Dorm is disqualified from this year's tournament. Further punishment will be decided after I have discussed it with those that you injured. Is that clear?" Crowley said while facing Leona.

"... Crystal." Leona replied.

"......." Ruggie and Jack are upset.

"Headmaster, please wait a moment," Riddle spoke up between the two.

"Mr. Roseheart? And you all are..." Crowley gazed at the group of people behind Riddle.

"Yes. They are all the victims in the accidents."

"Headmaster, as the victims we have a request to ask of you." Trey said, "Could you please refrain from disqualifying Savanaclaw and have them play in the tournament?"

"What is this now? Are you saying... to let them off?" Crowley asked, confusingly.

"You guys..." Ruggie mumbled.

"No, we're not letting them off," Jamil spoke up.

"If Savanaclaw doesn't play then we can't get the payback we so crave," Trey added.

"Eh, eeehhh!?" Ruggie screamed as he steps back.

"Payback!?" Jack screams in shock as Ruggie.

"Personal squabbles involving magic are prohibited on campus," Riddle said.

"Magical shift is a well-respected sport, right?" Trey said with a smirk, "However, it is also known as a field where you can have an all-out magical battle... you know."

"Yeah. I won't get any closure if I don't get at least one hit on you guys." A heartslabyul resident said.

"Time for battle! Pick up the glove!" The Pomefiore resident said as he throws his glove in front of him.

"I don't know what happened to you all, but Savanaclaw looks to be in worse shape than all of us," Jamil said, he then gazed around his around hoping to see Y/n, who seem to be standing on her two feet and doesn't have any injuries around her body.

"Since we know who the culprit is I think getting rid of our grudge with a game of magical shift is rather convenient," Trey stated.

"Leona, didn't you say something before? About how during the game you can use any attack without violating the rules." Cater quoted.

"Normally it would be off with your head for using our traditions to settle personal grudges but... This is what Trey, and the others wish. I'll turn a blind eye this once." Riddle said.

"I understand how you must be feeling. However, I'm not sure whether or not Savanaclaw can be in a tournament like this. Especially you, Mr. Kingscholar can you even stand right now?" Crowley threw a question, as Leona let out a laugh.

"Hmm... Hmph, hahahahaha!! Don't underestimate me, Crowley." Leona smirked, "I could take on some wounded herbivores in my sleep."

"Those are big words," Jamil said to Leona.

"I have zero intention of apologizing. If that's what you want, then force me to be on the field." Leona answered.

"There you have it, Headmaster. Are you alright with this?" Trey asked the headmaster.

"My goodness. I'm the fool for thinking you would have some impressive speech prepared." Crowley said under his breath, "Alright. I shall allow Savanaclaw to play in the tournament as planned. As the headmaster, I'd also like to avoid having something like this be broadcast to the world on the day of the tournament."

"He's a bad guy!" Olivia appeared in the sense, with a bit of wound.

"Adults have it rough!" Y/n sighed. Crowley clean his throat before he could speak again.

"Well then, the audience is waiting for all the players to present themselves. Better get ready."

"I should get going... Grr crap, ow..." Leona hissed in pain.

"... Just so you know, I haven't forgiven you or anything," Ruggie said while facing Leona.

"Is that so?" Leona mumbled.

"But... how to put this?" Ruggie stopped for a minute to think through his thought, "I never want to see you make a miserable face like that again. The arrogant smirk you usually have suits you much better. ...Like this!" Ruggie cast his unique magic.

["Laugh With Me!"]

"Oww owow! Wah dah hell, Raffie! (What the hell, Ruggie)" Leona said to Ruggie.

"Shishishi! Ay, awayz whated to traye dis onse oh nyou! (I always wanted to try this once on you!)" Ruggie laughed, as he controlled Leona's moment by making him smile.

"Stahp righ nahw! (Stop right now!)" Leona clamor.

"What are you doing?... Heh." Jack asked follow by a light smile.

"He smiled!" Y/n questioned.

"Ooooh, I'm taking a pic of this." Olivia quickly transforms into her human as the ghost camera is in her hand, then took a picture of them. "That's a keeper!!" 

"I'm not smiling or anything." Jack stuttered, "You guys really came through for us. Thanks to you I can give it my all too."

"From here on out we're rivals. We won't pull any punches." Riddle said to Jack.

"Wouldn't have it any other way," Jack answered smiling.
