Prologue part 5 - Info dump by yours truly

All according to the planning schedule, the birdman called the magicless prefect and the monster Grimm, into his office two after their regular classes the very next day. He congratulated them for the hard work they have put through for the distribution of the flyers. All thanks to the Queen of Hearts’s dorm leader, the preparations and enthusiasm for their future newcomer it would be a piece of cake.

“As requested, my henchman and I came per your demand. Now, where’s the reward?!” The little gray cat-like monster demanded rather harshly. “I won’t fall for your tricks again!” 

“Come on, Grim, this is not that bad.” Yuzuru said with a small smile on his face. 

“Before giving you the right reward for all this work, I need one small last favor. We need a good photograph to be on the first line to see the upcoming event’s fight. As per saying, I also refrain Grim from doing anything reckless. This is our only chance to have a new student from outside. I wouldn’t like any trouble on their first time arriving here.” 

“I don’t wanna look at people fighting! I want to do something physical! Interact with the crowd!” Grim protested. 

“Well, you can still help the Heartsybul with the ticket booth,” Crowley added. “I heard Mr. Diamond would be giving some tarts for free…” 

“I’M IN!!” The monster danced, overjoyed by the thought of food. 

“He got him by the stomach again.” Yuzuru thought. “Headmaster.” Crowley turned around to meet the young student behind him. “Have you got any news for a way back home?” 

“I’ve been busy with this event, even in-between minutes, seem fruitless. Don’t worry, young one; I will surely find something about it soon enough.” He encouraged. Yuzuru smiled sadly and nodded. He took Grim by the scruff and dragged him out on the headmaster’s order. 

“Prefect!” The young dorm leader turned around with Grim on his shoulder when they left Dire Crowley’s office, closing the door.

“Ace! Deuce!” They greeted them with a small smile while they slowed beside the duo with their arms full of trinkets. 

“Riddle put us into the tents building around the coliseum. We are taking care of that construction monstrosity for only a one-day event.” Ace sighed, taking a break by a corridor bench, whining. “Why is it this important all of sudden?!” 

“You sure look busy,” Grim added.

“I’d rather clean your entire dorm than build something.” Ace drawled. 

“It’s fun to build,” Deuce said unphased. 

“Says the one with the magic hands.” Carter popped with his phone. “Deuce-kun truly has the work into the body, if you know what I mean.” 

“Cater-senpai.” The prefect greeted me too. “Do you have any ideas of who will be hosting the event?” 

“Sure do!” He made his signature pose with his peace fingers, fishing out his phone. “From all I know, they come from an outside land from Twisted Wonderland. Each of them has a background of mages and they are from a well-known knight training academy.” He pauses. “Also, they are from the same land as one percilar student in Diasomnia.” 

“What’S the land’s name?” Ace questioned. “It’s not like we are this popular? What is the point of organizing a tournament for a one-day event?” 

“Well, A-kun.” Cater smiles caging the red head against the wall. “It will be the decision of the students and dorm leaders to decide which mage will make it out at the very end. “It works out as a small tournament.”

“Sounds hardcore,” Deuce said as he looked at the screen, scrolling down to look at the canditates. It was composed of females and males. There were no pictures available but most of their information of their names, professions and age. Carter closed his phone, catching the trio by surprise. 

“Alright, you two, let’s get going. We have to build the info booth on the main street. Unless you want Riddle to get you collared again.” The two first years gulped. “It was nice to see you two, Prefect, Grim. See you at the event.” 

A-Deuce apologized for the short conversation they were able to do. Yuzuru waved at them while they got pulled in the other direction; Grim was a bit more demanding than usual.

Summary: The preparations are done. The fight has finally begun. Much to the students’ surprise, someone shows more ability than others. 

Prologue part  6 -  Knights from outside (1)

One week later - Event - Coliseum

The stadium shook into an uproar with the campus students inside witnessing the fighting ranking going on. The fighters were doing their task, getting in the heat of the battle to get the exact attention they deservedé. Outside the stadium, by the exit door on the lower floor, where the Heartsybul students were taking their break. They were given their chance to witness the fight with the Ignihyde application on their cell phone.

“Deuce, look at those two.” Ace nudged his Deuce with his elbow, capturing his water bottle. “The red-head is fast to put that other knight into their place. I have to admit;that’s  impressive.” 

As spoken, the red-head knight avoided the palm from the other one, preventing a pulse point from being paralyzed. Her leg threw up for a high dropkick to dodge in time with a backflip. 

“If they keep doing this, they will never get to the last round,” Deuce added. He stole Ace’s cellphone. “I understand they have to show off their abilities for Dire Crowley and the teachers and dorm leaders to decide. But don’t you think this is a little too wild?” 

“At least, they are fair.” Ace took back the tablet, swiping the screen while looking at the hot topics taking on Magicam about the two females fighting. “According to Cater senpai, the country is really reknown for their magic wielder. They are often employed for outside activities.” He slurped his juice. 

“Deuce, Ace. Time to round up. The fight is about to end.” Trey called from the door. “Show them the way to the meal and get patched up for their next round.” The boys both hm’ed.. 

“Let’s go meet them then.” A colossal explosion made them jump when they saw the dust cloud coming out of the fighter’s entrance. The gust of wind made them shield their face from any projectile. “Okay. Nevermind. I’m not getting in.” 

“THAT WHAT CALLS THE MATCH EXPLOSIVE ENDING!” The announcer yelled into the mic. “Time for a break, lads! We will see soon in the afternoon. What will come at the end of this magical presentation?!” 

Hearing the chatting crowd soon leaving the stadium to take a break, Ace and Deuce waited for the dust to settle down. Through the dust they could see a figure walking towards them. 

“Heartslybul?” A feminine voice called. Deuce nodded.. “If you can take my colleague to the infirmary tent, she might need some rest.” It was the same red-head dragging the poor pale girl, knocked out by a bump in the head. 

SOME REST, YOU BET!? THIS GIRL IS A MONSTER! The two Heartsybul dorm students gasped at the sight. 

“Which way is the Scarabia tent?” She asked to leave the other knight in the boy’s care. The two pointed the northern path absently. 

Leona let out a yawn while he strolled between the booths aligned near the stadium. Even if he was on guard duty, he had the time to skip his round, making Ruggie go after him. The beastman noticed the increasing crowd, making him slightly more irritated. He took another alley only to come to a halt.

Leona’s eyes switched to look until a scent of magic caught his attention. The world slowed as the same red-head the two 1st years met outside the stadium passed next to him. He didn’t have the time to get the appearance yet; he lost them out of sight. Gray, faint blue and red-head. That’s all he would remember for a second. 

“Leona! Over here.” Ruggie called on the side in between the booths. “We need to get back while the crowd has left.” 

“Shut up, Ruggie.” Leona paced away from him. Ruggie looked in the same direction Leona was looking before. He shrugged it off. “I just want this to end so I can go to sleep.” 

“I did take the calmer spot of the coliseum, for that matter.” He sighed. “You should be grateful. The others are at the entrances and seats, scaring the students to stay put. Unlike Disamonia, they are directing them straight to the stadium without a map.” 

“Don’t care.” Leona replied. He dragged himself to their entranceway. “Sooner it ends, sooner we leave.” 

“Ahh… Leona.” Ruggie sighed, going after him.
