Then, let our meeting about the October Inter-Dorm Magical Shift Tournament commence.
First, Octavinelle Dorm's Mr. Ashengrotto has an announcement as the manager for the tournament. | |
Azul  |
I'm Azul Ashengrotto, the tournament manager. Thank you for your time.
To begin, for the installation of food stalls around the coliseum venue, all slots for both external enterprises and internal club activities have been filled. | |
Kalim  |
Oh! Very nice! It's going to be super lively. | |
Azul |
Royal guests from every country have all been sent their invitations. General attendance tickets are also selling well.
And applications from TV stations and newspapers are coming in like they do every year. | |
Kalim |
This tournament is a big deal world wide.
I got super excited for my invitation every year before I came here. Since you're royalty, you would've gotten one too, right, Leona? Maybe we passed by each other when we were little. | |
Leona  |
...Who knows. I don't care. | |
Vil  |
I have to make sure my foundation is in perfect form for the jumbotron.
Physical activity means I have to spend that much more time fixing it. | |
Riddle  |
Huh... Pomefiore is the only dorm to take timeouts to fix their makeup. | |
Idia  |
How can you all be so proactive about being in front of a bunch of people? Just thinking about it makes me wanna vomit. | |
Azul |
Ahem! Everyone, quiet please. | |
Kalim |
Ah, sorry 'bout that. | |
Azul |
As soon as every dorm has decided on their player line up, please make sure to submit all the paperwork. If the paperwork is late by even a day... | |
Riddle |
You'll be disqualified, correct? | |
Azul |
No. I will accept a special processing fee. An express delivery fee, if you will. | |
Riddle |
Huh... I think making a rule for exceptions like that is in bad form. | |
Kalim |
Hahaha! I'm grateful for it though! | |
Crowley |
We're getting very off track.
As for the tournament bracket...I'd like to share an idea. | |
Riddle |
Idea? | |
Crowley |
Starting from this tournament, I'd like the dorm head of Diasomnia...
Malleus Draconia, to be inducted into the hall of fame at this time. | |
Kalim |
Eeh!? | |
Leona |
...What's the meaning of this? | |
Crowley |
Since Mr. Draconia entered this school, all dorms that have played against Diasomnia have been crushed without scoring a single point.
Diasomnia scored over 100 points, more than 90 percent of which were by him. | |
Kalim |
True. When we played them last year we couldn't make a single move. | |
Idia |
He's an unparalleled cheat character that completely destroys the game's balance. | |
Crowley |
This tournament isn't for mere pleasure.
In order to discover the next generation of talent, the world pays attention. Regardless of that, no matter who their opponent is, any match against Diasomnia is over before even their own players can strut their stuff. This is an extraordinary exception. | |
Idia |
Aah, I get it. I wither after seeing this development over and over. | |
Crowley |
To the dorm with many members aiming to join a magical shift pro league, Savanaclaw.
Savanaclaw is a dorm with a history of victories and has never once been below the top three. Even still, you have lost to Diasomnia in the opening match of the past two tournaments. This won't leave a strong impression on any scout. And it won't allow for anyone to become a pro. | |
Leona |
...So you're saying that we're just going to get owned again this year? | |
Crowley |
I'm not saying it because it pleases me.
Anyway, I have already received Mr. Draconia's consent on the matter. All that's left is your approval as dorm heads. | |
Leona |
Ha, you've underestimated us... Teach.
The thing I hate most in this world is being told, "You will never be number one." | |
Crowley |
That's not what I'm saying... | |
Leona |
Then what are you saying?
First, in magift, it's not about throwing around physical strength. It's about using your head. | |
Kalim |
I don't think I could beat Malleus in a battle of wits either. | |
Leona |
Hmph, for you, sure. But not me.
Sure, no one is ever going to beat him in a battle of brawn, but brains should be different. | |
Azul |
Ooh? | |
Leona |
The King of Beasts took his place as king through hard work and wisdom.
Put that thing between your ears to work. Come up with a way to beat that monster! I bet the whole world would admire whichever team did that. Are you really going to pass up a once in a lifetime opportunity? | |
Vil |
Even you say smart things sometimes. I also think your idea is nonsense, Headmaster.
Excluding those with talent. Isn't that just your unconscious bias showing? I hate things like that. | |
Riddle |
I agree with Vil on this.
Also, as a wizard, I have no intention of throwing in the towel before the battle has even begun. | |
Leona |
I want the whole world to see that aloof bastard's face contort in frustration.
Just thinking about it, I could start humming. Y'know? | |
Azul |
Fu fu. Imagine how high the ratings would be. | |
Kalim |
Mmhmm mmhmm. We shouldn't exclude others. | |
Idia |
Eh, what's happening here? Am I the only one who thinks letting him in the hall of fame is fine? | |
Leona |
There you have it, teach. We won't be letting Malleus in the hall of fame. | |
Crowley |
My goodness... Fine, understood.
However, if the same situation occurs this year, he will be entered into the hall of fame next year. | |
Leona |
Do whatever you want. | |
Azul |
That brings us to the end of today's meeting. Everyone, please don't forget to turn in your paperwork.
I myself don't mind if you forget though... Fufufu. | |
Vil |
By the way, today's dorm head meeting... Did we forget to tell Malleus about it again? | |
| All | Ah! | |

| Heartslabyul Resident A | It's almost time to decide who's playing in the magical shift tournament, huh. | |
| Heartslabyul Resident B | Have you thought of any spells to appeal to the dorm head? | |
| Heartslabyul Resident A | Of course I did! I showed it to Mr. Crewel earlier and got his approval.
I'm excited to show it too... Ah whoooaaa!!! Oooww... crap it hurts! | |
| Heartslabyul Resident B | H-hey! Why are you jumping around on the stairs all of the sudden? | |
| Heartslabyul Resident A | My leg... hurts...! | |
| Heartslabyul Resident B | What!? Let's get you to the infirmary! | |
| ??? | Shishishishishi~♪ | |
