Rook  |
Bonjour, Yuu-kun! What a wonderful morning. We will start morning training today. Please head to Pomefiore’s ballroom. | |

| Pomefiore Dorm – Ballroom | ||
Deuce  |
Last night was hell… | |
Ace  |
My body aches all over thanks to sleeping on the floor… | |
Grim  |
Ugh… I’m not even a contestant, so why do I have to suffer…? | |
Epel  |
Are you all okay? | |
Kalim  |
Oh, welcome~! Good morning, guys. | |
Jamil  |
I heard that you three caused a lot of ruckus last night. Good grief… You were all lying down on the floor when I checked on you. | |
Ace |
You think I sleep on the floor for fun?! That was all ‘cause of Vil-senpai’s unique magic. | |
Jamil |
Vil-senpai’s unique magic? | |
Grim |
Yeah, it’s the kind of scary magic where he puts curses in food, yanno! | |
Kalim |
A curse in food?! | |
Grim |
He said that he did it so that we’ll watch what we eat while preparing for the VDC. It’s so scary. | |
Kalim |
I’ll probably notice if it’s poison, but I can’t say the same if it’s a curse… | |
Jamil |
Normally, a small trace of magic should be left, but… Hm… | |
Kalim |
Hm~ I guess we’ll be able to tell if we hone our skills a bit, too. | |
Jamil |
That might be a bit difficult for someone as naïve as you are. | |
Kalim |
Eh? Don’t be so mean~ We won’t know for sure until I try~! | |
Ace |
Um, Kalim-senpai… How are you so sure that you’ll notice if it’s poisoned…? | |
Kalim |
Hm? Ah, I’ve been poisoned before, actually. | |
| Deuce, Ace & Epel | Eh!? | |
Grim |
Thanks to that, I was made a poison taster during the holidays… | |
Kalim |
I heard it was an overall bad day. As a result, I always end up wondering if it’s safe to eat something, you know? But I’d rather enjoy the meal instead of suspecting the people I’m eating with. | |
Deuce |
Y-you have a point, but… | |
Kalim |
I can eat things properly when I know they’re not poisoned, too. It’d be too late if you notice right after eating, right? For me and for the other person, too. | |
Epel |
Who, exactly…? | |
Kalim |
For example, if the culprit ever feels guilty about it, they will never be able to atone if I’m dead. They know they did wrong, but they’ll never get the chance to truly say sorry… I don’t like the idea of that. | |
Jamil |
…………. | |
Kalim |
The legend of the street rat turned prince is also pretty famous back in my hometown, you know? | |
Grim |
How does a sneaky thief become a prince…? | |
| Choice 1: Can you tell us more about it? | Choice 2: (There sure are a lot of legends, huh…) | |
Kalim |
One day, the little street rat met the Princess and he fell in love. After that, he started regretting all the petty thefts and lies he made back then and had a change of heart. Next thing you know, he saved the Sultan and the Princess from an evil usurper! And then, he and the Princess got married, so he turned into the next Sultan. A happy ending, right~? I really love that story! Everyone believed in his change of heart, so he did his best to show it. | |
Deuce |
What you did in the past doesn’t matter… It’s what you do next that’s important, huh. | |
Ace |
I guess it’s a nice change since in fairy tales, bad guys usually never get redemption arcs. | |
Kalim |
Exactly! Which is why, I promised myself to live life to the fullest, too. Well, it’s certainly something I learned to live with just so I could enjoy a meal, too~ Ahaha! | |
Epel |
Kalim-san is laughing, but his story sounds so concerning… | |
Jamil |
Maybe… But I guess it’s not that bad if he can laugh about it. | |
| Choice 1: Why was such a bright and lively person like him chosen by the Mirror of Darkness…? | Choice 2: He’s completely different from all the other Prefects. | |
Grim |
True! You’re so nice it makes my ears twitch sometimes. | |
Kalim |
Eh? Did I say anything weird? | |
Epel |
Not really… But you seem to be a little different compared to the other students in our school… Maybe…? | |
Kalim |
Oh, yeah. I got to this school two months late, so I transferred in halfway. Do you think that’s got something to do with it? | |
| Deuce, Grim & Epel | WHAT?! | |
Epel |
It’s possible to transfer here…? | |
Kalim |
Is it that surprising? I mean, Yuu got a special admission, too, right? | |
| Choice 1: Well, that’s because of a lot of factors… | Choice 2: I arrived during the opening ceremony… | |
Ace |
I thought that only people the Mirror of Darkness chose itself could enter Night Raven College. | |
Kalim |
Yeah, but a month after Jamil left for school, I got my own acceptance letter. I don’t know if it was a mistake on their part or if it was something special, but the Black Carriage came to get me soon after. | |
Deuce |
Does that mean your soul was deemed worthy a little bit later…? | |
Jamil |
We don’t even know for sure if that’s the real method the Mirror of Darkness uses. (quietly) Knowing that Headmaster, he must have played with the strings a little to make special admissions for the school. (quietly) Thanks to him, my peaceful school life was disturbed. | |
Kalim |
I’m happy that I got accepted either way! I managed to be friends with Jamil again, after all! | |
Jamil |
I keep telling you that we’re not friends at all, remember…? | |
| (clap, clap!) | ||
Vil  |
Are you all here, then? | |
