Before the start of the match, Crowley politely asks Riddle to remove the collars on Ace and Deuce. Riddle obliges and they express relief, until Riddle reminds them to savor their short-lived freedom while it lasts. Ace and Deuce are certain that they are serious, causing Riddle to ask Deuce about the ridiculous helmet he has on. Deuce claims it will help boost his defense, and his weird getup confuses their dorm leader, until Yuuken points out that he was the one who gave it to Deuce. Swordsmen wear masks when facing each other in combat. Cater reminds Riddle that it's almost tea time and asks him what he plans on doing. Riddle says they will proceed as scheduled, they have to follow the rules without delay. Crowley starts the match by dropping a mirror to the ground, it shatters to signify the match has began. Within seconds Riddle defeats Ace and Deuce and uses his unique magic to collar them again.

Ace and Deuce are perplexed by his strength when Crowley explains that a magic-user gets stronger with a powerful imagination. According to him, Riddle has refined his magic a great deal. Before Riddle leaves, he criticizes Ace and Deuce for challenging him even though they aren't strong enough to defeat him. Following the rules are right, just as his mother taught him. He goes as far as to mock Ace and Deuce's education, how they were born to parents who can't use magic and how uncivilized they were before enrolling. This results in Deuce feeling very offended and Ace punches Riddle in the face in rage. Everyone is shocked by Ace's actions and Trey and Cater worriedly run to Riddle's side. Ace says to Riddle that being the leader, nor does the duel matter anymore. He shouldn't speak that way about others parents. Children aren't their parents' trophies, and their success doesn't determine their parent's worth. This wasn't his parents fault, but his because he wasn't able to make any friends who would tell him off for acting out of line like this. Riddle is confused and asks Ace how he knows about his past. Ace reveals that Trey told them, and he realized that Riddle was treated badly by his strict mother. He wasn't able to think for himself, he's nothing more than a baby who is good at magic.

Ace's words to Riddle results in his magic becoming more corrupted as more drop of blots appears on his magic gem. Riddle angrily tells Ace that he doesn't know anything about him. Ace coldly responds that he's right, but that doesn't mean he will go easy on him. Riddle, still in denial, refuses to believe his mother could be wrong, so he's in the right. Suddenly, someone throws an egg at Riddle, and to their surprise they discover that it was one of the Heartslabyul members who had enough of Riddle's controlling and tyrant behavior. More and more of them begin to yell at him about how they are tired of following his rules. They express their anger and hatred towards Riddle by throwing random objects at him. Crowley tries to stop them but they refuse to listen, leading Yuuken to cry out loud enough to catch their attention as he shields Riddle. He criticizes people who heckle players on the field by throwing things at them and calls them shameful. He tells them if they carry on with this discourtesy, he will be their opponent instead. He turns to ask Riddle if he is alright, only to realize he looks very angry.
