“I Cannot Afford to Be Careless”

Interior Hallway
Ghost A Ghost A	CHAAAAAAARGE!
Riddle Riddle	As if I would allow that!
Ghost A Ghost A	GRAAAAAAAAAAH!
Riddle Riddle	…With that one, that makes 362 down. Shouldn’t you all realize by now? As long as I am here, no matter how many times you come at me, you shall not pass.
Ghost B Ghost B	Wh-What’s with this guy!? He’s tiny, but he’s built like a monster!
Riddle Riddle	I don’t want to be called a “monster” by a ghost. But also… Did you just call me “tiny”?
Ghost B Ghost B	Eeek!? Wh-What is with that piercing glare…!?
Ghost C Ghost C	Heeey, I’m here to back you up!
Ghost B Ghost B	Th-Thank goodness…
Riddle Riddle	Reinforcements, I see… Looks like there’s about 50 of you.
Ghost B Ghost B	We have no choice but to attack all at once! If we don’t, we’ll never get past him.
Ghost C Ghost C	Yeah!
Riddle Riddle	Urk… Coming at me at the same time with that many!? If I don’t stop them here, it will spell danger for Ace and the others… But, with this many, even for me, it’ll be…
[slip]
Riddle Riddle	…Hm? Something fell out of my clothes… This is… a rose petal? Right… From that time…
Heartslabyul Dorm – Rose Maze
[snip!]
Riddle Riddle	Even though the rose trees needed to be pruned by the end of today in accordance with the Queen of Hearts’ rules… Thanks to the phantom bride fiasco, it hasn’t been finished at all! It even has gotten to the point where I’m the one pruning the roses, despite my busy schedule as Dorm Leader…!
[snip!]
Riddle Riddle	I can’t believe they allowed themselves to get caught so easily by the ghost. Once they return, it’ll be off with both Trey and Cater’s heads!
[snip!]
Malleus Malleus	That is quite the ominous talk.
Riddle Riddle	…! Well, well, Malleus-senpai. What can I do for the Diasomnia dorm leader? You haven’t come to frost the flowers, have you? Poor things, the roses are terrified.
Malleus Malleus	Frost the flowers…? Ah, as the Thorn Fairy did once. Rest assured. I haven’t made my way here for that purpose. I simply came here today to thank you, Rosehearts.
Riddle Riddle	Thank me? For what purpose?
Malleus Malleus	You are to rescue both Shroud and the others who were captured, correct? That number includes my retainers Lilia and Sebek, after all.
Riddle Riddle	I see… However, there is no need to thank me. I am not rescuing Lilia-senpai or Sebek for your sake. As the Dorm Leader of Heartslabyul, I must swiftly take action when the school is in a state of emergency, and… I will do my utmost to resolve the issue. It’s only natural.
Malleus Malleus	You’re quite well-rounded for one who is still only a babe.
Riddle Riddle	Do you know of “noblesse oblige”?
Malleus Malleus	Yes, I am familiar.
Riddle Riddle	It is a way of thinking that has been a part of the Queendom of Roses for a very long time. “Those who have the status and power have an obligation to help those that are less fortunate.” I am only following that principle.
Malleus Malleus	I see… However, I feel my ears are burning. Certainly, in your eyes, you must see me as unbefitting of a leader.
Riddle Riddle	No, I do not think that at all. Before considering your status as Diasomnia’s Dorm Leader, you are a prince. I am sure there are circumstances that prevent you from going to rescue your subjects even if you wished to.
Malleus Malleus	…
Riddle Riddle	Well, regardless, while I may be an eldest son, I come from an ordinary family. Although, I am too short and not at all what the princess is hoping for!
Malleus Malleus	Heh… Well, it seems my fears were unfounded.

Heartslabyul Dorm – Rose Maze
Malleus Malleus	Well, it seems my fears were unfounded.
Riddle Riddle	…What are you saying, all of a sudden?
Malleus Malleus	I will be the next lord of Briar Valley. Just as you surmised, I cannot recklessly court someone even if it were under false pretenses. That is why Lilia and Sebek participated in my stead, but… The outcome was as you witnessed. It’s my deepest regret that I cannot personally rescue my retainers who were captured instead of me.
Riddle Riddle	I see. And so, you’ve come here to provide guidance on how to successfully carry out the rescue mission? You must not seem to think of me as someone to rely on, Malleus-senpai.
Malleus Malleus	Come now, do not take offense. I told you, did I not, that my fears were unfounded? Your concern for your subjects, and your determination as their leader is quite apparent. And while you may not have had royal training, you certainly have the makings of a king.
Riddle Riddle	Malleus-senpai…
Malleus Malleus	…However, there is room for improvement in your appearance. You are not lacking in grace or elegance, yet you require more poise. If you wish to be acknowledged by a princess, it would behoove you to have some kind of distinction.
Riddle Riddle	As I said earlier, I am no noble. I have no medals or decorations to show my status.
Malleus Malleus	Rosehearts. Will you give me one of the roses you have pruned?
Riddle Riddle	I don’t mind, but… What will you use it for?
Malleus Malleus	I will do this.
[pin]
Malleus Malleus	Despite being a mere rose, while pinned to your chest, it exudes more prestige than any old medal.
Riddle Riddle	Malleus-senpai…
Malleus Malleus	If you are the king of this rose garden, then just like this rose… Be strong and noble.
Riddle Riddle	…If a genuine prince is advising me so, I suppose I cannot afford to be careless. I swear on this rose, that I will absolutely succeed in my mission to save all the captured students. Please rest and have some tea in the meantime.
Riddle Riddle	That’s right… I made a promise then… Malleus-senpai truly did wish to come, but he entrusted the rescue of his subjects to me. And yet, I dared to give up just now? That’s unforgivable… Do you understand, Riddle Rosehearts?
Riddle Riddle	It is my mission to defend this place until my last breath. I won’t allow a single one of you to pass!
Ghost B Ghost B	Th-This guy’s not waverin’ at all, even though we’re all coming at him at once!?
Riddle Riddle	Of course not! Because I am―
Diasomnia Dorm – Lounge
Silver Silver	Will it really be alright not going to save Father or Sebek…?
Malleus Malleus	There will be no issues. Rosehearts has made his way towards the main building. While we wait and drink some tea, I’m certain Lilia and the others will return soon.
Silver Silver	It’s true that Riddle is a talented mage… You’ve placed all your trust in him, I see.
Malleus Malleus	Trust…? I am only stating the facts. After all, he is―
Riddle Riddle	THE KING OF HEARTSLABYUL!!!
