Deuce  |
We really managed to get the guests out without injuring them… | |
Ace  |
*sigh* The pains in the butt are finally gone. I was seriously afraid things were gonna keep going south from there… | |
Cater  |
What on earth happened here? | |
Trey  |
Well… | |
Riddle  |
Those rulebreakers decided they would pluck the magic flowers that have been so carefully grown in the flowerbeds here!
"These flowers are so pretty. Let's put one in our hair and take a selfie for Magicam," they said. What a ridiculous reason… These are precious plants grown for the purposes of making potions. Do they think they're just here for no reason? What's worse… …they broke the Laws of the Queen of Hearts, No. 228 "Flowers must not be picked from the garden on Wednesdays." This is a serious offense! | |
Ace |
It's not like I'm agreeing with the fact that picking some random flowers that aren't even yours isn't stupid, but…
…you gotta realize that your way of bringing it up wasn't great, either. How's a visitor supposed to know what the Laws of the Queen of Hearts are? | |
Riddle |
Excuse me?! The Queen of Hearts is one of the Great Seven.
Even if they don't know all 810 laws, regular people should at least know around 100 of them! | |
Cater |
I-I think even that's asking a bit much… | |
Deuce |
(small)I haven't even learned up to rule 100 yet…(small) | |
Ace |
Well, you see how the dorm head is.
The guests found it funny, which made him angrier, and they found that even funnier. It was just a vicious cycle. | |
Trey |
He really was trying his best to be patient given we were dealing with guests to the school.
But, it's just… as you'd expect, a bunch of visitors who refuse to listen aren't exactly a great match for someone as straightlaced as him. | |
Cater |
Mm, I see now. That must have been tough, Riddle. | |
Riddle |
I apologize. I really made a mess of all that. Thank you all for stopping me. | |
Deuce |
Still, what were they even thinking?
Do you know what's going on here, Cater? And what was that you said about some… security system? | |
Cater |
To tell you the truth, the professors had a little squabble with some visitors a bit ago… | |
Deuce |
I see… So there are Magicam Monsters with only Magicam on their minds going rampant everywhere. | |
Riddle |
It's an apt name for them. I'm sure that name will spread to the other dorms in due time. | |
Ace |
Didn't think there were idiots so slow on the uptake they'd completely ignore the teachers warning them. It's not like they're exactly pushovers. | |
Riddle |
This wasn't in the plan. I imagine the professors were just as flustered. | |
Cater |
Well…
It might be a bit late for me to be saying this now, but I thought it might turn out like this. | |
| All | Huh? | |
Cater |
There are quite a lot of Magicammers out there who are so desperate for likes, they'll do things that they shouldn't be doing.
Night Raven College is literally trending as a place to get great Halloween pictures. It's kinda natural to assume that there'd be those kinds of troublemakers in the mix. | |
Deuce |
Y-You're kidding… There are really people out there who'll cause people trouble just for likes?! And they don't even care?! | |
Cater |
Honestly, I think a lot of them are just so desperate to find their own sense of fun that they don't even realize how much trouble they're causing ♪
A lot of them have come all this way, despite how super inconvenient it is to travel here, right? It's just that their idea of how to have that fun is completely twisted. | |
Deuce |
No way… | |
Cater |
The most troublesome part of all this is… information that's already gone viral can't be stopped!
Of course, the majority of visitors really are just here because they want to enjoy Halloween, I imagine. But the number of both well-behaved visitors and Magicam Monsters are only going to increase from here. | |
Riddle |
Oh no, don't tell me the other dorms…? | |
Cater |
Yeah…
Things probably aren't going so smoothly at the rest of the venues, either. | |
