'Where darkness lives, a new hope appears, and he who is called the son of the night will drive away the evil powers. The wings will raise their eternal call, will open the door of the gate, and the truth will use the light of the rays. But who will...
Walking towards the school, Grim and M/N went out to the Main Street, on both sides there were statues of various people.
"Uwaaaah ~ Amazing. So this is Main Street. "Grim said, admiring all the statues.
"I didn't get a good look yesterday but what's with these statues? All seven of them look pretty scary..." Grim said, shivering a little.
"This granny looks especially snobby." Grim said, pointing to the woman who was wearing dresses and holding a scepter with a heart in her hand.
"You don't know about the Queen of Hearts?" An unfamiliar voice asked Grim.
"Queen of Hearts? Is she important?" Asked Grim as he was lying on M/N's head. The boy turned to see who he was talking to. Apparently it was a student from one of the other dorms.

The young man had short cherry hair, red eyes, one of them was painted with a set of paint and he looked like he was the same age as M/N. He was quite handsome and sweet but M/N would not say aloud...
"In the past, she was the queen who lived in the Rose Maze.She was someone who valued rules and discipline above all, strict in all things from the march of the Card Soldiers to the color of rose bushes.It was a land of madness where all submit to her rule.Why you ask? Because or else it was off with your head! "Said the stranger, talking about the statue of the Queen of Hearts.
"That's terrifying! "Grim said with a terrified expression.
"It's cool! I like it." The mystery guy commented, staring at the statue. "Nobody would listen to a queen who's just nice all the time, right?" He inquired.
"I suppose. A strong leader is better." Grim said after hesitating. "By the way, who are you?" He asked the stranger.
"I'm Ace, a fresh-faced first year. Nice to meetcha ~" Ace introduced himself, making M/N chuckle. "Nice to meet you Ace ~" M/N said winking at the boy, making Ace he looked at him with surprise and a blush on his face.
"I am Grim, a genius who'll become the greatest magician." He said proudly, Grim, "The dimwit over here is M/N. He is my henchmen."
"I'm M/N Nightwing, the new leader of Ramshackle Dorm, nice to meet you again, "M/N said, giving Ace a radiant smile.
"Hey, Ace. The lion over here with the scar, are they famous?" Asked Grim, pointing to another statue.
"Of course! This is the King of Beast who rules the Savanna. However, he was not born to be king, but he took the throne through effort and elaborate planning. After becoming king, he even allowed the loathed hyenas to live in his kingdom with discrimination. " Ace explained.
"Ooooh. I guess he was a rock not held captive by his status! Who's the lady with octopus legs? "Grim said, wanting to know more about the other statues.
"The Sea Witch who lives in a cavern in the deep.Her purpose was to help all unfortunate merfolk. As long as you could pay the price, she could transform you, help you find love, anything.If it was within her power, there wasn't anything she wouldn't do. They say her prices were pretty high, though. That's what it costs for 'anything' "Ace said.
"Nyaaa-ha!So what you're saying is that I can get rich if I become a great magician!?!Then, what about this man in the big hat?"Grim ask again.
"The Sorcerer of the Sand.He was a cunning cabinet minister to a foolish sultan and saw through the fake prince that was actually a street rat trying to deceive the princess.Then he got a magic lamp and became the most powerful sorcerer of all! With that power, they say, he became sultan. " Ace explained once again.
"Ho hoh! So it is important for magicians to be the center of attention!Oooh! This lady sure is beautiful!"
"She is the Beautiful Queen.Everyday, she checked the "Beauty Ranking" in her magic Mirror.And when it looked like she might fall from the number one spot, she never hesitated to do anything to get it back.I guess she had the strong will to remain the most beautiful in the world? So impressive..They say she was even adept at making poisons."
"She's prett ... but.... no thanks..." Grim said, not sounding enthusiastic.
"You think? But it's cool that she has something she'll never give up."Ace said looking at the M/N,who was looking at the statue, Grim noticed that Ace was staring at M/N for too long and his tail slapped him on the head.
"S-sure, that single-minded drive is pretty cool. Over there, what's the guy on fire? Just looking gives me goosebumps." Grim said pointing to the man who had flames instead of hair.
"He's the Lord of the Underworld! He rules a land crawling with evil spirit on his own. No doubt he is extremely skilled.Even though he's got a scary face, he did that detestable job without ever taking a vacation and his sincerity won over Cerberus, the Hydra, even the Titans, to fight for him." Ace said.
"Hmmm, Hmmm. So having talent doesn't mean you get to be haughty. And the last one, with the horns?" Asked Grim, pointing to the last statue.
"That is the Witch of Thorns from the Magic Mountains.Noble and elegant, even within the Seven, she is top class in magic and curses! She can summon lightning and storms, cover an entire country in thorns, her magic is on a whole other level.There was even a time she transformed into a huge dragon! "Ace said, he sounds enthusiastic.
"Oooh! A dragon! All monsters look up to them!" Grim said, not noticing how M/N smiled at the news.
They're all so cool ~"Said Ace, and moments later he added,"... Unlike a certain raccoon."
At this point, M/N bursts out laughing and holding Grim from murdering Ace. Clearly, everyone will consider Grim a raccoon.
