3rd POV:
"I did it, Leona-san...! Did you see it on the broadcast?" Ruggie panted out.

"Yeah, you did great, Ruggie. Good riddance, Malleus and Raijin. I'll be taking the throne this year." Leona said proudly.

"Hehe. Long live the King! Shishishi!" Ruggie snickered.

"Long live the King!! Whoo~!!"

"I feel like we've heard enough." Riddle interrupted.

"!?"

"Oh? What's everyone from Heartslabyul doing here? I see you've got our 1st year with you, too. Did you transfer to Heartslabyul, huh?" Leona questioned.

"I just don't want to stand by your side today!" Jack replied.

"You traitor!" Leona shouted.

An act that tarnishes tradition. As Heartslabyul's Prefect whose motto is "austerity," I cannot let this act slide."Riddle explained.

"Hey, little master. Can you play your heroes of justice game over there?" Leona asked.

"Are you all drunk or something? Coming all the way here with your friends just to spy on the enemy?" Ruggie added.

"Should we teach them a lesson, Leona-san?"

"Hmph, play with them a little." Leona answered.

"Off with your head!" Riddle said ending the battle.

"H-he's strong...!"

"Prefects are no joke..."

"Hmph, all bark and no bite. Ace, Deuce, can you still do more?" Riddle asked.

"We're in perfect condition." Ace stated.

"Of course!" Deuce added.

"Tch, these guys don't stand a chance against Riddle." Leona mustered up.

"Shishishi! Even if you do this, it's already too late to help Diasomnia!" Ruggie explained.

"Pray tell, I am quite interested in that story." Lilia popped out of nowhere.

"Who said they were too late?" Sebek added.

"As you can see, us Diasomnia players are safe and sound. And it's all thanks to them." Silver stated.

"Eh, what!? You guys should've been swallowed by the crowd a while ago...!" Ruggie stuttered out.

"Too bad~! Those were all my clones that I dressed up to look like them~!" Cater explained.

"What did you say?" Leona asked not believing what he just heard.

"I've always admired Diasomnia's dorm uniform, y'know~? I'm so lucky I got to try them on~ I'll upload it later~" Cater said.

"Dear me. You should have just said so, and I would have lent you mine." Lilia graciously gifted.

"Hm... Lilia-chan's clothes might not fit me..." Cater sweatdropped.

"Hey, what's going on?" Leona demanded to know.

"I've heard of your plan from Riddle, and we decided to put on a little act." Lilia explained.

"Th-then, Malleus and Raijin-kun is..." Ruggie stuttered.

"They are safe, of course! And all the spectators were safely released using magic. You better be grateful!"

"I-is that even possible!?" Ruggie said in disbelief.

"Of course it is possible, there is a high level mage and a demi-god so anything is possible here."

"Took you long enough to get here, Raijin-san."

"Geez. Sorry bat dad for my late intrusion but at least I'm here now."

"...Ah, I'm done." Leona said.

"Eh?" Ruggie said.

"I give up." Leona said bluntly.

"Wai-Leona-san... What do you mean...?" Ruggie questioned.

"Idiot. If Malleus and Raijin is gonna play in perfect condition, we have no chance of winning. There's no point in playing now. I'm gonna sit this one out." Leona said.

"N-no way...! Malleus and Raijin-kun aside, I did what you said and injured all those players... And yet... You said you won't play. I doubt we'd even place at all now... What's going to happen to our dreams now...?" Ruggie tried to convince Leona.

"No matter how much of the world watches, in the end it's just a students' game. You guys just got delusional about that dream and I just played along." Leona said.

"Why...? Weren't we going to overturn the world...?" Ruggie stated.

"Ah, stop nagging... Then, let me tell you the truth. You are a hyena raised in the trashy slums and I'm the loathed second prince who will never be king! No matter what we do, the world won't be overturned!" Leona explained.

"Wh-what the hell!? Don't mess with me! We did all this and now you're giving up!?" Ruggie yelped.

"That's going too far, Leona-san!"

"We're gonna have you play even if we have to drag you there!"

"Ah, you're so irritating... Shut up, you imbeciles!" Leona yelled in frustration.
