     "He's a student now?" Sebek asked the demoness while Luke is eat an ice cream sandwich behind her. She nodded, "He is. I managed to convince the Headmaster with some underhanded methods," she replied.

     "You better cheer for us, (Name)," Horn-san told her, grabbing her hands. "Of course, don't worry," she assured.

Luke and (Name) sat on the sidelines as they waited for Professor Trein to finish his announcement, just then the host introduced the first team to play for the opening tournament. Ramshackle/Heartslabyul (Yuu, Grim, Deuce, Ace, and the ghosts) VS Savanaclaw are the candidates...

     "Go, go!" Luke cheered, raising his hands to cheer for the Ramshackle students. *Beep* "Yuu will get hit later. It's your choice if you want to catch him," the unknown sender told her.

     'What is their deal this time?' She asked herself, looking at the message. Everyone in Diasomnia is rooting for the Ramshackle students, "(Name)! You should cheer, too!" Luke tugged the demoness's skirt.

Deuce was shaking in fear because he saw the camera focusing on him, while Ruggie laughed because he was worried about the wrong thing. The first disk was for the Ramshackle team with Yuu having it and the others focusing on defense...

They were gonna shoot the disk, but Jack appeared and stole the disk from them, throwing it to Leona who shot it to their goal. Everyone cheered in Savanaclaw, making a chant. The next disk is for the Savanaclaw dorm, but they didn't notice the small cat chasing behind them and he stole the disk from their hand...

     "Go, Grim!" Luke yelled. With a loud cheer, the cat managed to put the disk to their goal, "Good job!"

Leona smirked since they managed to take a point—amazed by it. Ace and Deuce gave a high five since they managed and the whistle was blown, the disk for the Ramshackle students...

     "I'll show you my super cool shoot!" Grim yelled as he received the disk from one of the ghosts.

Great Grim Hurricane!

Instead of shooting the goal, the disk went in Yuu's direction—making the demoness stand up from where she is. Within a blink of an eye, Yuu's head got hit by the disk, causing him to lose balance off his broom. The demoness appeared in the middle of the field, catching the unconscious dorm leader of Ramshackle...

     "Time out," she told the referee. Everyone gasped as they a girl wearing the Diasomnia dorm uniform, even the host, "It's the infamous (Name) of Diasomnia! How fascinating that she saved the dorm leader of Ramshackle!" The host exclaimed.

She didn't mind the awes and gasps from the crowd and exited the field to go to the school's infirmary. Malleus watched the scene, feeling jealous of the scene he just witnessed. Lilia laughed at the prince's scary expression, aware that he was jealous...

- Infirmary, after the tournament -

The demoness was healing Ruggie's arm, her hands glowing in a blinding lime color. Leona was sleeping beside him, while the first years are gathered around Yuu's unconscious body...

     "You've been here ever since Yuu got here, (Name). You missed Diasomnia's play," Luke murmured as he watched the demoness heal Hyena's wound. She chuckled, "I don't think they need my presence among the crowd. They're already capable," she told the angel.
