Octavinelle arc: starting...

"-the dorm based on the Sea Witch's spirit of benevolence"

Obtained Luke's SSR Dorm Uniform "Tarts!"

"Ah, so many tarts!"

Obtained Barbatos's SSR Headmistress "For I am gracious."

"I look funny, don't I?"

- Mirror Chamber -

     "Just go in front of the mirror to get you sorted," the Headmaster told the shaking Luke, motioning him to face the Dark Mirror. The butler was standing guard on the door to prevent unnecessary visits, "Say your name, loud and clear."

State thy name...

     "Luke," the angel stammered as the white mask in the Dark Mirror scrunched his face. He's analyzing the soul within the angel, "You're so scary... Can't believe masks can talk now..." He whispered to himself.

Your soul... I don't see any impurities, are you perhaps an angel?

The shape and color are truly fascinating...

Stubborn, but you're wise...

I assign you to... HEARTSLABYUL!

The demoness clapped her hands once the Dark Mirror vanished again with Luke sighing in relief. He ran towards the demoness, hugging her. The Headmaster gave the angel his dorm uniform and school uniform, so he can attend classes first thing in the morning...

- Heartslabyul Dorm, Lounge -

     "I entrust my child's safety in your care, Riddle-san," the demoness told the dorm leader. "Luke, come on. You should greet your dorm leader—"

     "I want to stay with you in Diasomnia!" He yelled while hiding in her coat. Riddle and Trey chuckled while watching the angel try to avoid the demoness's hands, "Luke, don't give me that attitude. They're not gonna hurt you and I promise I'll let you stay in my room once my problem is solved," she assured.

     Trey knelt at Luke's height, "Don't worry, kiddo. I'll take care of you and we can bake together if we're gonna have an Unbirthday Party," he patted the angel's head. (Name) smiled at Trey, "Thank you for assuring him. I'll be responsible if he breaks any rules."

     Riddle cleared his throat, "No need, (Name)-san. I made a pamphlet of the rules for him to follow," he gave Luke the small pamphlet. "Now, Luke, please follow me. We'll take you to your dorm room," the dorm leader of Heartslabyul took Luke's hand.

She waved goodbye to the angel as Trey took the bags from her hand. Once she left the dorm, she took a handkerchief and covered her nose, sobbing that her child is a grown-up now...

Yuu was inside a different dream this time, a terrifying storm and a sinking ship in the sea. He could see a small boat near the sinking ship, with a dog still stuck in the ship—he was in the body of a black-haired male and he was not able to control the body...

The black-haired male jumped into the sea, swimming back to get the dog in the ship. The fire in the ship is worsening, causing the male to tell the dog to jump in his arms. Once the dog jumped, he immediately ran back to the small boat, but unfortunately, he fell on a crack...

     "Eric!" The old man in the boat called for the male as he took the dog. Eric was stuck, but before he could know it—the gunpowder in the ship exploded and it caused Yuu's soul to vanish in Eric's body—then he saw a red-haired mermaid.

She was trying to find Eric and swam towards his body. She swam to the shore, holding the unconscious Eric with her...

     "Is he dead?" The mermaid asked the seagull, who opened one of Eric's eyes. "It's hard to say," he told her—then he went to place his ear on Eric's foot—"Oh, dear... I can't hear a heartbeat."

     Eric sighed, gaining consciousness, "No, look! He's breathing!" She exclaimed in delight. She observed his facade, "He's so beautiful..."

What would I give to live where you are?

Would I pay to stay here beside you?

What do I do to see you smiling at me?

Where will we walk? Where will we run? If we could stay all day in the sun!

Just you and me...

And I could be part of your world...

Eric woke up from his dog's licking, with his butler glad that he was still alive. He told his butler that a girl saved him, a girl with a beautiful voice and she was singing. The butler didn't believe him and went to escort the injured prince back to the palace with the dog...

     "We just wanna forget the whole thing that happened. The Sea King will never know—You won't tell him, I won't tell him. I will stay in one piece," the crab said.

I don't know when. I don't know how, but I know something starting right now...

Watch and you'll see someday I'll be part of your world

Before the dream could end right there, Yuu saw two eels on the other side of the sea with glowing yellow eyes and watched the mermaid sing. They were laughing at her...

- Ramshackle Dorm, Yuu's room -

     'What a stormy dream...' Yuu thought as he woke up from his slumber. Grim was already awake or rather he didn't sleep too long, "Good morning, Grim," he greeted.

     The cat suddenly went irritated, "Don't call me out of blue, Yuu! I forgot what I was memorizing because of you and don't forget today's the first day of exams!" Grim yelled at Yuu, who was surprised that this cat is trying so hard. "We're one student, so you better not hold me back!" He reminded.

     Yuu just shrugged, "Yeah, yeah. I don't want to hear that coming from you."
