——I quickly scanned the sections about the Great Seven, specifically the Queen of Hearts. I was trying to find a book with all her rules inside of it, that way I could properly study them and counter-act the rules set in Heartslabyul.

For now though, I needed to find all the rules related to pastries, parties, and proper etiquette. I hurriedly looked at all of them until I found one wedged far in the corner: 800+ Rules of Madness and Order. Perfect.

I flipped through the pages, looking over each individual rule as fast as I could. There was all sorts of rules, most of them didn't make sense. The bell rang just as I finished the book, a quick snap of my fingers and empty flash cards appeared inside of my hands. I shut the book and shoved it into my schoolbag, panicking as I ran to my first class.





"Ah. You must be my new homeroom students.
Hm, that's quite the unusual coat of fur. Do make sure that you arrive properly groomed." He commented as he saw my messy appearance. "Apologies." I stated, rushing to my seat, which was the only empty one. He flashed me a smile.

"My name is Divus Crewel. You may call me Master Crewel. Now, take your seats. Class is about to begin. We're going to start with the basics. And by that, I mean beating the names and distinguishing characteristics of one hundred herbs and poisons into your tiny brains." Woah, one hundred!?

"The mycelia are another matter. But eventually, I'm hopeful you'll be able to take a walk without putting anything poisonous into your gaping maws. For now, I realize you have all the self-control of voracious hounds. But I will not abide a single student failing this class. Expect to be drilled accordingly." He stated, smacking a baton against his open palm. How kinky.

"Huh. So... does anyone know what a mycelia is?" Deuce asked Ace and I. "Just think of mushrooms." I sighed. "I've never been one for like, memorizing what things are, ya know?" Ace nervously chuckled. "All I care about is how to tell the yummy plants from the yucky ones." Grim mused, he was already drooling. Gross.

——"I am your History of Magic teacher, Mozus Trein. And this is my familiar, Lucius. You are here to learn the rich history of magic, and how it has sculpted the world which you now so easily take for granted." His face was in a permanent frown, although I suppose a smile wouldn't look as nice on his face. "Mrrrrooowww..."

"I grade based on classroom behavior as well as the quality of work. Don't let me catch you sleeping. Now, let us open our books to page fifteen. This section concerns the magestones discovered in the Dwarfs' Mine..." Good thing I researched them ahead of time. "Mrrrrooowww..." His cat was going to be a distraction.

"As knowledge and awareness of magical energy began to spread across the globe from this point, this year is considered Year One of the Magic Era." He started. "Mrrrrooowww..." Even his cat was tired!
