By the time your consciousness had returned after having to watch Leona's past, Crowley and the others had already returned. You were met with the unusually worried expression of Riddle as he held out a hand to you.

"Are you alright? You were out for quite a while after Leona was defeated."

You shot him a confused look before nodding. "Yeah, I'm fine," you reassured him, yet it didn't seem to work much as his eyebrows furrowed.

Reaching out to take the red heads hand, you looked over to where Grim was shaking the unconscious Leona until he woke up.

"I did it! He's awake!" The monster yelled at the lion male. "I was startin' to think you weren't ever gonna regain consciousness!"

Leona sent Grim a confused look as the monster continued. "Now, then, hurry up and confess that all the accidents were apart of your plan!"

"What? Come again?"

Crowley, who had been standing behind you finally spoke up. "Kingscholar, you fell into an overblot rampage due to being consumed by blot and negative energy. Do you not remember?"

Leona glanced up at the Headmaster in horror, trying to process the information he had been given. "I went on a rampage... overblot? You've got to be kidding...."

"More importantly the magical shift tournament is about to begin!" The monster exclaimed while you merely shook your head. "If you don't confess already we can't get our prize and play in the tournament!"

"Huh? What are you talking about?" Leona furrowed his brows at Grim.

Jack had then stepped forward to explain. "They went after you in order to get permission from the Headmaster to play in the magical shift tournament."

You sighed and shook your head. "I did try to tell him not to fall for it..."

The Headmaster had then turned his attention towards Ruggie and Grim. "Then it's safe to assume that the series of unfortunate events around the campus were all your dorms doing?"

Leona sighed, closing his eyes in resignation as he confessed. "Yeah, they were."

Crowley nodded. "Understood. Then, Savanaclaw Dorm is disqualified from this years tournament. Further punishment will be decided after I have discussed it with those that you injured. Is that clear?"

"Understood..." Leona replied.

"Headmaster, please wait a moment." Riddle had then spoke up. The victims of the accidents had also showed up, wearing their dormitory outfits.

The Headmaster's eyes appeared to widen upon seeing all the victims. "Rosehearts? And I see you're with... aren't you all the..."

Riddle nodded before he could finish. "Yes, these are the victims from the accidents."

"Headmaster, as the victims we have a request to ask of you," Trey spoke up. He still wore a cast, but it appeared to be not as bad as it looked before. "Could you please withdraw from disqualifying Savanaclaw and have them play in the tournament?"

You all gave him a look of suprise, except for Riddle and the other victims.

"What? Are you saying... you wish to forgive their crimes?"

"You guys..." Ruggie and Jack were rather stunned as they tried to decipher what was happening.

"No. That's the last thing we want." Jamil frowned, placing his hands on his hips.

Trey smirked, glancing at the Savanaclaw trio. "If Savanaclaw is disqualified from the tournament then we'll lose our chance at revenge."

Ruggie and Jack grew even more suprised as their eyes widened. "E-Eh?!"
