It took a while for Deuce to explain to the headmaster about our situation with Riddle. Crowley listened to every detail he mentioned from Ace spending the night at Ramshackle to the Unbirthday Party. After he finished explaining, Crowley has his hand on his chin with a calculating look.

"I see, that's the situation...you're against apologizing to get the collar removed but you don't feel that you can persuade Riddle to let this go without a fuss." Crowley states.

"Yeah, that's about right." Ace said.

"So then, if you don't think you can compromise with the dorm leader, you have the option of transferring dormitories. However, your dormitory was chosen for you after the Dark Mirror saw the quality of your soul so. There are quite a number of troublesome procedures and rituals that are required." Crowley explains.

"Transfer, huh." Ace trails off but he rejects the idea. "That makes me feel like I'm running away so, no thanks."

Crowley thinks until he has another solution. "Hmm. How do you feel about applying for a decisive match with Mr.Rosehearts to take his place as dorm leader?" He suggests and the rest of us react dumbfounded.

"Eeeeeeeeehhhhhhh!!??"

A match with Riddle for a spot to be a dorm leader!?

"Everyone! You're shouting!" Crowley scolds us.

"Because you are saying really crazy things." Ace replies.

"It is not crazy in the least. After all, that's how Mr.Rosehearts became dorm leader." Crowley said.

"Now that you mention it, how are the dorm leaders chosen at Night Raven College?" Deuce asks and I nod my head wanting to know.

"We heard that Riddle became dorm leader a week after he started school." Grim recalls.

"Being nominated by the previous dorm leader, winning a decisive match against the current dorm leader, and there are many other ways it's decided. A decisive match is one of the more simple." Crowley crosses his arms across his chest and explains.

"Isn't using magic to settle personal squabbles prohibited?" Ace asks reminiscing the day we got into a fix with the two delinquents at the cafeteria.

Crowley answers with a curt nod. "Personal ones, yes. Going through the proper channels with the headmaster overseeing a decisive match is another matter."

"It's prohibited to place handicaps on your opponent before a decisive match, too." Trey adds to Crowley's explanation. "You would be able to get the collar removed without apologizing to Riddle. But..."

"All students are given the right to take the role of dorm leader the moment they enter this school." Crowley before turning his attention to Ace. "What say you? Mr.Trappola. Will you challenge Mr.Rosehearts?"

I stare at Ace until he decides to accept his request. "Okay. I won't know unless I try."

"Count me in, too," Deuce steps forward and punches his fist on the palm of his hand.

"Don't forget me!" Grim hops onto my shoulder and raises his paw in the air.

"Grim, unfortunately students from another dorm cannot issue a challenge." Crowley points out.

"Ffnga!? Then, who exactly is gonna take off my collar!? Grim sweatdrops.

"I'll order Riddle to take it off if I become dorm leader." Ace says.

Grim crosses his arms with a grunt before  pouting and looking away as I glance at him with a deadpan. "Shit. This was gonna be a chance for me to show off my skills..."

"Are you guys serious? Deuce, I never would have expected this from you." Trey reacts with a startled expression on his face.

"Really? As a man, don't you want to aim for the top sometimes? If we're doing this, count me in. Make it a team-play." Deuce says with a smug smile.

"Here it is, bad-boy mode." Ace smiles along with the dark blue-haired male making me chuckle.

"Eh? It's...normal?" Deuce asks.

"I shall take care of the bureaucratic matters." Crowley says.

"We should come up with a plan." I suggest.

If Ace and Deuce are going up against Riddle, we need to figure out a strategy on how to avoid his unique magic.

"Yeah. Anyone got any bright ideas?" Ace asks around as we start to think.

"Huuuh. I don't see us beating Riddle in terms of magic. But, if it's a fistfight, we got this." Deuce says.

"True, he seems like a little weakling!" Grim smiles.

Something popped up in Crowley's mind and steps in. "Oops, I forgot to mention. In this decisive match, any attacks other than magic are forbidden."

"Geh!?" Well, so much for that idea they had in mind.

"Ha ha ha! Follow the rules and enjoy your decisive match! The formalities will be taken care of tomorrow so be mindful of the timing. I bid you adieu." And that's the last thing Crowley tells us before he walks away and leave the library.

"A-alright! I'm not super confident in our magic, but...I'm sure it'll be fine!" Ace says putting on a brave face.

"Y-yeah!" Deuce says.

"I've still got this collar on me! You better go all out!" Grim tells them knowing what they're battling for.

"You guys." Trey is beginning to feel like he's having second thoughts about our match against Riddle.

Well, what choice do we have? I know Trey is against this idea but, we decided ourselves. Still, this could go wrong at any time but, there's no going back now.

"When I become dorm leader, I'm going to make him say: I was wrong, I'm so sorry! And, I'll stop him paralyzing everyone with his crazy rules!" Ace makes his own declaration and clenches his fist.
