Question: What is (Name)'s real name?

Author-san's answer: (Name) L.F. Heartfilia (She has two middle names and I might explain to the upcoming chapters related to her own past self, her mother and father's details, and her still unknown Grandfather. She also had another relative that she often visits back in Earthland. Yes, that relative is still alive.)

~ 3rd Person's Perspective ~

"U-Um..." (Name) scratched her cheek. "You see, the injured students have been increasing and If I mean 'increasing', that is not normal like just coincidence. So the Headmaster asked us to investigate this matter."

"I see..." Riddle nodded at (Name)'s explanation. "The Headmaster asked that from you, huh..."

"Mhmm!" Happy gave Riddle a thumbs up.

"See? I knew that Grimmy won't be visiting without a reason." Cater added, chuckling.

"Actually, the Headmaster bribed him..." (Name) admitted, sweatdropping.

Carla placed her paw under her chin, thinking of what she dreamt. Could it be a clairvoyance again or it was just a bad dream?

"Actually, I thought that something was amiss, too, so I asked Cater to gather some information." Riddle acknowledged.

"And then we found out that the only targeted people are the top players like Riddle-kun or Trey-kun." Cater added.

"I also noticed that also." (Name) piped in. "I checked the details of one injured student  and they're actually one of the line-up in every dorm."

"(Name), you got some kiwi fruit?" Pantherlily asked, burying his face on (Name)'s lap.

"It is true that I hadn't slipped nor had someone pushed me from behind that day." Riddle confessed, while (Name) gave Pantherlily a kiwi fruit from her Doraemon pocket. "However... I don't know how to explain it, but it felt like my body just moved around on its own."

"The other guys who got hurt said the same thing, too." Grim stated.

"I think it would be a good idea to narrow our list down to the tournament players." Riddle suggested.

"You mean to say that they're injuring strong players so that they'll have fewer rivals for the Magical Shift Tournament?" Ace asked.

"It's a competition that will be viewed worldwide." Riddle explained. "The tournament is connected to a guaranteed way to secure one's future, so it's not unthinkable that people will use any means necessary to win."

"Hm... Still, it's very strange." Cater muttered. "It's not like you were pushed by some kind of wind magic, right?"

"I didn't feel any sort of impact at all." Riddle retorted

"The culprit is very smart, too." (Name) declared. "They know where and how they can injure people out of nowhere."

"Yeah." Cater nodded. "It seems like there were some who got injured during lessons, too. I wonder what's going on..."

"We just have to extract that statement from the culprit themselves." Riddle proclaimed. "We will help you search for him."

"Really, Riddle-senpai?" (Name) asked, hope written in her eyes.

"Oh!? You'll help us?! What're you scheming...?" Grim shouted. "Specially you, Cater!"

Pantherlily rubbed his head, "He has trust issues, I swear..."

"You sure have a bad rep of me, huh~!" Cater chuckled. "Our dorm-mate got hurt, so it's natural to help, right~?"

"He has a point, though..." Carla agreed in Cater's statement.
