**HEARKEN, O MORTALS, LUNATICS, AND DEVOTED LITTLE GREMLINS!**
Step closer to the footlights and behold the grand architectural blueprint of our little literary madhouse. A bold, brave soul in the audience recently dared to whisper a forbidden question into the digital void: *Are the pristine, rival-school pretty boys of Royal Sword Academy going to infect our protagonist's love interest roster?*
To which I say, with all the poetic grace of a collapsing cathedral: **ABSOLUTELY.NOT**
Let us consult the sacred texts of our character dynamics, for there is a cosmic order to this chaos! Our dear protagonist—oh, bless her ambitious, chaotic soul—is a connoisseur of the highest, most dangerous order. She likes her men the way a dragon likes its gold:
*stunningly handsome, hazardously hot, and possessing the rigid, rule-breaking thrill of strict, brooding bad boys.** Night Raven College was literally *invented* for her specific brand of romantic gluttony.
But what of sweet, iconic **Sally**? Ah, the brilliant, beautiful Sally—whom you first glimpsed in our character dossiers and that fateful *Sakura Dorm* chapter that dragged both Sally and Laura tumbling headfirst into this gothic nightmare! Sally does not crave the brooding storm of NRC. Nay! Sally is a *boss lady*soul who prefers the blinding, sunlit, utterly innocent rays of pure, wholesome joy.
And *that*, my sweet gremlins, is why the universe has ordained a stroke of pure poetic justice:
Do not panic, and keep your composure. In the upcoming chapters—*yes, right after we survive the catastrophic, soul-shattering emotional fallout of Riddle’s Overblot*—our protagonist's two legendary best friends shall make their grand, theatrical entrance. And once the dust settles, you shall bear witness to Sally constructing a magnificent, glowing harem out of pure Royal Sword Academy heartthrobs.
The stage is set. The universe is balanced. Curtain down, chaos up!
