" Wtf is Spelldrive?"

I deadpan look at the headmage and my idiot friend. After the whole meeting and explain about overblot, that bastard told me that he was busy with Spelldrive.

" Dude, Y/N... You've never heard of Spelldrive?!" Ace ask me in shock, followed by Deuce" It's a world-famous sport! There's even a pro league and a world championship tournament,".

" Anjir, I'm from another world,"

" Oh....right," {Ace}

" I ain't never heard of this either!" {Grim}

Ace look at us, explain" Spelldrive is a sport played by competing teams of seven people.
Basically, players battle for control of a disc and earn points by drivin' it into the enemy team's goal.
The team with the most points wins!".

My brain went blurry for a second, the light bulb. " Ohh.... it's basically soccer then,"." Soccer? What now?" Deuce asked.

" Hm. I've not heard of such a game, but I'll look it up the next time I'm at the library.
Perhaps it will yield some sort of clue," {Crowley}

" Oh, man, I just realized that Y/N would have a hard time actually playing," {Ace}

" Yeah? Why's that?" {Grim}

" You need magic to play.
Not only do you move the disc with magic, but you use it to attack and defend, too," {Deuce}

" The flashier the magic, the better-it's how players show off their skills!" {Ace}

I deadpan to them " That's more like a Quidditch to me. Y'all using broom to fly and shit, right?"." Wait, how did you know that?" Grim asked me, both hand at his hips.

" I remember seeing how they played that stuff thought. Not here, but in the movie,"

" Hmm..I really wanna see that movie Y/N's being talking," {Deuce}

" That is why Night Raven College is known throughout the world as a leader in the sport!

This school has produced countless pro players!
That's why our interdorm Spelldrive tournaments attract attention even from pro league recruiters.

Also, those simply looking for up-and-coming magicians use the event to scout hopeful candidates.
Yes, the tournament is quite an affair.
The campus will be full of visitors and lined with various kiosks.

And the main event will be captured by television cameras and broadcast worldwide," {Crowely}

'what the hell is this, WWE or NBA???'

Grim eyes lit up" It's broadcast throughout the world?!
So you're sayin' that if I were to play in this tournament-and win of course-the whole world would see it?!"." Of course! Players who excel at the tournament invariably attract great attention.
Both from the pro leagues and the public at large!" Crowely exclaimed.

" In your case, the magic would barely even matter. Just having a monster like you out there is sure to turn heads," {Deuce}

" It's settled, then! I'm gonna train around the clock, join a team, and become a legend!" {Grim}

" Alas, Grim, you cannot enter," {Crowely}

Grim excitement stop there " ....Wait, what?"." Did you not hear me speak the word "interdorm" multiple times?
Your dorm doesn't even have seven members. Therefore, you cannot enter the tournament,". Crowely state.

" Whaaaaaat?! No faaaaair!" {Grim}

" But there's plenty else to do, from tending to the grounds to selling drinks in the stands!
Those who stand upon the field are not the only stars of tournament day," {Crowely}

" Not. Interested!
I wanna be on TV! I want everyone in the world fawning over me! "Squeee! Grim is sooooo cool!"
"Did you see that play Grim made?" You get what I'm sayin'?" {Grim}

Ace sighed " Your delusions are oddly specific, dude,"." Well, if you can't field a team, I'm afraid that's that.

Maybe next year, Ramshackle House will get some new members. But it's not happening this year,". Deuce state

' Yeah, that is if I'm still here,'

" Anyway, as I believe I've mentioned, I'm a busy man. I must be off," Crowley said, while Grim still mad about the whole thing " Yeah, thanks for takin' me outta your busy day to build up my dreams and crush 'em! Myaaah! *sob*,".

I pulled Crowley cape lightly " Sir, may I suggest something?"." Oh? Of course! Well then, come to Mirror Chamber in few minutes," he said, and left his office. I looked at Deuce and Ace.

" Look after Grim for me, will ya?"

" Sure, Y/N," {Deuce}

" Yeah..yeah...," {Ace}

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

(Mirror Chamber)

" Sup people,"." Ah, Y/N! Please have a seat,". Crowley said. I nod, and take a sit beside Riddle. He smile to me, whisper " Hello, Rose,"." Hey Love," I jokingly said, his face is red.

Crowely began to speak " I call to order this meeting of housewardens. Our agenda today concerns the October Spelldrive tournament.
Let us begin with the report from the head of the tournament planning committee: Mr. Ashengrotto of Octavinelle house,".

'ah...so that's Azul. Heard his a mafia or somethin'

" Greetings. I am Azul Ashengrotto, and it is my honor to lead the planning committee.
I am pleased to announce that we have fully booked the grounds surrounding the coliseum.
All of the kiosk space allotted to both internal organizations and external businesses is now full," {Azul}

" Sweet! This tournament should be a real lively one, then," {Kalim}

" All invitations to various royalty have been sent, and public tickets are selling briskly.
And, as in past years, we have received numerous requests to cover the event from both television stations and print media," {Azul}

Kalim smile " Sounds like the whole world will be watching.
Before I was admitted here, I looked forward to receiving my VIP invitation every year.
I imagine you got them too, Leona? We might have run into each other at the tournament when we were kids!"." Who knows? And also, who cares?" Leona frowned.

" This year, I'll have to work extra hard on my makeup to make sure I'm shining like a diamond on the new Ultravision displays.
With all the exertion, I'll need to be touching it up constantly!" {Vil}

' Use Ku Puteh, then you white as fuck man'

Riddle sighed " Sigh*... House Pomefiore is the only dorm that regularly calls timeouts to fix their makeup,"." Imagine every 1 minutes they asked for break to fix their face," I whisper to Riddle.

" Pfft...you sure have good humor, Rose," {Riddle}

" Oh! You won't Bee-live when I say I work hard for my humor. It was egg-celent,"

Riddle and I chuckle with my bad humor. Man, I starting to sound like Cyno tho. The other Dorm leader glare at us, especially to Riddle.

" Ahem! As I was saying," Azul regained his sense " Now, as soon as your dorms' player rosters are settled, I'll need your registration documents. Any dorm that is even a single day late-,".

" Will be promptly disqualified, I trust," {Riddle}

" No. They will be charged a handling fee. Consider it remuneration for rush processing,". {Azul}

Me and Riddle look at him as if he just tell something disgusting to our face " What? I don't approve of you changing the rules to allow for policy exceptions!" Riddle almost burst in anger.

" Love, calm down...," I said, caress his back. He melted to my touch, and softly hold my hand. " Thanks, Rose," He mutter.

Azul look at our moments with pure rage of jealous. But he remains calm, and that's when Kalim break the silent " And I couldn't be more grateful for it! Ha ha ha!"." Let's try to stay on topic.
We need to discuss the tournament bracket. I had an idea I'd like to propose," Crowely said.

" And that is...?" {Riddle}

" It concerns the Diasomnia housewarden.
I think that we should induct Mr. Draconia into the hall of fame to keep him off the field entirely," {Crowley}

The whole dorm leader eyes wided, except me. Kalim spoke " Say whaaat?!"." What are you on about?" Leona said, in disagree tone.

" Ever since Mr. Draconia enrolled here, no dorm has scored even a single point against Diasomnia.
Diasomnia regularly scores 100 points per game, with 90% of them being from Mr. Draconia himself," Crowley said. Damn, Tsun Tsun show no mercy.

" Now that you mention it, when we had to face them last year, it did feel completely futile" {Kalim}

" The dude totally breaks the game. It's like he's got cheat codes enabled," {Idia}

I looked at the tablet ' Who the hell you think he is, Monika from DDLC??'. " Amusement is not the only goal of this tournament.

Our hope is that spectators the world over will discover talented new mages. However...

Recent matches have been ending without anyone, save Mr. Draconia, casting even a single spell. And that includes his own teammates!

And that is a less-than-optimal state of affairs," Crowley state.

" I'm all for it. Getting stomped isn't exactly fun for us either," {Idia}

" I know many members of Savanaclaw House aspire to play in the Spelldrive pro league.

Savanaclaw House had never landed in less than third place in the history of this school.

And yet in both of the last two years, you've been eliminated in the first round after being matched against Diasomnia House.

That's certainly not impressing any recruiters. Thus, this matter of disproportionate performance directly affects your players' future," {Crowely}

" And you're sayin' you expect us to make fools of ourselves on the field again this year?" {Leona}

" It certainly brings me no pleasure to suggest it.
Regardless, Mr. Draconia has already agreed to be inducted into the hall of fame.
All we need now is the committee's approval," {Crowely}

" Bullshit,"

All the dorm leader as well Crowely look at me. Riddle even shocked" R..rose?"." Y/N, how absurd of you to use such a word in the meeting!" Crowely yelled.

" WELL FUCK I DO!" I slammed the table, make everyone flinched.

I frowned" Listen here, crow bastard. This whole Spelldrive tournament ain't about reputation and pride. It's about teamwork and strategy,". Stand up on the table, look at the Dorm Leader.

" Even The King of Beasts from the Great Seven won his throne through cunning and persistence," I walked on the table explain" Based on a theory, The King of Beast is the best example for the pride,".

Leona smirked, tilted his eyebrows" Oh? How so, herbivore?"." Think about the history of the King of Beast. He once challenge his brother for the throne, right? And he won,".

" Even so, if his brother still alive he couldn't be the king. Adult lions are supposedly exile from the pride and make their own coalition. So when he basically deserve to be the king because he follow the natural law of lion monarch,"

" I see..," {Riddle}

" So Mr Bird man. I suggest you to close your damn idea about the whole Wall Of Fame thing. Even if Diasomnia agree, the other Dorm wouldn't. They want to use their skill for the match, not knitting some scarf,".

All the dorm leader nod, Crowley sighed " Sigh*... Fine, fine.
But if this year ends up being a repeat of the last two years, he's going in next year for sure,"." That's your call," Leona said.

" Well, that was the last item on today's agenda. Everyone, remember to submit your registrations.
Not that I would be upset if it were to slip your mind... Heh heh heh," {Azul}

" Incidentally, where IS Malleus? Did everyone forget to invite him again?" {Vil}

Kalim and Riddle gasped at the same time " Oops!"." 'yall forget Malleus!? NAH MAN HOW COULD YOU DO THAT TO MAL MAN!' I thought.

" Y/N, I believe you also have a word?" {Crowely}

" Oh? The Prefect have some idea?" {Azul}

" Probably some stupid outdoor idea...," {Idia}

I slammed the table again " I demand a new match to be added,"." Come again?!" Crowely asked me confused. I clapped my hand, smile carved on the face.

" You see, Crowely. As a non magic human, I can clearly, calmly, annoyingly, disgustingly said that your student......

ARE WEAK AT PHYSICAL,"

" Oi! watch your mouth Herbivore," {Leona}

" Weak!? But we all use magic! How come-," {Vil}

" That's the point. Magic,"

Dorm Leader dumbfounded" Huh?!"." Do explain further, Y/N," Crowley state with amused.

" I see a lot of students, no...in fact all students depends on magic so much. It's like you depends on technology. If you depends on it so much, you became helpless and weak. If the technology broke, you c6an help yourself anymore.

So I suggest a good match after Spelldrive without using magic. Infact! I PROHIBITED USING MAGIC,".

" OH!!! what kind of match! Now this is interesting!" {Kalim}

I smile " First game is called Baling Selipar. The same concept is basically like dodgeball, or you don't have one tho.

Any member from different dorm can join. One slippers will be act as a posion. One team must dodge and build the tower to win, while other team will throw the poison to stop them,".

" Hmm...sound interesting....yes, I guess that's a good idea,". {Crowely}

" Second game is Sepak Takraw. I will explain it if the headmage agree," I said. Riddle smile " Rose sure have a lot of idea huh?".

Crowely nod " Yes...I think it will be a great news to add new game, let alone it's another world game. I accepted your suggestions, Y/N,".

After the meeting end, Riddle went to me " Rose, would you like to have some tea and tart at Heartslabyul? T..that is, if you want to," Riddle shyly said. I smile " Sure!".

"Tch....," Leona glared at Riddle, then left the meeting.

No matter, he has other matter to do....
