~⁕3rd POV⁕~

Location: underground gym

"Now then, I'll just confirm that you all know the rules." Kalego said. He's seen with a ball on his hand; he's posture held great dominance as a high-rank demon.

!!!{Rules}!!!

[All of you will stand on the infield, one person on the outfield and to those who are struck by the ball must go to the outfield. Attack from the outfield until one team is completely defeated.]

[You can use magic on the ball. But you are not allowed to use magic on opponents.]

[Rank evaluation will be proportional to the student's rank in each team. The time limit is 15 minutes, the ball touches the ground once is safe, and face contact is a foul.]

"Now that I've explained the rules, here" Kalego showed multiple arm bands that are yellow and red, both cloth are in equal numbers to divide teams "Distribute the armbands for both A and B team amongst yourselves. Once they're on, find your place on the court" Kalego stated to The Abnormal Class.

"Finally, our training days area bout to be paid of!" Asmodues exclaim to the group after he received his armband... "Yeah.." Iruma responded "I'm still nervous, but.." (y/n) looked at the charm that's in her hands, the one that Opera had given to her before walking out of the house.

⏮️Flashback!

"(y/n)-chan, wait" Opera stop the girl from leaving "here, just a charm for your success" they then gave (y/n) a lucky charm that has a engraving says '[victory shall be yours]' "oh, thanks a lot Opera!" (y/n) gave her thanks to the red haired demon infront of her.

"And one last thing" Opera said 'there's more?' (y/n) thought in curiosity "may Satan, the devil of wrath, help you on conquering the battle and obliterate your enemies" Opera utter out 'that sounds really savage!!' (y/n) thought, having a tense smile her face from what Opera had said,

"That is all, (y/n)-chan. You may go now" Opera said, not minding (y/n)'s expression "Thanks again, Opera-senpai" (y/n) repeated her gratitude to one of her supporters before running out of the door leading outside to go where the group is waiting at 'I promised to treasure this!' (y/n) thought with great enthusiasm.

(End of flashback)

'I'm not gonna let Opera's training and my handwork go to waste!' (y/n) thought, the nervousness in her heart slowly vanishes and is replace by excitement and determination. Taking one last look of the before clutching it and put it in one of her uniform's pocket

"Let's go, (y/n)-chan. It's about to start now" Tamashi said, going to his side of the court where his team is located at "yeah! let's show them what we got!" Asmodues yelled in excitement, going to the same way as Tamashi "yeah!" "alright!" Iruma and (y/n) walked to their direction of their group which is-

The opposite team's side...

"Wha-...!?"

(y/n) & Iruma - Team A

Tamashi & Asmodues - Team B

"Hey! I think there's something wrong with the groupings!!" Asmodues questioned Kalego, denying that he has to fight against his own friends that he follows loyally "There is no mistake. You were divided equally to balance both teams, no objections" "but!-" "NO OB-JEC-TIONS" Kalego sternly hold his ground before walking away after seeing Asmodeus defeated look.
