"What's Magical Shift Tournament?" I asked as I tilt my head to the side and Ace looked at me with a surprised look
"Huh? Maria, you don't know Magift?" Ace asked and I gave him a deadpan look
"Ace, you do know I don't have any memories about my life or my past right?" I reminded Ace and now he looked embarrassed
"R-Right..." Ace said with a red look while scratching the back of his head and started to explain it "Magical Shift... or Magift for short, is a sport played by two teams of seven. Put simply, there's a disk that you have to throw through the other team's goal to score points. The team with the most points wins"
"I see. That sounds like fun" I said
"Indeed, it is! Our school's inter-Dorm Magical Shift Tournament is attended by representatives of pro leagues and those from different magical industries around the world. The arena will be lined up with food stalls, and visitors from different countries will grace the stadium. It is a tournament that'll make your palms sweat and works the whole world into a frenzy thanks to the live broadcast TV cameras" Headmaster Crowley said
"Amazing" I said with stars in my eyes
"Worldwide broadcast!? So, if I play in that tournament, the whole world will be paying attention to me!?" Grim asked excitedly
"Certainly! Those who play in the tournament will without a doubt become popular with pro leagues and any number of sponsors" Headmaster Crowley said, making Grim even more excited that he started wagging his pitchfork tail
"In your case Grim, I think they'd be more surprised by seeing a monster play" Deuce said
"Oh yeah! I'll start some special training today and stand out to everyone in that stadium!" Grim declared
"Oh, but Grim, you can't play at all" Headmaster Crowley said, making Grim look at him with a confused look
"Huh?"
"Didn't you hear what the Headmaster said? He said Inter-Dorm, meaning we don't fit the requirements on participating in the tournament" I said, making Grim creak
"Eeeeeeeeeeehhhhhhhh!? How can that be!!!???" Grim shouted with disbelief
"As Miss Maria has said, you can't participate if you don't have more members of your dorm. But you can sell drinks in the stands, preparing the field for the tournament. There are many things that have to be done. Standing on the field as a player isn't the only one" Headmaster Crowley said as he suggested the positions, but Grim didn't look happy
"No way! No way!! I wanna hear 'Kyaa! Grim is so cool!' or 'Hey, did you see his super play!?' from the crowd as they all cheer for me!" Grim said with a pouted look
'Running a small cafe for the event could be fun' I thought
"That's pretty basic delusion..." Ace said with a sweat drop
"Hmmm. Can't be helped since you don't have enough people. You might have to give up on it this year and hope that some freshmen get sorted into Ramshackle Dorm next year" Deuce tried to reassure Grim
"Now then, I must leave for the meeting! Come along, Maria" Headmaster Crowley said as he beckons me to follow
"Alright. Ace? Deuce? Will you both watch over Grim til I get back?" I asked
"Of course, you can count on us babe!" Ace said
"We'll make sure to keep a close eye on him" Deuce promised
"Ffnaa! I don't need a babysitter!" Grim shouted
"Too bad, you'll cause trouble the moment we turn our backs" I said as I started to run to catch up with the headmaster
