On their first day as second-year students at the Imperial Mage Academy, Yifa, Amyu, and Seika sit together during lunch and discuss how there haven’t been any demon attacks lately. Suddenly, the headmaster summons Seika and Yifa to his office the next day, leaving Amyu to speculate about Seika’s possible expulsion. The following day, Seika and Yifa meet with the headmaster, who surprisingly informs them that they are to participate in a mixed combat tournament in the capital. The academy had two slots, and the other one went to a new student named Mabel Crane.
Amyu is confused as to why she wasn’t invited to the tournament, but the headmistress explains that she relied on her gut feeling when selecting Seika and Yifa. The conversation between Yifa, Amyu, Seika, and Mabel is tense, leading to disagreements, during which Amyu challenges Mabel to a sword fight to test her strength. After the duel, Amyu and Mabel agree that the tournament is serious and not for the weak.
Seika, Yifa, and Amyu are on their way to the capital to participate in the tournament. During the journey, a discussion arises about sleeping arrangements, with Mabel showing little respect toward her classmates.
At the tournament grounds, Seika feels ill but wants to check the match-up board. Yifa asks if there are any famous adventurers present, but Amyu doubts it. Seika heads to the inn to rest while Yifa and Amyu explore the city.
When the tournament begins, Seika is the first participant—a mage from the Lamprogue Clan—facing Dennis Regan, a swordsman from the Garlz Mercenary Band. Seika defeats Dennis with ease, leaving the audience stunned by his swift victory.
In the next match, Belem is defeated and becomes the tournament’s first casualty. Seika and Amyu are shocked by what they’ve just witnessed, and Seika suspects that Kyle might have cursed his opponent with black magic. In a deep, experienced tone, Seika hints that Kyle could be a bearer of the Evil Eye—a person capable of wielding spiritual power to curse others.
As the tournament continues, Seika and Amyu feel uneasy, unable to shake off the strange events they’ve just witnessed.
