The chapter starts with Riddle about to punish Yuuken for interference until Trey and Cater stop him. Meanwhile, the dorm leaders that are present comment on Riddle's Unique Magic and achievements. Both Trey and Cater persuade Riddle to spare Yuuken since he didn’t know the rules, and it’s his first day at Night Raven College. Yuuken reminds Cater that he didn’t say that he's enrolling, and he can’t use magic. Suddenly, the Dark Mirror appears and confirms that Yuuken is not a magic user since he can’t sense any magic, color, or shape of his soul. Crowley decides to take Yuuken back to where he came from by using the Dark Mirror, but there’s no response. The Dark Mirror states that he can’t send Yuuken back since the world he originally came from does not exist. When Crowley asks Yuuken where he came from, he says he’s from Japan. However, none of them have ever heard of Japan, which leads to them becoming suspicious of Yuuken, thinking that he is lying. Frustrated, Yuuken decides to find his way back to Japan himself. However, after seeing a few students flying off with brooms, Yuuken finally realizes he has been transported to another world. Crowley decides to give Yuuken a place to stay for the time being until he finds a way to send him back to his world.

Meanwhile, Riddle is seen walking down the school hallway along with Trey following him from behind, still frustrated from his encounter with Yuuken after the ceremony. Cater then came and reported to Riddle about preparations for the new students arriving at the Heartlabyul dormitory. Riddle warns Trey and Cater that if any trouble occurs, he will have their heads, to which both of them agreed. The three members of Heartlabyul head back to their dorm.

Crowley takes Yuuken to an abandoned dormitory, the Ramshackle Dorm, where he can stay there for free. Suddenly the Ramshackle ghosts appear right in front of Yuuken, which startled him. The ghosts offer Yuuken to become a ghost in a dreadful tone. However, Yuuken is unfazed and is instead amazed by the fact that people can see ghosts without any special powers in this world. He says he has to decline their offer to become a ghost but is looking forward to getting along with them as roommates. This makes the ghosts puzzled and confused by his reaction since no one has been friendly with them before. Crowley informs Yuuken he will let him stay for free, but food and clothing are something he needs to purchase himself with his own money. However, Yuuken’s money from his original world won’t work, so Crowley decides to make him a handyman due to having a burly body.

The following day, Yuuken arrives at Main Street to clean the statues of the Great Seven. The chapter ends with Yuuken questioning the Queen of Hearts and his encounter with Ace and Deuce.

  • Trey's Ceremonial Robe's collar switches between unbuttoned (page 6; 10-14) and buttoned (page 7-9; 15-25).
