The Battle of the Kings
The school's annual tournament, contested by only eight students after Riki Shibatani intimidated the rest into withdrawing.
History
Ryuji broke Riki in the semi-final and refused to release him even as he begged, judging that terror would keep him from ever trying again. The crowd went silent. Yuki told him it was not the way.
Ryuji took the title of King, Sawano the title of Queen, and Yuki — after some debate — the title of Jack. The nobles never forgave it, and the commoners paid for it behind locked doors.
