=======================

"Today, Jaden Yuki and others entered the restricted special dorm, violating Academy rules. This is a serious matter."

Jaden and Syrus stood in the center of a large, empty room, surrounded by giant screens. Behind each screen sat a member of the Academy's top brass—Chancellor Sheppard and Professor Crowler among them.

"I'm sorry, I'll do whatever you say." Jaden pressed his palms together, sincerely. "Just give me a chance!"

Honestly, getting expelled wasn't that big a deal to Jaden. What he cared about was that, if kicked out, he wouldn't get to play cards with so many interesting opponents.

"Well, since even a slacker is begging so hard, I'll be merciful and give you a special chance, non." Professor Crowler grinned. "I'll arrange a tag-team punishment duel as soon as possible. Is that okay?"

Jaden: "Eh? Tag-team... punishment duel?"

"Exactly. Jaden Yuki and Syrus Truesdale, as members of your dorm, will participate in a dorm-versus-dorm duel. If you win, you'll be acquitted."

Jaden perked up at the mention of a duel, instantly forgetting the threat of expulsion.

"Dorm duel? Sounds fun!"

"Um..." Syrus whispered, "Isn't this kinda bad, big bro...?"

Professor Crowler: "Chancellor, as you see, he agrees."

Chancellor Sheppard pondered. "Well, if that's the case, nothing can be done."

"Wonderful." Crowler beamed. "Then just wait for the notification. I'll arrange your opponents as soon as possible, non!"

...

After the first period, Kira arrived at the Academic Affairs Office.

The tall female teacher welcomed him politely and made him tea.

The morning sunlight streamed into the office, golden spots dancing across the wooden floor like a warm carpet. Delicate porcelain cups steamed, the scent of tea mingling with the fresh air from the window.

"That's just about all I needed to ask."

The teacher smiled.

"Sorry for making you come in person, Kira-kun."

"Not at all." Kira waved it off. "Cooperating with the Academy's investigation is my duty."

"Still, you should be careful—the old dorm is a dangerous area, strictly off-limits. This time, we'll let it go, but don't wander into such dangerous places again."

"Don't worry, I won't do it again." Kira patted his chest.

"Good." She sipped her tea, smiling. "I hear you're one of the Academy's brightest new stars. If anything happened to you, we'd have a hard time explaining it."

"Thank you for your concern."

"Oh, and one more thing—"

The teacher leaned forward conspiratorially.

She lowered her voice.

"I heard you're friends with Kaiba, the President himself. Is that true?"

Kira considered. "Well, we do know each other."

To call him a friend was a stretch, but denying it outright would be awkward, considering all the favors he'd received.

Might as well roll with it.

He still had three years at the Academy, and having a solid backer couldn't hurt.

The teacher didn't say anything more, but her expression clearly said, "Terrifying!"

After all, the Academy was largely funded by Kaiba. Even if it wasn't, in this world, Kaiba's status was unrivaled. Connections in politics might not be as useful as knowing Kaiba.

"By the way, I heard the final punishment is a dorm duel?" Kira asked.

"Oh, that. Only Jaden Yuki and Syrus Truesdale, as the ringleaders, have to participate." She smiled. "You don't need to worry."

"I heard they might bring in a legendary duelist as the opponent?"

She was surprised. "How did you—oh, did Professor Crowler tell you?"

Bringing in a legendary duelist was Chronos' idea, not even finalized with the Chancellor yet. Only the Academic Affairs Office had been informed.

But the teacher remembered Kira was one of Crowler's favorites, so maybe the professor let it slip.

"If they win, won't they get a ton of credits?"

She hesitated. "Uh, well, probably."
