Gaming Battalia Member Clara's made-up game: Njalaka
>Textbox on the right
I made this!
>On the board on the left
Each player takes turns moving their pieces.
Grumpies are stronger than Friendlies.
Every 30 minutes you have to dance.
(That's Njalaka time!)
Proper-kun and Ladylike-chan can't fight one another.
Whoever has the most pieces left at the end wins!

THE SHITTEST GAME EVER...

>Page 2
With 1,056 gamepieces it's a total free-for-all. But some pieces move at random, others change properties without warning; only a total idiot could think up a game like this...

What's more...

I can't see a thing.

(Ring)

Shax Family
Bloodline ability:
>Going with bloodline here because people are already familiar with the term from Kekkai Sensen and Naruto
Controller <Sense Stealer>
This ability will steal one of the target's five sense, and the corresponding organ on its wielder turns black.

>Page 3
I see... An insane game
And the theft of my sight...

Orias Oswall
Bloodline Ability: Lucky Happy <Stellar Fortune>
(Captured Pieces)

>Page 4
I have fortune's favor.
You three could never beat me.

Yes, a cur like you could never beat me.
I can overcome any attack.

>Page 5
Buer Blushenko
Bloodline ability:
Heal <Near-Immortal>
As long as he has even a drop of mana, he can bind any wound.
It's the pinnacle of healing abilities.
Yes, he can indeed treat any wound...

BUT IT WILL STILL HURT LIKE HELL.

I despise those who think nothing of pain.
You attacked me out of simple greed...
(pulse)

If you're try and attack me again...

>Page 6
I'll teach you the true terror of pain.
It will be so great, you'll run with your tail between your legs.

(shiver)
Glee-

Glad to see you, Iruma!

My voice squeaked! Stay calm! Stay calm!!
I'm grateful you made the time for me...
It all comes down to this.

>Page 7
You're going to get the support of the student council?

Yeah, the student council holds a lot of influence with the faculty and
If we could get the president's signature...

It's a desperate move, but it could decide everything for us.

This is it!

I'm sure you already know what we're doing, so I'll keep this brief.
I would like a letter of recommendation to support our transfer to Royal One.

Is that... alright?

>Page 8
I'll sign anything you waaant!!
(whip)
...Is what I want to say, but I have to keep my head!!
(giggle)
(snicker)
I know.
The president can't do that out of the blue... But I'm willing to do ANYTHING you ask in return.

Any-!?

I know the student council can't be seen playing favorites,
But please consider my offer...

Why...

>Page 9
Why do you want Royal One so badly?
Iruma, I need to understand...
Otherwise, as president, I can't just nod my head and say yes...

I guess I'd better tell you everything...

I just can't stand the  way the abnormal class is treated... I-

I want everyone in the school to recognise
that these rascals are outstanding demons.

>page 10
(Shock)

>Page 11
Wait, what!? How did I lose!?

I should have completely dominated that game, so how-!?

(Swish)

How-did-my-moves-fail-just-now!?

It's like I tried to lose... Did he...

...No.

It couldn't be...

>Page 12
This girl!?

Ickx Elizabetta
>Her name isn't the typical Japanese romanization of Elisabeth, hence Elizabetta which is a variant in several langauges. Also, her family name is not among the demons listed in the Ars Goetia, and the text for her family ability doesn't reference the family name.

Family Bloodline ability:
Full Love Gauge <Eager To Please>
Anyone well-disposed towards her will be compelled to try and gain her favor.
(Wha!)
(Wave)

My sense of smell, huh...?
You didn't just take my eyes, you took my nose too...

>Page 13
Right! After catchin' her scent, ya moved for OUR benefit... Basically, luck was on our side.
But y'know, stealing sight and smell at the same time really drains my mana, so this was a race against time.

Yeah... This thrill of psuhing my limits while trying to fool others...

Doesn't matter what senses I steal...
This is what gets my heart racin' every time!
This is why I just can't quit gambling.

>Page 14
(Shock)

>Page 15
You have my sincerest apologies
for attacking you at the start of this semester.

Back then, I believed strength was everything, and that the stronger I got
The closer I'd get to becoming the Demon King.

But I was wrong.

>Page 16
No matter how strong I got, or how fierce my will became...
without reflection, I would never gain anything.

My rival made me realize that someone who can't consider the feelings of others could never become the Demon King.

Choosing to attack you was a mistake.
I do not ask for your forgiveness,
but I apologise from the bottom of my heart.

>Page 17
...For a demon to expose their wing roots
Is a sign of utmost respect and sincerity.

I can't believe you'd ever do it...
Quite crafty... I was so shocked that all my anger flew away.
(Pat)
You must have found a good rival.

>Page 18/19
(Bang)

The abnormal class is definitely filled with strange demons.
But, the wild and free-spirited way they live their makes me a bit jealous. I want the people around us to realize their good qualities too.

I understand the value of Royal One.
That's why I know that, if we get it, the students will see us in a new light.

I want people to really look at them.
Believe in the abilities of my classmates,
And help us,
Cl-cl-cl!!
Tooclose tooclose tooclose!!

Amely!
>I do not like "Ameri" as a name. It just don't sound right. And I've seen enough crabsticks to know that you can't trust Asians to spell English names right even when they come up with the characters.

(gasp)(gasp)

>Page 20
Man, I was nervous...
It was all or nothing...

But now...

We've got 'em!

Just one left!
