Synopsis[]
Remi and Blyke, both of whom have been severely injured during their battle against Joker, receive visitors. Arlo and Isen enter and inquire to their progress. Remi, crushed by her recent defeat, bemoaned how she had failed to even unmask the Joker despite planning to take a loss to publicly reveal the Joker's identity. As for Blyke, he is faring even worse. Injuries aside, he is so down that he can't even bring himself to speak. Even after he's released, he'll have no place to go other than the dorm he shared with his assailant. Remi apologizes for not heeding Arlo's warnings. However, Arlo opted to forgive Remi instead of scolding her like he usually did.
With John as the undisputed King of Wellston, the (former) royals are left in a state of uncertainty and wonderg what the future would hold under John's rule. Remi wants to take action against John, believing that the Joker's violent actions would inspire other students to follow his example, but Arlo argues against the idea, knowing that another attempt at battling John would result in Remi being beaten, humiliated, and hospitalized again. Arlo tells Remi to stop looking for trouble and advises her to rest before leaving.
After Arlo and Isen left hospital, Blyke chimes in with is own thoughts. The Jack sides with Arlo and admits that he's been having doubts about his powers. With the recent battle against Volcan and two defeats against John, Blyke tells Remi that he is not as strong as he thought and sees the loss of his Jack status as "fitting."
Meanwhile, back at Wellston, Gavin finds himself confronted by Joker. His terror is matched only by his confusion, as he can't figure out what in the world the infamous student even wants with him. The masked demon lunges at Gavin with a punch, but he activates his own ability and dodges. Not crazy enough to fight a destroyer of Royals, Gavin puts all of his effort into retreating. Oddly, Joker does not give chase as usual.
Between classes, John sits in an abandoned classroom to think about Seraphina. He remains vexed by her reaction to him until he's interrupted by an annoyed Cecile. Even though he's the rightful new King of Wellston, he has yet to make a public proclamation of his kingship. Bemused by her insistence that he stop playing games, he simply told her that there was no need to rush. His rank will remain the same tomorrow, so she should take things easy. But Cecile feels only concerned when it comes to her spaced-out King.
