First High is aiming to win for the third year in a row at the National Magic High School Goodwill Tournament of Magic Skills, also known as the Nine Schools Competition. Mayumi and the other seniors at First High are known as the most powerful team of their generation, and they are fired up about claiming victory again. However, Airi Isshiki, Shiori Kanou, and Toko Tsukushiin from Third High are determined to stop their winning streak. First High steadily stacks up points in the Nine Schools Competition, but during the Battle Board race, Mari, who was favored to win, is seriously injured in an accident. Mari, who desperately wants First High to take the overall victory in the tournament, asks Miyuki to take Mari’s place in the Mirage Bat event.
Who knew we'd have to worry about
something other than the actual matches?
من كان يعلم أنه يجب علينا القلق بشأن 
شيء آخر غير المباريات الفعلية؟
Wir haben also noch andere Sorgen
als den Wettbewerb.
Además de la competencia,
debemos ocuparnos de esto.
Y yo que creía que solo teníamos
que preocuparnos de los encuentros...
Comme si penser à la compétition
ne suffisait pas…
