Days went on to become weeks, and the rivalry between Cermin and Don still never settled.
Both of them still aspires to become Ronin's best bud in so many ways. Especially when Cermin learned they share the same dorm room.
"But why!?" Cermin exclaimed. "Why can't your master have his own room!? Why does he have to share with his servant!?"
Don took this moment to gloat. "It was Ronin's choice. Hah!"
Don also got another win when he was able to pull Ronin aside to watch his Gridiron try-outs.
At first, that morning, when he told Ronin about it, he seemed disinterested. He was only focused on helping him with putting on his disguise for the the day.
Don had finished binding his chest and wearing the Warrior's uniform, and said:
"Also, I heard that this try-outs will be officiated by the former captain of the team that used to be one of the greatest in the Academy's history, until he sustained a fatal injury."
