In this chapter, we learn that the second round of the game will be held in ten rings. The first ring will be assigned to the strongest candidate, the second ring to the weakest candidate, and the third ring will go to the person who wins the lottery. The winner will advance to the third round, while the loser will be eliminated. This means that the winner's luck will be as important as the opponent's, and that the loser's fate will be decided by his or her luck alone. This is a very different game from the first two rounds, in which the players had to rely on other players to help them. This time, however, the players will be on their own, so they will not be able to seek help from other players. The draw for the rings begins, and everyone is nervous about the opponent. They decide to go first, since they know that the opponent will be stronger than the others. They ask each other if they like the opponent, and if they do, why they are so nervous. The answer is that he is also their teacher's teacher, and he has visited their teacher, teacher nana, the last time he visited her. The second ring is assigned to a person with the strongest power. The other rings are assigned to people with the weakest power. They wonder how they were able to get into the first round, and they decide to give the players a chance.
