O . o‽
NGL, casting attack spells at another student should be an automatic disqualification. Don't care if it's harmless or just a prank, it inappropriate for the venue and for the kind of participants that attend.

While the outcome was of course clear from the start, I don't outright hate Quintus and his straight forward approach (and it was either call him Quintus, or, like, Fifthbaronson). He has no need to dance around reasons to want to be with Monica -- it simply begins and ends with them playing chess together.
So no one else but this guy followed her after she ran away and they're alone?
Why is he even going out of his way to confirm her identity, when it seemed to me that he clearly wanted nothing to do with her because of his inferiority complex?

I assume he had enough control on the attack spell to ensure he could divert or cancel it if she didn't defend herself. Otherwise, he's just mad.What if she’s the wrong person?
”Oof, I burned a competitor alive”?
Considering the nobility present, I would expect some sort of security. I might also be remembering wrong, but magic activation can be sensed, so I would expect some people to come soon but I guess that's not going to happen.
Well, she put glasses on, tidied up a bit and changed her last name; he immediately knew it was her, so this action was more to ensure she couldn't pretend to not be the silent witch since she activated her magic silently and no one else can do that.
Don't worry you will I've read the light novel he's an asshole

I really love this part in the anime lol. Cecil spitting water when Monica was proposed was gold!
Bumney McDouche has finally made his move!

CHESS ACCURACY REVIEW
It's not completely impossible the chess shown in this chapter was accurate. After all, we barely get to actually see any of it. Not that I'm bitter or anything. Yes, by all means, show me all the talking heads discussing the game and none of the game itself.
Actually, it may have been even better not to show the game being played at all. That's what the anime did! Episode 10 ends on exactly the same note as chapter 31. Episode 11 begins with the post-game social function. The first eleven pages of this chapter correspond to events that take place entirely off-screen in the anime. But what the anime does show is a scoresheet. Some real chess nerd was brought in for consultant work, since the moves match this real chess game played almost exactly one hundred years ago. Monica is cast in the role of Aron Nimzowitsch, who is best known for the book "My System", collecting a number of strategic concepts and principles that challenge much of the wisdom at the time, and are now widely accepted as the "hypermodern" school of chess. You couldn't find a better fit for "young chess genius with revolutionary ideas wins a beautiful game with a kingside attack" if you tried.
Actually, is that better? The game the anime chose for the scoresheet being very fittingly chosen aside, the manga at least showed glimpses of the actual game, didn't commit a clear and obvious blunder, and stuck closer to the light novel to boot. The panel of a timid, but happy Monica declaring checkmate matches a line from the light novel exactly, for example, and is quite adorable, and is absent from the anime completely, possibly because that game (like most chess games between masters) ended by resignation before the winning side had a chance to deliver checkmate. So why am I remembering the anime so much more fondly? Because it gave me a scoresheet? Maybe I'm the weird one, after all?
... It's a damn good-looking scoresheet, to be fair. The calligraphy is immaculate.

Considering that there are plenty of nobility and more importantly, Royalty around, such actions could be seen as acts of war, or attempted assassination.What if she’s the wrong person?
”Oof, I burned a competitor alive”?
So yeah by all means do it for the memes or for the lawls, but their actions could quite literally get themselves and or their entire family stripped of authority, enslaved, or even executed.
