The Big Pickle: The magics syncs perfectly with all the trained he put his body through.
Kamencolin: Let's hope.
Guest 1: Yep.
Guest 2: I fixed that, and fixing it with the rest of my stories.
Guest 3: -_-, Never say that again.
Guest 4: Thank you.
Time has past since Asta was bestowed the power of Iron Dragon Magic and he is still working his body hard to become the great Wizard King he wants to be. We now catch our hero training under the giant demon skull that lies in his town.
"997, 998, 999," says Asta as he is bashing a column like bone with his right arm then his left arm, both as metal columns. He stops punching the column and returns his arms to normal, taking a short break. He proceeds to reach into his pocket and pulls out some magic boosting juice, which tasted disgusting, and some iron nails. He also learned that in order to aid in restoring his magical power, he had to eat certain amounts of iron, which surprisingly didn't hurt when he first tried it but it did freak out his family a bit when they saw him do it. Took forever to calm then down to explain.
"Bottoms up!" said Asta as he throws the nails into his mouth, chewing them before taking a swing of boosting juice. He grimaced at the taste before taking more nails out of his pockets and repeating the magic boosting process. Asta then lays on his back while extending his arm up, covering his fingers in iron scales and smiling.
"Magic, I got me some magic." he said as he got up from his break. "With this power backing me up, I'm gonna kick major ass!" he shouted as he got back up, slamming his right fist into his open left hand. He looked towards to column and grinned. "Back to work. Iron Dragon Club!" He shouted as he pulled his right arm back as it turned into the same metal column as before.
"1000!" Asta yelled as he bashed the bone column, causing cracks to form. "Yuno's probably training just as hard as I am, so I gotta work even harder!" he said as he turned his left arm into another Iron Dragon Club and striking the column.
Both Asta and Yuno were training for the Magic Knight Entrance Exam being held in the capital of the clover kingdom, they had six months to further sharpen their skills so they could become a part of a knight squads. All the while, neither of them were letting go of their dream.
Meanwhile at the hall of grimoires, Father of the church and Sister Lily meeting with wizard in charge of it. The father was curious as to why Asta should take the exam, given that he has only just gained the ability to use magic. The wizard simply stated that that Asta insisted and there was nothing he could do before teasing Father that he would miss Asta, seeing as how he raised him and Yuno. The father started to deny as Sister Lily agreed, saying that Asta will fail anyway and the other orphans will miss him. Sister Lily understood his worries but said to give them a chance on their own, let them face the world's challenges with their own strength and carve their own path. The wizard agreed with Lily before saying Asta will fail and come right back, which Father supported without a second thought before moving to a new topic.
"So, what's with that magic Asta's using?" Father said, curious to this new and unheard of magic. "It seems so unlikely that he would gain such a powerful and mysterious magic."
"No idea, there's demon magic but there has never been any records of dragon magic" said the wizard. "Perhaps it was a magic someone discovered but never brought it to public eyes."
The wizard then turns to the window and thinks of the future, of what will unfold with Asta and his new dragon magic. And speaking of Asta, he is currently running home with all his might from his training in the skull.
"The moment I reach the church is the moment I rest!" He shouted as he ran past Yuno, who was carried an enormous amount of chopped fire wood using magic.
Yuno saw his orphan brother running and decides to turn it into a race, now they're both running with all their might as the gate to the church comes up. They were neck and neck until Asta used the Iron Dragon Club to replace his left foot and spring to the finish. Asta celebrated his victory until the other said he cheated.
"I did not!" Asta yelled.
Night soon fell and everyone got some sleep before morning came again as Asta is training under the monster skull once more. Asta is standing before another bone column with a target painted on it.
"Iron Dragon Kunai!" he said as pointed knifves appears in his hands. He then throws them at the target, striking all over it but new in the bullseye. He grumbles before making more for another try but then he hears something behind, Asta turns around and sees it's one of his friends from the church, the boy with the brown, spiky hair.
"Oh Nash, what's up?" Asta said as the boy walks closer.
"Nothing much, I was bored and decided to come watch an idiot do something stupid." Nash said harshly.
The two then argued back and forth, talking about the exam and how Asta plans to pass it.
"You just got magic and compared to the rest of the world, you have little experience using it." Nash said as he look away. "You'll never pass."
"Don't worry, I got this." Asta said as he turn his hand into the Iron Dragon Sword. "I've got magic now and I'll get into a squad for sure. And then I'll-"
"No you won't!"Nash yelled interrupting him. He then explained how his dreams didn't matter for them because they were poor. After that, Asta approached him and cocked his fist back before slamming it into Nash's head!
"OW! What was that for?!" Nash yelled as he clenched his head.
"To knock some sense into you," retorted Asta before continuing "it doesn't matter if you're poor or not, nothing can stop you from making your dream come true if you believe you can!"
Nash was about to reply until he saw the spikes on sword that replaced Asta's hand spin wildly before he charged at the column and sliced through it multiple times. Asta stood proud in the sunlight as his arm returned to normal, looking back to a surprised Nash with a smile on his face. Later that night, a feast of many potato dishes were scatter across the church dinner table. It was a celebration for Asta and Yuno (mostly Yuno) before they set of for the capital.
