With Henry and thus the Black Bulls HQ now a spell within his grimoire. There really was not any reason to stay here anymore. Still unsure of what attacked from behind he woke up to find Mimosa and Rebecca statue forms around him. Even if there was probably no one there that could do anything or telling him anything at all. Going to the Royal Capital and seeing what he could learn from there.

"Maybe I am not the only one that managed to escape what this magic was," Asta said looking at Noelle.

She merely cocked her head to the side as she clearly heard him but he was not sure was what that reaction meant though. Hard to tell when they all had a neutral expression on their faces and their body language was that expression either.

Though it was here that Asta noticed that one of them was missing as Noelle, Nero, and Mimosa were present but Rebecca was not for some reason. Before he could go even attempt to look for he felt Noelle's petrified hand on his chest and her other hand pointing to his grimoire.

Flipping to the page that had Rebecca's name on it he was that there was an image that was not there before and it was similar to how Henry's page looked. It seems that when recalled to his grimoire their image appeared in the book and whenever summoned it would seemingly vanish until they were once again recalled.

Although that was merely the case for Rebecca that still left Noelle, Nero, and Mimosa. Who was still standing before him? At least they were until flare up of black anti-magic their forms changed as they did not return to his grimoire but instead all three of them seem to now have a second form just like Nero did apparently.

Of course, Nero's was the same anti-magic bird it had always been only real difference was that it too was petrified just like she was lying on the ground. Next to her was apparently what he had assumed was now Noelle's alternate form which was a small dragon that looked similar to her Sea Dragon Roar attack in appearance. Which did make sense as a lot of Noelle's spell did contain the word dragon within it after all. Then there was what Asta could only assume was Mimosa's alternate form which was a small sunflower. Also fitting since her magic was plant based and her main means of attacking was through forming a giant sunflower like a plant.

"Where and how am I going to carry you three" Asta thought out loud.

Just then all three of them animated with Nero landing on his head which was her usual spot, Noelle wrapped herself around is his right arm and Mimosa did the same around his left.

'Guess that answered that question' Asta thought

Having no other reason to stay here anymore he started his long trek toward the Royal Capital which would far longer than normal since he did not have Finral to just transport him there or anyone else that could merely fly him to the Capital that way
