Don't worry, the arc is finally over this chapter. I'm planning on making this chapter the final chapter before Asta goes full beast mode. Seriously, I have some great fight scenes planned for him in the future. Especially against The Third Eye. Anyways, reviews are always appreciated.

As Asta and Yuno went back to Hage, there was some obvious tension between the two. Yuno, while he knows Asta didn't technically kill Sister Lily, still partially (albeit VERY partially) blames Asta because he was the one who reflected it towards her in the first place.

However, Asta, with the help of Liebe, found out everything. About how Revchi was once a Purple Orca, about how his captain set him up, and about all the other disgusting shit that Revchi did when he got out of prison. The crushing thing is that the Clover Kingdom did absolutely nothing to track Revchi. Considering the Purple Orca's captain's pockets were deep, Asta wouldn't be surprised if the captain was paying the hunters off. As for why, he couldn't figure out.

When they got to Hage, Father found out. To say he was sad would be an understatement.

Everyone would change from that night.

"Where are you going?"

Asta recognized the voice belonging to Yuno, "The magic knights did nothing to find that bastard. If being the Wizard King is just getting sucked off and doing no work, then I'm out."

"You know that's not true"

"Which part?"

"Both. And the magic knights WERE tracking him and were on the verge of finding him. Besides, how did you know about the guy's bounty?"

"I already told you, the demon in my grimoire told me so."

"And I'm a prince"

Asta sighs, "look, I know it's hard to believe, but I also have no magic. So, how do you think I got my grimoire?"

"Asta, everyone gets a grimoire. No matter if they're a slave or a prince. Now go to bed. I've dealt with enough shit today."

"At least let me take a piss"

"Fine, I'm going to bed"

Yuno knew it was a bad idea to leave Asta unattended, but he was too tired to do anything. Besides, Asta could barely help himself in the real world without Yuno's help.

Right?

/./

Yuno regretted last night so much.

Of course Asta wouldn't follow through, of course he'd be a prick about it, of course Yuno fell for the taking-a-piss trick.

So here he is now, looking for Asta in town, "It's hopeless" Yuno thought, "he left at the middle of night, he's probably long gone at this point."

After an hour, Yuno left town and went back to the church. He finally accepted that Asta left everyone behind.

2 months later

The girl had finished packing her things. She couldn't handle it anymore. She had to run away.

In the bag was a change of clothes, some food, her grimoire, 540 gold coins (not including those in her wallet), her wallet (1450 gold coins), and a few other things. "Good enough" she thought. She then took a cloak, put it on, and left.

Later on, the runaway girl was second guessing herself.

"I should just go back now! Maybe they'll still forgive me! No, What happened back then was the last straw! If they don't want me, they can't have me! You get what you deserve."

As she walked through the forest, she heard the crackling of branches. "All your money right now or you die" The robber said. It was obvious that he wasn't new to this. His scar that replaced his left eye told the girl that much. Even more so, was the way he handled his knife. He gripped it with only one hand, which told her that he at least knew how a weapon works. Judging by the way his face looked as well, with the stoic calmness that a professional would usually exert.

Even then, the girl doesn't care. She's determined, and takes out her grimoire. Turns out, she didn't need to.

"Sorry for the inconvenience there, I just love to save people." The new boy said. He too was in a brown cloak, with his grimoire out. It was a crimson color, with a five leaf clover.

"How is that possible?" the girl asked herself, "grimoires are either three leaf clovers or four leaf clovers. So how does he have a five leaf?"

"So, you going to town? You may need some help, seeing well… you know." He gestures to the dead robber.

"Thanks, but I can defend myself" The girl said.

"Well, we're both going to town anyways so... yeah"

The girl humphs, knowing the boy was right, "Fine."

/./

As the two went to town (foreshadowing), they chatted, learning each other's fake names. Thomas for the boy and Martha for the girl. They used fake names since the girl didn't really trust the boy. How could she? The boy had a five leaf clover. Those things don't just happen.

"So, where're you from?"

"Since we are using fake names, do you really believe that I'll tell you where I'm from?"

"Sorry, dumb question."

The two finally got to town, and said their goodbyes.

"Well, i guess this is it." Sensing that Martha seemed off, Thomas asks her "do you have a place to sleep?"

"I can manage."

"How about we share?"

"Care to repeat that?" Martha asked, her tone intensifying as if Thomas called her a slur.

"Iiiiiiiii mean that we can get twin beds? It'll save the cost." That's definitely what he meant. Definitely.

And so, the two had gone to the inn to check in. Both equally tired, they went to bed. Little did either of them know, they were being watched.

"Well well well, looks like the knight in shining armor has found the princess" The man whispered to himself, as he spotted Martha. "But first," the man looked to Thomas, "the knight must slay the dragon"

And that's where I'm gonna end it now. So obviously Thomas is Asta, but who is Martha? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
