Chapter 17: Destroyer

Klaus continues to stare in shock and disbelief as Asta faces off against Mars with Yuno behind him.

'No…this is absurd. Three members of the Golden Dawn couldn't take him, and we couldn't fight his powerful magic…but that…that commoner from the Black Bull was about to wave off an attack like it was nothing.' Klaus thought but then hears the sound of loud footsteps behind him as he turns to see the Talos Puppet coming at him. 'No!' He shouts in his mind.

"Mine!" Luck shouts striking the puppet with his Thunder God's Boots, destroying the head completely. "Fragile, huh?" He asks seeing the puppet roll on the ground before coming to a stop, motionless.

'He-! Yes, he's the one who caused trouble at the entrance exams by thrashing his opponent more than necessary! "Luck the Cherry Berserker"!' Klaus says recognizing Luck. 'So, he's the third member sent from the Black Bull?! I knew he was trouble.' He says gripping his head in frustration. "What's wrong with me?! How could I let the Black Bull save me?!" He asks causing Luck to look at him in confusion.

Noelle makes her way over to Mimosa, who as still in her Dream Healing Flower Basket, with a worried look on her face.

"Mimosa!" Noelle says to her cousin.

"Oh, I wish you hadn't seen this…it's shameful. I suppose you were right about me, Noelle. It's just as you said, I'm a dim bulb." Mimosa says weakly smiling.

"It's true, you're rather lacking in the sense department." Noelle says as her grimoire hovers next to her and flips to a certain page. "But that's alright. Water Creation Magic: Nest of the Sea Dragon!" She shouts creating her water dome around Mimosa's Dream Healing Flower Basket. "Because I'm here now, and I will protect you!" She shouts holding out a wand.

"Thanks, Noelle." Mimosa says with a smile.

"Are you the guy who took out the Golden Dawn team?!" Asta asks in angry.

"And what if I am?" Mars asks as his grimoire turns a page. "The weak are the first to go. Crystal Creation Magic: Talos Puppet Cluster." He says creating a large number of Talos Puppets at once. "That's all it is." He says.

"Wha…" Klaus asks as his eyes widen. "All at once! Look at those numbers." He says as Luck gets excited.

"On the battlefield, it's pointless…" Mars begins to say as he stands in the center of his Talos Puppet Cluster. "…for the weak to exist. I was born…to break people like you." He says.

"Oh yeah? Iron Dragon Slayer Mode." Asta says activating his Iron Dragon Slayer magic as his hair gains dark gray highlights. "Then go on ahead…" He says and in a burst of speed appears behind Mars. "…try breaking me! Iron Dragon's Scales + Iron Dragon's Hard Fist!" He yells covering his body in iron scales and aims his fist at Mars but the minute he makes contact, Mars had replaced himself with a Talos Puppet that was instantly destroyed.

"I plan to." Mars says in the air with a newly created Laevateinn and swings his left arm down at Asta as the crystal sword mimics his movement.

"Ice Dragon Slayer Mode!" Asta shouts as the highlights in his hair change to icy blue and jumps in the air towards the Laevateinn. "Ice Dragon's Crushing Fang!" He yells coating his elbows with ice spikes and slashes the giant crystal sword in half.

Asta uses the broken sword as a running platform so he can propel himself towards Mars only for him to restrain him in place using crystals that appear around Asta's feet. Asta reaches to his left side and pulls out his Anti-Magic broadsword and scraps away the restraining crystals. Asta then jumps towards Mars and slashes him in the chest launching him into the ceiling, creating a smokescreen. The diamond mage used this cover to his advantage as he creates giant, crystal boulders and launches them towards Asta. Asta lands back on the ground and takes a breath before swinging his broadsword with the flat-side meeting the incoming boulder and sending it right back at Mars. This took Mars by surprise at the boulder hit him dead on but didn't phase him as he flew towards Asta with his left hand coated in crystal to attack. Asta saw this and smirks as he pulls his right hand back causing it to be coated in ice.

"Ice Dragon's Breakdown Fist!" Asta yells as he meets Mars' attack with his own, causing a deadlock until Asta overpowers Mars and sends him flying into the water.

'He's strong!' Noelle, Luck, Yuno, Klaus, and Mimosa thought as they witnessed Asta's display of power.

"Aw, man." Luck says and starts attacking the Talos Puppets, destroying with just a single attack. "I wanted to take him on. Guess these guys will have to do!" He shouts continuing his attack while laughing happily.

"Wind Magic: Crescent Kamaitachi!" Yuno shouts sending out a wind blade and destroys three Talos Puppets.

Klaus was paying attention to his surroundings as he stares at Asta with a look of jealousy and frustration.

"Impossible! When we first met this peasant had almost no mana but now its almost at captain's level and he was able to go head to head with the enemy! How can he do this?!" Klaus wonders out loud as he didn't notice a Talos Puppet about to attack him until it was hit by a water spell.

"You've been whining for the past several minutes! Just shut up! Asta has two different kinds of power, that broadsword you saw him use allows him to negate magic, he can even negate his own magic to make it seem like he has no magic at all. His second power is a lost magic known as Elemental Dragon Slayer Magic, something that hasn't been seen since the era before the first Wizard King." Noelle says with her hands on her hips.

"The ability to negate magic and the power of a dragon?!" Klaus asks in shock. 'What an unsuitable power for peasants!' He thought. "Then fortune simply blessed him with those powers!" He shouts adjusting his glasses.

"Was it luck or something else…you can tell just by watching him." Noelle says staring at her crush.

The dual grimoire wielder looked towards the water he sent Mars into as he saw his grimoire floating above the surface.

"Hey, what gives? Done already, ya jerk?!" Asta asks shouting pointing his broadsword towards the water.

The grimoire just floated as it gave off a bright light and the room shook like an earthquake was happening. Crystals started to emerge from the water and form something as a wave of them came at Asta. Asta raised his sword and slashes the incoming crystals, splitting them in half only for them to produce new crystals that crush him.

"Asta!" Yuno shouts as something started to come up from the water.

"Crystal Creation Magic: Heavy Armored Titan!" Mars shouts emerging from the water with his body covered by crystals form the shoulders down forming armor that take a humanoid shape, complete with arms and legs. "Tell me, boy! Just…what…are you…?!" He shouts his question.

"Fine, I'll tell you, since you asked." Asta said while breathing heavily as the icy blue highlights in his hair vanish. "I'm someone who was born without magic for the fifteen years of my life." He says.

"What?! Fifteen years?!" Klaus asks in shock. "Then he really did just luck into his magic negating abilities. But then how is he able to use magic if he was born without it?" He wonders.

"It wasn't until one day, I found a chamber underneath the skull of the demon killed by the first Wizard Magic and inside it contained two grimoires. The dragon slayer grimoire infused me with an enormous reserve of mana while the Anti-Magic grimoire granted me the ability to negate my own magic, so I could wield it as well. These two books are what gave me my power and gave me a new hope to achieve my dream." Asta says.

"So that's how he gained magic, but how could he have been chosen by two grimoires?" Klaus asks.

"Even so, that doesn't matter now." Asta mumbled as he reached into his pockets and started chewing on the remained of his iron stash. "Cause I'm still gonna be the Wizard King!" He shouts getting back on his feet with a little bit of his energy restored. "I'll fight and bleed all I have to but I will prove that I can do it!" He yells.

'Look at his body! How hard has he trained?! The Wizard King?! Is he serious?!' Klaus wonders.

"…" Mars remains silent as Asta's words remind him of something from his past.

[Flashback]

"What do you want to be when you grow up, Mars?" A young girl's voice is heard in Mars' head.

[End Flashback]

"I…only break things. Everything!" Mars shouts raising his right crystal hand to attack Asta.

"You break everything, huh?!" Asta asks in anger. "The Wizard King protects everything! Like I'd lose to a guy like you!" He yells.

'Even if Asta can counter this guy's attack, Asta would still move to slow. He needs to move fast like I do.' Luck thought before an idea popped into his head. 'Wait that's it. Asta said he gained a new element on his first mission by eating ice. So, let's try this.' He thought. "Lightning Magic Thunderclap Crumbling Orb." He says creating a ball of lightning and aims it at Asta. "Asta, take this!" He shouts firing the orb at his teammate.

[Flashback]

"We were born to protect…everyone in this country." The young girl says.

[End Flashback]

Asta looks over his shoulder to see the incoming lightning orb and time slows down as his Elemental Dragon Slayer grimoire flips to a blank page and yellow mana began to come out of the book and mixed into the orb. Asta reaches out and grabs the orb and begins to eat the lightning ball. Time then returned to normal as Mars' attack continues its path towards Asta.

"You're in the way…get lost, you piece of gravel!" Mars yells slamming his crystal hand onto top of Asta kicking up dust.

"Asta!" Noelle screams thinking he was caught in the attack.

Just then a bolt of lightning appeared from the dust cloud and hit the ceiling as it forms a body. The lightning takes form revealing it to be Asta with yellow highlights in his hair and lightning crackling around him as he stood upside down on the ceiling.

"Behold my newest Dragon Slayer magic. Lightning Dragon Slayer Mode!" Asta shouts as the Golden Dawn and Mars stare in shock while Noelle and Luck smile at the teammate. "And gravel may be gravel, but me?" He says and disappears in a lightning flash only to reappear behind Mars. "I'm gravel…" He says clenching his fist and raises it above his head. "…that shatters diamonds! Resounding through the air, the roar of thunder, plunge from the heavens and reap destruction! RAGING BOLT!" He yells as a large bolt of lightning appears and then descends upon Mars from the air.

"AAAAAAAHHHHHH!" Mars screams in pain as he was paralyzed in place but somehow was still able to stand.

"You are strong, surviving that attack, but this will finish you!" Asta shouts appearing above Mars. "Lightning Dragon's Jaw!" He yells as he locks his hands together in a tight fist and swings them down onto Mars, both smashing him into the ground creating a destructive circular wave, destroying the Heavy Armored Titan.

[Flashback]

"Aaaahhh!" Young Asta yells charging forward against the wind towards a young Yuno. "You see…you can do anything…if you don't give up." He says breathing heavy with his stick hitting young Yuno on top of his head, who was in complete shock by Asta achievement.

[End Flashback]

"Who's going to the treasure hall?! We are, the Magic Knights of the Clover Kingdom!" Asta yells with his fist raised in the air as he unleashes a dragon like roar.
