Chapter 21: Destruction and Salvation

As the dungeon starts collapsing, everyone struggles to dodge the falling debris.

"The dungeon…" Yuno begins to say as he leaps out of the way of a large falling debris. "It's collapsing!" He says as his grimoire flips through its pages to a certain one. "Wind Creation Magic: Heavenly Wind Arc!" He yells creating his wind transport. "Everybody, get on! We're getting out!" He shouts as Klaus climbs aboard.

'Lightning God's Thunder Boots.'Luck thought using his new magic as he creates his lightning boots only now the lightning was black which catches Noelle's attention.

Luck then moved quickly as he picks up Asta and carries him to Yuno's Heavenly Wind Arc while Noelle and Mimosa follow.

"Now, let's go." Klaus says as Yuno nods his head and turns to his female squad mate.

"Mimosa! Take care of Asta!" Yuno orders.

"I'm on it!" Mimosa says and begins to start healing Asta's wound again. "I'm almost out of magic power. I don't know if I can heal him with what I have left." She says with a worried expression on her face.

"Then I'll help as well." Noelle says kneeling next to Asta. "My new magic; Sea Dragon Slayer Magic has a few healing spells. We'll work together to help Asta." She says placing her hands over Mimosa's. "Sea Dragon's Healing Tears." She says adding her magic to her cousin's as the healing process speeds up.

"Uhn…you've…you've got to…" Asta struggles to say.

"Please, don't speak." Mimosa says.

"Don't strain yourself, Dorksta." Noelle says trying to hide her concern.

"You've got to…help him too…" Asta says referring to the unconscious Mars making Yuno and Klaus gasp in shock.

"Wha-?! What are you saying?!" Klaus asks. "Asta, he's an enemy! Did you forget that he's been trying to kill us?" He asks.

"We were sent here…" Asta begins to say but grunts in pain. "Sent to protect the dungeon's treasure…to…to keep the things here safe not to kill…" He says before passing out again.

Noelle is touched by Asta's declaration and gives a look to Yuno, who nods his head agreeing with his brother's point of view as well as he looks towards Mars on the treasure hall floor.

"He's gotta point. It would be a shame to let such a tough guy like that just die, ya know." Luck says but as they get closer more large pieces of debris falls and blocks their path from rescuing Mars.

"We can't do it! We won't make it in time! We have to go!" Klaus orders as Yuno steers the Heavenly Wind Arc out of the treasure hall while continuing to avoid falling debris.

'Where's the exit?' Yuno wonders frantically looking around and then looks over his shoulder. 'Mimosa can't heal Asta and guide us out at the same time.' He thought.

Luck looks around the dungeon as he uses his new electromagnetism vision to get an infrared look across the electromagnetic spectrum.

"Make a right now! I can guide us out of here!" Luck says with a serious look on his face.

"Sure!" Yuno says putting his trust in Asta's squad mate and steers the Heavenly Wind Arc right following Luck's direction.

"Left here!" Luck shouts.

"Okay!" Yuno shouts turning left down a passage way but then two large debris fall towards them.

"Steel Creation Magic: Violent Rotating Lance!" Klaus yells summons two huge lances with spiral heads and fires them at the incoming debris.

"Noelle, behind you!" Nero yells as he spots more debris falling towards them from his spot on her shoulder.

Noelle halts her healing spell and turns around as her grimoire opens to a certain page.

"Sea Dragon's Reef Burst!" Noelle yells as she creates two streams of water from her hands and then sends them spiraling towards the debris, washing them away as they are reduced to rubble. "My magic…has granted me prefect control!" She says happily.

"They're still coming!" Klaus shouts.

"Right, on it!" Noelle says as she and Klaus destroy more of the incoming debris.

Everyone does their part to get out of the dungeon and save Asta; Yuno steering his Heavenly Wind Arc with Luck guiding him, Klaus and Noelle destroying the debris falling towards them, and Mimosa healing Asta's stomach wound.

[Flashback]

"But you're my friend!" Asta says slashing smoke with his Anti-Magic broadsword. "You're our friend! So, let us help!" He says.

[End Flashback]

'We've gotta save him!' Luck thought with determination.

'I won't let you die!' Mimosa thought increasing her healing spell.

'We will get him out alive!' Noelle thought putting more magic power into her attacks.

'Keep fight!' Klaus thought destroying more debris at a quicker rate.

'There's our exit!' Yuno thought spotting the way out but unfortunately the tunnel collapses before they can reach it. "No! We're trapped!" He shouts.

"Don't stop!" Luck shouts. "Keep going straight ahead! I'll clear the way, just don't slow down!" He says as his grimoire floats beside him and opens to a certain page as he extends both arms before himself, his open palms facing, the fingers pointed towards the exit tunnel. "Lightning God's…" He begins to say as sparks of black lightning are generated between his arms, growing larger and larger, and gradually extending to the surrounding area.

'This magic power…its huge.' Yuno thought wide eyed.

'Black lightning? I've never seen this kind of magic before.' Klaus thought widen eyed as well.

'Wait, Luck's grimoire has transformed. Does that mean he's a Lost Magic user like me and Asta?' Noelle wonders.

"…Charged Particle Cannon!" Luck shouts with his arms completely clad in black lightning and fires a massive concentrated beam of the aforementioned black lightning at towards the collapsed tunnel completely vaporizing the debris and creating a tunnel all the way out of the dungeon.

The Golden Dawn members are in complete shock at what they just witnessed. Noelle smiles at her squad mate's new magic power and then returns her attention to her crush.

"Full speed ahead!" Luck yells panting slightly from the amount of magic power he put into his attack.

"Right!" Yuno shouts snapping out of his shock and enters the exit tunnel as the dungeon starts caving in faster.

Just before the dungeon fully collapses, Yuno's Heavenly Wind Arc bursts out of the tunnel as smoke and rubble fill it up.

"We made it out!" Noelle says happily as she clenches her fist.

"That was so close." Mimosa says releasing a held breath.

"Well that was fun, huh?" Luck asks returning to his crazy happy state.

"Lunatic." Klaus says glaring at Luck.

"Let's head that way." Yuno says pointing towards a clearing not far from them.

As the Heavenly Wind Arc moves away from the collapsed dungeon, none of them were aware that someone else had made it out as well.

"Excellent, I'm saved." Lotus says sitting on his Bustling Lazy Vehicle filled with treasure, his four subordinates, and an unconscious Mars on top of the treasure. "Very considerate of them to clear a path for me like that. Of course, it helped that nobody could see me. Hermit's Thick Smoke is certainly a useful spell. Right there all the time and no a single one of them noticed." He says. "I must say that magic that spitfire kid used was unbelievable and quiet different than what he used in our fight. And that girl's magic was different as well along with that boy's new sword. That must have been the true treasure of this dungeon; magic and weapons no one has ever seen before." He says. 'Anyway, good thing you didn't die back there. That would have been a real shame.' He thought looking up towards the unconscious Mars.

[Flashback]

"Mars, I'm sorry." Fana says.

"Fana…" Mars begins to say seeing her with her fist covered in fire.

"This is the only way…now die." Fana says charging at Mars as he raises his arm to defend himself.

At that moment, his Crystal Magic grows from the ground halting Fana's attack and Mars feels something wet land on his forearm. As he looks at his arm, Mars sees that there is blood on it and when he looks up his is greeted to a horrible sight, Fana impaled by his Crystal Magic.

"AAAAAAAH!" Mars screams in horror at what just happened.

Later, after Mars calmed down and Fana's body was on the floor.

"Why did you…why Fana?" Mars asks still in shock.

Suddenly Fana places her hand on Mars' cheek and he was surrounded by fire causing his wounds to heal up.

'My wounds…they're healing up?!' Mars thought in shock.

"If I hadn't done that…" Fana begins to say weakly. "…you couldn't…have killed me, Mars." She says.

"…" Mars at hearing this goes wide eyed.

"You're the strongest, so…you were the most likely…to survive…" Fana says. "Go see the outside world for me…" She says weakly. "Mars…" She says her final words as she dies.

[End Flashback]

Mars slowly opens his eyes as he feels the wind blowing across his face.

'Fana.' Mars thought remembering his full past.

"Oh, finally waking up over there, Mars?" Lotus asks as he steers his Bustling Lazy Vehicle through the air back towards the Diamond Kingdom.

"Lotus…?" Mars asks seeing his partner.

"That was some good work you did, kid. Just look at all the treasure I was about to salvage thanks to you. Think of all the delicious food this will buy our people back home. My daughters will be eating well after a haul this." Lotus says.

Mars looks to his left side and sees an amazing sunset and a beautiful landscape.

'Its coming back…all of it.' Mars thought remembering Fana's final words to him.

[Flashback]

"Now go see the outside world…you've earned it. Live your life, Mars…for both of us." Fana says.

[End Flashback]

"Lotus…you saved me. You have my thanks." Mars says shocking the man.

"Well, alright." Lotus says stroking his goatee. "It appears you can say thank you." He says.

With the Clover Kingdom's Magic Knights. Asta steers a bit, letting out a few groans as he opens his eyes to see Mimosa on her knees in front of him still wearing her Princess Healing Kimono with Yuno, Noelle, Luck, and Klaus behind her.

"Hey gang." Asta says.

"Asta." Yuno simply says.

"Hi." Noelle says with a smile.

Klaus scuffs as he fixes his glasses, yet again.

"Welcome back." Mimosa says clasping her hands together.

"Hey, you made it." Luck says laughing placing his hand behind his head.

"Glad to see you're okay, Asta." Nero says perching himself on Asta's head.

"Yes, well, I suppose it's a good thing you didn't die." Noelle says turning away to hide her blushing face.

"It was close for a while there, but you recovered very quickly." Mimosa says as her Princess Healing Kimono disappears.

"His sturdiness is about all he's got going for him." Yuno says.

"That's thanks to my Lost Magic which might I remind you is something you don't have." Asta says grinning as Yuno gets a blank look on his face. "I don't need to be ridiculed by my little brother." He says but then doubles over in pain.

"I'm so sorry. I didn't have enough magic power to heal you completely." Mimosa says kneeling next to Asta. "It was more like first aid, so…maybe don't move?" She asks not sure if that the right thing to say.

"It's not that bad really." Asta says. "I'd be dead if it weren't for you. Thanks a lot." He says smiling at her.

"Oh, no it…" Mimosa stutters blushing slightly as she stands up and hides behind Noelle. "Sure." She says with a smile.

'Aww man, she's now starting to fall for my Asta.' Noelle thought shaking slightly.

"You know, I was sure you were going to kick it before we got a chance to fight." Luck says.

"Not a chance. I want to take on that Lightning God Slayer Magic of yours so no dying for me." Asta says before grunting in pain once again. "Not until I become the Wizard King." He says looking up at Yuno.

"Poor big brother, you wish. I am going to become the Wizard King." Yuno says smiling as Asta stands up and places his hand on his shoulder. "Did I give you permission to use me as a crutch?" He asks.

"Oh, shut up and let me lean here for a second." Asta says glaring at Yuno.

"You two…" Klaus says gaining their attention.

"Klaus, sir?" Yuno asks.

"I have something to say." Klaus says walking over to them and does something unexpected; he hugs them. "I'm so very sorry!" He shouts shocking everyone. "I wouldn't acknowledge you because you were commoners. I'm ashamed of myself! You're both excellent Magic Knights…of the Clover Kingdom!" He cries.

"Sir?" Yuno says but doesn't get a response. "Sir? A bit too tight." He says.

"That kind of hurt, Sir Spectacles." Asta says as a bit of blood drips from his mouth.

"That again? After everything I said?" Klaus asks releasing them from the hug.

"You're right, I should start calling you Mister Softy Specs." Asta says sitting on the ground.

"You truly don't know when to quit, do you?" Klaus asks. "Brat." He says.

"Too serious is Klaus' natural state." Mimosa says letting out a giggle.

"Hey Yuno, lets fight!" Luck says walking over to him. "You want to? Pretty please." He says.

"I'll pass." Yuno simply says.

Asta chuckles as he looks over at Noelle and notices her state of clothing. He then begins taking off his torn jacket and button up sleeveless shirt leaving him naked from the waist up.

"Noelle, looks like I'm not the only one with torn clothes so you might want to put this on until we get back to headquarters." Asta says blushing while holding out his red button up sleeveless shirt and putting his jacket back on.

"Huh?" Noelle questions as she looks down and sees the center of her chest area is exposed. "EEEEEEK!" She screams as Klaus gets a nosebleed.

Noelle quickly rushes over towards Asta, snatching his shirt from him accidentally stepping on his stomach wound.

"OW!" Asta yells before passing out.

"Whoops, he's dead." Luck says.

"Not again. She really needs to control herself." Nero says.

"Are you okay?!" Mimosa ask rushing over to him.

"Oh no! What did I do?! I'm sorry, you were trying to be a gentleman and I go and do something like that." Noelle says holding the shirt, so it covered her exposed chest as she kneels next to her crush. "Hang it there.

"Please wake up." Mimosa says as Yuno, Klaus, who was holding a handkerchief to his bloody nose, and Luck make their way over to them.

Asta then regains consciousness as he stares at the two girls surrounding him and smiles making them smile back.

"Thank you, Asta. This was a really sweet gesture." Noelle says blushing as she clutches his shirt tightly to her chest.

"No problem." Asta says smiling at her as he sits up.
