Time To Answer The Reviews:

Guest: Glad that you enjoyed the Finale of The Dungeon Arc. It was difficult for me to look up all of the Weapons for Mars, but I had fun with the boy. She did actually and basically, any spells that Mars gets, Fana gets and vice versa. The only exception is with Flame Spirit Magic with the Salamander. I do plan on having both of them use Heraclean Armour in the Forest of Witches. Thank you and I will.

"Are you sure that this will go well, Vanessa?" asked Noelle as she looked up at the wine drinking Black Bull. Both of them were riding on Vanessa's broom after the battle against The Diamond Mages, with her battling against Juden Yuki. The reason why Noelle wasn't on her broom was specifically because she still doesn't have enough control of her magic.

The pink haired woman softly laughed at that, "Of course it will, sweetie, nothing bad will happen." said Vanessa as she looked forward towards the Capital Of The Clover Kingdom for some goods.

Even though Vanessa was surprisingly a nice person to talk to and she feels safe to be around her, it didn't ease her up in the slightest as she looked at the broom.

"But I broke my new wand after getting it for only 2 months! I am afraid how she would react." said Noelle as she didn't know how Code would even react at how quickly she broke her new wand. Even though The Elder Wand that she got from Klaus was alright, she didn't trust it would work out compared to one that was made by a professional.

"Think of it as someone that broke their broom, it won't be that bad. Code is someone that I fully trust won't do anything to you. She is my friend." said Vanessa as Noelle continued to frown.

"Well, if you trust her, that is good, but I don't know. I don't want to get injured the day after we got back from the Dungeon." said Noelle as Vanessa chuckled at that.

Seeing Asta, Noelle and Luck come back looking like they have been through hell itself as their entire attire was sliced up, burned, destroyed and damaged in many ways with Asta having a scar on his stomach which they described was from a Crystal Mage, that has 2 Attributes, was not in their Bingo list.

Not to mention the fact that they got back from members of the Golden Dawn of all people. Who looked as destroyed as everyone else. Yami was never more interested in the details of a mission before until now as how did Goldilocks' squad even do something as simple as dropping his team to his base was not something he was expecting.

Now, it was a good thing that they had Midori and Vanessa. Vanessa was the sole reason why Noelle even bothered to go outside the day after because she was the wielder of the rare Thread Magic, which allowed her to manipulate threads. She was so experienced that she managed to fix everyone's attire in a matter of seconds, looking brand new. Not to mention she stitched up Asta's scar so he could heal properly.

Her precision with her Thread Magic was second to none as not even an experienced doctor could be able to stitch up a massive scar like Asta's.

And Midori was extremely helpful with their recovery. Sure, she might be too interested in books, but she was actually a really competent mage with her Leaf Magic, as she was the squad's only Mage with Recovery Magic that they are aware of with her having a Spell by the name of Leaf Recovery Magic: Aromatherapy, which released a pleasant smell that once inhaled begins to fix up any and all inside damages and recovers bruises on the skin.

They don't regain stamina, but she was able to make them able to walk after a few minutes returning there. She wasn't on the level of Mimosa or even the best doctor of The Clover Kingdom, Owen Aqua, but she was a really decent Recovery Mage compared to the others.

"If that happens, guess we have to pay Midori a visit again." Vanessa joked as Noelle rolled her eyes.

"Not helping, Vanessa."

"Right, sorry." said Vanessa as she then looked at her squadmate, "Still though, there is nothing to worry about. Code is a person that I fully trust no matter what happens and if she gets mad, I will protect you. That is a promise." said Vanessa as Noelle looked at her with focused eyes.

"You mean, you will protect me?" asked Noelle.

"Of course, Noelle, I won't be letting someone land a hand on you." said Vanessa as she smiled at her, "No matter what, you are my squadmate and my friend, but if you want to, you can think of me as your big sister." said Vanessa with a wink as Noelle quietly gasped hearing that.

In her entire life, she had no one to protect her from the bullying, or more accurately, abuse from her older siblings Solid and Nebra Silva for many reasons. One for being the cause of her mother's death as it even drove her father to leave all of them behind, leaving Nozel at the age 16 to care for them.

Another because of the sole reason of her not being able to control her magic correctly as a royal, which was basically like not being able to walk around when you are 5. Even when she was training every day to control her magic, nothing was going right at the moment, making everything worse for her as not even Nozel, her oldest brother, being able to stop them from the abuse.

Here is Vanessa Enoteca, a woman that she thought was more like a drunk witch that only cares about wine and cheese, was treating her more correctly in the span of less than 3 is not even mentioning the fact that is not even her being biased as that is how she treats everyone from the Black Bulls with the sole exception of Yami and Finral.

She can get Yami as that is their squad captain, but Finral? I guess it was due to him being a wannabe womanizer, but it can not be that. Maybe she has…

No, that was impossible. There is no way a girl would have feelings over that man.

Still, Noelle looked at her with wide eyes, but then smiled, "I think… I think I will be doing that."

After a few minutes of flying on Vanessa's broom, they finally landed in the town of Kikka, where they previously went there to get her previous wand. They were then walking throughout the town of Kikka which was filled with vendors selling a couple of interesting gadgets and food, but they didn't pay attention to that.

They then continued to walk around until they saw a familiar ally as they then walked straight towards the ally. Noelle hated how dirty it was with Vanessa not paying any attention to it as they continued towards their goal which was… a dead end. Legit, it was a wall that stopped them from going anywhere.

Now, normal people would turn around and then walk back where they came from, but the Black Bulls were anything, but normal as Vanessa then walked through the wall like she was a man trying to sell a drink made out of cherries or a boy going to a wizard school with Noelle walking towards it, slowly as she wasn't used to it.

Then the entire place changed for them, as the entire place was lit up by a few torches around the entire arena as it looked out of a palace. It was dark and gloomy with several hooded figures on their stands, trying to sell their own stuff like a Communication Device, some Magic Items, a pack of weird cards or more.

They even saw that old woman that got her bag of winnings stolen from (and who destroyed Sekke in Poker), which was saved thanks to Sekke and Asta with the former acting like he did from a tiny knife stab, playing a game of Poker with another sucker from the Aqua Deer with a shit eating grin on her face.

That is not even mentioning the casino that scammed Magna of all of his pay.

They ignored all of them as they then walked around for a certain store or a merchant to be exact as they recognized a figure that was quite essential for Noelle's progress as a mage.

It was Code. She wore a blue hooded mage as she had orange hair that was styled of a ponytail as a part of her hair went down to her side, with her having blue eyes and purple earrings. From her hoodie, she wore a black jacket that was short sleeved, with her wearing a purple dress and white leggings. She then smiled at the buyer, "Here it is sir, your bracelet to increase your firepower is here!"

"This looks sick as hell!" yelled the boy, who had pink hair with brown eyes and wore a red hoodie with a black jacket and pants with red shoes, "Man, I love this! I love the colours, they look so fitting for me."

Code smiled, "Glad that you do and that will be around 2000 yul." said Code as the boy was taken aback from that.

"What?! That is so much! I didn't expect to cost that much! But… I need it to continue my family business…" the boy sighed as he took out a bag of yul and placed it on the table, "Will this be enough?" he asked.

Code looked at it and nodded, "Sure is. Pleasure doing business with cha." The boy took the bracelet and began to walk out.

"Yeah, yeah… I hope this works out in the end." said the boy as he walked passed the two Black Bulls.

"It will, don't worry! The bracelet will last at least 3 years if you don't overuse it!" yelled Code as then she turned to see Vanessa and Noelle, "Oh! Hi! Vanessa! Noelle! How've you been the last two months?!"

"Oh, well it is actually going pretty well, Code, with a few missions here and there, checking out a few wineries around the Kingdom and having a good time with my Squad." answered Vanessa with a smile on her face as she looked at her friend as Code then turned to the Silva.

"O-Oh, well, a few missions like Vanessa and I, uh,... explored a Dungeon yesterday." said Noelle as Code's interested piqued up.

"A Dungeon, you say? That is quite impressive for a rookie. So where was it? Near a Village? A mountain? Somewhere that is like a beach?" asked Code as she leaned on the counter.

"Well, close to a village, but more specifically, on the border of the Clover and Diamond Kingdom." Noelle noticed how Code's face dropped for a few seconds after she heard the Diamond Kingdom as then she changed it with a smile, mentally telling herself it was more of personal thing, "Which, I cleared it like anyone should expect, I am royalty."

Vanessa sighed, "We know, darling, we know. You say that every day for the past few weeks."

"Have to agree with Vanessa here, you said that even when you got your wand, so thank you for the reminder." said Code as Noelle took a few steps backwards hearing that.

"Hey, don't treat me like that, I am ro-" Before they just proved their point against Noelle, she coughed into her hand, trying her best to change the subject, "Anyway, how were you in the past few months?"

"Well, the usual. Making new gadgets, magic items and weapons for a couple of mages, Magic Knights, some regular folk, you know the usual." said Code as she then she remembered something, "Wait a minute, you don't come to the Black Market to catch up with someone, so why are you guys here anyway?" asked Code as Vanessa nudged Noelle.

Noelle turned to Vanessa, who gave her a gentle smile as she then sighed, "We-Well, I need some help with my wand."

Code then beamed, "Oh! Really? Okay, that is a bit too long without help, but I get it. Do you need me to configure it to make more comfortable to hold it, a way to withdraw it in battle faster or…?"

"Um, I… uh… I don't know how to say it." Noelle turned her head sideways.

"Hmm? Say what? Come on, I don't bite. Just show me." assured Code as Noelle then gulped.

"Okay, if you say so." said Noelle as she then pulled out her Elder Wand and gave it to Code's hands as she looked at it.

"Alright, let me see- what the hell is this?" Code blinked as she saw the new wand in her hand. Sure it does look powerful, but it is just that. A powerful looking wand. Not one that can be used for anyone that has trouble with mana control. Not to mention, it does not even work in the slightest for defensive Spells.

"Ohm, that is the, uh… the… the wand that I us…" Noelle could not even speak as she was afraid what Code will do to her.

"Noelle." The Water Mage 'eep'ed once she heard her name be heard from Code's mouth, "Silva. Tell me right now what the hell happened to my wand?" asked Code with eyes that could make Yami take a step backwards.

"I broke it." The Rejected Royal said with closed eyes as Code looked at her.

"You broke it?!" screamed Code with eyes that could kill a man.

"Yeah! It broke into two during my mission and I-" Noelle couldn't even finish her sentence as a Mana Bullet was shot straight towards her, making her and Vanessa jump out of the way.

They then looked at Code, her hoodie no longer covering her face as it was filled with veins all around her face and hands, as she held up her wand straight at the two, "How dare you snap my wand into two!? You've gotten a lot of nerve!" roared Code as the mana coming out of her was insane enough that it could make an experienced Magic Knight cover in fear.

"You are pitifully inexperienced! That is why it broke! Otherwise, my gadgets would have never snapped like a twig!" yelled Code as she pointed a wand straight towards Noelle, "I will kill yo-"

Suddenly, her hand went upwards making Code look at her in confusion. Then she looked at it and saw pink threads covering her entire arm, "Now, now, there is no reason to be hasty, isn't there?" asked Vanessa with a smile so genuine that would make a con artist jealous. Vannessa then narrowed her eyes at her friend, "Right?"

Code instantly knew what that meant and she sighed, "You are right, I am sorry." Said Code as she then looked at the shocked Noelle with her lowering her hand, making the threads disappear, "And I am sorry to you as well for those harsh words, trying to kill you thing, it is just… Forget about it, I am sorry."

"No, no, it is fine, I promise you. If it makes you feel better, it wasn't on purpose, it was during battle by a strong mage." said Noelle as Code then smiled.

"I guess that makes it better… I guess." Code sighed, "Look, I will go make you a new wand that is better than before, but I swear if you break that one, I will-" She then saw Vanessa shooting her a glare as she backed out her threat, "give you a stern scolding young lady, understood?"

Noelle tilted her head in confusion, "I… guess?"

The two Black Bulls then saw Code walk into her workshop as Vanessa patted her on the back. It actually went better than what she expected.

And she saw that woman break a man's spinal cord because he put a ketchup stain on her new equipment.

All they had to do was wait for her new item to use.

INTRO!

(A/N: Play PAiNT it BLACK)

We begin by seeing 2 of Asta's swords the Demon-Slayer Sword and the Demon-Dweller Sword as then we see at first a 5 Leaf Grimoire as it then changed into an amulet by Yuno as the Grimoire turned into a 4 Leaf Grimoire, as then both Grimoires appeared as we get a close up shot of both Yuno and Asta as Asta's side showed more of a demonic look while Yuno was more angelic. Then, several Grimoires began flying around the scenery. A couple got into front row as we see the Black Bulls with as then it changed into the Golden Dawn the next shot.

I would always close my eyes

And cower at reality

We start by seeing images of The Black Bulls as the background were mostly red or blue, as it was first Asta having a ready look, the next was Noelle looking at her wand, the next Luck looking up the sky with a smile on his face, Magna with the Black Bull flag, as Midori ended up tripping, as then it showed the Golden Dawn with Yuno looking up at the sky, Mimosa covering her mouth with her hand, Klaus fixing his glasses, Alecdora with his usual annoyed face.

I can't stand the idea

We then see Finral looking at the side as he was sitting down as the next one showed Langris with a calm look on his face as if he was looking at his older half brother, as Vanessa looked drunk, but still in her witch uniform, Charmy staring at her cupcake with Gauche looking at his mirror, as we then see Letoile looking fixing her glasses as she saw her compass, David with his usual carefree look.

Of just making excuses to give up

Then we see Grey and Gordon off to a corner, to shy to even speak to someone as then we see Hamon and Siren having a conversation as then we see Captain Yami and Captain William.

Stand right there

I don't want to be near you

Any minute now

We then cut to all of the Captains standing on the line as Yami, Charlotte, Nozel, Rill, Dorothy, Fuegoleon and Jack The Ripper had a white background as Gueldre, William and Julius had a black background.

Just wait right there

When we got to William, we see a calm looking man with sharp ears and braids as he had a wide grin on his face with a stone tablet.

The decisive battle is still a long way off

But when we got to Julius, all we saw was a flash of a man like Julius, but with black hair and a black star on the opposite side where it should be with a calculating look on his face, as it then it got back towards Julius.

Black and blue

We then see Yuno, Asta, Noelle, Mimosa, Luck and Klaus all ready as the opposite side showed Lotus Whomalt, Mars, Juden Yuki and Zvuk Brzi.

I'll give up on giving up

We see Juden throw out a huge spark of earth, wind, lightning, water and flame magic all put together as while Klaus tried to stop it, Noelle stepped forward and blasted out a powerful Sea Dragon's Roar.

And get the world on my side

We cut then to a battle against one of the Shining Generals, Zvuk as he was battling against Luck and Mimosa at the same time as Mimosa more brought the support as Luck went in all on the offensive.

I'm looking for the reason I'm alive

We then see the strongest Shining General, Mars, looking down at the killed body of his best friend with wide eyes as he was covered in flames and there were crystals all over the place. As he then roared in power as he gained a new armour that was like that of a God by the name of Heraclean Armour as the two readied themselves against him.

Every time somewhere under this sky

We then see Luck grinning to himself as he remembered the past of his mother, Astrape, hugging him as he stood there shocked.

Breakthrough the tearful nights

We then see both Yuno and Asta get together as Yuno threw Asta with all of his might against Mars with his new Heraclean Armour as he closed his eyes.

And head where the light shines

Once the eyes reopened, we see Yuno looking at a small green fairy with a shocked expression on his face.

I want to keep my promise

We see Yuno and Asta fistbumping each other with grins on their faces once they did.

I'll deliver it to you

Both Yuno and Asta's Grimoires opened up as they threw their hands at each other, ready for a new battle.

Shape of love

(A/N: End Theme.)

After about 20 minutes, Noelle tested out her new wand which looked like the previous one from before, but this one was sharper and had an aquatic feel to it, which she appreciated as it did look stylish on her.

After they paid her a total of 12 000 yul which was practically pocket money for Noelle, they returned to the Black Bull's base. And what was currently happening was kind of new.

Magna and Gauche were playing Poker with the former getting his ass kicked by the latter, Finral crying his eyes out, probably because he got rejected by another girl in the past 30 minutes, Charmy eating a whole mountain of food while giving the Spatial Mage some of his favourite comfort food which was lasagna, Gordon feeding Nero some bird food, Grey… being Grey.

What about Asta, Midori, Yami and Luck?

For the last two, Yami was crushing the head off Luck as the boy was screaming in pain, kicking his feet up in the air, a smile not on his face which shows that this actually hurt.

Yami's face was that of a scowl, "So let me get this straight, brat." after he said that, they thought that he broke the kid's skull, "After I specifically told you to look over of the newbies, you thought it would be a better idea to fight a prick by just sensing his mana, leaving them defenseless in a Trap Magic filled area and because of that, if Goldilocks' Team weren't there, they would have been killed?"

"AHHH! AHHH! AHH! AHH! AHH! I AM SORRY! I AM SO SORRY, I WON'T DO THAT AGAIN! AHH!" Luck was gripping Yami's hand so he didn't accidentally die.

"Oh so you were planning on doing that before, eh?" asked Yami as dark mana continued to flow around him.

"NO! OF COURSE NOT! THAT WOULD BE SILLY! A MOVE ONLY A GOOBER WOULD DO!" Luck was praying to all Gods on the planet that he doesn't get killed off by his Captain.

"That's right only a goober would do because a goober would know how to anger his squad and more specifically, his Captain. I am going to kill you for doing that shit." said Yami as he actually made the pain more unbearable for Luck as the boy screamed in pain, making the two that got back from Kikka cringe at that.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH! HELP ME! GUYS, HELP ME!" yelled Luck so hard that they thought it was their favourite small gremlin with no magic, but no, it was the Cheery Berserker.

"Hmm? Didja hear that Gauche?" asked Magna as he looked at his squadmate.

"Sounds like a punk bitch that ignored the Captain's order." said Gauche as he looked at his hand.

"Ahh, that is what I heard as well." said Magna as they then revealed their hands as then Gauche laughed at him, with Magna covering his face in shame with his hands, "GOD DAMN IT!"

"hope you enjoy this, nero. i asked midori for a book of what every animal eats so i can give you the food that i think you would love." said Gordon with a creepy smile on his face which Nero shockingly didn't mind as they kept on eating the food.

"I can't believe it, Charmy, again! For the 12th time this week, I got rejected by the most gorgeous woman I have ever seen in my entire life," cried Finral as he took a bite of his lasagna.

"Finral, every girl you have ever met is the most beautiful girl." said Charmy as she then took a bite out of her cupcake.

"Because all girls are beautiful, okay?" Finral dropped his head in shame, "I will never get a girlfriend." Charmy patted him on the back.

"Don't be like that, silly, you will find the one, one day." said Charmy as Finral smiled at that.

"Thanks, Charmy. Say what do you think abo-"

"No."

"Okay." Finral dropped his head once more as he bit into his lasagna.

"Is Finral trying to flirt with another woman, again? And he calls me flirtatious." Vanessa placed a hand on her hip as she saw her squadmate being the most desperate man on the planet. "Oh, it will be alright, Finral! If ya want to, we can go."

"Yeah, right, you will just be drunk again like the last time." said Finral as he knew her better than everyone.

"Dang, you got me." said Vanessa as Noelle looked at her.

"Why on Earth would you ask Finral that? Are you that desperate for a boyfriend as well?" asked Noelle as Vanessa rolled her eyes.

"Look at everyone else and think about that." Noelle then looked at the wannabe gangster, a siscon, a sadistic captain, a psychotic battle maniac, whatever Grey is, Gordon and the short gremlin as she realized that out of everyone here, Finral was the best option, "And?"

"...Touche." said Noelle as she then pulled out her wand, "Well okay, I will be training mana control while you can go dri-" she then looked around to see where she was, but then spotted her on a couch, in her underwear drinking a bottle of wine. "Why did I not expect that? Wait a sec, where are Dorksta and Midori?"

"Oh those numbskulls? Oh, they are looking for herbs that would help out with their scars and to rest. Now, if you don't mind… I am going to kill a troublemaker." said Yami as he then continued to squeeze the life out of Luck. Noelle nodded as she then walked outside of the base with a man with red hair looking at the wand with wide eyes.

"Wait a second… that wand… it can't be…"

Meanwhile, Asta and Midori were looking for herbs with Midori having a basket in her hands with Asta looking all over the field for some herbs. For some strange reason, he got a request that Midori should never go into a forest alone or at least without a Flame Mage or Captain Level mage, so they were at a field.

Midori was peacefully humming as she bent down picking up herbs and carefully examining them. She smiled as it was a herb that can turn into tea that people can drink from when they are sick.

"HEY, MIDORI! IS THIS GOOD?!" yelled Asta as Midori jumped as he ran towards her with a couple of herbs in his hand.

"Ahh! You scared me, Asta!" Midori fixed her glasses as she looked at the magicless boy with a couple of herbs in his hand.

"Oh, sorry, didn't mean to. I just wanted to show a couple of herbs that I found and I wanted to know if they are good in any way." said Asta as he then showed the herbs to Midori as she then examined them.

"Hmm… Oh! That one is a rosemary!" yelled Midori as Asta tilted his head in confusion, "Right, rosemaries are really good if you want to have a healthy diet as it can reduce weight gain. If you want to you, you can ask Charmy to make you some while adding in rosemaries in your food."

"Really?! Oh that is great to hear! What about these ones?" asked Asta as he then pushed another hand of herbs that he found while running around.

"That one is lavender. Named after the colour," said Midori as she took them from Asta's hand, "If you want to have a good night's sleep, a better memory, having your mood be better or just cleaning up a couple of insect bites, then I suggest you always have lavender on your side. They are really useful for medical practises." said Midori with a smile on her face.

"Wow… I did not expect grass to have that many benefits. I thought they were used for decorations." said Asta as Midori chuckled at that.

"Well, you are not exactly wrong. At least 1000 years ago, many people used them for decorations for their houses." said Midori as Asta sat on his butt while listening to her.

"You really know your stuff, huh? I mean, I wouldn't be shocked, you are always reading a book at every waking hour." said Asta as Midori blushed hearing that. After being a Magic Knight, she still wasn't used to getting complimented like that.

"Of course, I know my stuff about herbs, plants and grass, they are part of my Magic Attribute after all. However, I doubt that would have changed if I had a different attribute." said Midori as she fixed her glasses, "It is because I love reading all types of genres. Romance, horror, action, educational, historical. You name a genre, I have definitely read it."

"Huh, never thought that books could be that interesting." said Asta as he then moved his legs so he could sit criss cross apple sauce style.

"You learn something everyday, I suppose." said Midori as she thought that sitting down with her squadmate would be respectful, so she sat down next to her junior.

"I guess. Honestly, I tried to read a book, I think it was about a boy going through time?" Asta thought back to the book he tried to read.

"Oh, are you talking about Chrono Warp?" asked Midori as Asta snapped his fingers.

"Yeah! That was the one! I couldn't go past 12 pages of that, it was way too boring for my taste." said Asta as Midori chuckled.

"I understand. The start can be a little slow and it is not for everyone." said Midori as Asta thought about that and nodded.

"Could be. The only books I have read to completion is The Story Of The First Wizard King and how to properly train. Learned a lot about how to build muscles when I was just a kid." Asta laughed at the memory of Asta sitting on Father Orsi's lap as he tried to read the book on his own with Father helping him out with pretty much every other word.

Midori giggled, "You must have been so confused."

"You are right. Father Orsi had to help me out a lot." Asta said as he straighted his back, "Still though, they aren't for me. But hey, you do you and I will do what I do best."

"I can agree to that. Working out like you has been harder than understanding quantum physics." said Midori.

"I have no idea what that is, but yikes, I do not want to know." said Asta as he then looked at the ground and then back at her, "Hey, can I ask you something?"

"Hmm? Sure, go ahead." Midori smiled at her junior.

"Why did you join the Black Bulls? I mean, I don't hate it here, infact quite the opposite, but other than your love of reading, you are not really weird, so why?" asked Asta as he was actually interested.

From what he has understood, Magna joined because Yami wanted him since they share the same goal, Noelle because it was the only squad that accepted her flaw and he joined because he was interested in him. The others he didn't quite get, but he might ask them one day. Compared to the others, Midori was quite normal compared to everyone else, even he had to admit that.

"Oh… It is, uhm… complicated." the tone of voice from Midori changed. It went from cheerful and informational, to sounding sad to even remember it.

Asta quickly understood that, "Oh. Personal issue?" Midori nodded to that. "I am so sorry! I didn't kno-"

"No, no, it is quite alright, you didn't know." said Midori as Asta frowned seeing his friend like that.

He wondered to himself how can he make her cheer her up after that as then a lightbulb appeared over his head, "Hey, how about you ramble about a recent story you just read, okay? I am interested what you have to say and your thoughts on it."

"Really?!" the tone changed from sad and mysterious to cheerful and childlike.

"Yup. Come on, I am interested." Asta didn't lie in the slightest. At times, he was really interested on what she was reading to the point she could hear her mumble about it.

A book appeared in her hands, "Okay, so this is Sorcery Battle, a book about a boy that was actually a regular boy in a regular school until one day, his friends open up a box containing evil energy. He meets up with another boy the same night, talking about the cursed object that was in a box that was known as a curse as they rushed to that school. From what he told him, curses are beings that regular humans couldn't see…" Midori began to ramble about her story as Asta nodded.

He didn't understand half of what is going on in that story, but he didn't mind it, he was just happy to see his friend in a good mood as unknown to him, in his Grimoire, a green light shined in his Demon-Dweller Sword.

Meanwhile, with Noelle, while she was training with her Grimoire, a man that was stark naked with red hair walked up to her. It was Fanzell Kruger. "Hey, excuse me, miss. Yes you with the silver hair, do you have a second?" the man walked towards her, not noticing one crucial part of what he was doing.

Noelle sighed, "Yes, what is i-" her eyes widened as soon as she saw Fanzell. Her eyes widened in horror.

"Sorry to bother you, but I want to see something from you if you don't mind. Like I said, it will only take a second." said Fanzell as he didn't notice just how wrong that sounded.

"Why you-" Fanzell walked forward as Noelle then pointed her wand straight at him.

"Wai-"

"YOU PEDOPHILE! Water Creation Magic: Sea Dragon's Roar!" yelled Noelle as then from her wand then began to form liquid that was in the shape of a ball. The ball then changed the look into a dragon which made Fanzell widen his eyes as then the Dragon's head grew into a size of a human as then it was shot straight towards Fanzell.

Thankfully, if Fanzell didn't jump to the side he would have been murdered, as he then rolled to his side. "Wait! It is just a misunderstanding." Fanzell stood up as he walked to her.

"GET AWAY FROM ME! HELP!" Noelle then ran straight to the Black Bulls' hideout as she turned around as she shot several Water Mana Bullets at the man, which he skillfully dodged the attacks coming to his way.

While Midori was rambling about how a man thought a random man was his brother all because they both like tall women with a fat butt, both of them stopped as they heard Noelle's cries of help. "Isn't that-"

"It is Noelle! We have to go now!" Asta stood up as he and Midori began to run at the source of the sound.

"Hmm? What is all that ruckus?" asked Yami as he finally let go of Luck's head as the Lightning Mage covered his head from the pain. As then, Noelle ran to the base and hid behind her Captain. "Woah, kid, what is wrong? Didja see a bug or something?" asked Yami as then they all turned to the reason why she began running to the base.

It was Fanzell as he then took a breather, "Please, listen! All I want is just a peek, nothing more! Please, I will even pay you for tha-" He then suddenly saw the mages looking at him as he turned around, "Nevermi-"

Fanzell couldn't even finish his sentence as he was forcibly dragged to the base thanks to Vanessa's threads, who immediately sobered up.

He gulped as he saw Gauche looking at him like he disrespected Marie, Luck was not smiling, Magna was surprisingly calm, Finral looked like he was about to cut a bitch, Charmy was ready with a pan in her hands, Vanessa was curling up several threads in her hands, Gordon had poison around him, but the most terrifying one was without a doubt Yami as the dark mana around him made the other time pale in comparison. This time, he looked like he was a samurai with the dark mana covering his entire body.

"...I miss the Diamond Kingdom." said Fanzell as then they all charged at him.

"I will murder you!"

"Oh so you are ready for a battle huh?!"

"Pan is one letter away from pain!"

"I will beat you up like you touched Crazy Cyclone!"

"I will strangle you with my Threads!"

"how dare you try to touch one of my friends?"

"Gauche! Throw me that chair!"

"You got it, Finral!"

If one was walking through the base, they would hear fire, electricity and poison going off, chairs being thrown and destroyed on someone, the sound of someone getting strangled, a God Of Destruction going off, pans hitting someone's head and light shooting straight at a poor man's body.

It was a horrible day for Fanzell Kruger.

At The Golden Dawn

Yuno was walking down the hallway of the Golden Dawn hideout. Yuno looked around the place with a small smile on his face as no matter how many times he decided to walk around in the hideout, it was still something out of a fairy tale. Straight out of a dream that not even Dorothy could make in a million years.

Now, when he, Mimosa and Klaus returned to the Golden Dawn they all looked at them in pure shock at how they looked like. Klaus looked like he had 7 different concussions, had most of his ribs destroyed with the bone structure being absolutely destroyed, Mimosa was drenched in sap, had a slash coming downwards of her body, part of her uniform being burned, but Yuno looked destroyed as somehow the thing that was actually quite fine was his cape as he looked as though he fought every Magic Knight at the same time.

Them getting a whole week off was more than deserved if they were looking at them being this destroyed as they were wondering in what in the fresh hell did they battle? Did they fought an entire army at the same time? Did they battle all of the Shining Generals? Did they actually fight Jupiter Galilei, the King of The Diamond Kingdom and the closest thing to rival The Wizard King because that is the only reasonable explanation.

Not to mention they looked absolutely done with everything as when Siren wanted to ask what in the world just happened to all of them, they looked at each other and then back at Siren as they then said, "Don't ask," which raised his suspicion even more and they wanted to explain later on. The fact that they were still active and not at all down for the count is nothing short, but a miracle.

Once Yuno woke up, he decided to have a light day of working out before relaxing his mind off what happened. He got up, went to the bathroom, took a well deserved shower and brushed his teeth. Yuno went to the cafeteria and took out something that he wanted to eat, a frittata from where David lived in the place where it was the most popular. He tried it and to his shock, it was really freaking good.

Yuno tried to look around for Klaus and Mimosa as they weren't awake at the current moment, it was most likely that they wanted to rest after that mission and he does not blame them at all for wanting to rest more after that. It was actually kind of strange that he didn't see any other Golden Dawn members in the slightest.

Hamon was usually the first one to wake up and make breakfast for everyone, Siren always made sure to clean the garden with Alecdora waking up on the wrong side of the bed, as he usually strolls around, praising William like he was an actual God, David waking up to pull a prank on someone, sometimes being Letoile who is usually in the library, reading something new.

Langris made sense as he always followed William around as he was his Vice Captain so both of them not being there made sense, but for the rest of his squad it was almost impossible.

Yuno sighed as he decided to train alone this time, which was how he started usually. He first dropped to the ground and began to do push ups which he was doing quite well as he was now doing around 121 almost every other day, even after battling Mars, as he then did pull ups as now he did a comfortable 115 and he did squats, which was now currently sit ups which was now a decent number of 120.

After he was done with that workout, Yuno laid on the ground, breathing in and out, wanting to take a decently long break. As then after around 3 minutes, he then sat up right and then stood up. He began to stretch his muscles with him beginning with his legs as he moved them around, with him then doing exercises so he could see from the back from his arms.

Yuno decided to do something new. Running. It was actually important for mages to do that even if you are the only mage in your squad that can fly without an issue of the world. He has done several times, but not as much as his short magicless brother/rival as then he began spriting around the garden for a couple of minutes.

It lasted for about 10 ish minutes as the man was lying on the ground as he was breathing heavily as his legs were on fire during all of that. He was not used to running for that long, let alone for that amount of time, which showed that he had a lot to improve on if he wants to become the Wizard King.

Then continued flying which was basically second nature to him at this point as at the start, he was flying around like he was swimming on the air. Hands on his head, eyes closed as he wobbled his legs around, but not before turning around getting into position and flying off, creating a small shockwave as he then continued to fly around the arena.

After flying for a few minutes he came back on the ground to practise his Dual Attributes. Fighting against Mars made him realize something.

In a world of Magic, every mage can only have 1 Attribute. However, it seems as though there are 2 individuals that now possess 2 of them. One of them being Mars and the other being him. Yuno then realized how outclassed he was during the battle as if it weren't for the assistance from the Black Bulls, they would have been murdered by him alone.

Not to mention, something extraordinary. Heraclean Armour.

The Peak of Spells he has ever seen in his life. Forcibly changing his Nemean Armour to evolve into a Spell that was rightfully an armour of the Gods, combining both of his elements in a fury of offensive spells that could even give a Magic Knight Captain a run for their money and here he was.

Without a single Combo Spell in his name. Sure he was able to cast a Dual Spell, which is basically casting two spells at once, which is still an impressive feat as only Magic Knight Captains and a few number of high ranking Knights could do, but Mars was on a completely different level compared to him.

Which meant only one thing.

Train.

Train his magic to the point he could feel comfortable fighting even World Ending Threats. Even though he felt comfortable that he will learn spells of high calibre, there was one thing that bothered him and it wasn't if Mars, Zvuk or Juden survived, judging by how they fought, it might as well be a scratch for them, no.

It was about that fairy he saw when it easily destroyed the sword like a twig and that ancient writing from that scroll before it disappeared for good. He doubts there could even be a spell to rework it. If only he grabbed the scroll from that Dungeon before it was destroyed, maybe there could be a shot of getting that ancient writing to look like normal writing.

Yuno gritted his teeth as he now stopped at the hallway he was walking on, as there was nothing he could do, but train. Even if there was a way of getting stronger, it was only something he had heard from the rumours talking about the oldest Vermillion. That is how she mastered something by the name of Mana Zone, which concentrated the surrounding mana to affect the entire arena or at the very least the mage.

It got him thinking.

Compared to most Attributes, Wind and Lightning are the ones that have the best ability to track someone out, so, if there is a chance.

Maybe, Yuno could-

"Yuno! Over here!" yelled Mimosa as she then cut Yuno's thoughts as he then turned around to see Mimosa and Klaus walk up to him.

"Ahh, Klaus, Mimosa," said Yuno with a smile on his face as he waited for them to walk up to him, "It looks like you two overslept." Yuno said as Klaus pushed up his glasses.

"Hmpf, I suppose that we have. I apologize for oversleeping and missing our workout." said Klaus as he then bowed as the sweatdropped.

"You don't have to do that," said Yuno as Mimosa nodded with him.

"What he said, comeon, Klaus it is alright." said Mimosa as then Klaus rose his head up. The Plant Mage then turned to Yuno, "Why we overslept, well-"

"Yesterday's mission?"

"Yep."

"I don't blame you two at all, I would've done the same thing, but if he won't slack off after that mission, then I won't as well." said Yuno as they knew about who he was talking about. "Where is everybody? I tried looking around and it was like finding a needle in a haystack."

"Now that you mention it, where are they? It is not like them to do up and vanish like that." Mimosa placed a finger on her chin as Klaus was about to tell something, but then they heard a noise from one of the rooms.

"I win! Raidraptor - Revolution Falcon, finish David off! Revenging Rebellion!" as then they heard a loud moan.

"There are no holograms, Alecdora! You don't have to shout!"

Mimosa then raised her eyebrow, Yuno looked plain confused and Klaus then widened his eyes, "No… they couldn't be doing…" Klaus then opened up to see a neatly decorated room filed with a total of 2 tables pushed together with 4 chairs on each end as on the end of the last table were the rest of the Golden Dawn with the exception of Langris and William.

Alecdora was leaning on his chair with a victorious smirk on his face, Hamon was clapping his hands for the victory of his comrade, Siren walked up to a board and wrote down every victory and loss of each members, Letoile was patting David on the back as the Dice Mage had his on the table.

Which meant only one thing.

"Are you playing Duel Monsters without us?!" yelled Klaus as the rest of the Golden Dawn members turned their heads to see their comrade.

"Duel Monsters?" Yuno raised his brow.

"Ah! How could you guys!? You couldn't have waited us to start?" Mimosa felt like her heart was broken up by a break up.

"What is Duel Monsters?" Yuno looked at his two squadmates.

"Sorry, you two. David wanted to duel as soon as possible and look where it got him." said Letoile as David rose his head to look at her.

"You are not helping, Letoile." said the defeated David as he then slammed his head on the table, "That was my Double Or Nothing…"

"What are you guys talking about?"

"The card or you losing to Alecdora twice?" Klaus felt like he already knew the answer to that question.

"The latter." David sulked.

"Right now," they turned to Siren fixing the scoreboard, "Alecdora is in the lead with Letoile being in Second place. David has currently lost all of his duels."

"Don't remind me."

"Sorry."

"Alright, I am done with this. What on Earth are you guys talking about?!" asked Yuno as they all turned to him as Alecdora sneered.

"Great, the commoner is here." Alecdora said with a disgusted look on his face.

"Be nice." Hamon elbowed him on his shoulder as Alecdora rolled his eyes.

"Oh! Sorry about that, Yuno, we are talking about Duel Monsters." said Klaus as Yuno looked at him confused.

"Never heard of it." they were taken aback from that.

"You've never hea- Wait…" Klaus smacked his forehead, "You are not a noble, that makes sense." Klaus coughed into his hand, "To give you the smallest explanation, Duel Monsters is the most popular game in the Clover Kingdom, specifically in the Noble Realm of the Clover Kingdom."

"Why at the Noble Realm specifically? Is it because it is difficult to understand?" asked Yuno as Siren moved his hand from side to side.

Letoile gave the answer, "No, it is because it is way too expensive." Yuno was taken aback from that.

"She is not wrong. Most cards nowadays can go up to 300 000 yul, in fact, someone sold the rarest card in the entire Clover Kingdom for 1 000 000 yul." said Hamon simply as Yuno gaped hearing that, not expecting to hear that.

"Being difficult to understand is also a good reason for that. Most decks have too many monsters, some decks have texts on par with an actual book and there is an actual deck that needs a spreadsheet to be properly played." David raised his head upwards as they remember hearing about that deck getting a whole spreadsheet.

"...huh." Yuno simply said as he looked at the whole board with an interested look on his face, "I am actually interested in this game, how do you play it?"

"No," Alecdora slammed his hands on the table, "No, no, no, no, no, HELL NO! I am not letting a common filth like you play this game! I will never forgive you for joining the bri-" Letoile walked up to him and slapped him on the head, "OW!"

"Dude, chill! It ain't that serious!" said David as he then looked to Yuno, "Sure you can! The more the merrier."

Yuno smiled at that, "Thank you."

"Oh you are going to play with us as well? That is wonderful news!" Mimosa clapped her hands, "What deck do you play?"

"Deck?"

That made everyone stop.

Alecdora sighed, "This is going to be a long day."

Klaus fixed his glasses, "Sit down, Yuno. We are about to teach the important parts of the game so it won't be as confusing for you. Siren, get the rulebook."

"Will do." Siren bent down as he then looked under the table for the rulebook.

"You are overexaggerating, Klaus, there is no way that-" Siren then slammed down the rulebook that was the size of a human's ribcage as once it was slammed on the table, it caused the entire room to shake. "... well damn."

"Sit down, Yuno. We are about to teach you the basics." said Klaus as Yuno sat down on the table. He was about to learn the game known as Duel Monsters.

To put it simply: Both players have 8000 Life Points or if you want to have a quick duel, 4000 Life Points and there are ways of dealing damage. Effect Damage is damage that can be dealt thanks to effect of a card and Battle Damage is dealt by attacking either directly if there are no monsters on the opponent's side of the field or by attacking a monster with lower attack points.

Both players have a starting hand of 5 cards and for every passing turn, the turn player can draw a card from his deck. A Deck is a set of cards personalized by the player. The minimal and optimal number is 40, but the most you can have in a deck is 60. If a player starts a turn, but they are unable to draw a card from their deck because they ran out of the number of cards, they have lost the duel.

There is a graveyard for placing a card in it that is effectively like a graveyard in which those cards can still be used for effects. The banished zone, however, is a place where it is nearly impossible to gain access as once they go in there, they stay there. There are 5 Main Monster zones where monsters can be summoned on, with there being 2 Extra Monster Zones and 5 Spell and Trap Zones.

The types of cards in a deck are separated by 3 types of cards. Spells, Traps and Monsters.

Spells are cards that allow you to gain an advantage during your turn. They can be separated by a couple of groups: Normal (Where it can only be played during your turn), Quick-Play (Where they can be played on both player's turns.), Continuous (A card that stays on the field for as long as it needs to), Field (Which affects the entire field), Equip (Which can equip on monsters) and Ritual (Which allows them to summon a certain type of monsters)

Trap cards can disrupt the opponent, but they have to be set and wait a turn before they could be played. They can be: Normal (The Same as Spells), Continuous (The Same as Spells) and Counter (Cards that can counter effects.)

Monsters are the most popular types of cards in a deck. They have levels that actually depend on how to summon them. If they have 4 or lower, they can be summoned without any trouble, if they are 5 or 6, you need to tribute 1, if they are 7 or all the way up to 12, you need to tribute 2 monsters.

They can only be normal summoned once per turn. The same can not be said for Special Summoning as they can do that as much as they want to.

There are several types of monsters in the game: Ritual Summoning (In which you need a specific Spell card to summon them), Fusion (Where you need a specific card to fuse them with them), Synchro (Where you need a sub-type of monsters, Tuners, to special summon them while doing math), Pendulum (Where they need to be in the Spell and Trap zones to special summon them depending on their level) and Link (Where they need monsters on the field as they have arrows on their cards).

All of these cards, with the exception of Ritual and Pendulum monsters, go into the Extra Deck which is separated from the Main Deck. They can have up to 15 monsters in there. Ritual and Pendulum monsters go into the deck with the specific cards to summon them also going into the deck.

"And that is about it you have to know." said Mimosa as it took them approximately half an hour to learn the basics of this card game.

"This… won't go on the test, right? I feel like I have to study for college due to this." said Yuno as this was actually one of the most confusing things he had ever learnt in his entire life.

"Oh don't worry, that is every player's first thoughts upon learning the rules." assured Letoile as she placed her hands on his shoulder, "Trust me, you will be playing like a pro in no time."

"I hope so." said Yuno as he then looked at all of them, "Wait, you said I need to find a deck? Where can I get one?"

"Walk out of the room," They all turned to Alecdora with narrowed eyes, "and take a left. If you see a sign with a massive card, then you found your place. In there you can go around and look for a Structure Deck. Do that and you are set, at least for now."

"Huh." David blinked, "Didn't expect you actually helping him."

"I know right?" Mimosa turned to David as Alecdora rolled his eyes.

"Look, the sooner he starts dueling, the sooner I get to crushing him, so go ahead and find a deck. Not like you can find one to beat me." said Alecdora as the Golden Dawn knew one thing about him. Even if he was a complete ass to be around, they had to admit, in this entire squad, he is the best when it comes to dueling in Duel Monsters.

Not even William, with his Sunavalon Deck, or Langris, with his Evilswarm Deck, can beat him in a duel.

"Right, thank you." said Yuno as he then walked out of the room as Klaus and Mimosa walked with him. It took them around 2 minutes to get to that room as once they walked in, it was actually really clean.

The floor was so clean you could eat your dinner on it and not get sick from it, there wasn't a single atom of dust on any of the shelves and there were entire closets filled with Duel Monsters Structure and Starter Decks. They had to admit, this was a really well put room filled with a lot of merchandise. Heck, there were even valuable cards on the wall.

They then split into 3 as they began to walk around to see what kind of deck would best fit Yuno. Yuno walked around to see a couple of the decks that would best suit him. Yuno looked at the group of Structure Decks and they didn't fit him in the slightest. He saw a Performapal and Odd-Eyes Deck which he was confused on how to play them, Monarchs which look cool, but isn't something that he would regularly play and don't fit his aesthetic, The HERO Archetype is something that he could see him play when he was younger, but so far nothing to crazy.

He did then find a deck that look actually pretty fitting for his deck, The Satellarknight Deck. It was an XYZ Deck that focuses on XYZ Spamming the field with monsters that could wipe away the field, alongside having XYZ Support cards like XYZ Treasure. They were even based around Stars. The Structure Deck was named, "Galactic Warriors".

Mimosa looked around the room with an interested look on her face. Looking for a deck that best fits a new player can be quite challenging as no matter what, you have to look out for a deck that is simple to play, but fun as well. That's why she is not looking for a deck that is complicated like the Marincess Deck or Sprights, but a fun deck like Code Talkers. She is planning on getting a deck that might best suit him which is why she is looking around for a deck that could best suit her.

Mimosa then found an almost perfect deck for him to play. It was Speedroids, not to be confused with Vehicroids. It was a deck that focuses on Special Summoning and Synchro Summoning to oblivion as the monsters can deal massive amounts of damage against the opponent. That is not even talking about the fact that the ace monster, Clear Wing Synchro Dragon, is something that she sees him playing. It was named, "The Fast and Furious."

Klaus was walking around the room as he had a thought in mind for a deck. He had 2 things in mind for picking out a deck for him to play. One is the Attribute, which means he has to look for a deck that is specifically a Wind deck so something like Vendread or Galaxy-Eyes won't fit him, and the how the monsters look so something like Stormrider and Drones won't fit the bill.

That is until he stumbled around the perfect looking deck for him. It was named Gusto. It was a Synchro/XYZ Focused deck that was a Wind Attributed deck. Gustos look like something that Yuno would play since he kinda looks like he would fit right with them like a glove. The Structure Deck was named, "The Wind's Prophecy."

"So, what deck did you two think would be the perfect fit?" asked Yuno as they were at the door.

"What did you pick?" asked Klaus as he had the Structure deck behind him.

"I chose the Satellarknight Deck. The Summoning Mechanic isn't a big issue for me. The deck looks interesting and the boss monster is rather unique." said Yuno as if they were honest that was a decent choice for his deck. That was not even mentioning that his Attribute fits quite well with that as well.

"Oh that is such a pretty deck to look into! I think it fits you so much." said Mimosa with a smile on her face as Klaus nodded.

"Mimosa is right. It does suit your style and even your new cape." said Klaus as Yuno looked back at his new Space-Like cape with a fond smile on his face as he then looked at his comrades/friends.

"So, what deck did you guys pick out for me?" asked Yuno as Mimosa rose her arms.

"I will start. This is what I chose is the Speedroid deck! It is a Wind Attributed deck that is as fast as you at times, not to mention, I think you would love the ace monster." said Mimosa as she then showed the Structure and then Yuno widened his eyes as he saw a powerful looking white coloured dragon. That… was the best looking dragon he has ever seen.

"Hmm… Interesting. Klaus, what is your option?" asked Yuno as Klaus gasped as he wanted to be the one to give a Clear Wing Dragon, but he coughed into his hand.

"Well, I chose The Gusto deck, it is a Synchro and XYZ Deck that is Wind Attributed, that I think you would enjoy. Not to mention, they look like you if they were monsters." said Klaus as Yuno looked at the monsters as he widened.

"Huh. Now that you mentioned it…" Mimosa looked at the monsters and then back at Yuno. She turned to Klaus, "You sure he isn't a Duel Spirit?"

"Not quite sure."

"Hilarious." Yuno sarcastically said as he heard every bit of what they were talking about. He looked back at the Satellarknight Deck, the Gusto deck and the Speedroid Deck as they were all interesting decks that he might enjoy, but he looked at the Speedroid Deck and back at Clear Wing Synchro Dragon with narrowed eyes.

Something about that Dragon spoke to him like no other. It was almost like it was calling him to get that deck monster as he used his Wind Magic to grab the Structure deck while placing the other structure decks to the shelves, "I think I picked my deck. I will be using Speedroids."

"Wonderful!"

"You beat me Mimosa, fair and square." Klaus sighed.

While they were walking back with the other Golden Dawn members, Yuno was shuffling his new deck as a new thought came to him, "Hey," they turned to Yuno while they were walking, "What decks do they play?"

"Oh, I play Aromages while Klaus plays Infinitracks:" said Mimosa as she then thought back to every single time they have dueled against each other, "Hamon plays Nouvelles, Letoile plays a Mirror Force deck, David plays a Gamble Deck, Siren plays a Gem-Knight Deck and Alecdora plays Raidraptors."

Yuno raised a brow hearing the last one, "Raptors? The bird?" they nodded to that, "I thought he would play something Sand related."

"It is due to the Sandler House being known for playing bird-like decks as a way to respect the founder, Shay." Klaus thought back to what Alecdora said when they first started playing the game with him, "He plays a Raidraptor deck while his younger sister, Lulu, plays a Lyrilusc deck." At the back of his mind, he wondered how a nice girl can have an older brother that is the polar opposite of him.

"I see." said Yuno as they then reached the room as they saw Siren sighing as he lost all of his life points with Alecdora still in the lead.

"HA! Your Gem-Knight Lapis Lazuli was no match for my Raidraptor - Stranger Falcon! Haha! I won once more!" yelled Alecdora as Hamon wrote a victory down for Alecdora, but a loss for Siren.

"Good game, Alecdora." Siren reached a hand towards his comrade to which a couple of people's shock, he accepted it.

"Good game to you too," said Alecdora as he then turned to see Yuno as he had a deck in his hands, "Filth has arrived, huh? Take a seat, I can't wait to get my revenge against you."

"We will see about that," said Yuno as he then began walking towards the other side of the table. "Are you ready to lose like you did against me 2 months ago?"

"This will be different." Alecdora said as he began to shuffle his deck as he then felt someone grab his robe, "Huh? What do you want?" asked Alecdora as he turned around to see Letoile.

"Okay, can you try holding back against him? I know you can't stand him, but at least try." she whispered as Alecdora eyed her.

"Why should I? If you know that I can't stand him, then why ask?" Alecdora inquired.

"Because if you don't, then I will tell Vangeance what you did towards him 2 months ago." whispered Letoile as Alecdora widened his eyes hearing that as he sighed.

"Fine. I will go easy on him." Letoile backed off as Alecdora readied his deck as he finished shuffling his deck. He then looked to see Yuno sitting on one of the chairs, "Ready to get your shit rocked?"

"I believe I should ask you the same thing:" said Yuno with a smirk.

"I am going to enjoy wiping that smirk off your face." said Alecdora as he then drew the top 5 cards of his deck as did Yuno. They then roared, "DUEL!" as it then began.

It was a one sided ass whopping.

The Golden Dawn watched in horror from what they had seen.

It was one of the most humiliating, disrespectful and downright unfair things they have ever seen in their entire life.

The worst part?

Alecdora didn't even mean to to beat Yuno that hard.

Yuno barely landed a single hit on Alecdora in the duel and Alecdora was in complete shock of what he did. And that man consistently loses weight because of him. It was so bad that Alecdora felt sorry for the kid.

"Oh my gosh, that was horrible." said David as he nearly fell unconscious seeing that.

Yuno looked at his hands in horror, it was like seeing his entire family get murdered right front of him. It was that bad.

"I said to hold back on him!" whisper yelled Letoile as Alecodra looked at her like he didn't commit a murder in the form of a duel.

"I did!" Alecdora whisper yelled back, "I didn't use more than my Rank 4 monsters! Don't blame this on me!"

"Rematch…" they turned to Yuno as he said that.

"Huh?"

"I said rematch! Best 2 of 3." said Yuno as Alecdora gulped. He didn't want to create a second massacre. The spark in Yuno's eyes said otherwise as he didn't know if he should say no or yes to that.

He decided on the latter. "Sure, why not."

The second time was actually worse.

Far.

Far worse.

Siren had to run out of the room to not see the ending as it was the equivalent of watching a man being drowned while burning alive. They didn't know how that was even possible since Alecdora didn't even XYZ Summon during the entire duel and yet he didn't lose a single point of damage.

Yuno sat back on his seat in horror. It was like a nightmare. Nothing he did worked as he couldn't understand his deck to the fullest and yet there he is, losing 2 duels in a row.

Yuno rose his head as Alecdora shook his head, "No, no, please not another one."

"Rematch."

"No, no, buddy," they widened in horror once as Alecdora Sandler called Yuno buddy. Hell is freezing over, "Not another one. Spare yourself from the issue and just learn the dec-"

"Rematch."

"I don't want to cont-"

"Rematch."

"Yu-"

"Best 3 out of 5."

Alecdora quietly sulked as they began another duel.

Yuno didn't even summon a single monster this time as Alecdora simply summoned a single monster and attacked, ending all of his turns with that.

"This… was the hardest thing to ever watch." said David as everyone else nodded to that.

"How did it get worse with every single duel? That should be studied." said a shaking Mimosa.

"What was even your hand?! Give me it," yelled Alecdora as he forcibly grabbed Yuno's entire hand as they then saw it was filled with Spell and Trap cards that could not have been played in the slightest as they won't work with the current predicament. They blinked, "Okay, I can't even blame you for that. That happens to all of us."

"Yeah, it is alright. You don't have to be mad at that," said Klaus as he tried to consult Yuno, "Everything will be-"

"Rematch."

"No, hell no," Alecdora quickly stood up as he took his Raidraptor deck, "Someone else duel him. I am not going through that again."

"I guess I will go," said Klaus as he then sat on the table as they began a new duel with Yuno trying his best to understand this entire game the best that he could.

During the duel, Yuno grinned, "Alright, now, I will tune my Speedroid Ohajikid with my Speedroid CarTubo to Synchro Summon my Clear Wing Sy-"

"You can't do that." said David as the Dual Mage turned to him.

"Huh?"

"You did the math wrong. Both of your monsters are Level 3. You can't use them if you want to Synchro Summon a Level 7 monster." explained David as even though he might not look it, he is pretty decent when it comes to equations.

Yuno looked at him and then back at the field as he then placed hands on his head as he quietly sulked.

The next duel was against Siren as he only had his Gem-Knight Garnet on the field as Yuno smirked as he had 2 monsters on his field with the correct amount of levels, "This is perfect. I tune my Level 4 Speedroid Menko with my Level 4 Speedroid Razorfang to Syn-"

"You can't do that either." Siren said as Yuno almost cried hearing that.

"How?" he asked.

"You don't have any Tuners, you need Tuners on the field to Synchro Summon… sorry." said Siren as he patted Yuno's back as he slammed his head on the table.

The next duel was against Mimosa as she had a decent amount of 6500 life points thanks to her monsters as she only had her Aromaseraphy Jasmine on the Extra Monster Zone, Yuno looked at the field, saw if they were tuners and checked the numbers as he smirked, "I tune my Level 1 Speedroid Red-Eyed Dice with my Level 3 Speedroid Tri-Eyed Die to S-"

"Uhm…" Mimosa stopped him as Yuno wanted someone to kill him at that moment.

"What now?"

"Both of them are Tuners. You need a non-Tuner on the field and a Tuner on the field to Synchro Summon." explained Mimosa as Yuno just blinked. He looked more dead than a corpse.

This was not Yuno's day to say the least.

At The Diamond Kingdom

It has been a full on day since The Diamond Kingdom mages have finished their mission in the Dungeon. Sure, while they did get their collective asses, with the sole exception being Mars, kicked, they were the ones to get any reward from the battle and it was all thanks to Mars stalling enough time to grab enough resources for an entire century.

"Are we there yet?" asked Zvuk.

"Nope." answered Lotus with a smile on his face.

"Are we there yet?" asked Juden as Lotus sighed once more.

"Not yet you two."

"Are we there ye-"

"Give me a minute alright?" Lotus cut the two off before they can speak again. They were like children during a trip, they just are the most impatient people on the planet. He really wanted Molly's Spatial Magic right now as she was the reason why they got there so quickly in the first place.

Mars said a few sentences every few minutes as he continued to look into The Sun with a hopeful and determined look on his face. As he had one dream in mind.

After 2 minutes of flying, they reached the massive wall that acted as the border between the Diamond and Clover Kingdoms as Lotus raised his hand upwards to the upcoming mages that were about to strike at him at any moment as they then lowered their Grimoires once they saw it was one of them and more specifically, Mars.

"There we go, we are finally here, I can finally move my legs." said Zvuk as he stood up as Lotus shook his head.

"Not yet, buddy, we have to show this to the king." said Lotus as Zvuk sighed loudly.

"Really?! His damn castle is like 10 minutes away!" moaned Zvuk.

"Well you can hop off with you want to, I won't stop you. Only if you want to enrage your king." threatened Lotus as that made Zvuk shut up and especially Juden. Mars was silent as he continued to stare at the Sun, but in his mind, he prepared himself to see the man that ruined his life alongside that man. Mars' flames burn up just thinking about him.

After 10 minutes, they finally arrived with Jupiter sitting on his throne. "So… you have succeeded?" asked Jupiter with a grin on his face. Lotus landed his carrier on the ground as they all hopped off the carrier. The mages that were with Lotus then began walking away as fast as possible as they didn't want to be near their king.

"That's right and we couldn't have done without Mars here." Lotus slapped the back of Mars as he pulled him closer, making the Dual Mage widen his eyes in shock as he wasn't expecting that. Jupiter glanced at him.

"Really? He was the one that did all of the work?" asked Jupiter as Lotus gulped, trying his best to think of his next sentence. He took a quick glance at Zvuk and Juden as he knew that one wrong word and they are dead.

"Not exactly. While he did prove to be the most offensive mage in the Mission, he was more or less a distraction to keep the Clover Kingdom away from getting a single reward during the fight. This was the most amount of gold we could have taken without them noticing or the Dungeon killing us instead." explained Lotus as Juden and Zvuk nodding with him, knowing damn well that Lotus and his men did all of the work with that regard.

Jupiter narrowed his eyes at them as that wasn't something usual about the Shining Generals in the slightest. However, that wasn't an approach that he expected them to do as it made them the overall winners of the Dungeon. The man was quiet as then… he roared in laughter, taking them by surprise.

"HAHAHHAHAH! The Clover Kingdom failed this mission while we succeeded! That is what they deserve! Nothing stands in the way of the Diamond Kingdom! You hear that?! CONRAD?!" roared Jupiter at the man that he hated the most in his entire life. During the Clover and Diamond Kingdom War, the only man that stood in his way and managed to beat him was the Wizard King of that time, Conrad Leto. "YOUR KINGDOM FAILED!"

"That's right, your majesty. They failed during that mission." said Lotus as he mentally was skipping around, "Thank everyone that he didn't see how it actually went. He might kill everyone here."

Jupiter then pointed at Mars, "You…"

"...me?" asked Mars as the Diamond King smirked.

"You… surpassed my expectations. Looks like you were worthy of living through that and not that whore." Jupiter said as it took everything in Mars to attack the King.

"Whore? You call her a whore after all that she did for this Kingdom. After everything? How dare you…" Mars looked up to him, "How dare you!"

Lotus saw his Grimoire flying to him as he then placed a hand on his shoulder, which made the Crystal Mage look at him as he knew what he meant by that. Still, it felt disgusting to him to even think about that word connecting to her. It was the opposite of what she was. Mars sighed as he closed his eyes.

"Thank you…" that is all that Mars could even say with his compressed anger.

Juden whisperred to him as they noticed Jupiter walk towards them and to the carrier, "Look man, I noticed what you were trying to do and… don't do it, I don't want to lose a friend. She will be avenged one day. I promise." said Juden as Mars sighed as he closed his eyes hearing that.

"I won't do it… not yet at least." said Mars as Jupiter then dug his hands into gold with a grin on his face.

"This, oh this will be more than enough for resources! This will be a lot!" yelled Jupiter as he looked at his hands with a massive grin on his face, "It is such a shame that the Clover Kingdom couldn't even get a single coin well, it hurts to be them, as this is all mine! HAHAHA!" the man roared, shaking the entire arena with just his laugh.

"That's great to hear, your majesty." said Lotus as then the door opened up as to their shock, it was the rest of the Shining Generals.

"Oh ho, ho! Do my eyes deceive? Or am I seeing a lot of gold in this Kingdom?" yelled one of the Shining Generals. It was a man with long bushy gray hair that covered his entire upper part of his body with a black tophat, carrying a black sweater with diamonds on them as it revealed to be an old man.

Zvuk had the most disgusted look on his face, "Oh great, it is the Creepy Slime man."

"I am not the Creepy Slime man." barked the Slime Mage.

"BWAHAHA! Calm down, Yagos. If I am being honest, I am shocked that those 3 Trouble Makers did a single thing good for the Diamond Kingdom." said one man as he had a necklace on the top of his head as they were rubies on them as he had small brown eyes, bushy brown chest hair, beard, mustache as he had a full afro as his build was well made as he was easily the biggest one.

One man placed a hand on his forehead as he glanced at the other, "Like you are one to talk, Broccos. Your barbaric actions are so unpleasant, it hurts my eyes." the man had short light blue hairas he had cyan coloured eyes. He wore a black bandana on his head, wore a sweater that was black alongside the rest of them.

Broccos rolled his eyes, "Oh shut it Lagus:"

As then one of the Shining Generals walked up to them, "We-Well, interesting to see all of you being alive, ri-right? I ex-expect you to bite the dust." said the man as his uniform was that of Mars' but he wasn't as built as him as he had long shaggy light coloured hair as on the top of it was black from the roots as he wore baggy beige pants with no shoes on them as he has green eyes.

"Oh! Yrul! Buddy, how are you!?" asked Juden as he ran up to him and smacked him on the back.

"O-Oh, hi, Juden. I-I am doing fine, I-I suppose. Ho-How are you doing?" While Yrul was known for being a sadistic maniac in battle, well almost all of them are, he was actually quite shy compared to everyone else as he stutters in almost every other sentence. That is not even bothering to talk about how friendly he is specifically towards Juden.

"It went really well! We…" Zvuk then elbowed him as Mars was silent as he kept on stealing glances at Jupiter, "... weren't in the battle very much if I am being honest. Mars was the one that did all of the work and without him being the distraction, we couldn't have succeeded." admitted Juden. He technically wasn't lying, but he wasn't being exactly truthful either.

"Wow the little kid was actually able to work with someone? Shocking to me." said Broccos as Lagus turned to him.

"You have no right to talk like that to him." said Lagus as Lotus scratched the back of his head. Silently wondering what is up with these guys as even though they were his surperios, the way that all of them act is quite the opposite.

"W-Wonderful news. I was in a mi-mission yesterday so so-sorry that I couldn't help you fo-four." said Yrul as Juden laughed.

"Don't be silly, there is no need to apologize." said Juden as his ability to make friends with sadists should be studied.

Before Yrul could even begin a word, they then heard a laugh, a cocky one, "What is this that I am hearing? The Weapon Of The Diamond Kingdom being used as a distraction? Pitiful if I say so," they all turned to the source of that voice as it was him, the 2nd strongest out of all the Shining Generals as even Mars has trouble battling against him.

Ladros.

He was a tall man with dirty blond hair. HIs uniform was that of Mars' though he was more muscular than him. He had dark rubies embedded on his forehead as he had a continues smirk on his face with his eyes being a mix of both black and red all rolled up into one.

"Oh, hello Ladros." said Mars as he turned to look at the 2nd Strongest Shining General.

"Why hello there, distraction, how did it feel to be nothing more than a distraction in the mission?" asked Ladros with a grin on his face as Mars' expression didn't even change.

"I didn't even know I was one until Lotus told me." Mars answered truthfully as Ladros laughed once more.

"You didn't even know?! That is even more pathetic! I would've excused it if you knew that, but now? Now, you have been more pathetic than usual." said Ladros as he approached Mars.

"I don't want to sound rude, but you wouldn't have done better in the slightest." said Mars as he knew that was a fact. The people he fought were not normal. There was a boy with no magic that had a sword that can negate magic and a boy with 2 Attributes like himself. Ladros' ability is a good one against powerful mages, but against those two? He would do worse than him.

"Oh right, like I should listen to you." said Ladros as now they were eye to eye at each other, "The strongest weapon in the Diamond Kingdom wasn't even used to kill a single person, am I correct? Did you even kill a single mage there?" asked Ladros as Mars thought back to that mission and realized he only came close to kill a person, but never outright killed a mage there.

"No, I didn't." admitted Mars as the rest were silent.

Ladros smirked, "Thought so. You talk a big game, but you can not dish it out. I don't even know why people even take you for something special. You are just someone that has Dual Attributes, but like that even matters as even with all of that… nothing worked to your favour." said Ladros as he then smirked, "Even with the help from your girlfriend, you still failed."

That… was something he shouldn't have said.

Everyone noticed Mars' Grimoire flying towards him as Jupiter did nothing to stop it.

"Oh no." Lotus widened his eyes and dropped his smile.

"He crossed the line." Zvuk gulped as he knew what was coming next.

"We have to stop-" before Juden could even say anything, they all heard a voice that made everyone stop.

"What is this? Are my two greatest achievements fighting?" asked a man as they all turned to him as Broccos, Yagos and Lagus didn't have a reaction to him, Yrul was annoyed at his presence, Lotus narrowed his eyes at him, Zvuk, Juden, Ladros and Mars looked at him with mixed reactions, but the only one that was glad to see him was Jupiter.

He was a rather tall man with light blue eyes, carrying round black lenned glasses, wearing a white trench coat with diamonds on them. He wore a white short sleeved shirt and white coloured pants. The interesting part of him is that he was a blind man and despite all of that, he is the Diamond Kingdom's best scientist.

"Morris Libardirt, good to see you." said Jupiter as he walked up to his only friend and placed his hand on his shoulder.

"Your majesty, the same to you." said Morris with a smile on his face.

"How have you been? What have you been doing these past few days?" asked Jupiter as even though they were two polar opposites, they were still able to become friends with even Morris swearing his allegiance to him as long as he can keep doing his experiments.

"The same old usual. Searching up new Magic and elements, walking through and sensing magic around the area and researching the new gem stones that those dwarves keep picking up for us." said Morris as he placed his hands in his pockets. "Now, how have my experiments been doing these past few days?"

Jupiter turned to Morris' experiments as they all turned to Morris, "Oh, I went to a flashy as hell Dungeon, fought some Clover folk and got a shit ton of gold as you can…" Zvuk immediately stopped himself, "hear. Yeah hear."

"Ahh, I understand. How about the rest of them?" asked Morris as Juden grinned.

"Oh! I went with Zvuk and Mars! I haven't done really anything, Mars here did all of the work!" said Juden as Mars nodded.

"Yeah… I worked the hardest." said Mars as he frowned thinking back to that mission.

"Interesting, interesting…" Morris said, "Did any of you managed to use your new special abilities? With Combination Magic and Transformation Magic?" Morris asked them a question as Juden and Zvuk looked at each other.

"Nope."

"Not yet." both of them lied.

"Alright, that is fine, you have time to use them in a fight one day." said Morris as Ladros then smirked.

"I went on a 10 day mission and all I did was beat a shit ton of scrubs that were in my way. They were not worth my time." said Ladros with a smirk on his face as Morris nodded.

"Wonderful. Now, I want to know something." Morris turned to Mars using his Mana Sense, "Did you gain a new Spell?" Mars widened his eyes, "You should know that thanks to my Modification Magic, I used it to track my senses better than anyone and that includes my Mana Sense. I can tell that you have a new Spell, so pray tell me, did you?"

Mars saw everyone turn to him as Lotus knew exactly what kind of spell it was. A spell worthy of battling against the Strongest. "I did. During my battle against the Clover Kingdom's mages." admitted Mars as he felt as though that Spell connected him and Fana even after her death.

"Really? Well, let me touch your Grimoire, I want to know all of the details." said Morris as Mars stilted.

"No." that made everyone else raise a brow. Well, those who are unaware.

"No? What do you mean?" asked Morris.

"The Spell is just a Crystal Magic Spell, nothing more." lied Mars as they knew it wasn't it.

"If it is, then why are you avoiding him touching your Grimoire?" asked Yagos.

"He is right, you know. You wouldn't have a problem then if he touches your Grimoire." said Lagus as Mars glanced at his Grimoire before looking at everybody.

"I… am just tired. That is all." said Mars as Morris narrowed his eyes.

"Well then just give your Grimoire and then you can rest." said Morris as Mars took a step backwards.

"Mars…" The mage stopped as he heard his name being said by Jupiter, "Give him your Grimoire, now…"

"I…" Mars was asked to give up his Grimoire to the man that he despised the most and then ordered by the man that continued the worst part of his life. "I won'-"

THUD!

Mars couldn't even finish his sentence as faster than anyone could react, Jupiter sent out a lightning bolt straight towards Mars' stomach, making him fly towards the wall at high speeds before creating a crater on the wall. Mars looked down to his stomach and to his horror, his abs were bleeding at every angle, the veins were showing every part of his body and he could feel his bones and skin melting upon impact.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" Mars grabbed onto his stomach as Zvuk, Lotus and Juden gasped in horror as Ladros looked at him with interest. "IT BURNS! IT BURNS! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" It is as though he was taking a bath in the Sun as his stomach was covered in 3rd degree burns.

"MARS!" yelled Zvuk and Juden as Lotus had to stop them from going any further as they saw Jupiter walking straight towards him.

"What an ungrateful little brat! I praised you for your job during the Mission and this is how you will thank me?! Am I a joke to you?! Is the Kingdom a massive joke for you to not listen to your King?!" roared Jupiter as once he got close to Mars he kicked his head with so much ferocity it almost destroyed the wall behind him. "HUH?!"

Mars gasped for air, but felt as though his lungs were burning up once Jupiter crouched down at his level and grab his throat. He then chokeslammed Mars on the wall, causing the rubble to hit Mars on the head. "Do you take me for a fool, Mars?! After all of this! After allowing you to live, this is how you repay me?!"

Mars spat out blood as Jupiter then crushed his windpipes. "You disgust me! A Diamond Kingdom Mage should never disobey their own king, no matter what! You need to learn your place! I don't even care if you are our strongest weapon! WHAT IS 19 MORE YEARS?! We can always start again!" Jupiter roared as electricity went around his fist, causing Mars to scream in pain.

Zvuk had enough of this as he then used Sonido to take Mars' Grimoire and then appear right next to Morris, "HERE! TAKE YOUR STUPID FUCKING GRIMOIRE AND CHECK!" yelled Zvuk as Morris then smiled.

"Thank you so much, Zvuk." Morris then turned to Jupiter, "It is alright, my majesty, his little friend gave me his Grimoire for me to check." said Morris.

Jupiter turned to him as he let go off Mars, making him drop to the ground, "This was your final warning." Jupiter then began walking straight towards his only friend as Lotus and Juden ran up to Mars and picked him up. They then ran towards a Recovery Mage and fast. "So… what kind of Spell did he learn?"

"Hmm… let me see." said Morris as he then raised his hand and placed his hand on the Grimoire. "Modification Magic: Perfect Examination." said Morris as then he felt as though he read the entire Grimoire with just by touching it. It is true that when a person loses one of their senses their other senses get stronger, but for Morris' sake? They were at their all time high.

He can use his Modification Magic to perfectly understand an atom of something by just touching them, hear the faintest step by hearing them, he could taste something from a kilometer away and he could even pick up smells better than a dog and cat combined. The only exception to this which was his eyesight as he hadn't quite perfected that part yet.

"Oh! I found it. It is…" Morris gasped with a devilish smirk on his face, "Oh, oh ho! Heraclean Armour, huh? This is… perfect! My theory has been proven to be correct at long last! A combination spell with only 1 Mage using it!" Morris laughed out loud, "It combines the Output of Flame Magic and the sheer versatility and durability of Crystal Magic! This… is perfect! AHAHAHHAHAH!" Morris laughed to the point it scared everyone else that wasn't Jupiter.

Yrul realized that out of all the natural Shining Generals, he was the strongest and yet he felt as though he was fully outclassed in every aspect with Lagus, Broccos and Yagos sharing that thought with Zvuk gasping at whatever the hell he was thinking off and Ladros… he stood there.

Now realizing 2 things.

Mars was now at a league above everyone else entirely and he couldn't even hope to beat him even after absorbing so many spells into him.

And that the Clover Kingdom had mages far above the rest if Mars couldn't beat them.

He swore…

He will be the best!

Meanwhile, while Mars was getting carried by both Lotus and Juden to the infamy, he looked down at the mess that happened to him in the past few minutes ago and saw that his stomach was completely ruined and that no matter what… that scar on his stomach, which was that of a lightning bolt hitting him at full force, will be permanent.

He gritted his teeth.

He swore…

Mars will kill them!

For Fana's sake.

At an unknown location

"There we go! I told you that Heath was a useful addition to my Soul Corpse library!" yelled Rades as he sat on the floor with another mage wearing the same type of robe as him, but looked completely different than the rest of his comrades.

"You proved me wrong, Rades." said the man. He was a rather tall man with short blonde hair with orange eyes. He had a stubble for a beard with him wearing a robe that was the same design as Rades, but he wore a red sleeveless vest with large cargo brown pants with large black shoes.

In the past few weeks, Rades and Sally have been programming the new addition to the former's Soul Corpse library with Heath's body. Sally first used her Mending Iguana to restitch the body parts of Heath and then Rades used a needle to stitch new parts of the body thanks to the man he was sitting right next to's Muscle Magic. During these past few weeks, he was testing it out in comparison to the others.

Not to mention, he added more and more spells that would make the original Heath look like a pushover in comparison. As he was now known as Number 5 - Heath, as he had a total of 4 other corpses and then a secret another one. His secret weapon if he ever wanted to use them against an opponent.

"Of course he does, Mito Muay, he has been practicing to use the deceased Heath to his advantage." said a man as both Rades and the now known Mito turned around to see the man offering up Chai Tea. The man had pale white skin and black mascara around his eyes and lips, but he had white coloured mustache and hair with cyan coloured eyes. He wore the standard uniform as the last two, but he had more of a gentleman style, "Care for a drink, you two?"

"Sure, thanks Howard!" yelled Mito as he grabbed the cup of tea as he began to drink it up with a happy smile on his face.

"Why not?" Rades said as he took the cup of Chai Tea as he took a sip of it. Once he did he nodded, "Mm. This is very good. Did you use your Amplify Magic for this?"

Howard laughed, "Oh how you have a good sense of taste. Yes I did and did you enjoy it?" asked Howard as Rades shrugged his shoulders.

"Eh, yeah…." he then took another sip.

"That is good to hear and before I forget, Master Licht said that we have about a few weeks left until our invasion of the Capitol, so he suggests to train as much as you can." said Howard as Mito looked up to him.

"Will The Third Eye be a part of it?" asked Mito as he knew that compared to everyone else, the Third Eye were the strongest members that are actually stronger than Master Licht.

"Unfortunately, no. He seems as though he doesn't want to use them yet as we only have one goal in mind." said Howard as he then began walking away, "Now, I hope you two are ready for it because I want to get revenge for what my brother, Nathan, did to me." he said as he walked off, ready to meet up with his partner in crime, Catherine.

"Huh, is he still salty about that?" asked Rades with a raised brow.

"Like you are one to talk." said Mito as he then took another sip of his tea, "Still though, I can't believe someone from the House Of Agrippa is a part of our organization."

"The same can be said for former Magic Knights," said Rades as he took another sip of his tea as he then placed the cup on the ground, "Since that former Magic Knight will make those who made me mad pay."

In a few weeks.

The Capital will be destroyed by them. Or at the very least…

…lose one of their Captains.

Authors Note:

DONE! DONE! DONE! Okay, sorry to all that waited 3 months for this chapter, a lot has happened in these past few months. I finished Season 1 of my Yugioh VRAINS fic, which the ending has 46 THOUSAND WORDS on its own, and 3 Chapters of my GX fic, so I thought it will be fun to finally add something to this lmao. Not to mention, I have school, which I finally graduated and I have upcoming exams. yay.

Now, to get on the chapter at hand. I first started out with the Black Bulls with this: Noelle getting a wand from Code (Dominante Code) as it now has a new design. It still functions as the first wand like in canon, but I just changed its design. Then I have a couple of scenes with the Bulls because I want them to hang out more. Next up we have a small little conversation with Midori and Asta as I think it would be nice to see Asta just having a small, normal conversation with someone from the Bulls and I wanted it to be Midori so that people don't accidentally forget about her. The Sorcery Battle reference is basically Jujutsu Kaisen.

Before you go ask, wait is next chapter going to be Fanzell's? Nope, that stays the same as canon and I know what you are going to ask and I will say it here. In the anime, they have met in Episode 56, but it was right after the Mars Battle, but it does not make any sense since as soon as Asta woke up, they went to the Capital so in here Asta didn't fall unconscious. I have one question though? What Magic Attribute would you give to Domina? She canonically didn't show it at all, so I am interested what you have to say. Any and all suggestions are good for me!

Now, we get to see The Golden Dawn bullying Yuno. It is to do 2 things: 1, have them act more human as everyone has a hobby, and 2, to show Yuno's flaw. He is a sore loser, he hates losing more than anything and Duel Monsters is the best way to show it. Duel Monsters is just Yugioh and I wanted to show how much I love that series with them bullying my boy like that. Alecdora playing Raidraptors is a reference to the English VA of him, Matt Shipman, voice acting Shay Obsidian.

Next up is The Diamond Kingdom scene. Now, I wanted to show the 3 Generals that got their asses kicked by William, Yuno, Asta, Charmy and Finral as well to show Yrul and Morris in this. I originally thought about adding Yrul as a cool idea, but now… I have an idea for when Zenon gets to the Diamond Kingdom, hehe. Morris' Modification Magic will be like Overhaul from My Hero Academia and Mahito from Jujutsu Kaisen. I decided to give Mars a little change at how he looks like and that is with a massive scar on his stomach. Why? Because I wanted to show how ruthless Jupiter is even towards the strongest of the Shining Generals. I have 2 OCs planned to be Shining Generals, their names will be Moe Benter and Molly Amber. What will they be? You will see when I get there. I kinda need help for the last one to replace one of them.

There are 2 new additions to the Eye of The Midnight Sun. One is Mito Muay, who is a reference to Muscular from My Hero Academia, but is more calmer than him. The first name is a reference to the powerhouse of the cell and Muay is based on Muay Thai. His magic is Muscle Magic. The other is Howard Agrippa, who is based on Gentle Criminal from My Hero Academia only in design as he is the younger brother of Nathan Agrippa. That is right, Gordon has an uncle that even he doesn't like.

I have finished Bleach's TYBW, PEAK, probably will catch up to Demon Slayer or MHA, started rereading the Manga and reading JJK, I am currently on Chapter 174 for that. And the new chapter has come up and I have to say, it was really fucking cool. I have an idea on how to add both the Mereoleona part of the Morris fight with my own elements to it.

I think that is about it, so see ya!
