Here is the fortieth-eighth chapter in this story released in accordance with the release schedule. Despite his attempts to plunge the Black Bulls and the Undersea Temple into despair he's not succeeded in doing so. He's done damage but the Black Bulls aren't giving up and are continuing to press the battle against him forcing him to reveal his true form. Now it's time for some new and old players to join in and see if they can shift the balance of power in this prolonged battle.

Chapter 48: Team
"So the Anti-Magic brat is back for more despair." Vetto said as he laughed following Asta's deflection of his attack, the Mythical Beast Magic roiling off him as he stood in front of the hole in the side of the Temple that Noelle's spell made. "It's impressive that you can still stand after all that I did to you but it will do you no good. Your body is barely holding itself together and now you are facing my true form, can you really defeat me now?"
"Of course I can!" Asta shouted still panting a bit but the defiance was clear in his voice. "You won't win!"
"That was rhetorical, brat, of course you can't beat me." Vetto responded his voice calm. "Still, keep that attitude because this this defiance is as nice as it is pathetic. I will relish in your destruction when I end this last shred of hope that you have. Breaking you will be fun and justice for what you did to Licht will be served. Yes, the mana is whispering to me and urging me to plunge you two insects into the depths of pain and utter despair. This will be one of the best feasts of despair that I've enjoyed in a long time."
"Asta, how can you speak, let alone stand up, with those injuries? Noelle asked from behind him not giving into despair at all while Tatsumi helped out Akame where he was though that was going slower than the couple realized due to his injuries. "They're grave, I can tell."
"It's thanks to Kahono." Asta said in a low, exhausted voice but his conviction was clear as day as his eyes never left Vetto. "She had enough strength left to heal me a little. It wasn't much but it was enough to allow me to intervein which is what matters."
"Kahono." Noelle whispered as she looked over to her friend who was now unconscious on the ground, blood running down her chin from her mouth. "Thank you."
"I could barely hear her Song Magic but I could and it got me back on my feet." Asta said. "She used the last of her strength to do so, we can't let that go to waste."
"I'm grateful, without her I'd be a goner." Noelle said knowing she should have listened to Tatsumi's order. "I owe her so much for that."
"We can't give up, we're all pushing past our limits to keep fighting because we've got to defeat Vetto." Asta said. "Once we've beaten him and protected the Temple, then we can find a way to heal Kahono's throat and Kiato's leg. If he can grow his arm back then there has to be someone else out there with that kind of magic. There has to be!"
"Yes but that wasn't natural what he did." Noelle pointed out. "He shouldn't have been able to regrow his arm, there's no known magic that can do that."
"Well he did so there's got to be something out there, oh and that reminds me." Asta said turning to look at Noelle his senses trained on reading Vetto's ki just in case the man attacked while he was praising his friend. "That insane spell you pulled off to hit Vetto, it was amazing! It totally psyched me up to keep fighting. What Tatsumi did was amazing as well but yours was even better, Noelle."
At that Asta raised his right arm and put it on Noelle's head. The physical contact instantly got to Noelle and she tensed up unable to speak as her cheeks suddenly felt warm, not that Asta noticed any of that as he continued talking to her.
"I always knew that you had the power to do something like that." Asta said as he rubbed Noelle's head. "You're as amazing as I always thought you were. See what a little control can do, once you master that, man I wouldn't want to face you that's for sure."
Noelle was bright red from the affection and praise that Asta was giving her so she was still unable to speak, or protest that he'd touched her royal person while actively denying that she loved the feeling and wanted Asta to do that again. Again Asta noticed none of this as he let go of her head and turned to face Vetto again who wasn't attacking at all.
"It's not just you, seeing Tatsumi and Akame go toe to toe with this monster and surpassing their limits in the process reminds me how amazing this Squad is." Asta said grinning. "Now it's my turn to do that as well, I can't let you or my seniors down now can I."
"Asta…" Noelle whispered as she grabbled with everything he'd just said and done but above all else a renewed hoped filled her knowing that he was still fighting.
"Please, you're nothing but a pitiful insect." Vetto said as Asta grinned at him completely unaware that Finral was watching from a nearby entrance and backing up unable to join the fight out of fear. "What will you achieve in this battle? You have no hope of beating me down here. I will kill all of you and then take the Magic Stone, there's nothing you can do to stop me."
"Shut up!" Asta shouted his teeth clenching. "Don't get cockier just because you regrew your arm and sprouted that ugly, freaky, third eye in the center of your forehead! You told me earlier that my biggest weakness was not knowing when to give up. You may see it as such but that's not a weakness. The way I see it, not giving up is the strongest weapon I've got! After seeing what my friends did to you, reminding me how amazing they are, there's no way that I'm going to let that be in vein! I'm not going to quit until my wish comes true! Never! I will be the Wizard King!"
Asta's words struck a chord with Finral as he was hiding out in the passageway behind Asta and Noelle's position, his retreat halted by what Asta was saying and now he was watching his junior as he shouted at Vetto showing defiance despite the seemingly hopeless situation before him. This, naturally, didn't work on Vetto though as all he did was break out into a maniacal laugh.
"You call your desire to die at my hands a weapon?" Vetto asked as he laughed. "Well, I'll give you that desire because you're about to find out how useless it is against someone like me. I'll teach an ignorant welp like you a valuable lesson seeing as you've never known true despair the way have when your kind slaughtered mine. Pay attention because I'm about to give you a taste of what true despair really is. However, before I relish in even more of your pain I think I'll clean up the trash here. I'll start with the Temple brats; they've despaired enough now that I've crushed their dreams so I'll take care of them before moving onto that nice line of beaten Black Bulls and end them before your eyes as well."
"No! Don't you dare!" Asta shouted but as he did the double magical circle appeared behind the Beast Mage.
"Mythical Beast Magic: Llewerafs Revolc!" Vetto said as Asta shouted at him to stop, which of course Vetto wasn't going to do.
As soon as Vetto was done a line of the unnatural magic flared up and shot into the air. There it exploded as soon as it reached its apex and began to rain down streaks of reddish brown magic that right at Kahono and Kiato where they lay. The others had been neatly lined up so Vetto could deal with them once he made sure the Anti-Magic brat was out of the fight.
Of course Vetto would keep the brat alive so that he force the boy to watch as he slowly killed his squadmates before his eyes and drive home how pathetic and hopeless his attempts to defeat the Beast Mage had been. Only after that would Vetto kill Asta as it really flavor his final despair, and that of his Captain who was impotently watching all this unfold, nicely.
At least that was the plan as the streaks of Mythical Beast Magic slammed into the ground and cavern wall where Kahono and Kiato where. However, right before they could glowing pink threads shot out from elsewhere in the cavern and grabbed the siblings and yanked them off the ground right so that Vetto's magic harmlessly hit the floor and wall.
The threads then moved the unconscious siblings to where Tatsumi had set up the others during Akame's fight with Vetto though whoever was controlling the threads made sure to put them at the far end of the line so as to not interrupt what Tatsumi and Akame were currently doing. At the same time, more threads shot out and bound Vetto's upper body pinning his arms to his sides. All of this occurred while Asta and Noelle stared in shock at what was going on and Vetto growled at the latest arrival to the battlefield.
"My, my, could this beastly man covered in fur be the notorious Vetto the Despair who I've heard so much about?" The new arrival called out, her voice clearly indicating to Vetto that she was female. "Seems likely all things considered but I must admit, you're much uglier and more brutish than I expected based on the stories the Captain told me. Sorry but you aren't my type at all. I like a rugged man, don't get me wrong, but you're far too much of a bore to interest me."
"Vanessa!" Asta and Noelle said at the same time as they turned to see the older woman walking into the cavern, pink threads whipping around her as she did.
The moment they'd seen the threads they knew who was coming. It was a bit of a surprise, neither had seen Vanessa fight before, or really put in any effort for that matter beyond drinking and going to Kikka with them, but that didn't bother them as they were glad to see her. She'd save Kahono and Kiato and now she was here to back them up.
"You know, I had planned on getting dead drunk today like I do pretty much every day and I would have been better off if I'd done that but it seems like there are other plans in the cards for me." Vanessa said as she looked at Vetto before she looked to Asta. "And as for you, Asta, you're a lot more reckless than I realized, same for Tatsumi for that matter actually, I didn't see that coming from him. However, it's because of your refusal to give up that I'm here to join the fight and to help build on Akame and Tatsumi's efforts. We can't let all that go to waste now can we so I think it's time for me to get on this train that's been moving ever since you three joined, don't you think?"
"Great timing Vanessa." Asta said with a grin. "We can really use your help."
"Train?" Noelle asked confused as she tried to processed what the older woman had said to them. "What do you mean?"
"The actually making an effort and getting stronger train." Vanessa said as she walked up to Asta and Noelle. "It really started when we got Tatsumi the year before you two joined, he showed us that we could be more though given his other role it was limited. Then Asta came along and he really kicked it up a notch. You and Tatsumi are similar in a lot of ways, you both inspire those around you to do better though Tatsumi is less forgiving. I finally get why the others have their eyes on you, Asta, you're the final piece we needed. Right Captain?"
Vanessa had glanced up towards where she sensed Yami would be watching them from knowing that he'd heard it. Yami had and he agreed with Vanessa entirely. The Black Bulls were a squad of misfit who didn't fit anywhere else, that was what Yami was looking for when Julius gave him a Squad of his own.
They were a place where those who the other Squads would reject could come together. It was because of that, and their habit of making things worse than they were before the Black Bulls arrived, that they'd built a reputation as black as their name but that had begun to change with Tatsumi.
While Tatsumi was a little rough around the edges, showed that in his entrance exam, and fit their mold, he was loyal, dependable, and driven to make things better for everyone in the Clover Kingdom. True his methods weren't necessarily the best way to achieve that, Tatsumi fully understood that he worked in a gray area with Akame and the pair did things for the kingdom to keep it peaceful and moving in the right direction that would, and could, never be known, his spirit had rubbed off and the process had begun.
Still, it wasn't complete. Tatsumi was a natural leader who inspired the Squad but because of his own past and how he operated he wasn't enough. They needed something more, something brash that refused to give up no matter what, someone who could overcome all in his path to rise up and be visible for all to see. That someone was Asta. Yami had seen it when Asta hadn't backed down from him at the entrance exam and the decision to recruit him had paid off in spades.
It was because of Asta's refusal to give up that the Squad had truly evolved. Noelle, Gauche, Magna, Luck, Akame and Tatsumi, had all been able to push past their own limits and grow in the few months since Asta had been recruited. Even Yami himself had managed that in the cave against Licht, and seeing Asta's defiance now only pushed him even more to figure out how to get out of his current predicament,. Now it was Vanessa's turn to do so and Yami sensed that it wouldn't just be her who managed it.
"Interesting, you really think that being stubborn in the face of inevitable defeat is enough to defeat me and win this battle?" Vetto asked as Vanessa looked back at him, speaking for the first time in a bit and not bothered by the threads that bound him, which he then showed by easily breaking free of them. "Pitiful humans. Cobwebs from a lowly spider like yourself couldn't begin to restrain me. Please, you can't trap a mythical beast."
"Well duh, what fun would this be if you actually stayed bound." Vanessa said. "It's going to be more fun to beat you than to trap you. I believe in Asta, if he says he's going to beat you then he will so I'm here for that ride."
"Keep talking, it will only build your confidence which will make your despair that much more delicious when it disappears as you realize how hopeless your situation is." Vetto replied. "You, witch, are just one more insect in a long line of them that I'm going to enjoy destroying. I must thank you all, though, you've come to me like lambs to the slaughter so it will really heighten your Captain's despair when I kill you all in the same place for him to see. Now, Mythical Beast Magic: Epohlla Puevig!"
The spell, the same one he'd used on Noelle that Asta had deflected a moment ago, suddenly appeared behind Vetto, magic circles and all. This time, however, it was faster and the blast of unnatural magic shot from the mythical beast construct's mouth and at the trio before they could really process the sudden attack.
That didn't stop Asta, however, as had tried to get his great sword out in time but it was looking like it would be too late. That was until a portal suddenly appeared before the Black Bulls and Vetto's Mythical Beast spell shot into it before coming out of the corresponding portal to his side turning his magic back on him. That didn't bother Vetto of course, he just deflected it up with his arm and it hit the ceiling where it exploded and covered the area in dust and debris but the move had saved the trio which was the goal of it.
"It would appear that there is still one more mouse scurrying around here that I didn't notice." Vetto said grinning at the additional arrival as the dust began to clear. "Welcome to the party little mouse, I'm going to enjoy killing you as well so thank you for showing yourself."
"Well would you look at that, the Squad's really been on fire today am I right? I've never seen us like this, not even when we took down that compound that trained Akame though that was pretty easy compared to this situation."
The question and subsequent statement came from who they all knew it would come from as only one of their Squad could make portals and with a sheepish, nervous look, Finral walked out from where he'd been hiding to greet them having just saved the trio. He'd been here for a while, ever since Tatsumi's change really, but he'd been unable to move except to try and flee until Asta's words had stilled Finral's flight though he was still too terrified to engage Vetto until now when he had to in order to save his friends and squadmates.
After all, how could he not? Vetto was stronger than Licht, Finral knew that from the cave and that wasn't counting the mana that was pouring off Vetto. Then, in his second appearance before some of the Black Bulls, Vetto had comfortably handled so many strong opponents. Not even Akame and Tatsumi, the two strongest in the Squad after the Captain, could counter him and that was with both learning news spells. Add in his regrowing of an arm after surviving Noelle's powerful attack and Finral had been too terrified to move.
As such, Finral's plan had been to flee and try to get help more help but when Asta showed his defiance he'd remained unable to move. Now with Vanessa, one of the more notorious slackers in the Squad, also stepping up to help, well, Finral couldn't stay back any longer. He'd been inspired by everyone to remain and then to act when Vetto had suddenly attack as his power was the best counter to that. He'd proven that true as he'd just saved the trio though he revealed his presence to Vetto in the process so now he was here for the battle as well.
"Finral, you made it!" Asta said smiling at his squadmate, he'd been so focused on Vetto that he'd not noticed Finral's ki until that moment. "Great! We could use your help as well."
"My this is a surprise." Vanessa said. "And I thought coming myself was unexpected."
"What can I say, our juniors have been giving it all they've got so we can't let them down." Finral said the nervousness clear in his voice as he reached them. "It's time for us to show off our most advanced stuff in front of them."
"Well then it's nice of you to finally show up at the party, Finral." Vanessa said going up to Finral and elbowing him playfully as he freaked out at the situation he'd ended up in. "You're usually so incompetent."
"Hey, you're one to talk." Finral said a little indignant though more because it was Vanessa saying it then the statement itself. "And why do you doubt me? Do you really think that I'm a coward?"
"All these ants, they're not even worth being called mice at this point, they can't even hope to inflict even a scratch on my true form." Vetto laughed before anyone could answer Finral's question, though no one denied his general cowardice either, as Finral told himself to not give up. "Two support magic users, a royal who's used all her magic, and the magicless garbage, you've got no hope against me but feel free to try, I'll enjoy crushing that hope before…"
"It's not just them or did you forget about us." A female voice called out from the side getting all their attention and interrupting Vetto in the process. "This is a team effort, that's how you slay a mythical beast, and we're not out of this yet. Asta's right, we won't give up until this swarm of ants have taken you down. Plus, I'm sure that I can inflict more than a scratch on your true form, it's just a shame that a scratch isn't all I need anymore."
Everyone turned and stared at the source of the voice. They all knew it well, the slight edge to it showing just how serious the speaker was, so they weren't surprised to see that Akame was still in the fight having had enough time to recover and manage her wounds before returning to the battle. What none of them were expecting was what they saw as she casually walked over to their group.
Akame was now decked out in a red and black suit of what looked like iron and leather armor in a style only Yami recognized as it was reminiscent of the kind worn in his homeland minus the helm and face mask. The armor was banded and contoured to fit Akame's body perfectly and clearly protected her vital spots while also keeping her mobility intact as well. On top of all that, the Black Bulls was emblazoned on the center of the chest piece adding to the whole image though none of them recognized the owl and moon insignia on her shoulders.
However, even more surprising was what she was holding. In her right hand she held her altered katana, Kiriichimonji as she called it, that would cut Vetto and inflict wounds that wouldn't heal. That was to be expected, at least that she'd have a katana, what wasn't, and in a way was more of a shock than the armor that she now wore, was that in her left had she held Tatsumi's normal sword.
Akame held both blades out to her side in a pose reminiscent of Asta when he held his two swords at the ready only these were two that didn't look as odd being duel wielded the way Asta's did though that was because one of his swords was a great sword. Judging by the deadly confidence of Akame's walk and the way she held the swords there was no doubt that she knew how to duel wield them.
"So cool!" Asta said stars in his eyes as Akame approached them, she'd sensed the ki going on but with Tatsumi's spell and his injuries things had taken until now to finish though neither of them had realized how long it had taken. "Where did you get that armor! Also since when can you duel wield or use a sword that isn't a katana? I thought that was what you always used."
"Just because I'm a master with a katana doesn't mean that I don't know how to wield another style of sword, or any other kind of blade for that matter as I'm also trained in knives and daggers, I just haven't had the need to yet though I did have Tatsumi's sword in the cave after I gave Murasame to the Captain just in case." Akame said as Vetto's grin faded a bit, the reborn girl was an actual threat if she was allowed to get close enough to use that altered katana of hers. "As for duel wielding, it's not something I've done often but I am one of the best swordsmen on this continent so of course I can do it if the need arises.
"Amazing!" Asta said and Noelle had to agree, she'd seen Akame's skills first hand today but this was a whole new level for the girl and really showed her how much she'd underestimated what Akame could actually do. "I can learn so much watching you."
"You'll learn even more fighting by my side." Akame said. "And you're ready to do that Asta though this is a bit of a trial by fire."
"And the armor, that's what you meant by we." Vanessa said with a smile as Asta processed what Akame had said while she lightly leapt up onto the platform that the others were on due to the groove that Vetto's earlier spell had carved into the ground before Asta redirected it. "Tatsumi's lent you his power as well. There isn't any other explanation for it really."
"Correct, he can't fight with that gut wound he took but he can use magic and this is a spell for such a moment." Akame said as she reached them and turned to face Vetto while Yami watched and noted that Akame and Tatsumi were really surpassing their limits again with this though even he was taken aback by Akame's apparent ability to both duel wield and wield a non-katana sword. "The spell's called Ally's Ideal Suit and it creates the ideal suit of armor for the user and apparently this is mine. I can tell that I'm going to be faster, stronger, and tougher with this without sacrificing my mobility or sword skills. That's how Tatsumi can lend aid so we can all take down this monster."
"Ha, interesting, seems like you reborn souls still have a bit of fight left in you." Vetto said his grin returning as this only added to the situation at hand. "Very well, it will only sweeten the despair when I crush you beneath my feet like the insects that you are. Don't worry, I'll make sure that Kurome knows how I killed you in excruciating detail. Her despair at not being able to do the deed will be a nice little dessert for me when I return with the Magic Stone."
"Keep talking, it won't change what's coming." Akame said a deadly coldness coming into her voice that sent shivers down the spines of the Black Bulls present, other than Tatsumi, as Akame had resolved to not kill her sister this time around but rather do everything she could to save her, something that Asta had helped show her that she could do that. "You will die here today; I can guarantee that."
"Coming from Akame that's basically a certainty." Vanessa agreed. "And on that, Noelle."
"Yes." Noelle said looking at Vanessa.
"You've used a lot of magic but do you have any left over?" Vanessa asked the younger girl. "If you do, we need you to protect the others with it."
"Yeah Tatsumi's magic is too low after placing this spell on me." Akame said. "He's got enough to make some shields but against this kind of power they won't adapt in time. We need your strength there more than anything right now. I knew you had it in you, Noelle, you showed that and got this monster to reveal his true form with your power. It's going to thanks to you that we finally finish this."
"Yes, I've got enough magic left to protect the others so leave it to me." Noelle said with a nod as she turned and rushed off to protect the others, again, knowing that this was the best place for her in the coming battle and pleased at the praise from Akame. "I'll leave the rest to you."
"Don't worry, we've got this." Akame said looking at Vetto. "We will kill this mythical beast."
"Agreed but my goodness." Vanessa said as even more magic flared off Vetto though he still didn't attack, he just continued to grin at them. "The amount of magic that you have pouring off you is daunting."
"You're right." Asta said as Finral laughed nervously. "This is going to be tough."
"You can't see magic though." Finral pointed.
"True I can't sense or see his magic but I can feel his ki." Asta said. "It's more malevolent than anything I've sensed before."
"I agree, that ki is something else." Akame said. "And I can feel the magic as well. I'm not even trying to sense it which shows how strong it is. Still, it's just magic so it can defend against magic but not steel."
"Yeah, I'm not the only one weak to physical attacks." Asta said grinning at Vetto. "Am I?"
"Regardless of that fact, one direct hit from him and it's over." Vanessa pointed out. "There's no escaping death with him."
"Not the first time that I've stared death in the face like this." Akame said as if it was normal, which to her it was. "And it won't be the last time either. Better people than Vetto have tried to kill me, they all ended up dead instead."
"This isn't good, we're starting in a corner that's going to be really hard to get out of." Finral said his pessimism still present though he wasn't put off by Akame's comment as he'd gotten used to her abilities and lack of hesitation when it came to killing. "I'm not going to cry but, well, I might."
"That's fine but if you help us win then I'll give you a nice, long, close, tight, hug." Vanessa said with a smile as she leant up onto Finral causing him to back away stunned by her words. "Yup, I'll even let you cry into my bosom all you want."
"Now your talking!" Finral shouted as he got psyched up at the offer from Vanessa. "Let's do this!"
"Wow what did Vanessa do!" Asta said amazed. "Finral's ki's just gone through the roof."
"Sex, or in Finral's case contact with some of the most impressive breasts that I've ever seen, is a powerful motivator." Akame said not bothering to look at how pumped Finral was getting, she didn't need to as she could feel his ki as well and knew that Asta's assessment was correct. "I'm not offering that though, only one man can bury his head in my ample bosom. Can't wait for that again."
"Oh we are so talking about that afterwards Akame." Vanessa said with a smile as a magical threat came from her hand. "But yes, most men are so predictable and easy to control. What's the saying, 'men have two heads but only enough blood to fill one of them'? It's pretty accurate in most cases."
"Not for Tatsumi." Akame said. "Or Bulat for that matter though in his case it was because he's attracted to men not women."
"Yes some have strong wills or just don't like women but the latter works with the right man." Vanessa said as the thread snaked around Asta's hand to help secure his grip on his sword. "But enough of that. Asta, with the amount of magic this guy has, normal attacks won't work but we've got your Anti-Magic which will work so you can't let go of that sword."
"Ma'am!" Asta said seriously.
"Akame, I presume you don't need my help." Vanessa said. "But the same applies to you, your physical swords will be key in this."
"No, your threads would get in my way and complicate things." Akame said. "Your fine magic control is top tier, Vanessa, but you need to focus on Asta in this battle. I can use the mana in this cavern to increase my mobility so I don't need your threads for that."
"You sure that that will be enough?" Finral asked. "What about Asta's movements?"
"I can read ki, I'll know them in advance." Akame said confidently. "Between ki, mana zone, and my own skills I can hold my own. Vanessa's got Asta and we've all got you Finral, I'll play off it all and you play off me at the same time. We're a team, that's how we work and how we will win."
"Akame's right, our lives depend on this." Vanessa said as Finral stepped forward. "We can't lose."
"Yes we'll beat him." Finral said as Vetto just laughed.
"Akame, do what you do best." Vanessa said. "We won't let anything happen to Asta. Trust us and we'll work in conjunction with your movements."
"Oh I will." Akame said as she tensed. "And I do trust you, I trust all the Black Bulls. Together we will slay this beast!"
With that Akame pushed off the ground with enough force to crack it and shot at Vetto, a red and black blur faster than she'd ever been before. The Black Bulls still weren't out of this fight yet as Vanessa and Finral leant their power to the battle and pushed it into the next stage as the teamwork of the Black Bulls refused to give up against Vetto the Despair.
Sorry for another cliffhanger and the short chapter, I had planned on this being the culmination of everything but when I was drafting it I realized that the prelude to the final fight was going to be longer than anticipated and the final fight would make this significantly longer so I once again broke things up. This does mean that the recovery chapter should be chapter 50 though so a good place for that and I can get this out after some personal delays so this works out best and I can really focus on the final battle next chapter. That is really all that I have to say for this chapter, not much more to it as it's the setup for the final battle so I will leave it off here. As always, if you like my story then please follow, favorite, review, PM, etc. it is all appreciated and helps me get better and stay motivated to keep producing more content and any questions asked I will do my best to answer both privately and at the start of the next chapter. Until next time.
