The next day after Asta and Noelle were now properly reunited after he regained his memory's. The two of them had spent most of the night catching up and Noelle was surprised that that Asta didn't end up getting magic but instead got the power of anti magic. The next morning Asta was wearing an apron and head scarf as he ran through the black bulls library with a brush cleaning the dust off the shelf's.
He then stood out at the back of the headquarters with a pile of laundry, "Scrub scrub stains be gone" he said washing a black shirt and when he reached back into the pile he looked confused as he pulled out one of Vanessa's bras and blushed.
"Why don't you let me take care of the women's side" said a female voice near him and he looked to see Noelle holding a basin of water, "Normally I don't usually do this kind of thing but it is the newbies job to take care of the chores" she said sitting down on the ground next to Asta taking the bra but looked confused on how to wash it.
"Here try using one of these" Asta offered smiling as he handed her a wash board, "Not that I'm not grateful the help but you could have slept in" he said.
"I heard you were taking care of the chores this morning and we haven't seen each other before yesterday in years" she said revealing her true motive for getting up early.
"Yeah I guess your right" said Asta rubbing the back of his head as he reached into the pile again only to pull out another one of Vanessa's bras making his face go red making him fall back.
"What other chores there are to do anyway" asked Noelle?
The two of them stood in front of the beasts cage with Asta holding a piece of meat forward, "Are you sure this is really safe" asked Noelle standing away from the cage?
"I'm sure it's fine, now back up beasty and you'll get a snack" said Asta walking up to the cage where the beasts stood back, "See that wasn't hard, I think they deserve a treat" he said stretching out the piece of meat. One of the beasts stretched its head out from the opening of the cage, only then to create a big hole biting down on the meat and Asta who screamed shaking his legs.
"Oh no, put him down" said Noelle pointing her hands at the beast as a water ball formed, she sent it flying at the beast only for the water to send Asta out of the beasts mouth onto the ground.
"LETS GET OUT OF HERE" yelled Asta as he ran past Noelle grabbing her hand and running away.
Asta now stood outside captain Yamis room while Noelle went to the main hall to tell them the beasts cage had been damaged, "Uh captain Yami" he said knocking on the door only to hear nothing, "Captain it's time to get up" he said knocking on the door.
"Will you just go away already" came the captains voice annoyed which made Asta run away.
"But you told me I had to wake you up" said Asta as he ran away.
Inside the main hall Asta sat at one of the tables next to Noelle and Charmy while Magna, Vanessa and Luck were sitting on the other side, "Gotta say I'm surprised a royal is helping out with simple chores, or is it you wanted to spend some alone time with Asta" said Vanessa winking at Noelle who blushed from the statement.
"Well I was Uh, just making sure he was doing it right" said Noelle brushing one of her pony tails back.
"I know this is a stupid question to ask but what is it a magic knights squad do anyway" asked Asta calmly?
"What you joined without knowing what we even do" said Magna looking annoyed, "We work together to fight for and protect the clover kingdom" he said giving the salute.
"It's also a nice way to meet some hot guys" said Vanessa blushing as she looked away taking a drink from the bottle that was in her hand.
"You can beat up bad guys and no one will say a word if you beat them almost to death" said Luck punching his fists forward.
"Ahhh" said Charmy looking frightened as the few plates in front of her were now all completely clear, "I haven't had enough yet" she said as her grimoire opened in front of her, "Cotton creation magic, sheep shefs". Multiple sheep's standing on their two back feet appeared in puffs of fluff wearing shef hats. They all started cooking and then multiple plates of food were now in front of Charmy who smiled seeing more food in front of her before she started eating that too.
"Being a magic knight is a good job, it's one my little sister Marie can look up to" said Gauche holding up a picture of his sister with blood coming out of his right nostril.
Grey then stood behind Asta and Noelle as his grimoire opened in front of him, there was a a puff of smoke and now he stood as a perfect imitation of Asta surprising the real Asta and Noelle, "Being a magic knight is hard work so that's why we all work together, I look forward to working with you" he said in Asta's voice before there was another puff of smoke as he changed back into his giant form.
Yami then walked nto the main room, "Hey Magna it's time" he said calmly.
"Uh yes captain Yami sir" said Magna standing up looking sirious as he started following his captain out of the room.
"Hey where are you guys going, if it's a mission can I come along" said Asta getting up from where he was siting only for Magna to stop hm.
"Sorry Asta but this is a mans work and your not ready" said Magna pushing up his sunglasses and walked out with Yami where Finral made a portal for them.
"The captain just left and he took Magna with him, this must be sirious" thought Asta thinking they were going on a sirious mission.
Later on it was the time for the beasts to be fed and Noelle decided to give it a try, "Are you sure this is safe" said Noelle looking worried.
"Don't worry" said Asta as he took out his big anti magic sword, "If they get near you I'll just hit them on the head" he said smiling.
Before she could thank him there was the sound of laughter and the two of them turned around to see Yami and Magna walking over to them laughing. But the two of them them looked surprised to see them only wearing their magic knight rhobes. Noelle quickly stood behind Asta so she wouldn't have to look at them.
"Man old man Seggey really got us that time" said Magna smiling.
"Yeah I didn't expect him to come out with that hand" said Yami as the two of them reached Asta and Noelle.
"Uh, what happenned to your clothes" said Asta looking surprised.
"If I had to guess the two of them must have went gambling, am I right captain" said a female voice from behind them.
"Oh crap" said Yami looking surpsied as Asta and Noelle turned around to see a woman with long hair tied at the back going down. She was wearing a silver mask with a yellow circle pattern on it. She was wearing a female chest plate and armour for her legs. Her black bulls rhobe was on and a cape hung behind her. There was yellow line surrounding the cape with her grimoire in a satchel than was on her right side.
"I know you surpass your limits when it comes to missions, but when it comes to gambling you should know when to stop" she said sirisiously.
"But Rosa how are we going to win if we don't keep trying" said Magna looking annoyed.
The woman now named Rosa ignored him and looked towards Asta and Noelle, "You must be our new members, Asta and Noelle am I right" she asked?
"Uh yes it's nice to meet you" said Noelle shaking the woman's hand.
"Don't worry about being in this squad, when it comes to fighting we get the job done" she said happily then looking at Asta, "I heard about your performance in the Magic Knights Entrance Exam, make sure to do your best" she said.
"Yes ma'am" said Asta saluting.
"Well we have somehting else to take care of, so meet up in the main hall" said Yami calmly.
"Please make sure to get dressed first captain" said Rosa.
The five of them now stood in the main hall where Yami sat down on the couch next to Rosa. He and Magna were now back in fresh clothes and revealed that the thing they went off to do was to gamble with a man from a far away village and they had even bet their clothess trying to win.
"Anyway that last thing we bet on was that if we lost we would take out some boars that's been bothering the village, so I'm sending you two out with Magna to deal with it" said Yami calmly.
"Uh is that really you we should be taking care of" said Asta.
"Yeah we weren't the ones who lost a bet" said Noelle.
"You idiots, you really think Captain Yami has the time to do something like this" said Magna siriously.
"Really" thought both Asta and Noelle when Yami stood up.
"You'll take care of it or there's going to be trouble if you don't" he said threateningly.
"You got it sir" said Asta and Noelle looking frightened.
"I know this doesn't seem like an ordinary magic knights mission, but do think of it as your first and then you'll have experience for when you start" said Rosa.
"Yeah I guess your right" said Noelle.
The two of them then stood at the back of the headquarters with Magna after finding out Finral couldn't use his spacial magic since he's never been to the village before, "So it looks like we're flying there" said Magna.
"Uh I don't have any magic so I can't fly, haha" said Asta laughing while rubbing the back of his head.
"How is it funny" said Magna looking annoyed.
"I can't control so my magic so it wouldn't be safe for me to fly" said Noelle calmly.
"Ugh, looks like ill have to fly you both there" said Magna walking over to something that was covered. He took off the cover revealing a broomstick with some modifications, there was a big seat, at the front was a skull with horns and handle bars sticking out of it, "This is my ride, crazy cyclone" he said.
"Wow it's awesome" said Asta smiling.
"It's not that impressive" said Noelle not looking impressed by its appearance.
The three of them then got on the modified broom stick, "Alright let's go" said Asta raising his left fist in the air.
"Are you sure you can fly with all three of us on it" Noelle asked Magna who was gripping the two handle bars in front of him?
"A man never goes back on his word, so let's go" said Magna as their was a blast of magic energy from behind the broom stick and it took off into the air with Asta cheering as they flew in the air.
"This amazing Magna I've never flew before" said Asta smiling at the experience of flying.
"Asta If you don't want to fall off then hold on" said Magna siriously.
"Oh alright" he said placing his arms around Noelles waist making her blush.
"Uh Asta do you mind moving your hands" she asked still blushing.
"Oh right sorry" he said moving his hands to her shoudlers while blushing aswell.
After a few minutes of flying the three of them reached the forest, Asta was currently running away from a big boar with flames on top of its head. The boar hit Asta and sent him flying past the tree line where Magna and Noelle were on a tree branch could see him. Magna was resting against the seat of the crazy cyclone.
"Shouldn't we help him" said Noelle looking worried for her friends safety.
"Nah hes got this handled, besides he should be able to take care of it and I need to rest after flying two other people" said Magna smiling as he rested.
Asta found himself in front of a small hilltop and turned around to see a boar looking at him, "Alright if you want some come get some" he said taking out his big anti magic sword ready to fight the boar when Noelle fired a blast of water meant for the boar but it ended up sending him flying.
"Sorry Asta" said Noelle.
"No it's alright, now I have better angle to hit it from" he said slashing the boars side making it fall down, "Thanks for the help Noelle" he said smiling only to see her looking down, "Hey what's wrong" he asked?
"How could you say it's alright, you were almost hert, what if I mess up again and you get injured worse then you could have been" she said clenching her fists annoyed with herself.
"Hey" he said placing his hand on her shoudler and he's looked at him to see he was smiling, "Remember what I told you when we met, you just need to train so you can get better" he said.
"Yeah your right" she said now looking determined.
"I hate to interrupt you two but there's more then just one boar" said Magna getitng their attention and they looked to see four more boars looking at them angrily.
A few minutes later the three of them were walking towards the village where Magna was carrying one boar and Asta was carrying four boars, "Are you sure you can carry all of that" asked Noelle?
"Yeah I can handle it" said Asta without a sweat on his forhead.
"So Magna If you and the captain gambled with the man do you know him" asked Noelle?
"Oh yeah me and Seggey go way back, my home village is not far from here so when I got my grimoire I thought I could take over the whole place, I was a real punk back then" said Magna laughing while Asta and Noelle looked calm.
"Something tells me he hasn't changed much since then" they both thought.
"Every time I would get there Seggey would always beat me in a fight, we fought many times after that, he was the one who told me I should try out for the magic knights and he's the one who helped me become the man I am today" said Magna smiling. But his look then turned to shock when they all looked to see the village covered by a mist.
They left the boar corpses behind as they reached the entrance to the village, "I can hardly see anything in there" said Magna.
"This isn't any ordinary mist, this was made by someone's magic" said Noelle.
"Your right, Hey Asta use your sword to cut through" said Magna.
"You got it" said Asta taking out his big anti magic sword and started cutting throughout the mist making it vanish. As they went through the village Magna and Noelle sensed something.
"You feel that" asked Noelle?
"Yeah there's a strong magic power coming from the centre of the village" said Magna, "Asta I know this place so I'll tell you where to cut" he said.
"Got it" said Asta as he continued cutting throught the mist and listenened to Magnas directions. They reached the middle of the village where the people were gathered into one spot, most of them were looking scared.
"Times up" said a male voiced bored as multiple ice spikes shot towards the villagers making them scream.
Magna ran forward with a flame ball in his hand, "Flame scatter shot" he said throwing the flame ball into the air which turned into multiple fire balls destroying the shards.
The villagers look surpsied that they were saved, then some of them looked at the rhobes, "It's the magic knights, they've come to help us" cheered the people.
Magna looked at the people, "Don't worry everything's going to be alright, wait" his eyes opened in shock as he noticed a man lying on the ground with his eyes closed and blood on his left side, "Seggey, Hey old man are you alright" he said rushing over to the man only to get no response.
A boy next to Seggey spoke, "Grandpa, were all safe now, the magic knights did show up to save us, just like you said they would" he said with tears in his eyes.
Magna then looked angry as he looked to his right to see five people in cloaks, four of them had their hoods up, the one who didn't have his hood up was sitting on stone and was holding a stop watch looking bored, "Hey are you the ones who hurt these people" he asked?
"It doesn't matter" said the man looking at his watch, "In about twenty seconds everyone here will die" he said breathing out and the air could be seen as if it was cold. His grimoire opened in front of him and A big piece of ice formed in front of him. The piece of ice shot then towards the villagers.
"I don't have enough magic to stop something this big" thought Magna looking worried when Asta jumped in front of him, "Asta" he thought looking surprised as Asta cut the giant piece of ice in two making it fall to the ground and it was gone.
Asta then landed on the ground and looked at the ones in the cloaks with a sirious look on his face, "Who are you" asked the man with the stop watch standing up to look at the young magic knight.
"I'm the one who's going protect these people from you" said Asta looking determined as he gripped the handle of his sword ready to protect the people of the village from the enemy mages.
