"Good! I understand, wait for it; I'll make you the best main course right now!" The Head Chef instantly regained his motivation.
"Ah? Aren't we supposed to be running for our lives!" The two cooks beside him were crying at this point, but Charmy jumped up with joy. She could finally get her wish and taste the most delicious food at the war merit award ceremony!
"Compared to life, cooking is obviously more important!" The Head Chef struck a classic Salt Bae pose, and in an instant, the entire dish seemed to be infused with a soul!
"Hahaha, idiot! Fool! I didn't expect that as the captain of the Crimson Lion Kings, he would actually walk right into the trap himself. Did he think that the Lord went through so much trouble to teleport him alone just to give him points?" The pink-haired youth Ladros laughed, saying. Now that the unbalanced existence of Fuegoleon was gone from the North District, wouldn't it become their world?
"The objective has been achieved, let's retreat too, Ladros!" The Spatial Mage Valtos said.
"How can we retreat so easily? My No. 1 Carl hasn't been released yet!" Ladros said unwillingly.
"If you don't mind losing your corpse spirits, I have no objection. You've also seen that no matter what number your corpse spirit is, as long as it is touched by those two Anti-Magic swords, it will lose control." Valtos said.
"Damn it, let's go!" Remembering how Asta took them out one by one with a single sword stroke, Ladros gritted his teeth and swallowed his anger.
"Want to leave? I'm not a turn-based character who just stands there listening while you talk!" Asta's gaze turned cold. He pressed his index and middle fingers together, crossed his hands in a cross-sign, and performed the Ram seal, directly summoning nine Shadow Clones to surround Ladros and Valtos.
"This set of movements, so... so cool!" Noelle's heart skipped a beat. She had never seen a hand-sealing movement before, and seeing Asta's crisp and neat set of movements, she just felt it was so dashing!
"Oh, it's a small matter, I'll teach you later!" Asta smiled, curling his lips. In fact, the Ninjutsu he learned through the system didn't require hand seals. Of course, hand seals could also trigger Ninjutsu. Just now, he saw Noelle's gaze was fixed on him, so he had a sudden inspiration to show off!
"Okay!" Although Noelle didn't know what use there was in learning this set of hand seals, she subconsciously nodded.
"Do you think you can block us?" Valtos laughed disdainfully, and then cast Spatial Magic under himself and Ladros.
"Flying Thunder God Slash!" Asta's nine Shadow Clones threw Kunai marked with the Flying Thunder God Technique Seal towards Valtos and Ladros, and suddenly, ten Kunai flew towards the two of them, crisscrossing.
"Teleport!" Valtos watched the rapidly flying Kunai in front of him and instantly activated Spatial Magic, but even the casting of Spatial Magic required time. And it was during this brief moment that Asta had already flashed to the position of a Kunai behind Valtos.
"Stay right there!" By the time Asta flashed to the location of the Kunai, he was already at half the distance to Valtos and his companion. This half-distance was enough for Asta to throw his demon-slaying sword and cut off Valtos's Spatial Magic!
"Ahahaha, someone who doesn't understand magic can only use such idiotic methods that wouldn't even touch a hair on my head!" Ladros watched the Kunai flying rapidly toward him without any intention of dodging. He even felt like laughing because, although the Kunai were fast, by the time they arrived, they would have already been teleported away by Spatial Magic.
"Oh no! It disappeared!" Valtos sensed with terror that the Spatial Magic he was about to solidify had vanished. He looked down and saw a demon-slaying sword stuck right at their feet!
"What disappeared?" Hearing the sound of the demon-slaying sword sticking into the ground, Ladros looked down and saw that Valtos's Spatial Magic had already vanished.
"Don't you think it's a bit late to be feeling fear now!" Asta flashed again to the Kunai closest to the two, raised his demon-slayer sword heavily, and swung it down at them, filled with rage!
"Carl!" Ladros's legs went weak as he looked at the demon-slayer sword that almost blocked out the sky before him. Such a massive greatsword, even without an edge, would be enough to crush a person to death!
"Summon!" Valtos hurriedly teleported Ladros's No. 1, Carl, over. Apparently, the speed of teleporting something in was much faster than teleporting something out. A spirit wearing a loose white robe, shaped like an Egyptian Pharaoh King, appeared and immediately solidified a magic barrier that looked just like an eggshell!
"Bang!" Asta's sword struck heavily against Carl's magic barrier, and for a moment, his body and the greatsword were stopped outside the magic barrier!
"Hahaha, shocked, aren't you? Carl is a master of magic defense, and with my curse power, it's now an impenetrable fortress. How could a piece of trash like you break it? And you ridiculously threw a few pieces of scrap metal at us, it's hilarious..." Ladros's arrogant voice came to an abrupt halt because he saw that Carl's magic barrier had actually developed cracks!
"Crack!" The cracks began to expand under the pressure of the demon-slayer sword, and finally, it shattered with a bang, like a severely damaged egg!
"No!" Valtos screamed in near despair, but Asta's greatsword slashed down mercilessly toward their shoulders.
"Bang!" Valtos and Ladros were sent flying backward like kites with their strings cut. Asta had pulled his strength at the last moment; otherwise, the two would already be corpses.
"Is it over?" Noelle opened her mouth wide. Asta was just too strong!
"Yeah!" Asta held up his demon-slayer sword and frowned. When had he become so weak that he'd been held up by two losers like this for so long?
Of course, this also had to do with the fact that he hadn't opened the Eight Gates. He believed that after opening the Eight Gates, a single dash would be enough to easily slap these two out of their Spatial Magic.
"What kind of monster has that girl Mimosa Vermillion fallen for!" Leopold was also shocked. He had to admit that if it weren't for Asta, he would have had a very difficult time dealing with even one Ladros. After all, Ladros hadn't even used that many spirits against him; he had just dispatched one spirit with an attribute disadvantage, and it had already taken a lot of effort for him.
The key was looking at Asta's expression; he was still looking unsatisfied!
