Black Clover: The Anti-Magic Knight

Chapter 23: The Mirror Mage

'My darling Marie, I have arrived in the town Nean where you live. You're big brother just finished a job. Being a Magic Knight is hard work, but if it's for you it's worth it. I, a former prisoner, am now living a decent life. It's all for you Marie, who is as sweet as an angel from heaven' thought Gauche as he walked down the streets of Nean village with a massive amount of presents and of course a bloody nose. 'This day, the special day where I'm able to spend it with you is sacred. Forgive me for being late, I bought you lots of toys I thought you'd like, please be happy' thought Gauche before he turned a corner and his smile turned into an emotionless stare as he watched Asta spinning a red-haired boy around while Noelle and Rebecca watched. But what set Gauche off the most was the fact Marie was playing with Asta.

"Alright it's your turn Marie" said Asta as he let the boy down and turned to Marie. However, before Marie could grab on, Gauche kicked Asta and started grinding his boot on Asta's face. "Get your grubby hands away from her, you filth" said Gauche as he grinded the bottom of his shoe on Asta's face. "Oh it's the bloody nosed walking sister complex" said Asta as he acted barley affected by Gauche. "Call me a walking sister complex again and I'll crush you like a watermelon" said Gauche as he stared pushing harder on Asta's head. "Sorry mister sister-con, but Asta's head is as hard and as dumb as a rock" said Liebe as he hovered over Asta's head and lightly hit it. " Yeah you tell him Lie- wait... what do you mean as dumb as a rock!?" said Asta as he started to get up causing Gauche to step back.

"The church in this town watches over my little sister. I only get to see her once a month, so these days are sacrosanct. Today is the one day a month I get to release all my pen-up emotions and worship my Marie like the angel she is, so why are you here worshipping her first!" said Gauche while giving off a murderous vibe. "Ha I knew it! You do have a sister complex!" said Asta as he pointed a Gauche before high-fiving Liebe, all while completely ignoring Gauche's look of hatred. "But to answer your question, we met Marie when me and Noelle came here to visit Rebecca and her siblings" said Asta while Rebecca awkwardly waved, " You do have an adorable little sister". "What else would she be, you idiot. Now stop staring at her you pervert" said Gauche as he grabbed Asta by the collar, 'you're one to talk!' thought Asta as he was being shacked.

"Big brother stop!" shouted Marie as she ran over to the two, "stop hurting Asta, he's gonna marry me someday!". 'Wait what?!' thought Asta, Noelle as everyone stared at Marie. "Oh my god look at Gauche!" shouted Liebe as he pointed at Gauche while he burst out laughing. Gauche appeared to become a stone statue and began to crumble into the wind. "Uh, Marie I'm sorry to tell you this bu-" Asta stopped mid sentence when he felt a shiver go up his spine as he turned around and looked at Gauche. Gauche had a psychotic smile on his face as blood started to leak from his eyes and as usual his nose, "I'll kill you". "Oh ho ho he's pissed" snickered Liebe as he floated beside Asta, "nice knowing you bro".

"My, it's rather noisy over here", an elderly sounding voice had caused Gauche to stop attacking Asta. "What are you doing here, Old hag?" said Gauche as he turned to see an elderly woman dressed in the attire of a woman of the cloth. "I've come to pick up Marie, it's time to go home" said the Nun as she walked over to the group. "Marie's is going on a date with me, go home Old Hag" said Gauche in an annoyed voice. "No can do. It's time you go home you sister-complex punk" replied The Nun causing Asta and Liebe to snicker behind Gauche. "I like this lady already" whispered Liebe to Asta while Asta nodded in agreement. "In any case, it's not safe for Marie to be around a felon like you. You have a terrible attitude, not to mention you have mean eyes and a filthy mouth" said the Nun. "I what, you damn Hag" replied Gauche as a vein mark appeared on his forehead.

"See? Filthy"

"Shaddup, Die"

"What a cruel thing to say to an old lady who's short on time"
