Return of the greatest magic knight (soon)

The trip (part 3)

(This takes place right after Liebe left the room)

Noelle suddenly walks on the deck and slaps Nozel with tears running down her face. "What gives you the right to choose who I do or don't love." She looked at him angry. "Noelle your a royal if you date a commoner that'll bring disgrace to our family name!" Yet again Nozel was slapped Noelle yelled "I DON'T CARE IF HE'S A COMMONER A NOBLE OR A ROYAL THAT MAN SAVED MY LIFE MORE THAN YOU EVER DID YOU SHOULD BE THE ONE THANKING HIM THAT IM STILL HERE! THAT ANYONE IS STILL HERE!" "HES ALSO THE REASON FOR THE LAST FIVE YEARS YOU ALMOST NEVER LEFT THE BASE!" Nozel said as a retort.

Before he could say anything else black hand grabbed Nozel and pushed him on to the ground. Nacht squatted down next to Nozel and said "I'm the reason he had to do that I was also the one who stopped her from following him." Nacht said with a cold expression. "He may have been stupid back then but lately he's seemed to be smarter than even me." Nacht said which surprised both Nozel and Noelle "What do you mean by that?" "Lately he's been thinking ahead way more ahead than I ever did he's also started strategizing and forming plans if something goes wrong somewhere." The Silvas look shocked Nacht one of the smartest in clover kingdom called Asta smarter than him. "He's also been holding back when training or even attacking anyone. Miss royal in that dungeon did he ever take out a sword?" Noelles eyes widen as she says "No he only kicked one and chained the other guy." Nozel is shocked that he had done away with bandits with only a kick and a spell. "So what does this have to do with Asta being good for Noelle." Nacht opens his eyes and looks at Nozel as he says "Would you want to be on the other side as that man attacks a kingdom? He's already stronger than everyone here give him a few months and he'll be stronger that Julius in his prime."

"Asta let me in." Liebe said as there was a silence. "Man at least let me get in the grimoire." He said in a complaining tone. Asta pushed his grimoire under the door still silent. Liebe flew over to the rooms when Noelle was walking back from the dock when she noticed Liebe holding Asta's grimoire. "So he's not talking?" Noelle asked as Liebe shook his head "Can I sleep with you he needs some time to think. Even though he's been doing that a lot already. I won't bother you if you can just put the grimoire on you bedside table or something I should be fine." Noelle agrees as the grimoire lands in Noelles hands and Liebe disappears.

Asta is sitting in the front of the door legs tucked into his chest and head resting on his knees as he was thinking about what Nozel said. "What if you never came back?! what if she waited and never married?!" These words kept on repeating in his head apart of him was glad that he said she would've wait but hurt him because she would've never experienced love or getting to have children. After a few minutes Liebe said "Asta let me in." Asta didn't want to bother Liebe with his problems. "Man at least give me the grimoire." Asta slid it under the door knowing that's how he sleeps. He felt Liebe's presence start to fade before he felt an angry presence start to come towards him and stop in front of his door before kicking it down.

"That braids making my squad members depressed where does he get the right to do that?" Yami mumbled to himself before walking in the room "Yo." He said raising his hand. Asta was surprised Yami was the one to come talk to him if anything he thought it was going to be Finral. "What's up captain yami." Asta said with a little giggle. "Nacht told me what happened you don't need to hide it. Also I can feel your ki." Asta looked at him as tears started to fall. They both decide to sit on the side of Asta's bed as Yami said "Don't take his words to heart he's a royal who's scared to lose his sister that's the only reason she went to the black bulls." Asta looked at Yami and said "I know deep down he cares but he had a point never once in the underworld did I think to ask myself what I had been doing to Noelle I only thought about how it would be when I got back." Yami pulled Asta in for a hug and said "It doesn't matter what didn't happen what matters is you made it back so stop thinking about what he said." Asta was taken by surprise the usually mad Yami hugged him. Asta started to cry into his shoulder.

After a few minutes Yami left as he left he felt Asta's ki and noticed he had gotten happier. It was night time when asta looked out his window an saw all the stars while staring he said "I have to see these with Noelle next time." "You do but it still doesn't count as the date you owe me." He turned around to see Noelle standing there with Liebe on her shoulder. "I would've knocked but it looks like Yami already did." She said with a smile.

He stares at her for a second before a puff of smoke comes off his head and he becomes flustered covering his face. "Who knew the almighty Asta could get embarrassed like that" Liebe said as him and Noelle smile. "So you want to see the stars?" Asta asks. "Yes I would love to." She said in a loving tone. As they make it to the dock Asta says "Liebe told me why you were acting like that yesterday." "He did?" She said sending a death glare at Liebe. "He did and I was thinking of giving you an answer after the mission but it's been killing me so I'll say it." Noelles heart sank and she looked down as she thought "Maybe Nozel got the best of him and he's gonna break up with me." "When we get back I want to become a family."

Noelle looks up with tears in her eyes and says "Are you being serious but I thought you would've wanted to wait." "I've waited five years in the underworld to be with you I really don't wanna wait anymore." He said smiling at her as he got on one knee. "Noelle I love you your my best friend and lover will you marry me?" Under the stars the moonlight shines on Asta and Noelle. Noelle tears flow out more as she nods her head and says "Yes!" Asta stands and gives her a huge bear hug. He back up a little and puts his hands and her shoulders as their faces get closer. Noelle having to go her tippy toes and Asta having to crouch their lips touch. They hold it there for a few seconds before. "Man we wanted to train not be in the middle of a rom com." Asta and Noelle turn around to see the young bulls. Nash and Marie blushing while Nick is there sulking hoping he'll find love at some point. Noelle turns around and says "Lets see how effective your ki is, HM?" The young bulls quickly turn around and run while Noelle chases them completely red as Asta is laughing his ass off. "I can't wait for you to meet her, mom." He thought as he looked at the moon.
