I apologize for the hiatus. Been building a house and IVF sucks.

"Foolish boy."
Nozel shook his head as he began leaving the cave. He was stopped however.
"We can't let a young magic knight chase them down. He could be killed."
"Charlotte, the boy is reckless. He is Yami's responsibility. Not mine." Came the swift reply as he began walking away.
"He is still a knight of the Clover Kingdom."
"And a boy who just saved your youngest sister. I felt your emotions. If you can sense ki you can feel intent and emotions. Good or bad. When Noelle got hit, you only felt 2 emotions. Fear and guilt. I don't understand the guilt. But the fear is easy." Yami began to walk in the direction Asta left. "Only one Captain needs to come with me. The rest can return to the town."
"I'll go." Jack said.
"No. I'll do it. Yami can't move well and while not ideal I can transport us much faster" Nozel stated.
"Alright. Let's go."

Asta quickly located the enemy mages. 'How did I find them so easily?' Shrugging, he jumped into the air propelling himself with magic. Landing just before the group.
"Now, we just started to have fun and surpass our limits. Where are you running to?"
'This boy is dangerous. We need a plan to escape.' Rhya thought. 'We are so close to getting out of the countryside and being untraceable.' Looking around he noticed the state his comrades were in.
Veto was holding his side in immense pain. Fana shook with her usual uncontrollable rage. Licht was still gaining his magic back.
"I'll hold him off. You guys go ahead." Rhya began releasing all of his magic.
"No" interjected Asta. Taking his axe he hurled it towards the mountain.
————Mountainside————
Finral was finally happy. He was peacefully walking back to the center of town with his squad mates and the missing children.
'All the babes are going to be all over me. All the grateful older sister and single mothers. Things are finally going my way today!'
Hearing the boy giggle to himself Gauche assumed the worst. "You better not be thinking of my precious Marie!"
"Huh, of course not. I'm thinking about all the grateful ladies!"
Noelle kept walking as the two continued to yell back and forth at each other.
An explosion went off behind her. Turning around to stop the argument she noticed Rhitta, Asta's axe lodged just short of the two mages.
Looking at each other Finral and Gauche paled. And fainted.
Laughing Noelle kept walking. They could take care of themselves. The kids were cold and hungry.
