Night Time inside the Shadow Realm

"Asta explained to his brother what happened during the events in the Witch Forest"

Sung jin woo: So, that's what happened. Good thing your teamate stops the Queen in time

Asta: Yeah, Thanks to Vanessa's new spell, we won against the Witch Queen

Sung jin woo: You should be careful in the future, Now that you encountered something like that

Asta: Okay

Sung jin woo: Let's rest for today, tomorrow we will start training again

Asta: Alright

Sung jin woo: So, did you guys acquire new clues about the enemies plans?

Asta: The Witch Queen explained to us that The Magic Stones are magical items that heightens the wearer's power. And she also said something about the elves are the ones who can truly use it

Sung jin woo: Elves?

Asta: Yeah, do you know anything?

Sung jin woo: I only know that they were a race that has been wiped out 500 years ago

Asta: The Witch Queen said the same thing. But, do you think they're connected?

Sung jin woo: There's a possibility, maybe there's more to it?

Asta: What do you mean?

Sung jin woo: According to the story, The story about the battle of the Ancient Demon and the first Wizard King was 500 years ago, Now the Elves comes into play... "thinking" What if...that demon was the cause by the Elves?

Asta: Caused by the Elves?

Sung jin woo: You've mentioned before that the Midnight Sun hates humans, right?

Asta: Yes, I have

Sung jin woo: Think about it, that Demon almost destroyed the Clover Kingdom, which was the first Wizard King was from. Add the fact that the Elves hates the Clover Kingdom, Now suddenly new enemies appeared and they also hate the Clover Kingdom. Maybe the enemies are descendants of the elves or something?

Asta: Maybe that's why they're taking revenge! 

Sung jin woo: Exactly! 

Asta: But, something doesn't add up

Sung jin woo: What is it?

Asta: What is the purpose of gathering the stones?

Sung jin woo: That's a good question....

Asta: And the Witch Queen mentioned about forbidden magic

Sung jin woo: Forbidden magic? 

Asta: Yeah, the third eye of Vetto and Fana are said to be forbidden magic, but the queen said that they aren't the ones who activated them

Sung jin woo: I never heard of forbidden magic before

Asta: You haven't?

Sung jin woo: Yeah, this is the first time I heard it. Sorry if I can't give you extra info

Asta: It's okay

Sung jin woo: But...

Asta: What is it?

Sung jin woo: What if.... the magic stones are items for the enemy to use a forbidden spell?

Asta: Wait, that's a good theory

Sung jin woo: If that's true, then maybe that's their goal! 

Asta: To collect the magic stones and cast a forbidden spell?
