anti magic and water magic (On Hold)

chapter 54: the star festival

Some time after the the battle in the forest of witches. The black bulls were back at their headquarters enjoying their down time. But with captain Yami he was busy getting prepared for something as he put on a long blue robe and a a small white rope around his forehead. He then thought back to when he and Charlotte went to see Julius about giving him the magic stone Asta and the others had brought back from the queen of witches.

Flashback:

Yami placed the magic stone on the desk in front of Julius, "Here you go, came from the old lady herself," he said.

"Excellent, facing both the diamond kingdom and the eye of the midnight sun, the black bulls have really come far recently," Julius said smiling.

"Well are sure you don't hold back on rewarding us some stars for this," said Yami calmly while Marx looked nervous from his attitude.

"Don't worry I wont forget, by the way theres some good news and yet there is also some bad news on the eye of the midnight sun," said Julius, "First were getting closer to locating their hideout,".

"We must still be careful though, both Veto and Fana maybe gone from their ranks, but they still have their last member of the third eye, Rhya," said Charlotte as she remembered her battle against the copy mage.

"Which sadly leads to my bad news," said Julius now looking serious, "Their not stopping and soon they're going to be making their move," he said as he turned his chair to look out the window.

"I believe very soon, will be fighting them again,".

Flashback end

Meanwhile in the living area Asta was doing push ups with Noelle sitting on his back, "Now that my arms all better I can finally get back to strength training," he said while Noelle put her hands on his back.

"Will you be careful so I don't fall off," said Noelle looking a bit annoyed but was still smiled at the back of her boyfriends head.

"Yeah this is the life," said Magna who was siting on the couch, he had his right arm around Vanessa who was drinking.

"Yeah I could really get use to this," she said raising her bottle in the air before leaning closer to Magna as she leaned her head against his shoulder. Yami then entered the room getting everyone's attention and some of them looked confused wondering why he was dressed different. Besides the white rope around his forehead and the blue robe. He was only wearing a loin cloth on his bottom half and sandles.

"Alright everyone its time to get going to the festival," he said making some of the senior members cheer while Asta got up from the ground looking confused.

"Festival," he asked looking confused, "I gotta hear whats that's all about," he said now looking excited.

"Oh it's a blast Asta, they got all these different kinds of booths and the food is awesome," said Magna smiling while Vanessa laughed at his attitude.

"Oh now I really want to go, but wait Im still not understanding what it's all about," said Asta looking confused.

"Finral tell us what this festivals about and make sure you give us every detail," Noelle said pointing at the spacial magic user who smiled nervously.

"Don't talk like that, I'm still your superior," he thought before getting up from his chair, "As you both know each magic knights squad gets rewarded stars for their merit towards the kingdom, the squads compete to see who can get the most and this is the time of the year when their all counted up to see who has earned the most," he explained.

"Oh I get it now," said Asta, "I wonder what our rank will be," he said when Noelle spoke up.

"Yeah but since were in the black bulls were mostly competing for last place," she said when Yami spoke up.
