"If I pretend that I am still Zesop, then I may be able to catch Lady Seresu off guard... her use of defense with spatial is amazing..." Asoka states to Nozel
"If she has the same goal, then she may be headed to the Kingdom. But how will we know that Mahaan has not gotten to Seresu yet?" Captain Nozel asks, and Asoka picks up the empty Magic Item, but since Asta was reaching for it, she just gave it to him.
"Then I will have no room for hesitation... as Lady Seresu did for me... I won't let her efforts be wasted. I will bring her back even if it kills me." Asoka swore until she got a chop on her head by her own brother
"WHAT ARE YOU SAYING EVEN IF IT KILLS YOU!? WHO ARE YOU RIGHT NOW!?" Asta screams at her
"Asoka has been trained under the best of servants, and butlers this kingdom has to offer. She was once Seresu's personal servant, meaning she would constantly put the life of her master before hers... Even if you are her family, not even you have a right to question that contact." Nozel tells Asta, who grits his teeth in frustration.
Remembering the times when Asoka would come home with new injuries.
Or the time when they received their Grimoire and fought a rouge knight.
"....That's-"
"Asta..." Asoka cuts her brother off turning to him and Yuno
"Captain Nozel is right....that is what I signed up for, and Lady Seresu will always be my first priority when it comes to any moment..." She tells the two and Mimosa and Noelle looks at her sadly
"But now I'm also a Magic Knight...This job... is not without risk..." She smiles putting her hands on both of their shoulders
"She's my future Squad Captain, so as her future Vice Captain I will take all risk to get her back...Because that's what it means to fight for a friend, I'm sure you two don't need me to tell you that..." Asoka says smiling at the two
Asta and Yuno nods and she turns away from them frowning but looking ahead.
"(...It's as if... She only said that so they wouldn't worry... What are you hiding Asoka?)" Noelle thought looking at her friend
"Then I'll go with you-" Noelle gets cut off by her brother
"No. you will stay with me to the Capital. You are royalty and I will need you by my side." Nozel tells her
"Captain Nozel is right Lady Noelle, the elves will be focusing their forces into the strongest first to the King... with your honed power you will be a great addition to the reinforcements in offense and defense." Asoka smiles at her
"Me and Lady Seresu will join the battle soo-" Asoka stops and steps ahead sweating
"The village." Asoka says causing her brothers to get ready too
"We grew up in that village we have to help!" Asta says
"It will only waste our time and you two are pivotal for our success. That said, finish it quickly and meet us back at the Capital." Captain Nozel says
"Right!" The three of them saluted and they didn't even bother to aid each other and used their fastest spells

"(These people barely have any mana to reinforce their bodies! How cruel... their deaths should have been swift since their age had nothing to do with the elves LET ALONE IT BEING A KNOWLEDGE TO THEM!)" Ceres thought looking back at the priest that had defended him even though he was of royalty
