Losing His Humanity

Fear of his power

Asta POV

I looked at Sister Lily as she was backing away from me. "She's scared of me?" I said as I felt the energy around me start to disappear. I then saw Yuno and my foster father run out of the church in a panic. They looked around frantically trying to figure out what was going on. "What happened?" Yuno asked as they both walked up to me and Sister Lily. "Yuno! Look, I have my Grimoire, isn't it awesome!" I exclaimed as I completely ignored his question. I was just so excited. The boy without magic, has a Grimoire! Yuno looked at my Grimoire and then looked at me. He had a confused look on his face. "I thought you didn't have any magic. How do you have a Grimoire?" My foster father asked me looking confused as well. "I don't know but it doesn't matter! Sure it's a little beat up but I'll love it forever!" I said rubbing my Grimoire on my face with my left hand while still holding my giant sword in my dominant hand. Yuno opened his mouth to say something but was cut off by Sister Lily. "Yuno, Father. Can I talk to you both for a moment?" She asked, still keeping her distance from me. They all went into the church, leaving me behind. "Was it something I said?" I thought as I decided to dispose of the man I threw against the wall.

Yuno POV

Sister Lily called me and Father to talk to her. When we were alone, we all sat down around the kitchen table with concern. "What is it Sister?" I asked getting even more nervous with the passing second. "Something..... happened with Asta." She started to explain. "He had this dark aura around him. It was such an intense feeling and it wasn't mana. It was something.... dark." She said with much fear in her eyes. This made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. "Was he really that intimidating?" I thought to myself as I continued to listen to Sister Lily. "I think that Grimoire is bad news, we need to take it from him so we can learn more about it. It's for Asta's own good. That Grimoire seems evil." She said getting more serious. "If you're sure about this, then I agree with you. Asta doesn't even have any magic, so I know that Grimoire must be bad news!" Father said with much confidence in his opinion. I just nodded my head in approval. "Why else would she be that concerned about the matter. I think I even saw for a split second something hovering over Asta, like a devil or something." I though to myself. "I will go get his Grimoire. He will probably be a little upset and skeptical about it but it's for his own good." I said as I began to get up from the table.

Asta POV

I heard everything they said. I can't believe it! Now that I have a Grimoire, they think it's a problem and now they want to take it away from me?! I was so full of anger. I just can't believe that since THEY are afraid of me, THEY have to take my power away! I couldn't stand for it so I took off running out of the church and into the woods. I guess my anger was fueling my energy because I ran really fast but I didn't know where I was going. I didn't care at the moment though, I just ran until I became tired and I stopped. I was sweaty, tired, but most of all; angry. I knew I wasn't going to go back after that, so I just sat down on the ground, still panting from all of that running. Then I saw a dark figure walk towards me. I didn't have the energy to grab my sword out of my Grimoire so I mustered, "Who....are....you," in between my gasps for air. Before I knew it the figure pulled out it's Grimoire and fired a spell at me and before I knew it, everything went dark.

Authors Note
Mana is a persons magical energy. It forms around you when you when you activate your magical powers. Kinda like an aura but it's visible. Hope this helps and I hope you are enjoying my story so far! But it's going to get much better, trust me!❤️
