The Anti-Mage Sin of Pride

X : Home

A/N:
Main Pairing: Asta x Noelle?

This chapter is pretty short, so I decided to split it up. Mostly because I keep editing and changing things.

————Black Bulls HQ————

Following the meeting Asta trained for hours before returning to the Black Bulls HQ. With about an hour to sunset and dinner fast approaching he needed to eat. Too much was on his mind all day to eat anything. Charmy would be horrified if she found out.

'I can't let them get away with attacking and killing people. They need to atone for what they did. The next time I see them, there will be no escape.'

Sitting at the top of the building was Finral with a serious look on his face. One would think he was thinking about something important. A mission. Or perhaps the recent attack. As a Magic Knight this kingdom was his number one priority.....

After women.

'I can't believe I got held up so long with Yami. All those women will be so lonely without me' he cried mentally. Hanging his head in defeat he noticed Asta was returning from his training. 'Thankfully a mixer is taking place in a couple days.'

Opening a Spatial Portal he stepped through and appeared before the boy. His plan to convince the young man. He had a few days. Might as well start now.

————Inside————

Dinner was on the way to the table soon. Everything was finally back to normal. Except, Noelle received a letter from her oldest brother Nozel.

———— Letter————

Noelle,

Please meet your siblings and I at the Coral Peacocks Headquarters tomorrow morning at 9 am. It is finally time you know the truth about what happened to our mother. I was planning on waiting longer before telling you. I realize it was for selfish reasons now and it can no longer wait.

Your brother,

Nozel

————End————

Noelle is completely speechless. 'He never reaches out to me.  I didn't know please was in his vocabulary. What does he mean "the truth about what happened?"' Her mind was frantic with these thoughts.

The door to the base opened. Asta followed by Finral.

Asta sat down and began writing back home to his family

Finral's hand met his face for the fifth time in the last five minutes. "Asta, I hate to break it to you. But I don't think anything you can do will make her say yes."

"If I become the Wizard king then She'll-"

Finral cut him off. "Asta, I'm serious. I know you don't give up on anything. She became a woman of the cloth. She will never marry anyone." He sighed, "how long have you known her?"

"Since I was just a baby," Asta said with a smile "she raised me with Father Orsi."

"So she's kind of like your mother then? You're attracted to older women!" Finral yelled pointing a finger at teen. He was proud of his junior.
