The fourth leaf of a clover holds good luck,

while the fifth leaf is said to be home to a demon.

In the Clover Kingdom, a land where magic is everything,

Asta is the only boy who cannot use magic.

He continues to train harder than anyone else to become the Wizard King.

What Asta eventually gains is the power of Anti Magic, which can nullify all magic.

Meanwhile, the Dark Triad ruling the Spade Kingdom

gains the power of devils from the underworld and begins invading other kingdoms.

After a fierce battle, Asta and the others defeat one of the Dark Triad, Dante,

but Captain Yami, Vangeance, and Queen Lolopechka are taken away.

Determined to rescue them, Asta seeks to master the true power of the devil.

The Clover Kingdom's counterattack begins now!

SPADE KINGDOM

I assume my brother's going to be all right...

...Morris?

Come on, I was in charge of all the sorcery studies in the Diamond Kingdom.

He'll recover just fine.

And he'll be even stronger than before.

Even the magic used for the Ritual of the Advent was gathered by the Candelo I created.

You should trust me more.

I was driven out of the kingdom because of that traitor Mars, but...

It led me to a much more interesting place!

I'm grateful to you all!

Yeah, I can't wait to fight that boy again!

Have all the other preparations been taken care of?

Everything is going smoothly. Right, Lotus?

Yeah.

This is really bad in all sorts of ways.

CLOVER CASTLE

The tree that connects the underworld,

where the devils dwell, and our world... Tree of Qliphoth.

Yami and Vangeance are needed to create it.

In three days, the gates to the underworld will open.

Before that happens, we'll rescue Yami and Vangeance and destroy the Tree of Qliphoth.

This time, we're the ones going on the offensive.

To think I can do nothing as the Wizard King at a time like this...

You chose right.

However, right people aren't always rewarded.

We're up!

So, be stronger.

Don't lose to the irrational evil.

Unite Mode: Canis.

From this point on, what you call training begins in earnest.

Come at me...

...and defeat me.

PAGE 171: THE BATTLE BEGINS

Asta, the only way for you to get stronger is to unite with that devil

and draw out 100% of your Anti Magic power.

A tail?

Huh? Liebe's gone?

I'm here.

You're so tiny!

It looks like this is what happens when I give you my power.

In Devil-Binding contracts, the human is always in complete control.

That's why I can use Unite so easily.

What you're doing isn't Unite.

You're just letting the devil's power flow out.

Oh, right, Liebe said something like that too!

So how can I use your power?!

Beats me.

I was planning to take over your body and fight, after all.

It was also my first time fighting outside.

That's why even a guy like you can beat me.

So you don't know anything?!

After you talked like a big shot?!

This bullshit contract was all your idea!

You do something about it!

But I don't know either!

I see.

I suppose you'll have to figure it out as you fight.

By using Unite, I can imbue my Shadow Magic with the abilities of different devils.

One of Gimodelo's abilities is...

...the "Pack."

Every one of them has the same Ki as Vice Captain Nacht!

The shadows won't disappear until you defeat me.

He blends in with them...

And I can't tell where he is!

So Vice Captain Nacht has made contracts with four devils?!

Does that mean he's been face-to-face with death that often?!

Now that Liebe and I have formed a contract, our bond is stronger than before.

I should be able to draw out more of his power!

You formed an equal contract with the devil.

Since you don't control the devil, it's only natural that you can't use all of its power.

This is the path you chose.

Try to use that power to defeat me!

Yes, sir!

I'll surpass my limits right now.

Demon-Slasher.

Your name is the Demon-Slasher Katana.

Let's go get Captain Yami together!

Let's surpass the limits right here, right now!

I really don't like that phrase.

Thank you for training with me, former Vice Captain Langris.

That "former" was uncalled for.

You're as nasty as ever, huh.

I'm no match for you.

Come to think of it, where's that noisy little spirit?

Bell hasn't come out of my grimoire.

Honestly, it's unbelievable.

You managed to get this far without the spirit's power.

Another loss for you guys.

Vice Captain Nacht is unbelievably strong!

No matter how many times I try, I just can't see a way to win!

And he's probably not even fighting for real yet!

So this is the power of Unite!

Why can't Liebe and I do that?!

The injuries I suffered in Black Form were also inflicted on Liebe!

Yummy!

And my wounds and stamina are recovering!

You said the Spade Kingdom resistance members made these with magic, right?

I should thank them when I see them!

Eating something sweet gave me an idea!

Come with me, Liebe!

When he gets like this,

there's a 10% chance he'll come up with something insanely brilliant.

Combine!

He was, of course, in the 90% idiot category.

This isn't the time to mess around, you 90% idiot!

I'm not messing around!

By fighting like this, our minds and bodies will become one!

Aren't you tired of being a goody-goody?

What about you? Doesn't doing your own thing get tiring?

You idiot. What's tiring about being free?

If becoming one were this easy, we wouldn't have a problem, you 90% idiot!

What did you say?! You're the one on top, so stop complaining!

It's almost time to meet up.

What?! It's already been two days?! I didn't even notice it!

Guess I have no choice.

If it's not going to work anyway...

...then die here.

Liebe!

Mana Zone: Dark Prison Hunting Ground.

It's pitch black...

This is...!

I can't sense their Ki at all!

There's no way to dodge their attacks!

You did have potential, but what a shame.

Death is creeping upon me from the darkness I can't sense...

This is true terror!

Dammit! Our backs are really against the wall, but why...?!

Both Asta and I want power...!

But why... Why we can't Unite?!

If I'm going to save Captain Yami...

If I'm going to avenge Licita...

I can't die here!

And also... I can't let this guy die either!

He intentionally avoided hitting me directly.

He didn't even touch me, yet the Unite on my arm was nullified.

And he erased my intangible magic along with the Mana Zone!

Anti Magic... If he can really unleash its full power, then...

He will be the strongest.

I lose.

Alright! Then, let's hurry up and go!

No.

Why not?! Liebe and I managed to use Unite!

Yes, but only for a moment.

You haven't mastered it yet.

You must know that, too. Don't you?

He's right. But we've come this far...

If you went into enemy territory like this, you'd end up dead.

But I...!

I watched you

and the other Black Bulls using shadow magic.

Huh?

You were born without magic. And you were possessed by a devil by accident.

And toyed with by cruel fate.

But...

You were always right.

I said that people who were right weren't necessarily rewarded.

But I would like them to be.

Vice Captain Nacht...

I'll leave Gimodelo here.

We'll do the best we can until you get there.

So make sure you're ready...

...and come join us.

Yes!

If they hit me with that, I'm dead meat!

You're so cruel, Mister Nacht!

Please take care of us, Gimodelo!

T-They want me dead so badly!

All right, let's go.

Looks like everyone's here. Are you guys ready?

CRIMSON LION CAPTAIN, FUEGOLEON VERMILLION Where's Asta?

AQUA DEER CAPTAIN, RILL BOISMORTIER It's going to take him a little longer.

GREEN MANTIS CAPTAIN, JACK THE RIPPER Heh, it's not like we're

GREEN MANTIS, SEKKE BRONZAZZA counting on him in the first place!

BLUE ROSE CAPTAIN, CHARLOTTE ROSELEI Aww, Asta is not coming?

VALTOS - SALLY - RADES SPIRITO Well, I guess that's okay.

VALTOS - SALLY - RADES SPIRITO Looks like I'm about to see

VALTOS - SALLY - RADES SPIRITO something really interesting.

CORAL PEACOCK CAPTAIN, DOROTHY UNSWORTH It'll be a great test for the magic items I made

GOLDEN DAWN, LANGRIS VAUDE after studying Asta's physical makeup!

SILVER EAGLE CAPTAIN, NOZEL SILVA Are these robes she made for us really safe?

MAKUSA NORTH Sally is a little odd,

MAKUSA NORTH but when it comes to magic item research,

RALPH NIAFLEM she's second to none!

RALPH NIAFLEM So you don't have to worry!

Makusa! Don't butt in just because this is about magic items!

Oh, take a look, Rades!

This robe has an effect that conceals your magic power!

After studying Asta's Anti Magic, just as Sally suggested...

- Shut up! - Magic really is fascinating!

- Good grief. - Magic really is fascinating!

Wh... Why...

Why do I have to join this dangerous mission with all these crazy strong people?!

Sure, I spent the past six months living it up, but...

Sekke! Go ahead and display your latent power for me!

Fuhha!

Nobody told me I was headed into a hell like this one!

I don't know why you're here,

but if you're doing this, you'd better get serious about it!

Sacrifice yourself for the sake of the people who are right.

Will Asta make it in time?

He'll definitely come.

GOLDEN DAWN VICE CAPTAIN, YUNO But I'll end it all before he arrives.

Nuh-uh! It'll be me!

It won't be you either.

Shadow Magic: Shadow Corridor.

It'll be us.

Oh?

They're here.

It's the Resistance.

Listen up, Dark Triad!

17 years ago, you killed our king, Lord Loyce,

and many of our comrades!

Ever since then, you've used the citizens in abominable ways!

We'll never forgive you!

We know well even if we fought you to the death, we couldn't defeat you.

Even so...!

We, the people of the Spade Kingdom, refuse to acknowledge you...

...as our rulers!

Now then, let's follow the plan.

You're saying you were undercover in the Spade Kingdom

and you've been in contact with the Resistance since you left our country?

Yes. I wasn't planning to interfere with you too much,

but after seeing your abilities and actions, I thought it would be better to help you.

I saw your determination during the meeting.

Sorry for pretending I didn't know.

Unbelieveable...

We're counting on you, Mister Nacht!

The strongest Magic Knights of the Clover Kingdom!

And Lord Yuno!

We'll create that diversion for you, even if it costs our loves!

What is this tremble?!

That's...

The legendary ancient demon?!

In the face of overwhelming power,

feelings, determination, and everything else are meaningless.

Since those rats had infiltrated the castle,

I expected the Resistance to make some kind of move during the ritual...

But I never expected they'd just appear bold as brass.

I was planning to destroy the entire city

along with its people using the demon anyway.

You are not citizens of the Spade Kingdom.

Only we, the strong, are true citizens of the Spade Kingdom.

Let's begin the ritual of the Advent of Qliphoth.

This sound... It's stupendous magic!

Are the ones outside all right?

They're fine.

Impressive howling, Resistance members!

I, Mereoleona Vermillion, a royal of the Clover Kingdom, will lend you my strength!

The Ritual of the Advent is a huge magic circle powered by four functions.

One is the Qliphoth Advent site at the center.

The other three are the Dark Triad, who will activate the ritual.

If we defeat all three Triad members and disable the ritual,

the Advent of Qliphoth will stop, and we can prevent the gates from opening.

We could also try destroying the Qliphoth itself with Anti Magic,

but that isn't guaranteed to work.

If we forcefully destroy it and Yami and Vangeance die in the process,

you wouldn't forgive us, would you?

The Triad is positioned at three points around the edge of the magic circle.

So we'll split into three groups, attack them simultaneously, and take them down.

Even with a diversion outside the royal castle,

we may run into Dark Disciples.

Intruders!

When you do, have someone act as a decoy...

...and let as many people as possible go on to strike the Triad.

Stop right there, Dark Triad!
