Black Clover (ブラッククローバー)

Asta, Noelle, and Magna encountered

a mysterious enemy when they arrived at Saussy Village.

They fought hard against the enemy's attack in order to protect the villagers,

but the enemy's magical powers were just too great.

Not only can you negate magic, you can repel it, as well.

But that is not enough to defeat me.

The blades of ice will come one after another.

Now, just try and protect them.

Damn it!

It's going to take everything Asta and I have to protect the villagers.

Not to mention, my powers are reaching their limit.

This turned out to be one hell of a first mission for those two!

This isn't good!

But if I cut and run now, I'm not a real man!

It just so happens I'm a lowly commoner myself! I'll protect you!

I'm... royalty.

I have more magical power than anyone else here.

Step back, Lady Noe!

And yet I'm just holding them back!

Miss Magic Knight...

Save us!

This little girl is asking for help.

I'm going to protect them!

There's no way...

I can run now!

A new spell?

Water Creation Magic: Sea Dragon's Lair!

As their owners mature, new spells are engraved into the grimoires.

Maturity can stem from the wizard's magical powers growing through training,

or improving the creativity of their magical powers.

But sometimes, it can come from a rise or change

in their emotional state, or gaining new resolve.

I'll protect them! I'm royalty,

and a member of the Black Bulls!

Those Who Protect

Grey words can't make anything happen

I know, yeah I know

Wishing to fly freely across the sky

I dreamed it all my life

Step by step I go, though it's a doubtful world

Don't care how much I fall

Instinct is my guide, I never give up

To faraway future, I burst out running

Go beyond even the unseen fears

The vision I had, so I can be myself

Someday I will write the next page

You are my hope

Like that page from someday

I was able to meet you

I call this a miracle

Miss...

W-Well, I guess you're not so tough after all.

Look at that power!

Hey, Lady Noe! What'd I tell you? You can do it if you try!

What? What is this magical power?

The beast had been waiting for his chance to fight back.

For the moment when he could sink his teeth

into his prey's throat.

The three of you

also had enough magical power to join the Magic Knights, did you not?

I don't have any magical powers!

But I'm going to kick your ass!

Lord Heath!

Stupidsta!

He... He did it?

He broke my momentum by making me slip on a patch of ice?

Though your sword can negate magic,

it appears that you're just a normal human after all.

Now it's my turn.

May you sleep... for eternity.

A-Asta!

That spell possesses immense magical power.

But it's only a matter of time.

I should be able to create an entrance big enough for one person.

It should take about 25 seconds.

You lot seem to greatly enjoy wasting my time.

You will pay a heavy price for that.

I don't have much power left, but I have to fight.

Fire and ice. In terms of magical attributes, I have the upper hand.

But he has enough magical power to turn that advantage around.

He's just too strong.

Sorry, Mister Yami.

I don't think I'm going to win against...

I'm not done yet!

Too slow!

Asta!

I'm surprised you're still alive.

You're quite resilient. However...

You won't be able to swing that sword with those wounds.

Not yet!

You're no wild boar.

I'm not done yet!

Stop. Don't make me waste any more time.

That's amazing, Magna!

To think that someone from Rayaka would end up being a Magic Knight!

You're the pride of our village!

Let's lift him up!

Magna!

Magna!

Magna!

I see. That's wonderful. Good, good.

Well done, Magna.

Yeah.

Now you're more than just a delinquent.

Huh?

This is from me.

Old Man...

Well?

It looks good on you. Become the best man you can.

Yeah!

I'm not going to give up until the end.

What good would it do if I gave up?

This spell... It's probably a lot easier to get outside than in, right?

Uh... Yes, I think so.

I'm leaving the villagers to you, Lady Noe!

H-Hey!

You have no chance of winning. Why won't you give up?

If I give up, who's going to protect them?

I've realized something.

It's not just because of our promise.

I'm going to become the Wizard King

so I can protect everyone!

The Wizard King? What a foolish dream.

Unfortunately, you'll be dead in one minute.

That's not happening, you dumbass!

If you want to kill him,

you're going to have to get through me, his senior, first!

Magna!

You know... You're quite the man, Asta.

You fool. You've just hastened your death.

Thirty seconds.

Bring it on!

Here we go, Asta!

Huh?

Time for an initiation!

Take this! My last remaining bit of magic!

Soul Ball!

Flame Magic: Prison Death Scattershot!

So this is your final spell?

How wasteful.

It's time.

It's not a waste!

They drew us in with a decoy, then used our blind spot...

Magic reflection!

I'm okay?

You'd better thank me, you mohawked delinquent.

Yes! Yes! I was able to control my magic!

You never shut up, do you?

These flames... won't go out?

Then I'll just freeze them over!
