Star Magic: Yuno! Chapter 3 - Diamond Kingdom's Fugitive
When Asta and Yuno are training for the Magic Knight Exam, Asta encounters a strange man that might help them in their journey for their road of becoming Wizard King.
It has been a couple of days ever since both Yuno and Asta got their own Grimoires, one with the 4 Leaf and the other a 5 Leaf that no one could see since it was so dirty, and their reactions when they heard that Yuno was kept basically a hostage, almost got his Grimoire and amulet stolen by a former Purple Orca, which then Asta stepped in and saved his butt while also getting his own Grimoire with also a sword that looked like it negated Magic were filled with happiness, shock and absolute horrified faces that they couldn’t lie, it was kind of funny.
During that time, Asta tried his hardest to get the hang on the new sword that he got by repeatedly slashing it and even falling on his feet and then on his butt as he had a conversation with Nash that no matter what, he won’t give up and that he believes anyone could become the Wizard King, even commoners like them, as Yuno was practicing his Wind and Star Magic by repeatedly cutting wood and stone with condense wind and a small dagger made out of stars.
That was really helpful for the church because they have enough wood for an entire year thanks to Yuno and Asta since he tried cutting the wood with his new Sword, which it worked to an extent.
They also heard that Sister Lily and Father Orsi talked to the Grimoire Tower Master about both Yuno and Asta going in the Magic Knight Exam in 6 months time, which was great to hear since they know that in that time, they will be ready.
Currently, both Asta and Yuno were at a field next to a forest that Asta likes to train in. Asta was trying his hardest to work on his handiwork with his Demon-Slayer Sword while Yuno was trying something new.
He went to his knees, placed both of his hands on the ground and tried going down like he saw Asta do it at least 100 times.
Key word: tried.
Asta turned to the source of those breaths that sounded like someone was running a marathon as he saw Yuno with his hands shaking like crazy, several sweats going down his forehead and gritted teeth, as he saw him fall to the ground.
“Yuno…” the boy turned to his rival, “What are you doing?”
“Well… I want to try something different for my training that isn’t just training my magic, so I wanted to train my body as well like you, but… you have seen my result.” said Yuno as he panted.
Asta chuckled, “Wait, you tried something and you failed that I could do it very easily?” he said as he placed his sword on the ground.
“Yeah, so what?”
“HA!” Asta clapped his hands together, “It looks like the Great Yuno failed to do one simple task while I could!” he boasted very loudly, “And like that, it is proof that I can become the Wizard King and you can’t!” he laughed.
“Oh yeah, if you are going to become the Wizard King then how about use some magic?” Yuno smirked as he heard Asta stop laughing as he looked at him.
“Oh fuck you, Yuno.” he said with a very offended face.
Yuno then stood up, “But still… Can you help me on how to do one? It looked easier than it actually is.” he asked as Asta sighed.
“Sure man, I will help you.” he said as Yuno got on all fours, “Okay, that is a good start, you are so far doing good, but you have to straighten your arms and legs to do that,” he said as Yuno’s arms and legs were correctly positioned.
“Great! Now, lower your body until your chest is close to the floor.” he said as Yuno went slow as he went to the ground, “Alright, alright, now just take a small pause and then return your body back to where it previously was.” he said as Yuno brought back to his original placement. “Good job! Now do that until you can no longer pull yourself up!”
After a couple of minutes of Asta’s loud cheering for his rival, Yuno did up to 35 push ups before falling to the ground, breathing heavily as sweat was all over the young boy.
“Great job! With more practice over time, you will get to 100 push ups in no time flat!” he yelled out as Yuno smiled at what he heard, “Now to get some sit ups done!” Yuno’s eyes widened from what he heard from his rival.
After a few minutes of loud shouting from Asta, Yuno fell to the ground as he took several breaths, “30 sit ups for your first time? Now that is impressive! I remember when I could barely do 20 when I first started, granted I was 5 at the time, but still!”
“Alright, so-”
“Now time to do some squats!” Asta pulled Yuno by his skin and brought to him on his legs as Asta began teaching him how to do some squats, which didn’t take as much energy as the others, but it still drained him to no end.
He dropped to his stomach, “This is so much harder than it works.” mumbled Yuno.
“Well, duh! Doing 40 squats after 35 push ups and 30 sit ups is no joke! But you still have to stretch!” Asta yelled as Yuno groaned.
“Why? I am so tired to no end.” he asked with almost no energy.
“So that you don’t get any muscle cramps! Trust me, you don’t want to have that.” Asta said as his foster brother looked at him.
“How do you know all of this?” asked Yuno as Asta smiled.
“Well, during the spring after we made our promise, I wanted to get stronger without relying on my magic, so I asked Sister Lily to get me a book so I could get stronger.” explained Asta as he remembered it containing everything about working out.
“I have two questions.”
“Sure, what is it?” Asta looked at his rival.
“You can read?” he asked with a small smirk.
“Oh screw you.” Asta rolled his eyes.
“Heh, but secondly, you only asked for a book from Sister Lily?” asked Yuno as he looked at his brother, “And you didn’t ask for anything else?”
Asta began sweating as he remembered that memory very clearly, “Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, yeah, yeah! Of course not! I didn’t ask Sister Lily anything else, why do you ask?”
“Then why are you sweating?”
“Uhhhhhh, it is too hot?”
“It is March, Asta.”
“Uhhhhhhhhh, swinging my sword?”
“You haven’t swung it for half an hour, you looked fine.”
“Oh, uh, well, it is, uhm… SCREW IT!” Asta stood up as he took his sword with him into the forest, “I am going to train without you making fun of me!” he yelled as Yuno chuckled at his brother’s reaction.
It was really funny making fun of Asta.
After a few minutes he decided to stretch which took him about a couple of minutes of stretching, he then decided to do something about his Wind Magic that he thought would be really useful in the future since he doesn’t think that his Star Magic could do the same thing as his other magic: Fly.
He knows full well that most, if not all Wind Mages have the ability to fly thanks to their Magic Attribute so he decided that it would be a good idea to learn it for the Magic Knight Selection Exam.
He stood still for a couple of seconds as he then tried using the wind from his mana reserve as he began floating, but he frowned when he saw he was only a few inches of the ground which wasn’t a good thing, but it was a start.
Soon, he will learn how to be an expert at flying on his own and without the aid of a broom. As he will then become a great user of both of his Magi-
He then heard a loud scream from a man in the forest and noises from a boar. He didn’t know who it was as if it was Asta, Yuno would know that would be a loud pitch scream.
He stopped using his magic as he fell on his face as he then began running towards the place where he heard that noise from.
It took him a couple of minutes of finding out where the source of that scream was, but when he did get there, he saw Asta sitting on a rock next to a man eating some pop potatoes that he wasn’t quite familiar with.
It was a man that had red hair, emerald green eyes, a rather unshaven face with a really good build, but what was the most prominent thing about the man was that… he was naked.
Yuno’s eyes shot up, not wanting anything happening to his foster brother and before Asta could react, Yuno opened his Grimoire, flipped a couple of pages as one green star appeared, “Star Magic: Pinpoint Bla-”
“WOAH! STOP YUNO! THIS MAN IS INNOCENT!” yelled Asta as he got next to his rival, not wanting him to kill someone.
“Are you sure?! That man is naked in front of a minor! What other things do you think he might want to do?!” yelled Yuno at his rival.
“Woah! Woah! Kid, I may be a runaway, but I will never stoop that low!” yelled the man as he then mumbled, “Especially since I am taken already.”
“Who on Earth would date a homeless man?” asked Yuno as the man looked at him with an offended look.
“Hey, I am not a homeless man!”
“Okay, which one do you want to be known as to me? A pedophile or a homeless man?”
“... I will take the homeless man.” the man said in a defeated tone.
“That’s what I thought.” said Yuno as he closed his Grimoire and turned to Asta, “How is he innocent Asta?”
“Well, the reason why he is naked was because he was getting some fish as then his clothes were blown off, and the scream you most likely heard was him being chased by a boar.” he said as the man nodded.
“That’s right, sorry for the confusion kid, I promise it won’t happen again. By the way, the name is Fanzell Kruger, but you can call me Zell,” Fanzell said as he took another bite of his pop potato, “Hey, Asta, do you have anything to drink with? My mouth is really dry.”
“Sure, old man!”
“I am not that old, I am only 28.”
“Sorry, old man, but here!” said Asta as he took the pouch that was around his hips and gave it to him as Yuno knew what that was.
“Wait, don’t drink that!” yelled Yuno in alarm.
“Oh come on, kid, it is rude to refuse a drink, you know? Thanks, Asta.” Fanzell said with a smile on his face as he took one sip of that as he then immediately spat it out, “GHAW! What the hell is this?!”
“Moguro Leaf Juice! It increases your magic power!” Asta yelled as he punched his chest.
“Moguro? You do know that it causes you diarrhea if you drink it too many times, right?” Asta’s eyes stopped as he gulped.
“So that is why my stomach is rumbling.”
“Idiot.” Yuno shook his head.
After a couple of minutes, Yuno, Asta and Fanzell sat on the rocks, roasting some pop potatoes, with Yuno using his hand just so he doesn’t see Fanzell’s… uhm, junk, as they learned the way he knew about them was that he saw them meet with Revchi.
“Wait, you saw that man chain me up and the two other nobles and nearly kill Asta, but you didn’t help us? Why?” asked Yuno as he was kind of mad that he didn’t help them out.
“Yuno, I was naked.” Fanzell said simply, “If I did save you, first off, it was a mostly populated area, and secondly, what would you think if a naked man saved you while you guys were in chains? Sure, I could’ve used my magic, but I didn’t have my Grimoire at the time, so I am sorry I didn’t help you.” he said with a solemn tone as Asta and Yuno were quiet.
“Yeah that makes sense.”
“Hey, don’t worry about that old man! If you did save us, I couldn’t have gotten this sweet new sword!” Asta yelled as they watched him with his new sword that he tried to swing it, but failed immensely.
Fanzell saw how inexperienced Asta was with a sword which could mean that it wouldn’t be a good thing if he wanted to be a Magic Knight which Asta talked about, not to mention he looked at Yuno who he was interested as well as the fact that he had 2 Magic Attributes, reminded him of someone.
“That’s good to hear at least, but if I am being serious for a sec,” Fanzell took a bite of the pop potato, “You two actually interest me a lot.” the two rivals looked at Fanzell, “I mean, 2 Magic Attributes and a sword that negates magic? That really could spell out two really great mages.”
“Well of course it is, we do plan on becoming the Wizard King,” said Yuno with a shrug, “which I will eventually become.”
“Ha, in your dreams Yuno! You know damn well that I am going to become one!” yelled Asta with a grin.
Fanzell chuckled at the two as he knew that the two, while seemingly looking like they don’t care for each other, wasn’t the case at all as they both had immense respect for each other, and the fact that they want to become the Wizard King one day? Someone with immense power and respect? That was truly to be admired by.
“Well, that is good to hear from you two because chase your dreams.” he said as Asta looked at him.
“Wait, you are not going to laugh?” asked the boy with no magic.
“No, why would I?” asked Fanzell.
“Well…” Asta scratched the back of his head, “I am a boy with no magic.” Fanzell’s eyes slightly widened, but not for that reason. It reminded him of the boy that had no Magic Attribute, but still had a strong amount of magic.
“Ladros.” he thought with a solemn tone as he remembered that bastard known as Morris who practically ruined him into someone that he never was.
“And that we are commoners,” said Yuno.
“Oh come now, I won’t make fun of your dreams for that. I know that you two will become great Magic Knights,” he said as that made the two smile from the words of the man with no clothes.
“But, I do notice something about you two. You are a Wind Mage, right?” he asked Yuno as the black haired boy nodded, “And you are a sword user too, right?”
Asta thought about it as he looked at the sword with Anti Magic.
“I guess, I am now, which I don’t mind at all.” he said as Fanzell smiled.
He could work with that and maybe with the new Star Magic, as he was somewhat of both an expert at. “Interesting, I think I can give you a couple of pointers on both of those things, but first make a promise to me.”
They looked at him with a serious look on his face, “Promise that no matter what, you do not use these powers for evil, you got that? I will understand if you are in a fight which is a good thing, but I won’t teach you if you do that voluntarily that is outside of a fight.”
Yuno and Asta looked at each other and then back to Fanzell, “Are you crazy?! We will never harm someone for their own personal gain! Even Yuno, who may seem like a jerk, would never harm the innocent!”
Yuno rolled his eyes, “What he said was right. We want to become the Wizard King not for our selfish gain, but so we could protect everyone we care about.”
They both looked at each other and then back at Fanzell, “What we are trying to say is that we are never going to harm people for our selfish gain!”
Fanzell smiled at the two, “Well then, I guess I can trust both of you kids on that part. You see, I am a Wind Mage like you Yuno, but I am something of a swordsman of myself.” he said as Asta had stars in his eyes as Yuno looked at him with a confused look.
“Wow, really?! That is so cool!” yelled Asta.
“Yeah, but where is your sword?” asked Yuno as Fanzell chuckled at that, “Did you lose it?”
“Oh that? Well, I don’t really have a sword on me at the moment.” he said with a smile as their eyes widened.
“Wait, what?!” both of them yelled.
“But how are you going to give us tips on both of them?” asked Yuno.
“You see that stick next to you?” asked Fanzell as Asta looked over to see a stick as he nodded, “Give it to me so I could show you something.” he said as Asta gave it to him as Fanzell took it as he began concentrating on the stick, with Yuno using his hand to cover up Fanzell’s junk.
He said, “Wind Creation Magic: Emperor Of Slashing Winds!” he yelled as their eyes widened as they watched something impressive happen. The wind around Fanzell came out the stick he was holding into a concentrated weapon that was like Asta’s sword, as the colours on the sword was white with a couple of air going around the newly formed weapon with around the stick was a green tint.
They all looked at him with completely shocked expressions, “Pretty cool, right? This little thing is my personal favourite weapon. The name is a bit long, so I sometimes call it Slashy.” he said with a smirk as he remembered his fiance calling that weapon.
“That… is the coolest thing I have ever seen!” yelled Asta with stars in his eyes as Yuno looked at the weapon.
“How impressive. Do you think that I could do it with my Star and Wind Magic?” asked Yuno as Fanzell scratched the back of his head.
“The Wind part is a sure, but the Star one is a bit tricky,” he said as Yuno nodded, “Now then, I think it is finally time for me to get going.” he said as Slashy was turned off as he began walking, thankfully the other way, “You boys mind going with me to train?”
Both Yuno and Asta looked at each other as it felt like they had a small conversation, but they nodded as they began to walk with Fanzell so they could get a better grasp at their abilities.
INTRO!
(A/N: Play Haruka Mirai.)
We see several different Grimoires with different colours and looks flying around the room, all with their own attributes as it ended with two different Grimoires, one with a 4 leaf and the other with a 5 leaf, as then Yuno and Asta were then shown as they began walking in the same path, with determined looks on their faces as then Yuno’s Grimoire opened to reveal a page with the words “Star Magic: Yuno!”
Gray words can’t make anything happen
We then see Asta and Yuno facing backwards as they both raised their heads as their backgrounds were that of the 4 Leaf Grimoire of the Wind and Star for Yuno, with the 5 Leaf for Asta.
I know, yeah I know
As we see images of Asta and Yuno, both with different expressions as for Asta was him with Star eyes, while Yuno was calm and collected.
Wishing to fly freely across the sky
Then we Asta doing sit ups as we see Yuno flying away as Asta began running towards him.
I dreamed it all my life
As the background changed with Yuno and Asta both dodging at the same time Revchi’s chain.
Step by step I go, though it’s a doubtful world
We then see Yuno and Asta both pulling out their Grimoires, as Asta pulled out a massive blunt sword as Yuno created 3 stars around him.
Don’t care how much I fall!
Both of them attacked the former Purple Orca as Fanzell Krueger looked over with an interested look.
Instinct is my guide, I never give up!
As after they are done with him, they both turn to Sekke Bronzazza and Salim Hapshass as they were both defeated in quick succession.
To faraway future, I burst out running
We then see Asta and Yuno, both in different outfits, as one is a Black Bull and the other a Golden Dawn as then above them appeared their members in rapid succession.
Go beyond even the unseen fears
On Asta’s side appeared Yami Sukehiro, Magna Swing, Luck Voltia, Vanessa Enoteca, Finral Roulacase, Charmy Pappitson, Grey, Gauche Adlai, Gordon Agrippa, Henry Legolant, Noelle Silva and Midori Folium while on Yuno’s side appeared William Vangeance, Langris Vaude, Alecdora Sandler, Klaus Lunette, Mimosa Vermillion, David Swallow, Letoile Becquerel, Siren Tium and Hamon Caseus.
The vision I had, so I can be myself
Then we see Yuno at the air as the wind went around him and then sighed.
Someday I will write the next page
As then Klaus and Mimosa were all around him with smiles on their faces as then they faced off with a bounty hunter in Hage with an evil smile on his face.
You are my hope
The three of them all looked at each other as they then readied their Grimoires for the fight.
Like that page from someday
The bounty hunter readied himself with an orange light energy barrier as he stopped Klaus’ Spears, Yuno’s Wind and Mimosa’s Plant Canon.
I was able to meet you
As soon as the man turned around Klaus and Yuno used a steel cannon as it shot a powerful beam of light directly towards him as it launched him forward.
I call this a miracle
It created a powerful explosion as then we see Yuno and Asta fist bumping each other with smiles on their faces as the background ended with Asta looking at the camera with a happy smile as Yuno looked at the camera on his backside with a scowl on his face.
STAR MAGIC: YUNO!
(A/N: End Theme.)
While the three were currently walking in the forest to the place where Fanzell lived, he decided to talk to his most likely new students, “Hey, you two, I gotta say this, you two remind me of two of my students.” Both of the Hage orphans looked at Fanzell with an interested look.
“Really?” asked Yuno.
“Yeah, both of you remind me of two of my students that changed. Like you Asta, I remember a small little kid by the name of Ladros,” he said as Asta saw the small, nostalgic smile on his face.
“He was a nice, outgoing lad that wanted to make the world a better place, but he unfortunately had one massive flaw,” he said as they looked at him, “He had no Magic Attribute.” their eyes widened.
“He had no Magic Attribute?” Asta asked as Fanzell nodded, “How… is that even possible?”
Fanzell shrugged, “I don’t know, I am no doctor, but I am pretty sure it was because of some genetic mutation like yours that caused him to not have it, despite him having magic.” Asta looked at him with a shocked expression, “He was bullied to no end by the fellow kids in his area. Not by all of them like-”
Fanzell took a deep breath as they continued walking, “Mars and Fana. They weren’t my only students of mine, but those were the only ones that treated him with a drop of respect.” he said as they pitied the poor guy for not having any of it, but for Yuno… it was strange.
Why did the name of Fana remind him of something?
“Thankfully, he wasn’t bullied no longer once he got into surgery… and never was the same after that.” he said as he gripped his hand into a ball, “Doing that surgery, he managed to get his own Magic Attribute by that coldblooded monster that was Morris. It is now called Absorption Magic.” he said as their eyes widened.
One person could surgically change their Magic Attribute?! How was that even possible?
Fanzell didn’t want to say anything about him changing after the fact because he doesn’t want to discourage him in the slightest way. “After that, he became one powerful mage that was a force to be reckoned with.” he said as Asta looked down.
So they could change the Magic Attribute, but not the amount someone has? That is a bit discouraging, but still he was glad that Ladros was made into a stronger person. And still, even if he doesn’t have his magic, his magic is still never giving up.
“Now, for you Yuno, I gotta say, the person you remind me of is Mars.” Fanzell smiled, “The reason is that like you he has 2 Magic Attributes, thanks to a surgery by that piece of shit known as Morris,” he said with venom in his voice as he knew exactly how he did it, “Those two are Crystal and Fire Magic.”
He said with the same nostalgic smile as he then turned to Yuno as, “So tell me, how do you have 2 of them as well? Did you go under surgery as well? Or is it all natural?”
“Well, I am not exactly sure, but I think it is all natural? I have simply been born with it, even with these large ears.” said Yuno as Fanzell nodded.
“All natural, eh? Well, I guess that makes sense. Sure, it isn’t normal to have 2 of them, but to have none is also the same exact possibility as well, so I won’t judge.” he said as they made it.
It only took the three about 5 minutes to get to the place that Fanzell was staying and despite him looking like a homeless person, they had to admit, it was actually a pretty decent place, with what looked like a small bedroom, kitchen and a bathroom with the front porch being a rather decent place to sleep in.
They also saw the clothes that Fanzell placed as he went to them so Yuno could finally stop using his hand to not look where the middle of his pants was.
Fanzell’s outfit consisted of a green jacket, a white shirt that was buttoned up, two brown belts, blue pants and brown boots.
“Ahh there we go, almost felt naked without my outfit.” he said with a grin.
“Even though you already were.” Asta jabbed his brother with his elbow.
Fanzell took a sharp breath as he looked at his new current students, “Alright! Since I think it is a good place for both of y’all to train. But trust me, it isn’t going to be easy, so tell me, are you two ready for this?”
“If I plan on becoming the Wizard King, then this will be a walk in the park.” Yuno smirked.
“I am always ready for stuff like this! LET’S GO, OLD MAN!” Asta yelled with enthusiasm.
“Now, now Asta, first, don’t call me old man, I am only 28, secondly, I meant for the training in general not right now. It is getting late,” Fanzell pointed at the Sun as they all looked at the Sun and saw it was almost going down, “Both of you should get some rest.”
“Ahh man, but I was just getting pumped up.” moaned Asta as he dropped his shoulders.
“Be happy, you idiot, at least we are getting this training for free so you don’t have the right to complain.” said Yuno as Asta grew a tickmark.
“WHO ARE YOU CALLING AN IDIOT, YOU HANDSOME JERK?!” yelled Asta as he got to Yuno’s face, well, at least half a meter to his face.
“I am calling an idiot to a shortie that doesn’t even reach my shoulders.”
“OH THAT IS IT! YOU AND ME RIGHT HERE AND NOW!” yelled Asta as he got his Grimoire ready as he took out his Demon-Slayer Sword as Yuno got a few feet away from him as he pulled out his Grimoire as he flipped to a few pages. Fanzell sweatdropped.
Asta charged at Yuno as he pulled back his Slayer Sword and then slashed him downwards… is what I would’ve said if Asta didn’t lose his balance and nearly fell on his butt.
“I didn’t even do nothing,” said Yuno towards Fanzell as the man shrugged his shoulders. He then turned to Asta, “You need this training more than me.”
“Oh screw you!” he said as Fanzell snickered at the two acting like children, which they were, but still it was pretty cute.
Yuno sighed, “Welp, I have to inform Father about this so he doesn’t send the entire village to look for us…again.” he said as Fanzell saw Yuno trying to lift himself up with his Magic, but he could only float at best.
“Hey, you are trying to fly, right?” asked Fanzell as Yuno turned to him with a nod.
“Yeah, but I am using my own magic to only float, but that is as much as I can do at the moment.” Yuno said as Fanzell nodded.
“Ah, I get it. Not a bad strategy, but I recommend using the Wind around you so you could save your magic for different spells, not to mention it is faster than using your Magic.” said Fanzell as Yuno looked at him and nodded.
He did as Fanzell told him as then he began to float, but this time he used the wind around him so he could faster and to his shock, it was actually easier than using his own mana. As he easily went above Fanzell’s house as Asta looked at him with an amazed look while Fanzell looked at him with a proud look.
Yuno then went to Hage Church with a smile on his face. Maybe this old homeless man might help them get better than before.
The next few days were going around smoothly in their opinion as the routine was: Wake up, do push ups, sit ups and squats (Which Asta did it with ease as Yuno struggled a lot), stretch, look for food like pop potatoes and maybe even a boar, cook it and train.
Not to mention they had to cut an immense amount of wood so that it could be warm.
Fanzell wanted Asta to train with his swordsmanship while with Yuno he wanted to show him how first to create a sword with his Wind, and then maybe, just maybe, he could get him to work with his Star.
It was actually getting difficult for Yuno to make a sword for his Star Magic since it wasn’t an elemental attribute like Water or Ground, rather it was something above them that they can’t reach, and for the current moment, he could only create 2 stars at the moment, which was difficult to make sword out of, but not an axe which he would rightfully call, Taurus.
Asta was swinging his sword as much as possible, but no matter how much he tried, it could never seem to work in his favour, but Fanzell managed to see the problem: He was focusing the strength in his knees.
“Hey, Asta, I think I have found out the problem to your sword fighting,” Asta turned to Fanzell as he sat on the poarch while eating an apple.
“Yeah, what is it, old man Zell?”
“I am 28, but never mind that, I think it is because you can’t seem to manage to have a second blow once you swung your sword, right?” Asta nodded as Fanzell took another bite, “It throws off your balance, and I think I know how to do it.”
“I am listening!” yelled Asta with maximum focus as Yuno tried his hardest to make a wind sword.
“Well, here is what you need to do for more attacks. You point your toes to the direction that you are swinging at,” Asta nodded as he readied his sword and his toes in the exact position he will swing, “Then you take a half step with your right foot to shift your weight. Go on, try it.” He said Asta gripped his sword.
Asta took half step with his right foot and even while struggling to do so, he was determined to get this done, so he managed to get his foot down and managed a full swing, as he then turned around, took a half step and managed to do one more swing in his opposite direction.
Fanzell smiled as Asta turned to him with stars in his eyes, “I DID IT! I DID IT! I DID IT!” he yelled as Fanzell smiled once more.
“You did, and it was actually pretty well done for a novice like you, you are a natural.” he said as he turned his eyes towards Yuno, “Not to mention your defense is as good as your offense so keep doing that until you guys are ready for actual sword fighting with each other.”
“Right!” Asta yelled as began to do the same instructions that Fanzell gave to him.
The red haired man walked towards Yuno, “Hey, so how is the Wind Weapon going along?”
“Far from good I will tell you that,” said Yuno as Fanzell nodded.
“Alright, are you using your magic again?” he asked as Yuno nodded towards the fellow Wind Mage.
“Yes, I am.” he said as Fanzell nodded.
“Okay, that is not bad, great even for a start, but remember what I told you about flying?” he asked as Yuno narrowed his eyes.
“Use the wind around me so I could save up my mana for my spells.” he said simply as Fanzell nodded.
“Correct, and that is similar with creating a weapon, but this time, try to combine both the wind around you and the Wind Magic that you have, for it be fully usable.” he said as Yuno nodded as he stood a couple of feet next to Yuno.
Yuno closed his eyes, using from the palm of his hand the Wind Magic that he has with the surrounding wind around him as he tried his hardest.
He closed his eyes as he wanted to feel everything.
Every breeze.
Every breath.
Every small particle of the wind that could be made.
He took a deep breath as he controlled the surrounding wind around him with the Wind Magic coming out of his hands as he could feel the sword forming around his hands, the sword coming around to him.
He opened his eyes as he could see words being written in his Grimoire in a page as he saw his new sword. The sword wasn’t as big as the Demon-Slayer Sword or Slashy, but it was still pretty big as the colours of the blade was white as it was like a broadsword, as the handle were like that of diamonds with edgy grip.
He grinned, he created his very own sword.
Fanzell whistled, “Not bad, Yuno, you created your own sword, from the looks of it, it might be a regular sword, but hey it didn’t matter as long as you know how to use it. By the way, how are you going to call it?” he asked as Yuno turned to him with a small smirk.
“I will call this spell Wind Creation Magic: Wind Blade.” he said as Fanzell nodded.
“Ah not bad, I will call it Windy for short.” he said as he saw how well Yuno’s grip on his new sword is, “So how is it going? Is it too light or too heavy?” he asked as Yuno shrugged.
“It is neither, it is in the middle I like to think.” he said as he took a breath.
“Ah okay, then it is the perfect weight for you to start using it.” said Fanzell as Yuno nodded as he readied his Wind Blade to one direction.
“Remember what I told Asta: Keep your toes at the direction you are swinging at,” Fanzell saw Yuno adjusting his toes to the direction he was going to swing, “Then take a half step with your right foot and then continue to swing.” he said as Yuno took a step and performed a successful swing, as he then turned to his left, with his legs being at the perfect direction and slashed it.
“Wow. You too learn quickly.” he said with impressed eyes.
“Thanks, I am planning to become the Wizard King-”
“LIKE HELL YOU WILL! I AM GOING TO BECOME THE WIZARD KING!”
Yuno ignored Asta, “so I need every help that I could get.” Fanzell nodded.
Fanzell then placed his hand on his chin, “Y’know, I used to teach over a 100 students where I lived,” they turned to Fanzell, “But I have to admit, you two are possibly in my top 5 best students.”
“Wait, Top 5!?” asked Asta.
“Actually maybe even the Top 3, but I am afraid that none of you are as strong as my Number 1, even though he doesn’t even use a sword. But still, the fact that you two have grown to be in my top 3 in a short time is quite impressive.” he said as Yuno and Asta smirked, but then they had to ask one important question.
“Who is number 2 and 3?” both of them asked as Fanzell began to sweat.
“Uhhhhhhhhhh, you know, it is actually a very close call between you two that I simply couldn’t choose-”
“It is me, I know it,” Asta turned to Yuno with a shit eating grin, “He just wants to spare your feelings.”
“More like yours, but whatever makes you feel happy.” Yuno said as Asta grew a tick mark.
“OOHHHH?! What are you saying?! That you think that you are a better student than I am?!”
“I don’t think it, I know it.”
“OH COME HERE YOU ASSHOLE!”
“I thought you never asked.” Yuno pointed his Wind Blade towards Asta as he pointed his Demon-Slayer Sword at him, as the two brothers clashed with each other.
Fanzell sweatdropped, “You know, I should stop this, but this is a good way to learn how to sword fight, so I will just let them tire each other out.” he thought to himself as he walked to the forest for some pop potatoes.
After a few days have gone by, with Yuno and Asta doing their now regular schedule of push ups, sit ups and squats as they also went on with their new swords, clashing at each other every chance they get with Fanzell giving them pointers that they shouldn’t take a break after every swing, but to keep attacking, which they did.
After a while, Fanzell decided to try one more time to teach them about sword fighting so he decided to go against the two in a 2 v 1 match. Both Yuno and Asta looked at each other, knowing full well that just because they have the number advantage that they shouldn’t get cocky, but still… they had to at least get a grasp at how to fight a powerful opponent.
So Yuno got his Wind Blade and Asta got his Demon-Slayer Sword as Fanzell got his Slashy. The three’s staredown was a long one as then both Asta and Yuno charged at Fanzell…
… that was a one sided ass whooping they received.
“Honestly? I thought this would go quicker.” said Fanzell as he walked over to the down Hage orphans with impressed looks, “Not bad you two, you guys lasted longer than I expected.”
Both Asta and Yuno grinned, but not before still laying on the ground, tired from the fight they got into.
After a few minutes of resting, they then saw a new person that was jumping on trees, and then landed on the ground. Both of them got their Grimoires ready, but they saw that she kneeled next to Fanzell.
“Old man, I have found some intel about your fiance. I apologize if it took longer than expected.” the person said.
“Oh don’t worry about that, I am just glad that I got some information about Domina.” said Fanzell with a smile on his face.
“Hey, old man Zell, who is this person?” asked Asta.
“Oh her? She is one of my students, Mariella, she has been looking everywhere to get some intel on where my fiance is,” he said as the person, now known as Mariella revealed herself.
She was a young lady, most likely the same age as Yuno and Asta, with voluptuous, fair-skinned woman as she had black hair in a bob cut style with pink eyes, wearing a beige outfit, with black boots, purple short shorts and a black cape.
Mariella stood up, “That’s right, but I have something to say to you,” she pointed at Asta.
“Huh, me?”
“That’s right. How dare you address this old man by just calling him old man without proper respect?” Mariella asked Asta as he looked at her with slight shock as Fanzell sighed.
“I told you guys, I am only 28.”
“What do you mean by that? I respect old man Zell, he is the one that is currently helping us get better with sword fighting!” he yelled at her.
“Well if you do respect him, you shouldn't go around calling him old man. He is not like the other old men, so you should respect him by not calling him that!”
As then an argument appeared between the two about respecting Fanzell by calling him old man, the old man sighed as Yuno approached him.
“This is going horrible for my self-esteem.” he then turned to see Yuno, “Oh hey, Yuno, wassup?”
“Oh nothing, I am just confused about something.” he said.
“Shoot, tell me.” he said as Yuno looked at him.
“If you are so tough, why did you send one of your students to look for your fiance instead of doing it yourself?” Yuno asked as Fanzell smiled at him.
“Oh about that, I am kind of keeping a low profile.” Yuno raised an eyebrow to that, “I will probably talk about it, but I am just going to tell you: I am not just an ordinary Wind Mage.” he said as Yuno was silent about this as they looked over to see Asta and Mariella still having an argument about calling him old man, “Hey, Mariella, so what have you learned about Domina?” he said as Mariella stopped as she looked at her hand.
“Well… this isn’t something that is fully true, but only a possibility, so even I don’t know if this is true.” she said.
“Well that is okay, you can tell me, you know I can take it.” he said as Mariella slowly nodded, as they could tell that she was nervous about this.
“Okay, so with all of the information I have about her in this Kingdom,” for some weird reason the way she said it bugged Yuno and Asta, “I have the tragic news that Dominate unfortunately passed away.”
The noise was silent. The entire area was silent once they heard that as their eyes widened. Yuno and Asta didn’t know that their teacher’s fiance died and when they saw Fanzell’s expression, they saw the man’s true expressions.
The face was a mix of pain, sadness, anger and disappointment. Pain for when he learned that the person he loved the most, the person he fell in love with, was dead. Sadness for the death of another beloved person dying as this time it was worse since he doesn’t even know where she is.
Anger because he was so tired of people dying that was close to him and disappointed. Not anyone else, but to himself because he couldn’t protect her.
The man dropped his head down as he stared at it with a numb expression.
“But, I have found her wand,” Fanzell’s head shot back up as she held a blue wand that was the same wand that she uses for her to use magic. Mariella then walked up to her teacher and gave it to him.
“Thanks.” he said as he looked at the wand as he remembered all of the memories of her, when they first met, when they confessed their feelings for each other, when they went on their dates, when he proposed and that day when they escaped.
He then thought to himself, why doesn’t he just confess on something he has been holding it in for years now, to at least tell someone about his story and where he actually comes from.
He has nothing left to lose, so why shouldn’t he do this.
“Hey, Asta, Yuno. I want to tell you something.” he began as they looked at Fanzell who had a serious look on his face, “I want to tell all of you where I came from, everything okay? Just don’t tell anyone about this.” he said as the foster brothers looked at each other and nodded.
“We won’t tell a soul!”
“You have our words.” the two said in unison.
He smiled, “Thanks. Well, before that, I want to ask you guys something. How many Kingdoms are there on this continent?” he asked them a pretty weird question as they were confused by it, but still had to answer this question.
“There is the Clover Kingdom, Spade Kingdom…” began Yuno as Asta continued.
“And then the Heart Kingdom and Diamond Kingdom! But why are you asking us that question?” the boy with no magic asked.
“Well, it is because I am not from the Clover Kingdom,” they gasped as Fanzell took out his Grimoire, which had a brown cover, but instead of a 3 Leaf on it, it was instead a Diamond, “I am from the Diamond Kingdom.”
Again, there was silence in the area as they looked at him with shocked expressions. As they couldn’t believe to hear that the person that was training them, both with his sword fighting and Wind Magic, was not from here, but from the Diamond Kingdom.
“WHAT?!” Asta yelled in complete shock as Mariella stood there quietly.
“The Diamond Kingdom?! But I thought the borders were large and tough enough for noone to get out of there!” yelled Yuno.
Fanzell smiled, “That is true, but…” he sighed, “I will explain everything.”
Fanzell Kruger didn't exactly live a peaceful life, even when he was a kid. He was a normal kid living at the Diamond Kingdom, and it wasn’t exactly the best place to live, especially if you lived in a village that is far from the capital.
The crops weren’t growable on the soil or they simply didn’t have enough, but when they did, they were barely edible or nutritious, the water was mostly drinkable, but again, there was a chance that people might get sick from eating it and the landscape was hardly what most people would call liveable and viable.
Not to mention, his parents were hardly home as they were commanders of the military for the Diamond Kingdom, leading the way for the future generations of Mages in the Diamond Kingdom.
Not that Fanzell minded since when they were home, he didn’t get to know them as they were mostly asleep when they got there, but it is not like he minded.
He was saddened when he heard the tragic news of his parent’s dying in a conflict against the Clover Kingdom by a couple of mages by the time he turned 16 years old and he managed to mostly master his Wind Magic, but it isn’t like he was massively angry at the Clover Kingdom.
He knew they were doing it to save their Kingdom and people so he couldn’t be mad at them, not at all.
During the time he was starting to get used to his skills as a Wind Mage and sword fighter as he was in the military of the Diamond Kingdom, and his mission was to infiltrate the The Forest Of Witches, which was in between of the Clover and Diamond Kingdom to get some intel about the forest and the Witch Queen, but he instead met the love of his life, Dominate Code.
She immediately stook out to him with her stunning gem like purple eyes, flowing orange hair that he loved to run through, her beauty and her as a woman as she was funny, smart, kind and a friendly person, with the slight problem of her greed, but that wasn’t his problem, not one bit.
And the feelings weren’t one sided at all, as he immediately stook out to him, not only because he was the first man she ever saw, but he was also the first man she ever fell in love with as she loved his carefree attitude and the way he was to other people. Which was why after the mission was over, she left the forest to go and live with Fanzell.
Both Dominate and Fanzell were known in the Diamond Kingdom shortly after. She was known for her skill with magic tools as she was second to none in that category as she was quickly able to make anything in a short period of time and with efficiency and Fanzell was known for being the Commander of the Diamond Kingdom’s army and even trained the future generations of the mages for the Diamond Kingdom.
That is where he met Ladros, Mars and Fana. The boy with no Magic Attribute, the boy with Crystal Magic and the girl with Fire Magic.
He looked over the three as if they were his own children as he hated that they couldn’t leave the area at all to see the outside world, but he would be happy for them to finally see the light of day once they were worthy to be in the front lines.
Fanzell was a mage that was really close to become one of the 8 Shining Generals, the highest rank anyone could get in the military front lines in the Diamond Kingdom, which was an actual pretty decent thing as you get well paid, a lot of respect and you could actually change the Diamond Kingdom, which was great!
But what really broke the camel’s back, was something that he heard from Morris, an experiment that he was doing involving Mage Stones, which he had no clue about. So he decided to look about the experiments and then he saw what really pushed him away from the Diamond Kingdom.
He saw Mars in a room filled with people dead on the floor, blood spewing everywhere as he was holding a Fana in his arms, tears in his eyes and he kept saying, “I am sorry, please, forgive me.” over and over again as she was dead with a smile on his face.
That was something that broke the camel’s back. Seeing his students and actual children, being killed for an experiment for their own amusement as they were killed just to pick out the strongest from the weak.
He was filled with ang-
No.
He was filled with rage. Pure anger filling, fully violent rage against the person known as Morris.
When he told the news to his now fiance, they knew it was best to leave the country for good, as they were planning on creating a way to get out of there and get to a country that was at the very least better than the Diamond Kingdom.
They were hunted down by the military, and even some Shining Generals were after the two, but they wouldn’t stop until they escaped the Kingdom for good.
As when they got to the boarder, they managed to get to there with at least 7 different Commanders after them as they knew that taking all 7 of them was practically a death wish by now, they knew it would be the best possible option to take 4 and 3 of them while trying to flee would be the best possible option for the both of them.
They did do that, but at the cost that they practically were in separate parts of the country as no matter how hard they looked, they were never in the same area, which was the reason why they haven’t been able to meet in a long time.
Fanzell finished with telling his story as Mariella was silent as she knew everything about him while Asta and Yuno were looking at him in a purely new light for their teacher.
It explained everything. His expertise at sword fighting and Wind Magic, why he looked like he hasn’t eaten in days, why he looked dirty most of the time and why he kept looking at a single picture of a woman with a smile on his face the entire time.
They couldn’t even stomach the mere idea of the pain that Mars suffered through, to kill the person that he cared about, in his own hands. That was the most painful thing they ever had to hear.
“Old man Zell, I… didn’t think about how much you had to went through to get to this point.” said Asta as Fanzell stood up.
“Nah, it is okay, I have gotten used to this pain, unfortunately, so you guys don’t have to worry about that. I will just… need some time for myself.” he said as he stood up and walked into his house as the two foster brothers stood in silence.
Fanzell walked to his room and looked at his fiance’s wand in a nostalgic memory. He remembered the time he proposed to her, and how happy they were when she said yes.
It was a moment that he couldn’t stop thinking about.
The last time he was truly happy to this degree.
As he used his fiance’s wand and his own Wind Magic so he could create the woman he loved to his memory with a happy look on his face, as without turning around, he created the woman perfectly.
He smiled as he had a single tear go down his face, but he stopped crying as he heard the door opening.
“Master, I just wanted to say-”
“You don’t have to worry about me, Mariella. You know this isn’t my first time dealing with death.” he said as Mariella walked up to him.
“That is good to hear, at the very least.” she said, “But are you going to recover from it.”
“Most likely, yeah, but I will never forget about her. She will forever be a part of me until the day I die.” he said as he had a huge smile on his face.
Mariella smiled, “That is good to hear, but I want to tell you something.”
“Yeah, what is it?” he asked as he turned to Mariella.
“Remember all of those children you saved along with me when you and Domina escaped?” asked Mariella.
“Yeah, I hope they are doing well, but why do you ask?” he asked as Mariella smirked.
“Well I just wanted to tell you that, I was the only one who survived.” she said as Fanzell then noticed that she was holding. A dagger made out of pure ice. “Ice Creation Magic: Cold Betrayal.” she said as she stabbed him with the dagger made out of ice as he knelt down.
Blood came out of his mouth, “Mari- Mariella! Why would you do this?!” he yelled.
“Because it is my duty now,” she said as she walked backwards as then several mages busted through a window carrying robes, as one of them held Fanzell’s head. “I collect intel around the surrounding area, basing my numbers on how many people there are days before going to hunt them.”
Fanzell began breathing heavily, “I have to capture all of the fugitives whether I like it or not, and that includes you, Master. I have to do the Kingdom’s dirty work otherwise I would be as good as dead.”
“Don’t worry about this, we won’t kill you, but do not even think about escaping. We have this place surrounded by mages, so if you peacefully go along with us, we won’t hurt you.” she said.
“But… why do you need me?” he asked.
“That Crystal Magic user has been finishing up his final stages and we need your help on how to work with him because your last station was to work with him.” she said as Fanzell gritted his teeth.
“It’s Mars.”
“Excuse me?”
“His name is Mars, and I would like it if you didn’t treat him like a lab experiment.” he said as he looked at Mariella.
“Alright, but it doesn’t matter to m-”
She was quiet as she could hear two stars appearing and heard a boy say, “Star Magic: Median Hasta!” as then they saw what looked like a spear as the top part was that of a green colouring while the bottom was that of gray as it pierced through the door and even knocked out one of the mages as Mariella dodged it at the last second.
As then, Asta and Yuno came out of the place, one holding his Demon-Slayer Sword while the other his Wind Blade.
“Are you alright?!” asked Yuno as Fanzell slowly nodded.
“What is your problem?! Aren’t you glad for what the old man has done to you?!” yelled Asta as Mariella narrowed her eyes.
“Of course I am. If I didn't, why would I ever care about how you address him? He has taught me everything that I knew about fighting when I was his student so he has my respect.” she said.
“But then, why? Why would you do that to your own teacher?!” yelled Yuno.
“If I fixated about those parts, I wouldn’t have gotten this far,” she said as from her Cold Betrayal went down Fanzell’s blood as she pointed it at them, “I suggest you run away, before dying to an old man you don’t even know.”
“Like hell I will! This man has taught me more than enough about fighting than I have ever before!” yelled Asta as he gripped his sword, “If it weren’t for him, I doubt I would even get pass the Entrance exam without his help!”
“Not to mention, he taught me how to properly use my Wind Magic to its full use, so without him, my magic won’t help me to achieve my dream!” Yuno yelled, “And that is why…”
“That is why…”
“I RESPECT HIM!” both of them yelled at the same time as Fanzell frowned.
“These boys… they really have that much trust in me.” Fanzell looked at them, “Boys, follow her advice, run away, I doubt they would go after you if you did… wait, will you guys do that?” Mariella shook her head.
“You see? So please run away, and follow the promise you two made, don’t use your strength for someone like a random old man.” said Fanzell smiled.
“Are you kidding?! You are not just a random old man to us!” yelled Yuno.
Fanzell looked at them, “Kids, just please listen to me. I can handle these guys all on my own, even at this state.”
“But you have stabbed by her!” yelled Asta as he pointed at Mariella.
“I know, but that won’t slow me down. I have gotten into worse situations than this, but please, please I beg of you guys, just leave. Your safety to me is more valuable than mine, so please, leave.” he said with a pleading voice as Asta and Yuno looked at him and… they straightened up their backs.
They sighed as Yuno’s Wind Blade disappeared. They both turned around as they didn’t make a sound.
Before Mariella could even turn towards Fanzell, Yuno created a black star and then it went to the mage that was holding Fanzell, “Star Magic: Pinpoint Blast!” he yelled as the star homed on the mage as it exploded making the mage fly backwards as his back hit the trees.
Then, Asta charged a couple at Fanzell’s left and slammed them with his Slayer Sword as they were hit with a blunt attack, as Yuno went straight towards Fanzell’s right as he casted a “Wind Magic: Wind Blade Shower!” as several of the Wind Blades appeared next to him as they were sent flying towards the mages as they all homed on every other mage and each of them slashed the other mages as they all fell to the ground.
Fanzell then dropped to his knees, “Kids, please, get out of here I don’t care what happens to me, there is no life in me, I have nothing to look forward, no point in going forward, I am so tired out of all of this, get out of here. Leave me be.”
“Hell no! We are not leaving you.” said Yuno.
“That’s right! We are not leaving you! Life doesn’t just hand you hope and an easy life, you have to fight for it! It takes work and you have to work to find them yourself.” said Asta as Fanzell looked at him with a shocked expression as even Mariella looked at him shocked.
“If you are done moping, we need help, you know? We are severely outnumbered.” said Yuno as he got his Grimoire ready.
“Right!” said Asta as he saw two mages using Fire and Lighting Magic as a way to take them out, as the fire went on like a raging inferno while the lightning went to him like bolt of thunder as they yelled “Combination Magic: Bolt Of Inferno!” as Asta used his sword to block the attack as he was pushed back from the intensity of the attack.
Yuno then turned his eyes as he saw a combo attack from two Diamond Mages that went like rubies and emeralds as they yelled “Combination Magic: Crystal Beasts!” they yelled as the two attacks went towards him as he created two stars, one of beige and the other of pink, “Star Magic: Median Scutum!” as the two stars went around him to create a shield that was made out of them as even with that, he was pushed back.
Fanzell saw those being on par with at the bare minimum of 2 Diamond Mages, but even he knew that they aren’t going to be enough to win this. He smirked as he took his fiance’s wand, “Wind Creation Magic: Emperor Of Slicing Wind - Winter Wind!”
As then the two saw behind them a sword being created from the surrounding wind to create the same sword of wind they saw the first time they met him, but then they saw an attack from that powerful attack.
He pointed his Slashy towards the other Diamond Mages as then several Slashies went from it at blazing speeds, targeting every Diamond Mage he sees with the strength as like he threw it at them, at even the ones that Asta and Yuno were struggling against.
“Wow! That was so cool!” yelled Asta with stars in his eyes.
Fanzell smirked, “That one spell allows me to send several Slashies at my enemy as if I was pointing at them at high speeds. I call that The Flying One.” he said as Yuno grinned, “Sorry that you guys had to see me in such a sad state, but trust me that will be the last time you do.” he said.
“That’s good,” Yuno’s eyes then widened, “Asta watch out behind you!” Yuno yelled.
Asta turned to see Mariella creating a new spell that was by the name of “Ice Creation Magic: Iceberg’s Terrain.” she said as she was about to create a massive iceberg from her own hands, but Asta was quick enough to stop that as he took a half step and slashed it to pieces.
“That… sword can negate Magic?!” she yelled as Asta grinned.
“That’s right! I like to call it my Anti Magic!” he yelled as several more mages appeared around the home as Yuno, Asta and Fanzell all walked backwards until their backs were at each other.
“Damn it, we are outnumbered.” said Asta.
“Hope that it doesn’t bother you too much, since I am confident that I can handle these guys alone.” Yuno said with a smirk as he got his Grimoire ready in his hands.
“Oh really?! Then I bet I can beat more than you do!”
“You want to make a bet?!”
“Hell yeah I do!”
“Listen, kids, you two have shown me that we all have days where we have to give up and admit defeat, and today is not that day for me!” he yelled as he was ready to take all of these guys right here and now.
Even if he has to kill his own studen-
“We are withdrawing.”
“Huh?”
“Wait what?”
“Excuse me?”
“We are leaving, rounding up the casualties. We are leaving.” said Mariella as both Yuno and Asta looked at her all confused as they even dropped their Grimoires in pure shock
“So you are giving up?”
“But why?” asked both Asta and Yuno.
“Because, if you are staging an attack, go in with 3 times the power. If the number is halved, change your plan, but if the number is halved again, retreat.” she turned to Fanzell, “That’s what you told me, right.”
Fanzell narrowed his eyes.
“Don’t think this is over, Master. I will catch you one day, even if I die trying.” she said as she turned around.
“Good, because now, today, I am done running away like a coward.” he said as he looked at his fiance’s wand, “I know that Domina is out there, somewhere, alive, and I will make sure that she is safe.” he said.
“Yeah, so you have to keep track of his old man smell for the rest of your life!”
“Can you please stop saying that?”
“Fine, don’t think this is the last time you are going to see me, but it shows that you finally learned how to properly call him old man.” said Mariella as she began to walk away.
“How am I preferring you calling me a homeless man than this?” asked Fanzell to Yuno as he shrugged.
It was now the next day, as Yuno and Asta saw their teacher with a backpack, “You are already leaving?” asked Yuno as Fanzell laughed.
“Of course I am! I need to find a way to find Domina as soon as humanly possible and once I do, I will find a way to atone for my sins.” he said, “Which knowing me, will take me a couple of years.”
“Well, I hope you get to see your fiance soon.” said Asta with a smile on his face.
“Thanks, Asta. I am the type of guy to get things down, so I can’t wait to go,” he said, “I will no longer be hiding so I am going to see her if it is the last thing I do. And I can tell that you two are the same as me.”
They raised their eyebrows at that, “You know? You two are the type of people to get things done, so I hope you guys achieve your dreams because I believe in you guys!” he said.
Yuno and Asta smiled, “Thank you, and I will make you proud one day!”
“Yeah, and when I become the Wizard King, I will make sure to invite you old man!” Asta and Yuno said as they both looked at each other.
Fanzell laughed, “Well, I hope you two do become the Wizard King one day, as I wish the best of luck for both of you.” he said as they turned to Fanzell right before they waved to each other.
They saw Fanzell turn around to see him walk away as he had a determined look on his face when he did.
Both Yuno and Asta looked at him and smiled as they turned around.
“You know? I am going to miss him. He was a great teacher.” said Asta as Yuno nodded.
“I have to agree, I do wonder when we will meet him once again.” said Yuno as they both began walking away.
Well, they realized not even a full minute later as they could hear, “GUYS! HELP ME! I NEED YOUR HELP!”
They turned around as they saw Fanzell butt naked running away from a boar.
Both of them groan.
“AGAIN?!” yelled Asta as he took out his sword from his Grimoire.
5 Months Later
It was currently 5 months after the training of Fanzell and it was going actually pretty well. Asta got a real good way on how to use his Demon-Slayer Sword and Yuno got to know how to use his Wind and Star Magic as well as he could as Father nearly got a heart attack once he saw Yuno fly with Aruru and Hollo asking if they could fly with him as Asta was grumbling about him being a lucky prick.
They also did sit ups, push ups and squats together as Yuno actually got used to the training very easily compared to the first few days as he even built up a few muscles. Not as much as Asta’s, but still, not a bad start.
Not to mention they have enough wood for 6 lifetimes, so that helps that the others don’t really need to worry about the winter any more.
It was currently the day that they had to leave for the Magic Knight Selection Exam, as Father Orsi was crying up a tsunami, Nash was acting like he didn’t give a shit, Recca was asking if they were going to write, which of course they would, Hollo and Aruru crying, but not as much Father Orsi and Sister Lily wanted to make sure that they were safe.
They all said their goodbyes as they were on their way on their next journey of becoming the Wizard King! Joining one of the Magic Knights!
After a few minutes of walking, Yuno thought to himself as he said to Asta, “Wait, why don’t I just fly us there? It would be easier and it would save time.”
Asta thought about it, and while it does sound a bit of cheating to use such a fast way of travel, it would work in their favour so that they don’t get lost anywhere, “Sure! I would love to! But where am I going to be?” he asked as Yuno wasn’t a chariot, he can’t just sit on it as Yuno leads it.
“Well, how about my back? It would be easy, even with your weight.”
“HEY! Are you calling me fat?!”
“No, I am calling you heavy because of your muscles, you dumbass.”
“Oh, sorry.” Asta dropped his head, “I don’t know, I don’t think I am comfortable sitting on your back.”
“How about I carry you?” asked Yuno as Asta looked at him.
“Bridal style? No, thank you. It would be really awkward.” he said as Yuno nodded as that would be really awkward to be in, but Yuno had an idea as he grinned.
“I have an idea.”
“You do?! Really?!? Tell me!”
Sister Lily had to stop what she was doing as she swore she heard Asta’s voice yelling as she could recognize him yelling from miles and miles away as her eyes widened as she looked up.
Yuno was flying… while carrying Asta by his foot.
Asta was understandably flailing his arms away like he was a cartoon cartoon network yelling stuff like “LET ME GOOOOO! I DON’T WANT TO DIE! NOT BEFORE I MARRY SISTER LILY! PLEASE! YUNO I SWEAR, ONCE WE ARE ON GROUND I AM BEATING THE EVERLASTING SHIT OUT OF YOU!”
Yeah, no one was blaming him for reacting that way.
Author Notes:
HOLY SMOKES! I AM FINALLY DONE! 12K words for the Fanzell Chapter, and I am close to the Magic Selection Exam Chapter and we see the Gigachad known as Yami Sukehiro and my boy Nozel Silva.
Sorry that it took me this long, I was writing my Vrains and GX Stories before this, so I hope you guys enjoy it.
I decided to add Fanzell into the chapter early because I just find him very underrated if I had to say so. I mean, the dude taught Asta how to sword fight, thought Fana, 2 Shining Generals and Mariella. The dude was clearly an impressive fighter, and I decided to expand on Fanzell’s backstory and it will be quite the long amount of chapters without him and I want to write him more into the story (Like Mars, Domina and Ladros.) as I want to show just how great this guy is.
Here I decided to give Yuno a sword by the name of Wind Blade (Expect a lot of swords from these guys.) to reference one of his Wind Magic Spells and the ability to fly as I thought it was neat that he learned how to fly, as well a new Star Magic attack by the name of Taurus.
I have finally caught up to the Black Clover Manga as I can’t wait for more, and I have this question in mind: Should I give Yami his sister’s armour that she used against Asta when he was learning Zetten?
I am currently reading through Demon Slayer because I am all caught up to the Anime and I can’t wait to see how this anime ends.
I think that is about it, so see ya’!
Made Up Spells:
Star Magic: Pinpoint Blast - a powerful hoaming attack that I made up since I love the idea of them going straight towards him.
Star Magic: Median Hasta - same with Scutum.
Star Magic: Median Taurus - think of this as Yami’s Dimension Slash, but this time with a less range.
Wind Creation Magic: Wind Blade - one of Yuno’s wind blades that he uses for Wind Blades Shower
Ice Creation Magic: Cold Betrayal - wanted to give Mariella’s dagger a name
Ice Creation Magic: Iceberg’s Terrain - Imagine Tornado Fang, but with a more icy way and more dense.
Combination Magic: Bolt Of Inferno - Just wanted to make up a cool Fire and Lightning attack
Combination Magic: Crystal Beasts - Wanted to make a reference to Jesse Anderson as it shoots a shit ton of rubies and emeralds.
