"What are you talkin all big for?! We're comrades!What else would we do!?"Asta exclaims as his grimoire flies in front of him and the handle of a sword pops out, Asta jumps back slightly in surprise.

"You lousy little runt. That's not how you talk to your betters."Guache returns to his deadly aura.Asta pays him no mind as he pulls his second sword from his grimoire and thinking deeply about it.He suddenly lights up and turns as the monster looms over us.He swings his arm that had the second sword and a slash flies across and cuts through the monster, unfortunately it flies straight through the monster, uneffecting it.

"Even that isn't gonna work?!"Asta exclaims.

No shit baka-sta, I threw attacks at it too!

"Whoa!What was that?!What is that!?A flying anti-magic slash attack!? How did you launch it?!How did you!?"Sally screams, boredom completely gone as she sets her interest in Asta's second sword.I see Gauche launching himself forwards.

I guess the only way to take the monster down is to hit it with simultaneous strikes so it doesn't have time to regenerate.

Wait, who the heck is this voice!?!?It kinda sounds like Gauche....

A sudden strike of pain shot up my neck and it gradually spreaded up into my mind.

My brain is burning up...I'm still hearing his voice!

I've always used my magic to create copies of myself, what if I used it on somebody else?

I see Gauche stop flying and land down on the ground near Theresa, the throbbing in my head starts to melt away.I re compose myself as Gauche asks for assistance from Theresa, he suddenly turns to Asta.

"ASTA!LOOK AT ME!"Gauche shouts as he lifts his locks of hair to reveal his right eye.Asta looks confusingly at Gauche when he suddenly realises his plan.

"Mirror Magic:Mirror Brigade."

A hoard of Asta start to appear, Sally and Tgeresa scream in surprise as I look in shock trying to recover from my headache.

The Astas charge forwards and each of them slashes their sword.The pieces of mud flies everywhere and some land on Sally, she topples backwards and falls on the ground.

"AWRIGHT!"Asta cheers as Gauche beams.The children behind me cheer.

The pain was so much, I didn't realize the spell I casted wore off...

We hear Sally laugh as she sits up with a large smile.

"That was....that was amazing.....I've just gotta analyze that power you used....Astaaaaa, you're mine, you know that?"Sally grins as Asta steps back a little behind me before he cries in victory.He plasters a large smile and jumps around, I couldn't help but smile for him.

"Asta!Behind you!"Theresa yells.I quickly whip out my grimoire and shot a blizzard behind him, as the blizzard neared Asta a stroke of pain stunned my mind,I fell to the ground as the current disappeared, I clutched my head in pain.

"I-it's hot.....so hot.....it hurts....arrrgghhhh!"I rolled around clutching my head, trying to make the agony go away.A gust of clod wind blew tpwards us as I struggle to look up to see a frozen statue of the enemy and Asta conversing with Neige.

"I can't h-hear....."I say slowly as the pain in my head increases.I yell out in pain as some of the children start to look slightly frightened.Gauche bends down and touches my shoulder.

"Ahhh!No! Stop!that burns!"I shout trying to wave his hand way.I roll over and see a spatial portal opening up.

"H-hey!Watch out!"I try to shout to them pointing a shaking finger at the portal.

I'm losing my senses, what the hell is happening to me?

I feel my eyes droop lower with each breath I took, until all light was shut out from my sight.

3rd PoV

(

Y/n) had fainted and Asta rushed over to try and help her, he lifts up her arm from her stomach and her expression immediately frowns.He turns back as he hear Neige stop talking.A bright white slash has cut him down, letting go of (Y/n)'s arm he rushes over to Neige and helps him up and carries him towards Theresa.

"Granny! Can you help them?!"Asta says in panic as more of the white blades started to fire at them.Gauche spots them, barely and dodges them by jumping backwards, he lets his foot slip and he slides onto the floor with a thud.

"Gauche!What's going on!?"Theresa cries as she tries to drag (Y/n) towards her and the children, she looks up to Asta.

"Asta!Come here quickly!"She yells at him.Some children start to spill the tears they've been holding in as more light shoot their way to Theresa.Theresa opens her grimoire and makes the arrows disappears as they come towards her and the children.Asta struggles as he pulls Neige next to (Y/n), he sees a blade fly past him, he looks up in surprise to see Theresa covered in red with arrows of white periced into her.

"Old hag!"Guache yells in worry.The children start to cry more as they surround her yelling.

"Granny!"

"Sister!"Theresa falls to the ground as the children loom over her hody, dripping tears all over.

"C-children...."Theresa breathes out, looking at them.

"Are you alright!?"They ask her.Theresa sputters more blood from her lips.

"Always, on the battlefield....it was the weak...the innocent children, who were thw victims of war. I wanted to protect those children, so I left the battlefield...and became a nun.Asta...please...protect all these children."Her last words were forces despite her state.

"Granny!"A new presence suddenly appears, a bright, yet evil presence.

"What are you talking about? You people are born as sinners."A voice says to them.Asta turns to face the bright light and recognizing a certain face.

"You...you were at the enemy's hideout!"He shouts.

"I haven't introduced myself have I?I am the leader of the Midnight Sun, Licht."He greets them as blades that had injured Theresa floats around him, he was holding the battered up Sally.He wore a religious like robe with his hair tied up behind him in braids, he also had strange red markings around his eyes.Besidd him was the spatial caster and a grimoire.

The four leaf clover?! Just like Yuno's!

Asta thought as he spots the grimoire next to Licht.Licht looks down at Sally as tears drip from his eyes.

"Just look how badly you've hurt my comrade, poor Sally."He says rubbing her cheek with his hand.

"Master Licht!"Sally yelps in surprise.

"She said she was going to the old laboratory, but I never dreamed this would happen..."The spatial user starts as he looks down in guilt.

"Theres no need for you to feel responsible, Valtos."Licht says to him, beofre continuing his conversation with Asta.

"A moment ago, you said it was the weak that were victims.You're wrong.The victims were the strong. The targets of jealousy, fear, discrimnation, presecution and theft!"

"What is this guy talking about?!"Asta exclaims to himself, listening to tbe words of Licht.

"And so we will not forgive the Clover Kingdom.This time we'll destroy you, and create pur own kingdom!"Licht declares as he hands Sally over to the Valtos.

"What's all that crazy, mixed-up stuff you keep babbling about?!You're the ones who started this fight jerks!"Asta fires back.Licht looks at asta before travelling his eyes towards (Y/n)'s body that was still squirming in pain.

She's the next God, the one the prophecy spoke of.If I remeber correctly it said...You'll see a maiden, alive in pain, a grimoire bestowed from the heavens.If the maiden ever bears a child, the child will become a vessel for his return.
Place her under a spell, manipulate and fool her friends as she turns into a foe.But, beware of the devil that will snatch back and return her to the throne of the heavens.
