With the Magic Emperors of past generations jumping out to give Asta a power boost, the Imperial Sword was successfully pulled out.
With the loss of the fusion magic interference from the Imperial Sword, the rampaging ley lines also returned to calm.
And because the Imperial Sword changed hands, the magic power supply to Conrad and the other four Magic Emperors was also cut off.
So the Magic Emperors on various battlefields and the magic they used, including legion-level magic soldiers and barriers covering the entire land, all began to collapse.
The last to disappear was Conrad. His life had long been burned out, and he had been moving by relying on the magic power provided by the Imperial Sword. After the magic supply was cut off, his life also ca to an end.
Perhaps because his body had been eroded too severely by magic power, he ultimately disintegrated into magic particles as well.
And perhaps seeing the appearance of the Magic Emperors of past generations, his final expression was no longer so extre, but instead showed a smile.
Perhaps in Asta, he saw the hope of realizing his dreams!
Dust to dust, earth to earth, this chaos caused by the forr Magic Emperor also ended with his death.
After the incident ended, Charles, Asta, and Yuno didn't follow the main force back to the royal capital.
Although the Imperial Sword was quickly pulled out, it still caused so impact.
For example, it triggered earthquakes of considerable intensity, and Hage Village, being closest, bore the brunt of it, with even the church suffering so damage.
So the three stayed behind to help with repairs, which was also a vacation that Julius allowed.
Actually, the church didn't suffer much damage, and the three people completed repairs to the damaged areas in just one day.
Yuno easily handled a large amount of work with magic, and there was also Asta, a guy overflowing with strength, to do the heavy lifting.
And Charles, as an excellent craftsman recognized by the God of Forging, didn't waste the free labor and almost completely renovated the church.
However, after eating a al in the new church, Yuno left. After all, as vice-captain of the Golden Dawn, he had quite a bit of work on his hands.
While Asta and Charles beca idle, so Charles began instructing Asta in sword training.
The only proper sword training Asta had ever received was from that retired Magic Knight from the Diamond Kingdom.
The rest he had learned by stealing techniques from opponents or comrades in battle.
But this world was still magic-supremacist after all, and the swordsmanship of those so-called magic swordsn only had decent power when combined with their own magic.
In short, for Asta, all that swordsmanship was too crude. So Charles began special training targeting this point.
Compared to achieving mutual understanding with the devil in the five-leaf clover grimoire and thus completely mastering anti-magic power, sword training was easier for the current Asta to grasp.
Asta naturally wouldn't miss any opportunity to beco stronger and gladly accepted Charles's guidance.
However, what Asta didn't expect was that after not seeing him for half a year, Charles had beco incomparably stronger than before. Not just his magic power and magic, but even his martial arts had improved to a realm he couldn't imagine.
So facing Charles's beating instruction thod, he really suffered. But what Asta feared least was hardship, and he endured no matter how harsh the training was.
And what that brought him was rapid progress in his swordsmanship level.
The wooden stick in Charles's hand collided with Asta's Demon-Slayer Sword, with neither using abilities other than swordsmanship.
Asta's progress was considerable, from being full of openings at the beginning and only able to let Charles beat him, to now being able to occasionally counterattack.
One could only say he was worthy of being the protagonist - Asta's talent in combat was truly astonishing.
"Alright, we can take a break now!"
Charles finally parried the Demon-Slayer Sword and said so.
Asta also breathed a sigh of relief, stuck the Demon-Slayer Sword in the ground, and began breathing heavily.
Wiping away his sweat, Asta took down the water bottle hanging to the side and drank deeply.
After taking a sip, Asta turned and offered the water bottle, saying, "Charles, do you want a sip?"
Charles slled that pungent herbal scent and politely declined, "I'll pass, but you're still drinking that stuff?"
From very early on, Asta, who had no magic power, had seen so thod sowhere to gain magic power.
It said that drinking a certain dicine after training could awaken magic power. He had persisted until now with no effect.
Asta scratched his hair and said, "It's not that I still want to awaken magic power, I'm just used to it.
By the way, where did Miss Stella go?"
Charles sighed and said, "She was dragged away by big sister reoleona. I wanted to take her around more!"
The cause of this was the previous battle, where reoleona, with her overwhelming strength and tenacious willpower, actually forced that undefeated female Magic Emperor to use her full strength, and reoleona even gained the upper hand.
Being able to fight all-out against soone she had always admired was the most exciting thing for reoleona.
But the battle was interrupted because the Imperial Sword was pulled out.
And reoleona, who hadn't had enough fun, heard that Charles had beco much stronger after returning, so she ca looking for him with great montum.
As a result, Charles was out purchasing materials for church repairs at the ti, so reoleona encountered Stella instead.
So when Charles returned, he saw a note left by Stella - his girlfriend had just been abducted like that!
A female dragon and a female lioness - hopefully Mount Yultim Volcano could withstand the ravaging by these two. But it was a strong magic zone after all, so it shouldn't be leveled... right?
Asta rembered the days of being specially trained by reoleona and couldn't help but shiver, but he was curious about what the battle between that strong girl Charles brought back and reoleona would be like.
As for why it would be a battle... could reoleona possibly drag soone to drink tea like a lady?
The two finished today's training and returned to the church. Just after tidying themselves up, they saw a gray spatial door open outside.
Finral walked out of it and said upon seeing them, "Great, you're both here. We have a mission!"
Charles and Asta looked at each other, then said goodbye to Sister Lily before following Finral through the spatial door back to the Black Bulls' base.
As soon as he returned to the Black Bulls base, Charles saw all the mbers gathered together.
Yami sat boldly on the sofa and spoke, "You're back, idiots! Your leisurely vacation ti is over, we have work to do!
This mission is about... the movents of the Spade Kingdom!"
Charles was startled, then imdiately understood - the main storyline was about to begin, and this was the precursor to the beginning of events.
Although he didn't know what specifically had happened, it was after all about the Spade Kingdom. Because according to intelligence obtained from the Heart Kingdom's queen, devil-possessed individuals were within the Spade Kingdom.
