**[00:04] Nar**
*Asta, Noelle, and Magna encountered*
**[00:07] Nar**
* a mysterious enemy when they*
* arrived at Saussy Village.*
**[00:11] Nar**
* They fought hard against the enemy's*
* attack in order to protect the villagers,*
**[00:16] Nar**
* but the enemy's magical powers*
* were just too great.*
**[00:20] Heath**
Not only can you negate magic,
you can repel it, as well.
**[00:25] Heath**
But that is not enough to defeat me.
**[00:27] Heath**
The blades of ice will
come one after another.
**[00:31] Heath**
Now, just try and protect them.
**[00:35] Magna**
Damn it!
**[00:37] Magna**
* It's going to take everything Asta*
* and I have to protect the villagers.*
**[00:41] Magna**
* Not to mention, my powers*
* are reaching their limit.*
**[00:45] Magna**
* This turned out to be one hell*
* of a first mission for those two!*
**[00:48] Magna**
*This isn't good!*
**[00:50] Magna**
But if I cut and run now, I'm not a real man!
**[00:57] Magna**
It just so happens I'm a lowly
commoner myself! I'll protect you!
**[01:00] Noelle**
*I'm... royalty.*
**[01:04] Noelle**
* I have more magical power*
* than anyone else here.*
**[01:07] Magna**
Step back, Lady Noe!
**[01:10] Noelle**
*And yet I'm just holding them back!*
**[01:13] Lu**
Miss Magic Knight...
**[01:18] Lu**
Save us!
**[01:21] Noelle**
*This little girl is asking for help.*
**[01:26] Noelle**
*I'm going to protect them!*
**[01:28] Noelle**
*There's no way...*
**[01:30] Noelle**
*I can run now!*
**[01:33] Noelle**
*A new spell?*
**[01:38] Noelle**
Water Creation Magic: Sea Dragon's Lair!
**[01:46] Nar**
* As their owners mature, new spells*
* are engraved into the grimoires.*
**[01:52] Nar**
* Maturity can stem from the wizard's*
* magical powers growing through training,*
**[01:56] Nar**
* or improving the creativity*
* of their magical powers.*
**[01:59] Nar**
* But sometimes, it can come*
* from a rise or change*
**[02:02] Nar**
* in their emotional state,*
* or gaining new resolve.*
**[02:07] Noelle**
I'll protect them! I'm royalty,
**[02:10] Noelle**
and a member of the Black Bulls!

Miss...
**[04:02] Noelle**
W-Well, I guess you're not so tough after all.
**[04:05] Magna**
*Look at that power!*
**[04:08] Magna**
Hey, Lady Noe! What'd I tell you?
You can do it if you try!
**[04:12] Heath**
What? What is this magical power?
**[04:17] Nar**
* The beast had been waiting for*
* his chance to fight back.*
**[04:23] Nar**
*For the moment when he could sink his teeth*
**[04:26] Nar**
*into his prey's throat.*
**[04:30] (Flashback) Heath**
The three of you
**[04:31] (Flashback) Heath**
also had enough magical power to
join the Magic Knights, did you not?
**[04:35] Asta**
I don't have any magical powers!
**[04:39] Asta**
But I'm going to kick your ass!
**[04:47] Dejire & Gustave**
Lord Heath!
**[04:49] Magna**
Stupidsta!
**[04:51] Noelle**
He... He did it?
**[04:59] Asta**
* He broke my momentum by*
* making me slip on a patch of ice?*
**[05:04] Heath**
Though your sword can negate magic,
**[05:07] Heath**
it appears that you're just
a normal human after all.
**[05:13] Heath**
Now it's my turn.
**[05:30] Heath**
May you sleep... for eternity.
**[05:34] Magna**
A-Asta!
**[05:37] Heath**
That spell possesses
immense magical power.
**[05:41] Heath**
But it's only a matter of time.
**[05:44] Heath**
I should be able to create an
entrance big enough for one person.
**[05:53] Heath**
It should take about 25 seconds.
**[05:59] Heath**
You lot seem to greatly enjoy wasting my time.
**[06:04] Heath**
You will pay a heavy price for that.
**[06:09] Manga**
* I don't have much power left,*
* but I have to fight.*
**[06:14] Magna**
* Fire and ice. In terms of magical*
* attributes, I have the upper hand.*
**[06:19] Magna**
* But he has enough magical power*
* to turn that advantage around.*
**[06:24] Magna**
*He's just too strong.*
**[06:28] Magna**
*Sorry, Mister Yami.*
**[06:30] Magna**
*I don't think I'm going to win against...*
**[06:34] Asta**
I'm not done yet!
**[06:35] Heath**
Too slow!
**[06:40] Magna**
Asta!
**[06:41] Heath**
I'm surprised you're still alive.
**[06:43] Heath**
You're quite resilient. However...
**[06:46] Heath**
You won't be able to swing
that sword with those wounds.
**[06:51] Asta**
Not yet!
**[06:53] Heath**
You're no wild boar.
**[07:08] Asta**
I'm not done yet!
**[07:13] Heath**
Stop. Don't make me waste any more time.
**[07:20] (Flashback) Magna's friend A**
That's amazing, Magna!
**[07:24] (Flashback) Magna's friend B**
To think that someone from Rayaka
would end up being a Magic Knight!
**[07:30] (Flashback) Manga's friend d**
You're the pride of our village!
**[07:33] (Flashback) Magna's friend A**
Let's lift him up!
**[07:35] (Flashback) Magna's friends**
Magna!
**[07:37] (Flashback) Magna's friends**
Magna!
**[07:39] (Flashback) Magna's friends**
Magna!
**[07:44] (Flashback) Seyhe**
I see. That's wonderful. Good, good.
**[07:47] (Flashback) Seyhe**
Well done, Magna.
**[07:49] (Flashback) Magna**
Yeah.
**[07:51] (Flashback) Seyhe**
Now you're more than just a delinquent.
**[07:57] (Flashback) Magna**
Huh?
**[07:59] (Flashback) Seyhe**
This is from me.
**[08:00] (Flashback) Magna**
Old Man...
**[08:06] (Flashback) Magna**
Well?
**[08:09] (Flashback) Seyhe**
It looks good on you.
Become the best man you can.
**[08:13] (Flashback) Magna**
Yeah!
**[08:17] Magna**
I'm not going to give up until the end.
**[08:26] Magna**
*What good would it do if I gave up?*
**[08:30] Magna**
This spell... It's probably a lot easier
to get outside than in, right?
**[08:34] Noelle**
Uh... Yes, I think so.
**[08:37] Magna**
I'm leaving the villagers to you, Lady Noe!
**[08:40] Noelle**
H-Hey!
**[08:42] Heath**
You have no chance of winning.
Why won't you give up?
**[08:48] Asta**
If I give up, who's going to protect them?
**[08:54] Asta**
I've realized something.
**[08:57] Asta**
It's not just because of our promise.
**[09:00] Asta**
I'm going to become the Wizard King
**[09:03] Asta**
so I can protect everyone!
**[09:06] Heath**
The Wizard King? What a foolish dream.
**[09:10] Heath**
Unfortunately, you'll be dead in one minute.
**[09:13] Magna**
That's not happening, you dumbass!
**[09:19] Magna**
If you want to kill him,
**[09:24] Magna**
you're going to have to get
through me, his senior, first!
**[09:29] Asta**
Magna!
**[09:32] Magna**
You know... You're quite the man, Asta.
**[09:36] Heath**
You fool. You've just hastened your death.
**[09:40] Heath**
Thirty seconds.
**[09:43] Magna**
Bring it on!
**[09:46] Magna**
Here we go, Asta!
**[09:47] Asta**
Huh?
**[09:49] Magna**
Time for an initiation!
**[09:54] Magna**
Take this! My last remaining bit of magic!
**[10:01] Magna**
Soul Ball!
**[10:06] Magna**
Flame Magic: Prison Death Scattershot!
**[10:15] Heath**
So this is your final spell?
**[10:19] Heath**
How wasteful.
**[10:23] Heath**
It's time.
**[10:30] Asta**
It's not a waste!
**[10:34] Heath**
* They drew us in with a decoy,*
* then used our blind spot...*
**[10:36] Heath**
*Magic reflection!*
**[10:42] Magna**
I'm okay?
**[10:49] Noelle**
You'd better thank me,
you mohawked delinquent.
**[10:52] Noelle**
*Yes! Yes! I was able to control my magic!*
**[10:57] Magna**
You never shut up, do you?
**[11:03] Heath**
*These flames... won't go out?*
**[11:06] Heath**
*Then I'll just freeze them over!*
**[11:11] Asta**
Not yet!
**[11:13] Asta**
I can still move!
**[11:17] Heath**
W-Wait...
**[11:19] Asta**
Like hell I will!
**[11:40] Heath**
*These flames... won't go out?*
**[11:42] Heath**
*Then I'll just freeze them over!*
**[11:47] Asta**
Not yet!
**[11:50] Asta**
I can still move!
**[11:53] Heath**
W-Wait...
**[11:56] Asta**
Like hell I will!
**[12:02] Heath**
*Impossible...*
**[12:05] Heath**
*I...*
**[12:07] Heath**
*lost to this brat?*
**[12:11] Heath**
* I wanted... to be of more use...*
* to the master...*
**[12:22] Nick**
They did it?
**[12:24] Lu**
Miss?
**[12:26] Noelle**
Yes. We beat him for sure this time.
**[12:40] Magna**
First, my Flame Magic:
Prison Death Scattershot,
**[12:44] Magna**
and now, Flame Binding Magic:
Flame Bondage Formation.
**[12:50] Noelle**
I guess you're more talented
than you look. Have some praise.
**[12:54] Magna**
Shut up! I'm your senior!
**[12:56] Magna**
Why are you looking down on me?!
**[12:58] Noelle**
Well, you're physically below—
**[13:00] Asta**
Magna!
**[13:08] Noelle**
What are you doing?! You need
to follow through properly!
**[13:16] Lu**
So cold!
**[13:19] Magna**
You've still got a ways to go, Lady Noe!
**[13:21] Magna**
More importantly, it looks like one got away.
Ugh, I blew it! Damn it!
**[13:34] Asta**
How'd you like that?
Some lowly commoners just won.
**[13:40] Asta**
How'd you like that, damn it?!
**[13:48] Magna**
Asta!
**[13:52] Magna**
Wait, he's asleep?!
**[13:56] Noelle**
Honestly, he's so ridiculous.
**[13:59] Noelle**
*He's stupid, loud, and a lowly commoner...*
**[14:04] Noelle**
*But he's sort of amazing.*
**[14:10] Villager A**
Whew... We're saved.
**[14:13] Villager B**
He's just a boy.
**[14:15] Villager C**
Is he really a commoner like us?
**[14:18] Villager D**
Magna, young lady... Thank you.
**[14:22] Magna**
No problem!
**[14:24] Noelle**
It was nothing.
**[14:26] Villager A**
You're our saviors!
**[14:33] Villager A**
What's that? An anti-bird?
**[15:13] Magna**
You finally awake, you jerk?
**[15:17] Manga**
I'm going to rest a bit more
and then escort you to
**[15:20] Manga**
the royal capital on my Crazy Cyclone.
**[15:26] Magna**
Spend the rest of your life atoning for what
you did to those villagers, you bastards.
**[15:33] Heath**
*So my magic is sealed.*
**[15:37] Magna**
You're going to spill everything
to the Magic Knights,
**[15:41] Magna**
including who you guys are
and what your motives are!
**[15:45] Heath**
I refuse.
**[15:47] Heath**
It appears the end has come.
**[15:54] Magna**
*There was a magic item inside him?*
**[15:57] Heath**
Ice Magic: Ice Burial.
**[16:02] Magna**
Wha—
**[16:12] Magna**
Talk about resolve. Is there
someone he was that loyal to?
**[16:21] Asta**
You idiot!
**[16:24] Magna**
He went through all that...
What was he after, anyway?
**[16:31] Asta**
What do...
**[16:33] Asta**
What do you think life is?!
**[16:37] Asta**
I'm never going to acknowledge these jerks!
**[16:42] Asta**
Never!
**[16:58] Nick**
Grandpa...
**[17:01] Lu**
Let's go home, Nick.
**[17:04] Nick**
Grandpa really loved the view from here.
**[17:08] Magna**
Yeah.
**[17:11] Magna**
So, Nick, I heard
**[17:13] Magna**
that Old Man Seihi was the only
one to stand up to those guys.
**[17:44] Magna**
Your grandpa was a real man.
**[17:49] Nick**
Grandpa sounded really happy.
**[17:52] Nick**
He said that even though it was
**[17:54] Nick**
just gambling, he still
beat some Magic Knights.
**[17:56] Magna**
Yeah.
**[17:58] Lu**
He gave this to me as a gift.
**[18:01] Lu**
He even bought lots of yummy
food for everyone in the village.
**[18:10] Nick**
He never got to be one, but Grandpa
always admired the Magic Knights.
**[18:17] Magna**
Yeah.
**[18:18] Nick**
And they were also his regret.
**[18:22] Asta**
Regret?
**[18:24] Nick**
He always regretted not working
harder when he was younger.
**[18:29] Magna**
Yeah...
**[18:32] Nick**
But... he seemed really
happy about the fact that
**[18:36] Nick**
Magna was working hard for the both of them.
**[18:40] Magna**
Yeah.
**[18:42] Nick**
Hey, do you think... I'll be able
to become a Magic Knight, too?
**[18:48] Magna**
Of course!
**[18:52] Magna**
Nothing's impossible!
**[18:55] Magna**
Your future is something that
you decide for yourself!
**[18:58] Asta**
Not only am I a commoner, but I've got
no magic powers, and I still made it in!
**[19:03] Asta**
But you've gotta work super extra hard!
**[19:08] Magna**
Give it your all!
**[19:10] Noelle**
Do your best.
**[19:12] Nick**
Yeah!
**[19:13] Asta**
By the time you join the Magic Knights,
**[19:16] Asta**
I'm going to be working even harder,
doing even more missions,
**[19:19] Asta**
and I'll be even closer to
becoming the Wizard King.
**[19:22] Magna**
Jeez. There you go talking nonsense again.
**[19:25] Magna**
But you need to dream big.
That's what it means to be a man!
**[19:33] Asta**
I'll be waiting for you, kid!
**[19:35] Nick**
Right!
**[19:37] Asta**
Yeah!
**[19:42] Asta**
Ow, ow, ow, ow!
**[19:47] Asta**
What do you have against my head,
you stupid bird?! You wanna fight?!
**[19:52] Asta**
Why, you...
**[19:56] Asta**
What's that stone?
**[19:59] Nick**
Oh, that's a charm that my grandpa had.
**[20:04] Asta**
Hey, that's really important!
**[20:06] Asta**
Let go! Give it back!
**[20:12] Nick**
You can have it.
Apparently that bird really likes it.
**[20:16] Nick**
It's the least I can do to
repay you guys for saving us.
**[20:19] Asta**
O-Okay...
**[20:23] Noelle**
Those spiteful little eyes...
**[20:27] Noelle**
Th-They're so cute!
**[20:31] Noelle**
You can come over here, too!
**[20:36] Asta**
Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow!
**[20:38] Asta**
What is your problem with my head?!
I'm gonna barbecue you!
**[20:42] Asta**
Come back here!
**[20:46] Asta**
Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow!
**[20:49] Asta**
The heck are you doing, you jerk?!
**[21:10] Shadow**
So Heath was... I see.
**[21:13] Shadow**
So the magic stone fell into
the hands of the Black Bulls.
**[21:17] Dejire**
Yes.
**[21:19] Shadow**
No matter.
**[21:21] Shadow**
We can take care of the
Black Bulls at any time.
**[21:26] Shadow**
Let them hold on to the
magic stone for a while.
**[21:34] Shadow**
Our master's resurrection is close at hand.

Day in the Castle Town."

Not giving up is my magic!
