[00:14] Nar     But a single mage saved them all. [00:26] Nar     He was called the Wizard King,     and he became a legend. [00:41] Asta     Granny! Get a grip! [00:49] Gauche     Don't you dare die, you old hag! [00:53] Gauche     You're going to make Marie sad if you die! [00:58] Gauche     I wouldn't like it very much, either! [01:02] Theresa     T-Take care of the children for me... [01:07] Theresa     In any battlefield... the victims     were... always the weak. [01:14] Theresa     It was always the innocent children. [01:18] Theresa     It's because I wanted to protect the children [01:22] Theresa     that I left the battlefield     and became a sister. [01:28] Asta     Granny! [01:29] Licht     What are you talking about? [01:32] Licht     All of you were born sinners. [01:37] Asta     What?! [01:44] Licht     You poor thing... Sally, look at     how much they've hurt you. [01:50] Sally     Master Licht... [01:52] Licht     Rest, my child. [01:55] Licht     Valtos. SIGN    Yes, sir. [02:03] Sally     See you later, Asta. [02:06] Sally     You belong to me. [02:09] Asta     I never want to see her again! SIGN    Forgive me, my lord. All this because I let her go alone... SIGN    I never imagined all of this would happen. [02:20] licht     There's no need for you to feel responsible. [02:23] Licht     I'm sure they used some underhanded methods. [02:28] Asta     Who are you calling underhanded?! [02:30] Asta     Look at what you did to all     those innocent children! [02:34] Licht     She mentioned earlier that the victims     on the battlefield are always the weak. [02:40] Licht     That is incorrect. [02:42] Licht     The victims are the strong. [02:45] Licht     Envied, feared, discriminated     against, persecuted, and... [02:52] Licht     stolen from. [02:54] Asta     What is he talking about? [02:57] Licht     That is why we will not     forgive the Clover Kingdom. [03:02] Licht     This time, we will destroy you     and create our own kingdom. [03:08] Asta     What the hell are you even talking about?! [03:11] Asta     You're the ones who attacked first, you jerk! [03:19] Licht     Shut your filthy mouth. [03:23] Licht     You're an eyesore. [03:24] Licht     Why does someone like you have that grimoire? [03:29] Asta     Grimoire? [03:30] Asta     Damn it... I can't see his attacks at all! [03:34] Asta     They hit me straight-on     at an incredible speed! [03:37] Asta     What do I... [03:40] Asta     This is the only way. [03:41] Asta     If I use my sword as a shield and charge     at him, I can avoid a fatal injury! [03:47] Asta     I'm not done yet! [03:49] Licht     That won't work. [03:52] Licht     I'll be taking that grimoire back. [03:56] Asta     I'm gonna... [03:58] Asta     di— [04:05] Gauche     Seriously? [04:08] Asta     Captain Yami! What are you doing here? [04:14] Yami     Why am I here? Well, obviously... [04:18] Yami     I'm a little lost. Give me     some directions, damn it. SIGN    Light Magic vs. Dark Magic [05:56] Asta     Captain, you were lost?! [06:00] Yami     Of course not, you moron. [06:03] Yami     I was joking, dumbass. [06:05] Asta     What?! [06:07] Yami     We're Magic Knights. Of course     we're going to show up. [06:12] Yami     Everyone back at the base was useless,     so I decided to come myself. [06:18] Yami     I'll kill them all later. [06:20] Asta     What the heck are they doing when     we're in this much trouble?! [06:23] Finral     He dragged me out of bed,     and now we're in this mess! [06:27] Yami     By the way, didn't I tell     you to take the day off? [06:31] Yami     Want me to give you a permanent vacation? [06:35] Asta     Ow, ow, ow, ow! [06:39] Yami     So, what's his deal? [06:42] Asta     Apparently he's the leader of     the Eye of the Midnight Sun. [06:44] Finral     Th-The Eye of the Midnight Sun?! [06:47] Yami     Oh? [06:48] Yami     I thought he'd be some big, burly guy     who could eat a cow in a single gulp, [06:54] Yami     but he's just a scrawny-ass beanpole. [06:56] Finral     Um, I'm pretty sure muscles     don't really matter. [07:00] Finral     What's with that guy's creepy,     infinite amount of magic?! [07:04] Finral     Not to mention, he uses light magic? [07:06] Finral     That's a super rare magic     that only a few people [07:08] Finral     throughout the history of the     Clover Kingdom have ever used! [07:11] Finral     Without a doubt, he's super     dangerous! I wanna go home! SIGN    That's the Black Bulls' captain. SIGN    Shall I summon the Third Eye? [07:22] Licht     There's no need. [07:23] Licht     I've always wanted to fight him,     since he uses dark magic. [07:31] Asta     Finral, please get the kids and     everyone else back to town. [07:33] Finral     Sure, leave it to me! [07:35] Finral     What are you going to do? [07:39] Asta     I can still fight! [07:42] Asta     I finally get a chance to see Captain Yami     in action! There's no way I'm leaving! [07:48] finral     Gauche and, uh... you there! Can you walk? [07:51] Gauche     More importantly, get to     the old hag! Hurry up! [07:53] Finral     Got it! [07:55] Finral     I've been around longer than you, y'know... [07:59] Finral     All right, Yami. I'm leaving the rest to you. [08:02] Yami     Hey. You better come back. [08:05] Finral     Gulp... [08:06] Finral     I was planning to just     stay out of harm's way. [08:09] Finral     You know, I think I'm running low on magic... [08:14] Finral     Like, for real! [08:15] Yami     What do you mean? I'm for real, too. [08:19] Finral     Of course you are... [08:23] Finral     Huh? [08:26] Yami     The hell do you think     you're doing to my ride? [08:29] Finral     Ride?! [08:31] Finral     Yeesh! I don't have enough     lives to stick around here! [08:35] Finral     Well, see you, Yami! [08:38] Yami     You better come back, damn it! [08:40] Asta     So cool! How'd you stop that? [08:44] Asta     What's up with that sword?! [08:45] Yami     Shut up, brat. [08:49] Yami     This is a weapon called a "katana"     from my homeland, the Land of the Sun. [08:53] Yami     And that was— [08:54] Yami     Like I have time to explain all this     right now. Besides, it's a pain. [08:58] Yami     Just watch! [09:00] Licht     Light Magic: Light Swords of Conviction. [09:06] Asta     Awesome! [09:08] Licht     He's boosting his physical abilities     with reinforcing magic [09:12] Licht     and cutting my light magic with     a sword cloaked in dark magic. [09:18] Licht     But that's not all. [09:22] Licht     How about this, then? [09:31] Licht     So this is the power of the     great Magic Knight heretic. [09:35] Yami     Huh? [09:36] Yami     Hey, have I met you somewhere before? [09:46] Yami     I'm pretty sure I don't know     anyone who uses light magic. [09:54] Yami     Who the hell are you? [09:56] Yami     And what's so fun about all of this? [10:06] Licht     Let me tell you a fable. [10:11] Licht     Long ago, in a certain village, there lived     a people with very strong magic. [10:16] Licht     They were loved by mana. [10:21] Licht     They changed the weather     and manipulated ley lines. [10:26] Licht     They had power to rival the gods. [10:29] Licht     The humans from outside the     village worshipped them as such. [10:35] Licht     However, gradually, the humans     grew to fear their power. [10:40] Licht     They envied it and wanted it. [10:43] Licht     They tricked them, massacred them,     and stole their powers. [10:50] Yami     What kind of story was that? [10:53] Yami     What's that got to do with you? [10:55] Yami     Planning to become a bard or something? [11:01] Yami     All right, I've got a little story, too. [11:05] Yami     In a certain place,     there was a pure young man. [11:09] Yami     His folks were fishermen, and they started     sending him out to fish from a young age. [11:16] Yami     And then he got shipwrecked... [11:18] (Flashback) Yami     Augh! [11:22] (Flashback) Yami     Seriously? [11:24] Yami     ...and washed ashore in a strange country. [11:28] (Flashback) Guy     Who the hell is this? [11:31] (Flashback) Guy2     He's wearing grass sandals. [11:33] (Flashback) Guy 3     You can't be serious! [11:35] Yami     Since his race and culture were different,     he went through some nasty stuff there. [11:40] Yami     But... [11:44] Yami     He kicked all their asses and     became the boss of a group. [11:48] Yami     The end! [11:55] Yami     Well? What'd you think of my response fable? [11:57] Yami     Well, it's half of my life, actually. SIGN    You bastard! You dare mock Master Licht?! [12:03] Yami     Shut up! Your face is scary! [12:06] Yami     Why are there lines on your face?! [12:08] Asta     You're bringing that up now?! [12:12] Yami     He got faster. [12:14] Licht     As a foreigner, I suppose my     story had nothing to do with you. [12:18] Licht     Would you mind stepping off the stage, then? [12:25] Asta     Captain Yami! [12:28] Licht     I wonder how long you can     avoid a fatal blow? [12:33] Yami     Are you the guy who took out Fuegoleon? [12:38] Licht     I am. [12:41] Licht     Although I laid my plans carefully     and had him walk into a trap. [12:47] Yami     Yeah, I figured. [12:49] Yami     You'd never take down that King     of Hardnoses with stuff like this. [13:48] Yami     Dark Magic: [13:50] Yami     Dark Cloaked [13:53] Yami     Lightless Slash! SIGN    Master Licht! [13:58] Asta     A-Amazing... He's so frickin' cool! [14:03] Yami     Trap, eh? I'm sure you wouldn't     have been able to win [14:06] Yami     without doing something underhanded. SIGN    How dare you?! [14:10] Yami     This time, come right at me. [14:13] Yami     I'll show you the true power     of a Magic Knight Captain! [14:27] Yami     Hey, brat. Were you watching that? [14:30] Asta     Y-Yes, sir! [14:31] Yami     Good. Now try the same thing. [14:34] Asta     Yes, sir! [14:35] Asta     Wait... Like I could actually do that! [14:37] Asta     Of course I can't! [14:39] Yami     Oh? Who do you think you're talking to? [14:42] Asta     Huh? [14:43] Yami     I told you to do it, so do it. [14:46] Asta     Ow, ow, ow, that really hurts! Ow, ow, ow! [14:47] Yami     That'll make you a bigger man. [14:52] Valtos     Not only did he manage to stop     all of Master Licht's attacks, [14:55] Valtos     he even managed to counter. [14:57] Valtos     The Black Bulls' captain... [15:00] Valtos     Does his strength actually     rival the Wizard King's?! [15:05] Licht     I see... So this is dark magic. [15:11] Licht     Light Recovery Magic:     Healing Light Particles. [15:18] Asta     He can use recovery magic, too? [15:21] Yami     I haven't seen it in person much, [15:23] Yami     but apparently, guys loved by     mana can use all sorts of magic. [15:29] Yami     It's especially rare for an     attack-type to also be able to heal. [15:34] Yami     Anyway, get ready. [15:37] Asta     He was actually serious! [15:39] Asta     No, really! I can't! [15:41] Asta     Not in the middle of fighting! [15:42] Asta     Not to mention, I don't have any magic! [15:45] Yami     I don't mean the last attack I did. [15:48] Yami     I'm saying do the thing before that, idiot. [15:51] Asta     And I can't block attacks that I can't see! [15:55] Yami     You're hopeless. [15:57] Yami     I'll explain it just this once.     You'll have to pay me 500 yuls later. [16:00] Asta     He's charging?! [16:02] Yami     The reason I've been able     to react to the attacks [16:05] Yami     is because of something called "ki"     from back in my homeland. [16:09] Asta     Ki? Not mana? [16:12] Yami     Yeah. SIGN    Ki [16:14] Yami     People looking at you,     the sound of their breathing, [16:17] Yami     their smell, the motions of their muscles, [16:20] Yami     the vague sense that they're there... [16:22] Yami     Ki is the blanket term for all of the     different types of life energy [16:25] Yami     the human body emits. [16:27] Yami     I read that ki and predicted     his next move, then made mine. [16:32] Yami     You've done that before, haven't you? [16:36] Asta     Come to think of it... [16:40] Yami     When I do it, I combine it with     magic and muscle, and fight that way. [16:47] Yami     I guess it's like being a magic     swordsman or something. [16:50] Asta     Muscles! So that's why your neck's     so thick, Captain Yami! [16:54] Yami     Like you can talk, kid. SIGN    He has the nerve to converse during a battle. SIGN    The insolence... [17:02] Licht     He's just full of surprises. [17:05] Licht     To think he could keep up     with this speed, as well. SIGN    I cannot allow him to trouble you any further, Master Licht. SIGN    I know this is impertinent of me, but would you allow me to assist you? [17:17] Licht     Thank you, Valtos. You're always so helpful. [17:23] Licht     In that case, that boy...     Would you capture him? [17:28] Licht     You may injure him slightly if need be. SIGN    An easy task. [17:38] Asta     Huh? [17:41] Asta     That was close! [17:43] Yami     Perfect timing. Practice on that     scrawny dude with the slanty eyes. [17:47] Asta     Huh?! On the scrawny dude     with the slanty eyes? [17:50] Asta     That's too sudden! Of course I can't! [17:55] Yami     Where I come from, we've got this saying... [17:57] Yami     "A warrior never goes back on his word." [18:01] Yami     You said you were going to     become the Wizard King, didn't you? [18:06] Yami     Surpass your limits. Right here, right now. [18:09] Yami     There's no other way. [18:14] Asta     Yes, sir! [18:18] Asta     I don't get it at all, but... [18:20] Asta     For starters, concentrate... Concentrate! SIGN    Someone with no magic like you could never stop my attacks. [18:34] Asta     You're there! [18:38] Asta     I didn't stop all of it. [18:39] Yami     Wrong. [18:41] Yami     You can't fool me, kid. [18:45] Yami     You just reacted to your ears that time. [18:48] Yami     That ain't ki. [18:50] Yami     Use all five senses, and sense it     with your whole body, you moron! [18:54] Asta     With my whole body? [18:56] Yami     Yeah. You can't just rely     on your ears or your eyes. [19:00] Yami     Visualize something halfway between     instinct and a prediction. [19:04] Yami     If you don't do it right, I'll kill you! [19:06] Asta     That's insane. [19:10] Asta     But I think I kinda get it. [19:13] Asta     Not just my ears, not just my eyes... [19:17] Asta     Then... I'm just going to reset everything. [19:22] Asta     Concentrate... [19:30] Asta     You're there! SIGN    Wha— [19:47] Asta     I did it! [19:49] Asta     I did it, Captain Yami! [19:51] Yami     Wow, you actually managed to do it?     Talk about creepy, you weirdo. [19:56] Asta     What?! [20:03] Licht     Valtos... [20:06] Licht     How dare you... harm Valtos?! [20:12] Licht     I cannot allow people like     you to harm my comrades [20:16] Licht     ever again! [20:20] Asta     What's your deal? You're the     ones who started this! [20:26] Licht     The path this spell traces     resembles the motions of a whip. [20:32] Licht     Can you predict its movements? [20:38] Licht     It's said that whips were used to     punish criminals, once upon a time. [20:44] Licht     That makes it a perfect fit for you two! [20:48] Licht     Light Creation Magic: Light Whip of Judgment! [20:59] Licht     It's useless to struggle! [21:05] Asta     The cave! [21:08] Yami     That nutcase has gone ballistic! [21:39] Licht     Oh, dear... I held back most of my magic, [21:42] Licht     but it's all really too fragile... [21:45] Licht     Both this world and you fools. SIGN    You're amazing, Master Licht! Your strength is practically divine! SIGN    If you felt like it, Master Licht, the Magic Knights would be no more than infants! SIGN    What?! [23:39] Yami     The leader of the Eye of the     Midnight Sun... Licht, was it? [23:42] Yami     Talk about a huge forehead. [23:44] Yami     I guess you'd expect that     from a light magic user. [23:46] Yami     Black Clover, Page 35:     "The Light of Judgment." SIGN    Page 35           The Light of Judgment [23:50] Yami     Going beyond my limits is my magic!
