  ***********************************

  "Ah... Hahaha..."

  Julius ughed embarrassingly, rubbing his head.

  Nacht quickly shared what he had discovered during his time in the Spade Kingdom with everyone.

  "So to sum it up, the current rulers of the Spade Kingdom are trying to ect this world to the world of devils. In order to do so, they need are stage Dark Magid World Tree Magic to create something called the tree of Qilphoth."

  "Why... Why would they do such a thing!"

  Shuddering after hearing Nacht's expnation, Rill was uo uand why anyone would do something so dangerous as to summon the king of all Devils.

  "Who knows." Nacht shrugged his shoulders and replied. "As magiight captains, you've probably all seen it before. Scumbags who hurt others for no reason other than to satiate their desires. Trash who feel no guilt or remorse as long as they get what they want."

  "The Dark Triad are paragons of such vermin. I don't care or even want to uand why they're doing what they're doing. Unjust evil... They're the type I hate the most. As things stand now, I don't have the ability to stop the Dark Triad from opening the gates of the underworld. I know my limits. Therefore..."

  Nacht stared at Alex and said seriously.

  "I would he power of the Magic Emperor."

  "WHAT!!" Everyone collectively gasped.

  "Huh? Me?" Alex poi himself and asked.

  Ign everyone's rea, Naodded his head and carried on.

  "I have heard that the New Magic Emperor is crazy strong and wields Anti-Magic... And now looking at you, I think people are still uimating you. I ot fathom your depths at all."

  "The Anti-Magic holds the greatest potential when it es to dealing with devils. So three days from now, on the advent of Qilphoth, we'll storm the Spade Kingdom and burn that damo the ground. This time, it's our turn to strike!"

  Nacht decred and asked everyoo prepare themselves.

  Alex pted the sario and looked at Yuno. "Yuno, I apologize to you. I pn to train you first but it seems things are more serious than I presume."

  Yuno shook his head and replied. "It is alright. I will train myself. After the st fight, I uand in which dire I have to go."

  "Good." Alex smiled and g Nacht. "Hey, Vice Captain you go and train Yuno. If my Anti-Magic has the highest potential then Yuno's Star Magi pose a huge threat to the Devils too."

  "Hmm... Star Magic? I have never heard about it." Nacht seemed intrigued and rubbed his .

  Alex chuckled and said. "Star Magic is one of the special attributes passed down in the House Grinberryall."

  "House Grinberryall? Then he is..." Nacht was startled and looked at Yuno in shock.

  Alex nodded his head and looked at everyone, deg to tell the o all.

  "Yuno is actually the Prince of the Spade Kingdom and the rightful heir to the throne. He is the son of the te king who was killed by the Dark Triads. To protect him, the loyal servants of the Grinberryall family brought him to the Clover Kingdom."

  "WHAT?!!" Everyone collectively gasped again, this time even more shocked as they never anticipated that Yuno would turn out to be a Royal from the other kingdom.

  "Good. Then I will try to train this guy." Nacht agreed to train Yuno after he learhat.

  "Alright, everyone. Make your preparations. After three days, we will kill the Dark Triads and prevent them from opening the gate to the underworld." Alex stood up and addressed everyoh a solemn expression. "But just in case, prepare yourself for the worst."

  "Yes, Sir!" The Magic Squads Captains saluted and walked out of the room, their expressions a little heavy.

  As the room emptied of people, Alex stepped forward, halting Nacht with a sharp gesture before he could whisk Yuno away. Nacht raised a brow in irritation, but Alex's pierg gaze silenced any protests.

  "Yuno," Alex began, his voice steady but ced with a somber weight, "there's something I o say."

  Yuno turned, sensing the gravity of the moment. Julius, who had been quietly, stiffened. A sudden unease crept over his face, his lips parting slightly as if realizing something dreadful.

  Alex pced a firm hand on Yuno's shoulder. His smile held an uncharacteristic mixture of affe and finality. "Yuno, the time has e for both of us to fulfill the promise we made. It's time to take revenge."

  Yuno's eyes widehe shock rippling through him like a sudden gust. "Alex... what do you mean?"

  Without hesitation, Alex's hand tightened on Yuno's shoulder. "If I don't make it back, you will carry the torch. You will bee the Magic Emperor, no matter what happens."

  "ALEX!" Yuno's voice cracked, disbelief flooding every sylble as he reached for his brother.

  Alex shook his head firmly, his eyes glinting with both resolve and a deep sadness. "Yuno. No. Listen to me. This isn't up for debate. I've searched for five years. Five long years sc every er of this world, every aext, every hidden fragment of lore. The entrao the Underworld is finally within read this... this is my fight. It always has been."

  Nacht's usual calm shattered like gss.

  "Are you insane?!" His voice echoed across the room, sharp and biting. He stepped forward, his fists g. "This isn't a game, Alex! You're talking about walking into the Underworld alone! Against every devil? You'll die!"

  "Maybe." Alex's reply was as cold as the edge of a bde. "Or maybe I'll do what should have been done long ago—end this nightmare ond for all."

  Julius, who had been silently grappling with the revetion, finally spoke, his tone grave. "Alex, this is madness. Even with your power—no, especially with your power—you 't bear this weight alohere has to be another way!"

  Alex turo the Wizard King, his expression unwavering. "No, Julius. There isn't. The devils must be annihited. pletely. If we allow them to tiing, tless i lives will pay the price. I won't let that happen—not while I have the strength to ge it."

  Yuno's throat tightened as he tried to speak, but the words refused to e. Instead, his trembling hand reached for Alex, his brother. His family. Yet, as he met Alex's unfling gaze, his resolve shattered, and tears welled in his eyes. Yuno nodded relutly, his head dropping as if in surreo the iable.

  "Good." Alex's tone softened, a glimmer of warmth breaking through his stoic exterior. He ruffled Yuno's hair briefly, like they were boys again, sharing dreams beh the stars. "I'll make sure you won't have to carry this burden. I swear it."

  With that, he turned on his heel, his presence as resolute and anding as a force of nature. His footsteps echoed like the tolling of a bell, a stark reminder of the finality of his decision.

  Nacht ched his jaw, his usual pragmatism repced by a rare dispy of raw emotion.

  "This is reckless," He muttered, more to himself than anyone else. "Damned fool."

  Julius looked down, his hands trembling. He knew he couldn't stop Alex; the fire in the young man's soul burhtly.

  "May the gods protect you," He whispered under his breath.

  As the door swung shut behind Alex, the air in the room grew unbearably heavy. Yuno remained frozen iaring at where his brother had stood, tears silently streaking his face.

  "e back, Alex," He whispered. "You have to e back."

  But deep down, all three of them khat Alex's mission was a one-way journey—and his path to the Underworld would be drenched in blood, fury, and sacrifice.

  Alex walked onto the streets after leaving the Headquarters. He was very excited for the uping battle but on the surface, he showcased nothing but ess.

  Many people greeted him excitedly with children even calling him out happily.

  Alex smiled and waved his hand as he strode onwards on his way.

  Sigh!

  Standing in front of a huge window overlooking the rest of the kingdom, a tired sigh escaped from Julius's lips.

  'Now that Yami and William are gone, our military strength has taken a major hit. If not for Asta, which is still present, things would have go of hand.'

  Julius g Alex's retreating bad sighed again.

  'It seems you are carrying a huge burden on your shoulder Asta. You have ged the structure of this kingdom. The pce that had disappointed me so long, you make it lively with your presence. I wonder if the one filling your shoes ter will be able to maintain this peace...'

  Alex paid a visit to Mereoleona to meet his daughter. She was a copy of her mother but her eye color and potential, she had ied from her father.

  Alex and Mereoleona had named her Leone which means 'Young lioness.'

  He stayed at the Vermillion House for an hour or so, pying with his daughter and chatting about the raid with Mereoleona.

  After that, he decided to check up on the Bck Bulls.
