Blasting through the giant hole that the captains had made in the metal army, the flying bull shot forwards leaving the three captains behind as they flew towards the airborne Triumph.
"Listen up everyone!" Asta's voice resonated out from within the ship.
"I know that you're all scared. Hell, we're fighting wizard kings, it'd be weirder if you weren't. But right now we don't have time to let that affect us! In these next few moments, the lives of our captains, our friends, our family and every other person in the kingdom depends on us! So what we're not gonna do is fail them!"
"We'll win this! Not because we have to! Not because we want to! We'll win this because its our duty! We'll win this because we're MAGIC KNIGHTS!!"
"""YEAAAHHH!!!"""
"Heh." Hearing the cheers from the inside, even Grim couldn't help but feel a bit excited from the speech.
A king needs to be able to inspire confidence in those around him.
But for what comes next, a king isn't needed.
Steadily rising to his feet, the hue from [Breath of the Beast] went active as he stared down the barrier protected Triumph up ahead.
'So that's what it looks like up close.'
"Hey Grim." Asta's called out from behind him.
Walking up with Yuno by his side, the three stared at the flying stadium in the distance.
"This is it." Yuno said.
"Mmm." Asta nodded and smiled. "We'll definitely win this."
"Of course." Grim smirked."I wasn't planning on losing."
Standing behind the trio, Mereoleona wasn't able to hide the smile on her face as they felt the ship shake from the ludicrous amounts of magical energy from the rest of the magic knights pouring itself into the flying Bull's cannons.
"FIRE!!!" A voice yelled out.
*BOOM!!*
*BOOM!!*
*BOOM!!*
Crossing through the night sky and leaving different coloured trails behind in their wake. The barrier protecting the outer layer of the Triumph was bombarded with the combined power of all the magic knights on board.
Adding his own attack into the mix, Grim slashed forward with both swords.
Not wanting to fall far behind, Asta and Yuno also jumped in.
[Breath of the Beast: Ninth Form - Extending Bendy Slash]
[Wind Magic: Crescent Kamaitachi]
[Anti Magic: Demon Dweller Sword - Black Slash]
*SWOOSH!!*
*SWOOSH!!*
*SWOOSH!!*
"Not on my watch you damn brats!"
'What?!'
"Fire!"
Before the attacks could finish landing, a weird purple construct manifested itself in front of the barrier. Sitting atop the giant construct, a frazzled looking Jester aimed his finger at Grim's figure. And with a huge smile on his face, the face of the construct began glowing with a malicious red colour.
"Ah shit."
*BOOOOM!!*
Shooting out from the face of the construct was a massive beam of energy that completely engulfed their attacks before slamming into the Flying Bull.
---
-Flying Bull Interior-
"What the hell was that!!"
"W-W-WIZARD KING!!!"
"""WHAT?!!"""
Turning their heads to the front, the rest of the magic knights finally saw Jester and the construct preparing for another blast.
"Damn."
---
-Outside-
"NEXT ONES FOR YOU GRIM!"
Listening to Jester's taunts, Grim was about to take a step forward when he suddenly felt a hand hold onto his shoulder.
"Mereoleona?"
"Let your allies handle this one." She smiled.
Moments later, even more cannons started appearing all over the flying bull.
"Tch, get the hell out of the way already."
Making his way up top, Gauche's hair blew in the breeze as he waited for the cannons to fire again.
[Mirror Magic: Large Reflect Refrain]
Spawning out a large quantity of mirrors, the beams shooting out from the flying bull started bouncing off of the mirrors in a diagonal fashion quickly increasing in speed and lethality.
Not expecting the mirrors nor the speed of the attack to suddenly increase and definitely not to the level that it did, Jester was momentarily too stunned to respond in time.
"Idiot." Gauche smirked.
*BAAAANG!!*
Slamming into the face of the construct and pushing back against it, the magic knights pushed even more of their magical energy into the beam until-
*CRACK*
It pierced it.
*BOOOOM!!!*
"GOOO!!"
Punching through the face of the construct, Henry didn't waste anytime celebrating as he hit the accelerator and flew the Flying Bull through the newly created hole in the damaged construct. Luckily for him, the hole was big enough for them to pass through.
"See." Mereoleona sniggered.
"Its not over yet."
"What?"
Not understanding what he meant by that, it was only once the two glowing green doors shimmered themselves into existence ahead of the Flying Bull that she understood.
"How in the-"
Walking out of the door and floating in the distance, both Edward and Princia stood before the group ready for interception.
"FINRAAL!!" Someone yelled.
"ON IT!" He yelled back thrusting his right hand forward and opening his grimoire.
[Spatial Magic: Fallen Angel Gate]
Opening up a huge portal in front of the ship, the flying bull charged straight through and appeared behind the unsuspecting wizard king duo.
"What the-" "How in the-"
"GET BACK HEREEEE!!" Letting out an ear piercing scream, Jester's eyes locked onto Grim's vanishing back.
Feeling the small cut on his forehead throb, like a shark that had just smelt blood he chased the ship down unwilling to let the one who had wounded him escape for a second time.
Not paying any attention to the screaming Jester coming from behind, Grim looked at the barrier then back at Asta.
"You're up."
*Nods*
Calling the [Demon Slayer Sword] out and clenching at its hilt, he took in a deep breath as black anti-magic started spreading throughout his body.
[Anti Magic: Demon-Slayer Sword: Black Divider]
Entering directly into his [Black Asta] form and forming a huge [Black Divider], he aimed the tip at the barrier.
*THUD*
*THUD*
Landing on the deck behind them, both Princia and Edward stared at the trio.
"Grim." Princia acknowledged upon seeing him again.
Hearing his name being called, Grim half turned.
"Sorry Princy, but I'm not your opponent this time."
Spreading out beneath the duo, before either had the time to react, both Zora and a sizable magic circle formed appeared.
"Have fun." He waved as the teamwork of Zora, Secre and Finral sent the two wizard kings away to unknown locations.
