A few days passed by since Seeke completed his first mission, which resulted in him getting annoyed by the no magic twerp for three whole days since he went on a mission without telling him and got a lead.
In response for annoying the dark lord Sekke took a few more missions without telling them and in total had completed five whole missions out of which three were solo ones....well not technically but Finaral just acted as his transport.
And currently after a few weeks passed like that Sekke was watching Asta feeding the Yami's pet mana beasts.
"Is it really safe?" asked Noelle who was stany beside him.
"Does it look like that to you?" asked Sekke.
"...Nope. Shouldn't you help him?"
"Let him break his limits.....or bones." said Sekke as he looked at Asta getting chewed by the beast.
"How is your training getting along Noelle?" asked Sekke as he looked at the royal.
"I am doing good, and it was great that no one was there to nag me every time." said Noelle sarcastically.
"...Want me to stop helping you altogether?" asked Sekke as he looked intently at Noelle.
"Hmph, you cannot. I am royalty so you need to follow my-"
"You really wanna try me Noelle?" asked Sekke with a smile.
Noelle blushed from embarrasment as she tried to say something but suddenly Sekke pulled him towards himself.
"Wha-?!"
"Asta! Take something longer to feed them you idiot!!" yelled Sekke as he saw Asta who was thrown away by the beast.
"You alright Noelle?"
"Hmph...*whisper* Thanks." said Noelle as she looked from Sekke and looked at Asta.
"You are welcome." said Sekke whose senses were better because of his hunting practices in the past.
Noelle snorted and then went to look after Asta.
Secre who was in his pocket came out and sat on his shoulder.
"I am so glad that you are not a tsundere Secre." said Sekke as he scratched the bird's belly.
Secre just tilted her head as she didn't understand what the word that Sekke used meant and just shrugged it off.
Sekke was about to go out of the room but stopped as his eyes widened in surprise.
He moved his hand in front of Secre's eyes and said, "Don't look Secre and forget whatever you saw."
"Kyaa!!" screamed Noelle as she turned around with a blush on her cheeks.
"Captain Yami!! Magna-senpai!! Why are you two like that?!" yelled Asta as he saw Magna and Yami standing in front of him without any clothes.
"I am going to give you your first magic knight mission you brats." said Yami without caring about what Asta said.
"Hell yeah!! I finally get to do some Magic knight stuff!!!" yelled Asta.

"So....in short you two lost badly....no that word don't do justice to your appearce.... anyway you two lost in gambling against a mayor of a village and promised him to do a task for him to pay off your debt?" said Sekke.
"Ha Ha Ha Aren't you a smart one. Absolutely right." said Yami as he stood proudly without any clothes.
"Noelle whatever happens don't open your eyes." whispered Sekke as he covered her eyes as well.
"I don't need you tell me that." said Noelle.
"Oh Asta is stripping down too."
"Eh?!" yelled Noelle as her eyes shot open....only to see Asta still in his clothes.
" "I don't need you to tell me that" huh?" said Sekke as he imitated the silver haired tsundere who just blushed I'm response and looked away.
"Anyway Magna explain the mission to them, I need to break some limits." said Yami.
"The number of times you go I think that the thing breaking first would be the toilet." said Sekke as he looked at Yami who just yawned in response.

"Haha we got our first mission as well!!! Just you wait, I will catch upto you in no time!!!" said Asta.
"Dream on Asta, unlike me the mission you are doing is a non paying one." said Sekke as he smirked at the twerp.
"....Can you tell me again why all of us are here?" asked Noelle.
"...Well you guys are going to have your first mission tomorrow so I thought that you both could get some stress off before that and so here we are....playing snakes and ladders." said Sekke as he threw the die.
"Hmph, I am royalty. I won't get stress from something like this." said Noelle.
"It's fine, just think of me wanting to help my friends.....also pass some time. Ah, Asta got bit by a snake." said Sekke.
"Argh!!! I won't give up!!! I will climb all the ladders that come in my path and become the winner!!! Also thanks Sekke!!- said Asta.
"No need Asta no need." said Sekke as he gave the die to Noelle.
"Sekke, want to eat some nummies with me?!" said Charmy as she barged into the room.
"Hey Hey let's go fight." said Luck who came in as well.
"Oi! Have you seen Asta and Noelle-jou?" asked Magna.
"Wanna spend some time like friends usually do." muttered Gordon.
"Oi! Tell me more things that will make me looks good in front of my angel Marie!"
"Hey hey~ What are you three doing." asked a drunk Vanessa.
"Huh? This wasn't the toilet?" said Yami as he came in while scratching his head.
Sekke looked at the members of the black bull who just barged into his room.
'Well having a big room was going to result into this at some point anyway.' thought Sekke.
"Wanna join us?" asked Sekke.
The other members of the black bulls cane closer to the three of them and saw a board like thing made of Sekke's magic witch a small figurines of the three of them on top of the board.
"What is it? Some kind of spell?" asked Magna.
"Nah, it's a board game called snakes and ladders. Wanna try it?" asked Sekke.
"Huh? A new game.....alright let's bet and the winner takes all." declared Yami with a smirk on his face.
"""You just lost everything today!!!" yelled the three rookies as they were just ignored by their captain who already started placing bets.
"Well whatever....you will drown in despair.....and debt after losing against the dark lord anyways." said Sekke as he placed a coin as his bet.
That day all the black bulls stayed up quite late playing the new game that Sekke introduced and need less to say Magna and Yami were buck naked once again.
'....Even Vanessa is wearing more clothes than the two of them.' thought Sekke as he collected his earnings earned from the bets.
