Wizard King was standing in front of us. Seeing as the mages are on guard it seems the wizard king isn't the enemy's leader. When the enemy mages left the capital they said " Remember it well Magic knights for we are the eye of the midnight sun the ones who will destroy the Clover kingdom". It would be weird for the wizard king to be the bad guy when he has all the power he would need.
The enemies attacked the wizard king saying "How did you find us". The wizard king moved so fast that he stood in the middle of two of them and created a sphere in both hands and hit them with the sphere. "I killed them after all You should be prepared to die when you kill someone ". Damn, he stole my dialogue anyways he proceeds to say " I can't capture all of you in one go so I will at least try to capture one". Everyone started attacking the wizard king but he dodged them like it was nothing. He then said "Time-binding magic chronostasis" and every enemy was trapped in a sphere in which time had stopped.
He then greeted me and Asta. I said to him "Since you fought them I guess you are their enemy so I can tell you about my suspicions right? " Asta asked me " he is the wizard king so why would you suspect him? Are you-". "You think there are traitors in the magic knight ranks aren't you," said the wizard king. Asta was surprised before he could say anything I replied yes. The wizard king said, " I think so as well because there is a barrier surrounding the capital which blocks anyone from entering with spatial magic so it must have been someone from the inside. "
Before Asta tried to speak wizard king looked at the prisoners and showed them a stone tablet containing some stones engraved in them and asked the prisoners "What do you plan to use the stone tablet for? And why are some spots engraved with stones and some are not? Although you can't really answer these questions inside my spell ". The wizard king suddenly looked in the direction of the stone tablet. I could barely feel it too it was a strong sense of mana.
A bright light came from that area and took the prisoners and the stone tablet. I couldn't react to the attack but I felt some mana of light magic so I copied it along with time magic. Although it was risky and I almost lost my life it was worth it as I gained 2 magics that could defeat a monster of tier 3 advanced rank by itself.
After a message from some mage who used communication magic to contact the wizard king the wizard king used his time magic to accelerate time and bring us there. All the magic knights who were present were near the healing ward. It seems Captain Fuegoleon has entered a stage of comatose but at least Leopold is fine. Leopold is still getting healed but it was nothing serious.
All the magic knights returned to their bases. when the wizard king brought us back Klaus jumped at Asta asking him if he was alright and Mimosa jumped on me asking if I was alright but then backed away blushing. When the Wizard King was explaining the situation Leopold woke up half-injured saying that he will get stronger, far stronger than his brother and he will become the wizard king and surpass Asta and me ". I was going to say bring it on but Asts just asked him " that's fine by me but what's your name".
They had a bit of a quarrel and I was ashamed to speak so I left with Klaus, Yuno and Mimosa. I heard Yuno defeated one of the attackers. Oh yeah, Asta got promoted to rank 3 junior magic knight while I and Yuno were promoted to rank 2 junior magic knight.
