Ragon: Asta stop your stupid training and come help me.
It's afternoon of a winter season, asta who is training in the backyard of his house gives him a nod of approval before going back to his training. It's been 4 years since asta came to shine wheel city, he has just became 15 and gained the rights to own property. He bought a two floored house adjacent to workshop with the money he got by selling his works and creating grimoires for some mages. He is currently training in his backyard, weights on his arms,legs and waist and the demon slasher in his hand.
Asta: Will be there. *Returns the demon slasher to the grimoire* I remember this was the age I got my grimoire previous time, didn't even know how to channel anti-magic.
Asta wears a coat and his signature headband with the blackbulls symbol, the grimoire is strapped to his waist.
Asta: Thank God I didn't stop growing this time around. *Looks at himself in the mirror* I won't let yuno insult me about my height this time.
Asta walks to the workshop and enters, he sees ragon sitting in the counter smoking his pipe.
Asta: How many times have I told you to stop smoking master.
Ragon: I can do whatever I want, I am not a child... We got a big order.
Asta: Huh? How big are we talking about?*walks to the side takes out a bunch of cookies from a jar*
Ragon: We need to create a weapon that can stop a vampire's regeneration.
Asta: Huh? That's nothing big, I could make hundred like those in a day. Also how do you identify a vampire anyway? Do they burn in sunlight or something?
Ragon: Nah, the vampires lose their regeneration and vampire powers in sunlight, it doesn't burn them or anything, also don't remember those millenium old tales, vampires are a civilised race these days.
Asta: then why the weapon?
Asta sits beside Ragon and snatches his pipe away.
Ragon: HEY.... *Accepts defeat* Apparently there is vampire on loose who ran away with a member of a vampire count's family as hostage. A bounty hunter group took on a request to hunt him.
Asta: I see. Where and when?
Ragon: They will be here this evening, apparently the vampire came towards our town, so we are going on a curfew.
Asta: Seriously? I was supposed to return the book today. Teacher gonna skin me alive.
Ragon: She ain't gonna **** to her favourite student, you literally have graduated two months ago with full marks.
Asta: Ye ye Whatever, give me the request scroll.
Asta takes a request scroll from Ragon and goes to the forge, the scroll says a bundle of 100 silver tipped arrows and a pair lightning conducting knife alongside steel balls? With combustion and bleeding rune added.
Asta: Quite a wierd order to say the least, what do you even need steel balls for? Maybe they got one of those dwarven weapon called guns. ( Dwarfs are fans of America I say )
Asta got to work and begins quickly creating things, he had changed the conversion specific runes on his grimoire, he can now turn mana into anti-mana and vise versa.(10 points of mana= 1 point of anti-mana, 1 point of anti mana= 8 points of mana)
Using wind magic, he can fuel the furnace to his desire and the workshop has been severely transformed with asta's advancement into a advanced runesmith.
Within 5 hours, asta had completed the order,so he decided to go and help slio with his grimoire, slio lives in multi room building with hundreds of rooms.
Asta: I hope he is there or I would have to search the whole city again. *Enters inside* Hello there mr.fazu.
A thin man with glasses in sitting at the table with a bunch of papers in hand.
Fazu: Ah asta, here for slio again? He should be in his room.
Asta: Thanks.
Asta walks to slio's room which is on the top floor. He opens the door.
Asta: Hey slio I a-..
The room is in shambles with the window broken, there are traces of scuffled and some residual mana in the air.
Asta: This smell.... A devil's minion.
Asta activates his mana sense and quickly senses a figure in the back of the room. He quickly dashes and finds Slio laying down on the ground with his neck and arms bleeding while his spirit tries to help him.
Asta: SLIO *quickly comes closer* Some type of curse.
Asta quickly releases a pulse of anti-magic from his hand and removes the curse and then help the spirit to heal slio.
Slio: Urgh.. where am I? *Opens his eyes slightly* Asta?
Asta: You are safe now, what happened?
Slio: some guy was in my room when I came, he had a girl about our age tied up in chains and ropes, he lunges at me and attacks me with something like blood,the girl broke free at that time, rest I don't know.
Asta: I see. Rest well , I will deal with him.
Asta comes closer to the broken window and looks outside, he activates his grimoire and prepares himself.
Asta: I spent 4 years training myself more compared to my previous self. *A two black wings comes out of his back while the demon slasher comes out of the grimoire* I will not spare a single person who hurts my friends.
He has created wings out anti-mana and with a flap of them he flew into the sky. He infuses anti-mana into his eyes and next second his vision changes completely.(Heat vision but only for mana, so a vision version of mana sense.) He senses a area of high concentration of magic with the same sticky mana of a devil's minion.
???: Just give up already, you know damn well you can't win. If you have not been drugged then I wouldn't dare fight you but.. *cracks his knuckles* You can't even fight me at half your power and I also got this thing. *Points to his pendant which seems to have eye in it*
???: I would rather die than become a sacrifice for your greed.
???: then di- *ducks quickly* You persistent bastards .
From the side a bunch of people with cloaks and hats come, they look at the bulky vampire with excitement and hunger.
???: asiris trvolis, just accept your death and surrender and we might make it painless.
Asiris: Surrender? To you pathetic humans? I will j- urgh.
With a straight kick to the face , the vampire flew straight into a nearby street and crashed onto the road.
???: I don't get why you guys are still trying to talk? We are supposed to kill him aren't we?
???: *facepalms* How many times have I told you to stop before I am done luck?
Luck: come on jerry it's not like he was gonna surrender anyway.* Lightning crackling around his body* Let's get done with it.
???: Luck? ' i have heard that name but I can't seem to remember where'
Luck: *looks at the vampire girl panting* 'her face.. I have seen her before but where?' welp whatever.
Luck left With a swift dash to the vampire who just stood up, the vampire brings out his grimoire and makes chains of blood, luck weaves through them while laughing like a maniac and hits them straight in the chest.
Luck: Storm magic: lightning mark.
A mark appear on the vampire's chest as he flew away. Just as he smashed into a wall a bunch of metal orbs were thrown towards him, he dodges and the orbs fall to the ground.
Asiris: Was that supposed to hit me? now watch as I-
The orbs explode into a lighting sparks and gets attracted towards asiris due to the mark, making him take the full force of the attack.
