Kapitel 29: #28 Meeting Supreme Stalker

"*cough* sorry to break the atmosphere but how are you doing" Klaus asked but I just ignored him.

" How are you guys, and how's your injury!" I smile and asked Mimosa who shyly turned away seeing me. Aww- She's so cute, acting all shy like that. I bet that's the type of girl that guys like to go for. The shy and feminine type of girl..

"Mimosa, what's wrong?" Noelle asked.

"Noelle, what should I do... The truth is... Every time I see Asta, I get this longing feeling my heart... Ever since that day, I haven't been able to get him off my mind. Do you know what's happened to me?" Mimosa put her hands on her face to cool down the hot blush that plastered across her cheeks.

There was a short moment of silence before Noelle could finally comprehend Mimosa's words.

"WHAAAT?!" Noelle freaked out.

"WHY HIM?! Of all people, why that good looking, smart yet dumb at the same time, probably a womanizer guy?!" Noelle was so shocked that she couldn't retain her usual graceful royalty conduct.

"Well, I like that he's knowledgable and can make me feel secure. You remember that day when he saved my life in the dungeon, Noelle? His actions make me feel like there's someone behind my back protecting me. Or at least something like that..." Mimosa murmured at the last sentence.

"Oh come on! He's all looks!" Noelle's eyes were spinning as she tried to find an undesirable trait of Asta. 'Wait, why am I going out of my way like this to dissuade her? No way... I'm not like that...' Noelle thought to herself.

Then Mimosa laughs a bit. "I find these things endearing. And the way Asta fight so awesomely with his handsome looks, also the dominating aura around Asta's body... Could this be..." Then Mimosa moan in embarrassment. (A moan that saying 'this can't be')

"What on earth are they doing." Klaus lifted one of his eyebrows in confusion.

Robin and I were looking at the two girls screaming their heads off like they're having an existential crisis.

Then we were lead by Klaus. "Anyway, I'm sure it's supposed to be here..." Klaus looked around for the place that we were supposed to meet the magic emperor.

"I guess there are things even you don't know, four-eyes " I said with a smirk. other just smiles when they heard that nickname again.

"Indeed, there are" Klaus said. Robin, Mimosa and Yuno, whose at the back, think of something.

'He's apparently content with being called "four-eyes" now' - Yuno.

'He's much nicer to Asta now' - Mimosa.

"This way. What's good young knights." The Magic Emperor waved at us and smiled.

There was a short moment of silence before Klaus quickly knelt down. "I...I never imagined that you'd be the one to..." Klaus nervously stuttered.

"Who is this flamboyant guy?" I asked in a playful tone

"YOU DAMNED FOOL! THE MAN IN FRONT OF YOU IS THE MAGIC EMPEROR: HIS MAJESTY JULIUS NOVA CHRONO!" Klaus shouted at me while the Magic Emperor AKA Julius nonchalantly chuckled.

~After giving our report on the dungeon~

"Good job on finding this. This magic is probably the most important thing from the dungeon." Julius praised as he looked at Yuno's grimoire which had glyphs inscribed in it.

"The most important?! Amazing!" Yuno's eyes sparkled as he looked at Julius with respect.

"You can read it?" Yuno asked. "A little," Julius replied.

"Hey, can you show me what this magic looks like? Please?" Julius' eyes lit up in anticipation.

"I think I used it once in the dungeon, but... I haven't been able to use it... Forgive me..." Yuno explained in a serious tone.

"Huh?! Is that so... That's too bad..." Julius let out a small tear of disappointment.

~~Julius' POV~~

Wind Spirit Silph, one of the 4 elements has chosen him in this generation? I looked at the black-haired handsome boy with the four-leaf clover grimoire.

"All I can say right now is that this magic will grow along with you and one day become something amazing. So treat it right." I smiled as I handed over the grimoire back to him.

Interesting... Before I could make my way to him, another boy stood in front of me and opened his grimoire. "Emperor! There are also some unknown words in my grimoire!"

"This is... totally unreadable. I've never seen such a writing system before." I squinted my eyes as I tried to read the words on the grimoire.

"This is what it produces!" He took out a sword from his grimoire.

"Ohh! This is your 2nd anti-magic sword right?! Can I hold it?!" I looked at the sword in amazement.

"Be my guest!" He handed it over to me. "Whoa! It's heavy!" My arms fell to the ground due to how heavy the sword was.

"I'm surprised you're able to swing this thing around--" My sentence was cut short by realizing that the sword was absorbing my magic powers. I see...

"Here, you can have it back. This sword can only be handled by you since you have no magic powers." I smiled at the white-haired boy named Asta. He's the one that managed to discover my true identity at the black market.

~~Asta's POV~~

He was very surprised and amazed by my Anti-magic. It felt good to hear that coming from the person who can control the freaking time.

"That aside, you guys did some fine work out there! I thank you on behalf of the kingdom."

"Uhm, c-could I ask you something?" Robin fidgeted around.

"What is it?" Julius slightly tilted his head. "' What do I need to do to become the Magic Emperor?" Robin and Yuno asked in unison.

"Oh, so you guys are aiming to become the emperor?! Well, that's the way a true knight should be!" Julius laughed happily and looks toward me.

"I wanted to become the world's strongest magic knight" I said.

"I see, Your dream is the hardest among all of them. you didn't plan to become a Wizard king?" He ask. And I move my head saying "nope."

"I can't believe you guys would be so tactless to ask that of the current emperor! Listen, the emperor is someone with a benevolent heart that has the trust of the citizens.." Klaus explained as he pushed up his glasses.

"That's not true. It's should be results." I corrected Klaus. Their eyes widen and the Wizard King's mouth went open then smile. Robin and Yuno look over me and I look away.

"Yeah, it's merit." The Wizard King said.

"You can't protect others with pride, and the trust of others comes with merit. There is only one thing people want from the Wizard King... Merit that proves they are the best. Gain merit. Continuously gaining merit is everything. Anyone who can't do that can never stand at the top." Julius stated with a lot of charisma "and to become the strongest you have to defeat and prove to everyone that no is better than you"

Robin and Yuno trembled at his strong words and clenched their fists.

"Bring it on!" we said in unison.

'Your newbies have very determined eyes, William, Yami' Julius thought

"'' That was what I was hoping to hear!" They both smirked.

"Now then! I've gathered the members that have gathered the most stars here today for the medal presentation! And I'd like you guys to participate too!" Julius brightly smiled.

"What?" Yuno and others were taken by surprise.

"So, do you think... You'll be able to produce more results than these guys?" Julius looked back at us with anticipation.

He opened the door behind him and I saw many captains and their squad members.
