Capítulo 48: Ki
"Although I laid my plans out carefully and had him walk into a trap," Patolli said.
"Yeah, I figured. You'd never take down that King of Hardnoses with stuff like this." They then again, began to engage in close combat.
"Dark Magic: Dark Cloak Lightless Slash!" Yami's katana turned pitch black. He then released it with a slash that flew at great speed toward Patolli.
All the light shards were destroyed when coming into contact with Yami's attack. Just barely was Patolli able to dodge. Even if he dodged, he wasn't able to come out unscathed.
Patolli's eyes went wide when blood seeped from the from on his cheek.
"Master Licht!" Valtos shouted seeing the wound on his face.
"Trap, eh? I'm sure you wouldn't have been able to win without doing something underhanded." Yami said in a cold stone.
"Asta wasn't Licht going to say we used some underhanded to injure Sally? But he used a trap to take out Fuegoleon. Truly scum to use underhanded tactics." Madara said loud enough for everyone to hear.
Valtos and Licht grit their teeth hearing his words. No matter how much they denied it, they knew it was true.
"How dare you!" Valtos shouted to the three standing in front of him.
"This time. Come right at me. I'll show you the true power of a Magic Knight Captain!" Yami said pointing his sword at Patolli.
"Brats, were you watching that?" Yami said without turning to look at them.
"Y-Yes, sir!" Asta responded with stars in his eyes.
"Good. Now try the same thing." Yami said in his nonchalant tone.
"Yes, sir! Wait... Like I could actually do that!" Asta shouted filled with dread.
Madara wasn't paying attention to their conversation because his eyes were glued on Patolli.
"Light Recovery Magic: Healing Light Particles." Beads of light surrounded Patolli and started to heal his wound.
"He can use recovery magic, too?" Asta asked in disbelief.
"I haven't seen it in person much, but apparently, guys loved by mana can use all sorts of magic. It's especially rare for an attack-type-" Yami said before being cut off by Madaras' thoughts.
'Getting strong Pokemon vibes. First, it was Sally saying she had to catch us, now Yami is talking about attack types.'
Madara saw Patolli cast another furry of light shards. Madara wished he would use another attack. He then started to listen to what Yami was saying.
"The reason I can see his attack is because of something called "ki" from back in my homeland," Yami said while slicing through light shards.
"Ki? Not mana?" Asta asked confused.
'Isn't this technique kind of useless to me because I have the Sharingan? But why would I pass up the opportunity to not learn it?'
"Yeah. People looking at you, the sound of their breathing, their smell, the motions of their muscles, the vague sense that they're there... Ki is the blanket term for all of the different types of life energy the human body emits. I read that ki and predicted his next, then made mine. You've done that before, haven't you?" Yami asked Asta making him think back to the zombie invasion.
"When I do it, I combine it with magic and muscle and fight that way. I guess it's like being a magic swordsman or something." Yami said while focusing on slicing the shards.
"Muscles! So that's why your necks so thick Captain Yami!" Asta said.
"Like you can talk, kid," Yami said.
'Muscles?' Madara then looked at his arm. It looked like Yami's as a teenager, but better.

"I know this is impertinent of me, but would you allow me to assist you?" Valtos asked with the utmost respect for Patolli.
Patolli hen turned with a smile and said, "Thank you, Valtos. You're always so helpful. In that case, that boy... Would you capture him? And that boy's grimoire, could you get it for me?" Patolli asked looking at Madara and Asta.
"An easy task," Valtos said as he created a purple orb of magic atop of his hand.

'Ki... shouldn't be hard, right?' Madara thought with his eyes closed. He started to breathe in... breath out. Feeling everything around him, the air, the earth, the life on earth. He felt everything around him.
"Why is he just standing there?" Asta asked watching Madara.
"He's doing what I told him!" Yami said as he gripped Asta's head.
Madara felt his entire synchronize trying to utilize ki. He felt this tingling feeling all over that faded.
"Hmph!" Madara made a single sound, as his eyes shot open to slice through the magic orb coming at him through a portal.
"To think he would be able to do it. What a freak." Yami said looking at Madara like he was some kind of monster.
"Yami I'll handle Licht for now. Asta you handle ghost face." Madara said as he began to walk toward Patolli.
As Madara was walking toward Patolli, he began to release his mana. His mana began to climb and climb almost like it wouldn't stop.
Large craters formed around Madara releasing that much mana made the rocks around them crumble. On the outside, Yami looked indifferent, but on the inside, he couldn't help but be amazed.
Someone possessing that amount of mana and not even being a royal was astonishing. Also, Yami still felt as if that wasn't his full power.
"That's impossible!" Patolli yelled sensing how much mana Madara had.
"M-M-M-Master Licht... What is he?" Valtos asked falling to his knees feeling the pressure Madaras' mana was giving off.
"Oi, Captain. What happening?" Asta asked after seeing Valtos fall.
"You don't feel that?" Yami asked forgetting Asta had no mana not could he sense it.
"I don't have mana..." Asta said with a blank face.
"Oh, right. you can't sense mana. Madara. He might truly be a monster from what I'm sensing." Yami said taking a long drag on his cigarette.

"Hmm? Is that... Madara?" Noelle and Gauche asked themselves.

Patolli grit his teeth, as he vanishes in yellow light. Madara on the other hand could see Patolli. It was like he was moving in slow motion. He could see everything he was doing and was going to do.
Madara jumps just above Patolli with his unsheathed sword, twisting his body, he cut Patolli a few times in that spinning motion.
To Asta and Valtos, it looked like they shifting through reality. But to Yami, he could barely see them because of how fast they were moving.
Patolli ended up a few meters in front of Yami and Madara ended up a few meters away from Valtos. When Valtos recovered and saw the outcome, he almost had a heart attack.
He saw a few cut marks on his body. Blood running down his arm and dripping onto the ground.
"M-Master Licht!" Valtos was able to run to him, but he remembered what Patolli told him to do. Capture the boy and his grimoire.
Valtos then stepped through a portal and appeared meters away from Madara. Patolli was looking at the blood drip from his fingertips and onto the ground.
'I never would have thought...' Patolli thought before regaining his senses.
"Light Recovery Magic: Healing Ray Of Light." Instantly Patolli's injuries were healed.
While Patolli and Madara were having a stare-off, Asta was learning to use ki. He eventually got the grasp of it and sent Valtos attack back at him. Patolli saw this and his killing intent started to leak out of him.
"I cannot allow people like you to hurt my comrades ever again!" Patolli said with a serious face and tone. Since Yami and Asta were close to him, they back up to gain some distance.
"What's your deal? You're the ones who started this!" Asta said as a bright light surrounded Patolli and lit up most of the cave.
"The path this spell traces resembles the motions of a whip. Can you predict its movements?" Patolli said with a long whip made of light moving around him.
"It was said that whips were used to punish criminals, once upon a time. That makes it a perfect fit for you three!" Patolli said ready to swing his whip.
'...'
"Light Creation Magic: Light Whip of Judgment!"
