03x23 - Return

[bunniefuu]

In Clover Kingdom

where magic determines everything,

the only boy who cannot use magic

is called Asta.

With hard work and determination,
he joins the Magic Knights.

Despite being wounded and bruised,
he is still determined

to keep fighting towards his goal
with all his might.

Peasants or nobles,

poor or rich,

anyone in this world can shine.

He's working hard to prove that

and to become the Magic Emperor.

After cleaning up the mess
at Royal Capital,

Asta and the rest of Black Bull members

decided to return to their base.

Guys, it's been a while
since we went home.

-Hooray!
-This is tasty!

So many things have happened.

It feels like we haven't been back
for a long time.

That's right.

After I get back, I'll take it easy and
train up my muscles to my heart's content.

How is that taking it easy?

We will be there soon.

All right, we are here!

Henry, hurry up and turn this thing
back into our hideout!

Henry?

What is it?

Do you have constipation?

I've forgotten what the base looked like.

-What?
-What?

This is hilarious.

Hey! How can the guy who lives there
the longest forget it?

Firstly, once we get in,
there is the hall.

Then behind it is…

Asta, tell him what it is.

What? I don't know.

It was the display area
for Marie merchandise.

It was huge food storage where I put
various ingredients I've collected.

No, there was a sauna.

Were there rooms like that?

But there might be such rooms.

But the layout of the base
changes a lot anyway.

-I don't remember it either.
-I forgot!

That's because you guys
always wreck the place up.

I'm grateful that you repaired it.

But you were the one who changed
the layout as you like.

I often had to use Spatial Magic
to help Captain Yami find the toilet.

You should have
discussed it with us first.

I'm sorry.

Hold on.

How about we take this opportunity
and tell Henry all of our requests.

That way, the base can be more comfortable
than before. What do you think?

Asta, that is a nice idea.

-Agree!
-Me too.

Change it to a place that is more
suitable for drinking. That'd be great.

It should be "for living."

This is a good opportunity
for us to be closer.

It doesn't hurt to try it out.

-All right!
-All right!

Henry, please help.

Okay, I'll handle it.

Here, take this.

Put down your requests.

Here, Nero and Zora have to write too.

Gosh, what a nosy Shorty.

He looks very troubled.

You guys must have written
ridiculous requests.

I hope the base can be moved
next to the church Marie is living in.

Gauche, that way, we can meet every day.

Marie, we will be neighbors soon.

I want to be in the same room
as everyone else

for hours a day and days a year.

I'm shy. I hope others
won't be able to see me.

I hope there are folding screens
all over the rooms

and the rooms are dark.

My goal is to eat ten meals a day!

Aren't you eating all the time already?

Please add a design that can
let me drink to my heart's content.

What a bunch of idiots.

I hope to stay in a room next to Magna's.

That way, no matter what
he is doing in the next room,

I can use my magic
and find out all about it.

I can prank him all the time!

I'll whack you!

You can't!

You prick! What did you say?
Stop right there!

The room next door?

If Nero and I have separate bedrooms,
you can't wake me up then.

I pecked you because your snoring
was too loud.

Come to think of it,

Asta and Nero were staying
in the same room.

But Nero was a bird back then.

She just perched on the windowsill!

By the way, I don't care about this.

It seems Henry needs more time.

Of course.

If you have some free time, come with me.

What is this?

Are we going to look for bugs
to k*ll time?

Have you forgotten that
because of the mess,

my adorable pets have run off?

Let's get them back before
they wreak havoc outside.

I totally forgot about them!

Anyway, this is a trivial matter.

They are very close to me,
their caretaker.

Don't underestimate the demon beasts.

The forest is like their backyard.

Also, in the last few days,
they have returned to their wild nature.

If you get carried away,
you will get k*lled.

No, if so,

how can you ask me to catch them
with this equipment?

Stop whining. Just go!

Yes, sir!

There are three demon beasts.

If you guys have some free time too,
split up and catch them.

-Yes, sir!
-Yes, sir!

We shall execute your order!

It'll be so fun fighting
those demon beasts!

If you hurt my precious pets,

I'll k*ll you.

Hey, stop it!

I'm busy talking to Marie's photo.

Let's find the beasts together.

I look forward to working together.

Hey, let me go and listen to me!

Noelle, Nero,

let's form a junior team
and look for them together.

-Well, if you insist…
-Well, if you insist…

Hey, where is Zora?

How troublesome.

I'm not doing this.

Okay, I'll penalize the masked droopy-eyed
kid who sneaks away later.

There is something I need to work on.

Guys, I'm relying on you.

Hey, demon beasts!
Come out wherever you are.

You are adorable, aren't you?

Something must be wrong
if you can find them like that!

Besides, Captain Yami also said the beasts
have returned to their wild nature.

We have to be careful.

But even so, they should remember
that I took care of them before.

They'll warm up to me!

I mean, Nero, you were basically

like my pet when you were a bird, right?

Don't be rude.

I was just protecting your grimoire.

-You were actually my pet.
-That hurts!

There's a saying, "Only people
who are close with one another fight."

I don't really care about that.

I came along
because I didn't have a choice.

I think I can feel the ki.

I don't care about what
happens between you--

-Is it from over there?
-What?

All right!

These are anti-birds!

Why are they here?

-It hurts!
-You're too noisy and it upsets them.

It hurts!

-I'll look for them from above.
-It hurts!

Wait!

She abandoned him.

It seems like they fight
because they don't like each other.

Is it just the two of us now?

This forest is creepy.

Magna, are you scared?

What? You prick!

Stop talking nonsense. Come over here!

Hey, I said come over here.

I know that prick too well.

He must be hiding and waiting
to jump on me to scare me.

I won't be scared.
I'll teach him a lesson.

Is it over there?

Do you think old tricks will work on me?

Scaring you with electric current
has been successful.

I'm going to k*ll you!

Can you do it though?

Do your worst.

No one will bother us here.
We can fight however we want.

Are you sure you won't regret this?

Your power is a lot weaker than mine now.

I'll make you understand

just how powerful I am now.

I became incredibly strong after
fighting you when you were an elf!

Me too then.

My magic power is calling me.

It's been a while since I got serious.

I might overdo it when I'm overexcited.

Exactly what I need.

What is that sound?

I think Magna and Luck

are revisiting their fiery friendship!

Forget that.

Hey, how long are you going to keep
hiding behind me?

Don't look at me. I'm shy!

-You shouldn't have made me come then.
-But I need a wall for hiding.

Who do you call a wall?

We don't know
when the demon beasts will att*ck us.

This forest is creepy and scary.

-Gordon's face is the scariest.
-What?

Don't look at me. I'm shy.

You show up at last.

I want to go back and see Marie
as soon as possible,

so I'm going capture all of you now.

You two, get ready!

What are you doing?

-They popped out all of a sudden.
-Stop it, you two!

-It's extra scary!
-Seriously?

-What are you doing?
-Me too. I'm not mentally prepared.

I was stupid to think I could rely on you.

Anyway, just let go!
Or else, I can't capture them!

Delicious!

When looking for the beasts,

it's reasonable to want
to eat red bean buns.

It's reasonable to want to drink.

Finral, use your Spatial Magic
to get me another bottle of wine.

Hey, we should start looking
for the demon beasts.

Don't be so rigid.
Let's drink, you goody-two-shoes.

Try a red bean bun.

It's freshly steamed. It's very tasty.

I wish I could share your joy.

But if Yami finds out,
he is going to k*ll me.

But I think the rest have probably
captured the demon beasts.

It's fine to relax, isn't it?

Hey, where is Finral?

He must be out buying some stuff.

Hey, Charmy. Do you have something
to go with the alcohol--

Am I drinking too much?

She got big all of a sudden.

And hairy too.

Her nails have grown longer too.

You should take care of your appearance.

Or else the cute guy from Golden Dawn
is going to ignore you.

It was so much fun.

Magna, you are good.

You too.

I'll let you go today.

Luck, I won't be left behind by you.

If your power grows ten times,

my power will grow ten times too.

Both of us are going to get
a lot stronger.

Don't you think so?

Sorry.

I was captured by the demon beasts,
so I didn't catch what you said.

Gosh! I'll save you…

My magic and stamina have worn out.

I thought so too.

Wait, you prick!

It's me!

Before Asta joined us,
I took care of you, didn't I?

Besides, I'm not delicious at all.

I can't find the demon beasts anywhere.

Nero hasn't returned too.

Whenever there is just the two of us,
I can't calm down.

That's Magna's sunglasses.

Was he captured by the demon beasts?

Magna, Luck!

Hang in there!

It's bad. The other members were att*cked
by the demon beasts the same way too.

What?

Asta, leave us.

The captain is in danger.

It's occupied.

It's occupied!

Are you that brat?

How dare he come back on his own.

It seems like you need to go.

But I'm not done yet.

It's going to go back in.

Let me concentrate--

Didn't I tell you it's occupied?

It seems that the three of you

aren't here for the toilet.

Although Captain Yami won't be in trouble,

even Magna and the others
are being worn down.

The three demon beasts might ambush him.

This is bad!

Captain Yami, you have to be all right!

Hey, you have to stop licking me.

Your saliva stinks.

Wait, Captain Yami!

What's going on?

Weren't the demon beasts targeting you?

Well, they were.

They seem to want some attention.

Attention?

Come to think of it,
when I first met them,

they wanted my attention like this too.

I don't remember when it was,
but I was on my way back to the base.

They were very little
and their parents just d*ed.

The nobles were probably hunting
the demon beasts as entertainment.

Give it up.
Your parents are not coming back.

My parents are not living with me either.

Let's be there for each other from now on.

Wait, don't be mistaken.

I'm not taking care of you…

Gosh, it can't be helped then.

What a touching story!

I'm so happy to hear this story.

The young demon beasts were so cute.

Weren't they?

But less than half a year later,

they grew to the size of their parents.

Their food is expensive too.

Sometimes I wanted
to let them go back to the wild.

I don't want to hear that!

That's right.

Anyway,

I can't have them bothering
the villages nearby.

That's why I needed you to get them back.

If I were to let them go back to the wild
and live freely,

I would find them
some mountains somewhere.

Yami, are you okay?

Magna!

Guys, are you all right?

Yes.

I stink after being licked
by the demon beasts though.

I thought I was going to be eaten.

But they just wanted some attention.

That was why everybody was exhausted
and fell to the ground.

You guys scared me.

They were like that with us.

We were worried about how hard
they were going to beg

Captain Yami for attention.

Mr. Yami is indeed incredible.

After all, you are their master.
You know how to handle them best.

Be good.

I have to make dolls out of you too.

If you lick Marie, I'll k*ll you.

They might be adorable,
but their saliva stinks.

If you want any more attention,

take a bath and brush your teeth.

I see. You guys love Captain Yami

and all members of Black Bull very much.

Okay. Let me, your caretaker,
give you attention too.

They seem to treat the brat as food.

No, this can't be.

You must be hungry.

Here is your food.

He is definitely just food to them.

I slept really well.

Zora, where have you been?

Shorty, mind your own business.

Is the base done yet?

The sun is setting.

Don't worry.

I've sorted it out.

Recombination Magic.

Black Bull's base.

Hard Rock Bison Style.

BLACK BULL'S BASE,
HARD ROCK BISON STYLE

This is Magna's request.

How hideous.

What did you say?
This is a super cool design!

I really want to see
what it's like inside.

This is it!

I can drink as much as I want.

No matter how much I eat,
food keeps coming.

Why is there a hole here?

I'm shy.

So I wish for a place to hide.

Although I can't be Marie's neighbor,

my Angel Marie,
tell me the weather tomorrow.

Tomorrow will be mostly sunny,
but partly cloudy.

The highest estimated temperature
is degrees.

The lowest estimated temperature
is degrees.

This talking Marie doll is great.

Well done.

Seems like an adorable maid
is too much to ask.

I can be your maid.

What?

I'm sorry.

I appreciate the thought.

Henry, how about the rooms?

For the rooms,

according to Gordon's request…

Let's all share a room as friends.

I'm not neighbors with Asta,
but in the same room as him!

As friends? This is way beyond friendly!

Unbelievable!

This reminds me of the time when Yuno,
Nash, and I slept together at the church.

It was a lot of fun every night.

I don't like this.

Me too.

That's right. I'm a royal.

I'm shy!

Although it's annoying to stay
with Luck in the same room,

chatting with Mr. Yami every night
until the sun goes up sounds good.

No, every night is a bit too much.

What?

Captain's bedroom

is in another room.

-What?
-What?

What is this?

The demon beasts requested for that.

There is nothing I can do then.

Of course not!

No! Help me!

Anyway, the base is not
a theme park for fun.

Just like before,
this place might be a bit dirty,

but it's our base.

No matter how you change it,
this is the most comforting one.

It feels like home.

I'm not disappointed in the least.

After joining Black Bull,
they took in somebody

like me who didn't have magic

when I first came here.

They made me their comrade right away.

Since then, every day
has been very fulfilling for me.

There were times when
we encountered danger,

but we worked together to overcome them.

I'm so happy that I got to join
the Black Bulls

and get to know all of you!

Why are you bringing this up
all of a sudden? It's embarrassing.

It was like that for us too.

Because of Asta's perseverance,

we have grown so much.

You might be rash,

but your perseverance is incredible.

We have to prove Asta's innocence
as soon as possible.

For now, we have to continue
our research on the devils.

Yes, sir!

Since we are back at the base,

we have to pull ourselves together
and work hard.

Wait, Captain Yami, where are you going?

Black Clover, Page ,

"The Blue Rose's Confession."

What is Captain Charlotte
trying to confess here?
