03x52 - Vice Captain Langris Vaude

[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.

During the captain's meeting,

candidates to be sent for training
at Heart Kingdom have been decided.

Black Bull is sending

Asta, Nero, Luck,

Finral, and Noelle.

Golden Dawn is sending Mimosa.

Crimson Lion is sending Leopold.

Charlotte Roselei from Blue Rose
recommends herself.

Similarly, Rill from Azure Deer
recommends himself.

They will be taking on the challenge
of training with Spirit Guardians.

The meeting was followed by
the w*r Merits Conferment Ceremony.

Outstanding individuals in the battle
against the Eye of the Midnight Sun,

Leopold, Sol, and Mimosa,
were all promoted.

Furthermore…

Yuno of the Golden Dawn,

you have been awarded the title of
st Class Senior Magic Knight.

-What?
-What?

Yuno was promoted to
st Class Senior Magic Knight.

That triggered one
of the king's frequent whims.

Using my authority as king, I grant Sekke…

the title of
st Class Senior Magic Knight!

-What?
-What?

A st Class Senior Magic Knight?

What's happening right now?

Sekke was also promoted
to st Class Senior Magic Knight.

That aside,

someone in Black Bull

was fretting over not being selected

for training at Heart Kingdom.

Please! Let me go!

I'm a real man and I will not
be left in the dust this time!

Even if you tell me not to go,
I'd still go!

Can you do it?

I can!

The amount of magic I have doesn't matter!

I'll show you that I can surpass
the limits of a peasant!

Fine. I'll try asking Sir Julius.

On the other hand,

someone in Golden Dawn

felt unsettled by Yuno's promotion

to st Class Senior Magic Knight.

BASE OF THE GOLDEN DAWN

Yuno has been promoted
to st Class Senior Magic Knight?

He's on the same rank
as Vice-Captain Langris.

He has only been in the squad
for one year.

Even so, that's not out of the ordinary
given Yuno's strength.

Ever since the battle,

Vice-Captain Langris
hasn't been on any missions.

It's likely that Yuno will become
the next vice-captain.

Everyone in the squad
is talking about that now.

I'm sure they would.

Langris and Yuno are equals
in terms of magic and strength,

but when it comes to who is more
suitable to be vice-captain…

Vice-Captain Langris!

Hello!

Are you taking a walk?

It's a nice day for a stroll.

I hope you have a good time.

Excuse me.

It's likely that Yuno will become
the next vice-captain.

Don't you think it's about time?

About time for what?

For you to resume
your duties as vice-captain.

The battle with Spade Kingdom
is approaching.

I hope you can show the squad--

Can you give me more time?

Have you been in touch
with my brother lately?

Look at this.

Are those letters?

Finral could just use Spatial Magic
to come and see me,

but he follows decorum and sends letters.

Keeping a distance from you
is a sort of training.

That must be what he thinks.

What's wrong? Did you catch a cold?

Noelle, you are so cute today.

How about having tea…

Finral, you'll never
break the curse like this!

What's in the letters?

He said he'll be going
to Heart Kingdom for training soon.

He even wrote about that?

If he has to go
to a neighboring kingdom for training,

doesn't that mean that
there will be another w*r soon?

What?

I've tried asking Finral in person.

You know he is not good
at keeping secrets, don't you?

Langris?

Lady Finesse, you don't have to worry
about such things.

What are you laughing at?

You are not good at keeping secrets.

You're just like him.

Don't compare me with him!

Sorry.

No.

I'm the one who should apologize.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

You should head back inside.

I have to go too.

Don't worry. This happens often.

No, I might not look like it,
but I'm very busy.

Then have you resumed
your duty as vice-captain?

Thank you for the tea.

Check.

A clever move.

See?

-You should've listened to me
-Incredible, right?

-and bet on Siren.
-You're right!

The game is not over yet.

Hey, Yuno!

Today is perfect for a date!
Where should we go?

I don't really mind.

Hey, are you listening?

Vice-Captain Langris.

Wait a minute.

Don't look at us
with such a scary expression

just because
you are jealous of me and Yuno--

Is something the matter?

I want to spar with you.

-What?
-What?

Aren't you
a st Class Senior Magic Knight now?

As someone who is also
a st Class Senior Magic Knight,

I wanted to verify whether you qualify--

I understand.

Yuno?

Wait, Yuno!

Vice-Captain Langris, please calm down!

Klaus, you're the one
who should calm down.

I'm not here for a fight.

Come in.

Pardon me.

Vice-Captain Langris
asked Yuno to spar with him.

Langris did?

I have a bad feeling about this.

I hope nothing bad will happen.

Yuno, I'm right here with you.

Don't hold back. Take him down!

A simple sparring match
seems a bit boring.

How about this?

Let's say

the loser has to leave Golden Dawn.

What a lowly bunch!

You should be more selective
when it comes to friends, Yuno.

Aren't you embarrassed
to be seen with them?

-Why would I be?
-What?

That has never crossed my mind.

I am proud of Asta.

He is also my rival.

Someone like him is your rival?

What kind of rival?

Are you two competing for something?

Yes.

We aim to be the Magic Emperor!

What does that mean?

I won't forgive anyone
who looks down on Yuno!

There is no rule that states

that commoners can't be the Magic Emperor.

-What?
-So first,

I have to become
the captain of Golden Dawn.

That means you have no regard
for me as your vice-captain.

You mentioned that

before you become the Magic Emperor,

you'll become the captain
of Golden Dawn first.

If you win, then I,
the vice-captain, will leave.

You'll be closer
to being the captain of Golden Dawn.

It's an attractive suggestion, isn't it?

Hurry up and get started.

That's like adding fuel to a fire.

He's going to pay for that.

There will definitely be blood.

Who are you betting on?

Neither!

We have to stop them!

Then let's begin

this sparring session!

The boulder disappeared!

He wasted no time.

Vice-Captain Langris!

Is he serious about this?

Too bad you dodged that.

The third time is the charm!

Wind Creation Magic,

Wind Blades Shower!

How could I be so careless?

What's with that expression?

I don't know what you're thinking.

Can you take this seriously?

Do you think
I'm not taking this seriously?

If you were,

you should've at least
been able to dodge that att*ck.

You'll get hurt
if you don't take this seriously.

Yuno is provoking him again!

But that seems more than
just a simple provocation to me.

What did you just say?

Do you want to hear it again?

I see.

So you know you were being rude.

In that case, I won't be nice either!

He used this back then!

This is the Spatial Magic that

Vice-Captain Langris used
during the Royal Knights Selection Exam!

I'll show you what happens
when I get serious!

Spirit Assimilation,

Spirit Dive!

Take this!

Mana Zone,

Spirit's Hushed Dance.

Incredible!

I expected no less from Yuno!

Spirit Storm!

He used that spell
when he was possessed by an elf!

An a*t*matic defense spell!

It should be a spell that he can only use
through the elf's mana.

The feeling of that mana
when I was reincarnated as an elf

still remains in my body.

How long can you keep dodging?

Yuno's crown!

He chipped it off!

What's wrong?

Is dodging the only thing you can do?

This att*ck will end you!

Yuno!

What?

An afterimage?

It is indeed the end.

Yuno!

Is he all right?

But that means the vice-captain…

Which side did I bet on?

How would I know?

I lost.

What's with that expression?

Laugh if you want.

I lost to you even though I went all out.

Didn't you only get serious
halfway through?

Didn't you start off
intending to lose to me?

So you saw through me.

Yes, I planned on
deliberately losing to you

and leaving Golden Dawn.

But what happened in the end?

I really tried but that just makes
my defeat even more pathetic.

Who did you call pathetic?

Do you think it was an easy win?

Indeed, Yuno…

He didn't win easily.

So what if you didn't?

You still won! I lost to you!

That means I have to leave
Golden Dawn as agreed.

I don't remember agreeing to that--

Maybe you don't, but I do.

That's not happening.

I'm leaving Golden Dawn in your hands.

Are you seriously quitting?

I don't feel like I've won.

If you had been serious from the start,

who knows who would have won?

Please promise me.

One day,

you'll spar with me seriously.

I apologize for acting on my own
and inciting a duel.

That's just how you are.

You don't need to create an excuse
to leave the squad right in front of them.

So you saw through it then?

That's just how I am.

I know.

I also know you're not the kind of man
who stays down after falling.

What?

You will always be
a member of the Golden Dawn.

Thank you, Captain.

Goodbye.

I'll be waiting for you, Langris.

Langris, why are you dressed like that?

I'm going on a trip.

Are you leaving Golden Dawn?

That's not it.

I made a silly promise to someone.

Really?

Good morning, Lady Finesse!

Langris? Why are you dressed like that?

I should be asking you

if you are here to see Lady Finesse
one last time before leaving for training.

What?

Well, I guess so.

I'll give Lady Finesse a happy life.

I'll become the man that deserves you
and come back to you.

Please hurry then.

I forgot to tell you both something.

I still haven't decided to let
you have Lady Finesse yet, Finral.

What?

Finral, you're not that great.
So don't get too arrogant.

Finral, the real battle begins now.

You're going to Heart Kingdom to train!

Eat all you can!

Thank you!

I don't mind if I do!

I can't eat anymore.

What?

Is it just you guys?

Magna and Luck said they were going
to hold off on eating a bit longer.

Really?

If you see me, I'm sure
you'll invite me to go to the training.

But I must head home

to see my father

to work hard on my Curse Magic.

Unfortunately, I cannot go with you all.

-So I'll slip out stealthily.
-You sure can eat.

Did we just pass by someone?

You're imagining things.

Really?

Mr. Yami, so can I go to Heart Kingdom?

He said it won't be a problem
to add just one more person.

Thank you so much, Mr. Yami!

If you want to thank someone,
thank Sir Julius.

Yes!

Congratulations, Magna!

Thank you, Asta!

I'm thirsty.

What's the name of that
delicious juice in Heart Kingdom?

"Delicious"?

Do you mean that crimson orange juice?

I can't wait to drink it!

It gets sweeter
when you pour your magic into it, right?

"It gets sweeter"?

Yes!

I drank it straight up,
so it was super sour!

What? I added magic for you after that!

Anyway, you're leaving
for Heart Kingdom tomorrow.

Make sure you give your all
when training with the Spirit Guardians!

-Yes!
-Yes!

I'm going to become
even stronger than I am now

to defeat the devil, Megicula!

-Petite Clover!
-Petite Clover!

If You're Going to Quit
Being Vice-Captain.

I apologize for acting on my own
and inciting a duel.

If you're going to quit
being vice-captain,

you can be a food server.

Food server?

If you don't like that,
you can be the chalkboard eraser.

Chalkboard eraser?

Or you can be an animal caretaker.

Animal caretaker?

I hate you!

That hurts!

Okay, time to train!

I'm going to work out!

Idiosta, quiet down!

Maybe you should exercise your brain too.
