A/N ...2021 just ain't the year for me. Thanks for the 100K reads and 1k followers though everyone! I'm thankful for all of your support! Also, have y'all seen how THICC Asta has been animated now? I can get why they say his muscles are kind creepy. Really following through with the manga illustrations.

Black Clover Trivia #13: Langris's favourite things are sarcasm and cherry tarts.

Asta grinned, jumping about to gain her attention as his arms were strapped and out of commission.

"DELPHIA-SENPAI!"

"Is that your vice-captain, Asta?" Yuno wondered, squinting at the shadowed figure as they remained floating above, probably concentrating on keeping their spell in place. That type of large attack spell must use a great deal of focus, especially if she keeps it from affecting the Magic Knights and citizens.

Asta grinned up at his childhood friend. "Yeah! I can't believe she's here!"

"Let me join in," Finral hopped out of a spatial portal next to Asta, eyes stuck on the skies. "She's really here, huh?" His heart raced, a sense of calm and stability washing over him, knowing Delphia was finally up.

"Finral-senpai!" Asta greeted.

"Who's that?" Yuno wondered, taking a bite of the muffin Charmy had gifted him.

"This is my senior from the Black Bulls, Finral," Asta introduced, "You guys haven't met yet?"

"Nope."

Finral laughed, waving a hand carelessly, "It's fine. Not like I'd catch the eye of an elite from the Golden—"

"What's this?" A voice cut in, "Well, well... If it isn't my big brother. It's been so long! I never dreamed I'd run into you here."

Finral tensed as he turned to the figure upon the roofs. "Langris..." He gulped.

"Who's that?" Asta frowned.

"What's the black sheep of our family who can barely even fight, even doing on the battlefield?"

"Finral-senpai, who's that rude little twerp?!" Asta scowled.

"He's my little brother."

"Huh?"

"That's the Vice-Captain of the Golden Dawn, Langris Vaude." Yuno explained.

"What? Vice-captain?!"

"Are you still acting as the Black Bulls' pack mule, Finral?" Langris sneered, "It looks like I'll have to be the next head of the Vaude family since you're such a loser."

"Get over yourself!" Asta yelled, "Finral's awesome! At the Underwater Temple, it was only because I had Finral's help that we were able to defeat the enemy!"

"Wow! You mean you were actually useful for one in your life?" Langris scoffed in disbelief.

"More importantly, how can you talk to your big brother like that, you punk?!"

"Don't bother, Asta," A saccharine voice echoed above, "He's always been of the pretentious sort."

Langris scowled at the presence closing in, a soft thud sounding from behind him. He narrowed his eyes over his shoulder, his aquamarine eyes clashing with sharper cyans. He clicked his tongue in annoyance, though anyone who watched him closely would notice the way his shoulders relaxed and eyes brighten minutely.
