The Very Best Of The Very Worst

Page 7. Capital Riot

Asta:"Now listen up! I wasn't done talking! I'm gonna get results like nobody else and become the Wizard King! And prove you wrong!!!!"

Everyone just stared at him wide eyed and began laughing.

"Nice one Asta."

Alecdora:"And you, boy, do you hope to accomplish the same impossible task?"

"That's not impossible. It's just highly difficult, but that's nothing new to us dogs. For me, I'm gonna be the strongest Black Bull there is. I'll be the very best like no one ever was! And trust me! This dog is not just all bark! I got some bite as well!"

Solid:"The very best? The Black Bulls are the very worst. Bottom of the barrel."

"And look where we are. We got invited by the Wizard King himself! He himself asked for Asta and I to explore that dungeon!"

Solid:"Tch! Don't get in over your head!"

He got his grimoire at the ready and I got mine as well.

Alecdora:"Careful now, Solid, this boy is a lightning mage. Let me be the one to put him down."

"Who said I was a lightning user?"

Alecdora:"Huh?"

"Vine Whip!"

A vine was created in my hand and I used it to smack Alecdora in the chest and sent him flying to a wall.

Fuegoleon: Interesting. At the exam he used lightning spells. But that's plant based magic right there.

Solid:"Insolent brat! Water creation magic: Sea Serpent Strike!"

He shot out a snake of water that was flying directly at me.

Noelle:"(Y/n)!"

I used the vine in my hand to smack the water and it turned into droplets that fell to the floor.

Solid:"No! This can't be!"

"You wanna use that garden snake attack again? Be my guest. Look, you can insult me all you want, but my friends are a no go! I'll fight for their honor! And look at me right now. I just showed up two nobles from the big boy squads. How embarrassing."

I smirked at them as Noelle and Mimosa were smiling from ear to ear.

Nebra:"Leave this to me brother!"

Alecdora:"I'll take care of the other delinquent!"

Nebra:"Mist binding magic: Mist Spider's Threads!"

Alecdora:"Sand creation magic: Sand Armor Guard!"

A giant knight of sand wrapped its arms around and Asta and squeezed him as the mist began swirling around me and wrapping around my limbs.

Mimosa:"No! They're in trouble!"

Klaus:"Uhh... Is this necessary? I think they've learned their lesson."

Alecdora:"Quiet! Did I give you permission to speak?"

Klaus:"N-no sir..."

Alecdora:"Such behavior cannot go unpunished. Especially if it interferes with a grand occasion such as the Distinguished Service Ceremony banquet."

Solid:"Why so gentle, Alecdora? Don't tell me the Golden Dawn has gotten soft."

Nebra:"As for you boy..."

She spread her fingers and the mist began pulling my limbs. I grunted in pain as they were continously being pulled

Noelle:"Sister! Stop!"
