"Dark Magic, Nameless Slash!"
"Salamander, roar!"
"Beast Magic, Invincible Elbow Strike!"
Leya, on the right, swung the treasured blade in his hand, and a dazzling black light flew towards Yami.
Fana, on the left, had her Salamander on her shoulder breathe out raging flames, intending to burn Adam and the others to ashes.
Beto, facing Yami head-on, had a body harder than diamond. In just a few blows, he snapped Yami's treasured blade, which was on a ten-year installment plan, into two.
"Bastard, you'll pay for that!"
Captain Yami went all out, relying on his astonishing physical prowess and the support of his ki and Dark Magic, forcefully blocking the Three Demon Eyes' attacks.
"Oh no, Captain Yami won't last much longer," Finral said anxiously.
Although the Three Demon Eyes couldn't defeat Yami in one go, each of their attacks inflicted a certain amount of damage on him. If the prolonged battle continued, Yami would undoubtedly be defeated.
This was a truth everyone understood. Asta was the first to lose his patience, shouting, "Captain, let me out, I can—"
"Kid!"
Yami roared, his eyes firm and steady. With an unchallengeable tone, he shouted, "I'm fine! This is a test for me. I will surpass my limits here and defeat them!"
"Ah!!! Captain Yami, can you give me this chance!"
Adam regretted his hesitation at this moment. Normally, conserving strength would be the best strategy, but wouldn't that make him a coward?
"One after another, whether good guys or bad guys, they shout 'never give up' and can surpass themselves in desperate situations. It's simply unfair!"
Adam roared, and to everyone's astonishment, he burst out of the black cocoon, his entire body erupting with an astonishing aura, his skin turning red, like an enraged Bull!
"What incredible ki!"
Yami's eyes revealed a glint of light. He had noticed it during the entrance exam, found this kid interesting, and recruited him into the Black Bulls. He never expected this guy to be even more extraordinary than he had imagined!
"Bull of the Black Bulls! Grant me boundless strength!"
Adam's body even began to emit steam, unleashing the full power of Bull Power. Even if it meant temporarily sealing the Bull's power, he would make his enemies pay a heavy price.
"What's going on? Has he gone mad already?"
Leya and the others looked at Adam with some confusion, thinking this kid was pushed to his limits and intended to fight to the death!
"Damn it!"
Licht's pupils dilated, and his expression became solemn as he looked at Adam.
Of course, he hadn't forgotten how this kid's immobilization magic in the white space had almost allowed him to be killed.
The current situation was not much different from back then. The smile Licht had maintained finally showed a hint of chill. He shouted loudly, "Be careful! This guy might have had some seal lifted. Absolutely do not engage him—"
"Chatterbox!"
Adam pushed off with his foot, instantly creating a large crater in the ground. He launched himself forward, his fist heading straight for Licht's face.
"You bug, your opponent is me."
Beto had been itching for a fight. He didn't believe a mere bug could cause much trouble.
"Get out of my way, you ant! You're not worthy to be my opponent!"
Adam's face was crazed, his eyes rolled back, as he met Beto's fist with his own.
With a crunch, Beto's eyes showed a hint of terror; his right arm seemed to be broken.
"Scram!"
Beto flew out like a kite with a broken string, blasted away by Adam.
"Nameless Slash!"
"Salamander!"
Seeing the situation turn unfavorable, Leya and Fana immediately used long-range attacks to stop Adam.
"Take a few punches!"
Adam roared, the terrifying pressure emanating from him intensifying. He rapidly threw punches to his left and right, the force of his blows carrying the power of a thunderbolt, instantly scattering Fana's and Leya's attacks.
Leya's mind raced. With a spatial warp, he moved to touch Adam's grimoire, hoping to mimic his magic.
"Fire Lizard's Breath!"
Fana unleashed flames to assist Leya's copying.
"Kid, this time..."
As Leya touched Adam's grimoire, a miraculous power flowed into his body. At that moment, he felt a sense of death and quickly threw his right fist.
"Kid, can you grasp the power of the Bull?"
Adam's lips curled slightly, his eyes holding a playful glint. He punched Leya's right fist.
Crunch!
Leya shot backward, his eyes still spewing electric light towards the sky.
"Your turn, woman!"
Adam prepared to deal with this troublesome pink-haired girl first; those flames earlier had really hurt.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Adam suddenly turned left in mid-air, as if stepping on air currents, walking through the sky.
"Damn it, I even want to lift my restrictions!"
Beto got up from the ground, suppressing his anger, and continued to rush at Adam.
"How many types of magic does this kid even have?!"
Leya was greatly alarmed. Yami suddenly attacked from the side, slashing at him before he could fully recover.
"Black Blade from the Black Hole!"
Leya was instantly immobilized. Just as the black blade was about to cleave him in two, Licht suddenly appeared, clashing a light whip against Yami's attack.
Bang!
After a loud bang, both sides immediately pulled back.
"Adam is so strong!"
Asta for the first time doubted himself. Captain Yami being so strong was one thing, but even Adam was this outrageous. Could he really become the Magic Emperor?
Slap!
Asta slapped his own cheeks with both hands, his eyes gradually becoming resolute. He should do something instead of complaining here.
While Gauche and Finral were recovering their magic power with shocked expressions, Asta had already silently ambushed himself at the edge of the battlefield, awaiting his opportunity.
Freeze ~ soft!
Adam punched Fana away, showing no gentlemanly regard for her.
"You bug!"
"Electric Eye!"
Beto charged over furiously, and Leya also rushed back from Licht's side.
For the first time, the Three Demon Eyes felt a sense of retreat from a single human.
It seemed there was no other way to defeat Adam except to unleash their restrictions.
But... it wasn't time yet!
Adam felt the Bull Power on him beginning to fade, and he immediately fought the Three Demon Eyes like a madman.
"The offense and defense have shifted!"
"Fire Lizard's Breath!"
"Beast Magic, Little Bee Elbow Strike!"
"Electric Eye... I want to imitate one..."
While Adam and the Three Demon Eyes were fighting, that old fox Licht, his magic recovered, was still watching from above. If Leya hadn't been in danger, he would still be acting as a "commentator" up there!
"Black Blade from the Black Hole!"
"Light of Divine Punishment!"
The dazzling black blade and the enormous pillar of light collided. With a loud bang, dust flew everywhere in the cave.
A figure that had been waiting for a long time rushed out swiftly.
"It's not over yet!"
Asta seized the opportunity, striking Licht away with a single sword blow.
As Licht flew backward through the air, he saw Adam hitting Fana's backside, almost making the girl cry.
Beto and Leya could no longer hold back. Just as they were about to unleash their restrictions, a roar that echoed throughout the entire cave drew everyone's attention.
"Adam! You insult my kin, you must go to hell!"
