The Witch's Forest is located northeast of the Clover Kingdom and borders the Diamond Kingdom.
This mysterious land holds an irresistible allure for men.
Witches!
They have lived here for generations, protected by the Demon Queen.
The Demon Queen is the leader of this land, an old woman who has lived for countless years; she is the "mother" of these witches.
The moon was obscured by dark clouds, and under the cover of night, the Witch's Forest appeared especially eerie.
"Uh... wouldn't it be bad to bother them so late?"
Adam scratched his head. Going in this late at night, he would surely be mistaken for an intruder!
"Never mind, for Asta's sake, I can only reluctantly go in and take a look."
Adam said with a righteous air.
In this wilderness, sleeping wouldn't be peaceful anyway. Going in to visit might even get him a meal.
The moment Adam stepped into the Witch's Forest, the Demon Queen, a thousand meters away, sensed his presence.
"A bug has come... no, it's a Devil!"
The Demon Queen stood in her room, and through a blood-red crystal ball, she saw Adam striding forward. The magic power on him was astonishing, yet if one didn't check carefully, it couldn't be detected.
"He comes with ill intentions. I'll test him with Mud Puppets and the children first!"
Witches' residences.
There was a hidden world within this forest; the witches' homes were on the upper levels, built on thick tree trunks.
No wonder it's called the Witch's Forest; it turns out the witches are all in the big trees.
"The air here is so good!"
Adam roamed through the forest. Based on his experience, the most noble person definitely lived in the center of the territory.
So, by heading towards the core, he would be able to meet the Demon Queen.
"What is that?"
The light at night was dim, but the blue glow emitted by the ancient trees illuminated a path.
A Mud Puppet with a green grassy head flew towards Adam.
"Are you a forest patrol? Tell your Queen that someone has come to visit her."
The Mud Puppet flew in front of Adam, scanning him with its eyes. Its pristine white eyes instantly turned fiery red, and purple energy rapidly condensed in its mouth, about to be sprayed out.
"Dragon Blast!!"
Adam raised his right hand, and a powerful beam of energy shot out. With a loud bang, the Mud Puppet was blown to smithereens.
"Intruder!"
The explosion woke the witches in the forest. They rushed out of their homes, grabbed their magic wands, mounted their brooms, and flew straight towards Adam.
"Who are you, daring to cause trouble in the Witch's Forest!"
A beautiful witch with long golden hair pointed her magic wand at Adam and shouted, "You stinky man, you're not welcome here, now get out!"
"Tell me where your Queen lives, I have something to discuss with her..."
Before Adam could finish speaking, the witches, gathered together, directly fired beams of light at him, showing no hospitality whatsoever.
"You all look quite good, but your intentions aren't so great. I'll properly discipline you on behalf of the Demon Queen!"
The witches surrounded Adam, and beams of light from all directions converged, forming a gigantic, colorful energy pillar that slammed directly towards him.
"Piercing Electric Eyes!"
Bang!
Adam's eyes shot out lasers, colliding with the witches' light pillar. A huge explosion erupted in the air, and the lasers directly pierced through the energy pillar, soaring towards the sky.
"Just a small lesson!"
Adam's mouth curved into a slight smile, his expression becoming somewhat crazed. These cute little witches, don't run away!
"Aerial Flight, Water Movement!"
Adam transformed into water and flew towards the witches in the sky.
"Ah! A monster!"
One witch couldn't hold back any longer, letting out a sharp scream and turning to flee.
The moment Adam's single attack broke through theirs, the witches were already terrified and wanted to run, but no one dared to take the lead, so they all remained stunned in place.
With someone breaking the ice, the rest of the witches immediately scattered and flew away. The leading golden-haired witch feigned composure, shouting, "Everyone, hold on, don't panic! Her Majesty is watching us. This stinky man is just for show; he can't use attacks like that many times..."
"Is that so?"
Adam's devilish voice came, and the golden-haired witch immediately froze in place. She watched in disbelief as the blue humanoid water body in front of her, which appeared particularly eerie in the night forest.
"Water Ball!"
Splash!
A drenching punishment! Combined with Adam's methods for female enemies, this was practically a "pool party"!
No one could escape the dual movement of Rooster Power and Water Devil. Just as Adam was having a blast, a majestic and clear voice came from above the forest.
"Enough! Rude intruder! Relax your mind; my crows will bring you over!"
The Demon Queen finally couldn't stand it anymore. This man, who couldn't be described as an ordinary guest, was humiliating her in a special way.
"Alright!"
Adam released the enemy he had tucked under his arm. The witch, blushing and teary-eyed, fled.
Her jade thighs were all red!
A flock of crows flew from a distance, quickly surrounding Adam and carrying him towards the Demon Queen.
"I'm so curious, what does the Demon Queen, who has lived for hundreds of years, look like!"
... By a small river outside the Black Bulls Headquarters, Asta sat on a rock with a troubled expression. The Black Bulls members hid not far away, watching him with concern.
"Will Asta be alright?"
"little beanpole, you have to hold on!"
"That hateful Adam, always acting on his own! When he gets back, I'm definitely going to teach him a good lesson!"
The group hid behind a large rock, whispering.
"It's not over yet!"
Asta stood up at that moment, his troubled expression immediately vanishing. He still had to surpass Yuno and become the Magic Emperor; there was no time for despondency.
And that Adam, he had to surpass him too, he couldn't let him treat him like a child anymore... Asta shook his head, casting all thoughts aside. He couldn't handle so many thoughts.
"Never give up!"
Instead of overthinking, it's better to act!
Asta began doing squats. This little beanpole decided to train his leg muscles first.
"This guy!"
Finral was so moved he cried.
At this moment, the Black Bulls members also made a decision: they too would do something for Asta's arm.
Who wouldn't love such a united atmosphere!
... Witch's Forest, Demon Queen's residence.
"This place of yours isn't very luxurious!"
The crows brought Adam to the core of the Witch's Forest, inside the Queen's palace. From the outside, it looked like a castle made of multiple conjoined houses, not as luxurious as he had imagined.
Adam entered the palace. The floor was covered with a red carpet, and a woman in a green dress and a green magic hat was staring at him with a sinister expression.
"Rude intruder who visits at night, what exactly do you want with me?"
Grumble grumble~
Adam rubbed his stomach awkwardly, saying with some embarrassment, "Could you prepare something to eat first? I didn't have dinner."
"What!"
