-Lumiere POV-

Sensing the devil's presence, Lumiere and Secre broke into the shadow palace only to be gobsmacked by the sight in front of them.

'What the hell?'

Not to far away from the pair stood their 500 year long enemy. But this enemy that had brought so much death and ruin in their time was actually running away from a teenage boy?

"Where are you going? THE FUN'S JUST BEGINNING!!" The boy laughed chasing after the devil with a gleeful expression plastered across his face.

"STAY AWAY FROM ME!"

Watching this happening from above, Lumiere couldn't help but look at his companion in confusion and ask-

"Secre... You're seeing this to right?"

"Mmm." The raven haired girl nodded after looking away from the white haired boy.

"That boy... He posesses Demon Slaying magic."

"Demon slaying magic?!" Lumiere's head snapped back in Grim's direction.

"What cool magic!!" He yelled in amazement.

"He's also a magic knight of the current era."

"Seriously?!" He gasped. "To think my kingdom could produce someone capable of causing a devil to run away like this!"

'Just how much have I missed in these past 500 years...'

"Your highness." The black haired girl called out. "We should focus our attention on your brother in law."

"Brother in law?"

*Looks up and sees Licht*

"Oh right! Lets go." Grabbing onto her hand, the two shoot up to meet the stationary Licht whose hair was still giving gravity the finger.

"Do your thing Secre."

-Patri POV-

'What the hell is going on?'

After managing to break free of his dark elf state and reaching the highest level of the Shadow Palace with Asta and Yuno by his side, the sight of the Devil running from Grim's pursuit left him speechless.

'How's he doing that?'

And if that wasn't enough, the prince of the clover kingdom who should have died out years ago had just appeared out of nowhere!

"Hey Yuno!" Asta called out. "Isn't that-

"Yeah." Yuno nodded seeing Lumiere. "Its the first wizard king."

"EHHHH!!! But how?! Shouldn't he be like a bizillion years old or something?!"

"Hey." Patri interrupted and called for their attention. "That Grim guy... What exactly is his magic?"

---

-Grim POV-

'My body hurts. Diving into those purple tentacle things and blowing them up from the inside might not have been the smartest thing to do afteral. Now I have a bunch of injuries on my body from where they touched me.'

"ICE SHARDS!!!"

*BOOM!!*

*BOOM!!*

'But I can't stop.'

"STORM OF SWORDS!!"

*SWOOSH!!*

*SWOOSH!!*

'I won't stop.'

"IRON SPEARS!!"

*SWOOSH!!*

'I''LL NEVER STOP!!'

*BOOM!!*

-Lumiere POV-

'What the!'

With Grim's body releasing so much mana, even Lumiere, someone who had not seen his friend for 500 years had to turn his attention elsewhere.

'Such mana...'

Secre on the other hand couldn't afford to lose focus as she on waking up the guy in front of her.

"RELEASE!!" She yelled finally undoing the spell.

A massive burst of light and mana exploded out of Licht's body as both he and his demon dweller sword began shinning.

"Licht..." Lumiere whispered.

Feeling like the fog surrounding his head had cleared, Licht took in a deep breath and slowly opened his eyes.

"Lumiere... *eyes open fully* thank you."

Hearing his friend's voice for the first time in 500 years, Lumiere was overwhelmed by his emotions.

"Licht-

"ARGHHHH!!!" The devil's voice suddenly rang out drawing their attention.

"WOAH!!" Lumiere exclaimed seeing the devil grab onto the shoulder it had been cut on. "Did you see that!" He grabbed Licht's shoulder and pointed.

"Mmm." The elf leader nodded and smiled gently. "To think that even after 500 years had passed, our dream would finally be fulfillled."

"Our dream?...!! You mean he's-

"Mmm." Licht nodded. "He's our bridge."

-Grim POV-

'Dammit! He's only using physical attacks against me now! *Sigh* and his healing is really annoying.'

"Hey." A voice suddenly sounded out next to him.

"Huh?" He turned his head to the side only to see a stone Lumiere looking at him.

"Need a hand?"

"Who the fuċk are you?"

'And why are you made of stone? Don't tell me he has his own version of [Breath of Stone]?'

"Hehe." Lumiere just laughed and ignored his question.

Feeling a hand suddenly appear on his other shoulder, Grim's head snapped to the side.

"You!!"

Flying next to his was a smiling Licht who was giving off a completely different vibe compared to what he had earlier.

'What the fuċk?! Did he use that weird mana melding technique to bypass my [Hyper focus] again? Wait a fuċkɨnġ minute! How did this stone dude get past it?'

Unable to hear Grim's thoughts, Licht merely patted his shoulder and said.

"You've done well, but we'll take it from here."

'The fuċk did he just say?'

'And since when could you talk like a normal person?!'

"Yep." Lumiere chimmed in. "Sorry for burdening you with our mess. We'll handle this now."

"Like hell you wil-

*BOOM!!*

*FWOOSH!!*

Not waiting to hear his response, both characters sped past him and charged forward at a speed that surpassed his own.

'The fuċk! HOW ARE THEY SO FAST!!'

-Zagred POV-

Flapping his wings aggresively, the devil of words raced through the area putting as much distance between himself and Grim as possible.

'What the hell is wrong with that boy! He has a counter for every word I use! And he somehow destroyed my trident! How is that even possible?! AND WHAT THE HELL IS HIS MAGIC!!'

Unfortunately for him, the two mages from 500 years ago were beginning to gain on him.

'Tch, nuisances.'

"Stop them." He commanded the underworld magic.

Heeding his orders, the underworld magic struck.

[Light Magic: Mana Zone - Lamp of Avior Gloria]

[Sword Magic: Origin Flash Barrage]

Not missing a beat, the two released their own spells. From Lumiere came a barrage of intense concentrated light blasts that bombarded the area while Licht unleashed several giant slashes that tore through the remaining underworld magic with ease.

*BANG!!*

*BANG!!*

*BANG!!*

'What?!! They tore through magic that has the ability to devour the magic of this world?... Oh, I see. Since he used forbidden magic to turn into that demon 500 hundred years ago and the prince used his own magic to help absorb the negative mana that came from the demon's attack, they both have traces of negative mana in their systems meaning that they can interfere with magic from the other world.'

Flashing in front of him, Lumiere manifested a giant sword made of light and stabbed it at Zagred.

*SWOOSH!!*

!!!

Tilting to the side, Zagred watched as the giant sword blasted past him.

"Fufufufu, did you really think you could beat me now that I have a physical bod-

*BANG!!*

Appearing behind him and absorbing the giant light sword with the demon dweller sword, Licht charged the blade with so much magical energy that it formed a giant light sword around itself. Then without any hesitation, he slashed down and hit Zagred with all he had.

*BOOM!!*

And to add insult to injury, Lumiere hit the falling devil with a giant arrow made of light.

*BOOM!!*

"Hmm." Zagred hummed as he fell.

'Its as I thought, this magic can't hurt me... But that begs the question, what is that boy's magic exactly?'

"ITS OVER DEVIL!!" Lumiere screamed flashing in front of him with another giant sword.

"DIEE!!"

*SWOOSH!!*

Thrusting his hand forward, the giant sword shot forward and pierced straight through Zagred's ċhėst.

"Yes!!" Lumiere cheered.

"Oh?" Zagred muttered realizing that he was still in a battle.

[Hell Language: Trident of Destruction]

Feeling that something was wrong, Licht suddenly yelled.

"LUMIERE!!"

Unfortunately, it was to late.

*FWOOSH!!*

Thrusting the trident forward with enough speed that the air whistled, Zagred's all destroying trident ripped through Lumiere's stone arm tearing it off his body.

'My arm!'

"YOUR HIGHNESS!!" Secre screamed.

"Heh." Zagred grinned in a condescending manner. "Die properly this time."

Ignoring the Secre's scream in the background, he thrust the trident at the prince's face.

"Have fun in the after life."

*SWOOSH!!*

Seeing the trident approach his face, Lumiere realized that he didn't have enough time to dodge and was forced to accept that this was as far as he would go.

'Licht... Secre... I'm sorry.'

"ZAGREEDDDD!!!"

*FWOOSH!!*

Speeding forward with all he had, Grim finally caught up with the devi.

[Breath of the Beast]

Raising his sword, the magic destroying trident and magic cutting blades came into colided once again.

*CLANG!!*

And just like before, the affinity of both weapons caused them both to-

*Shatter*

"You!!" Zagred yelled seeing the one person he didn't want to see arrive in front of him and shatter his trident.
