Asta shot toward the demon at full speed, while Yuno stayed at his side, fending off the horde of writhing tentacle monsters charging their way.
"With this light—my power just keeps surging!"
"Asta, are you at your limit already?"
"Asta, if you can't keep up, I'm leaving you behind!"
Asta grinned through the chaos. "Yuno, you better not!"
The two of them clashed midair against the wave of monsters, slicing and dodging with everything they had.
The demon watched from above, its eyes narrowing. "Pathetic humans… yet you wield the power of elves. You even repelled my magic. Impressive—but that wind alone can't destroy my heart."
It sneered. "The brat with Anti-Magic is just being dragged along by the wind now. He's finished. Can't even keep up. Not worth worrying about."
But then the demon suddenly frowned—Asta had vanished from sight.
"Where's that Anti-Magic brat?!"
It turned its head sharply. "He's hiding… in the shadow of fading magic! Changed direction—damn!"
Asta was already above it, roaring as he and Yuno dove in together.
The demon's eyes widened. "They're syncing their attacks—using each other's momentum to move faster?!"
Both of their blades struck true, slashing deep into the demon's flesh.
"STOP!" the demon bellowed. "Weaken! Revert! STOP!"
But Asta and Yuno only roared louder, pushing through its defenses.
Then, pain ripped through Asta's body. His Anti-Magic form shattered in an instant. "Crap… I hit my limit!"
"Asta!!" Yuno shouted.
The demon burst into laughter. "Too bad! Looks like your power's run dry!"
…
Elsewhere, Captain Yami's blade was glowing with dense, pulsing dark magic.
Charlotte's eyes widened in shock. "He's so focused—but it's too far! That distance is impossible!"
"Are you sure about this?" she called out.
Yami's cigarette fell from his mouth. His eyes shot open—and the world turned white. The thorns along his sword snapped with a sharp crack.
"Dark Cloaked—Dimension Slash: Equinox!"
A streak of pure black light exploded from his sword, slicing through the heavens themselves.
"Beyond the horizon—!!"
The entire world seemed to split apart. The slash ripped forward, obliterating everything in its path.
High above the castle, the demon froze midair as its body split in two. Blood sprayed like rain.
Everyone stared, eyes wide in disbelief.

Asta gasped. "That energy—that's Captain Yami!"
The demon's body was bisected, blood pouring endlessly from the wound. Its eyes blurred over. "You… damn humans…!"
Asta stumbled back as the demon coughed up blood. Then, a pair of hands pressed against his back.
"Nero?!"
Nero's voice rang out, firm and clear. "Sealing Recovery Magic: Eternal Black Bridge!"
"I've sealed his wounds away—now go! Can you still use Anti-Magic?"
A strange, glowing light flared across Asta's body.
The demon snarled, spitting out blood that transformed into a swarm of crimson arrows flying straight at them.
Yuno gripped his wind spirit tight, flooding it with mana. A white tornado roared to life before his blade. "You're the one who's gonna die!"
The raging wind storm surged forward, tearing through the demon's barrage.
Nero looked at Asta, her voice shaking. "Asta! What are you doing?! You're the one who said you'd become the Wizard King!"
Memories flashed in Asta's mind—every hardship, every fight, every promise.
He clenched his teeth, and the dark energy exploded from within him once more. "Yeah—I'm not done yet!"
Black lightning crawled over his Demon-Slayer Sword. Wings of shadow burst from his back as red sparks lit up his body.
"Surpass your limits!"
The demon's vision flickered—and within Asta, it saw the true form of the Anti-Magic demon.
Asta roared and brought his sword down. The slash ripped through space itself, striking the demon dead center.
The entire battlefield twisted as the demon screamed in agony. Its two halves began to crumble into nothing.
"No… impossible! How could this happen?!"
Its voice faded as another, unfamiliar figure appeared within its fading consciousness—a different demon, grinning.
"Well, hello there, senior."
The dying demon's eyes widened. "You… who are you?"
The newcomer just laughed. "Doesn't matter. You lost. And losers don't get to ask questions. Farewell, fallen one."
The demon's essence disintegrated into the void.
"We did it!!"
Yuno caught Asta midair. Asta's form had returned to normal, his body completely drained.
Charlotte stared blankly. "The demon's mana… it's gone. Is it really over?"
Yami smirked. "Heh. Looks like someone stole my finishing move."
