Narrator: Threatened by a ruthless demon, humanity was on the brink of destruction. All seemed lost until a lone mage stepped forward and took up the fight. After his triumph, he was hailed as the Wizard King, and his story has since become legend.

Previously On Killer Ice....

Solid: Now, now... There's no need get to worked up the both of you.... especially you Alecdora. We know all who's the biggest inept failure in this room. And it's not my dear little cousin Mimosa.

He menancingly stalks over to his baby sister Noelle like an anaconda in the water stalking a land animal, who was unaware of what Solid was about to do but what he did outside of his other siblings, the guests were downright disgusted, outraged or other saddened for the outcast of House Silva.

Solid: Isn't that right, Dear... Sister... Noelle?

He did the most deprecating you could ever do to someone at banquet..... he pours his glass of water on top of Noelle's head, dampening her hair harshly. Tyrus now had a new target he wanted to eradicate, his blood now running colder than it ever had, even moreso when he had threatened to end Mars's life after nearly killing Noelle.

Tyrus: Sorry, Mosshead. You just lost pole position in my killing ranks! This is what I meant by going wrong but now I'm going lose my dream over a fellow magic knight. Let alone a Royal.

Noelle: Why, Solid... just why?

Klaus: And to your own little sister no less. Have you no heart?!

Solid just flashes a toothy smirk, not even regretting his heinous and devilish antics.

Tyrus: Mimosa.... I'm sorry but I might just murder your cousin for that stupidity he just pulled.

He bit his tongue but whispered it to the royal after seeing his teammate just be embarrassed for not a damn reason. Mimosa was horrified but in that moment she very well could understood why Tyrus's anger was being placed as it was.

Solid: You can't even control your magic power properly, could there be any bigger disgrace to House Silva?

Nebra: You were as good as banished from our House and because you liberate a no name village in the Forsaken Realm and you complete a dungeon mission, you, an abject failure have the fortitude and guts to even show your face back here? Why, because the Wizard King invited you. Don't make me laugh!

Noelle: Nebra, no... please stop. I beg of you.

Tyrus: Cool, just make that three.

But the one she feared the most, finally stepped up. Big Brother Nozel and always, he had always the most lifeless and stress free expression but seeing Noelle... his face had a calm rage.

Nozel: You let two meager successes go to your head, Noelle. And now, you've come back to sully the Silva name even more, I gather. Your mere appearance is a blight to my eyes.

Noelle: B-but... we were invited.

Nozel: This is no setting for a filthy insect such as yourself. Now leave, Noelle. Wasn't killing our mother enough of a life sentence for us all?

Tyrus: And that makes four.... time to go mount shopping.

That last sentence had pierced Noelle's heart like an arrow hitting its bullseye. Tyrus on the other hand? Pure ice cold rage was running through his veins. He didn't give a fuck if Nozel, Nebra and Solid were royalty like Noelle, they sullied the name of the Royal House far worse than she could've allegedly. She wanted to run away, she wanted to break down in front of her fellow Knights but she had more pride than that second option. Tears at this point were a given as the waterworks were flowing but she turned on heel and belted for the day. That was until Tyrus grabbed her hand!

Noelle: Tyrus!

The Silva trio of older siblings looked on shocked, Nozel neutral as always, as he stops her from running away.

Tyrus: You didn't deserve that Noelle, bump all that. I may rib the hell out of you, but that comes from a place of good-nature. To ease the tension you always carry on. I care about you as a teammate, a confidant, a bloody friend and with that territory? It comes with helping whenever one of my friends is distressed. Know this. You may be a royal pain, but compared to these lot? You and Mimosa are about only two I can work with. Let's face your problem.... together Noelle. Black Bulls roam together, don't they?

He gives her a goofy smile. That same damn goofy smile she was starting to fall for before it quickly turned to a frown. It was not geared at her but rather, Nozel, Nebra and Solid as he lets go of her hand.

Noelle: I- I-

Tyrus: I was REALLY, REALLY, REALLY hoping were you know? Just stuck up royals with a penchant for just thinking you were high and mighty.. comes with the territory. But what would I know? I'm a what would old Noelle call me? A lowly street urchin or something like that. But you three?

His aura completely changes from fun, happy-go-lucky to something Asta and Yuno would hope they would NEVER feel. Ice-Cold bloodlust..

Tyrus: Have got to be the poorest, absolute abysmally, atrocious set of older SIBLINGS I HAVE EVER SEEN! I see now firsthand why Noelle is so closed-off! SIBLINGS ARE MEANT TO CHERISH, LOVE, UPHOLD, AND HYPE EACH OTHER! INSTEAD WHAT I DO- MMMFMSS

Alecdora: Silence you abhorrent cockroach! You have no right to speak to nobility or royalty in such a way!

Tyrus soon is freed his sand guard trap as Asta slashes through the spell!

Tyrus: Thanks.... AS FOR YOU GOLDEN DAWN MOSSHEAD, STAY THE HELL OUT OF MY WAY! Like I was saying, I catch you three trash pandas with the worst hairstyles imaginable assaulting your own baby sister, not just physically but verbally- but you Captain of the Silver Eagles....

He growls and points a dangerous finger at Nozel.....

Tyrus: You call yourself a damn Captain, and that's how you greet your little sister after, she nearly DIED on a mission. You... are scum. PROVE TO ME I AM WRONG, CAPTAIN NOZEL SILVA!

He takes Asta's hand who helps him on the table as he allows his fellow Black Bull to speak for the first time since this shitstorm began.

Asta: LISTEN UP! YOU WERE ALL INVITED HERE BY THE WIZARD KING, SO I FIGURED YOU WERE AT LEAST POWERFUL MAGIC KNIGHTS.... BUT YOU'RE JUST LIKE THE REST OF THEM, AREN'T YOU?!

Tyrus: Commoner, Insect, Urchin, Filth. Damnit, my brothers and I, we've been called the lowest of the low and put through the wringer when it comes to the namecalling.

Asta: BUT DO YOU THINK WE CARE WHAT THE HELL YOU THINK OF US! IF WE WANT TO FIT IN WITH YOU PEOPLE?!

Tyrus: Because the answer is a resounding no! So you better watch the hell out!

Asta: I will stack up all the merit!

Tyrus: BLOW ALL THE DOORS OFF YOUR SPOILED CANDY- AGAIN?!

Another sand magic hits the duo and Alecdora does his utmost to silence the two commoners again.

Alecdora: Like I said, that's enough out of you two! We've tolerated your presence long enough. We will not be spoken down to by your kind!

Tyrus: COSMIC FLASH!

Asta: HAHHHHHHHHHH!

A couple of slashes later and yet again his sand cyclone is destroyed.

Tyrus: YOU WILL NOT-

Asta: SILENCE US!

Tyrus: Now. Shut your mouth Lawn-Hair and all YOUUUUUUU listen well!

Asta: I'M GONNA GAIN ALL THE MERIT I CAN POSSIBLY STACK!

Tyrus: I WILL GET RESULTS LIKE THE WIZARD KING STATED!

Asta and Tyrus then exclaim as loudly as they can before they were harshly cut off by Alecdora previously.

Asta and Tyrus: I WILL BECOME THE WIZARD KING! AND PROVE YOU ALL WRONG!

(Meanwhile on the outskirts of the Kingdom)

A man with an eye patch sits forlone on a log as he exhales deeply.

???: Stupid, no... it's downright wrong! I mean me of all people, how can they kick me out? Y'know? More measured power than any royalty. Just tossed aside like garbage. It doesn't make sense, right.

The man is talking to the undead, apparently not even considering killing the eyepatched man as he continues to ramble, the zombie making all sorts of unruly noises and groans.

???: MOCK ME, WILL THEY?!

Just then a portal reveals another individual, cloaked with the same eye logo as our purple haired rambler, only this person has three eyes on his cloak.

???: Do you have an auidence for your incessant and inane rambling?

???: I'm just talking to myself... don't worry about it.

???: Well, I came to notify you... everything is set up to the way you liked. We are just waiting for you to give the word.

???: Alright... thank you. The Clover Kingdom and their wretched Magic Knights will know my power in all of its glory!

Solid: Those two.... made me kneel. A royal of House Silva bending a damn knee to commoners! You'll pay for striking back at me!

Tyrus: You failed just now, take your best shot. You pompous, arrogant, candy-ass royal brat, I'm going to do what Noelle's so afraid to any of you!

Solid: This time I won't any show mercy!

Tyrus: Trust me, winner of the worst haircut! I'm not pulling any punches either!

They ready their grimoire as Noelle begs her brother to stop before he goes too far.

Noelle: Please stop, Solid! You don't have to do this anymore-

Then the room went cold and dark freezing everyone and in their tracks as steps could be heard walking towards Tyrus and Solid. It's none other than Nozel Silva and he was pissed. How a simple demand of telling his failure of a sister to leave could devolve into all of this... madness? A disgrace on the House he was tasked in leading in addition of his Captain duties. The temperature dropped with each step he took, eyes locked on the commoner who dared strike a royal. Everyone begins to back as the room rattles off of Nozel's immense and bone-chilling aura as he looked at Solid with a look that could bury his younger right in the banquet hall.

Solid: Nozel, what're you doing?!

Tyrus wasn't going to lie, he didn't regret calling Nozel scum after letting his siblings rip into Noelle like they did and especially him stating she was the direct cause of their mothers' death. He more than anything wanted to test his might against the oldest of Acier Silva's children but man, he was thinking off of the chill factor alone, he needed to pull out.

Nozel: That's quite enough out of you, Solid. You shouldn't be so quick to use your magic against two commoners.

Solid: But they deserved-

Nozel: I said ENOUGH! Do you wish to sully the name of House Silva with your petty antics any further?

Tyrus and Asta were on the same wavelength of thinking about Nozel.

Asta: This pressure it's like Captain Yami's but instead of pure darkness. The air.... it's freezing. So this is the Captain of the Silver Eagles.

Tyrus: My cold touches to the bone but Captain Nozel's.... it touches down to the nerve. He maybe a shit brother but he's worthy of the title Magic Knight Captain. I don't regret defending Noelle one bit, but hell.... I can see why she's scared of him.

Nozel: A commoner who dares defies a royal. I wonder how I shall punish you.

Tyrus grips his sword in a fit of pure nervousness, sweatbeads accumlating around his face. He steeled himself as he spoke directly at the captain and direct relative of his teammate.

Tyrus: What you said to my teammate, your bloody family? That was punishment enough. Family should always have each other's back. I would never in my worst nightmares do that to those two over there.

He points over at Asta and Yuno as he continues.

Tyrus: Like I said I don't regret calling you scum. You don't deserve the title of older brother, for you to say Noelle killed your mother? I have never met someone more callous, more reprehenisble, void of emotion than you. If you want to have my tongue or whatever the hell you royals do, go right ahead. Just know, I WILL GO TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH TO MAKE SURE MY FAMILY, MY TEAMMATES ARE ALL GOOD! So, what you trying to get into Captain? I might die here, but not before I get my kicks in.

Noelle, Asta, Mimosa, Yuno and Klaus stand worried about what could be Tyrus's last moments alive.

Klaus: Now he's involved too? This is spinning way out of control. Tyrus, if you're smart... Please get out of there before he actually strikes.

Tyrus breathes ragged breaths as Nozel raises his hands as calming yet equally intense voice booms out.

Fuegoleon: That's quite enough, Nozel.

Tyrus: Wait that voice....

Fuegoleon stands right behind his rival.

Fuegoleon: What are you thinking, ganging up on a couple of youth like that? Have you no shame or decorum, where is your sense of honor, House Silva?

Tyrus, who takes the time back up as Asta and Noelle check on him before Leopold bumps into the two boys as belts a hearty laugh out.

Messenger: TERRIBLE NEWS!

Fuegoleon: What is it?

Messenger: SIRS.... THE ROYAL CAPITAL! IT'S UNDER ATTACK!

Just as he stated, the capital was under siege as multiple explosions boom throughout the city, smoke billowing as a byproduct as civilians ran away or were trapped by the walking undead as the same eyepatched man laughs evilly on top of a column.

Rades: BAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!

(And Now...)

The continued screams, pleas and gargles of blood could be heard all around the Clover Kingdom as hordes of the undead roamed unchecked throughout the Royal Capital. Innocents were being slaughtered, taken for hostage by the zombies or were otherwise paralyzed by fear by what they were witnessing. One person reveling in the chaos was the main man behind it now revealed to be named Rades Spirito, an once-proud but currently exiled Magic Knight.

Rades: All those who failed to recognize my worth... PREPARE TOTAL AND UTTER DESTRUCTION!!!! BAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Several spells fire off, taking out the undead, impeding their path to the innocent and gaining the attention of the twisted mage.

Mage: Such revolting creatures, I wonder where they even came from?

Mage: Attacking the Royal Capital? It's such a bold move.

Their attacks have virtually no effect on the horror show as they rear their necks right back, continuing to take damage but still marching forward to their new attackers. Horrorfied by what the security of what the Clover Kingdom Mages were seeing, they were caught off guard by what Rades would do next after they declared it was their duty to protect the Kingdom.

Rades: Yeah? YOU FILTH WON'T BE PROTECTING ANYTHING TODAY! SCUM, ALL OF YOU ARE NOTHING BUT SCUM, SCUM, SCUM!

Mage: NO! What type of power does this man possess?!

More corpses sprout up from the portals Rades summoned as they sprinted in a ungodly manner towards the defenders, soon overwhelming and killing them. Meanwhile in the banquet hall, the rivalry of Fuegoleon and Nozel having been put at full stop, all Magic Knights in attendance were stunned at the messengers terrified words.

Fuegoleon: What do you mean the Royal Capital is under attack?

Siren pulls out his grimoire as it flips to a random page.

Siren: I'll use my Stone Creation Magic: Stone Model of the World will show us what is truly going on.

Just as promised, a stone replica of the royal capital begins forming from his spellbook, amazing everyone in attendance with flames dancing around certain parts of the kingdom.

Klaus: It looks like... an actual model of the noble realm.

Asta: WHOA... SO COOL!

Tyrus: Amazing... I've never seen anything like this.

Klaus: It's even reproduced the voices of the people being affected by the horrors down there! Siren must be sending mana to a given area to here simulatenously, creating this replica we're witnessing here.

Mimosa: This spell's artistry and details far exceed anything I can create with my Magic Flower Guidepost.

Alecdora: For troops with this magic power to strike five places at once without any of us noticing...

Fuegoleon: Yes, indeed. A skilled spatial magic user must've transported them all simulatenously. Except... how can that even happen. The Noble Realm's guardian mages constantly maintain a magic barrier around it, rendering it impossible to attack via spatial magic. Were they able to find a way to circumvent through the barrier... or worse, was a guardian mage slain or turned traitor? In any case, this took any tremendous skill. We'll need to decide how to allocate our resources best if we want to dispatch this threat as quick as possible.

Alecdora: The castle area takes priority given that's where the king and the rest of the royal families stay-

Asta: WHAT'S EVERYONE WAITING FOR? PEOPLE ARE OUT THERE GETTING KILLED AND STANDING AROUND TALKING WON'T HELP!

Tyrus: I get it, Asta and I want to help too. But we still need a plan, you do realize if you go out there alone. You'll just wind up on the death toll as well?

Asta: Do you, Ty. BUT I'M OUTTA HERE!

Noelle: Asta, wait!

Klaus: Just where do you think you're going?! Like your brother just stated we don't have a grip on the situation in full yet, and what will you do when you can't detect magic power coming for you!

Asta: HEE-HEE, I'M JUST GOING TO GO WHEREEVER IT'S LOUDEST!

Klaus: JUST WHAT KIND OF ANIMAL ARE YOU?

Leopold, however shared the same exact sentiments.

Leo: HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Now we're talking, as to be expected from one of my two rivals! Wait up Asta, I wish to see you in action!

Sol: It's really amazing how silly guys can be, huh Char?

Charlotte: Yes it is.... and call me Captain.

Fuegoleon, however was less than impressed or pleased with his brother's and Asta's antics despite how noble they may have been in the moment.

Fuegoleon: Really, Leo? Must you always be such a thrill-seeking child? I can see I'm going to have to take you in hand. You can change in taking orders from me everyone, but we still must act in haste!

Everyone nodded as he continued.

Fuegoleon: I'll go after Leo and the Black Bull boy. Once I have secured them, we will head over to the north!

With his unlimited amount of mana summoning a flame lion, Fuegoleon looks intensely over at Tyrus and Noelle.

Fuegoleon: Black Bull Boy and Girl! You're with me!

Tyrus: I mean the way you say it... Can't say no. Let's get to it!

Fuegoleon: Silver Eagles! Take the Central District, that's where the enemy will no doubt be the strongest, so that's where we'll be sending our strongest unit!

Nozel: Very well.

Fuegoleon: Blue Rose Knights! Take the east!

Charlotte: As deeply as I loathe taking orders from a man, we must.

Sol: Ready when you are, Char!

Charlotte: Call me Captain, Sol.

Fuegoleon: The Golden Dawn will split into two teams. One heads to the northwest and the other will head to the west.

The teams revealed to be broken off as Mimosa, Alecdora and Yuno followed by Klaus, Siren and Hamon.

Alecdora: We will safeguard the people of the Noble Realm with our lives!

Klaus: Let's hurry!

Hamon: I hate to leave before dessert but I guess we can always come back for that!

Fuegoleon: Failure today will not be tolerated! It would not only bring shame to the Magic Knights but to the Clover Kingdom as well, DO NOT LET THE COWARDLY ENEMY THAT DARE ASSAULT OUR HOME ESCAPE!

Everyone: RIGHT!

After all had left for their assigned directions, a familiar person emerges from under one of the tables of the banquet hall. This person revealed to be none other than Charmy is seen virtually destroying a slice of pie.

Charmy: There was just a big chaos about nothing here earlier and ever, but now something really strange looks like it's going down! Well then, it's time to make a grand Charmy entrance! Who knows maybe if I do well, I'll get something even tastier!

Just as she finished her monologue, a delectable and mouth-watering scent entangles with her five senses as the glutton Charmy Pappitson begins her investigation.

(Central District)

More explosions and smoke clouds can be seen in the distance as the hordes close in on a group of citizenry.

Male: Y-You won't get away with this!

Male: What do you want? You want this?! HERE YOU CAN TAKE IT!

Just as a zombie was about to eat one of the citizens, a bullet at full speed strikes the undead flesh, from the top up. They look up to see an eagle soaring across the flame and smoke riddled sky and three individuals drop to the cobblestone. It was the Silva trio ready for action and to teach the undead a lesson. Another group of civilians were making a break for it as a group of mummified remains were hot on their trails before a mud golem slams its fists into the horde as Sol reveals to be the source of disruption as Charlotte reprimands her.

Charlotte: Do be careful, Sol. There are still civilians down here.

Sol: Right, sorry. My bad, Char.

Charlotte: Just do better next time like I know you can. And call me Captain.

Next just like the Blue Rose Knights, the Golden Dawn found themselves ambushing another yet larger group of the undead as Alecdora plunges down and rips them apart with a devastating earthquake like sand attack.

Alecdora: THIS COWARDLY INVASION ENDS RIGHT HERE AND NOW! SCATTER BEFORE OUR MAGIC!

Meanwhile Fuegoleon with Noelle and Tyrus in his stead were in search of his brother Leo and the latter's in Asta so far with little to no success, as Noelle remarked at what the three were looking at.

Noelle: What.... are they?

Tyrus: If I didn't know any better.... it looks like the undead come back to life.

Fuegoleon: Very sharp, young one. It appears to be an army of it too, but who could wield such magic and power to even command the non-living? I've never seen magic like this.

Tyrus: Better question, where are our brothers in that mess?

Like clockwork, flames were scattered around the northern district as a new horde of undead led by Rades were surrounding a young girl, toy in hand as she had to have to been separated from her parents or even worse, thanks to the undead was a newly minted orphan. She cowers, understandably so at her life and death situation.

Rades: Tell me little girl. Do you like it here in the Clover Kingdom?

Young Girl: Yes, Yes I do! I love it here!

Unfortunately for her, that's what Rades wanted to hear in bloodlusted and demented mind as she begged him to stop his madness but all she got was a sickening smile.

Rades: WELL I CAN'T! I HATE IT HERE IN THE CLOVER KINGDOM. SO ONE BY ONE, I AM GOING TO TAKE THIS KINGDOM, ITS PEOPLE AND THIS TOWN.... AND YOU! AND DESTROY IT ALL! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Rades then closed in on her, God only knowing what he was planning to do to her before several slicing and dicing motions took over and another person stands on guard for the pure innonence. It's Asta and he doesn't look too pleased.

Asta: ALRIGHT THEN. THEN I'M GOING TO PROTECT THEM!
