Transcripts - Forever Dreaming

In Clover Kingdom

where magic determines everything,

the only boy who cannot use magic

is called Asta.

With hard work and determination,
he joins the Magic Knights.

Despite being wounded and bruised,
he is still determined

to keep fighting towards his goal
with all his might.

Peasants or nobles,

poor or rich,

anyone in this world can shine.

He's working hard to prove that

and to become the Magic Emperor.

Even in the hardest-hit areas
of the Forsaken Realm,

restoration work is coming along smoothly.

The kingdom's full revival seems
to be just around the corner.

To make this a lasting peace
rather than a short period of stability,

we must keep growing stronger.

It's almost time.

We have the captain's meeting
and a w*r Merits Conferment Ceremony.

It's going to be a busy day.

Yes.

Today's agenda

is the selection of candidates
who will train at Heart Kingdom.

We have an agreement
with Heart Kingdom's queen.

The battle with Spade Kingdom
is quickly approaching.

I'm sure all Magic Knights
are training day and night.

We received word from Heart Kingdom
that the preparations are ready

for the final stage of our training.

There are five Spirit Guardians
who will assist us.

Each Spirit Guardian can only train
a limited amount of people.

Therefore, priority will be given
to the captains' recommendations.

Do any of you have anyone in mind?

I recommend Asta and Nero from my squad,

though they were already chosen
by the Heart Kingdom.

Asta, who uses Anti Magic,

and Nero, who uses Forbidden Magic
to cast ancient Sealing Magic,

are both Arcane Stage mages.

We already know from previous battles that

their powers worked best
against the devil.

I hope they can gain further mastery
over their powers through this training.

My squad will also be sending
Finral, Luck, and Noelle.

What's the matter? Do you mind?

You don't show it,
but you really care about your sister.

I'm sending Luck and Noelle

because their magic attributes
complement each other.

Heart Kingdom
has the Spirit Guardian of lightning

and the queen commands
the Water Spirit, Undine.

Luck has a lightning attribute
and Noelle has a water attribute,

so it's perfect.

It goes without saying that
Luck is always raring to go,

but even Noelle seems excited.

The enemy, Megicula, is the one
who k*lled her mother after all.

As for Finral,

he is handy to have around.

If he can level up
his already strong support capability,

our overall combat power
will be increased.

He might even inspire
new combat strategies.

Yes, that's exactly what I meant.

So Black Bull will be sending Asta, Nero,

Noelle Silva, Luck Voltia,

and Finral Roulacase.

That's a lot of people.

We have a lot of members
who have room to grow.

Anyway, I'm sending them.

From Golden Dawn,

I'm recommending Mimosa Vermillion.

The enemy has the devil on their side.

We are bound to encounter
grim battle conditions.

Healing mages will play a key role
in case anything happens.

On top of that, she is a royal.

She possesses unfathomable potential.

Exploring her potential will be
highly beneficial for the kingdom.

I see.

Will it just be Mimosa?

The Spirit Guardian of wind
will be participating in the training.

Yuno declined.

Perhaps he has his own reasons.

Can we hear recommendations
from other squads?

Crimson Lion will recommend
Leopold Vermillion.

Leo is highly motivated.

He even voluntarily underwent
special training with Mereoleona

in a volcano in a Grand Magic Zone.

That must have been hellish.

Although Leo's efforts and perseverance
are unmatched in the squad,

he remains uncertain.

I hope that training in another kingdom
will ignite a new flame in him

that will incinerate his doubts.

If he can accomplish this goal,

we will see a heroic performance from him
in the battle against Spade Kingdom

and he will become a true lion king
who guards our kingdom's future!

I see.

Let us look forward to his growth.

What about the other squads?

Anyone from the Blue Rose?

I would like to confirm one thing first.

Can captains participate as well?

Sure, no problem.

Personally,

I think that someone like you
who was possessed by an elf

might produce interesting results.

My body still remembers
the feeling of using that mana

when the elf possessed me.

That magic of red roses was far stronger
than my current magic.

I will have to do whatever it takes
to fight against the devil.

No matter what, I need to experience
something similar again!

No!

That's not the experience I meant!

So Blue Rose will be sending
their captain. Is that correct?

Yes.

What about the other squads?

I've been having a hard time deciding,

but I think I should give priority
to the younger ones.

I agree.

I have a clear idea
of how to train myself.

I wouldn't mind going
if I get to slice and dice Heart Kingdom.

No, you are not going.

I reckon the training
will be very rigorous,

but you'll get exposure to the knowledge
we don't have here and new discoveries.

That will broaden your horizons.

I hope you will use it
to improve yourself.

My…

These will all become my meals!

I'd like you to train hard every day
and continuously improve yourself.

Train. Protein.

This is for the protein!

All of you have an amazing aptitude.

-I hope you'll all realize your potential.
-Fat.

This is for the fat!

For vitamins!

For fiber!

For collagen!

Yes! Me!

You sure are energetic.

Why are you suddenly so fired up?

I'm recommending myself for Azure Deer!

I must train to become stronger

and become a man that she approves of!

I think that should be enough people.

How about other squads?

Silver Eagle will be staying
in the kingdom to train.

We'll improve our skills to a point
where we can fight against Spade Kingdom.

Same with my squad.

We'll also train in our own way!

Then does everybody approve
of the recommended members?

-Yes.
-Yes.

Okay. I look forward
to seeing the results of your training.

-Yes.
-Yes.

This concludes
the Magic Knights' captain's meeting.

It's finally over.

Goodbye.

Where are you going?

We have the special w*r Merits
Conferment Ceremony to attend.

What? Do I have to go?

My chauffeur is waiting for me.

Besides, none of my squad members
were selected.

Weren't we told that all
the squad captains have to be present?

What? Why?

Everyone,

it's because the king
will attend the ceremony.

What?

All the captains are here.

Such an overwhelming presence!

All the captains must be here
because they knew I was coming.

How thoughtful of them.

I'm standing way too close to him.

This disguise won't work for long.

Captain Jack!

Please take me back to your squad.

What is he doing?

How annoying.

How about I slice you up?

It seems like everyone is here.

Get on with it.

We will now begin the special
w*r Merits Conferment Ceremony

to award the Magic Knights

who fought exceptionally
against the Eye of the Midnight Sun.

The Magic Emperor's throat
hasn't recovered yet,

so I will be speaking on his behalf.

First up,

with stars acquired,

is Sol Marron of the Blue Rose.

You have been awarded the title
of th Class Senior Magic Knight.

Your calmness and valiant decisions

brought the dying Magic Emperor
to a safe place.

Please continue to use your judgment
and initiative on the b*ttlefield.

She jumped three classes at once.

That's because she saved
the Magic Emperor's life.

The promotion reflects her performance.

I was anything but calm at the time.

It was Black Bull's captain
who saved Charlotte.

From now on, I won't count on
a man again to protect Charlotte!

Hey.

Your squad member
seems to be glaring at me.

Not my problem.

Is she staring at Yami?

Don't tell me Sol also likes Yami!

A passionate stare from Charlotte!

I will work hard
to live up to her expectations!

With stars acquired,

we have Mimosa Vermillion of Golden Dawn.

You have been awarded the title
of nd Class Intermediate Magic Knight.

In the battle at the Shadow Palace,

you placed the lives of others first

and brought out the importance
of your role as a healing mage.

We anticipate that you will
save more lives in the future.

Because of Mimosa's active role,

it seems that healing mages have become
even more important as well.

I will be worthy of this medal

and contribute to the w*r
against Spade Kingdom.

With stars acquired,

Leopold Vermillion of Crimson Lion.

You have been awarded the title
of th Class Senior Magic Knight.

In the absence
of both former and new captains,

you inspired your squad

and went all out to stop
your vice-captain, a reincarnated elf.

Please continue to use your prestige
to boost morale on the b*ttlefield

and lead everyone to victory.

Lord Leopold also skipped three classes.

Please allow me to decline this award!

At the time,

the entire squad would've been wiped out
if Fuegoleon hadn't appeared.

I fought with all my strength,
but I was powerless.

Everyone tried to protect me
at the expense of their own lives.

Someone like me…

A failure like me
doesn't deserve this title!

Fool!

Why did they risk their own lives
to protect you?

Isn't it because they were inspired
by your heroism and saw hope in you?

They entrust you
with the future of Crimson Lion!

This title

contains the resolve and hopes
that the squad risked their lives for!

Resolve and hope.

I, Leopold Vermillion,
will not disgrace this title!

I will protect my squad
from any enemy we face

and become a lion king
who can lead everyone to victory!

Yuno of the Golden Dawn.

Yes.

You acquired stars.

Amazing!

How many stars did
the Azure Deer have last time?

Yuno of the Golden Dawn,

you have been awarded the title of
st Class Senior Magic Knight.

-What?
-What?

-What?
-Haha?

Did he just say
st Class Senior Magic Knight?

This peasant?

He used his phenomenal magic

to fatally injure the nefarious devil.

We expect great things from you.

Yes.

He is now on the same rank
as Vice-Captain Langris!

He is suddenly at a level that is
only second to a captain!

I don't get it,

but you are coming out on top.

That's my Yuno!

Let's celebrate by going on a date--

A st Class Senior Magic Knight.

I'm one step closer to my dream.

These four members…

Wait a minute!

-What?
-What?

This sounds like
it'll be a pain in the ass.

Be quiet, Yami.

He is still the king.

What do you mean "still"?

The one who did the most
during this mayhem hasn't been commended!

The hero who guarded
the most important person in this kingdom!

What?

This person right here, Sekke Bronzazza!

Haha!

Every one of you left me,
the king, in the lurch

and some morons among you
even dared to attack me!

I wonder who did that.

Who knows?

Sekke is the true hero!
The quintessence of the Magic Knights!

During that intense battle,

he dodged the enemy att*cks
and rushed to my side.

He is the one who made
the greatest contributions in this battle!

SOME CLAIMS MAY DEVIATE FROM REALITY.

I just happened to be there!

Using my authority as king, I grant Sekke…

the title of
st Class Senior Magic Knight!

-What?
-What?

A st Class Senior Magic Knight?

What's happening right now?

If that peasant can be
a st Class Senior Magic Knight,

then I'll promote Sekke to the same rank.

What is this?

Their overwhelming disapproval
is undeniable!

They will k*ll me!

As a newly-promoted
st Class Senior Magic Knight,

I, Sekke Bronzazza,

vow to battle all enemies
and attain victory

and I take pride

in protecting the Clover Kingdom!

So please spare my life!

Shall we conclude the ceremony now?

Yes. All of you must follow
Sekke's example

and make my protection your priority.

Understand?

I'm safe for now.

Now let's continue.

In addition to those five members,

all who have done their best
during the battle

will be promoted to one class rank.

I see.

That's why all the captains
had to be present.

So it wasn't because
the king was going to be here.

The Magic Emperor's thoughtfulness
inspires sincere admiration.

The Magic Knights who have
risked their lives are being rewarded.

If a certain squad hadn't interfered
with a Magic Parliament trial,

many of its members
would have been promoted too.

Although they weren't promoted this time,

they will be awarded a special medal.

Captain Yami Sukehiro of Black Bull.

What? Do I get an award?

I hope you will act
with prudence from now on

and make good use of your squad's unity.

What? It's not money?

Whatever. Thank you.

This concludes the special
w*r Merits Conferment Ceremony.

Lastly, I will now read
a message from the Magic Emperor.

"Our kingdom is gradually recovering from
the Eye of the Midnight Sun's att*cks,

but the threat of the Spade Kingdom

-looms over us."
-Looms over us."

I will expect more from those
who have received new titles.

Those who didn't receive a promotion
must train hard with a new mindset.

I hope all the Magic Knights
will stand united

to protect this kingdom and its people.

-Yes!
-Yes!

We are back!

Over here!

Damn you!

Stop dodging!

It looks like
you can't keep up with me at all!

Welcome back, Captain Yami and Finral!

You guys are so noisy.

Take the training outside.

Hey, Luck!

Yes?

Take this!

You are being sent to the Heart Kingdom.

Really?

Has it finally been decided?

Our squad is sending you, Nero,

Finral, Luck, and Noelle.

Finral is going too?

I am.

I'm going to stir up trouble
at Heart Kingdom!

Yes, wreak havoc then.

Please let me…

Please let me go too!

He is going!

So how can I stay home?

I have to get way stronger than him!

Sorry, but this has been decided
during the captain's meeting.

Please! Let me go!

He is always running ahead of me,

but I'm a real man and I will not
be left in the dust this time!

Even if you tell me not to go,
I'd still go!

Given your level of magic,

you won't be able to keep up
unless you go all out.

Can you do it?

I can!

The amount of magic I have doesn't matter!

I'll show you that I can surpass
the limits of a peasant!

Fine. I'll try asking Sir Julius.

But remember this.

The important thing isn't where you train,

but how you train.

-Got it?
-Yes!

This is great, Magna!

It would be boring
if I was the only one getting stronger.

That's right!

I'll definitely catch up with you!

All right, Finral, Magna, and Luck!

Let's all train hard at Heart Kingdom!

-Yes!
-Yes!

You rose through the ranks in one go!

You are so cool!

You'll have the Magic Emperor's position
in no time!

That's impossible.

It won't be that easy.

But one day…

One day, I will.

Asta, I'm going to take my own path

to become the Magic Emperor.

Black Clover, Page ,

"Vice-Captain Langris Vaude."

You'll get hurt

if you don't go all-out when you fight me.
