The kingdom has sent a powerful magic user known as Lotus Whomalt to take out the Black Bulls, but the members of the squad refuse to back down without a fight.

Asta and his fellow Black Bulls are initially caught off-guard by the Diamond Kingdom's attack, but they quickly band together to fend off Lotus Whomalt's magical attacks.
