Asta's Adventure

Two weeks had passed since the last events. After David and Asta had finished all their business in Kikke, they headed towards the royal capital. The journey there was calm, unlike other lands, as the capital is located in the noble lands, home to the three royal families: the Kiri family, the Vermillion family, and the Silva family.

As they approached the city, David began to talk about it.

— The city is located at the summit of the highest mountain in the Kingdom of Clover. A wall separates it from the rest of the Kingdom of Nobles, and a magical barrier protects it.

The city houses the Clover Castle and the Headquarters of the Magic Knights.

— Clover Castle is the residence of the three royal families of the Kingdom of Clover and is located in the royal capital.

The castle stands on an elevated plot of land above the rest of the royal capital and is surrounded by a large wall with a series of towers along its top. The only entrance is a row of gates with stairways leading down to the royal capital.

The castle is divided into three sections, each belonging to one of the royal families. From the main gates, directly towards the Kiri estate, to the right is the Silva estate, and to the left is the Vermillion estate.

David was about to continue, but Asta interrupted him.

— You've said enough, let's just go.

They arrived at night, and at the gates, they encountered a strict security check, but once again, thanks to David, they managed to pass through quickly.

At this time, Secre decided to take a nap. She hadn't slept for a long time, so while sitting on Asta's head, she closed her eyes and began to fall asleep.

Asta, seeing this, tried to be quieter than usual, but still barely held back his admiration for how beautiful and powerful the capital looked.

After wandering around for a while, David decided to lead Asta in a certain direction.

— What's this? — Asta asked, holding a strange round object in his hand. — Is this a candy?

— Almost. It's a candy for girls, — David answered.

— And they make these? — Asta asked, making a thoughtful expression.

At that moment, they walked into a certain alley, and as they proceeded through it, the light from the lamps shifted from yellow to red. A strange smell and voices began to be heard. At this point, David spoke to Asta:

— Today's the day, Asta, when you'll become a man.

— Really? I'll become a real man? — Asta replied loudly, with stars in his eyes.

Because of Asta's loud voice, Secre woke up and felt something strange. She quickly flew off of Asta's head and, exploring the new surroundings, saw naked women in the streets and heard sounds coming from different buildings. She realized where they were.

David then introduced Asta to this place.

— Welcome to the only Red Light District street in Clover.
