Asta vs. Revchi Salik

Asta vs. Lebuty is a fight that occurs in the aftermath of the grimoire acceptance ceremony.

Pre-Fight
Later evening after the grimoire acceptance ceremony held, Asta was seen hanging above a tree, reminiscing of him and Yuno's agreement and declaration of rivalry but later brushed it off. Near him, Yuno appeared, staring absent-mindedly at the door, and was suddenly chained by a person, who snatched his grimoire, leaving him immobilized and unarmed. The shady character introduces himself as Lebuty, but was interrupted by another person.

Fight
Asta appears, who tries to save his periled friend. Knowing Asta has imminent magic capacity, he tried to chain him up. Asta barely dodges, but was overpowered by Lebuty's Dance of the Pitless Viper. Lebuty came closer to the injured latter, telling him he could identify one's magic power when intact with his chains, and stated he has zero, as if he was a born loser.

Yuno suddenly spoke from behind, defensing Asta wasn't a loser. Remembering his past that made them fight for the sorcerer emperor throne, Yuno exclaimed Asta is his rival. Lebuty replied with a disagreed face, but this made Asta get up, growing his rage to beat Lebuty.

A grimoire came out from the castle, appearing in front of a surprised Asta. Yuno even stated that he knew Asta not getting any tome is ridiculous. A sword rose from the 5-leafed clover book, freed himself from the chains and slashes now-startled Lebuty by using the sword. The opponent was slashed back to the wall, assuring it was defeated.

Post-Fight
Asta claims victory, and was glad to finally have a grimoire, although he did not notice the imprints on its cover is the five-leaf clover. Yuno was then freed, thanked Asta and told him he would someday pay him back. The two then agreed to continue what they started, reinforcing what they promised with each other.
