Summary
Licht says that this place is about to collapse and that they will be leaving now. Licht also says that they will be taking Karna Freese with them and bids them farewell. Licht then says that if they manage to live, then he hopes that they will meet again. Licht engulfs his allies within a light, which Asta wonders what is going on. Vetto says that he has gotten his life back and that he will execute them next time. Freese tells them to enjoy their life for the time being since the day the Clover Kingdom will come to an end will come soon. Yami tells Karna to wait but is to injured to do anything. Licht then releases a flash of light, which Asta notices that the enemies has disappeared.

Asta is confused about what has happened, but remembers that the dungeon is collapsing. Yuno asks Sylph if he would be able to transport everyone out of the dungeon, which Sylph says that they can but she doesn't know the route or that they would make it out in time. Asta says that they have no choice but to do it and that they are going to escape.

As the rubble starts to fall on them, Magna Swing and Mimosa Vermillion show up and Magna uses a Exploding Buckshot spell to destroy the rubble. Magna asks if they are okay, which Asta is glad to see the two. Magna explains that they has sensed some evil magic within the dungeon and came to see what had happened. Magna wonders what had happened to them, which Asta says that various of things had happened. Mimosa says that they have to leave this place immediately and that she can find the quickest route to the exit with her Magic Flower Guidepost. Magna then uses his Crazy Cyclone to get Mimosa and Asta out of the Dungeon, while Yuno uses his Heavenly Wind Ark to get Yami Sukehiro and Klaus Lunettes out.

Once they are out, the dungeon explodes. Asta compliments Magna now his timing for getting them out of there, but Asta falls unconscious which Magna starts to worry about Asta. Mimosa says that everyone is worn-out, and wonders what happened in the dungeon. Magna says that this is something that they can manage with their current level and that they will have to contact the Magic Emperor. Yami wonders what had happened to Karna and that he will get her back since she is his comrades.
