Summary
As Asta, Noelle, Nozel, Mimosa, Mereoleona, and Fuegoleon head through the hole to the Shadow Palace, they are all confused when they enter the space that leads to the Shadow Palace. As they wonder about the strange mana surrounding them and think that they have fallen into a trap, Nozel informs them that the Shadow Palace it the border between the living world and the afterlife. After hearing this Asta wonder if they are going to die, which Noelle tells him to not say anything idiotic like that.

Once they reach the Shadow Palace, Asta hits the floor and wonders about the other when Mimosa lands on him. Mimosa quickly apologizes to Asta and uses her magic to heal him. As Mimosa is healing Asta, they notices that the others are not with them and wonders where they all are. Once Asta is healed, Asta notices that he can use her black form again and thanks Mimosa. Mimosa then uses her magic to create a layout of the Shadow Palace, which Asta thinks about how amazing Mimosa is. Once Mimosa create the Shadow Palace layout, they find out that their are large room within the Shadow Palace that each have an elf in it. They also find out that they are currently in a passage that leads to one of those rooms. Mimosa then says that everyone else was sent to another location, and that they will have to defeat the elves in order to meet up with everyone else. Mimosa also says that the elves boss is currently at the top of the Shadow Palace, which Asta figures that its Licht. Asta then says that they will just have to defeat all the enemies and rendezvous at the top were the boss is.

Asta and Mimosa then head up to a room and as they reach it, Asta thinks about how they are going to have to defeat their opponent no matter what. Asta notices that the room is full of painting, which they are both then greeted by Lira. Lira informs them that he will be using them to practice his painting magic, until the final magic stone is put in place. As Asta confuses him for Rill, which Lira says that they have met before and that he is Lira. Asta says that he is going to wake him up soon, which Lira replies that he is already awake and that his painting magic is fun. Lira also says that it took awhile to be used to the magic and that its much better they his scribbling magic from long ago. As all the paintings come to life, Lira says that they are going to paint a brand new world on a blank canvas after they erase all the humans. Asta gets ready for battle and says that this is not going to be easy after all.

In another room, Noelle wonders why she is all alone when someone says that they will keep her company. Noelle notices the person and wonder why she is here. Fana descends with a pair of flaming wings, and says that she doesn't think that Noelle will last long with her. In another room, Vetto notices that his opponent is Mereoleona and says that she has got some interesting mana for being royalty. Mereoleona replies that she is going to have to teach Vetto some manner, which Vetto responds that they are not some beasts to be disciplined by humans. At another room, Fuegoleon says that he would have never believed that he would be facing the kingdom ultimate shield, Kaiser, like this. The elf says that Fuegoleon doesn't need to hold back since they don't know each other, which Fuegoleon agrees and says that holding back would be disrespectful.
