As Asta and Yuno dedicate themselves to the final fight, it appears that they have managed to defeat Lucius, but the outcome is far from definitive. Furthermore, signs point to the possible return of Lucius' brothers, members of the feared Dark Triad .
Is the Dark Triad coming back?
In chapter 377 , we see Asta and Yuno advancing towards the core of Lucius' gigantic spell in the Clover Kingdom. Inside the immense spiritual tree , Lucius appears seated on a throne, before the defeated bodies of his brothers, the Zogratis . Amidst the scene, four heartbeats are heard, suggesting that Lucius may be preparing to revive the Dark Triad.
With their abilities enhanced, Asta and Yuno begin to even out the fight against Lucius's overwhelming power. Zetten technique in the Land of the Sun , manages to land a well-aimed blow, while Yuno attacks with the powerful Saint Spirit of Boreas . Despite appearing to defeat Lucius, the heartbeat heard at the end of chapter 378 indicates that the confrontation is not over yet.
What will be the role of the Dark Triad in the end?
In the invasion of the Spade Kingdom, the Zogratis brothers used their demonic powers to the fullest, but were defeated by Asta and the Magic Knights. Now, Lucius may be planning to revive them, perhaps with Paladin abilities, or using their energies to fuel his own powers.
