Lucius Zogratis Gets Even More Powerful
Even though Lucius was already quite difficult to defeat, the new chapters ofBlack Cloverwill give the villain an unimaginable power-up. One of the biggest revelations inBlack Clover’s chapters 379 and 380 is tied to the origin of the grimoires, as it is stated that they return to the grimoire towers after the death of their owners, but they still retain a part of their soul imprint on them. This is the medium that Lucius has been using to bring back deceased mages as paladins.
However, asLucius has now linked himself with the Grimore Towers in the Clover Kingdom, he has access to countless magic from all the deceased mages, multiplying his strength in an unbelievable way.Lucius’s power to copy multiple magics gives him an incredible advantage in battle, making it harder for Asta and Yuno now that he can’t use his powers due to Licita’s resurrection.
Moreover, while the chapter will delve into how Lucius managed to resurrect Licita, it has also been revealed that Lucius' defeated paladins might be back as a different type of creature that will give trouble to the mages that continue to fight, teasing that some lives might be lost in the upcoming chapters. Nevertheless, fans should wait until the official release ofBlack Clover’s chapters 379 and 380 to know what greater dangers the story will bring for Asta and his friends.
