The upcoming Black Clover Chapter 269 will drop a big revelation that may stop Asta and Liebe's intense battle. The disclosure may also incite the two's alliance to bring the devils down together.
According to Devdiscourse, Black Clover Chapter 269 will feature the beginning of the Black Bull vs. Dark Trial war. Dante, Vanica, and Zenon are the dark triad leaders who remain to have a personal connection with Asta, Yuno, and Noelle.
Dante's devil is responsible for killing Asta's mother, Lichita, and Vancia's devil killed Noelle's mom, while Zenon killed several Golden Dawn members and even kidnapped Vangeance.
In addition, Black Clover Chapter 269 may take the manga series' storyline further to explore Asta's back story. It may show how he was raised as an orphan after his mother left him.
There are also a lot of things that it may reveal, like his mother "having a curse of stealing mana powers." Also, it may show how AMD tries to take control.
EconoTimes added Black Clover Chapter 269 would drop a big twist. Asta and Liebe will learn they are brothers. After they learn the truth, they may eventually stop their fight.
Lichita raised Liebe after he was left alone in the human world. They acted as mother and son. Lichita even died for him, protecting him from Lucifero.
Her death pushed Liebe to be the "bad devil" he's today. He wanted to avenge the mother he knew and defeat Lucifero and other devils in the world.
Fans may see Asta and Liebe continuously fight as the latter wants to take over the protagonist's body to face Lucifero. Although they are not brothers by blood, when they learned they have the same mother, they may stop their brawl and form an alliance to fight the devils together instead.
Black Clover Chapter 269 is set to be out on Sunday, October 25, per the provided schedule of Viz Media's Shone Jump section. However, its release time varies in every region. HITC noted fans expect the new chapter to drop at midnight Japan Standard Time.
If this will be the time that the new installment will be out, its English translation may be made available a few hours later. Fans may see what will happen next to Asta and Liebe at 9 a.m. Pacific Time, 11 a.m. Central Time, noon Eastern Time, and 5 p.m. British Time. However, these times may change without prior notice.
