eaks and spoilers for “Black Clover” chapter 268 are finally out confirming that fans are about to learn more about Asta’s Anti-Magic Devil. The next installment will also reveal how the devil met the mystery woman, who has been presumed as Asta’s mother.

‘Black Clover’ chapter 268 leaks, spoilers: How the mystery woman met Asta’s Anti-Magic Devil

The previous chapter ended by presenting a new character, who previously told the Anti-Magic Devil that is not a bad guy despite being a devil. Because the mystery woman looks like Asta, most fans assumed she was his mother. But it was somewhat clear that she was part of the Anti-Magic Devil’s memories, and “Black Clover” chapter 268 will reveal more about how they were related in the past.

Thanks to leaked pages of “Black Clover” chapter 268, it is confirmed that the manga will dive into the past specifically during the childhood of the Anti-Magic Devil. The leaked copy is in Japanese, but fan translations indicate that Asta’s devil used to be isolated from other of his kind when he was a child. When he stumbled upon humans, he was shunned and left for dead, and that when the mystery woman found him and took care of him.

One of the pages in “Black Clover” chapter 268 shows the Anti-Magic Devil was taken care of by the same woman even after he was healed. The things they did together made it seem like she treated him like a son. However, Lucifero took over the body of the Anti-Magic Devil one day and impaled the woman that led to her death. This explains why Asta’s devil was enraged at the time they faced the Dark Triad in an earlier chapter.

The woman appears to be fighting the devil and later seals him in a grimoire. Based on the currently available leaks, it does not seem like the identity of the woman will be revealed so the question of whether or not she is Asta’s mother lingers. However, some fans pointed out that she was seen leaving a basket that looks similar to where Asta was placed when he was abandoned as a child.

‘Black Clover’ chapter 268 release date, where to read

These are exciting times for the long-time fans of the manga since the identity of Asta’s devil has been one of the biggest unanswered questions since the series started. Fortunately, “Black Clover” chapter 268 will be released a little early this week. Fans will not have to wait until Sunday because new chapters from Weekly Shonen Jump issue #46 will be available online on Friday, Oct. 16 through Manga Plus and VIZ Shonen Jump.
