The episode begins with Asta and the others traveling through a dense forest towards the Diamond Kingdom stronghold. They are on high alert as they know that the Eye of the Midnight Sun is a dangerous group with powerful magic at their disposal. Suddenly, they come across a group of beasts, some of which are wounded and are in desperate need of medical attention. Asta is immediately struck by their suffering and insists on helping them before moving forward with the mission.

As they tend to the injured beasts, they come to know their tragic backstory. These beasts were once human and were transformed into monstrous creatures by the experiments of the Diamond Kingdom. They were then abandoned and left to fend for themselves. Asta and his comrades are appalled by the cruel treatment of these creatures and vow to help them even if it means risking their own lives.

Meanwhile, in the Diamond Kingdom stronghold, the captured citizens are being guarded by the Eye of the Midnight Sun. Asta and his comrades devise a plan to rescue them without alerting the guards. However, things go awry when a stray beast causes chaos in the stronghold, attracting the attention of the guards.

Asta and his fellow Magic Knights are forced to confront the guards in a fierce battle. They utilize their unique magical abilities to take down the enemy, but the fight is far from over. As they make their way towards the captives, they are intercepted by a powerful mage from the Eye of the Midnight Sun.

The mage is revealed to be a former member of the Diamond Kingdom who defected to the Eye of the Midnight Sun. He possesses a powerful curse magic that renders Asta's sword useless. Asta is left defenseless and is about to be defeated when a surprising ally comes to his rescue.

In the end, Asta and his comrades manage to rescue the captives and defeat the Eye of the Midnight Sun. They also manage to save the wounded beasts and bring them to safety. As they make their way back to the Clover Kingdom, they reflect on the importance of standing up for what is right and fighting for those who cannot fight for themselves.

Overall, Black Clover season 1 episode 26 is a thrilling and action-packed episode that showcases the bravery and compassion of Asta and his comrades. With its stunning visuals and heartwarming storytelling, it is sure to captivate audiences and leave them eager for more.
