~Love Is Black~ (Asta X Male reader)

4

Y/n arrived at the line to the entrance exams. It was crowded, and extremely loud. Y/n could barely hear his own thoughts over sounds of people bumping around into each other to get where they were going. He carefully pushed past them finally reaching the start of the line. "Hey, how long have you been in line?" y/n said, grabbing the attention of the man in front of him. "It's going to take a while," the man said with a smirk. Y/n groaned and ran a hand through his (h/c) hair, feeling the heat radiating off it from the harsh sun. When he finally reached the front of the line after a long wait but eagerly stepped up to register. The writing on a clipboard smiled slightly asking "Can I see your grimoire?". Y/n dug into his bag feeling for the smooth cover of his book, eventually pulling it out to the man. "Wow, that's quite a book!" The man complimented. "T-thanks" y/n said. After getting his information y/n walked to join the others waiting for the exam to start. There definitely weren't as many people there as there was outside, it was quieter. Probably in anticipation. Y/n adjusted his hood to block the sun from beating down on his face while he waited. His attention was grabbed by the sudden sound of fluttering, birds? "Hmm.." y/n extended an arm out feeling the birds small talons land directly on them. "Hahah those anti-birds love you!" A stranger said from a few feet away. Y/n ignored them, dragging a finger of the birds soft feathers. "AGHH GET OFF!". Y/n turned his head towards the screams and loud fluttering, someone here must really lack mana. "Oh shit did you see that!" The man said. "No" y/n said in annoyance. "That magic-less loser just got his ass handed to him by Yami, the captain of the blackbulls". "Magicless?" Y/n thought to himself. As Vangence started the exams y/n dropped his arms to catch the broom given to him, the ant-birds flying away quickly.

Y/n put a foot over the broom, slowly levitating into the air. "Woah.." y/n said feeling his feet leave the ground. It was a simple test that passed quickly, except for the one kid who couldn't get his broom moving. For the last test they were free to pick their own dueling partner. Y/n looked around towards the many voices that surrounded him, suddenly feeling the pressure of the loneliness that plagued him. "Hey do you wanna duel?". Y/n turned to the sound of the voice, recognizing it as the man who teased him about the anti-birds. "Actually yeah I do.." y/n replied, "good, then we don't have to hold back! Lets give this crowd a show!" The man spoke cheerfully extending his arms out. They waited patiently for their turn, luckily being one of the firsts to go up. Y/n walked to his start postion, looking into the direction of his opponent mana. Nothing impressive really. "You know it would be safer for everyone if you just went home, considering your... disability " . "Are you scared it lose to a blind person?" y/n asked with a smirk. The man growled slightly, tapping his foot impatiently.

Asta leaned against the wall watching the two strangers walk towards the center of the arena. "Yuno?". "Hmm?". "Doesn't that guy look crazy familiar?" Asta spoke while pointing towards the man who's hood covered most of his features. "I can't tell.." Yuno muttered while crossing his arms. "START!". The man standing across from the hooded figure pulled two katanas from his grimoire, both of them beaming with energy. "Close combat person huh?" Y/n said while taking a few steps back. "I'd hate to do this to you but we all got mouths to feed". Y/n listened intently as the man barreled forward, swords ready to cut down the other male. Asta turned his head to Yuno who also now looked absorbed into the fight, his golden eyes locked on the hooded figure as he raised his grimoire into the air. "He certainly sounds familiar" Yuno muttered. "RIGHT!?" Asta agreed. As the sword came swinging down y/n tilted his head dodging the blow, and the next one, and the next one. "Hold still!" The man yelled, "You need to work on your form" y/n said while stopping the blade his the bottom of his boot. "HOW DO YOU KNOW?" the man yelled getitng even more frustrated. Y/n dodged the next blow, delivering a fierce kick to the mans chest sending him strumbling onto his back. "Spirit magic: Lion". Everyone watched in disbelief as a translucent (f/c) lion zoomed past y/n pinning the man down to the ground, roaring loudly in his face. "I-i yield stop!" The man yelled in fear. With that the lion faded from existance with a few sparkles and the crowd erupted into cheers and excitement. Y/n promptly turned and returned to his spot, sitting ontop of a box patiently. "HOLY CRAP, THAT WAS AMAZING!" Asta cheered while Yuno kept his attention focused on the victor while the two waited for their turn. When it was over y/n walked to the center, shaking in anticipation for his resaults having felt like he did pretty well. "Let me start by saying we don't typically accept those with a disability as severe as yours but you've proven that it has no effect on your ability" William spoke. Y/n smiled slightly, feeling an overwhelming sense of pride. Already feeling like he had achieved the impssible. "Those who are willing to accept y/n l/n please raise your hand"

Y/n stood overwhelmed by the silence as for a moment no captains moved, mumbling and whispering a few things to each other. Y/n could feel it, William was raising his hand and soon captain Yami followed. He couldn't believe it, the captain of the golden dawn. The best magic knights squad in the clover kingdom wanted him, a blind kid from Hage to join his squad. Y/n knew what he had come do however. "I appreciate your offer captain Vangeance but I will be joining the black bulls!" Y/n spoke. The captain looked visably surprised but smiled saying "I understand". The crowd gasped as did Asta and Yuno. "Y-y/n" Yuno repeated, losing some of cool compsure. Asta was quiet. His green eyes gazing over y/n was he slowly walked up to Yami, his overwhelming mana obviously putting the boy on edge. "You made a big mistake kid, I'm gonna make you regret not picking those golden pansys" Yami spoke, placing a large hand ontop of y/n's head. "I can't wait" y/n spoke sarcastically, flinching at the touch. "This kid is great! Come here and meet Gordon and Finral already". Yami wrapped a muscled arm around y/n's neck dragging him somewhere that Yuno and Asta couldn't see. "Y/n is here... he's actually here" Asta repeated in a soft tone. "OH MY GOD!"
