BUTTERFLY BEAUTY (Various! Black Clover x Kocho!Reader)

The Chapter about a Movie about a Man's Sword (Special)

before we get started, pls keep this in mind: the timeline for this movie doesn't make sense to me (i know it's just between the elf reincarnation arc and the heart kingdom arc, but i am simply not going to be talking about any of that right now lmao) so the timeline for this fic will also make no sense and that's just something we, as a society, will have to endure

(pls this was so self-indulgent, you will see why 😭)

obligatory warning: some ooc stuff ahead, but it's for plot purposes, i promise 🙏

"It's my pleasure to welcome you all to The Triumph! As you know, it is a grand festival of magic battles that takes place every ten years. I hope you're prepared for a show because this tournament will decide the strongest Magic Knight out of the many competitors here today." As Mimosa continued explaining what the Triumph was and thanking the citizens for watching or attending, your attention was elsewhere. A Peleides blue morpho? What a good day this is! The beautiful blue insect had landed on your hand and you took particular care in tending to make sure it was enjoying its time near you. You gave it a soft smile and it nuzzled against your finger, wanting you to pet it. Your heart nearly exploded at how affectionate this creature was being. Gladly, little one! Oh, to be petted by one (1) Doctor Kocho.

Meanwhile, from his seat, Klaus caught his eyes wandering over to you. His face heated up at your surprisingly soft expression. From how anti-doing-this-event you were earlier, he was not expecting such a look to grace your features. He was glad to see that that wasn't the case, however! (Not that he'd really admit such a thing, though.) A massive win for your simps everywhere!

"Klaus, (Name)... I was wondering if you knew why we were chosen as masters of ceremony?" Mimosa suddenly asked, which captured your attention again.

"Because we're members of the strongest Magic Knight Squad, naturally!" Well, that might have been true for Mimosa and Klaus, but as for you, as usual, things were a tad different...

*flashback*

There you were, tending to things around the Golden Dawn base. You hadn't gone out on a mission in lieu of fixing as many things as you could before dealing with new problems. Finding out you were a hybrid was really taking it out of you, it seemed, and you truly didn't want to interact with your captain any more than absolutely necessary right now.

"First Lieutenant Kocho!" You sighed at one of your inferior officers calling out your name and title. It seems I am needed yet again. Oh, if only more people could be competent in this squad!

"Yes~?" You asked, not taking your eyes off of the tea packets you were organizing in alphabetical order. Ah, yes, a very important task indeed.

"The captain of the Crimson Lion Kings is here to see you!" You blinked at that. Why is Fuegoleon here?

"Did he say it's urgent?"

"He said that he would like to speak with you as soon as possible, Ma'am." The Magic Knight squeaked out. You hummed.

"Did he say why he wanted to see me?"

"W-Well, no, Ma'am, but he-"

"It's a bit of a selfish request, I must admit." You heard his deep voice chuckle out before you actually saw him. Upon hearing the sound, you turned to the doorway to see the man, the myth, the legend himself standing there, in all his unsleepy glory. What you found most interesting, however, was his-

"*Gasp* Oh, my goodness! Your arm!" You immediately ran up to his arm which was literally made of fire. You were in complete awe of it! He's using his Magic to make this?! How incredible! Your reaction caused a smile to appear on his visage. You were just as lively as his sister said you were.
