The Chosen One | Black Clover

Grimoires

March...when Firefly dandelion fluff starts to dance through the air. Once a year, all around the Clover Kingdom, all of the 15-year-olds are gathered, and an awarding ceremony is held, where they receive their own grimoires, which enhance their magical powers.

Kyra POV

"Today's the day I get my grimoire and magical powers." Asta yelled out as he looked around, "All these are grimoires? Wow! I wonder which one is mines?"

I sweat dropped as Asta began to look all around while yelling about how cool this was. Yuno had moved over, pretending he didn't know Asta.

A let out a small laugh at the two, gaining their attention, "Yeah, Asta today is the day you just might get your magical powers." Even though I said that I wasn't sure it was true, I couldn't sense not even a drop of Mana from Asta.

Asta let out another yell as he ran over to me, grabbing my hands as he looked up at me. "Right? And once I do I'll join the Magic Knights, become The Wizard King, and them marry yo-" Asta was cut off by Yuno who shoved him to the side.

"False, I'll become The Wizard King, and like hell you'll marry Kyra." The Raven haired teen said as he stood beside me.

Hearing this Asta jumped up, "Yuno! I will defeat you and become Wizard King and Kyra's groom."

I felt myself grow annoyed at his words, "Bold of you to assume you'd be the groom, you midget." Even though my words were harsh I still had a smile on my face.

I heard Yuno snort while Asta just gasped, took taken back to actually say anything.

Taking his silence as a sign I've won, I looked around the room. The sound of two nobles talking caught my attention, "Pathetic, isn't it? They shouldn't have to give grimoires to drags like that."

I glanced at the out the corner of my eye as they continued, "Don't Tell me they're actually planning on taking the Magic Knights entrance exams, too?" I felt myself grow annoyed at their words.

I hated when people acted all high and mighty, exspecually when they can't back up their words. I know for a fact those two can't, their mana isn't even that strong.

I looked over at Yuno and Asta to see if they noticed, by the looks on their faces it seemed that they didn't, either that or they just didn't care. Since they didn't, I wouldn't either. So instead of listening to the rest of their conversation or the whispers from the others, I just completely ignored them until the tower master came out.

He was a old man with a long beard, but I could sense his strong mana, it wasn't all that strong but definitely stronger than the two nobles who were talking big.

"Welcome, young men and women. You all begin a new journey today. I wish you all faith, hope, and love. I am the master of this grimoire tower. We've never had a Wizard King from this area, nor anyone who's actually acheived greatness in the Magic Knights. I sincerely hope that one of you will become the Wizard King someday. No, really! Seriously!" The last part of his speech sounded desperate and I actually felt bad for the old man. He just wanted someone from Hage to become the Wizard King.

Clearing his throat the old man continued, "Now, it's time for the awarding...of the grimoires!" As he said this, tons of grimoires began to float down to their owners. Some people had small ones while some had huge grimoires, some were thick while others were light.

I looked around waiting for mines to come, it took a few seconds but it did appear. It was beautiful, the pattern was the same as the night sky hues of black, white, blue, and purple were wrapped around the thick book. On the middle of the grimoire was a clover, not any clover but a golden yellow five leaf clover. I stared at the grimoire in awe, and once it landed in my hands I opened it up only for bright light to nearly blind me.
