3: magic knight exam

The time came for the Magic Knights entry exam. Yuno and Asta both headed to the Capital of Clover with the hopes of being accepted into one of the magic squads. Y/n at first didn't want to go with fears of leaving her family behind in Hage. It took lots of convincing from Sister Lily to go.

"Out of everyone, Asta would probably need the most watching," Sister had said. "Plus, didn't you want to see the world with Yuno?"

So, several months later, after a long journey from Hage, the trio (plus Hoshi) made it to the Capital.

Amazement and wonder hit Y/n the moment they entered. It was so lively! There were so many shops and food stalls that people ran with various types of magic. It was bustling with consumers. People of different classes, mostly upper, mingled among themselves. The three from Hage stuck out like sore thumbs with their lack of fancier clothing.

"WOW! There's so many magical items! But they're so expensive!" Asta cried.

"Would you like a snake on a stick?" An old woman asked. The food honestly looked poisoned. It emitted a weird aura, but the dumbass still ate it.

"He's gonna die," Hoshi commented.

"Nah, Asta's too stupid for death," Y/n retorted.

The two passed a jewelry stand on the way to the castle. Y/n paused to look at a beautiful necklace that had caught her eye. It was simple. It had a gold chain with a crescent moon pendant.

"You see something you like, young lady?" The owner asked.

"This necklace right here..." Y/n frowned seeing the price. "But it's kinda pricey..."

"How about you trade me it for that hair comb of yours?" He suggested. Y/n's hands flew to her hair where the rose gold hair comb was clipped.

It was the only nice thing she owned. Father said he found it at the bottom of the basket she and Yuno arrived at the church in. Whomever her biological mother was, it most likely belonged to her. Y/n refused to sell it and always wore it.

"N-no thanks," Y/n politely declined. "It's too important to me.

"You sure?" The owner pressed. "This necklace here is made out of the finest gold. It's worth more than that dull piece you've got."

"I'll pass."

With that, Y/n walked off, grabbing Hoshi by his wing, which made him drop the ring he was looking at. She could hear the owner grumble something along the lines of "stupid bitch from the boonies."

Tears welled up in her eyes for some reason. Honestly, Y/n didn't know why she was crying. Most of the aristocrats had a hair up their ass anyway. She shouldn't be shocked.

"Y/n," Yuno called. Said girl looked up at her dark haired friend, not realizing where she was wandering. "Don't walk off. This place is too crowded."

"Oh! Sorry..." Y/n murmured while wiping any tears threatening to fall. Yuno noticed and frowned.
