It was a foggy cold silent night in the realm of Hage until the silence was broken by the loud crying of 2 babies left at the church surprisingly the third one wasn't crying at all they seemed to be smiling
Hearing this the priest of the church walked out and saw 3 babies
More huh? *Sigh*-Orsi
The priest picked up the babies and brought them inside the church setting them down on a bed and lighting a fire to warm them up
There, there-Orsi
There you are-Orsi
Those two finally calmed down *sigh*-Orsi
Orsi said while stretching
He looked at the three baby boys two of them were sleeping while the other one was staring at Orsi with a smile
Orsi bent down to get a better look at them
Are they brothers... or perha[s twins?-Orsi
Hmm no they're not-Orsi
Orsi then looked at the black-haired child
This one is rather calm, but this one...-Orsi
Orsi said turning to the gray-haired baby
Seems like he has a lot of spunk...-Orsi
He then turns to the H/C baby
This one seems to be...happy? It was the only one not crying when it was outside-Orsi
Orsi then put his finger on the baby and it gently grabbed his finger
Gah!-Baby
Hmph cute...-Orsi
Orsi pulled down the babies blanket and saw a name sworn into its shirt
Y/N what a nice name-Orsi
But back to the topic, they don't look anything alike...-Orsi
Orsi then pulled down the blanket of the black-haired baby and on its shirt it said Yuno
Hm? Yuno...-Orsi
Orsi then saw a necklace and the side of Yuno's head it had a blue orb with a white cross and four white stars on the sides
Hmm, let's see. And the spunky one over here is-Orsi
Orsi was cut off by the gray-haired baby kicking him in the face and knocking him back
Hey! You're a bit too spunky...-Orsi
Orsi said holding his bleeding nose
Waahahaha!-Grey-haired baby
Orsi got up off of the ground and walked back over to the baby
He was angry with the child at first but he then started to smile he spotted a name on the child's shirt
"Asta," eh?-Orsi
Orsi then put his hand on his hips
Right! You three don't need to worry about a thing anymore!-Orsi
Starting today, this is your new home Asta, Yuno, Y/N...-Orsi
15 Years Later
Sister Lily!-Asta
I'll become the Wizard King someday and make you happy!-Asta
Asta yelled while Sister Lily stared at him with a smile
So please marry me!-Asta
Asta said holding up a flower to Sister Lily
I'm sorry, Asta but I'm everyone's sister so I can't marry you-Sister Lily
Waaaaaaah!!!-Asta
Asta yelled leaning back but he then shot up off of the ground at Sister Lily
Not yet!-Asta
EH!?-Sister Lily
Um... I'm sorry hehe-Sister Lily
sister Lily laughed nervously
Grrrrr YAAAA I'm not giving up yet!-Asta
Asta said bowing to her
Er, um... But...-Sister Lily
I'm not giving up!-Asta
Asta said banging his head on the ground
I'm really sorry!-Sister Lily
She said bowing
Sister Lily then took out her grimoire and opened it
One more time, Sister Lily!-Asta
Stop pestering me!-Sister Lily
Water Creation Magic: Holy Fist of Love!-Sister Lily
Sister lily said creating a fist of water and slamming it on top of Asta creating a crater in the ground
AHHHH!!!-Asta
Ah! I-I'm sorry Asta-Sister Lily
She said running over to him still face first on the ground
I used magic from my grimoire without thinking...-Sister lily
*Clap* *Clap* *Clap* *Clap*
Well done sister- Rekka
No mercy whatsoever-Nash
Sister Lily put her hand on her cheek
I-I... It just happened...-Sister Lily
I'm not done yet!-Asta
Asta yelled jumping into the air just then Yuno used his magic to send a gush of air pushed him out of the way f Sister Lily
How many times does she have to dump you-Nash
Oh no, you got it all wrong Nash...-???
Everyone looked behind them to see Y/N walking over to them he had his hood over his head and an ax in his hand
To dump someone you have to actually be in a relationship with them Asta here has never gotten with Sister Lily-Y/N
Y/N said with a smile and his hand on his hip
Asta then got up and ran over to everyone
Why are you getting in the way Yuno!?-Asta
*Sigh* Why?-Yuno
Yuno said putting his fingers on his chin
Because you're loud, short, obnoxious, and immature-Yuno
Asta was speechless as Yuno threw insults at him
Basically, you're not appealing to women in any way-Yuno
Yuno said walking away from him
Waaahh!!!-Asta
Grr Hey! Is that what you say to someone you've grown up with for the past fifteen years, you handsome jerk!?-Asta
Let me give you a hand-Yuno
Thanks!-Sister Lily
Don't ignore me, damn it!-Asta
Asta, Sister Lily is a woman of the cloth, so she can't get married-Yuno
And you're fifteen Asta you can get married at that age-Y/N
Y/N said patting Asta's head
Shut up! Yuno, you jerks... I oughta... I challenge you to fight, Yuno!-Asta
Oh no, this again...-Y/N
Y/N said rubbing his face
And I decline-Yuno
Why the hell not?!-Asta
Because it's a waste of time-Yuno
What'd you say?!-Asta
Give it a rest Ast. There's no way you can beat Yuno-Nash
Take this... My ultimate...-Asta
Asta then reeled back his arm
Hold up Asta
Attack!-Asta
(Nothing happened)
I mean you can't even use magic-Nash
Nothing came out!-Asta
Asta then fell to the ground
Nothing came out!-Asta
Gahh!! I'm not done yet!-Asta
Hahaha! You're funny, Asta!-Aruru
You have zero sense.-Nash
It's hard to believe someone your age can't use magic yet.-Nash
What the hell is your problem?! How dare you speak to your elders that way!-Asta
Shut up.-Nash
Magic is everything in this world. It's only natural to be able to use magic.-Nash
You're the only one I've ever seen who can't use it, Asta.-Nash
Nash said holding up his finger with a flame on top of it
Ngh... G-Guess I don't have a choice.-Asta
I'll have to show you what I'm really made of...-Asta
Hm?-Nash
What you're really made of?-Recca
Asta then gets on the ground and does sit-ups extremely quickly.
Urahhh!!-Asta
How do you like that?! I know you can't do sit-ups this fast!-Asta
What's your point, you idiot?-Nash
You're funny, Asta! Hahaha!-Aruru
Well at least you'll have a strong core...-Y/N
Yuno uses magic to dry out the clothes for Lily it looked light a green ball of wind moving causing leaves to fly everywhere
The kids then run over to Yuno and watch him in amazement
Yuno's so cool!-Aruru
That's Yuno for you.-Nash
He's such a great help.-Sister Lily
Grrr...!-Asta
Asta then runs behind the church with Y/N following him
Ngh... Then leave... the wood-chopping... to me!-Asta
But that's my job-Y/N
Asta prepares to chop a piece of wood, but Yuno uses magic to split the wood first.
Urk...-Asta
Oh nevermind then!-Y/N
Y/N said with a smile
Sheesh... I still can't believe you two are the same age.-Nash
Never petty Yuno! Hahaha
Ngh...!-Asta
Asta marches toward Yuno, but Orsi flings the door to the church open, smacking Asta down
Gah!-Asta
Hm! Yuno is the hope of this church!-Orsi
Orsi said yelling with tears in his eyes
I won't be surprised if you end up joining the Magic Knights who serve the Wizard King, Yuno!-Nash
Lily approaches Asta, who sits dejected by himself. while Y/N was consoling him
The awarding ceremony is coming up, Asta.-Sister Lily
Once you receive your grimoire, it should trigger something within you, and you should be able to use magic, too.-Sister Lily
Yeah, I bet you'll get your grimoire today and your magic will be awesome!-Y/N
Sister, Y/N...!-Asta
Asta said with tears pouring out of his eyes
At least, I think so.-Sister Lily
I'll get my grimoire soon... Finally... Finally!-Asta
Asta said standing up and looking at the demon skull
I'll get a grimoire that's more amazing than anyone else's, get into the Magic Knights, follow in your footsteps, and become the Wizard King!-Asta
Ahh...-Sister Lily
That's the spirit Asta!-Y/N
There he goes again.-Nash
Nash said walking towards them
And I'll fix up this shabby, ugly church!-Asta
Ngh... Well, I'm sorry it's so shabby and ugly!-Orsi
Orsi turned and yelled at Asta
Right, Yuno?-Asta
Right?-Asta
Asta said putting out his fist towards Yuno but he say nothing and walks away
Ngh... Just you wait...-Asta
Asta said dropping his fist and taking off running
I'll follow him-Y/N
Y/N said dropping his ax and running after Asta
Ah...!-Sister Lily
Just you wait, damn it!-Asta
Asta, wait!-Sister Lily
Hmm... Is he really older than me?-Nash
Y/N POV
A few Hours Later
994,,, 995, 996, 1,000!-Asta, Y/N
Y/N and Asta were in the skull cave working out together they were doing one-armed, armstand push-ups
And now for this moguro leaf juice, which is supposed to be good for increasing magical powers!-Asta
Asta said chugging down the juice while Y/N drank some from his own bottle
Once they were dont Asta looked at Y/N with a smile
Thanks for always doing these workouts with me Y/N but you know you don't have to-Asta
Eh, no worries Asta, what are brothers for? Plus this helps me keep in shape but Asta I do need to talk to you...-Y/N
Hm? What is it Y/N?-Asta
Well we both know that as the bigger brother I have to look out for you guys and protect you and all right?-Y/N
Yup! You've always been there me me and Yuno no matter what!-Asta
Yeah well, that's what I wanted to talk to you about... Asta this world we live in is very dangerous and we both know that and I'm not always going to be here with you through life-Y/N
Y/N dont say stuff like that-Asta
No, I need to say this Asta I've been with you almost all your life your 15 now your growing up your becoming a man and with that kind of change you know I won't be here to look after you-Y/N
Asta this is your life the living you need to take control of your own life your own destiny-Y/N
Asta has a sad look on his face
Your my brother my family and you will always have my full support-Y/N
I then put my hand on his shoulder
You're going to become the Wizard King you hear me no matter what anyone says magic or no magic this is your life your future that you're going to take a hold of and you don't need someone like me back tailing you all along the way-Y/N
People may talk about your fate of being nothing because of you not having any magic but I say to hell with fate! You make your own destiny trusting in nothing but fate that leads you you being nothing is the life of a loser and my brother is no loser isn't that right Asta?-Y/N
I smiled at him and he smiled back
I put we gave each other a fist bump
Alright then Wizard King let's get back to work!-Y/N
Y/N said standing up and crossing his arms
I'm going to become the Wizard King. That's the one thing I'll never give up on!-Asta(Thoughts)
But before that, I need to build myself up! Urahhh!-Asta
Asta yelled while doing sit-ups
Yeah let's do this!-Y/N
Y/N said joining Asta doing his pushups
The Next Day
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.-Narrator
Almost everyone was at Grimoire Tower. Asta, Y/N and other 15-year-olds, and the rest of the village are gathered there
Wow! A-Are all of these grimoires?-Asta
Looks like it's pretty cool huh?-Y/N
So cool! Which one is mine?-Asta
Once I get my grimoire, I'm sure I'll be able to use magic too!-Asta(Thoughts)
I'll catch up to Yuno in no time!-Asta(Thoughts)
Hmph. I guess today is the day I become a full-fledged mage.-Noble 1
Hey, look over there.-Noble 2
Hm?-Noble 1
Pathetic, isn't it? They shouldn't have to give grimoires to dregs like that.-Noble 2
You said it.-Noble 1
Don't tell me they're actually planning on taking the Magic Knights' entrance exams, too.-Noble 2
Only nobles born with immense magical power or ties to the royal family ever get in.-Noble 1
Besides, I heard that shrimp can't even use magic!-Noble 2
Wow... Then we need to take good care of him.-Noble 1
He's like a national treasure since he's probably the only one in this whole kingdom who can't use magic-Noble 2
Magic. Hahaha!-Noble 1
I was able to hear what those jerks were saying but sadly I couldn't do anything about it
Ugh stuck up assholes...-Y/N
Welcome, young men and women.-Drouot
You all begin a new journey today. I wish you all faith, hope, and love.-Drouot
The man said flying down on a green glowing carpet
I am the master of this grimoire tower.-Drouot
Umm, we've never had a Wizard King from this area, nor anyone who's actually achieved greatness in the Magic Knights.-Drouot
I sincerely hope that one of you will become the Wizard King someday.-Drouot
No, really, seriously!-Drouot
He shouted out of nowhere sounding unhinged
...Whoa-Y/N
Ahem. Now it's time for the awarding of the grimoires!-Drouot
The grimoires then start to glow and fly to their respective owners.
Whoa!-Crowd
Is this my grimoire?-Random lady
Check it out! Mine's bigger!-Randoms man
Mine's thicker though!-Random man 2
All right! Now I can leave this town and go to the city!-Random man 3
Hmph! We'll be taking the Magic Knights' entrance exams in six months.-Noble 1
We'll be sure to get in.-Noble 2
Good, good. I look forward to it-Drouot
Mm... Um...-Asta
Huh?-Crowd
My grimoire not coming...-Asta
Asta said with his arms spread out looking up at Y/N next to him who also didn't have his grimoire
Hm, that's odd...-Y/N
Er... Try again next year.-Drouot
What?!-Asta
Pft...-Crowd Member 1
Hahahaha!-Crowd Member 2
What the heck?!-Crowd member 3
That's actually amazing!-Crowd member 4
That's way too funny!-Crowd Member 5
Seriously?-Nash
Heh! Don't laugh at him! Shut up!-Y/N
I yelled trying to defend my brother but my voice was being drowned out by the crowd member's laughter
I can't believe it.-Recca
Ha... If we competed to see who was most pathetic, we'd be no match for that guy.-Noble 1
Just then Yuno's grimoire starts to glow golden
Huh?-Asta
Hmm... A four-leaf clover...-Drouot
Woah!-Crowd
A four-leaf? You mean the legendary...-Noble 1
H-Hey... The one that the first Wizard King received?-Orsi
The grimoire said to be filled with immense power and good luck?-Sister Lily
Him? That peasant?!-Noble 1
Wow!-Crowd Member 6
Yuno then turns to everyone
I'm going to become the Wizard King!-Yuno
What!-Crowd
Huh!?-Y/N
Ah...-Asta
Asta then falls to his knees looking at the ground
The crowd then bursts into celebration praising Yuno while Y/N was consoling Asta
H-Hey it's ok Asta I didn't get mine either we just need to... work harder! Yeah that's it and drink my magic-enhancing juice!-Y/N
Asta then slowly gets up off fo the floor
Yuno...-Asta
Yuno then looks at Asta
Just you wait I'll catch up to you in no time-Asta
Because-Asta
Asta then turns around to face Yuno
I am your rival!-Asta
Asta said pointing at himself
It was silent for a second before the crowd erupted in laughter again
Did he just say "rival"?-Crowd Member 7
He didn't even get a grimoire. What is he thinking?-Crowd Member 8
Yuno walks past Asta
Not possible.-Yuno
Ahh...-Asta
Ah...-Sister Lily
All right, kids! We're heading home to prepare for the feast!-Orsi
You can each have three potatoes today!-Orsi
Yaay!-Aruru
I sure would like to eat something else once in a while.-Recca
The townsfolk begin vacating the grimoire tower.
Near Asta's training cave. Asta hangs from a tree branch Y/N was sitting under the tree
Hey you doing alright up there, Asta?-Y/N
...I thought that once I got my grimoire, I'd be able to use magic, but... I never thought I wouldn't even get one...-Asta
...I'm sorry Asta I got your hopes up without even knowing the outcome...-Y/N
Y/N said looking down
Ngh...-Asta
Asta then gets up on the tree branch
But... like hell I'm gonna give up!-Asta
I was shocked suddenly hearing Asta should that
Hahaha! Don't you dare underestimate me, fate! I'll show you!-Asta
Even if it takes one, two, ten, or a thousand years, I'll keep working hard until I get my grimoire! I'll become the Wizard King and prove to everyone that anyone can be awesome, even if they're poor or just some orphan! You jerk!-Asta
Just you wait, Yuno!-Asta
...Hmph, now that's the Asta I know!-Y/N
I and Asta were jumping through the trees until we both heard screaming from the distance
AHHHHHHHHH!!!!-???
Huh? Y/N did you hear that?-Asta
Yeah, maybe we should check it out-Y/N
Let's go then!-Asta
I and Asta then run towards the city where we heard the noise we keep running until we hear a voice talking
Hey, wait we don't know what we're getting into let's just wait until the time is right-Y/N
Asta nods and listens to the conversation
Fufufu...-Revshi
Revchi, was it? It's pointless for you to steal that.-Yuni
The only one --Yuno
Yuno was cut off by Revchi
The only one who can use a grimoire is the one it chose.-Revchi
However, underground collectors are buying grimoires with four-leaf clovers for insane prices.-Revchi
A four-leaf clover may have chosen you, but you only just received it. You're still just a little chick.-Revchi
How unfortunate for you that I happened to be here.-Revchi
Your legend is going to end before it even begins.
Revchi looks at Yuno's notices Yuno's pendant
Hey, that pendant looks like it's worth something, too. I guess I'll be taking that...-Revchi
Alright the time is right let's go!-Y/N
Asta then jumps out from the trees
Hold it!-Asta
Oh?-Revchi
Asta then smacks into a wall.
Urk!-Asta
You gotta be kidding me...-Y/N
I said slapping my forehead
I also jump out of the trees and land next to Ast helping him up
Thank you Y/N ahem-Asta
What do you think you're doing?!-Asta
Yeah let go of our brother or else!-Y/N
We've come to save, eh?-Asta
Asta and Y/N were pointing at the blonde-haired noble who then looked at the man with the grimoire open
Asta and Y/N turned to him
Who the hell are you!?-Asta and Y/N
That's Yuno's grimoire!-Asta
Give it back or taste pain punk!-Y/N
Aren't you those pathetic little brats who weren't even given a grimoire?-Revchi
Oh, so you remember us! Yeah, I'm that pathetic little brat!-Asta
Hey, I'm not pathetic you are!-Y/N
A grimoire is precious to the person who received it! Give it back to Yuno, you jerk!-Asta
Kufufufu... The outside world is a place where crooked deeds like this can be overlooked. But you'll be dead before you find that out for yourself.-Revchi
Revchi opens his grimoire and starts to use a spell.
Ah...! Asta, Y/N run!-Yuno
Ngh...!-Asta
Fufufufu...-Revchi
Asta and Y/N got into a fighting stance
We're not going to run away from a disgraced loser like him!-Asta
Yeah we got this!-Y/N
Asta and Y/N charge toward Revchi. Revchi sends chains flying toward Asta Asta dodges them and jumps behind Revchi
Ngh... Urahhh!!-Asta
Asta moves to punch Revchi, but the chains bind him back
Y/N then runs up behind him and jumps up to punch him but a chain wrapped around him and slams him into the wall
Nevermind we don't got this...-Y/N
Ngh... Ngh... I'm not done yet!-Asta
Asta said taking a step forward while I was trying to fight the chains dragging me to the wall
No... You're finished-Revchi
He said with a wicked smile
Just then a chain ripped through Asta's body
Dance of the Pitless Viper!-Revchi
ASTA!-Y/N
Just then a chain rips through my body then another threw Asta's then another through mine
A-Asta...-Y/N
N-No I c-can't let this happen I have to...I have to protect them...-Y/N
Asta was then slammed into the wall and Revichi was walking towards him
Just then everything started to go black
S-Shit I'm blacking out no... I can't...I can't let this...happen....-Y/N
I then fell to the ground in a puddle of my own blood
No...not...like...this...-Y/N
My eyes then start to close as my body started to feel cold and empty until everything went black
Get up-???
H-Huh?-Y/N
I slowly open my eyes as I heard a deep but powerful voice
Get up now-???
W-Who's there?-Y/N
This is not how you die, get up. GET UP!-???
Just then I felt a warm feeling engulfed my body the pain started to fade away and I could stand again
I kneel on one knee and looked to my right to see a book floating with a white aura around it
(Imagine this but the book color is White with gold lined on the sides a 6 leafed clover with wings on the side of two eye wheels surrounding the clover in the middle)
Is that...?-Y/N
The book then opened and what looked like a giant sword emerged from it
Whoa...-Y/N
I pick up the sword and it was surprisingly light I could wield it with one hand
Awesome! Now...-Y/N
Were that Chain asshole...-Y/N
Hey!-Yuno
Huh?-Y/N
I said looking at him
Hey! Who are you calling a loser? Asta, indeed, you won't be able to become the Wizard King, no matter what.-Yuno
Yuno...-Y/N
You hear that? Even your little friend is telling you it's impossible.-Revchi
Revchi said with a mocking smile
That's because I'm going to become the Wizard King!-Yuno
What?-Revchi
He's no loser.-Yuno
He's... Asta is my rival!-Yuno
!-Asta
Huh? Him? Your rival? This brat who has no magical power whatsoever?-Revchi
Asta then grabs Revchi's leg surprising Revchi
Hm?
Not... Not yet.
Ah...!
Revchi begins backing away from Asta but his back then hit Y/N who was standing right in back of him with his sword on his shoulder
How dare you hurt my brothers you bastard...-Y/N
I said glaring at Revchi
Asta
Sorry, you had to see me looking that pathetic, Yuno, Y/N.
Just a sec...I and Y/N are gonna kick this guy's butt!
Just then a five-leafed clover grimoire appears at Asta's side
A... grimoire?-Asta
I knew it. There's no way that Asta wouldn't have been chosen!-Yuno(Thoughts)
Looks like you got one too huh Asta?-Y/N
As smiles at Y/N
The grimoire then opens, and a sword appears from inside
Cool you have a sword too, sweet!-Y/N
But you didn't have any magic within you too!-Revchi
What in the world are those grimoires?!-Revchi
The three leaves of the clover represent faith, hope, and love.-Narrator
Ah... Ahh... Ahh...-Revchi
Within a fourth leaf dwells good luck.-Narrator
Within a fifth leaf... resides a demon.-Narrator
And within a six-leaf resides and Angel-Narrator
