2.73% Reborn in black clover with Demon Slaying magic / Chapter 7: Magic Knight exam

Kapitel 7: Magic Knight exam

"Did this low born ant just address me?" The fat noble turned to look at a member of his entourage.

"I... Well..." If this had been a normal setting, the fat noble's henchmen would have already have immediately started attacking the black haired boy that had just insulted his lord. But this was the magic knight entrance exam. If he started a fight here who knows what consequences he would face.

Luckily for him he was saved by the bell as the announcer suddenly called for everyone's attention.

"Sorry for the wait everybody." Walking out from the background, 7 individuals walked out and drew the attention of everyone in the area.

"ITS THE MAGIC KNIGHT CAPTAINS!!"

"I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M SEEING THEM FROM SO CLOSE!!"

"I CAN DIE HAPPY!"

'Magic knight captains huh?'

Looking up at the 7 figures, Grim felt his blood start to boil as his urge to fight slowly increased.

'The strongest mages in the Clover Kingdom...'

Doing everything in his power to hold himself back, Grim looked up at the figures and burned their features into his memory.

While Grim was busy holding himself back from attacking the captains, one of the captains wearing a weird mask with several feathers sticking out from it took center stage.

"OH MY GOD ITS WILLIAM VENGEANCE!!"

"He was the one who took the head of the enemy general in the last battle!"

"Its said that he's the closest to becoming the next Wizard King!"

"I heard his squad members love him!"

"Ah, I'd love to be selected for the Golden Dawn!"

"Don't be stupid! Only elites and nobles are selected for that squad."

Hearing all the hype around him, Grim took a closer look at the masked man.

Opening his Grimoire, William executed a spell that caused branches to spawn and deliver wooden broomsticks to the examinees.

"Now then, lets us begin the Magic Knight Test."

Hearing him, the fat noble turned to face Grim before walking away.

"Hmph, I'll deal with you later peasant."

Normally Grim would hold his tongue and quietly bide his time, but after getting his grimoire and training for six months, he was feeling quite fearless.

"Wow, its surprising that you haven't choked on all the shit that comes out of your mouth." Grim's words caused the noble to stumble and almost fall flat on his face.

"Y-YOU!!"

"Oh? Ugly and illiterate, us commoners truly can't compare to such a pig faced individual such as yourself. I bow to you sir."

Feeling his face redden from all the insults, the noble started gathering his magic in his right hand and prepared to attack.

"You can't m'lord!" One of his lackey's stopped him before he could proceed. "If you attack now you'll be disqualified."

"He's right, we should on getting into the Golden Dawn and then we'll deal with this insolent brat!" Another one of his lackey's threw Grim a dirty look before trying to calm their boss down.

"Hmph! You're right, there'll be plenty of time to deal with this trash after we join the Golden Dawn." The fat noble said before leaving the area with his entourage in tow.

"Heh, nobles seem like fun." Grim laughed before also leaving.

---

Standing in line with a bunch of other test takers, they were told that the first test consisted of them being able to make the brooms that they were given fly.

"Anyone who can control their magic should be able to do this on feel alone." William explained. "This is the most basic form of movement magic there is. If you can't fly on a broom, you're not worth looking at."

'How simple.'

Closing his eyes, Grim poured a portion of his mana inside the broom and commanded it to float.

"Hey, isn't that the guy with the four leaf clover?" One of the examinees commented after seeing Yuno standing on his broom with ease.

"Hmm?" Everyone looked over at him. "To think a bumpkin like him could receive a four leaf clover..."

"Wait! Look at that guy!!" One of the examinees pointed at Grim who was doing a hand stand on his broom.

"What the hell!"

"Such control!"

While this was going on, the gray haired Asta struggled to even lift the broom off the ground and even drew the attention of captain Fuegoleon with his pitiful display.

"How strange... No matter how low his magic aptitude may be, he should at the very least cause some reaction from the broom."

---

After a series of tests, Captain Vengeance finally declared what the final test would be.

"Ahem. Before we start, I would like to thank you all for attending the Magic Knight entrance exam. For the future of the Clover Kingdom, I hope that you will go all out during this final test and prove to us that you are worthy of becoming a magic knight." He smiled and looked over the participants. "As for what your final test will be, it will be a test of all your magical and intellectual ability through the use of combat. You are allowed to pair up with anyone you want, just show us why you we should choose you to join our squad."

'Pair up?' Looking over at the fat noble, a wicked smile emerged on Grim's face.

"Oi piggy, if you keep standing around like that you'll never lose any weight."

"You again!!"

"Heyo." Grim grinned and walked over.

---

After applying his charm, the fat bodied noble couldn't take it anymore and challenged Grim to a duel.

"Damn peasant, I'll show you the difference between a noble and a dirty street rat."

"Looking forward to it." At this point Grim couldn't hide his smile any longer.

---

"Now then, you may begin." Captain Vengeance's voice rung out and begun the first match.

Looking at the battling area, Grim was quite surprised to see the Gray haired boy facing off against a shady looking blonde haired dude wearing a black hairband.

"Hahahaha, no holding back! Lets do this ASTA!!" The blonde haired man shouted before activating his magic.

[Bronze creation magic: Magnum Cannonball]

Patches of transparent blue light surrounded the blonde haired boy as it slowly came together to form a spherical armour that had several protruding cannons coming out of it.

---

Watching the fight from the upper levels with the rest of the captains, Finral couldn't help but compliment Sekke on his magic.

"That's pretty impressive for an exam candidate."

Unfortunately Yami didn't seem to be listening as he completely ignored what Finral said and compared Sekke's appearance to that of a bug from Mimoa Amazon.

---

"Now then Asta, come!" Sekke yelled with a smug look on his face.

"Yeah." The gray haired boy nodded before summoning out a dirty looking grimoire.

"Oh?" For some reason, Grim felt his eyes being drawn to black grimoire that the gray haired boy was using.

But what was weird was the fact that his own grimoire threatened to make an appearance as if sensing danger.

Blocking out the sound of everything around him, the gray haired boy who was referred to as Asta pushed hand towards the open pages of his grimoire, and in front of everyone he pulled out a giant black blade covered in dirt and scuff marks.

'What the-

Pushing off the ground with a tremendous amount of force that cracked the ground beneath his feet, Asta's figure turned into a blur as he appeared in front the armoured Sekke with his sword held high above his head.

"Eh?"

*BOOM!!*

Slicing through his barrier with little to no difficulty, the force of Asta's sword collided with Sekke with enough of an impact that the ground below them was turned into a crater.

'What force!' Grim's eyes widened as his grimoire became more and more restless.

"What the!"

"Impossible!"

Not expecting that outcome, looks of shock ran across the faces of the captains and the candidates. The only person who was unperturbed by such an outcome was the black haired Yuno who was smiling at Asta's performance.

Knocking Sekke unconscious, Asta rested the large sword on his shoulder and looked up at the magic knight captains.

"Listen up everyone! I'm not joining the magic knights just so I can have a cushy life and avoid working hard. I'm here to work my butt off and become the Wizard King!"

"Oho." Yami hummed.

'Wizard king eh? How interesting.' Grim smiled.

ASTA LA VISTA!!

Kapitel 8: Squad

After a couple more fights went down, it was eventually Yuno's turn to fight. To call it one sided would be an understatement as he completely dominated his opponent without taking a single step. Out of all the fights, only Yuno's and Asta's could rouse Grim's fighting intent as he was on the brink of drawing his sword out.

By the time most of the fights had finished, Grim and the fat noble were finally called up to the stage.

Walking to his position, Grim looked across at the noble and couldn't help but smile as the mana around him pulsed.

"Hmm?" All the captains raised an eyebrow and looked at him. Even Yuno couldn't help but take notice of him.

"What the hell are you smiling at you filthy peasant!" The fat noble yelled when he saw Grim's smiling face.

Instead of answering, he turned to look at the referee with a look of impatience.

"Start!"

"HAHAHA, now bow before me commoner!"

[Sand creation magic: Sand Fox]

Opening his grimoire, the fat noble raised his right hand in the air and yelled out the name of his spell.

Gathering above the noble, a large sea of sand appeared and clumped itself together until it turned into a large looking fox.

"Whoa!"

"Impressive."

"Incredible..."

The candidates couldn't help but sing their praises as they saw the spell slowly take shape.

'Fufufu, that's right peasants, be amazed. Hahahaha.'

"Is that it?" Grim's monotone voice suddenly rung out and silenced the crowd. "How disappointing... I thought you'd at least make me take you seriously but... this is honestly such a disappointment." He sighed and toned down his fighting intent.

"Eh?!" The crowd responded.

"And to think I was seriously fired up too. If I knew I was gonna be fighting a giant dog then I'd have chosen someone with more impressive magic... *Sigh* such a waste." He shook his head and looked towards the referee. "Can I change opponents? This one's too weak."

Stunned by Grim's sudden request, the referee stood dumbstruck not knowing how to proceed.

"Now that he mentions it..." Someone from the crowd started. "Isn't it just a giant pet?"

"Yeah... its actually not as cool as I thought it was when you think about it..."

"Doesn't this mean he's just a glorified pet owner?"

"Yeah."

"How embarrassing."

"How humiliating."

"How pitiful."

Hearing the words of the crowd, the fat noble's face turned bright red as his anger started to rise to unprecedented levels.

"SHUT UP YOU DAMN MONGRELS!!" He screamed at the top of his voice. "I'LL SHOW YOU! I'LL SHOW ALL OF YOU!!"

"Pffthahahahahaha. This guy's hilarious!" Yami burst out laughing from above.

"So I really can't switch? What if I pay you? Surely we can come to some deal right?"

"YOU!!" Hearing Grim talk to the referee without a care in the world, the fat noble finally lost it and poured all his mana into his sand fox.

"ATTACK!!"

*RAAWWRRR!!!!*

Bursting forward at an incredible speed, the large sand fox bared its teeth and charged towards the occupied Grim.

"Hmm?" Feeling a cluster of mana approaching him, Grim put his conversation on hold and turned his head to look at the approaching sand fox.

[Breath of flames]

Opening his grimoire up, a faint glow of orange light coated his body as a katana with a flame shaped hand guard materialized in his right hand.

"Mana skin?" Fuegoleon and the other captains raised their eyebrows when they saw the orange glow appear on his body.

Yami on the other hand was frowning hard as his focus was concentrated solely on the sword in Grim's hand.

[Ninth Form: Rengoku]

Covering the blade in a dense layer of flames, Grim lifted the sword high above his head and look at the red face noble in the eyes.

"Don't interrupt me again."

*BOOM!!*

Swinging the blade down with a practiced level of grace, a large beam of concentrated flames shot out and blasted forward. Travelling at a shocking speed, the beam encapsulated the sand fox's body before passing by the red faced noble and slamming into the bottom half of the platform the captains were sitting above and causing it to shake.

"What the hell!" The crowd stood stunned as they looked at the smoking impression left in the ground that was still radiating heat.

"I-I" Looking down at his burnt clothes, the fat noble wanted to scream at Grim but stopped after seeing the aftermath of the attack that passed by him.

*GULP*

"Such power..." Someone from the crowd muttered.

"Hmm..." Yuno frowned and looked at him.

"Amazing..." Asta's eyes shone as he looked at Grim.

Even the captains were taking more note of him as everyone in the area looked at him with various emotions in their eyes.

Unfortunately this was unseen by Grim due to him turning his attention back to the referee.

"See what I mean, too weak! Let me fight someone stronger."

*Silence*

---

After Grim's match finished, a couple more fights took place, but none of them were flashy compared to the previous matches.

"Ahem." Captain Vengeance suddenly called for everyone's attention. "I want to thank you all for your participation in this examination. We of the Clover Kingdom are so lucky to have so many passionate youngsters such as yourselves aspiring to be magic knights." He paused. "But this is where things get serious." His tone suddenly changed.

"When your number is called, please take a step forward. Whichever captain wants that participant, please raise your hand."

Hearing this, a wave of unease spread through the testers as it finally dawned on them just how important this moment would be for the rest of their lives.

"Golden Dawn, Golden Dawn, Golden Dawn." Grim heard a couple of people pray while crossing their fingers.

"Now then." Captain Vengeance continued. "Will participant number one please step forward."

---

"Number 32... Purple Orca's."

"Number 78... Crimson Lions."

"Number 116... Failed."

Number 141... Failed."

"Heh, I guess that's all I'm worth." Number 141 muttered as he walked passed Asta.

"Number 164 step forward."

Closing his eyes for a brief second, Yuno stepped forward and awaited the captain's decisions.

*GASP!!*

"What!"

"A-All the captains raised their hands!"

"Yuno..." Asta couldn't help but say his name.

Looking up at the captains, Yuno made his decision. "I choose the Golden Dawn."

"Lucky."

"Looks like the Golden Dawn will remain the strongest."

Various mummers erupted out of the crowd.

"Ah, looks like a really good one was taken." Finral commented.

"Number 165 step forward."

Making and audible gulp, Asta took a deep breath and took a step forward.

'Oho, this should be interesting.' Grim smiled and for some unexplainable reason, he found himself looking forward to what squad this gray haired boy would join. It was just a shame that no one raised their hand.

*Silence*

'Wait! Are you serious!? Didn't these guys see what he did to that smug bastard before?'

And as if to answer his question, Yami suddenly spoke up.

"Of course no one would pick you." He stood up.

"Yami..." Finral said his name.

"Even if you're really good in a fight, nobody wants a power that they can't identify."

Feeling like he was about to throw up, Asta stood on wobbly legs but kept staring at the black haired man standing above him.

"As the name implies, the main thing we look for in a magic knight is-

*Releases horrific amount of magic power*

"Magic Power."

Feeling Yami's magic power, everyone including Yuno and Grim were rooted to ground as large beads of sweat started to form on their faces.

'So this is a captain...' Sucking in a deep breath, Grim felt his heart beat accelerate as the blood in his body started flowing faster.

Yami continued speaking to Asta.

"Nobody here will want you, because you have no magical power."

Hearing enough, Grim forced himself to speak despite the magical pressure pushing him back.

"Wait a moment!"

"Huh?" Yami turned to him in surprise.

'Isn't this the kid with the katana?'

"You said that what you guys are looking forward in a magic knight is magic right? What about the knight part? What could be more knight worthy than a guy wielding a sword to defeat his enemies?"

Yami suddenly turned his attention to Grim and released even more magical power that almost forced him to his knees.

'What pressure... Now I really want to fight him.'

"Eh? Why are you grinning?" Yami tilted his head and asked.

"Hehehe, you're really strong aren't you." Grim laughed despite his struggle.

Grabbing onto his head, Yami picked him up until the two were eye level.

"I'm a magic knight captain, of course I'm strong dumb-ass." Yami answered in the most Yami fashion possible before looking at him.

"That sword of yours... where did you get it?"

"It comes with my magic." Grim struggled to say.

"Your magic eh? What is it? Some fire type magic or something?"

"Huh?" Grim made a dumbfounded expression. "What gave you that impression?"

"....The fire...."

"Ah, no wonder." Grim nodded, which was really hard considering that his head was being held by Yami.

"...."

"...."

"...."

"...."

"Are you playing with me brat!!" Yami suddenly squeezed tighter after Grim lapsed into a state of silence.

"Ow, ow, ow, the fucks your problem!?"

"I asked you what your damn magic was!" Yami's gripped tightened.

"Ow, ow, ow, okay I'll tell you! Just let me go."

Finally hearing something he liked, Yami released Grim.

"Damn, you really don't hold back!" Grim rubbed his head.

Seeing that Grim still wasn't answering, Yami cracked his knuckles.

"You were saying?"

"Demon slaying!" Grim quickly answered. "Demon Slaying magic!"
