Black Clover: Starting from the Sign-in

In March, as fireflies and dandelions danced through the sky.

In the Clover Kingdom, those who were 15 years old and possessed magical abilities gathered outside the Magic Tower.

During this annual awarding ceremony, the fortunate ones would receive a grimoire that could enhance their magical powers.

"It's been a year, and I've finally arrived at this place!"

A ragged boy removed the cloth covering his face, revealing a distinctly handsome visage.

Looking at the towering Magic Tower, which stood several meters high, he displayed a hint of excitement.

"Activate the system immediately!"

"Ding! The system is activating. Please wait, host."

"Ding! Congratulations, host, on successfully activating the system. Please hurry to the Magic Tower to check in before the grimoire awarding moment."

"Ding! The system has detected that the host is currently 10,000 meters away from the Magic Tower and cannot check in yet. The task has been activated for the host. Please proceed quickly. After successful check-in, rewards will be granted by the system."

A year ago, Heiyu accidentally crossed over to the Clover Kingdom, becoming a vagrant without any identification or magical powers.

In a kingdom that values social class, such a status is worse than death.

If it weren't for his strong mental resilience and the emergence of a divine check-in system that brought him a glimmer of hope, Heiyu probably wouldn't have spent a year walking to this place.

Now, looking at the massive Magic Tower, Heiyu finally awaited this moment.

Thinking of this, Heiyu did not hesitate and quickly walked towards the Magic Tower.

Since today was the annual grimoire awarding moment, it was an important day that could change anyone's fate.

Thus, by the time Heiyu arrived at the entrance, it was already packed with people inside.

However, his appearance clearly attracted many disdainful glances.

His tattered clothes were enough to indicate that his status was even lower than that of the commoners.

"Hey, you vagrant, get the hell out of here!"

"Guard, what are you looking at? Letting a bunch of commoners mingle with us nobles is beneath our dignity. Can vagrants really step into such a sacred place now?" A chubby boy, dressed in luxurious clothes and resembling a pig, was the first to shout.

As soon as these words were spoken, they drew everyone's attention.

Not only the nobles, but even the commoners cast disdainful looks.

After all, in any social group, there are always those who look down on others.

Especially the pig-like noble, who clearly had a significant status, quickly attracted the attention of several other nobles.

The magical guards stationed around exchanged hesitant glances but still approached Heiyu.

They possessed grimoires but were merely ordinary people who held an inexplicable reverence for the nobles.

Watching the crowd closing in, Heiyu frowned; having come this far to the Magic Tower, he didn't want his efforts to go to waste.

"Silence! Everyone, be quiet! Today is a good day for the awarding of grimoires. Anyone who arrives here is fortunate and may become a magician. I am the tower master of this Magic Tower, and I sincerely wish for you all to become great magicians."

An elderly voice suddenly rang out.

The crowd that had gathered around Heiyu was instantly drawn away.

The previously provoking pig-like boy, upon seeing the tower master appear, merely made a throat-slitting gesture towards Heiyu before averting his gaze.

For anyone, receiving a grimoire is the top priority.

It's the most urgent wish.

"Ding! Congratulations, host, on successfully arriving at the check-in location. Check-in is now officially starting."

"The check-in duration is one minute. I hope the host does not exit midway; otherwise, it will be considered a failure."

The ethereal voice of the system echoed in Heiyu's mind, bringing a hint of joy to his face.

Meanwhile, the tower master, after throwing another glance at Heiyu, whose face resembled withered tree bark, showed a flicker of excitement. He raised his tightly gripped staff high and called out.

"Grant the grimoires!"

The elderly voice sent a jolt through everyone's nerves.

The large venue fell into an inexplicable silence.

Then, the shelves lining the walls, filled with grimoires, seemed to respond to an invisible pull.

They lit up with various magical glows.

In the next moment, they transformed into shooting stars, diving straight into the crowd below.

"I—I got a grimoire!"

"My grimoire is so big!"

"My grimoire looks thicker; I'm sure I'll become a member of the magical knights in the future!"

Exclamations of surprise rang out one after another.
