They both desire to become the next Wizard King . Asta and Yuno attend a magic ceremony to receive Grimoire's suited to their abilities . Each Grimoire has a picture of a 3 leaf clover on the cover symbolising Integrity, Hope and Love but Yuno receives an extremely rare 4 leaf Grimoire which symbolises Luck, angering the nobles who all treat commoners with contempt . Asta is humiliated when he does not receive a Grimoire . Yuno is attacked by a disgraced ex magic knight intent on stealing the 4 leaf Grimoire . Asta is badly beaten by the thief who mocks his lack of magic .

Yuno becomes too scared to fight back with his magic . Asta attacks the thief with his bare hands, receiving many injuries but ultimately getting the necklace back after the thief becomes bored . Yuno decides to become as brave as Asta and announces he will be Asta's rival and become the Wizard King before Asta does . In the present Asta uses his black Grimoire to summon a giant black sword with which he cuts through the thief's magic and defeats him with one overpowered slash .

One of the orphans, Nash, tells Asta that if he manages to become a Magic Knight it might mean everyone's dreams can come true, even the dreams of commoners and orphans . Asta and Yuno depart for the Capital City, a journey of several days on foot, continuing to train as they travel and both growing far stronger than they were, though Yuno still manages to outperform Asta using magic to accomplish tasks Asta must use strength and skill for .
