Chapter 2: The Fallen
Asta was seen sitting under the skeleton with a poker face. It was night time and he was fully awake.
"So this is actually the reality, is it now? *sigh*... I shall never abandon my name. I am still Surya RajPurohit. I don't care what others would think.
Now that I am here, everything will change."
Declared Surya without any shadow of doubt and as he did so, he felt a sudden tug from his abdomen and suddenly a white-colored grimoire phased out of his being.
The white grimoire also had a five-leaf clover on its cover and as Surya opened it with uncertainty, he was greeted with streams and streams of information about various spells which told him that he can use them once he finally ascends and become "The Fallen".
"What does this mean? These speels are crazy! The Fallen? Does it mean the Fallen angels which followed Lucifer out of Heaven? But then again. Lucifer himself was called 'The Fallen One'. Or is it some different kind of fallen? And how do I become one? In a world where stupid people have power over space and time, I need to scrap anything valuable."
Surya kept thinking about it when suddenly a figure approached him with worry on his face.
"Asta, I've been looking all over for you! What were you doing? Just come with me, Sister Lily has brought cake so we could celebrate a little. We have to wake up early tomorrow, so we can go collect our grimoire!"
Said Yuno as he approached his best friend's figure.
Although what he failed to notice was the fact that the whole bearing of Asta was changed. The way he stood up, the way he walked, the way he looked and even the way he breathed had a different feel to it. It was as if there was some Royalty standing in place of Asta.
Surya, however, listening to Yuno snapped out of whatever he was planning and simply turned around and left towards the direction of the Church.
Yuno was a little weirded out by the fact that the always loud and cheerful Asta suddenly became quiet and ignored him, but he reasoned that Asta must be very anxious about not getting any grimoire tomorrow as he didn't even have an ounce of magic in him.
Surya quickly arrived at the Church and ate a little after which he quickly went to his common room and slept on his mattress.
"What..happend to him, Yuno?"
Asked Sister Lily with worry to which Yuno simply responded with
"He must be nervous about tomorrow."
Sister Lily became a little sad hearing this as even she was worried about Asta for tomorrow. She didn't even wanted him to go so she could shield him from the depression which might engulf his little bright star, but she soon cheered up as she remembered how stubborn Asta was.
Nothing can stop him from thinking that he won't be able to become Magic Emperor without magic..Even if he doesn't get any grimoire, he would still die of old age, saying that he will become a Magic Emperor and marry Sister Lily. He was just that Delusional.

Surya, who was lying down with his eyes closed was still thinking about what he should do? Should he go tomorrow for the grimoire ceremony? Will he even get another Grimore now that he already possesses one?
After contemplating for a while, he decided that he should go. Maybe he will get the Black Five Leaf Clover and then something will be revealed to him by his White Five Leaf Clover.
Thinking till this, he decided to sleep but as he was about to sleep, faces of his mom, dad, uncle, aunty, cousins, and then finally, his Finacee, who had already seen a lot of dreams with him came to his mind. He remembered how Ragini had told him about her life and how he was already the only one she would ever think about and was his for the eternity. It was really very strange with that girl.
How can someone love someone so much in such a brief time? Surya still didn't know if he ever fell in love with her in the one year he tried to know her but he knew one thing, which was the fact that he would go back to his old world no matter what! That he would not leave that girl who already devoted her life to him.
Thinking till here, Surya decided that even he has to kill everyone in this world to return to his original world, he would do that without any hesitation. His resolve again changed something inside him and with a gust of some new information, sleep claimed him.

Next Morning, Around 4 am, Surya suddenly woke up and started heading out of the church.
Sister Lily, who was also starting to get up saw Asta going out but didn't feel anything wrong in it as Asta always went out to train early in the morning.
Surya started to walk towards the demon skeleton under which he was yesterday and after reaching there, he stared at the demon's eyes in contempt.
There was some clarity in his eyes as he saw the skeleton and after some time, he called forth his White Five Leaf clover.
Bringing his hand over the hovering grimoire, Surya bit his hand and let the blood flow on the grimoire which instantly started to shine with red light.
"I, Surya RajPurohit, of the Noble Blood, accept you as my Grimoire"
Said Surya while pouring his blood on the grimoire which was hungrily absorbing all of the blood which was coming from Surya's hand.
After a while, the light of the grimoire started to fade and Surya's hands automatically healed.
After seeing that whatever the book told him last night had worked, Surya looked at the skeleton and waved, surprisingly making the skeleton disappear and the sketch of the same skeleton appeared on the second page of his grimoire.
After doing what he came here to do, Surya just sat there while contemplating his old life.
He had everything. He had a loving family, He had a girl who gave her everything to him. Who was so devoted to him that she would always be there for him, no matter the time of the day. Granted his so-called friends turned on him but friends are not everything a person needs. He had power, he had influence, he had people who were ready to kill anyone on his order.
As Surya contemplated everything, he realized how he took everything for granted.
But now, he will do everything in his power to go back. He doesn't have any grand ambition to rule the universe, he would be happy and content by just spending the rest of his life with Ragini, who he now missed a lot.
Sensing his thoughts, The White grimoire which now had a red tint sent a message to Surya which first made Surya frown and then he smiled.
"Is that so?"
He voiced and with that, he got up and started walking towards the church.
.

"Is Asta still not back?" Asked Yuno who was ready to head towards the ceremony in which their grimoire will choose them.
Many teenagers were present there since all of them would go together and hence most of them were getting impatient while waiting for Asta.
"Dammit! Why do we even have to wait for that brat? He doesn't even have any magic power! Let's go and leave him be. He will only make a fool of himself if he comes."
Said one of them.
Many saw the truth in his words which although sounded harsh and rude but had logic in it.
It was well known that Asta doesn't possess even an ounce of magic power and this is only going to depress the little guy when no grimoire chooses him.
Many were taking pity on Asta while some were just getting impatient but then suddenly one of them saw Asta walking towards them.
"Finally!! Now let's go or we will miss the chance"
They didn't even wait for him to fully arrive and just started to walk towards the ceremony without giving Asta a second glance.
Yuno although waited for his friend but as he saw Asta coming towards him, he felt strange.
Not only him but Sister Lily, Father, and other children of the orphanage, all saw that Asta's walking style was a little too elegant.
No unnecessary hand movement, no unnecessary back movement.
He also didn't wear the overcoat and the headband, letting his hair fall gracefully.
Asta's body language looked a little too foreign for their comfort and he even ignored Yuno and everyone and just went past them towards the ceremony.
"What happened to Asta…." Said Sister Lily with a heavy heart as she thought that Asta might be falling into chronic depression.
"I just hope that a miracle happens and he gets a grimoire" Voiced Father with concern written all over his face.
Even the orphanage children who use to make fun of Asta were a little worried while Yuno furrowed his brows and just started following Asta.
.

The entire ground was lively as the shelves all around the library-type arena was filled with grimoires.
People had already started to get their grimoire and as Surya reached the grounds, one filthy Black Five-Leaf Clover Rushed towards him with blinding speed and instantly Surya caught it.
Looking that his best friend instantly got a grimoire, Yuno was about to congratulate him when suddenly a grimoire started to shine signifying and highlighting the four-leaf clover which was on the cover and directly descended towards Yuno.
This phenomenon instantly caused an uproar and Yuno was incredibly happy to see that he indeed had a chance to become a Magic Emperor with this kind of grimoire.
In all this uproar, Surya quietly slipped outside the ceremony ground with his Black Clover still in hands.
"Now let's see how it works"
Voiced Surya as he threw the Black Five leaf Clover in the air in front of him while walking and suddenly the White Five Leaf Clover emerged from his chest and swallowed the Black grimoire whole.
As soon as the White Grimore Swallowed his newly acquired Black Grimore, Time around Surya suddenly stopped for a second.
At this moment, His Grimore again sent some information in his mind after which everything turned to normal again.
"So That's how I become 'The Fallen'"....
