In Black clover with Grimoire of Omnitrix

Chapter 60: Chapter 55: News That Shook The Whole Kingdom.



When the parliament court hearing ended with Augustus Kira and the noble faction who supported him in his betrayal of his nephew Aldric Kira to ascend the throne.

After that, Ben, who was strangely quiet, and Charlotte hurriedly left the capital.

While many eyes were looking at him curiously seeing him get out of the courtroom in a hurry.

Feeling all the gazes on him, Ben couldn't help but curse himself internally.

Now he won't be able to avoid politics because it is going to unfold with him being the center.

"Charl, you go first... I will come back when my head is clear."

After exiting the parliament, Ben called Charlotte and asked her for some time to clear his mind with a little smile.

"____"

Nod~

"Let me accompany you... I will inform Sol to take care of our magic squad in my absence."

Hearing Ben wanted some time off, Charlotte looked at him worriedly and nodded her head, informing him of her intent to accompany him.

"It's okay, Charl... I will be fine. I will be back when I feel better."

Ben shook his head and patted Charlotte's shoulder with a gentle smile.

He was touched by hearing Charlotte wanting to put down the work as it was and accompany him so he wouldn't feel lonely.

"Are you sure? I am always here for you,"

with a worried tone, Charlotte asked Ben with concern.

After bidding farewell to Charlotte and sending her back alone, Ben left the capital alone, heading in another direction.

After three days...

It's been three days since Ben left the capital alone after informing Charlotte to free his mind.

But Charlotte didn't get any news from him for the past three days.

During these three days, many things had changed. The whole Clover Kingdom was in an uproar.

Many newspaper publications were frantically publishing news on the recent court trial held at the Clover Kingdom's capital.

In houses, bars, taverns, and streets all over, many citizens were reading the newspaper in shock.

They couldn't believe that the king they respected was a traitor who initiated a rebellion, killing the previous king and the queen to usurp the throne.

There was a huge number of citizens crowding before the Wizard King's palace, starting protests and demanding the traitor be killed immediately, not waiting until three days.

Seeing the commotion getting out of hand, Marx informed Wizard King Julius, who was being imprisoned in his office with a mountain of paperwork.

Now the kingdom was without a king, and more than ten times his work was shouldered on his back.

And it will be a huge headache for him to handle all this work until the new king is appointed.

The paperwork for Ben to become the king was going in full swing, and all the procedures were fully overseen by him, the Wizard King, in person to avoid any mishaps from happening.

Creak~

"My lord, the commotion outside is getting out of control. You need to step in to cool down the crowd."

Marx opened the door of the Wizard King's office and entered inside with a grim look on his face.

Sigh~

"Let's go..."

With a defeated sigh escaping from his mouth, Wizard King Julius stood from his place and walked out of the room.

When he arrived at the balcony, which is a high platform where he would usually award the Magic Knight squads who had performed well at the Star Awards Festival.

Seeing the Wizard King had finally come to address them, the crowd quieted down.

Feeling all the attention of the crowd on him, Wizard King Julius calmly, with a gentle smile, started to address them.

Stating that the traitor will receive an appropriate punishment in three days when Prince Benjamin Salvador Kira ascends to the throne as the 14th King of the Clover Kingdom.

Getting an explanation from the mouth of the Wizard King calmed the crowd down, and they started to disperse after getting the answer they wanted to hear.

"Marx... how many missions has Ben completed?"

Turning backwards, Wizard King Julius asked Marx while a little idea started to brew in his mind.

"He has completed 15 missions, of which 4 he was awarded 4 stars for completing important missions."

Hearing Wizard King Julius's question, Marx had already guessed what he wanted to do and informed him about it in detail.

After Ben's identity as the crown prince was announced, all the important details about him were collected to prevent the leakage of information about him to other kingdoms.

Even though they couldn't block the news about the current situation of the kingdom and the crown prince from the spies of the various kingdoms.

But they could do things like block information about his magic or the missions he completed to prevent enemies from judging his power capabilities until he ascends the throne.

At the borders of the Clover Kingdom, heavy numbers of Magic Knight troops were placed to prevent other kingdoms from having any funny thoughts about them.

All the Magic Knight squads were filled with various missions that kept them busy for the past three days.

If they completed three missions before they could have a sign, another three missions would be assigned to them.

Even though it was a good opportunity to earn more cash, it made the Black Bulls go into beast mode seeing the opportunity to earn a fortune.

Hage Village...

Hage Village's Orphanage...

The newspaper arrived at the doors of the orphanage, collected by one of the orphan kids, who took it towards the cabin of Father Orsi.

Knock~ knock~

"Father, the newspaper has arrived."

The kid knocked on the door and shouted inside to inform Father Orsi.

Crash~ thud~

Slam~

With a crashing noise coming from inside, along with hurried footsteps, the cabin's door opened.

Swoosh~

With lightning speed, Father Orsi took the newspaper and opened it hurriedly.

When his eyes landed on the first page, his hands started to tremble, his eyes widening in shock.

"It's true... it is our Ben... he is the crown prince."

With a stunned look on his face, he slowly murmured, which turned to astonishment, and he screamed in joy.

Hearing his scream, all the kids in the orphanage came to see why their father was screaming like this all of a sudden.

When Sister Lily, who was clipping the washed clothes outside, heard the scream, she hurried inside.

Hahaha~

Seeing the presence of all the kids near Father Orsi's cabin, she moved forward to see Father Orsi jumping and shouting with an excited look on his face as if he had lost his mind.

"Father... are you all right?"

Looking at the crazy father before her, Sister Lily asked him, with clear concern in her tone.

Hahaha~

"Sister Lily... look at it... it's Ben... Ben is the crown prince... didn't I say so... no one believed it. Look at the newspaper."

Not able to control his laughter, Father Orsi shoved the newspaper into the hands of Sister Lily.

And started crying happily that he was correct; his assumption was right. Ben was the crown prince.

With a shocked look, Sister Lily read the content of the newspaper loudly so everyone in the orphanage could hear her.

There was detailed information on how King Augustus Kira was a traitor and how he killed the previous king and his wife.

There was also the news of Ben, mentioning him as the crown prince who would soon be king in a week.

The newspaper was three days old.

Due to Hage Village being present in the forsaken realm and on the outskirts of the Clover Kingdom.

So only the important newspaper would arrive in Hage Village three days later, due to it being present in the forsaken realm.

Flashback...

When Father Orsi visited a nearby town for a little job, he overheard a conversation between Magic Knights who were chatting in the street.

At first, he didn't pay any attention, but hearing the story of the crown prince they were discussing made him remember a certain incident where a woman passed him a baby, Ben, before dying.

When the name of the crown prince Benjamin Salvador Kira was mentioned by one of the Magic Knights, Father Orsi froze in place.

Swoosh~

"Sir... sir, Magic Knight, did you mean the boy in the Blue Rose is the crown prince?"

With a shocked face, Father Orsi appeared before the Magic Knight in a flash and asked them about the prince.

"____"

"Yeah... leave my hand, old man."

Taking his hand from Father Orsi's grip, the Magic Knight turned and left with another Magic Knight.

Getting his answer, Father Orsi immediately returned to the village and broke the news to all of them.

After Father Orsi left in a hurry, the two Magic Knights turned into an empty alley and transformed into Wizard King Julius and his assistant Marx.

"Why are we doing this personally, my lord?"

With a confused look, Marx asked the question he'd been wanting to ask all day.

He was pulled into this by the Wizard King, who said it was an important mission that needed both of their attention.

Cough~

How could he say he did this to escape the paperwork?

"We need to build momentum for the crown prince."

With a slight answer, Wizard King Julius changed the topic to avoid being caught by his assistant.

They were going to many villages and towns in the forsaken realm to spread the news about the crown prince.

When Marx asked why they needed to do it personally, the Wizard King dodged the question.

Flashback ends...

But no one believed his words and said that he had lost his mind.

After waiting for three days, finally, the newspaper arrived containing the news about Ben being the crown prince.

Taking the newspaper from Sister Lily's hand after she read it, Father Orsi ran around the village showcasing the news to the villagers, to make them believe his words from earlier.
