In Black clover with Grimoire of Omnitrix

After giving his order to Harry to conduct the census all over the kingdom, Ben accompanied Charlotte and the others to show them around.

chirp~ chirp~

thud~

Suddenly, an anti-bird flew like a meteor and hit the back of his head as the group entered the royal garden.

ouch~

"Nero? How are you?"

Rubbing the back of his head where Nero hit him, Ben asked the little anti-bird with a surprised look.

chirp~ chirp~ (Where the hell did you go?)

chirp~ chirp~ (Why didn't you take me with you?)

After steadying herself and shaking her head to shake off the dizziness, Nero turned and looked at Ben, who was smiling at her, with narrowed eyes and started to scold him.

beak~ beak~

While angrily chirping, Nero pecked Ben's head a few more times as she flew around him.

"Sorry... sorry, Nero... I won't leave you behind next time."

ouch~

chirp~ (Next time...?)

"Yeah... yeah, there won't be a next time."

Looking at Nero, who was pouting at him and pointing her wing at him, Ben apologized to her genuinely.

Even though Nero is in her cursed form, she and Ben share a deep bond.

She has seen Ben growing up, the hardships he faced, his joy, his sadness, his loneliness, and much more from when he was just five years old.

After meeting with Nero, Ben has never been separated from her for more than three days.

If a mission were to take a long time, she would always accompany him.

chirp~ (Humph...)

After hearing Ben's sincere apology, Nero quieted down and jumped on top of his head, reclaiming her rightful place.

"____"

Seeing the interaction between Ben and the anti-bird Nero, who was acting more human, Charlotte raised an eyebrow in surprise and narrowed her eyes, eyeing the anti-bird.

Nero looked back at her with deadpan eyes.

sigh~

Seeing Nero accept his apology, Ben sighed in relief and opened the system.

Ding...

[FP Bar: 945/500] --> [New Alien: ???]

Looking at the system screen, Ben saw that his fame points had risen to 945 in just five days, skyrocketing from 10 to 945.

In the last five days alone, he had gained a total of 935 FP points.

"System, unlock a new transformation."

After some thought, Ben asked the system to unlock the new transformation since his FP points had exceeded the requirement.

Ding...

[Reward Being Issued...]

Ding...

[New Alien Obtained: Worst.] {Image here.}

Ding...

[FP Bar: 445/500] --> [New Alien: ???] 

"____"

Looking at the name of the new alien transformation, Ben was left speechless.

This was the first time his system had unlocked an alien that seemed very useless other than being a punching bag.

sigh~

"It seems like my luck today sucks..."

With a pained look, Ben opened his grimoire, where the image of the alien transformation "Worst" appeared along with text in an unknown language.

thud~

Closing his grimoire, Ben clicked the dial of his Omnitrix and looked at the new transformation, which was projected as a holographic image.

The Worst is a yellow, fat, round blob-like alien who wears a pair of green underwear with white stripes on it.

He has elephant-like feet with three toes, and bear-like hands with three claws that resemble thick, blunt nails.

He also has wart-like bumps on his forehead and both arms.

The Worst's Omnitrix symbol is located on his protruding belly button.

The Worst is nearly impervious to physical harm.

He can withstand heavy physical and energy attacks due to his soft, blob-like body.

The Worst has malleable skin, allowing him to absorb physical impacts.

He is resistant to extreme heat and immune to lava.

The Worst is naturally resistant to poisons and has enhanced strength.

It may seem impressive, but there's a drawback: he can feel the pain caused by these attacks.

Aside from his fatty body and enhanced strength, the Worst has no other special abilities.

Royal Knight Base...

The current Royal Knight Captain, David Traven, was reviewing the order from the Crown Prince, delivered by one of the royal guards stationed at the Crown Prince's cabin.

"____"

With narrowed eyes, David reread the content to confirm its details.

hehe~

"Interesting..."

After confirming the royal order's content, David grinned widely.

He had been chosen specifically by Harry, the previous Royal Guard Captain.

Harry had dismissed all royal guards who were close to the former king, Augustus Kira, to prevent any risks near the Crown Prince.

With the help of Wizard King Julius, Harry had selected trustworthy royal guards and their captain.

David Traven, now the Royal Knight Captain, was a former Crimson Lion member who had retrained after a fierce clash with his former family.

After fully reading the royal order, he summoned all key royal guards in leadership positions to conduct a meeting.

After five minutes...

The meeting concluded, and the royal guards hurried in all directions, preparing to execute the mission that the crown prince had issued.

Royal Garden...

In the royal garden, Ben and the others were sitting on the grass lawn under the shadows of one of the trees in the garden.

sigh~

"Ben, tomorrow, at this time, you will be king."

Looking at the two squirrels who were playing on top of one of the branches trying to steal peanuts from each other, Mary spoke softly.

Previously, she and Ben were commoners without any noble connection, while Anny was from a noble family.

"Yeah... to be honest, I don't want to become one... but when the wizard king visited me and tried to convince me, I remembered something."

Hearing Mary's question, Ben replied calmly, looking at the same situation with a dazed look.

"____"

When Charlotte heard Ben say these words, she suddenly remembered the speech he gave when he looked at his village from the sky as they were flying on the broomstick.

Flashback...

When Charlotte and Ben were flying in the sky above Hage village.

"Oh, but why are there not many houses in the village?"

Charlotte looked around the village with interest.

She noted how poor the village was, even though the people were engaged in agriculture.

Houses were scarce, and the security system was very low.

"Well, Captain, this is just a small village far away from the capital and located in the common realm. So, you should understand that nobles won't care too much about us who are commoners."

When Ben heard Charlotte's question, he started to explain the situation in the village to her.

She turned her head and looked at Ben, who looked very upset.

Flashback ends...

"Ben, you will be the best king the kingdom will ever have."

With a gentle smile forming on her lips, Charlotte, who was sitting beside him, laid her head on top of his chest.

"____"

"____"

"____"

Looking at their captain, who always looked at men with disgust, now laying her head on top of Ben's chest.

"____"

Suddenly, Charlotte, who was drawing circles with her finger, froze and realized that they were in front of their squad mates.

"It... it's not like you think..."

She immediately got up and looked at the three women, Sol, Anny, and Mary from her squad, who were present and looking at her silently.

Charlotte's face turned red.

'Damn, Charlotte, why did you act on impulse.'

She started to stutter and tried to cover it up, but her red face and avoiding eye contact gave her away.

"Captain, we didn't see anything."

Looking at their captain's poor acting skills, Mary turned her head and, with a little red hue on her cheeks, stated.

"What happened, Captain? I dozed off for a few minutes... I completely missed what happened before."

hehe~

Even Sol tried her best not to embarrass her captain and tried to play along with Mary.

"Huh~"

"I... I... I was looking at the squirrels there. So I didn't pay any attention."

Seeing that only she was left, Anny paused for a second, and her eyes fell on the squirrels who were playing.

Suddenly, an idea popped up in her mind, and she explained to Charlotte awkwardly.

'Damn, Charlotte, why did you act on impulse.'

Looking at the poor acting skills of the three young ladies before her and their cheeks, which had a light red hue, made her curse herself in her mind.

[ Ding... ]

[ FP Bar: 635/500 ] --> [ New Alien: ??? ]

[ Ding... ]

While the drama was unfolding before him, Ben was about to tease Charlotte with a smirk but was stopped by the system screen.

Which showed his FP points suddenly rising all of a sudden.

'It seems like the census started its harvest.'

giggle~

Seeing Ben in high spirits and giggling at her in this situation.

"Why are you laughing?"

With narrowed eyes, Charlotte sent daggers to Ben, who was giggling at her, seeing her getting caught in the act.

humph~

She turned her head while pouting at him with mock anger on her face.

sigh~

'System, unlock new transformation.'

Shaking his head with a silly smirk, Ben asked the system to unlock another transformation, seeing his FP points had suddenly raised by 180 FP points.

[ Ding... ]

[ Reward Being Issued... ]

[ Ding... ]

[ New Alien Obtained: Up Chunk. ] { Image here. }

[ Ding... ]

[ FP Bar: 190/500 ] --> [ New Alien: ??? ]

Looking at the system screen where it shows the name "Up Chunk," Ben was happy.

Up Chunk is one of the best aliens suited for a world where most of the attacks are based on mana, which is a type of energy food in front of Up Chunk.

It would send it right back at the enemy with double the power compared to the original power of the attack which was initially launched at Up Chunk.
