His constant approach towards the Sister strikes a conversation between him and the other orphans of the church. One of them, Yuno, explains to him several reasons that implies Asta's constant approach is simply annoying.

The conversations then move towards the difference in talent between Asta and the more talented Yuno with the former is convinced that once he received the greatest grimoire during the ceremony, he could join the Magic Knights and becomes the Magic Emperor. One of the orphans, Nash, argues that only people with high social standings could achieve such dreams and completely denies Asta of any chance for a counterargument.

Asta then storms away while vowing to prove Nash otherwise. The Sister is worried at one point, but Yuno quickly calms her down.

Sometime later, around March, Asta and Yuno turn 15 years old and are eligible to receive their grimoires. The two of them, along with the other tenants of the church, go to the Grimoire Tower where the acceptance ceremony is held.

As the other attendees start laughing at him, a bring glow manifests from Yuno's direction as he receives his grimoire. Everyone then realizes that Yuno has just received a grimoire with a four-leaf clover insignia.
