A Chance Encounter

An introduction to another one of my Black Clover OCs, Isolde Tristina, as she runs into a certain squad.

❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️

Isolde hummed to herself while walking through the streets of the Common Realm. A small bag hung from her fingers. It was a nice clear day and the sky was the prettiest shade of light blue. A slight breeze pushed her teal hair back and forth. Fortunately, it was always tied back so she wouldn’t have to deal with the pain of it getting in her face. Her gray eyes followed a couple birds, distracting her from her surroundings.

“I’m so sorry!” A girl squealed as Isolde found herself on the ground. That’s what she got for not paying attention.

“It’s alright.” She took the girl’s hand to get back on her feet.

“I believe this is yours.” A boy with black hair and golden eyes held up her bag.

“Ah, thanks. You’re from the Golden Dawn, aren’t you?” Isolde remembered the prodigy from the Forsaken Realm that Rill had gone on and on about. She hadn’t been at the Magic Knights Entrance Exam this year but it sure felt like it.

“Yes. I’m Yuno.” There was an awkward pause where Isolde thought he was going to say more. Very straightforward, wasn’t he? Fortunately, his colleague stepped in.

“And I’m Mimosa Vermillion.” The ginger girl gave a small wave.

“From the same house as Captain Fuegoleon I presume?”

“We’re cousins.” She seemed like a pleasant girl.

“I thought I nearly lost you two!” Isolde’s eyes narrowed as she heard a familiar voice.

“And…Klaus.” Her lips straightened into a thin line. She saw him return her gaze with the same coldness.

“Sorry! We accidentally ran into someone,” Mimosa apologized. Her senior wasn’t paying any attention though because he and Isolde were caught in a staring match.

“You know each other?” Yuno asked.

“Yes. We joined the Magic Knights at the same time. This is-”

“I’m Isolde Tristina, Vice Captain of the Aqua Deer.” Oh, she could feel Klaus’ silent rage after interrupting him. He was such an easy target. A slight smile crossed her face.

“What are you doing here?” Klaus asked.

“Getting some tea for Rill.” She held up the bag. “It just happened to be a mistake that I ran into your new members. Can’t believe the Golden Dawn has a peasant and he got placed with you.”

“Are you a noble?” Isolde could see Yuno’s gaze harden in the same way hers had.

“No. I’m from edge of the Common Realm. Class is everything around here though, isn’t it?” She side-eyed the blue-haired male. Of course he didn’t reply. Her eyes softened as she looked at Yuno.

“I hope things work out for you. You don’t seem like the type to listen to others’ opinions.” She grinned. “I like that.” She nodded at Mimosa. “It was very nice to meet you too, but I’d best get back to our base. Who knows what our Captain has been up to.” With a wave, Isolde walked off while the Golden Dawn members went in the other direction.

“Klaus, is there something going on between you and Miss Isolde?” Mimosa asked. She knew her senior could be strict at times, but he didn’t really get mad in the way she saw just now. Then again, the woman seemed to like to push his buttons. It still seemed like there was a lot more and she heard Klaus sigh like he was trying to relieve a headache.

“It’s a long story.”
