Jetray can be seen flying behind Nero, with both of them drawing closer towards the Magic Emperor's statue.
Nero ends up sitting atop the statue with Jetray following suit, causing the scene to zoom out and transition into montages, of the Black Bulls and Ben's team, before a green logo of the story's title appears:
OMNIVERSAL CLOVER
0:16-0:26 = Asta is seen eating a piece of bread at a table alongside Noelle and Charmy, until eventually he chokes on the food.
Asta frantically motions towards a glass of water, to which Noelle promptly gives him, of which he gulps it down in one full swig, sighing in content.
Meanwhile,in the background, Luck is seen flying around using his lighting magic before rushing through the open door followed by Magma annoyingly throwing a wave of flames after him.
The wave of flame instead hits the drapery nearby the door, causing it to be set ablaze. With a groan, Ben transforms into Water Hazard and douses the flames. The steam coming from the door causes Yami to get up irritably, putting Water Hazard on edge and causing Rook to smirk.
0:27-0:31 = The scene transitions from a smiling Klaus, Mimosa, Yuno and Sylph to Sister Theresa sitting next to Maria and the other kids, reading a fairy tale.
0:31-0:33 = The scene changes again to show the captains of the 8 main Magic Knight squads standing inside a throne room sideways and looking forward.
0:33-0:35 = Turning back to face them with an initially somber expression before smiling is Julius.
0:35-0:44 = Asta and Yuno are shown fist-bumping each other in a page-filled background, of which an image of Rook and Ben doing the same thing appears above the duo, before the faces of the two childhood rivals are shown close up.

0:47-0:49 = Asta, Noelle, Luck, Magna,Rook and Xlr8 are shown entering battle stances as a couple of white-robed wizards fly towards them,to which Magna and Rook launch a wave of flames and a series of energy blasts at them, of which the wizards manage to dodge effortlessly.
0:50-0:52 = Two Wizards are seen trapped in a spinning tornado by Xlr8, lifting them up high enough for Asta to slam them down to the ground with his sword from above. When he notices three more floating towards him, Asta yells out.
0:52-0:57 = Noelle hears his cry and uses her water magic to trap the three oncoming attackers in the air,thus creating a perfect opening for Luck, who's falling from the sky with his magic activated.
0:57-1:06 = In a dark forest,a member of the Eye of The Midnight Sun sends a series of light blasts that end up hitting gigantic diamond pillars created by a smirking Diamondhead.
One of the pillars flies high into the air, with Yami standing on it before jumping towards his attacker,along with several pillars falling behind him as he's about to swing his sword.
Ben,Rook,Asta and the remaining members of the Black Bulls are seen taking a final stand against Charmcaster, with her overflowing mana tainting the air and sky itself.
With a maniacal laugh, Charmcaster assumes the form of a Dragon, briefly shocking the group before they regain their resolve. They would then let out a battle cry as they ran towards the transformed sorceress,to which she responds by letting out a stream of purple flames that would end up clashing with a brilliant flash of green.
1:06-1:12 = Asta lays on a grassy field with his hands outstretched and his eyes dimly shut, breathing heavily before Nero flies and sits on his chest, and a pair of shadows are cast on him.
Asta's eyes would open wide upon seeing that one's who stood before him were Ben and Rook, both with a smile on their face, causing Asta to sport a small smile of his own. The three sun would then turn to look back at the setting sun appearing from behind the demon skull, with Nero now perched on Asta's hair.
1:12-1:19 = A somber expression is cast on Gwen's face as she holds up a group photo of herself and the Alien Force, with eyes glued on Ben and Rook in particular. Kevin gently places his hand on her shoulder, causing her to briefly look at him, before looking back at Hex who has conjured up a dark red portal. He flashes her a smile of encouragement, causing her and Kevin to smile as well.
1:19-1:26 = A transition from Young Yuno to current day Yuno would occur, with him holding a neutral expression as he watched Asta go through that same transition, only with a smile on his face.
1:26-1:30 = Yuno's expression would then soften up recollecting all the hardships he and Asta faced throughout their youth, and how they managed to overcome them.
1:30-1:33 = In a similar vein,Ben would recollect when he first found the Omnitrix, and the growth he had experienced since then, with images of,Gwen, Kevin and Grandpa Max coming to his mind.

1:56-2:00 = With his blaster in his right hand,Rook can be seen running in an arch, using acrobatic manaveurs to dodge light based attacks from Fana, while shooting her with his one attacks,most of which either miss,get dodged or countered. A shadow is cast on her, causing her to look up with wide eyes before jumping back to avoid a downard slash from Asta.
She is then trapped in a tornado by Yuno standing behind her, lifting her high into the air, with Rook jumping up to her level.
2:00-2:06 = Switching his Proto-Tool to Tonfa mode,Rook proceeds to bring it down hard on the face of a startled Fana, causing a fade to black.
2:06-2:15 = A 6 year old Ben and Asta can be seen running on opposite sides of one another with a determined expression. They would then shift into their 10 year old selves respectively, then to their 15 year old selves, with Ben in particular shifting into his 16 year old self.
2:15-2:18 = Now neck and neck as their current selves, after images of their respective allies would be seen in a closeup of their pupils, with both of them adopting a new color; Ben an eerie pink, and Asta a dark red.
2:18-2:27 = Floating across the vast space of LedgerDomain with her hands crossed on her chest, and her eyes closed is Charmcaster with a peaceful expression on her face. A silhouette of her father, SpellBinder, would briefly appear behind her.
2-27:2:33 = Memories of her father's death,her and her uncle Hex being forced out of LedgerDomain by Addwaitya, and the hardships she faced during her younger years as a result came to Charmcaster's mind.

2:43-2:47 = Charmcaster's mental landscape would then begin to shatter rapidly.
2:47-2:51 = As a result, she would immediately open her eyes to see Present day Ben standing in front of her with a warm smile on his face.

2:56-3:02 = The hands of Rook's family could be seen placing themselves on Rook's back,as if to push him onwards.
3:02-3:07 = A view from behind shows and Asta can be seen standing inside a mostly destroyed throne room, facing a shrouded figure sat on the throne with a relaxed postures.
3:07-3:12 = A highlight reel composed of some of the most significant battles Ben and Asta have engaged in either alone or in part of a group would play out, before panning to a front view of the both of them, bloodied and their clothes tattered.
3:12-3:20 = Drawing out his magic sword and activating the Omnitrix, Ben and Asta would assume battle stances as they looked intently at the shrouded figure who began to grin, causing both of them to let out a battle cry before dashing towards their opponent.
3:20-3:29 = Inside a dark room,a flicker of light would briefly be cast on these items respectively; Rook's Proto-Tool, Yuno's Grimoire, Charmcaster's Staff of Ages, Ben's Omnitrix and Asta's Anti-Magic Sword, before the entire room would be illuminated, showing all five items laid out on a table.
I significantly tweaked and extended the original opening MiniTennyson,as his only covered half of the song. It still stands that this opening was only possible due to his assistance to which I'm immensely grateful for, and hope you are satisfied with the final product.
I also have in mind to do more future openings during parts of the story where I feel it would be most appropriate.
Now, this chapter was initially supposed to contain the opening and the proper chapter 3, but due to some unforseen circumstances,I wasn't able to complete chapter 3 today,so I've decided to upload this instead.
Which brings me to the announcements regarding Omniversal Clover:
1) Chapter 3 may most likely be released sometime this week. I can't say when for certain, but hopefully before Sunday. Once it is released, Omniversal Clover will most likely adopt a once a month or twice a month upload schedule,at least for the nearby future until my free time is a lot less congested.
2) I have to profoundly thank each and every single one of you who's read and supported Omniversal Clover. You surpassed my expectations, making this not just one of the fastest growing Ben 10 and Black Clover Crossover stories ever, but also one of my fastest growing stories as well. All of which is only possible as a result of the support you've shown.
I intend to make this story one of the best crossover stories under the Ben 10 and Black Clover Crossover section, and I'm sure with your support, that can become a reality.
3) That support also extends to the voting poll I held the day I released this story,as less than a day after, we had a winner in Charmcaster by a landslide. (11-4! The runner-up being Mimosa)
As such,in order to make the voting more balanced and fair for the participants, I've extended the total number of votes required for a winner to be decided to be 50.
Whichever character reaches 50 votes first will be the character shipped with Ben.
Now, these are the contestants, and the total number of votes they've garnered, with one new contender added as per request:
1) Hope/ Charmcaster: 13 Votes.
2) Mimosa Vermilion: 10 Votes.
3) Sol Marron: 6 Votes.
4) Fana : 4 Votes.
5) Grey: 3 Votes.
6) Mariella: 2 Votes.
7) . Charmy Pappitson: 1 Vote.
8) Noelle Silva: 1 Vote
9) Rebecca Scarlet: 1 Vote.
10) Secre Swallowtail: 1 Vote.
11) Vanessa Enoteca : 1 Vote.
Hopefully, Chapter 3 will be released sooner rather than later. Until then, please, have yourselves a good one.
