Julius Novachrono carries the title of Wizard King with a powerful class that only a few characters from Black Clover can equal. Asta, Yami, and Magna may not carry themselves with the same poise as Julius Novachrono, but the way they are able to get results nearly matches the young Wizard King's efforts. Yami does especially well when compared side by side with Julius, but nobody truly matches up to him except others who have borne the title of Wizard King.
Lumiere Silvamillion Clover is the original Wizard King, and the only other character besides Julius Novachrono to carry this title onscreen. In order to earn the position of Wizard King, one has to achieve both physical and mental success over a long period of service. Julius and Lumiere have both achieved this level of success and carry the wisdom of their experiences in each and every word they share.
10 "We Can Come To Understand Each Other" - Lumiere Silvamillion Clover
The very first man to wear the title of Wizard King was not actually a King. Lumiere Silvamillion Clover was but a prince when he shared these words, but since he didn't earn the title of Wizard King until after his demise, quotes from his former life are all fans have to look to for inspiration.
Black Clover puts a large focus on Lumiere's skill as a mediator between the elven people and his kinfolk in the human world. The words he speaks here are meant to inspire both groups to grow together, despite their racial and cultural differences
9 "The Path I've Walked Is Mine" - Julius Novachrono
This quote may seem to contradict Julius Novachrono's statement to "stay humble, and keep moving forward," but perhaps humility is not the true opposite of self-acknowledgement. Perhaps, recognizing where one has been and owning the past is not pride, but a form of pointed humility.
Hearing Julius Novachrono accept the path he has walked makes it clear that he has no interest in dodging the responsibilities bestowed upon him as Wizard King. His confidence is inspiring and his humility enlightening - the marks of a good and wise leader.
8 "I Can't Trust Someone That Would Go Easy On Their Own Comrades In This Exam" - Julius Novachrono
This quote may seem out of place for fans looking for inspiration, but considering the setting and characters surrounding the Wizard King when he says it, these words are very inspiring.
To know that the Wizard King is capable of maintaining a calm presence that prioritizes a healthy learning environment, even during Langris' forbidden magic temper tantrum, proves that staying calm under pressure is possible. In fact, Julius' words promote the idea of leaning into the pressures of conflict in order to grow, which is a twist on inspiration that most leaders fail to acknowledge.
7 "I Was Born With Magic That Steals The Future, But As Wizard King, What I Aim To Do Is Create A Future Where There Is No Discrimination" - Julius Novachrono
A number of antiheroes would be helped by taking these inspiring words from Julius Novachrono to heart. Despite being born with an incredible magic type and learning spells that could allow Julius to live forever, the Wizard King uses his strength to help others instead.
Though fans don't know much about Julius' rise to power, it was surely not an easy path to walk down. For a man born with his strength to understand the ignorant biases of his people and fight for a better world is truly inspiring, regardless of the way he chooses to frame it with his words. Of course, Julius is as well-spoken as always when he drops this quote for Black Clover fans.
6 "It's Not Like It Changed Dramatically, But Gradually, Certainly, Little By Little This Country's Civilians Are Beginning To Change" - Julius Novachrono
During the flashback that interrupts the battle between Julius Novachrono and Licht, the Wizard King provides a snapshot of his personal beliefs. After explaining his own history as a Magic Knight, fans are left with a quote that inspires through hope.
While serving as the Wizard King, Julius has seen his people move toward the path of inclusion that he so desperately desires to see become the cultural norm in the Clover Kingdom. Despite dreaming of this inclusion, Julius understands that growth takes time, and these words make that clear by inspiring readers who may be struggling to recognize growth in their own lives to enjoy the little things.
5 "It Was A Magic That's Nurtured By One's Accumulated Hard Work" - Julius Novachrono
One of Julius Novachrono's most admirable qualities is his ability to recognize hard work as the cornerstone of merit. During his time serving as a magic knight, the current Wizard King learned about magic that could be born from hard work. In fact, the sort of magic that comes from effort, perseverance, and ingenuity is what makes the Clover Kingdom so unique according to the Queen of the Heart Kingdom, Lolopechka.
The fact that Julius is able to acknowledge this, rather than succumbing to the anti-commoner rhetoric that the majority of royals preach, is inspiring.
4 "The Possibilities Of Magic. . .Of Humans, Is Endless" - Julius Novachrono
These words perfectly characterize the state of the Clover Kingdom under Julius Novachrono's reign. During his battle with Licht, Julius proves that magic has been pushed into some incredible areas thanks to the ingenuity of the Clover Kingdom's mages. Still, his kingdom has a long way to go before overcoming the hierarchies created by fixating on magic power.
The final part of this quote seems to correct the former, suggesting that Julius understands that anyone can do wonderful and ingenious things, despite their ability, or inability, to manipulate mana.
3 "I Wanted To Create A New Future With You. A Land Where There Was No Discrimination Or Hate" - Julius Novachrono
These words are as inspiring as they are heartbreaking. In a world where magic is everything, Julius Novachrono wishes to create a world where life is everything. A world where each and every human being can live without fear of hate or discrimination.
These inspirational words pierce the heart of fans in the same way that the words, "Yami, I'm leaving the rest to you," might. After saving the Clover Kingdom and being slain by Licht, Julius' inspiring actions and words are left in the hands of the Captain of the Black Bulls. Luckily, Yami doesn't seem to have a discriminating bone in his entire body.
2 "You Shouldn't Shut The Doors To Your Own Potential." - Lumiere Silvamillion Clover
Before Julius Novachrono took on the title of Wizard King, a young prince earned the title by slaying the beast forged by combining Elven and Forbidden Magic. Before Lumiere was forced to come face to face with his old friend Licht and earn the title of Wizard King, he spent the majority of time reading, studying, and inventing in his private library.
With Secre's help, Lumiere pushed past his limits without having to rely on the battlefield to do so. These words prove that Lumiere is focused on growth and inspiration, despite being forced to cut down the leader of the elven people.
1 "Continuously Gaining Merit Is Everything. Anyone Who Can't Do That Can Never Stand At The Top" - Julius Novachrono
"It's merit. You can't protect others with pride, and the trust of others comes with merit." This is easily Julius Novachrono's most well-known quote. When Asta and Yuno first meet the Wizard King, they ask Julius about what it takes to earn the title of Wizard King themselves and these words mark his reply.
Julius' answer shocks the characters and viewers alike. While many would assume that the Wizard King must focus on class and power, Julius puts his emphasis elsewhere. The current Wizard King prioritizes results and uses his status to promote hard work and value over any other trait. It's as simple as it is inspiring. Work hard and you will find success.
