The Replica Magic Starting from Black Four

Chapter 158 Dark Entanglement - Dimensional Slash vs. Demonic Venerable - Spatial Slash! Another Deal

Seeing Asta and the mysterious young man opposite him looking completely unguarded, Yami expressionlessly raised his hand, grabbed Asta's head, and threw it backward.

"Ah!" Asta cried out, and with a "plop," he fell into the sea behind him.

Asta thrashed about in the sea for a couple of moments before finally managing to grab onto the ice, looking utterly dejected.

"You idiot, talking to such a dangerous guy."

Noelle quickly reached out and pulled Asta out of the sea, glancing warily at Captain Yomi and Miki, who were in the center of the ice, and whispered.

"No, I don't think so. I don't think the other person is a bad person." Asta, whose body was soaking wet, shivered involuntarily as he touched the ice, and then muttered.

Yami paid no attention to the conversation between Asta and Noelle behind him, staring coldly at Yuki, and drew the katana from his waist.

"No matter who you are, I have no interest in chatting with you here. Just hand over the magic stone."

Yami tossed the cigarette dangling from her lips onto the side, and a sharp magical aura emanated from her, creating a heavy pressure that permeated the surroundings.

Don't be fooled by the seemingly easy-going nature of this mysterious young man. The fact that he was able to defeat an opponent as strong as Victor shows that no matter how easy-going he is, you can't help but be wary of him.

"I can give you the magic stone, but how about we make another deal?"

Yuki took out a magic stone from his pocket, casually held it in his hand, and suddenly a smile appeared on his face as he looked at Yomi.

Yami paused, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

Although he had guessed that the other party's target was Witt of the White Night Demon Eye, he did not expect that the other party would be so indifferent to the magic stone.

and many more!

Yami's gaze towards Yuki suddenly changed: "You are that masked man!"

The other party's words, "another transaction," clearly indicate that this is not the first time they have traded with him. The only person he has traded with is that mysterious masked man who appears through magical projection.

Mogi maintained his smiling expression, neither admitting nor denying anything.

However, in Yami's eyes, Mogi's silence at this moment was tantamount to an admission.

At this moment, Yami finally understood why the other party's target was Witt.

Based on previous speculation and intelligence.

A split has emerged within the Eye of the Night. Richter and the Three Eyes, who are attacking the capital, should be the stronger party, while the mysterious masked man who is delivering messages to him should be the weaker party.

Although their specific objectives are unclear, based on previous intelligence, they simply want to use the power of the Magic Knights to eliminate Richter's powerful faction.

Originally, Yami thought that the masked man, being the weaker party, should be far weaker than Richter and the others, but now, the other party was actually able to kill Witt, who possessed such great strength.

This undoubtedly made Yami doubt his previous analysis.

What is a transaction?

Yami paused briefly before speaking in a cold voice.

Actually, more than making a deal, Yami wanted to take the magic stone and the mysterious person in front of him back to the capital. However, given the strength the other party had shown, whether he could win or not was another matter. If the other party wanted to escape, he wouldn't be able to stop him at all.

Rather than turning against each other outright, it's better to maintain the current form of the transaction.

"I don't want anyone else to hear about the details of the transaction before it's made."

Momo smiled slightly.

In an instant!
Yami's pupils changed, and he suddenly disappeared from his spot, rushing towards Asta and Noelle.

But suddenly, the ice in the area where Yami was located rose up from the ground, and at the same time, sharp ice pillars shot out from the ice surface, enveloping Yami!
"Dark Entanglement - Nameless Slash!"

A cold glint flashed in Yami's eyes, and the katana in his hand transformed into a black afterimage, instantly shattering all the ice pillars that were thrusting towards him.

The other side.

Miki had already arrived in front of Asta and Noelle.

"Water Creation Magic: Sea Dragon's Nest!"

Noelle's tense nerves finally kicked in, and she released the defensive magic she had prepared long ago.

Wow!

The hemispherical water shield immediately enveloped Noelle and Asta, but before Noelle could relax, Mumu's fist, wrapped in magic, slammed into the hemispherical water shield.

boom!
The "Sea Dragon's Nest," which had always displayed astonishing defense, was blasted apart by a single punch in Noelle's wide, pale purple eyes, leaving her stunned on the spot.

"what!"

Unlike Noelle, Asta didn't freeze up. With a roar, despite his broken arm, he endured the excruciating pain and swung his arm, using the Demon Slayer Sword to sweep across the tree.

Swish!
Miki's figure disappeared.

Asta's attack missed, and then Asta felt a sharp pain in the back of his neck, and his vision blurred instantly.

A faint voice reached Asta's ears before he lost consciousness.

"It's still too weak."

boom!boom!
Asta and Noelle rolled their eyes back and collapsed onto the ice, unconscious.

Whoosh!
A blade wreathed in dark magic appeared on Momoki's back.

boom--!
The ear-piercing sound of weapons clashing exploded in the air!

The sword made of mineral magic in the hand blocked Yomi's swift attack.

After a brief encounter, the weapons in their hands clashed rapidly in the air once again, leaving afterimages flashing across the ice surface.

boom! boom! boom!
A dense cacophony of sounds and sparks flew between the two weapons.

Wielding a mineral weapon, Miki swung it rapidly, clashing with Yami's katana hundreds of times in a short period of time!

"Nameless Slash!"

Yami suddenly exerted force on her wrist, and a series of black slashes of dark magic enveloped Yuki.

call!
Mumu exhaled, his eyes narrowed, and he swung the ore weapon forward with both hands, instantly transforming it into an enormous ore victory sword.

Rumble!
Numerous black slashes collided with the Sword of Victory, exploding between the two with a deafening roar!
Miki and Yomi also stopped what they were doing at the same time.

"So this is dark magic? It's truly destructive magic. No wonder you're called the 'God of Destruction,' Captain Yami."

As Yuki looked at the massive, broken and incomplete sword of victory, he released his grip on the huge hilt, and the sword of victory vanished into magic.

The reason for suddenly attacking Asta and Noelle was not only to prevent them from hearing the details of the upcoming deal, but more importantly, Yoshiki wanted to witness Yami's dark magic.

This is one of the rare Netherworld-level spells!

Through a brief fight.

Miki already had a certain understanding of dark magic. If light magic was the symbol of "speed", then dark magic was the proof of "destructive power".

Mineral magic is inherently extremely durable, and its hardness increases significantly as the magic power of the elm wood increases.

Now, it has been destroyed like this by just a few ordinary magic slashes from dark magic, which shows how powerful dark magic is!
"This is not the attitude of cooperation." Yomi said coldly, raising his katana once more.

Seeing that Ye Jian looked like he was about to fight again, Mumu spread his hands and quickly said, "I didn't intend to hurt your two members. I just wanted them to sleep for a while."

Neither side used their full strength in the previous battle; it was merely a test of each other's strength.

From the probing just now, Yuki realized that Yami's strength was no weaker than Witt's, but in reality, the two were completely different. At least, Yami would not fall into the kind of manic state that Witt was in, where he was controlled by his emotions.

This guy, jokingly referred to as an unconventional "protagonist," is the most difficult to deal with because he constantly pushes his limits during battles.

Moreover, now is not the time to take action against the leaders of the Magic Knights.

however.

Just because Miki doesn't want to continue fighting doesn't mean Yami thinks so too.

As the captain of the Magic Knights of the Clover Kingdom, how could Yami allow the initiative to remain in the hands of the other party?

"As the leader, I cannot stand by and watch you lay a hand on my members without doing anything."

"If you want to make a deal, you'll have to take this move first!"

Yami gripped the katana with both hands, preparing to strike, and his entire aura suddenly changed.

The dark magic that was originally emanating rapidly gathered towards the tip of the blade, and the blade instantly turned black!
Mogi clearly sensed that not only magic, but also the aura emanating from Yami was simultaneously contracting and gathering towards the blade.

A sense of impending doom washed over him, making Mumu's heart skip a beat.

This is……

Yuki's expression changed, guessing that Yami wanted to use the super-powerful magic he had comprehended from the underwater temple to attack him.

This is an attack that's said to be able to sever dimensions!

Mumu had no intention of taking the attack head-on, so he moved his feet to dodge.

But Yami seemed to have anticipated this all along.

"Dark Entanglement - Black Hole!"

Swish!
Suddenly, dark magic formed a black hole the size of a basketball between the two, like a black hole, emitting an astonishing suction force out of thin air.

The figure of Mumu, who was about to leave the spot, was forcibly restrained by this amazing instant. Even if he wanted to move, his speed was slowed down by several beats due to the gravitational influence of the black hole.

The intense sense of crisis reached its peak at this moment!

In particular, the passive effects of beast magic made Yuki's sense of crisis even stronger.

Seeing the black dark magic on the blade of the night leaping like flames, Miki instantly drew the Demon Sword from the alternate dimension.

Since we can't avoid it, we'll just have to confront it head-on!
"Dark Entanglement - Dimensional Slash!"

Suddenly, an astonishing aura erupted from Yami's body, and he swung his katana down with great force.

boom!
A massive black slash appeared in the air in an instant, and the intense sense of crisis caused goosebumps to rise on Yumu's body.

"Demon's Curse - Spatial Slash!"

Momo poured all the surging spatial magic power within his body into the Demon Sword, causing the groove in the middle of the blade to emit a dazzling light as he roared.

The slash, imbued with spatial magic, was also launched by the Demon's Sword!

Two terrifying magical slashes collided in an instant, without a loud boom or a piercing sound.

At the instant the two strikes made contact, the space between them distorted like a vortex, and the aftershocks from the two astonishing forces easily split the entire ice surface in two.

The sea below also showed an incredible fracture, as if it had been forcibly separated by some force!

Om-!
The distorted space in the middle trembled, and the two magical slashes completely dissipated. The space returned to normal, and there was not a sound throughout the entire process.

But it is precisely because of this silent stillness that the terror of the attack just now is even more apparent!
Yu Mu let out a breath and glanced at the spot beside him out of the corner of his eye.

There was a clear, sharp cut on the ice, stretching outwards.

Click!

Click!

After a brief moment of silence, the solid ice beside Mumu instantly shattered and melted into the sea.

Mogi's eyes narrowed slightly; it seemed he had lost this exchange of blows.

The Demon-Slaying Sword's inherent magic-breaking properties, combined with the spatial magic strike, still failed to negate Yami's Dimensional Slash. Even Yuki was somewhat alarmed by the power of this dark magic attack.

If we absolutely have to analyze it...

This move failed due to spatial magic.

The spatial magic sources that Miki replicated, whether it was Finral's or the captain of the assassination squad's, tended to play a more auxiliary role.

If he had used Finral's brother, Langiers's destructive spatial magic, he might not have lost that clash.

"Now we should be able to talk about the deal, right?"

Suppressing the thoughts in his heart, Yuki looked up at the person opposite him, Yami, whose face had been expressionless, and a smile reappeared on her face as she spoke.

"Okay." Yomi said calmly, her tone seemingly unchanged.

"I can give you the magic stone and Witt's corpse, but I need you, Captain Yami, not to mention my presence when you return to the Clover Kingdom to hand over the mission."

"To be precise, Captain Yami could easily say that you killed Vito."

Momo spoke softly, explaining the transaction he wanted to make.

Yami looked at Yuki with some confusion. The contents of this deal were entirely in his favor. He had just been guessing what the other party wanted to exchange for from him or the Clover Kingdom.

"What's the meaning."

Yami frowned and spoke.

“I need to remain completely hidden in this matter, which means it’s better for Witt to die at your hands than at mine.”

"Therefore, it's best if you keep this to yourself and don't mention it to anyone. It won't do you any harm; you just need to keep it a secret for a while."

Mumu shrugged and spoke softly.

Upon hearing these words, Yami understood why Yuki had done this.

However, precisely because of this, he was also able to discern from Miki's words that Miki was completely distrustful of the Clover Kingdom.

Besides him, Asta and Noel also knew about Vittoria's death. The fact that Miki only knocked them unconscious instead of killing them was enough to show his goodwill.
