The Replica Magic Starting from Black Four

Chapter 164 Our Second Meeting: What If I Don't Go With You?

Chirp chirp~

rustle!

As Miki walked into the forest, he heard a constant stream of bird calls and the sounds of wild animals rustling through the leaves and bushes.

The release of a wisp of magical energy caused the surrounding wild beasts to flee in terror!
"Combined Magic - Gluttonous Wolf!"

After observing his surroundings, Mumu spoke calmly.

boom!
A surge of terrifying magic power emanated from the tree, instantly coalescing into a giant black wolf about eight meters tall!

A dangerous aura emanated from the giant black wolf, its scarlet pupils fixed on the forest. The chirping of birds and the buzzing of insects vanished instantly!
Moki waved his hand: "Go."

"Roar!"

The enormous gluttonous wolf let out a low growl, its scarlet eyes flashing, and suddenly leaped from behind the yam tree, splitting in mid-air into numerous ferocious black wolves that leaped in all directions of the forest.

This forest is vast, and with Vanjeel's concealment techniques, simple magical perception probably won't be very effective. These Gluttonous Wolves that have split off will actively seek out prey with high magical power.

After half an hour.

"found it."

A smile appeared on Mumu's face. He stomped his foot on the ground, and his figure suddenly soared into the air, disappearing from the spot in a flash.

At this moment, in the forest, near a stream.

A middle-aged man with red hair and a stubble beard, wearing only shorts, was holding a long sword and looking solemnly at the five black wolves that had surrounded him.

What's going on with these black wolves?

Vanjeel's gaze turned serious, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

At first, there was only one black wolf, but after he cut it into five pieces, it split into five small black wolves. In the process, they absorbed the magic power he released, and these black wolves grew rapidly at a visible speed.

"I don't recall having any beasts like this in this forest. Is it magic? It seems my intuition was right."

Vanjeel's expression darkened.

A few days ago, he went to the black market to buy items and unexpectedly saw the magical artifacts made by his wife, Domina. Vanjeel, who had never known Domina's whereabouts, was overjoyed.

A special investigation was conducted, and although no results were found, the appearance of the magical tool was enough to indicate that Domina was not in mortal danger.

Vanjee had noticed someone was following him before, but he didn't expect them to come knocking on his door so soon.

"Since this magic can split, then let's cut it into pieces and see how you split it!"

The magic power emanating from Vanjeel formed a white gust of wind that quickly condensed onto the blade of his sword.

"Wind Slayer Emperor - Gale!"

Vanjeel let out a roar, and a gust of wind erupted from his longsword, instantly enveloping the five black wolves in countless wind blades.

Vanjeel's figure disappeared from the spot and appeared behind the five black wolves, while sharp sword beams slashed down at the same time.

Boom!

The powerful attack shredded everything in the area to dust in a very short time.

Vanjeel also stopped attacking, but the next moment his pupils shrank as he saw that the five black wolves, although covered in wounds of varying sizes, had not been cut to pieces.

Furthermore, the injuries on these five black wolves were healing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, only their size had shrunk somewhat.

"how come?"

Vanjeel's face showed a look of shock.

The first attack could easily have cut a black wolf into five pieces, but this attack, which was even more intense than the last, only injured the five black wolves and did not achieve the desired effect.

Just then, a soft laugh sounded from behind.

"Of course. These five black wolves devoured your magic power, so they naturally have a certain resistance to it. Moreover, your five senses have been affected without you even realizing it."

A sudden sound!
Vanjeel's expression changed, and he quickly retreated from his spot, looking up in the direction from which the sound came.

There he saw a young man standing on a lush tree branch about seven or eight meters behind him, smiling at him.

when?
Completely unaware!

Vanjeel tensed up, recalling what the young man opposite him had mentioned about his weakened senses. He immediately raised his longsword and slashed at the back of his hand.

A wound appeared, and blood flowed down the back of his hand!

Seeing this, Vanjeel's expression became even more unpleasant, and his five senses were indeed diminished.

“It’s a curse.” Vanjeel looked at the young man again, gripping the hilt of his sword tightly as he spoke.

Momo leaped down from the branch, raised his hand and casually waved it, and the five seemingly ferocious giant wolves vanished into nothingness as magic.

"Don't worry, I'm not someone sent by the Diamond Kingdom to hunt you down."

As Mumu walked towards Vanjeel, he shrugged to indicate that he had no intention of attacking.

“I know that there are no mages with your level of skill in the assassination squad.”

Vanjeel remained vigilant, his gaze fixed on Mumu, sensing a strong sense of danger emanating from him.

Miki said helplessly, "I think you've misunderstood Lord Vanjeel. This is the second time we've met. The first time was in the forest near Haji Village on the border of the Clover Kingdom."

Haji Village?
Upon hearing the familiar name of the village, Vanjeel paused, then looked closely at Yumu, a strange sense of familiarity washing over him: "You're the one from back then..."

"Yes."

Seeing that Fan Jieer recognized him, Mimu spoke softly:

"When you passed through Haji Village, you taught Asta swordsmanship for a period of time."

“I met Lord Vanger once, but I’m not very interested in swordsmanship, so I didn’t learn from you like Asta did.”

A smile played on Mimu's face.

At the time, he was focused on replicating magic and had little interest in swordsmanship. In addition, Vanjeel was being hunted by the Diamond Kingdom's assassination squad, and Mumu didn't want to get too close to him to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Upon hearing what Miki said, Vanjeel's memories became clearer, and his tense body relaxed.

"You've changed a lot. How's Asta doing?"

Vanjeel glanced at Yumu with a somewhat complicated expression on his face and asked a question.

“That guy is doing great; he’s already joined the Magic Knights,” Miki said with a smile.

"Is that so? He has fulfilled his dream. With your current strength, you should have joined the Magic Knights too."

Vanjeel sighed, recalling the magic that had just rendered him helpless, and asked curiously.

Miki shook his head: "No, joining the Magic Knights is not the way to do what I need to do."

There was no need for Mumu to hide his identity from Fan Jieer, because he needed to take Fan Jieer to see Dominai. By then, Dominai would definitely tell Fan Jieer about his situation, so there was no need to hide it anymore.

Moreover, barring any unforeseen circumstances, Vanjeel shouldn't be able to stay in the Clover Kingdom for much longer.

Vanjeel paused, his gaze becoming more complicated once again.

Although he didn't know much about Asta's companion, he had heard about Miki from Asta. Now, comparing it with his memories, he found that the other party seemed to have undergone earth-shattering changes.

“You came all this way to see me, surely not just to catch up?” Vanjeel dusted himself off.

“I promised Miss Dominai I would help her find you, now I’ll take you there.”

Knowing that Vanjeel was still wary of him, Mimu didn't waste any words and simply made a gesture in the air.

A spatial passage appeared before my eyes.

"Spatial magic?"

Vanjeel's pupils contracted. He didn't know the magic that the other party had used to summon the black wolf, but he knew it definitely wasn't spatial magic.

"What if I don't go with you?"

Vanjeel gripped the hilt of his sword again and spoke with a sigh.

“Since I’ve already promised Miss Domina, I have no choice but to take you there by force.” Miki smiled and shrugged.

Suddenly, the air fell silent.

"Forget it, whatever your identity is, as long as you're not captured by the Diamond Kingdom."

After a brief silence, Vanjeel loosened his grip on the sword hilt and walked listlessly toward the spatial passage.

He considered running away, but judging from the other party's relaxed demeanor, they weren't afraid of him escaping at all.

Most importantly, the sudden appearance of magical artifacts made by Domina in the black market now seems like a trap to lure him out. Considering what the other party said, Domina is very likely with them!

Regardless, even if it's just for Dominai's sake, he has to go and find out.

The next moment, the two disappeared into the forest.
