The Replica Magic Starting from Black Four

Chapter 198 A spare key to open the gates of the underworld? Yami's suspicions!
Magic Emperor Julius nodded slightly when he heard what Yami said.

"Thank you, Yomi."

"No matter what, becoming the Magic Emperor means protecting this country."

Julius continued to gaze out the window, speaking in a gentle voice.

Yami understood that this was the Magic Emperor's intention to have him monitor Yuki. He raised his right hand, extended three fingers, and gently placed them on his chest before turning and leaving the room.

Click!

With the sound of the door closing again,
Standing at the window, the Magic Emperor Julius suddenly revealed a strange smile on his face, his expression showing amusement.

"People who will not appear in future observations at all."

"Hehe, this seems different from the situation with anti-magic. An interesting change."

The Magic Emperor let out a low, eerie laugh, then muttered to himself thoughtfully:
"Did the future not appear? Did it perish in the ensuing turmoil?"

“Replicating magic…maybe it can also serve as a backup key to open the gates of the underworld.”

…………

Black Bulls headquarters.

After leaving the Royal Realm where the Magic Emperor resided, Miki returned to the tavern. After comforting Rebecca and the other two, he used spatial magic with Mariara and Neg to head directly to the Black Bulls.

Now that their identity has been revealed, there is no need to hide it anymore.

and.

Mugi could also guess that the Magic Emperor's decision to have the Black Bulls assist in rebuilding Lyon was itself a form of surveillance.

As a spatial passage appeared, the three of them found themselves in front of a strangely shaped, dark, and somewhat dilapidated ancient castle.

Momo looked around with interest at the Black Bulls' encampment. Although he had checked this place through communication magic before, this was the first time he had observed it so directly.

A mobile and freely assembleable castle would be the perfect base for most people.

Looking at the tightly closed gate ahead.

Mumu stepped forward, but before he could get close, the black door opened directly.

Magna and Lak appeared first at the doorway, one with flames wrapped around his fist and the other with lightning crackling around his body, their eyes excitedly looking at the three outside the door.

To be precise, it is *Pterocarya stenoptera*.

"I told you he was a formidable guy; he actually came to me willingly."

Electricity crackled constantly above Lark's head, causing his golden hair to stand on end, and his eyes were filled with a manic excitement.

"As expected of Asta's best friend, a comrade from the same village, how could he be weak!"

"Don't expect us to thank you for the underwater temple incident. Although you defeated Vittor, we didn't lose!"

Magna raised his fist and slammed it into his chest, shouting loudly.

Seeing Magna and Lak, both brimming with fighting spirit, Mogi was momentarily stunned.

"Don't tell me this is how the Black Bulls welcome guests."

Yumu spoke with a hint of helplessness.

"That's right!"

"That's right!"

Magna and Lak roared in unison and charged toward Mumu almost simultaneously.

however!
Before the two could reach Mumu, Mariara and Nege had already rushed to meet them.

"Neither of you are worthy to lay a hand on Lord Yumu!"

Mariala's voice was icy as she swiftly engaged Lark and repelled him.

“That’s right!” Nege also collided with Magna.

Suddenly, louder and louder booming sounds came from the open space outside the castle.

Seeing the people fighting, Miki shook his head slightly and calmly walked into the castle.

Enter the main hall inside the castle.

They were met with the stares of the other Black Bulls members.

"What a unique way to welcome us."

Under the watchful eyes of many, Miki smiled and looked at Yomi, who was sitting lazily on the sofa in the center.

"It's certainly gotten a bit more lively." Upon hearing this, Ye Jian showed no embarrassment but instead agreed wholeheartedly.

"Mountain!"

Just then, a loud roar rang out.

Asta rushed over excitedly and hugged Yuki tightly, saying happily, "Thank goodness, you're alright."

"not worried."

Momo smiled and patted Asta's firm shoulder: "The Demon Queen's healing magic is really amazing. Not only did it cure your curse, but it also greatly improved your physical fitness."

"That's right, I feel stronger than before."

Asta immediately raised his hands excitedly, revealing his muscular arms.

"Let's have a fight, Mochiki!"

Asta spoke with a face full of anticipation.

A muffled "bang!"

Noelle, who had walked over from the side, raised her fist and punched Asta on the head.

"What are you doing!" Asta covered his head, looking at Noelle with a blank expression.

"Idiot, stop thinking about such crude things as fighting."

Noelle let out a soft hum, then turned to look at Mumu in front of her, her cheeks slightly flushed: "Um, Noelle-nii-san..."

Upon hearing this, Mumu said with some understanding, "Sorry, Noelle, I just couldn't stop myself in that kind of fight."

"I did not mean that."

"Brother Norser has always been arrogant. In the previous battle... Anyway, Brother Norser will definitely come to fight you again. You should be careful."

Noelle tried to sound calm as she whispered a reminder.

"Thank you, I will be careful."

A look of realization flashed across Yu Mu's face, and he nodded.

"Oh my, little Noelle can be shy sometimes."

Wearing a red bikini, Banatha held a half-empty bottle of wine in her right hand, raised her slender, snow-white left arm, put it on Noelle's shoulder, and said with a coquettish smile.

“That’s not true!” Noel blurted out as if on reflex.

Seeing Noelle's excited reaction, Banassa simply smiled, looked up at the tree in front of her, shook the wine bottle in her right hand, and said seriously, "Thanks for the Witch's Forest matter."

“You went to the Witch Forest because of Asta’s arm, and I am partly responsible for that dangerous situation.”

Mumu shook his head in response to Banasa's gratitude and spoke softly.

If anyone should express gratitude, it should be Banatha who awakened the magic of destiny. Without the magic of destiny, Mumu would not have been able to face the Magic Emperor so calmly.

"So that letter was from you!" Noelle realized at that moment.

Momo smiled gently.

Asta looked at the group with some confusion: "What letter?" "Hehe."

Banatha couldn't help but laugh first.

"Everyone's having so much fun, shall we have a banquet?" Chami asked, waving his arm enthusiastically as he held a large piece of meat in his hand.

"Banquet...friends...banquet..."

Gordon sat in a corner, muttering to himself.

Gray, a loli with sky-blue hair and a cowlick, sat shyly in a remote spot, occasionally looking up at the people in the hall before quickly lowering her head again.

And another place.

Sitting on the sofa not far from Ye Jian, holding a mirror in his hand, Go Xiu was completely immersed in his own world.

Hearing the roar of battle outside the castle, and looking at the group members surrounding Miki in the hall, Yami's eyes twitched violently.

Does nobody care about him being the regimental commander?

boom!
"You guys, that's enough!"

Yami raised his hand and punched the table in front of him, making a loud noise. The table shattered on the spot, and even a large crater appeared in the ground.

In an instant!
The entire hall fell silent instantly.

"Although the Magic Emperor has determined that what the Night Eye did has nothing to do with you, it does not mean that you are completely cleared of suspicion."

Yami, a cigarette dangling from his lips, stood up from the sofa.

This statement serves both as a reminder to the Black Bulls and as a subtle warning.

do not know why!
Yami felt a strange sense of coincidence in the series of events. Looking at the other person's expression, which remained calm throughout, he strongly suspected that the other person was hiding other motives.

It's not that he's overly cautious!
But the jujube tree in front of me was truly extraordinary.

Six months ago, the other party was just a weak nobody who hadn't even passed the entrance test for the Magic Knights.

In the past six months, he not only joined a terrifying organization like the White Night Eye Demon, but also grew from a weak mage to a level of strength comparable to the captain!

If that's all there is to it, it's fine; it just means the other person's magic is special and their talent is exceptional.

but!

Not only did the other party quickly gather most of the intelligence information about the White Night Demon Eye, but they also recruited two powerful subordinates.

In addition, despite his identity being exposed, Miki managed to leave the White Night Demon Eye unscathed, completely absolving himself of any guilt, and even gaining the approval of Boss Julius.

The more Yami thought about it, the less she could understand Miki. Could this really be something a commoner from a remote area of ​​Hui could do?

"Commander Yami..."

Upon hearing what Yami said, Asta immediately spoke up.

"The only way to completely clear our names is when the White Night Demon Eye is destroyed." Yomi interrupted Asta, then stared at Yuki and continued:
"Now, let's talk about the matter in Lyon. You said you would take full responsibility, and it would be best if you didn't just say it."

Momo's expression turned serious: "That's exactly why I've come."

at this time.

The intense roaring outside also stopped.

Whoosh!Whoosh!
With two whooshing sounds, Magna and Lak, frozen solid, were thrown back into the hall, the ice blocks hitting the ground with two piercing thuds.

Mariella and Neg walked in from outside, seemingly unharmed, and stood calmly behind Mugi.

"They defeated Magna and Lak so quickly! Amazing!"

Asta's face first showed a look of astonishment, then he quickly drew the Demon Slayer Sword and removed the ice from the two of them.

When Yami saw this, his face darkened.

After a while.

Miki, along with Mariara and Neg, left the Black Bulls' camp again.

Nighttime, in a tavern.

The four people sat at a dining table.

"The tavern probably won't have much business for a while," Miki said with a light laugh as she looked at Rebecca.

Currently, only the tavern remains intact within the entire central area.

Given the commotion earlier, any resident of Lyon who wasn't a fool would realize that something was wrong with the people in the tavern.

"These are just minor matters."

Why won't you let me help?

Rebecca was clearly no longer concerned about the tavern issue, and instead asked with a puzzled expression.

"Because it's unnecessary. You always have to have a backup plan when doing things."

"At the very least, we cannot reveal all our strength at once."

Yumu spoke softly.

To prevent unnecessary trouble, Mumu didn't let Rebecca do it.

After all, Rebecca is different from Mariala and Negue. Rebecca has lived in Lyon for so long that she can easily find all kinds of information.

Rebecca was just an ordinary person before, but now she suddenly possesses such great strength, it's hard not to suspect her.

Although this is not a big deal, it is extremely important for Yuki to reduce unnecessary trouble right now.

"I understand." Rebecca's gaze softened, and she nodded heavily.

"Next, Rebecca will continue to keep the tavern running."

"The reconstruction of Lyon will be overseen by Mariella and Neg. In addition, I will give you a list of goods to purchase secretly during the construction of the houses."

Yumu spoke softly, assigning tasks to everyone.

The magic circle drawn for the "Godhood Ritual" did not appear out of thin air; it required a large amount of materials. Taking advantage of the construction of Lyon Town, the materials were secretly gathered.

what is interesting is.

Neither the Magic Emperor nor Yami inquired about money. Perhaps in their eyes, money was a trivial matter compared to the White Night Demon Eye and other such things.

Without being asked, Mu naturally wouldn't explain, because with the gold and silver treasures he obtained from the Demon Palace that filled most of the space, the money he spent on building Lyon Town was really not much.

It doesn't even compare to the research funding that Miki gave to Domina.

"clear."

"clear."

Mariella and Nege spoke in unison.

In the following days, with the ample financial support from Miki, the reconstruction of Lyon began immediately.

Apart from the first day when Yami personally came to check it out, the rest of the time was basically supervised by members of the Black Bulls.

Of course, some troubles arose during this process. For example, the residents of Lyon Town clearly showed hostility towards the people in the tavern.

Facing this circumstances.

Miki directly adopted the simplest and most direct approach: with a large sum of money paid in compensation, the hostility indeed disappeared.

This is, after all, a world with magic. In just about a week, the destroyed town of Lyon has been largely restored.

During this period, neither the Clover Kingdom nor the White Night Eyes made any moves.

In this eerily calm atmosphere, the annual "Star Fruit Festival" has officially begun!
