The Replica Magic Starting from Black Four

Chapter 124: The future prophecies of time magic may not be so accurate.

Early morning, in the town square.

This is a huge square near the capital, usually used for various festivals or for announcing important matters.

At this moment, the square was already full of people, and the atmosphere was quiet. Everyone's eyes were on the high platform.

Miki and Rebecca were also standing in the crowd.

Rebecca clasped her hands together in front of her chest in a prayerful gesture, a hint of worry on her face.

Yuki gazed calmly at the high platform in the distance, where eight captains of the magic knight orders stood. In the center stood a figure that drew everyone's attention.

She had short, golden hair and wore a long red robe. Below, on a pure white cloak, were inlaid gold chains and several badges of the highest honor in the Clover Kingdom.

Magic Emperor Julius!
Mumu's gaze turned to this figure, his eyes slightly deep.

This was the first time he had actually met Julius, but he never expected it to be on such a occasion.

The capital city has been attacked, and such a major event has occurred. As the Magic Emperor and the captains of the great magic knight orders that protect the capital, it is natural for him to provide an explanation and, at the same time, calm the public's panic.

This is also why people from various towns surrounding the capital have gathered here.

Momo glanced at the changing emotions of the crowd in the square and smiled gently.

The moment the captains of the Magic Knights and the Magic Emperor Julius appeared before everyone, the panic from the attack subsided considerably.

"That's great. Despite such a terrible incident, the Magic Knights and the Magic Emperor are both unharmed."

"I was a little worried at first."

"Those guys who attacked the capital must have launched their sneak attack while the members of the Magic Knights were not in the capital."

"........."

Quiet discussions could be heard from the surrounding crowd, most of whom looked relieved.

Rebecca also relaxed slightly: "The captains of the Magic Knights are all alright, as expected."

"Don't worry, these commanders won't be defeated so easily."

Upon hearing Rebecca's words, Miki smiled gently and calmly replied.

"Hey, there are only eight captains. Where is the captain of the 'Crimson Lion King'?"

Rebecca suddenly noticed something and whispered to Yumu.

"There must be something more important going on."

Momo glanced up and spoke softly and calmly.

The news of Fagraine's serious injury and coma has clearly been suppressed. After all, he is the captain of the kingdom's strongest mage, and if such news were to spread, it would be more likely to cause panic among the people.

"As the Magic Emperor, I bear an inescapable responsibility for the invasion of the royal capital."

"This incident was an attack by terrorist mages who oppose the kingdom."

"........."

A voice filled with apology and remorse was clearly transmitted to the ears of everyone in the square through magic.

simply put.

It was about defining the nature of the attack on the capital, which gave Mumu a feeling of hearing a report in his previous life.

It was simply to explain to the public that all the mages who attacked the capital had been defeated, and that the kingdom would repair and compensate for the damage. As for the reason why Fagraine did not appear, he simply said one thing and then changed the subject.

Mumu wasn't interested in what was being said. Some of it was true, some was false; it was all just to appease the public. He knew far more about it than anyone else.

What concerned him were a few other things.

Mumu's gaze first fell on William, the leader of the "Golden Dawn" guild. Seeing the other man standing there calmly, his eyes narrowed almost imperceptibly.

Without releasing the sealing magic, Richter would fight the three captains, and even if he managed to escape in the end, he would not be able to escape unscathed.

Miki suspected that William, who was standing there now, was likely a disguise created by Laia using imitation magic. Therefore, Yami's ability to sense ki was indeed more suited to combat. Furthermore, after this incident, Yami was probably already trying to contact him.

At last!
Julius, the Magic Emperor, is also the one that Mumu fears the most.

Momo's eyes flickered, and a smile suddenly appeared on his lips.

It seems that the future predictions made by time magic may not be so accurate after all.

Ten minutes later.

The Magic Emperor and the captain of the Magic Knights began to retreat in turn.

After cheering, the crowd in the square began to leave. With the Magic Emperor's explanation, the atmosphere became much more relaxed compared to the somewhat somber mood.

As Yumu walked through the crowd, he sensed the change in atmosphere and a serious expression appeared on his face.

He suddenly realized that the identity of the Magic Emperor had a far greater unifying force than he had imagined. Under a system with a very strict class division, the "Magic Emperor" was somewhat like a lubricant for the conflicts between nobles and commoners.

"The system that can separate the embodiment of prestige, the 'Magic Emperor,' from the royal power, without harming the interests of the royal family and nobles, while giving the people hope, is truly ingenious."

"The first Magic Emperor, Lumiel, was not only powerful, but also possessed considerable political acumen."

Yu Mu thought to himself silently.

He is now increasingly realizing that simply overthrowing the Clover Kingdom and eliminating class distinctions, besides being brutal, may also have some counterproductive effects.

As for the ideal world that the White Night Demon Eyes supposedly established, Miki felt it was increasingly pretentious and unrealistic.

He believed that in the history of the Clover Kingdom, there must have been people who wanted to change all of this, but it was clear that they had all failed so far.

What does the Magic Emperor represent?
What Miki sees as "hope" is actually still in the hands of the royal family and nobles.

If you really want those high and mighty nobles and royalty who treat commoners and the lower classes like pigs and filthy insects to be afraid, besides having great power, you also need to ignite a fire.

"Another fire called 'Hope'."

As Mumu watched the crowd leaving the square, he began to mutter to himself.

Think of this.

Mu shook his head again. What he pursued was freedom and the safety of his family and friends. He would rather let others do such troublesome things.

However, Miki doesn't mind having a sword of Damocles hanging over the heads of these royalty and nobles!

"What are you thinking?"

Rebecca followed beside Yuki, looking at him with curiosity as he pondered.

"It's nothing, I just feel a little regretful. With such a big thing happening, I thought the king would show up."

Mumu shook his head, a hint of disappointment on his face, and shrugged.

"Shh, I heard that the King and the Magic Emperor don't get along very well, and they rarely appear together."

Upon hearing what Mumu said, Rebecca quickly lowered her voice, glanced around rapidly, and whispered with a hint of gossip.

"So that's the case."

Momo looked surprised, then smiled and said:
"This kind of big event has nothing to do with us. Since the Magic Emperor said that there will be no more attacks, the tavern can open earlier."

Rebecca's face lit up with joy: "That would be wonderful."

"So, go back and prepare."

Mogi stretched and opened his mouth in a relaxed manner.

Rebecca saw the smiling face of the man, and a hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes, as if she had something on her mind.

Moki walked at the front, while Rebecca lagged behind, gazing at Moki's back with a hesitant expression.
