The Replica Magic Starting from Black Four

Chapter 212 Yami's Reminder and Warning: Meleo Leona's Purpose!
Black, lightning-shaped anti-magic energy wrapped around half of Asta's body. Even without magical skin, the high-temperature magic in the air was dispelled by the anti-magic energy.

Even Meleo Leona was somewhat surprised by this power, which was completely different from normal magic.

but.

It was merely astonishment.

Asta's flight speed was indeed fast, but in Mereoleona's eyes, it was still too slow.

Whoosh!
Asta, transformed into a black lightning bolt, rushed towards Meleo Leona the instant she reached him, but Meleo Leona had already raised her fist and slammed it directly into Asta's face.

"Oh!!"

Asta let out a scream and was blasted onto a nearby mountain wall. The previously boiling and uncontrollable anti-magic power now completely stabilized.

"That punch was quite powerful."

As for Asta, whose entire body was imprinted directly on the mountain wall, his eyes twitched slightly.

“This power…” Yuno had already arrived beside Yumu, her eyes flickering with a hint of surprise.

"Don't underestimate this power. Even I would find it very troublesome to deal with. If you are careless, you might lose to Asta."

Yuki glanced at Yuno and smiled as she offered a reminder.

"lose?"

"If Asta is too weak, that's what's really bothering me."

Yuno's surprised expression faded, and she adopted a cool demeanor, though a hint of happiness lingered on her face.

He was clearly pleased that Asta had acquired this power.

It's disappointing if your competitors are too weak.

About half an hour later.

Everyone had reached the summit, panting heavily. Even Mariella and Nege were covered in sweat and looked somewhat disheveled.

"We've finally arrived, you idiots!"

Mereoleona shouted at the crowd in front of her without any politeness.

Among the group that came to the Demon Zone, besides the two captains, there was also the strong and powerful Yuki, who was no weaker than the captains, as well as the newcomers Yuno and Asta.

The members of "The Crimson Lion King" performed at a level that was even inferior to the two dual-magic users under Miki's command.

With this level of skill, no wonder they didn't even make it into the top three in the celebration rankings!

Mereoleona's expression darkened as she thought of Fagraine, who was lying in a hospital bed, still unconscious.

An invisible pressure instantly filled the air, leaving the Crimson Lion King's men too frightened to utter a sound.

But soon.

Meleo Leona quickly composed herself, knowing that the group, who had just reached the summit, could no longer undergo special training, no matter how dissatisfied she was.

"This Yutim volcano stops erupting completely at night, so why can't we climb it before it stops!"

"In your pathetic state, the Knights have no chance of regaining first place at the next celebration. Those who fail to reach the summit before sunset, come back another day!"

Merleona roared again.

"Yes!"

"...!"

"Yes!!"

The Crimson Lion King's crew roared in unison.

Looking at the passionate scene before him, Yumu remained calm.

Among the nine great magic knight orders, the Crimson Lion King is probably the one that adheres most strictly to the principles of "knighthood" and also has the best atmosphere.

If you are of noble birth, joining the "Crimson Lion King" Magic Knights is the best option, but if you are of commoner or even lower birth, then don't even think about it.

"Very good, then everyone is permitted to soak in the hot springs!"

Merleona nodded in satisfaction, then turned and pointed to a huge crater in the center of the mountaintop not far away.

Seemingly sensing the doubts of the crowd, a louder and louder roar slowly rose from the pit.

next moment!
As a spray of water shot up from the pit, the huge pit was filled with steaming hot spring water in no time.

"The nourishing and strengthening effects of this hot spring are second to none even in the whole country. But usually no one comes here, and it's always been booked out, making it a secret within a secret."

Despite the surprised looks on everyone's faces, Merleona remained remarkably calm.

After a while.

An earthen wall rises from beneath the hot spring, dividing it in two, and the men and women among the group separate and head to different sides of the hot spring.

"Plop" sound.

Mumu jumped into the hot spring. The moderate water temperature, combined with its unique nourishing effect, made him feel warm and comfortable all over.

Also.

The rolling bubbles from below the hot spring seem to give those entering the spring a full-body massage, and comfortable groans of varying sizes echo continuously from the hot spring.

After climbing the volcano, feeling exhausted and drenched in sweat, soaking in a hot spring was the ultimate pleasure.

"Truly a top-notch secret realm." Momo leaned against the edge of the hot spring, his eyes closed, and uttered a heartfelt exclamation.

Wow~

The sound of flowing water could be heard.

Sensing someone approaching, Yuki reopened her eyes and saw Yomi standing close by, a cigarette dangling from her mouth.

"I'd like to meet you at night."

Momoki spoke politely.

"Soaking in this hot spring makes me feel a little drowsy, it's quite comfortable." Yami raised her arm from the hot spring and leaned on the rock behind her, looking languid.

Mogi nodded: "Who would have thought that a hot spring with special effects would exist in the area of ​​powerful demons?"

Yami didn't speak, but tilted his head slightly, took a drag of his cigarette, and exhaled. The smoke and mist mingled and drifted upwards.

"Now that I think about it, I understand why you refused when we invited you to join the Magic Knights last time."

"Besides the fact that you had already joined the White Night Demon Eye at that time, it was also because of magic. If you had been chosen to join the Magic Knights back then, you might not have the strength you have now."

Yomi spoke slowly and deliberately, half-closing her eyes as she lazily gazed at the steaming hot spring.

Momo's eyes flickered.

Are they testing his magic?

No, that's too blunt.

"Perhaps." Mimu smiled faintly, speaking ambiguously, "After all, it hasn't happened yet, so who can say for sure?"

Faced with this answer from Miki.

Yami didn't seem to care much, and went on to say very directly, "Many people in the Magic Knights think you are a threat."

"what?"

Mumu was initially surprised, then shrugged helplessly: "These nobles are really petty."

"Hahaha!"

Yami let out a hearty laugh, raised his strong arm and patted Yuki's shoulder heavily. "I think so too."

"Also, I have something to tell you."

"After you left the festival, the king granted a very interesting decree: to form the Royal Knights."

Hear this.

Mogi paused for a moment, but didn't seem too surprised: "Is it specifically used to defeat the Byakugan Mystic Eyes?"

“That’s right.” Yomi withdrew her hand from Miki’s shoulder.

"Do you need me to participate?"

Yumu turned her head to look at Yumu, somewhat surprised.

“Of course…no need.” Yami paused deliberately, looking at the surprised expression on Yuki’s face, before continuing.

Mogi's expression became even more helpless, but he still spoke softly, expressing his attitude: "I am ready to help with the matter of defeating the White Night Demon Eye at any time."

Yomi nodded in satisfaction.

"As long as we eliminate the White Night Demon Eye, what happened before will not be a big deal."

"So never do anything unnecessary."

As Yami finished speaking, his expression suddenly turned serious, and he began to speak earnestly.

"Of course, Lord Yomi."

Mumu also raised his head, a peaceful smile on his face.

"Oh! Commander Yomi, what are you and Yuki talking about, training or muscle building?"

Asta noticed the commotion and swam over from the center, excitedly asking questions.

"Stop bothering me!"

"Is all you have in your head muscles?"

Yami grabbed Asta's head and pulled him out of the hot spring. "But there is a way to train."

"what? What!"

Asta spoke, his eyes shining.

"Peeping into the women's bathhouse!"

Yami put on a serious expression and spoke righteously.

Miki's eye twitched slightly, but she continued to lean against the rock by the fountain, enjoying the hot spring.

What Yami said to him just now was not only a reminder, but also a warning.

Royal Knights?

The operation to eradicate the White Night Demon Eye is finally about to begin, and we need to hurry up and prepare.

Yu Mu thought to himself.

Inside the hot spring.

At Yami's suggestion, the group quickly descended into a state of chaos and excitement, but it was ultimately disrupted by Asta.

This made Mumu feel a little regretful.

However, even if this group manages to climb the towering rock separating the hot springs, they will be met with Mereoleona's fists.

After soaking in the hot spring.

Under the magical influence of the space mages of the "Crimson Lion King" knights, the group began to leave the powerful magic zone and return to the royal capital.

It only took a moment.

The once bustling summit of Yutim Volcano has fallen silent once more.

Only one figure remained atop the volcano, refusing to leave.

Merleona stood calmly on the cliff, her arms crossed over her chest, her red-rimmed eyes gazing serenely at the lava flowing beneath the volcano.

For a while.

The sounds of lava flowing and burning the ground were audible, along with the occasional hissing of steam from the crater and the roars of magical creatures living in this powerful magical zone.

They started to become active again.

Mereoleona remained standing still, seemingly waiting quietly for something.

And the waiting time wasn't long.

A spatial passage reappeared on the mountaintop, and Yu Mu walked out of it.

Mereoleona smiled slightly and turned to look at the reappearing Mumu: "I thought I would have to come to your tavern again."

"Forget it."

"My tavern cannot withstand several more ravages from Lady Mereoleona."

Momo waved his hand, as if to say, "Please don't do that."

"Enough with the nonsense. Is my brother Fagraine's grimoire in the hands of the White Night Eye?" Meleo Leona loosened her arms from her chest and spoke coldly.

So that's what it was all about?

To be honest, this is indeed the only thing that matters to Meleo Leona right now.

The thought flashed through Yumu's mind, but he nodded without changing his expression: "It was indeed in the hands of the White Night Demon Eye before."

"Oh? And now?"

Mereoleona's eyes widened slightly, and her crimson hair flew up under the influence of her flame-like magical skin.

She had already grasped the meaning behind Yumu's words.

Momoki raised his palm and made a grabbing motion towards the void in front of him. The air that his fingers touched immediately rippled, and his palm reached into the alternate dimension and took out a red magic book.

"This is Lord Fagraine's grimoire, and it is currently in my possession."

Momoki spoke calmly.

Mereoleona looked intently at the red grimoire in Mumu's hand, then smiled.

"very good!"

"What do you want to do?"

Mereoleona tilted her head slightly, a cold smile playing on her lips.

Since his brother's grimoire is in Yuki's hands, and the other party has not handed it over voluntarily, then there must be some purpose behind it.

This is not something that is difficult to guess.

"I just have a question I'd like to ask Lady Mereoleona..."

Mogi spoke in a relaxed tone, but he only got halfway through his sentence.

Meleo Leona vanished into thin air and reappeared in front of Yuki in the blink of an eye. Her fist, wreathed in flames, struck Yuki in the chest with tremendous force.

Fire Magic - Scorching Wrist!

boom!
A powerful impact exploded in Yuki's chest.

With a loud thud, Mumu was instantly transformed into a meteor and blasted off the mountaintop, crashing directly into the scorching lava below.

A series of huge waves of lava erupted!
The magma, with a temperature of over a thousand degrees, hissed and emitted white smoke the moment the log entered.

Whoosh!
Mereoleona's figure also leaped down from the mountaintop. Her crimson figure was already standing on the rocky ground outside the flowing lava in just a few breaths.

"You made a mistake."

“I’ve always hated troublesome things, so if I want something, I’ll just grab it myself.”

Mereoleona looked at the bubbling lava and spoke in a domineering tone.

Bang!
Suddenly!
A fiery red figure, accompanied by a large amount of scalding magma radiating temperatures of over a thousand degrees, burst forth from the magma pool.

In an instant!
Mogi had already arrived beside Meleo Leona, and the large amount of flying lava he brought with him caused Meleo Leona to subconsciously squint her eyes slightly.

boom!
Muki also raised his fist, the bulging muscles on his arm exuding a violent and savage aura, and struck Meleo Leona in the chest.

Boom!

Merleona's face showed surprise. She leaned backward and flew sideways, crashing into another pool of lava with a roar.

Mogi stood still and swayed his body, flicking the scalding lava still clinging to his body onto the ground, making a sizzling sound.

"It seems I was indeed mistaken."

Miki was enveloped in a layer of crimson magic. He spoke in a calm tone, and the fire lizard on Miki's left shoulder flicked its tail.

I am a fire spirit user!

How could the temperature of magma possibly harm him?
