The Replica Magic Starting from Black Four

Chapter 39 What kind of magic is this? That's not magic, it's science.

"Follow!"

"This lowly commoner dares to play such tricks on us, he's asking for death!"

Four mages followed closely behind Yuki, their faces sneering as they looked at the somewhat panicked figure ahead.

Having spent so much time in the capital, how could they not be familiar with the surrounding terrain?

"Don't chase after him immediately. Spread out and force him into a less crowded area."

The leader of the four mages flashed a ferocious expression on his face and quickly spoke to the other three.

As the four men spread out to surround him, Mu seemed even more panicked and reckless, gradually retreating towards the outskirts of the town as they had planned.

The surrounding area gradually became more secluded, and there were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the streets.

It didn't take long.

The four mages saw Yuki rush into a small alley, and upon seeing this, smiles appeared on their faces simultaneously.

They knew that alley was a dead end.

In the dark, dirty alley, the garbage carelessly discarded in the corners filled the air with a faint stench.

"Phew—, I'm blocked."

Mumu exhaled a heavy breath, looked at the solid wall blocking the end of the alley, and stopped running.

Even though he was in good physical condition, his breathing became somewhat rapid after running for a long time.

"You...you lowly commoner, you really, really can run!"

"Now, why aren't you running anymore? I want to see... see where you can run to!"

Several panting sounds came from behind.

Mumu turned around and looked behind him, where he saw that the four mages had blocked the alley entrance, and they were walking over with ferocious expressions on their faces.

"Kid, stop struggling. You've offended a nobleman, so running won't help. But if you kneel down before us four brothers now, we might be in a better mood and make you suffer less later."

The leader of the four mages stepped forward, looking down at Yuki with a condescending attitude, and spoke in a sinister voice.

Despite the four mages closing in, Miki showed no sign of panic.

"Yes, they really can't escape now."

"But how can you be sure that it's me or you who can't escape?"

Momo raised his arm and waved a piece of paper in his hand.

Hear this.

The four mages, who had been confident of victory, were taken aback and subconsciously looked at the paper in Yumu's hand.

Do not!
That was a map.

The leader of the four mages' expressions changed. He immediately realized that Mumu hadn't been forced to come here by them at all, but had come to this alley on his own initiative!
Whoosh!
The moment Yumu saw the four people staring blankly at the map, a glint flashed in his eyes. Without the slightest hesitation, the silver magic book soared into the air and hovered in front of Yumu.

"Wind Magic - Storm Tower!"

Yimu let out a sharp shout.

boom!
In the blink of an eye, half of the magic power within his body was drained away, and a gale instantly condensed, transforming into a massive tornado that shot into the sky from the alley.

The gale-force winds pulled all the items in the alley into the tornado, making it incredibly powerful!
Since this alley is a dead end, there's no need to worry about being attacked from behind. Mugi only needs to unleash this wind magic to block the way ahead.

"What's going on with this magic?"

A mage, seeing the powerful tornado blocking his path, looked on in astonishment and instinctively took a step back.

"I thought they had some tricks up their sleeves."

The eldest of the four mages, however, revealed a cold smile.

When I first saw the map in the other party's hand, I was indeed a little surprised and thought that the other party had some kind of backup plan. But it turned out to be this.

The lower classes are just the lower classes!

The tornado created by this wind magic is indeed powerful, but to think that you can defeat them with just this one spell is simply a pipe dream.

"Do it!"

The eldest of the four mages waved his arm, and the other three mages reacted immediately, casting their own spells to attack the tornado in front of them.

A series of magical attacks slowed the tornado's advance.

Upon seeing this, the four mages breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.

Seeing this, Miki remained unconcerned and quickly untied the package she was carrying on her back.

These four mages were indeed quite strong, at least stronger than the young nobles who took the entrance test. You should know that Yuno's noble opponent couldn't even stop them before being swept into the tornado.

Such strength is not weak for most commoner mages.

However, even the strongest ones have limited strength.

None of these four people had the ability to break the magic.

Miki marveled at the power of Yuno's magic, then suddenly flung the package in his hand into the tornado ahead.

In an instant.

The package was torn to shreds, and the bottled lamp oil inside spilled out and flowed into the tornado, adding a touch of black to the swirling gale.

"This is my real backup plan!"

Momo smirked, took out the tinderbox he had bought while wandering around all day, lit it, and then casually tossed it forward.

Because of the tornado's obstruction, the four people couldn't see the movement of the tree behind them at all; they only saw the tornado tremble, followed by a loud "boom".

The raging tornado instantly transformed into a towering pillar of fire, with the intense heat and heatwave rapidly spreading outwards!
Before the four mages could even react, they felt an immense suction force erupt from within the tornado. This terrifying attraction far surpassed the effects of the tornado itself.

The four screamed in terror and were helplessly sucked into the fire tornado.

A series of piercing screams echoed from within the fire tornado!

Snapped!
Momoki waited a moment, then snapped his fingers.

boom!boom!boom!boom!
The burning fire tornado dissipated in an instant, and four charred figures fell from mid-air, crashing heavily onto the ground of the alley.

One of the figures crashed down right in front of Yu Mu; this figure was none other than the leader of the four.

A faint aroma of meat wafted into the air.

I can smell this aroma.

A slight pallor appeared on Mumu's face, but she quickly suppressed the discomfort that was rising within her.

mercy?

That belongs to the strong; the weak have no right to pity it.

At least, Mumu doesn't consider himself a strong person right now.

"you you……"

The charred wrist trembled as it lifted from the ground, seemingly struggling yet unwilling, and a weak voice rang out:
"That, that is... what... magic..."

Yumu calmly gazed at the figure on the ground.

"Just like water flows downhill, the temperature of a flame will cause changes in airflow. That's not magic, it's science."

Momoki spoke very patiently, and as soon as he finished speaking, he raised his foot and kicked the other person in the neck.

The charred arm fell back to the ground.

Yumu glanced at the other three and found that none of their magic books had disappeared, so they should still be alive. He felt relieved.

There's no reason not to devour a grimoire that's offered up on your doorstep.

He didn't choose this dead-end alley randomly.

It's not difficult to turn a tornado into a pillar of fire, but to produce the same kind of power as before, you need the right terrain.

The narrow space of the alley allows the extremely high temperature generated by the flames and the rotational force carried by the tornado itself to quickly cause changes in airflow.

Hot air rises, bringing with it cold air.

The side with the pine tree is a dead end, so although the temperature changes, it won't have much of an impact.

The four mages were positioned at the entrance of the alley, so the cold air would naturally rush into the alley quickly, and combined with the confined space, this would create immense pressure.

This is why the four of them were sucked directly into the tornado before they even had a chance to react.

Thank you for nine years of compulsory education!

The thought flashed through Yu Mu's mind. He looked up at the alley entrance, knowing that this matter was not completely over yet.
