#1971 - You will regret it, I am the Magic Emperor!

Who was wrong?

Perhaps, weakness, in this world with extraordinary power, is also a kind of wrong.

If one's thoughts far surpass most people, then it will be regarded as a sin, or even evil.

Of course, Conrad did go to extremes afterward.

He even wanted to eliminate everyone, then select self-aware, capable, and valuable souls to revive, and create a so-called new world with him.

But then again, if he hadn't gone to extremes and only targeted the royal and noble classes.

Then Asta, Yuno, and the others would truly have no justice to speak of.

So Conrad, as the villain, had to become extreme to cover up everything before.

But when Conrad opened his eyes in the middle of the arena.

He was momentarily dazed by the sight of Julius standing on the platform below.

Not anger, not resentment, but confusion.

He seemed to see Julius as a boy, the Julius who was willing to be his friend.

What exactly is going on? Am I trapped in a memory illusion?

Until the other party called out his name.

"Conrad!"

"What the hell are you doing?!" Conrad roared as he flew in front of Julius.

Unsealing himself for no reason, and then inexplicably turning into this appearance.

And how is the 'Magic Emperor Sword' in his hands?

"Calm down first, let me explain everything, we're in big trouble now."

Julius, who was unknowingly being used as a spokesperson by Lucius again.

Began to娓娓道来 the events of the past few years.

He knew that Conrad was a very sensitive and suspicious person.

So, to appease him, he had to explain in as much detail as possible.

Conrad's emotions gradually calmed down as he listened to Julius's words.

At the same time, he learned about the 'Eye of the Midnight Sun', 'Elf Reincarnation', 'Spade Kingdom Devil', and the latest 'World Government Invasion' and other major events.

He was, after all, someone who had been the Magic Emperor.

And he was in office for much longer than Julius, who was only there for twelve years.

Even this 'Triumph Arena' under his feet was built under his leadership.

So, he could easily empathize with and analyze these things from the perspective of the Magic Emperor.

The whole process wasn't short, but it wasn't long either, taking about thirty minutes.

After listening, Conrad sneered: "Hmph, so you want me to join the past Magic Emperors to fight against the World Government's forces?"

"No, I hope you can lead them, give the other side enough pressure, and strive for both sides to sit at the negotiating table and sign an equal agreement!"

Thirteen-year-old Julius shook his head, sincerely raising the 'Emperor Sword' in his hand and said:

"You can see my current situation, I am simply unable to do these things, so I want to hand it over to you."

Conrad gritted his teeth as he looked at the 'Emperor Sword' handed in front of him:

"Do you think I will protect those dirty and rotten royal families and nobles?"

"No."

The world that Lovellia existed in…

Julius's words were truly a fatal blow, completely hitting the softest place in his heart.

"If there really is an underworld, then Lovellia might be watching you at this moment."

"She is looking forward to you holding this 'Emperor Sword' and protecting this world that she loved so much!"

Julius pressed his advantage, using words to tear open Conrad's inner wounds.

He knew this was cruel, but to protect this world, it had to be done.

The current himself can only do these persuasion efforts.

"I once said that your mouth is more terrifying than your time magic!"

Conrad suppressed his anger while reaching out to take the 'Magic Emperor Sword'.

"That's because you actually know very well that what I said is correct."

Julius showed a gentle smile on his face: "Then I'll leave this world to you, the twenty-seventh Magic Emperor, Conrad Leto!"

"Heh, don't think it's over just like that." Conrad responded with a sneer:

"Although you have returned to thirteen years old, your time magic is still there."

"If you really want to contribute, give me your time magic and teach me how to use them well."

"You shouldn't refuse, right?"

As he spoke, a golden clover key appeared out of thin air between Conrad's right-hand fingers.

"What?"

Julius was stunned, he didn't expect Conrad to make such a request.

The other party's key magic initially could only open locked doors, boxes, and the like.

Later, as the other party's strength increased, the types of magic on the magic book continued to increase, and the effects became more and more terrifying.

Now Conrad's key magic can not only open any seal or barrier.

It can also take away the other party's magic from the source by inserting the key into the magic book.

He can even use the stolen magic with greater power than the original owner by relying on his own tyrannical strength.

Of course, the last point does not hold true for Julius here.

But Conrad should be able to use most of the abilities of time magic quite well.

Not to mention he wants himself to personally teach the other party…

But in this way, Julius will completely lose time magic.

But he has to admit that this does help Conrad fight against the World Government.

Just when Julius was planning to agree for the sake of the overall situation.

Lucius switched personalities again without realizing it, but kept his current appearance.

"Conrad, I know how dangerous your thoughts are, so I won't give you time magic."

"Because I need to rely on it to restore my strength, and I also need to consider controlling you with it after the war."

Julius warned coldly with a blank expression.

"Oh?"

Conrad raised his eyebrows in surprise.

He vaguely felt that this answer didn't sound like the Julius he knew.

But considering that twelve years have passed, he could understand that the other party had matured a lot in terms of mind.

"Then I can completely kill you now, and then lead the past Magic Emperors to fight against the World Government!"

Conrad suddenly waved the 'Magic Emperor Sword', the blade pointing at Julius's face.

Who knew that the latter's eyes were unwavering, and he said calmly:

"The one standing here is indeed me twelve years later, but you are still you twelve years ago."

A strange sentence.

But it was also the reason why Conrad wouldn't kill him, just like he didn't kill Conrad twelve years ago.

Both sides actually regarded each other as close friends in their hearts, but they just didn't agree with each other's ideas.

However, this is Lucius imitating Julius's tone.

"Alright, alright, I will make you regret letting me out, and even more regret giving me the 'Emperor Sword'!"

Conrad turned around angrily and cursed.

"No matter what, I am the twenty-eighth Magic Emperor, since I can defeat you once, I can defeat you a second time."

Julius put his hands behind his back and looked at the other party's back.

Saying meaningful words with that childish face.

"Hahaha, then you really underestimate me, you were able to defeat me back then just because I didn't have time to activate this 'Triumph Arena'!"

Conrad leaped out of the stands, floated in mid-air, and turned to meet Julius's gaze.

"I just didn't expect it to be used to fight against the so-called World Government in the end…"
