Magi Chapter 178: The Goal of Al Thamen

Comments:
This was definitely a good chapter and even though there was a lot of speaking present I wasn't too bothered about it since it was pretty important stuff regarding the history of the series.

I always though that it was in fact this worlds history where Solomon and all the Djinns lived with him, but to everyones surprise that place turned out to be another world altogether. This really makes me wonder how many years ago the events of Solomon making the new world and the war in Alma Toran happened since people don't seem to recall any of that who live in the present timeline. Lady Scheherazade said that she is almost three hundred years old, so it must have been very long time ago.


I believe that the Al Thamen is going to be more present in the series from now on. We have gotten only glimpses of the organization and their motives, but this chapter cleared pretty much of it. Their aim is of course to create as much black rukh as possible by bringing as much despair in the world as they can to form the "Dark spot" which sounds like an ultimate dark summoning or something like that. So all the countries which are about to go to war are actually helping Al Thamen in their mission and I think it's safe to assume that most of it is probably their doing.

So the chapter ended with the text "what will Mogamett do next", this could imply that Mogamett, watching all those dead magician could launch a counterattack against Reim. That would be a probable scenario in my opinion, but I think that we will be shown someone from Al Thamen subtly encouraging him to do it if it happens.

Recap of Magi Chapter 178: The Dark Spot

-Aladdin is afraid that Chancellor (Mogamett I presume) is going to realize Al-Thamen's wish

-If the Chancellor is hiding great quantity of black Rukh somewhere, it would be dreadful.

-Aladdin mentions of "Scene of Tragedy", which Lady Scheherazade recognizes. He starts telling about a story from another world which doesn't have a connection with the world they are living in.

-He tells that there were a lot of people living there and everything was put to an end because of a single war. The ones who caused the war was Al Thamen.

-So, The great magician, who was called King Solomon created the world where Aladdin and others live and guides most of the survivors there. The other world was called "Alma Toran".

-.Al Thamen wants to erase this new world where they live currently by turning the world into chaos with the help of the "Dark spot". Dark spot is a hole which is created by a great quantity of magoi and black rukh from which the incarnation of evil will eat the white ruk of the world.

-Aladdin has known all of this since Balbadd, since the history of Alma Toran's was shown to him through Solomon's Wisdom.

-Alibaba is understandably a bit angry because he wasn't told any of this.

-After they all board on one of Reim's ships Lady Scheherazade starts telling some of her history. She also tells that her real body is about to die.

-Suddenly, Reim and Magnostadt receive a message at the same time from the Kou empire... What will Mogamett do next?
