Inside the Palace of Farcist.

Time passed second by second, with the old king pacing back and forth in front of his desk, his eyebrows furrowed. Even though Aloof and others were trying to console him, his mind was filled with thoughts of that person.

Yes, that person was Green.

Not long ago, the princess of the Caesar Empire suddenly appeared here, explicitly asking for Green by name. This caused great distress to the old king. Where could he find that kid Green at a time like this?

Even if he were to ask Aloof and the others, they would have no clue. After all, Aloof really didn't know where Green was right now, or even if she did, she wouldn't know how to find him.

This made Fred extremely anxious. After all, the princess of the Caesar Empire was the princess of the most powerful empire on the entire continent. Although Falxista's strength was formidable, it did not mean they could completely disregard the other side, especially when they had been waiting for a long time.

Aloof was naturally very anxious as well. The only way she could think of to contact Green was to put herself in danger and activate the SOS seal to summon him. Apart from that, there was only...

Wait a minute?! Aloof suddenly realized something and quickly looked at Lilith beside her.

"Lilith, do you still have that Nokia phone?"

"It's still at my place, why... Oh! Yeah, that thing seems to be able to contact Green!"

Lilith suddenly exclaimed with joy, but then felt a little embarrassed. It should have been obvious to think of this earlier, or rather, something deep down in her heart was interfering, selectively ignoring this matter.

Upon careful consideration, the only reason must be the princess of the Caesar Empire. It seemed that she had heard about a capable person in Falxista and wanted to come here to commission that person, namely Green, to help with some matters. However, Lilith's female intuition told her that there must be something wrong with this.

In fact, Lilith's intuition was correct. Tatia came here because she used all the resources at her disposal to find Green, and coincidentally there were some matters that needed to be dealt with recently. Tatia used the excuse of wanting to gain experience as an adult to personally lead a group of guards to Falxista.

Even if she couldn't escape her father's clutches, Tatia wouldn't easily give up on finding Green. At the very least, she wanted to see the true face behind Green's monkey mask.

After hearing Lilith's news, Fred finally felt much more at ease. The princess of the Caesar Empire had been waiting here for almost a week. If Green didn't show up soon, any unnecessary conflicts would be disastrous.

It wasn't that Fred was cowardly, it was just that he didn't like disputes by nature. Moreover, Falxista was currently in a period of great growth. If they could establish a good relationship with the Caesar Empire, it would be convenient in many aspects in the future.

Finally, Lilith managed to connect the call.

"Hello, who is this?"

"Uh... This is Lilith, and beside me are Aloof and Mio."

"Oh, what's up? Is something happening?"

Western Continent.

Green and Yuzuriha walked through the city, holding a lot of snacks in their hands, conversing through the Nokia phone as they ate.

The reason the two of them didn't go back for so many days was simple: they just wanted to play here. Moreover, the countries on the Western Continent indeed had different customs and cultures. After all, since they came all this way, it would be too dishonorable not to have fun to the fullest.

Of course, Lilith couldn't guess what Green and Yuzuriha were up to, but she quickly relayed the situation here to Green. When Green heard it, he was taken aback for a moment and then asked, "Tatia? Who is that?"

Coincidentally, Tatia was not far away. From the moment the call was connected to Green's voice entering her ears, Tatia almost instantly confirmed Green's identity. Although Green's voice underwent some changes through the Nokia, that "flavor" wouldn't change.

Upon hearing Green's question, Tatia approached quickly and imitated Lilith and the others, speaking into the Nokia, "Hello, who is this?"

"It's me, the person who was once saved by you wearing a monkey mask, the princess of the Caesar Empire!"

"Oh, it's you... wait, how did you find me???"

"Hehe, this princess has her own ways that you can't imagine!"

"..."

After hearing their conversation, Lilith became more certain that something fishy was going on between them. Aloof's expression also changed slightly, and with a gentle tone mixed with a hint of provocation, she said,

"My dear~ That's how it is, hurry back, okay?"

Without waiting for Green's response, Aloof fiercely pressed the hang-up button, then turned to look at Tia with a falsely friendly smile.

"Can we talk in more detail about what you just mentioned?"

"Um... we can..."

……………………

After being inexplicably hung up on, Green wasn't a fool and naturally sensed that Aloof was jealous again. She couldn't help but feel a little worried.

What if they did something to Tia...

That wouldn't be good...

With this in mind, Green swiftly returned in the direction she came from after consulting Yuzuriha's opinion. There wasn't much left to stay here for after playing around for a few days, and there really wasn't much need to stay any longer.

Inside the palace, Tia and her guards were discussing matters with Fred and the others in the reception room.

Aloof's tone became slightly unfriendly.

"It won't be long before Green comes back, so can you tell us your purpose now?"

"..."

Standing behind the conference table, Tia brought a group of guards with her. Even though their strength was not considered weak even in the Caesar Empire where powerful individuals were aplenty, let alone in this Falsistar Kingdom.

Although this Falsistar seemed to have grown stronger recently, Tia subconsciously still didn't take this kingdom seriously. So when faced with Aloof and the others, who clearly had an unfriendly attitude, Tia couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

"No need, this matter only needs to be told to Green, as you mentioned. Even if I were to tell you, your strength would be of no help at all."

Tia didn't show a good face to Aloof and the others, which made Aloof very unhappy.

First, this woman from the Empire wanted to find Green for no apparent reason, and now she was hiding some little secret from them, as if there was something unmentionable between her and Green.

Especially with Tia's contemptuous attitude in her eyes, it made Aloof feel exceptionally annoyed.

Fred naturally saw the situation at the scene and could only smile awkwardly about it.

Tia, as the princess of the Caesar Empire, had said that, so it was likely that the matter she wanted to entrust Green with was not simple. In comparison, Fred didn't want Aloof to get involved in anything too dangerous, after all, as a father, he knew Aloof's strength quite well.

In Falsistar, she was pretty good, but she wasn't that great in the entire continent.

But...

This was, after all, Falsistar's territory, and Green and Aloof's relationship was no secret. Even if Aloof's strength wasn't particularly strong, Mio and Lilith were not to be trifled with.

Thinking about saving face and riding on their prestige, Fred sipped his tea and smiled lightly.

Fred only smiled lightly and didn't say much, but this appearance was different in Tia's eyes. That smile seemed very calm, as if he had seen something funny.

But Fred was just like that, with a faint smile on his lips, but he just didn't say anything.

Finally, Tia couldn't help but ask.

"Your Majesty, may I ask what you are laughing at?"

"No, it's not something funny, it's just that I find it amusing how the princess can joke around like that."

"What do you mean?"

"You just said that our strength wouldn't be of any help, but I don't think so. At least, Mio-sama and Lilith-sama's strength is not as simple as it appears on the surface. To be honest, even if all of our soldiers were to attack together, they wouldn't be a match for them."

"..."

Fred's words surprised Tia, and Aloof's face was filled with black lines.

I really don't know how Fred can proudly say this, but Lilith and Mio are not outsiders, of course, this is also because of Green's connection in between.

Lilith is not a fool and naturally understood the meaning behind Fred's words.

In the past, Lilith might have taken the initiative to challenge the sharpness of Tia, but since going through the Magic Sky Tower, Lilith's temperament has undergone tremendous changes.

Seeing Tia now gave her an illusion of seeing her past self.

"Well, since you said that, why don't you let them spar with my guards? If you can defeat my guards, I will tell you the purpose of my visit this time."

"Since the princess has said so, I have no reason to refuse. However, for the sparring, I alone am enough."

"Oh...?"

Tia narrowed her eyes. This was a naked provocation, but since the other party wanted to take the initiative forcefully, Tia naturally had no objection, especially since she also noticed that these women seemed to have an unusual relationship with Green. It would be good to test their mettle.

So, the eyes of both sides began an intense battle.

A few minutes later, they arrived at the biggest arena in the castle. Some soldiers who were resting heard about it and hurriedly came to the scene.

After all, it was a fortunate thing for them to be able to witness a battle between the big shots.

On the arena, one of Tia's guards stepped forward first, followed closely by Lilith.

Even among Lilith's guards, they were well-known throughout the Caesar Empire, so they didn't really pay much attention to Lilith, a little girl.

One of Tia's guards on the opposing side kindly reminded, "Miss, if you give up now, it's still possible. Otherwise, something unexpected might happen during the battle, after all, our princess didn't come here to pick a fight."

"You don't have to worry about that. I have my own measure—I won't let you get too injured."

"..."

The guard fell silent.

Obviously, he took Lilith's words as empty talk, but it didn't matter. He had seen many strong-willed girls like her, and Tia was one of them.

"Both participants, take your positions, and the duel begins. Friendship first, victory second!"

With the referee's signal to start the match, the guard immediately released a powerful magic from within him.

This momentum instantly surprised the ordinary soldiers present, and even Fred was slightly astonished. He thought to himself that the guards of the Caesar Empire were indeed extraordinary.

But compared to Green...

Even if it was compared to Lilith, there was no guarantee of victory.

Lilith stared at the guard with his magic exposed, and even though the soldiers were excited, Lilith didn't make any move, not even a trace of intention to attack.

The guard who assumed Lilith was scared by him thought he would end the battle as quickly as possible, and at the same time, he needed to control himself to avoid hurting his opponent.

Driven by this thought, he made his move.

The field was immediately filled with afterimages, and the smell of strong magic gradually spread.

Most soldiers on the scene had witnessed Lilith's strength, so most of them thought Lilith might lose. Even those who had confidence in Lilith couldn't help but worry as they saw Lilith standing still in the field.

Although the average person couldn't see the guard's movements clearly, in Lilith's eyes, his movements were as slow as a snail, so she couldn't muster any interest.

She couldn't help but sigh. She had unknowingly become so powerful.

And at this moment, the guard thought he saw an opportunity. He had already prepared several magic arrays, and colorful elemental attacks were rotating and converging towards Lilith.

Of course, he would stop his attack right before it hit, but what he didn't expect was that facing such a powerful magic attack, Lilith didn't retreat but thrust out her palm, opening up a magic array as if she was going to confront it head-on.

However, in the next moment, the guard was dumbfounded. From the cerulean magic array summoned by Lilith, a cheetah made of flames suddenly emerged, instantly devouring the magic attack he had launched, without leaving a trace.
