Chapter 24 Green‘s Guessing
update icon Updated at 2025/6/14 13:10:13

"......This is something you don't need to know!"

As the words fell, Kierg's time magic was once again activated, and the surrounding area lost color again. Green's expression also froze in place. Kierg smiled somewhat awkwardly, then stood up and tried to run.

He wanted to distract Green's attention, so that even if Green chased after him, he could buy some time. For Kierg at this moment, even a second of time was incredibly important.

Yet, as the saying goes, reality is often cruel.

Before he could even regain his balance, Green grabbed him by the collar from behind.

"You?!"

Kierg never expected that his sudden use of time stop when Green wasn't paying attention couldn't even hold Green for a second, which was unacceptable to him.

In the years he had been a Sin Mage, he rarely engaged in direct confrontations with others. He would always use time stop and slip away. As a result, his threat level within the Sinful Mage community wasn't very high, and his fame was relatively lower compared to other Sinful Mages.

However, low fame didn't mean he was weak. Even when facing the entity inside Kassica's body head-on, Kierg, relying on his own time abilities, possessed the power to fight. But now, in front of Green, let alone a fight, he couldn't even manage to run a few steps.

Green was like a bear catching a mischievous child, pulling him back and directly breaking his time domain.

"Where do you think you're going?"

"Damn it..."

Kierg unwillingly sat down on the ground, dismissing any thoughts in his mind. However, his gaze inadvertently fell upon the huge device not far behind Green.

Green naturally noticed this, but did not destroy the device.

One reason was that his intuition told him the device wasn't that dangerous. Another reason was that compared to the device, Green was more interested in satisfying his own curiosity.

"Since I found you earlier, your attention has been fixed on that device. If my guess is correct, you used your sudden burst of power just now to distract me, right?"

"..."

Kierg didn't say anything, but his expression answered for him.

Green took a few steps towards the device, then turned his back to Kierg and asked:

"It's obvious that this device is very important to you."

"Hmph..."

"According to the intelligence, most of the forbidden magic books you stole are related to time. In that room I saw earlier, there were many research notes on certain studies. What's more, I noticed that the energy inside this device is extremely similar to the magic power within you... Are you planning on performing some violent acts on time?"

With each word from Green, Kierg's mood became increasingly tense. And when Green spoke that last sentence, which sounded somewhat strange, Kierg immediately realized that Green had already guessed his intention with great certainty.

Upon realizing this, a strong sense of crisis surged within Kierg.

One must understand that in this world, any research related to time is considered a severe crime no matter where it occurs, even ranking first among many forbidden arts as a dangerous element.

It can be said that once Green were to publicize his discoveries here, it wouldn't take long for people from across the continent to gather their forces and hunt him down.

That was also the reason why he had always maintained a low profile.

Furthermore, due to the unique nature of time magic, outsiders found it even more difficult to determine whether Kierg had mastery over it or not.

But now, not only had he encountered someone like Green who was able to resist the power of time, this person also had a great possibility of discerning his thoughts.

In any case, he had no reason to believe that Green wouldn't eliminate him.

However, until the outcome was decided, he would make a final resistance.

"You guessed right. The power of time that you all have always feared has been thoroughly studied by me! Feeling fear is normal, after all, it goes against the will of the gods. But if you want to stop me, I won't easily surrender to you."

Kierg shouted as loudly as he could at Green, as if he would charge at Green and fight him to death if Green dared to say a word. This overwhelming aura could indeed shake the determination of someone with weak willpower.However, Green's answer was completely unexpected by Kilg. Instead of violently arresting him as he had imagined, Green slowly and powerfully applauded him, the crisp sound echoing loudly in the room.

Green smiled and looked at Kilg, then said something completely unexpected.

"I won't stop you, in fact, I will support you."

"What... What did you say?!"

"Don't you hear me clearly? Then let me say it again: not only will I not stop you, but I will also support your ideas."

"..."

Even though Kilg had thought of countless countermeasures, he never expected Green to say such words at this moment.

Clearly, Green was the enemy, but instead of hindering him, he would even support him. Didn't this guy know how dangerous it was to tamper with time?

In this situation, Kilg had to suspect that Green had some other ulterior motive. At least he wouldn't let his guard down because of these two sentences.

But Green was not in a hurry either. Whether Kilg believed him or not was another matter. After saying these words, Green leaned against the wall and even closed his eyes to feign sleep.

Seeing Green completely indifferent, Kilg's skeptical heart began to waver. After observing for a while, he found that Green really seemed to have no intention of stopping him.

Gradually, Kilg felt a little relieved.

In fact, Green didn't originally plan this way, but a sudden idea came to his mind, which prompted him to say something completely unexpected to Kilg.

If his intuition was correct, he would probably get the answer he wanted soon.

Kilg obviously had no idea about Green's plan, but it didn't matter to him. He just wanted to quickly accelerate the operation of the device before Green changed his mind.

At this moment, even a second was extremely precious.

Kilg put on the pink dress again and felt an inexplicable impulse. His hands turned into phantom images as he operated the device driven by intense emotions.

Green glanced at Kilg from a distance and couldn't fully accept his fetish. He chose not to look at him and relied on his perception. Kilg's every move could not escape his eyes.

As time passed by, Tia and the others became restless.

According to Green's skills, he shouldn't have taken so long to deal with the Sinful Mage. The fact that this situation occurred meant that something unusual had happened, and most importantly, Elsa gave Tia an uncomfortable feeling.

Perhaps it was the nature of a succubus, but when Tia looked at Elsa, she felt a strange impulse in her heart. Although it was easy to suppress this impulse, it made Tia very uncomfortable, as if someone was controlling her mind.

The soldiers around felt the same way too, so they tried not to look at Elsa, but they couldn't help but sneak a glance.

Regardless, Elsa was a stunning beauty, especially with her white hair, which was extremely rare.

For Elsa, it was also frustrating to deal with the phenomena caused by her racial talents. As a high-level succubus, she naturally emitted an irresistible charm that low-level beings couldn't resist.

Even though she couldn't actively use some skills in her current state, her passive skills were still effective.

Although this skill had no effect on Green, who appeared to be human...

Finally, Tia couldn't bear it anymore.

"Green has been gone for so long, shall we go and investigate?"

"Indeed. With Green Your Majesty's skills, he should have easily dealt with the opponent, but he hasn't appeared for so long. He must have encountered some difficult situation."

The soldiers speculated, and Tia nodded in agreement. But just as everyone was about to go and see what was happening, Elsa, who hadn't spoken all this time, spoke up.

"I mean, wouldn't it be useless for you to go? That person's true strength is not as simple as you imagine. In my opinion, with your limited abilities, you'll only get in the way. It's better to stay here honestly.""Well, it sounds like you're right. With our current capabilities, we would probably just be a burden if we went."

"...It should be said that we would definitely be a burden."

Because of the charm radiated by Elsa herself, the soldiers subconsciously leaned towards her after hearing her words. However, upon careful thought, they realized that they didn't even know what had happened earlier, and the Sinful Mage had already disappeared.

From the situation at that time, it was not difficult to analyze that Green and the Sinful Mage had clashed.

After calm reflection, the soldiers all came to the conclusion that blindly wanting to help others would only cause chaos,

Listening to the soldiers around her, Tia gradually abandoned the idea of catching up and only felt a faint sense of loss in her heart.

But staying here was too suffocating, so Tia began to recall the feeling she had last night, trying to enter that state again. After a few attempts, she realized it was impossible with her current abilities alone.

Elsa also noticed that Tia seemed to want to do something, but she didn't pay any attention to it.

Due to having her own time absorbed by the witch, Elsa's mental state was not very good. Although she wouldn't die, she probably couldn't continue to live as energetically as before.

Now Elsa could only place her hope on Green, who could defeat her grandfather.

The room fell into silence once again.

After about five minutes, Green opened his eyes as if he sensed something.

At this time, Kilge was still manipulating the giant time device with extremely fast hands, and the purple energy inside was almost full, with a faint glow on the surface.

Finally, with Kilge firmly pressing a button, he stopped his actions.

Green also walked towards him at this time.

For Kilge, things were different now. After absorbing Elsa's power of time, the device was ready to be activated. So even though Green was approaching him now, he no longer felt the same sense of crisis as before.

"Hmph, this device has already been activated by me. Even if you want to stop it, it's too late. Next, you will witness the birth of this miracle with me!"

After shouting, Kilge quickly took off the female clothing on his body and stretched out his hands towards the giant device.

From his excited expression, he seemed to be looking forward to what was about to happen.

In response, Green remained expressionless, just watching the changes in the device.

The purple energy in the device emitted a brighter and brighter light, even lighting up this dark space like daylight. However, despite the intense light, neither of them blinked.

At this moment, Kilge's heart was shouting.

After preparing for so many years and expending so much energy, he could finally welcome the fruits of his efforts. For years, he had lived in sadness, but he knew that this state would completely change from now on.

And Green knew that he would soon get the answers he needed.
