Chapter 33: Green Takes Action
update icon Updated at 2025/6/23 1:10:12

In the central region of the Farcist Kingdom, a giant fire lizard suddenly appeared.

According to experts, this lizard is highly likely to be from the summoning beast world and possibly even the king of fire lizards.

Standing at a height of twenty meters, it is engulfed in flames, even its fangs are made of fire.

The scorching temperature alone can make ordinary people feel suffocated at a single glance.

Knowledgeable wizards who saw it were astounded, their mouths hanging open in shock.

"How could such a powerful summoning beast appear in the capital?!"

However, under the control of Yeshis, the king of fire lizards did not unleash its destructive desires but instead chased after the fleeing Uth.

As a summoned beast, it is absolutely obedient to the commands of its contract holder, and the king of fire lizards is no exception.

Among many summoned beasts, while fire lizards are quite common and have average strength as fire-type summoned beasts, the king of fire lizards is unique, especially now with its greatly increased power, it is no less powerful than higher-level fire-type summoned beasts.

Uth was dumbfounded at the sight and quickly fled the scene, knowing that he was the target. At the same time, he cursed Yeshis for going insane.

Causing such a commotion here aside, Yeshis will definitely not have a good outcome in the end because that person is present.

But it is precisely because of this that Uth feels even more fearful.

Even though Yeshis had already been absent for decades, suddenly appearing now in such a situation clearly meant that he had ulterior motives.

There is no doubt that Yeshis has come with the determination to kill him.

But Uth is different from Yeshis. Yeshis has lost all purpose for living, but as one of the country's ministers, Uth still has many reasons to want to survive.

At least, he doesn't want to be killed by his former enemy in such a manner.

Therefore, Uth's escape direction is quite obvious. After a quick glance around, although he didn't find Green's figure, he spotted Aloof and the others. He immediately ran towards them.

As a minister of the kingdom, Uth naturally knows how powerful the man behind Aloof and the others is.

Seeking refuge at this moment is the best choice.

Aloof and the others, who are not aware of the past events, certainly won't be confused by such behavior. Rather, all their attention is focused on the king of fire lizards.

Although Green doesn't seem to want them to take action, they can still protect themselves.

So when the king of fire lizards attacked, Lilith naturally activated a protective barrier. The flames of the king of fire lizards, in front of Lilith, were like a small fire encountering a forest fire.

It's clear who is stronger.

While the king of fire lizards was chasing Uth, Yeshis himself remained in place.

The restraints on his body prevented him from moving freely, so he could only communicate with the king of fire lizards through telepathy to launch attacks.

Green then appeared by Yeshis' side and removed the shackles from his body.

Fred witnessed this scene and felt puzzled. He didn't understand why Green was helping a Sinful Mage, but after seeing Green's gaze, he chose to remain silent.

"Although I didn't see any evidence from you, I trust my instincts more. So if you want revenge, go and try it yourself. But whether you can succeed or not will depend on your own strength."

Upon hearing Green's words, Yeshis stood frozen for a moment, then deeply bowed.

"Thank you!"

He then chased after the king of fire lizards. However, what surprised Green was that several small fire magic arrays appeared around Yeshis, and several small fire lizards emerged from them.

Ignoring the flames on the fire lizards, Yeshis jumped on one of them as if riding a horse, chasing after the king of fire lizards.

Under the protection of Lilith and the others, Uth and the soldiers had already distanced themselves from the scene. Only Uth was still relatively close, still by the side of Lilith and the others.At the same time, Lilith and others also noticed something, that the fire lizard seemed to be constantly chasing after him.

"Hey, Minister Us, why does this lizard seem to hate you so much? Have you done anything to it before?"

"...No! Your Highness Aloof, how could that be! Summoned creatures are completely obedient to the summoner's contract and it is impossible for them to actively pursue someone on their own. I guess it must be that guy, Hesis, who wants to kill me, which is why he has made this lizard chase after me! I beg Your Highness Aloof to ask King Green for help, otherwise, I may die!"

Us looked terrified, completely scared out of his wits, which made Lilith look down on him a little.

But it was to be expected, Us himself had not undergone much combat training, so his combat power was very weak, and only his unique magical emotional manipulation was impressive.

However, not many people actually knew about Us's magic.

At least King Fred and Aloof didn't know.

So while looking down on him, Aloof was also confused about why Us, who was usually calm and composed in any situation and gave people a reliable feeling, would be wearing such an expression right now.

What Aloof didn't know was that Us was only trying to relax the people around him and be more easily protected. Otherwise, if he appeared calm and composed, people might think he had a trick up his sleeve and push him to the forefront.

But Us soon realized that Lilith and the others were only on the defensive, no matter how the fire lizard attacked, they couldn't break Lilith's defense, but she showed no intention of attacking.

This made Us anxious.

"Lady Lilith, why don't you attack it? With your strength, it should be easy to kill this stinking lizard!"

Lilith glanced at him but ignored him.

Although she didn't know what Green was up to, the life or death of this minister didn't concern her at all, and she didn't even know Us to begin with, so his current weak expression made her look down on him even more.

But at that moment, Lilith saw a figure suddenly rushing out of the protective barrier and charging straight towards the fire lizard.

"Aloof! What are you doing?!"

Seeing Aloof suddenly rushing out, a trace of a vicious smile flashed across Us's lips.

Being unnoticed was the most striking feature of Us's emotional manipulation, and it was also what made it terrifying.

It could easily manipulate others' emotions, mobilize their desires, and amplify these desires infinitely. Even the most timid person could muster the courage to challenge the sky.

The key point was that those who were unfamiliar with this move would not even realize that they were being manipulated.

Therefore, Aloof suddenly felt an urge from the bottom of his heart, and his body involuntarily charged towards the fire lizard, with magic formation appearing around him, and several magic attacks struck the Fire Lizard King.

However, it didn't cause any damage.

This was only natural, Aloof's strength was far inferior to the Fire Lizard King.

The Fire Lizard King sensed Aloof's attack and a hint of confusion flashed in its eyes. Although it was a summoned creature, summoned creatures were intelligent beings with higher intelligence, perhaps not as good as humans, but not far behind.

So it began to wonder why this human who had just been hiding behind others suddenly attacked it.

And the attack was so weak.

But when its gaze swept over Us inside the protective shield, the Fire Lizard King understood.

Without a doubt, its hunter had done something.

As a summoned creature of Hesis, the Fire Lizard King, just like Hesis, was well aware of Us's magical abilities, so it quickly understood Us's intentions.

It was nothing more than wanting to make it attack Us, triggering a stronger counterattack.

Because it also noticed that Lilith had been on the defensive all along without attacking.

After understanding this, a human-like sneer appeared on the Fire Lizard King's face, as if mocking Us's cleverness.

Coincidentally, at this moment, Hesis also arrived from a distance and sat on a small fire lizard, coming in front of Aloof.Aloof became alert at first, but soon realized that although the other party emitted a dangerous aura, they did not have any intention towards her.

"Are you Princess Aloof?"

"......Huh?"

From the tone of the other party, it seemed like Yuxi Heis had some familiarity with her. But apart from knowing that the other party was a Sinful Mage, Aloof had no other knowledge of them.

Yuxi Heis nodded as if confirming something.

"I can't be mistaken with this attitude. Although you may have forgotten, I had the fortune of meeting you when you were little, Princess Aloof. Although you may only know me as a Sinful Mage, I do not have any ill will towards you. I hope you will not obstruct my revenge."

"What are you talking about...? In any case, I am the princess of this country. I cannot allow you to harm its lawful citizens."

"Is that so..."

Yuxi Heis lowered their head in contemplation for a moment and then raised it, their gaze fixated on Us.

Ignoring Aloof, Yuxi Heis bypassed her and moved towards Us. Because of Lilith's protective barrier, Aloof did not dare to immediately launch an attack against them.

"Us, at a time like this, do you still want to hide behind a woman? You should be the one who understands my objective the most, right? So, if you are a man, face me head-on—"

"Bang!"

A dull thud, as if a solid object striking flesh, resonated.

Before Yuxi Heis could finish their sentence, they saw a figure suddenly appear behind Us, who was hiding behind the barrier. In the next moment, Us was sent flying out, leaving a trench in the ground.

"Green?!"

Lilith's first reaction was who could easily break through her defense, and her second reaction was to quickly confirm the identity of the intruder. However, when she saw that it was Green who entered, she immediately felt relieved.

"What... it's Green after all."

Yes, the one who sent Us flying was indeed Green.

This was also the most unexpected result for Us.
