This matter was just a small incident. The strong man was quickly carried away, and the crowd soon stopped paying attention to it.

After experiencing this incident, everyone's attitude towards Green had completely changed compared to before.

If there were doubts about Green before, then after witnessing his ruthless side, those narrow-minded thoughts vanished long ago.

Fortunately, Caesar did not delve into this matter. Otherwise, he might have been severely reprimanded.

However, the atmosphere in the Caesar Empire has always been harsh. Small frictions are normal occurrences. Afterward, Caesar told Green to adapt to such an environment in the future.

Although Green didn't really feel anything.

The next morning.

After Tia finished her morning routine, she didn't find Green. She asked the guards and learned that Green was at the training ground. When she arrived, she found Green discussing something with a group of soldiers, so she curiously approached.

"Indeed, indeed. I never expected Lord Green's training intensity to be so high. No wonder he has such incredible physical strength..."

"But, let's not talk about the rest. Just doing ten thousand push-ups in a day... isn't that a bit too exaggerated?"

"What are you saying? If you can't even do ten thousand, how can you defend the country in the future?!"

"That's true..."

As Tia approached, she overheard some speechless words.

She saw Green being surrounded by soldiers, bragging about his training methods. His words were lengthy and repetitive, and any normal person would think Green was fooling them.

And indeed, that was the case, but who made Green's strength so incredible, leaving these soldiers dumbfounded.

"To summarize, in order to acquire the same powerful physical abilities as me, besides practicing magic, you need to do ten thousand weighted squats, ten thousand weighted push-ups, as well as ten thousand burpees..."

"Yes, yes! I understand... indeed, indeed..."

Only when Tia caught Green in her peripheral vision did he stop his nonsense and quickly walked over.

"Oh, Tia!"

Upon hearing Tia's name, the soldiers noticed her presence and quickly stood upright, respectfully bowing to Tia.

Tia glanced at Green, then said, "Follow me."

"Alright~"

Thus, Green waved goodbye to the soldiers and left.

As for how these soldiers would end up in their training, that was no longer Green's concern, and it's not like anyone would die, right?

Afterward, Green followed Tia to a pavilion.

"What's the matter? Why did you come to me? Your father shouldn't have any suspicions now, right?"

"It seems like he doesn't, but I don't think this can continue."

"What do you suggest then?"

Supporting his chin, Green looked at Tia, completely indifferent to the matter at hand.

This attitude irritated Tia to some extent, but she held it in. After all, Green was helping her with this matter, and even if it failed, Green wouldn't be the one who suffered any losses.

However, Tia also understood that continuing with the current situation would eventually reveal something. After all, Green's lack of interest in Tia was too apparent, sometimes even making her wonder if Green was a normal man.

While Tia may not be considered a national goddess, she was still a princess of the country, with a decent appearance and not lacking in strength and talent. In theory, no man should dislike her.

And even if her personality couldn't be considered good, it couldn't be called bad either, right?

Tia truly couldn't understand why Green had no interest in her. It was truly baffling.

"Green, I have a question for you."

"What is it?"

Tia suddenly held a serious expression on her face. Seeing her like this, Green realized the seriousness of the situation and changed his previously casual demeanor, slightly tightening his expression.

However, the question Tia asked almost made Green spray out a mouthful of old blood.

Tia looked directly at Green and asked solemnly, "Why don't you have any sexual interest in me?"

"Green, are you frigid? Or impotent?"

"Pfft!"

Green never expected Tia to ask such a question. As a grown man, being questioned like this by a girl felt like a serious provocation. Without thinking, he immediately shouted, "Do you want to find out?"

"Uh...?"

Green slammed his hand on the table and stared fiercely at Tia. Along with these provocative words, Tia stood frozen in place. It wasn't until Green realized the meaning behind his words that Tia's face turned red to the roots of her ears.

Green suddenly felt a sense of unease and was about to explain when Tia lowered her head and whispered in a barely audible voice, saying something even more seductive and enticing.

"If it's you, I have no... objections..."

After saying these words, a faint white mist seemed to rise from Tia's blushing cheeks...

Meanwhile, Green stood frozen in place, unable to make any move. However, despite his lack of action, Green's mind raced at an exceptionally fast speed, trying to figure out how to smoothly pass over this awkward moment. But he couldn't think of an appropriate solution, and no one could step in to save the situation.

As for going along with Tia's words and continuing this affair, even a person with minimal intelligence would know it was impossible.

However, Green also noticed that Tia's feelings for him didn't seem fake. This stirred a twinge of guilt within him.

On Tia's side, as Green remained silent for a long time, she began to calm down. Summoning her courage, she spoke again, "So, Green, you really are impotent!"

"Absolutely not!"

What a joke, Green would never admit to that.

But now that matters had come to this point, Tia struggled internally for a moment before deciding to abandon any attempt at resolution.

"Then why won't you do it with me?"

"Do what?"

"You... you know exactly what I mean..."

It was too embarrassing.

Tia had never spoken so explicitly to a man before, especially not to someone she had feelings for. Shame filled her chest; she didn't even want to imagine her current state. It was safe to assume that she looked extremely embarrassed.

But this made Tia suddenly realize something. Would this kind of behavior make Green feel disgusted? In that instant, Tia had a vague feeling, and the scene before her eyes became clearer. She could see Green's expression, which seemed tangled.

In other words...

"I-I'm sorry!"

Just as Green was struggling to find a way to end things without damaging their current relationship and hurting Tia too much, he suddenly heard Tia apologize and then quickly run away, tears in her eyes.

"Well, this seems to have gotten a bit messy..."

Green's hand, which had been outstretched, dropped back down.

At that moment, a familiar voice rang in Green's ear.

"Aren't you going to go after her?"

"Huh? Um..."

Green turned his head and found it was Caesar. It seemed that he had been too focused on his conversation with Tia earlier and hadn't noticed Caesar approaching.

Seeing Green's bewildered expression, Caesar continued, "I apologize for my daughter causing you trouble. Actually, I've known about it for a while, since the first moment I saw you."

"Huh?"

Green was stunned. Had Caesar known all along that their relationship was fake and had just played along...

Thinking this, Green felt an inexplicable sense of gratitude. It turned out that Caesar, who appeared so rough, also had a sensitive and gentle side.

However, before Green could be moved for more than a few seconds, Caesar's next words almost infuriated him.

"From the moment you rejected my daughter, I suspected that you might have some problems in that area, and judging from your conversation just now, my initial judgment was correct. Although I don't know what happened between you and Tia afterward to make you accept her, I believe Tia must have known this already and wouldn't hold it against you. So..."

Caesar completely ignored the confused expression on Green's face and raised his hands solemnly, shouting with righteousness, "Go ahead and love boldly, young man!"

What the hell! I love you! Green roared in his heart, but after hesitating for a moment, he decided to catch up and see what was going on.

It would be bad if Tia did something impulsive because of this.

"Well, thanks... uncle." Green gritted his teeth and said thank you, without even looking at Caesar's joyful expression. Then, he chased after Tia in the direction she left.

It was not difficult for Green to catch up with Tia at his speed, but he discovered that Tia seemed to have hidden her presence. This was not something worth mentioning. The key was the technique she used to conceal her presence.

Green realized that Tia's technique for hiding her presence was extremely sophisticated, almost like a master of source energy.

Suddenly, Green thought of the guidance he had given to Tia before, consciously or unconsciously. Could it be that she had listened to him attentively and made an effort to ponder afterwards?

If that were the case, Green had to praise Tia's talent.

But if she wanted to hide herself in front of Green to this extent, it was too far-fetched. Although Tia was talented, she had only learned superficial knowledge.

Soon, Green found Tia in the deep part of a small forest not far away.

It was a small forest with dense branches and leaves.

Based on observation, it could be initially inferred that this place was suitable for...

"Cough, cough!" Green quickly fake coughed a few times to sweep away the unhealthy thoughts in his mind.

Now was not the time for that kind of thing.

Although Green was not sure why Tia suddenly ran away and had such a sorrowful expression, everything happened for a reason, and this reason must have something to do with himself.

Since it was caused by him, it was necessary to take responsibility.

At the very least, seeing Tia in such a sad state, Green couldn't just sit idly by.

Green didn't want to be seen as an extremely lousy man.
