Green Song: I Am the Root! (Continued)

Mo Yi, who was standing in front of him, had disappeared, as had Dirumdo, the brush-wielding guy who was blocking his way.

"This is--"

Director K's eyes widened, giving him a resemblance to the adorable, big-eyed marshal.

Until I heard a familiar voice erupting in impotent rage—'Ah!'

Director K then realized that Mo Yi and Brush Brother had retreated to a distance, and the one who was unleashing his impotent rage was none other than his follower Diarmuid.

"No need to struggle anymore, this is magic from another world—"

During the brief time stop, Mo Yi first used a Rune Prison and control the Brush Brother, then moved him to a safe place, making him his 'hostage'—the kind of hostage that nobody cared about.

Seeing Diarmuid trying to move his body and break free of the Rune chains binding him, Mo Yi kindly reminded him, "Your Magic Resistance my Rune Magic. You can't break free with brute force alone."

Kinneth: "..."

As expected, Diarmuid is useless!

After feeling Mo Yi looking at him, and even giving him a "Go for it!" gesture with his fist, Director K naturally understood what it meant!

While others could kidnap Diarmuid in an instant, they could also kill him in an instant. There was no possibility of refusing the so-called advice, so there was no need to discuss the conditions for victory or defeat.

He admitted that he couldn't understand what had just happened, and naturally couldn't resist such a swift and deadly attack.

In his impotent rage, Diarmuid realized he was truly powerless to resist and could only shout at Kinneth, "My lord, run! Caster is far too dangerous!"

Kinneth: "..."

If I can run, why wouldn't I run?

Well, Director K is a smart man. He knows he has no way out and can only accept this magic duel, even if he wins, he might still be killed.

After accepting it, the only thing he needed to deal with was the girl in the Western-style dress in front of him!

That's right, this is Kinneth's last skill. As the monarch of the Clock Tower and a renowned genius, he never believed that anyone of the same age could defeat him in the art of magic, let alone this young girl in front of him.

If he can successfully capture the opponent, or directly kill the Caster's Master, Kinneth might be able to turn the tide!

Yes, this is a trial, a trial from the past! Human growth is about overcoming the immature version of yourself from the past!

Since birth, Kinneth has overcome countless difficulties. No matter how dire the situation, nothing can stop Kinneth. This was true in the past and it is true now. Fate has chosen Kinneth!

What truly frightens Kinneth is only my own talent!

That's right, the monarch is Kinneth El-Melloi Archibald!

After using hypnotic magic to hypnotize himself (and setting a flag), Director K, a genius who is not good at fighting, finally rallied from his fear and felt that he was invincible. What he needed to consider was to come up Kinneth an escape route for himself before defeating the girl in front of him.

Having decided to take on the challenge, Director K habitually announced his name, both as a courtesy and to intimidate his opponent. Any ordinary magician in the magic world would be intimidated upon hearing the name Kinneth.

"Clock Tower Mineral Sovereign, Color Position, Magician, Kinneth El-Melloi Archibald—"

"Sajyou Aika— "

Green Song remained completely unmoved by Kinneth's long self-introduction, thinking only that the guy was incredibly talkative. He wondered whether to fight or not; after all, he was just a nobody, why was he making such a fuss?

"If you don't make a move, I'm going to start."

"The Noble Emperor— "

Immediately, Green Song summoned Slime Familiar from her shadow.

Upon seeing this, Director K quickly took out a test tube, poured out the Moon Cell Liquid, and infused it with magic, turning it into a mass of mercury-like liquid similar to slime.

"Boiling, my blood!"

Kinneth: Let the Moon Cell Liquid handle the defense, as it possesses automatic defense and perception capabilities.

Immediately, Director K began chanting an incantation, preparing to use Magic Crest to quickly unleash a powerful wind-attribute magic attack to defeat his opponent.

"It's the same type of magic as mine—"

Aika continued:

"Let me see how good you are?"

Since you've been fortunate enough to be chosen by Lord Mo Yi, let me Aika, see if you're qualified. You're all show and no substance; you have no reason to exist, and you don't even have the right to follow behind Lord Mo Yi!

"Here comes an emerald water splash, twenty meters in diameter."

Having said that, the Noble Emperor quickly transformed into a creature resembling a certain Dragon King, and then opened his mouth to unleash a super-high-pressure Water Gun infused with magic cubes, shooting it at Director K.

Even without mentioning those magic cubes, just being hit by a high-pressure Water Gun is enough to instantly turn an ordinary person into a pile of rubble!

Of course, Mo Yi prefers to call this move "Dragon King's Water Spray"!

"It's useless--"

Director K hadn't expected that the familiar of his, which resembled his Moon Cell Liquid, would have such a means of ranged attack. Even his Moon Cell Liquid only relied on the mercury itself to transform into sharp blades or spears, or to directly suck the enemy into the mercury mass and use the pressure to cause damage. He really hadn't figured out a ranged attack like the one the other party had.

Yes, it's not impossible, but the cost-effectiveness is not high. The main function of Moon Cell Liquid is to protect oneself and sense one's condition.

The Moon Cell Liquid instantly transformed into a wall, and the highly resilient mercury mass easily blocked Aika's casual Water Gun attack.

Immediately

"Boom boom boom—"

That's right, the Moon Cell Liquid exploded!

Because those magic blocks aren't just for show; they're meant to explode!

After learning that Mo Yi was a second-generation anime fan, Aika tried her best to imitate him. After all, having the same hobby is a shortcut to getting closer to each other. Aika looked ahead and laughed, "Those emeralds were touched by the Killer Queen, mortals."

Of course, Director K was quite capable. Although the explosion was sudden, he managed to block the shockwave and took the opportunity to unleash the Grand Magic he had prepared.

A massive magical storm, accompanied by the flames from the explosion, hurtled towards Aika.

"Did it succeed?"

Under the magical storm, the entire dock was instantly destroyed, and the resulting dust and smoke prevented Kinneth from immediately assessing Aika's condition.

"Until--"

Under the influence of an invisible force, everything around us is changing rapidly; more accurately, the world is being replaced!

Kinneth said in disbelief:
