The Butterfly's Wings Had Long Since Begun to Flap!!!

Loren knew full well that every Infinity Stone had a major impact on the future timeline. Taking them away in advance would inevitably bring unpredictable consequences to the future.

So he also knew that it was best not to touch the Infinity Stones unless necessary. Even the Space Stone in his possession would be thrown back at the right time.

Otherwise, if it affected the subsequent Battle of New York, he would suffer a huge loss. An event that big was bound to come with massive points and rewards, and he absolutely could not miss it.

The reason he had asked The Ancient One for the Time Stone was not because he wanted to keep it for himself, but simply because he wanted to devour some of its energy.

He now possessed the energy of the Space Stone and the Dark Dimension within his body. The two energies had entirely different uses, but both were incredibly powerful.

So he wanted to see whether he could devour some of the Time Stone's energy as well. Perhaps then he would be able to manipulate time with ease.

For example, stopping time within a certain area. If that worked, there would be plenty to play with. He could start a Time Stop series then.

That was right. Loren had no other demands when it came to devouring the Time Stone's energy. He simply wanted to try something different.

As a lecher, nothing was more important than starting a new series.

When she heard Loren say that he only wanted to touch the Time Stone, The Ancient One hesitated for a moment, then felt too embarrassed to refuse.

After all, he was not trying to take it away. He only wanted to touch it. If she still refused, it would seem a little disrespectful.
