Just as Luo Ge's face was filled with a survival instinct and his brain was racing.

A name almost slipped out... Rudeus?

Are you kidding me?

Is it possible?

It's obviously impossible.

Because the material of these panties is very expensive, and the edges are decorated with a small pattern, it is clearly a girl's style.

So whose is it?

Hmm... it's really hard to guess.

To be frank, Luo Ge only knows a handful of girls, really just a few.

Nanahoshi?

It's unlikely, she was clearly only wearing black...

Teacher Roxy? He hoped it was, but he had just been denied by her own mouth.

After much guessing, a blue-haired girl with squinting eyes and bangs suddenly appeared in Luo Ge's mind.

Damn it!

Squinty eyes!

Isolte!

How could I have forgotten about her?

... The thought that the good image I had worked so hard to build in front of the teacher was about to be ruined and wasted was too much to bear.

Luo Ge couldn't help but curse Isolte his breath, "You woman deserve to die!!!"

at the same time.

While Isolte was having a meal with everyone at the Water God Style in the Asura Kingdom, the hand holding her bowl suddenly trembled, and she couldn't help but sneeze.

She rubbed her nose and frowned in confusion.

That's strange.

Has anyone suddenly started talking about themselves?

A hint of doubt flashed in Isolte's eyes, then she put down her bowl and thought about it seriously.

Yes, it must be him.

If that man has a spirit in heaven, he must be frantically calling out her name.

The scene shifts back to the carriage outside the city of Milision.

The tiny Roxy had already approached Luo Ge, staring at him with a look of pure curiosity.

" Luo Ge, um? Can you explain this to me now? Whose is this?"

Whose is it?

"Not saying anything? Could it be Lara's?"

"No!"

Luo Ge vehemently denied it, shaking his head vigorously.

"So, Luo Ge had other girls after all." Roxy said with a half-smile, her tone unreadable, but the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned.

"Um... um..."

Luo Ge was now in a complete panic, even more so than when he saw the Dragon God appear.

At least the Dragon God could still fight, but this guy didn't even have a chance to fight back.

"Alright."

Roxy suddenly stopped pressing him, took a step back, leaned against the carriage, and said in a more relaxed tone, " Luo Ge, it's okay if you don't want to talk about it."

"After all, Luo Ge has been so outstanding since he was a child. When he grows up... he'll definitely have many girls who like him."

Looking at her feigned magnanimity, Luo Ge suddenly made up his mind and blurted out, "Teacher, I like you more than any other girl."

"..."

There was a moment of silence in the carriage.

Looking at Luo Ge's face, which was already incredibly handsome despite being only thirteen years old, Roxy felt truly embarrassed.

Feeling ashamed, she kept her head down, her gaze never daring to meet Luo Ge's eyes, her fingers fidgeting with her ponytail.

"... What you just said touched me. Thank you, Luo Ge. I'm so glad to hear you say you like me."

"But Luo Ge, have you really thought this through?"

"Are we really a good match? You're human, and I'm a demon..."

"It's okay, race isn't a problem."

"What about age? Am I too old? I'm over forty, and you're only thirteen..."

"There's no need to worry about this, teacher. In short... age difference isn't a problem."

"Is this a good idea? Isn't the gap between us a bit too big?"

The more Roxy talked, the more embarrassed she felt. She felt that she, a 40-year-old "old auntie," was completely unworthy of such an outstanding Luo Ge.

Looking at the face she had watched grow up, Roxy felt a pang of guilt.

If I, as a teacher, were to attack my own student, would Paul and Zenith object if they found out?

The age difference, in particular, has always troubled Roxy.

Am I too old at over forty?

And what about his demon identity? Won't he be looked down upon and embarrass Luo Ge?

In short... these are all issues that Roxy, as an adult, needs to consider. She is thinking about these issues very seriously from the perspective of an elder.

Although Luo Ge said he didn't care, Roxy, who had a strong sense of inferiority, was still somewhat cautious even when facing Luo Ge, her disciple.

"Teacher, it's okay."

"I see."

"I see..."

Roxy took a deep breath, raised her eyes, and her expression became much more serious. "If you still have this idea two years from now, then talk to me then."

"You've only just turned thirteen this year. Although you're already very capable, it's inevitable that you'll still have some immature aspects in your thinking."

"Marriage and dating... these things are still a bit too early."

"Then it's a deal, teacher, you can't refuse me on my fifteenth birthday, okay?"

"Um..."

Roxy blushed and nodded slightly, a little embarrassed.

Although his confession was unsuccessful, Luo Ge was not disappointed.

Perhaps Roxy is right; he also needs time to mature and prove himself.

Otherwise, acting impulsively is not only irresponsible to oneself, but also to the teacher.

Da da da da...

As the carriage slowly changed direction and returned to the city, neither of them noticed.

A figure stood far away on a nearby hillside, silently observing everything that was happening.

She has the exact same appearance as Roxy, but their personalities are fundamentally different.

Roxy is gentle and mature, while she is quirky and mischievous.

She was none other than Lara, the future savior who had rescued Luo Ge from the Dragon God.

Lara Greyrat.

A girl who wants to correct the past and change the future.

She came here only to change her fate... and saw that she had finally changed the past with her own hands.

Lara also showed a satisfied smile.

She stood on the hillside, the wind blowing her blue hair and the hem of her skirt swaying gently.

Watching the carriage disappear into the distance, Lara smiled, "Two years early? Not too late... Sigh, you two idiots, Dad and Mom, you've finally come to your senses a little."

"My painstaking planning wasn't in vain..."

"Hehehe, I've already set up this game. So, Hitogami, how will you respond now?"

"This time, no matter what methods you use, even if you 'Hitogami... you will never have another chance to turn the tables..."

When she finished speaking with such certainty, if only Luo Ge and Roxy had turned around and looked at her even once more.

You could actually see the deep longing in Lara's eyes, and tears were already silently streaming down her cheeks.

The figure gradually became blurred...

There wasn't even time to say goodbye to them.

actually.

She had already foreseen this scene using divination magic.

Everything was going according to her plan.

The person she initially wanted to pressure was never Roxy, but rather Luo Ge, to make a choice...

After all, as their future child, how could she not understand Roxy's personality?

A straight-laced father and an insecure mother... it's so hard for these two to be together.

At this very moment.

The gears of fate have turned.

By personally changing the past, perhaps that destined tragedy will no longer repeat itself?

The vibrations caused by a butterfly flapping its wings... will one day lead to a storm sweeping across the entire continent.

And she is the wings of that butterfly.

A gentle breeze blew by, Lara's expression gradually softened, no longer showing regret.

Splash splash...

Her body gradually vanished into nothingness at a visible speed, starting from her fingertips, disappearing little by little like grains of sand blown away by the wind, as if she had never existed in the world.

She took one last look at the city and the two people, a smile still lingering on her lips, before vanishing from this world completely.

And the gears of fate, along with her disappearance, began to turn miraculously at this moment, officially heading towards a completely different crossroads.

This is a completely new future.

A future that Lara wants to create herself...

at the same time.

In a space devoid of direction, a pure white expanse.

That is the center of the entire Six-Faced World, the "World of Nothingness".

The Hitogami sealed here by the First Dragon God were already sweating profusely with anxiety, repeatedly cursing at the air.

"Hateful..."

"Hateful..."

"Damn it, why? Why?!"

Just before today, everything seemed to be moving in a positive direction, and everything was in the best interests of Hitogami.

Even with the assistance of Rudeus's descendants, the evil forces of the Dragon God, no matter how hard they tried, would ultimately be easily defeated by the righteous side.

It has changed.

He spent so much time planning and moving the pieces one by one, finally managing to build a very favorable situation to this point.

But just now, everything in the future has changed; the future has collapsed before our very eyes.

Future Sight could see the future, but during this time... he briefly lost control and couldn't see what was happening around Luo Ge at all.

However... the Hitogami probably guessed that someone was secretly sabotaging him, stealing his most capable apostle away—how despicable! To watch the future continue to develop in a way that was detrimental to him?

No?

He won't give up easily and just wait to die.

His deep, calculating Hitogami hinted at something... What should he do next?
