Chapter 033 Time Magic, Changing Time.

Luo Bai returned to his study and continued studying "The Book of Emperor Weishan."

Although he hardly used magic in his actual battle with the Hulk, mages with "super abilities" who lack magic resistance have an advantage in such confrontations.

However, he didn't leave empty-handed. At the very least, his actual combat experience and magical energy had improved slightly. It wasn't a huge help, but it was useful.

During the process of learning magic, Luo Bai absorbed information quickly and understood it more thoroughly. After a whole night of study, he had thoroughly learned all the contents of "The Book of Weishan Emperor" and started to delve into "Time Compilation."

Although Luo Bai had used the Time Stone before, he had not systematically learned how to wield its full power. It was time to get better at it.

"Time Compilation" sounds like a book about studying time, but in essence, it is a magical text that teaches how to control time. This book records the understanding of time magic by Supreme Mages throughout history.

It includes the basic concepts of time, the impact of timelines on the universe and multiverse, and the basic theories of time and time magic. Though there is a lot of content in the book, to simplify it, the entire text analyzes the original Time Stone.

Most Supreme Mages cannot control time independently; they need to utilize the power of the "Time Stone." Through this artifact, mages can learn time-related magic. The time magic recorded in the book includes: time acceleration, time reversal, future prediction, time stopping, and more.

There is a clearly marked sentence on the first page of the book: "The Time Stone contains infinite power, and no one can fully understand it."

The meaning of this statement is self-evident. In summary, although Supreme Mages have used the Time Stone, no one has yet fully grasped the energy and profound meanings contained within it. Therefore, those who use the original Time Stone can analyze the energy it contains through their own understanding.

After briefly reading the theoretical analysis and the basic introduction to the Time Stone, Luo Bai took out the Eye of Agamotto and activated the Time Stone.

With focus, a green light lit up in his hands. This green light represented the power of time within the Time Stone.

Luo Bai found a random chair in the house and began to experiment. Moving his palm clockwise accelerated time, making the chair take on a future appearance. Conversely, moving his palm counterclockwise reverted time, causing the chair to return to its original shape, possibly even its previous appearance.

Since Luo Bai was new to this learning and not yet proficient with the power of time, he sometimes struggled. He was so focused on his practice that he didn't notice the knock on the door.

At the same time, Polaris had been knocking for a full minute. Although she kept hearing noises inside the house, it took a long time before Luo Bai finally opened the door, leaving her very confused.

"Why is it that people are in the house but don't open the door?" Polaris muttered to herself as she tried twisting the door lock.

To her surprise, the door was unlocked and opened instantly. But before she could observe the situation inside, she was greeted by a burst of green light.

Suddenly, a mini version of Polaris appeared in front of Luo Bai.

That's right. The North Star had unexpectedly shown up, but Luo Bai didn't notice it at all. While practicing time magic, he had accidentally turned her into a child by sending her back in time.

Although little Polaris looked quite cute, Luo Bai wondered who would be his housekeeper now that she had reverted to childhood.

Thinking of this, Luo Bai couldn't help but ask, "Why did you come up here? Didn't I tell you not to go to the second floor unless there were special circumstances?"

Little Polaris opened her big, watery eyes and replied, "Brother, what are you talking about? Where are you?"

After hearing her answer, Luo Bai remembered something from the book. If you use time magic to change a person's time, such as going back to the past, that person's memory also remains in the past.

To put it simply, Luo Bai had accidentally changed Polaris back to her childhood, meaning her memories were also from that time. She didn't remember anything from her adult life.

Luo Bai tried to use time magic to return Polaris to her current appearance, but despite numerous attempts, he was unsuccessful due to his lack of proficiency. Instead, his strange behavior only confused little Polaris further.

"Brother, what are you doing? What does this gesture mean?" she asked, looking at him with her big, innocent eyes.

Luo Bai fell silent. After trying for a while, he decided to give up for now. He planned to practice more and then restore Polaris to her original form after mastering the time magic.

Thinking this over, Luo Bai patiently explained, "Lorna, this is your brother's room. You can stay here with me for now. Why don't you go downstairs and play by yourself first? I'll come down to play with you later, okay?"

Little Polaris seemed quite obedient as a child. She nodded eagerly and said, "Okay, big brother!"

After saying that, she went downstairs, but soon she ran back up.

"Big brother, there's a big sister downstairs looking for you! She said she must see you," little Polaris said.

"Must see me?!" Luo Bai paused what he was doing and went downstairs.

When he arrived, he saw Natasha Romanoff sitting on the sofa, with a silver box on the coffee table. Judging by its appearance, it looked very much like the money box from a TV series.

Luo Bai guessed she was there to deliver money. Sure enough, the next second Natasha said, "This is the reward Nick Fury promised you. It totals three hundred thousand. Do you want to count it?"

"No need," Luo Bai replied, curious. "Just give the box to Lorna. Is there something wrong that you needed to call me down?"

Natasha smiled and said, "She said the same thing, but I insisted that you get it yourself. After all, you promised to drink coffee with me, right?"

At that moment, Luo Bai finally understood why Polaris had suddenly come to find him—it was because of Natasha Romanoff.

Although Natasha had asked him to have coffee, he hadn't taken it seriously at the time and thought it was a joke.

"I thought you were joking! Besides, I didn't agree to it then; I just said we'd see when the time came," Luo Bai said.

Natasha smiled but didn't say much. Instead, she curiously asked, "I didn't expect you to have a daughter at such a young age."

After saying this, she looked at little Polaris.

Luo Bai realized she had misunderstood, so he explained, "She is not my daughter."

"Then who is she?!" Natasha was confused.

Luo Bai didn't know how to clarify, so he simply said, "This is complicated; some situations have arisen. In fact, this girl is Lorna."

This little girl is the North Star?!

Natasha Romanoff was utterly baffled and frowned. "I don't understand what you mean."

Luo Bai didn't elaborate, but he suddenly had an idea. Lorna was now a little girl who needed care and comfort, and Natasha just happened to show up... or else.

Thinking of this, Luo Bai smiled and asked Natasha, "Did you come to see me today to ask for coffee?"

"Not entirely; there's something else..." Natasha started.

Luo Bai quickly interrupted her, "We can talk about that later. I have something to take care of now. If you want to meet me for coffee, could you help take care of Lorna for the time being? I'll join you after I finish my work."

Natasha was silent for a moment. After a while, she asked, "How long do you need?"

"I'm not sure; it'll take about an hour or more," Luo Bai explained.

Natasha pondered for a moment, then smiled and agreed. "Okay. I think you're young and lack experience with children, so I'll help you. But remember, we have an agreement."

"Of course~~" Luo Bai said with a smile before heading upstairs to continue practicing magic.

This practice lasted the entire day. Little did Natasha Romanoff expect that she had been tricked by Luo Bai into becoming a nanny for a whole day.
