Strongest Mage with the Lust system

Chapter 453 Disaster For The Garfields [1]

Max stood up and jumped down with Amara before walking toward the academyʼs gate.

”Halt!” 

The guards guarding the gate stopped them and asked for the identification. Max nodded and took out his inner disciple identity token.

”Can I go in now?” He asked, showing them his token.

”Yes, you can.” One of the guards nodded, stepping out of the way to allow him entry. 

Max nodded and walked inside, with Amara following him. 

”Wait!” 

When the guard saw Amara, who didnʼt show any identity, follow Max inside, he prompted to stop her.

Seeing this, Max sighed. If he was a luxuriously dressed noble with many people following him, the guards wouldnʼt have dared to stop him from bringing one unidentified person. 

They would have gone with the second option and informed their commander about it, who would later see if the unidentified person was an enemy. If it wasnʼt, things wouldʼve ended right then and there.

”She is with me.” He said, expressing his intentions to bring her inside.

”Iʼm afraid you have to first id—” The guard shook his head a little apologetically. 

Whoosh!

Max, not wanting to waste time, directly released his three-star aura, which immediately shut him up. Max then eyed him and asked, ”Can she go now?”

Gulp!

The guard gulped nervously and hurriedly nodded. ”Yes, sir. She can.”

”Good.” Max nodded expressionlessly and entered the academy with Amara.

Unbeknownst to Max, just when he had jumped down from the eagle, a man, who was hiding in the shadows a hundred or so meters away from the academy gate, had noticed him. 

The man took out a portrait which had Maxʼs picture drawn in. After confirming that Max was indeed the person in the portrait, he took out a communication crystal and sent a message, ”My lord, that guy has returned. I await further orders.”

The royal capital of the Green Leaf Kingdom…

The royal capital was the most prosperous city of the kingdom, and it was the home base for the four super families, the strongest families of the kingdom.

The strongest among the four was the royal family. The royal family occupied the northern part of the city. 

The other three families, the Hobson, the Rudolf, and the Arasia family, occupied western, southern, and the eastern parts of the city. 

Because there wasnʼt much difference in their overall power, no ranking was assigned to them.

Currently, in one of the Hobson familyʼs mansions, a middle-aged in golden embroidered robes was walking back and forth, with a gloomy expression on his face. He had just received the information that his son, Jakeʼs murderer, had returned to the academy.

Suddenly, the mansionʼs door opened and a beautiful middle-aged woman, who had an oval face, fair and smooth skin and an hourglass figure, walked in. She had shoulder length violet hair and wore a matching violet, one-piece dress.

Seeing her come in, the golden clothed man asked in a cold voice, ”What did your father say? He didnʼt agree, right?”

The violet haired woman nodded, 

”Yeah. He doesnʼt want to form any kind of relationship with your Dalton family until your family break all the relations with Arasia family.”

”Good. Now letʼs return. I canʼt wait to tear that bastard apart.” The man harrumphed.

When the violet-haired woman heard this, her hazel eyes also turned cold, and her aura, which was at the peak three-star realm, burst out in waves, destroying the ground and furniture in the vicinity. She obviously knew who her husband was referring to.

”You found out where that murderer is? And are ready to go against your familyʼs orders?” She asked.

”Yes. He has just returned to the Cloud academy. And what did you just say? Family? Hahaha!” The man burst out in a mocking laughter. 

”The family that tried to hide the information about our only sonʼs death? The family that sent us here on this useless mission just to keep us from taking revenge? If thatʼs the family you are talking about, then you are damn right. I wonʼt fucking obey their orders any longer. If they try to stop me from taking revenge, I wonʼt hesitate to kill them.”

”Good. You are finally acting like a real man.” The violet-haired woman nodded.

When Jack was killed by Max on the way back from the Elvin city, the Dalton family decided not to tell them. 

Why?

It was because the family knew they would want revenge at any cost, but the killer, Max, was an inner disciple of the Cloud academy and the family didnʼt want their relationship with the Cloud academy to get sour? 

Although they could kill Max when he was out of the academy, the family knew the information couldnʼt be hidden from the academy if they investigated. 

So, the family kept them in dark and sent them here to ʼdiscussʼ the possibility of strengthening the relationship between the two families and they were kept busy here for one reason or another for over a month.

If their subordinated hadnʼt accidentally found out about Jakeʼs death and didnʼt them, they wouldʼve been in the dark even now.

”Letʼs go.”

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Three figures appeared in front of the Garfield mansion in the Claymore town.

In the lead was a silver-masked man. On his left was an amiable looking middle-aged man with silver eyes and hair, Count Wiley, and on the right was a man in golden robes, Dean Dalton, Daltonʼs familyʼs current head.

They exchanged glances before the silver-masked man threw a black disk in the sky above the mansion.

Weng~!

A wave of transparent energy erupted out from the disk and enveloped the entire mansion without anyone realizing.

They then walked inside the mansion. The guards guarding the gates tried to stop them, but the masked man waved his hand lightly and two guards fell to the ground, dead.

The strange thing was that they didnʼt have any sign of injury. 

Wiley and Dean exchanged a glance between them and both could see fear visible in each otherʼs eyes.

They finally understood why this man was called the silver masked ghost. His method of killing was akin to ghosts.

The trio strolled all the way to the main residence without any hitch. Everyone who saw them was soundlessly killed.

”Call him out!” The masked man ordered.

Count Wileyʼs expression darkened at this, but he still obeyed and shouted, ”Ashton, come out? Look, who is here to visit?”

His voice reverberated throughout the mansion, and everyone who was still alive heard it.

When Ashton, who was in his study sorting out some papers, heard it, his expression turned ugly. He muttered in a desolate voice, ”So, this day has finally come?”
