Strongest Mage with the Lust system

Chapter 481 Strongest [Calidus Brachium] Yet.

ʼHis horn? It has some power.ʼ It didnʼt take long for Max to figure out the reason behind the feeling of danger.

Once he realised this, he knew he couldnʼt give him time to activate whatever power it had. So, he hurriedly activated [Calidus Brachium] and moved toward him.

Sizzle~!

The crimson fire covered his fist instantly by the time Max appeared in front of Mehak, his wrist and half of his forearm had been enveloped by the fire.

Because the 5000-mana-unit [Calidus Brachium] hadnʼt done any damage to Jackʼs mother, even though he had taken by surprise, he had poured 6500 units of mana into this cast. The only reason he stopped at 6500 was because he couldnʼt pour any more mana. It was his current limit.

ʼI hope itʼll be enough.ʼ Thought Max as he raised his hand and punched at Mehakʼs head. The speed at which his hand moved was too fast to be captured by the naked eye. 

This was true for Belen, who was watching him, but unfortunately, not for Mehak, as he could see his blazing fist inch closer to him.

Just as the punch was only a few inches away from his forehead, a ray of black light shot from his head and collided against it.

BOOM!!

A loud explosion occurred. The air in a few feet radius was obliterated, forming a vacuum. The ground also exploded apart. 

The fighting on the two other battlefields stopped as everyone watched the scene in front of them in astonishment.

A moment later, two figures were blasted in opposite directions.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Thud!

Max was blasted over a hundred meters away before he landed on his feet and slid a few more meters back while Mehak continued for over 150 meters before crashing onto the ground.

Cough!

Max coughed and spat out some blood before standing upright. 

He was a mess. His previously pristine robes were in rags after being burnt and torn. Some of his hair was also burnt, and he had many small injuries all over his body.

Phew!

He exhaled a deep breath, looked at Mehak who was laying motionlessly over 200 meters away and thought,

ʼFortunately, I was prepared or I would be lying on the ground too.ʼ

After catching his breath, he walked over to Mehak, who opened his eyes when he noticed him approach him.

A bitter smile appeared on his burnt face as he said in mosquito like voice, ”I… never thought… my strongest attack would… fail against someone with a weaker cultivation.”

Hearing this, Max sneered, ”You shouldnʼt have overestimated it then.” 

Although he said, the truth was that the attack from his horn wasnʼt at all weaker than his attack. In fact, it was a little stronger than his 6500 [Calidus Brachium]. 

If not for the fact that he had become wary after feeling the danger from his horn and had prepared to cast the [Flame Barrier] in advance, he wouldʼve gotten serious injuries even if he didnʼt die. At that time, it wouldʼve been a piece of cake for Mehak to finish him off, just like he was going to do right now.

Mehak narrowed his eyes and suddenly started laughing.

”Hahaha! You are… right. I…cough! I shouldnʼt have overestimated my bloodline ability. But… if you think… thatʼs enough to kill me… cough! You must be dreaming.”

”Mm?” Maxʼs eyes narrowed, and he suddenly had a premonition.

Some distance away, the two demons and the demoness who was seriously injured and lying on the ground twitching grinned at Emily and Amara.

”You friend is dead.”

Emily and Amara frowned before suddenly Amaraʼs eyes widened and she tried to rush toward Max, but the demon intercepted her. 

Seeing this, she shouted out, ”Master. Watch out! He can recover to his peak form with his awakened hornʼs ability.”

”Damn it!” Max cursed and jumped back. He had depleted almost all of his mana after casting [Calidus Brachium] and the [Flame Barrier]. If he had to fight Mehak, who was at his peak, he was sure to die.

Buzz~!

Just as he jumped back, Mehakʼs horn vibrated and a black mist discharged from it that quickly covered his body. A moment later, the mist vanished and a completely fine Mehak appeared in front of him.

He slowly stood up, looked at Max, who was looking at him warily, and grinned mockingly, ”Werenʼt you going to kill me? Why arenʼt you doing anything now? Scared?”

Max took a deep breath and shook his head. ”If I fear even someone like you, my life would be in vain.”

A murderous glint flashed in Mehakʼs eyes when he heard his disdainful words. He slowly stepped toward him as though he was a predator, stalking his prey and said, 

”If Iʼm not wrong, you shouldnʼt have much mana left, right? How are you going to fight me now? How are you going to kill me?”

Max watched as he inched closer to him and nodded. ”You are right. I donʼt have much mana left to fight you. But since you asked, let me tell you how Iʼm going to kill you.”

Saying this, he suddenly extended his hand and opened his palm, revealing an ordinary-looking talisman. It was one of the two grade-four offensive talismans he had bought to kill Jackʼs parents.

”Iʼm going to use this little trinket on you.” He smiled.

”Hm?” Mehak raised his brows in confusion when he saw the piece of beast skin with some odd markings on it, but a moment later, his pupils constricted and hurriedly retreated.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Seeing this, a sadistic smile appeared on Maxʼs face and he followed him closely. After he determined he wouldnʼt miss, he poured his mana into the talisman and threw it in his direction.

Rumble!

The surrounding mana rumbled and rushed toward the talisman and then.

Swoosh!

A beam of concentrated mana shot at blinding speed toward Mehak.

”Fuck!” Mehakʼs cursed aloud and withdrew a black shield with a horn similar to his sticking out from the middle of it, and covered himself.

BOOM!!!
