Strongest Mage with the Lust system

Chapter 652  I Want to Drink Your Blood

”Is what you said true? There are several hundred Five Star demons in this horde?”

A High-Stage Four-Star Mage asked in a high-pitched voice, attracting more peopleʼs attention.

Sigh!

Max sighed in his heart, already regretting choosing to speak out loud. He did that so they wouldnʼt take them lightly and lose their lives as a result. But it seemed his words only served to create more panic and bring the peopleʼs morale down, at least, of those who heard this manʼs voice.

His expression not changing a bit and his gaze focused on the demons, he said, ”Itʼs up to you whether you all believe me or not. But no matter what you do, be careful or suffer the consequences.”

”Donʼt listen to him!” Someone shouted.

”He is just a Four Star mage; how can he know their cultivation so precisely?”

”Thatʼs right. He is lying. He must be a traitor who wants to bring our morale down. I say we kill him first–”

Swoosh!

Boom!

Before this last person could finish their sentence, the sound of something piercing air sounded, which was followed by the sound of something exploding.

Everyoneʼs expression changed drastically when they looked in the direction of the man who was speaking because... his head had just exploded.

For a moment, everyone looked at Max, thinking he had killed him, but then the cackle of a demon sounded.

”Keke, how amusing! Do you think we would need human traitorsʼ help to kill you all? Donʼt underestimate us great demons.”

Swoosh! Swoosh!

Right as the voice fell, a group of twenty demons pushed through the people in front and appeared before Maxʼs group.

The one leading the group was a humanoid female demon with hip-length red hair and blood-red eyes. Also, unlike the rest of the demons, she had blood-red scales on her cheek bones.

She gave off a powerful and deadly aura as she swept her gaze across everyone before facing Max, ”I want to drink your blood.”

Swoosh!

Seeing they were targeting Max, everyone except the Fuller Familyʼs group sighed in relief and rushed away, leaving them alone.

The scaly demon looked at the fleeing humans and sneered, ”You wanted to lead these cowards?”

Maxʼs gaze flickered. For a moment he was confused as to why she was targeting him out of all the humans, but when he noticed several demons with similar scales on their cheeks looking in his and some in Seraʼs direction with greed burning in their blood-red eyes, he understood.

”So you get stronger by drinking peopleʼs blood? Especially those with strong bloodlines?”

The scaled woman didnʼt show any surprise and nodded. ”Thatʼs correct. Now, if you let me drink your blood without any resistance, Iʼll consider giving you a painless death; how about it?”

”Haha,” Max chuckled, causing the demon to furrow her brows. ”Did I say something funny?”

Swoosh!

Right as she said this, she disappeared and appeared in front of Max and grabbed toward his neck, her demonic energy turning her hand into a sharp claw.

This demoness was a high-stage Five Star demon, and given her distinct characteristics, she had a special bloodline, which made her stronger than ordinary Five Star demons.

So facing her attack, Max felt a threat. However, he was completely calm as he slashed with the now chipped bone sword that had appeared in his hand the moment he saw her move.

Slash!

The demoness sneered, ”You are too arro–”

Her words were caught in her throat when the sword erupted in crimson flames that had a pinkish tint, right before it clashed with her claw.

Sizzle!

Boom!

Both Max and the demoness were pushed back by the sudden explosion.

Both were unharmed, the only difference was… Max was completely calm, while the demoness had a shocked look on her face that quickly turned into one of terror but also… intense greed.

The next moment, she did something that surprised everyone but Max.

Swoosh!

She turned around and fled.

”Why are you running? Come, have a taste of my blood.” Max shouted in the demon language, startling everyone.

He channeled his mana and mixed some of his bloodline energy, casting the Phoenix Wings two seconds later.

By now, the demoness had disappeared in the crowd, but she was still in the range of his bloodline sense.

”Miss Pauline, lend me a sword.” He said, extending his hand toward the stunned Pauline, who quickly snapped back to her thoughts and gave him her black sword.

”I will be in a while. You guys take care of these demons until then.”

Fwoosh!

Shiing!

Once he was finished speaking, his wings gently flapped, and the sound of a sharp sword cutting through flesh sounded almost at the same time he disappeared.

When they heard the sound, Lily and the High-Stage Five Star mageʼs gaze flashed as they turned their gaze to the demon group.

”How strong!” The High-Stage Five Star mage exclaimed in shock while Lily wore a beautiful smile and a proud expression on her face.

Hearing the mageʼs exclamation, Emily and others followed their gaze and saw the heads of two demons, who were standing closest to the scaled demoness, slowly slide down their necks and fall to the ground.

Thud! Thud!

Just like them, the rest of the demonsʼ eyes widened in shock.

”This… he killed them?” One of the demons muttered in demon language, his voice trembling.

Lily glanced at Pauline and Emily. ”They were the only two Five Star demons apart from that scaled demoness. The rest are just in the Three and Four Star realm.”

Swoosh!

”Letʼs quickly kill them.” Saying this, she rushed toward the demons, a cloud of white mist covering her figure.

When she was ten meters away, the cloud of white mist burst apart and enveloped half of the demons, instantly freezing them into Ice statues, snuffing out their lives.

Seeing this, Pauline donned her full body armor, took out another black longsword, and rushed over, ”Kill!”

Emily, Sera, and the Fullers also rushed at the shocked and panicked demons.
