Strongest Mage with the Lust system

Chapter 740  A Coward? [Bonus]

On the other side, Vigil, Yshoy, Luen, and others had grim expressions on their faces. However, none of them moved and silently watched everything.

The moment Azaroth had revealed his domain, they had lost the slight advantage they had. Earlier, if they wanted to kill Max, the battle would have broken out, and both sides would have suffered equally. But now, with Azarothʼs addition, they knew their side would suffer more losses and might even be completely annihilated.

…

On the ground, apart from Martha, almost no one knew Azaroth had employed his aura domain, including Max. They all thought he had used his aura sphere to stop and contain the demon kings.

While the humans sighed in relief and started fighting with newfound hope, the demons became enraged, and someone shouted.

”So what if our kings canʼt come down right now? We are more than enough to slaughter all these ants.”

Boom!

Bang!

Boom!

Immediately, the battles became even more violent, and the number of humans falling each moment increased.

Just as the demon had said, they still had a massive number advantage and could easily kill all the humans. It was just a matter of time.

Not to mention…

Max glanced in the direction the two demon kings were, his expression solemn. ʼThere are still those two.ʼ

With those two here, he wouldnʼt be able to go all out, killing the demons, gaining war merits, and helping the human side have an easier time.

Just when he was worrying about it, his eyes narrowed because he saw an old man, in golden brocade robes similar to Azarothʼs, flying in the direction of the rampaging demon kings.

He was far from him, so he couldnʼt gauge his cultivation level, but his eyes lit up because he hadnʼt seen this old man, who should be from the Williams family based on his clothing, in Marthaʼs group. This meant he came with Azaroth, and seeing how he was flying toward them without any fear, he should be a king mage too.

Right at that instant, he also noticed several more people, all dressed in similar clothes to Azaroth, had appeared throughout the battlefield where the strongest demons were. He watched them and realized although they werenʼt king mages, they were very strong, almost as strong as Martha.

Their addition made the situation a little easier for humans, but they were still at an overwhelming disadvantage.

He wasnʼt sure exactly how many, but upwards of fifty thousand, nearing one hundred thousand, people had died in these two hours. This number was almost three-tenths of total human mages. This meant if Azaroth couldnʼt kill the demon kings soon and help them, in just over five hours, all humans would be dead if things proceeded as they were.

Max took a deep breath and watched as the old man arrived before the demon kings and immediately attacked.

Two Maxʼs surprise, in just a few moments, he completely and effortlessly dominated them before blasting them into smithereens.

Then with a wave of his hand, he stored their demon cores and turned around before looking in his direction for a brief moment.

Then, after sweeping his gaze across the battlefield, he flew up and entered Azarothʼs domain.

Max frowned at this, thinking he should have killed a few thousand demons at the very least before going up. It was not like Azaroth needed…

Just as this thought crossed his mind, he noticed the domain was no longer transparent and had become opaque, which made him frown.

ʼIs something wrong?ʼ

After a moment, he exhaled deeply and took off his mask. Then his figure flashed around, and a few moments later, all the Three Star demons were lying on the ground, dead.

Swoosh!

Then, Fire Wings materialized on his back, and he disappeared from the place, leaving the group of stunned Three Star mages.

”He... is a coward.” Someone spat out in disgust. If Max had heard this, he would have staggered on his feet. But he wouldnʼt have been angry because if he was in this guyʼs place and realized someone stronger was hiding amongst them, he would have also thought he was a cowardly person.

”I donʼt think he is.” A female mage muttered, her eyes flashing.

”If he is not a coward, then what is he?” The one who spoke first asked angrily.

”If Iʼm not wrong, he was one of the Kingslayer duo everyone was talking about earlier.” The female mage said.

”So what if he was? He is still a… Wait!” Suddenly his eyes widened and his expression became dark, ”Wasnʼt it him who lured those two demon kings toward that large group so he could escape?”

Although they were far from the place where the crowd Max sacrificed to escape was, they had still noticed that event.

”Not only is he a cowardly man, he is also very ruthless.”

The female mage frowned, ”What would you have done if you were in his place? Let the demon kings kill you?”

…

Swoosh! Swoosh!

Shing!

Puchi!

Max had taken out the Thunder Sword and was rapidly killing every demon he came across, be they Three Star or Five Star demons.

On the battlefield, he didnʼt need to worry about not having enough Death Energy which he was using to kill them. The only thing worrying him was that, albeit slowly, his Nascent Energy was being used to protect his mana veins, and sometimes, he had to use his mana and bloodline energy too. Although he still had two and a half mana crystals and quite a bit of mana stones left, he knew they wouldnʼt last him the remaining twenty-eight hours.

…

Soon five hours passed, and Max had used one third of his Nascent Energy. He had also completely exhausted his mana and bloodline energy one time and had to recover them using the mana crystals.

Ha! Huff! Hah!

Currently, he was standing amongst over a hundred demon corpses, heaving deep breaths. Although he only had a dozen or so slightly tough battles, the continuous blitz fighting for five hours was starting to take a toll on him. If not for his peak-level two [Barbarian God Physique], he would have been too exhausted to fight by now and had to take a rest.
