Strongest Mage with the Lust system

Chapter 747  Shortsighted

Count Wiley was unaware of his bloodline sense. So, he was shocked to see him react as soon as he took out the communication crystal. He instinctively wanted to escape but stopped himself and sneered, ”You are dead, boy.”

”Lord, Xander, the thunder sword is…”

Shing!

Unfortunately for him, before he could finish the message, the thunder sword pierced his forehead, immediately killing him.

Swoosh!

A moment later, Max appeared beside him and withdrew the sword, his expression dark.

Although Wiley couldnʼt tell everything, he knew just the few words he had spoken would be more than enough for this Xander person to realize Wiley had found, or at least learn the whereabouts of, the Thunder Sword.

Given how badly the Thunder family wanted the Thunder Sword, he would definitely come to the Green Leaf. At that time, it wouldnʼt be difficult for him to find out he has it since many had seen him use it.

He glared at the Wileyʼs corpse that was about to fall and slashed again, beheading him. He didnʼt stop and continued slashing.

Shing! Kacha! Slash!

Only after he had thoroughly dismembered it did he stop and feel his anger abate a little.

”Fuck!” He shouted, letting out his frustration.

He then glanced at Dean, his gaze cold, which made him shudder in fear. Immediately, he bowed and shouted, ”Thank you for saving us, Lord Max. Weʼll be eternally grateful to you.”

Max walked over to him with slow steps.

Dean felt his heart clench, noticing him coming near him. ʼHe wants to kill me too. Fuck you, Wiley!ʼ He cursed, his heart filled with terror. He wanted to flee, but knew it would be futile and would only make him die faster. So, gritting his teeth, he kept his head low, hoping he would spare him after seeing his submission.

”That pig, Rael… He is your son, right?” Max asked, his voice cold. He really wanted to kill him to vent his frustration, but he had already felt a powerful gaze lock onto him when he killed Wiley and knew he could not kill any more humans.

”Huh?” Dean was startled. He knew Max had killed nephew James, and his parents had tried to kill Max but failed when the king mage descended. He didnʼt know Max had enmity with his son Rael too.

”I asked you something.” Max repeated, releasing his aura and pressing it down upon him. Even though his cultivation realm was lower than Deanʼs, his aura was stronger.

Dean immediately snapped back to his senses and nodded, ”Yes, Lord Max. He is my son. I apologize if he had somehow offended you. Iʼll be sure to teach him a lesson on your—”

Max was in no mood to hear his bullshit and interrupted him, ”By the time I return to the Capitol city, he should have broken his engagement with Flavia. Also, he must apologize when he does so. You can choose to ignore me, but do so only if you have King Mages in your family.”

Leaving this threat, he nodded at Fiora before walking back to Leo and flying away.

A while later, Fioraʼs group killed all the remaining demons.

Fiora swept her gaze across her family members, and when she saw how many were alive and how injured they were, she sighed before telling them to heal and recover.

She then glanced at Dean, who seemed to be deep in thought as he looked at Count Wileyʼs corpse.

”You, come here.” She called him over.

Dean promptly went over and respectfully said, ”Yes, Elder Fiora.”

”Tell me whatever you know about him.” She ordered. She had left the city several days before Max arrived in the city and everything happened.

The only reason she knew about his relationship with Flavia was because when she found out her family wanted to capture him or kill him for his bloodline, she had asked for his information, and because she was a high-ranking elder in the family and somewhat related to Flavia, they had informed her Max was also suspected to be the same person who Flavia had gotten closer to in the cloud academy. It was only suspected because Flavia had refused to verify it. Therefore, she had tried her luck when she brought up Flavia earlier, and fortunately, he was the same person. This was why she hadnʼt hesitated to sacrifice Flaviaʼs stepmother.

Now, since they might become relatives, she wanted to know everything she could about him.

Dean didnʼt hesitate and told her everything he knew about him. The only thing he didnʼt mention was the Thunder Sword.

Fiora dismissed him after hearing everything and sighed. ʼHow shortsighted!ʼ

She knew the damage was already done, and even if her family happily allowed Flavia to be with him, their relationship wouldnʼt become good. At best, he would stop seeing them as enemies.

ʼIf they hadnʼt been so blind, our chances of survival would have increased.ʼ She gritted her teeth. She regretted the fact that that woman was running her family and not someone sensible like Mike.

…

Boom!

Swoosh!

Bang!

Rumble!

When Max and Leo were still some distance away from the center of the battlefield, they heard the sounds of battle that came from there and knew the demons had attacked Martha and others.

Without Max saying anything, Leo increased his speed. Though he would have a hard time maintaining his bloodline ability activated, and it would become unstable, he didnʼt care as they werenʼt far from their destination.

When they neared the area and got a clear view of the ongoing battle, they couldnʼt help but become surprised by what they saw.

They had expected Marthaʼs group to be in a similar state as the Arasia and Dalton familiesʼ group had been because, despite the fact that the demons shouldʼve attacked them less than ten minutes ago—far less time than the prolonged battle Arasia and Dalton familiesʼ group had fought for before they went there—the number and average strength of the demons surrounding the center of the battlefield was a few levels higher.

Contrary to their expectations, however, the group was holding themselves well, even though the number of demons attacking them was almost double that of them.

Then their eyes were drawn to the main character there, Martha.

”How strong!”

Leo exclaimed, a hint of envy flashing in his eyes as he watched her use her bloodline ability to massacre the demons while simultaneously helping the human mages.
