Strongest Mage with the Lust system

Chapter 388 Iʼll Burn The World For You

”Hehe. This bloodline is too amazing. Iʼve many spells of darkness element in my mind. I wonʼt have to worry about spells in the future.” Leticia proudly announced.

”Thatʼs really amazing.” Max nodded. Inwardly, he was very surprised.

Even the system didnʼt have any darkness elemental spells. This signified how rare they were since a supreme mage like the systemʼs creator couldnʼt find any in all his life. But her bloodline gave her more than one such spell. Ignoring everything else, just this point made her bloodline extraordinary.

Belen only nodded. She had too many shocks and surprises today, and all that almost made her lose her mind.

After that, Max kept Leticia and Belen company for one more hour. Then, under Leticiaʼs pleading gaze, he returned to his room.

Knock! Knock!

He knocked on the door.

Silent~

Even after he waited for a good while, the door didnʼt open.

ʼIs she asleep already?ʼ He thought and then smile wryly. ʼWell, itʼs past midnight already.ʼ

ʼSigh, I shouldʼve stayed at Belenʼs.ʼ He sighed before knocking the door once again.

Creak~

As soon as he knocked, the door opened and Anna, wearing a sulking expression, appeared in front of him.

”What took you so long?” She asked snappily.

ʼAhh, now I understand what those married men always complained about.ʼ He thought.

”Nothing. The Elder has assigned me a special mission. We are just discussing the details because Iʼve to depart tomorrow.” Max said tiredly while entering the room.

Anna was prepared to scold him a little to vent her frustration, but when she heard he would go away tomorrow, her expression changed.

Closing the door, she ran after him and angrily asked, ”What do you mean? You just returned from the mission. You need to rest for a few days at least. How could that Elder assign you another mission?”

”I donʼt know why she picked me, but the mission is very important and the reward is quite high. So, I accepted it. Okay, let me take a bath first. Then we will talk.” Max said and quickly entered the bathroom before Anna come near him.

He didnʼt want to go near Anna before he washed off Belenʼs and Leticiaʼs scent from his body. After everything that happened, he forgot to take a bath before returning.

”Oh-okay.” Anna nodded before going back to sit on the bed and murmured, ”So, this Elder is really a woman.”

…

After a few minutes, Max came out wearing a loose night robe and flopped beside Anna.

Anna looked at him in a daze. Maybe because he just took a bath, he seemed more handsome to her.

”Do I look handsome?” Max teasingly asked.

Hearing this, she snapped out of it, and her face reddened slightly in embarrassment. She snorted softly and uttered a cute ʼHmphʼ sound before asking, ”Whatʼs the mission and couldnʼt you stay and rest for a few days more before going?” Worry and reluctance to part with him were written all over her lovely face.

Max gently caressed her face with his right and apologetically said, ”I also want to spend more time with you, but the mission is urgent. So, I have no choice to depart tomorrow.”

Hearing this, Annaʼs eyes became moist, but she didnʼt ask him to stay again. ”Mhm, I understand. But you didnʼt tell me, whatʼs the mission and why is it so urgent?”

ʼWhatʼs the mission?ʼ Max thought for a moment before saying, ”Although Iʼm not allowed to share the mission details since itʼs a secret mission, I can tell you, but you have to promise not to tell anyone. If the Elder finds out I told you about it, Iʼll be in trouble.”

Hearing that he was willing to tell her even though he was forbidden from doing so, Anna felt help and vigorously nodded. ”I wonʼt tell anybody.”

Max smiled lightly and said, ”The Elder had buried some treasure a few years ago in a forest a few thousand miles away from here because she was being chased by her enemies. She canʼt go out herself because those people are still keeping tabs on her through their connections. Therefore, she asked me to bring her that treasure since she trusts me for some reason.”

”Oh! What kind of treasure is it?” Anna curiously asked.

”Well, I donʼt know that. Iʼll know after I find it.” Max said.

”Hmm.” Anna went silent for a while before she said in her lovely and gentle voice, ”Since you have to go, you can go, but remember to take care of yourself and watch out for her enemies. Maybe they already know about your meeting with her and guessed her motives.”

”Donʼt worry. The Elder ensured they wonʼt suspect me and Iʼll be careful too.” Max said. He was a little apologetic for lying to her, but he couldnʼt tell the truth since she would never allow him to go. Moreover, he would have to tell her all about the system and all. It would be troublesome.

”Mhm.” Anna nodded before she moved her body and put her head on his chest, her hands circling his shoulders.

”Please return as soon as possible. I… Iʼll miss you…” she softly said.

Max took a deep whiff of her fragrant scent before his hands held her waist, lifted her from the bed, and made her lie on him. Her legs were on his legs, her crotch right above his, and her upper body on his chest.

”Ah~ What are you doing…?” Anna cried out in alarm. She thought he wanted to… take her.

”Donʼt worry. I wonʼt do anything. I just want to feel your bodyʼs warmth since I wonʼt be able to feel it for a long while.” Max said, squeezing her tight against his chest.

Anna stopped squirming when she heard this. After a long while, when she thought Max was asleep, she murmured in a low voice, tears pouring out of her eyes, ”Little Max, I know you love me as a woman and even if I were to agree, our relationship wonʼt be accepted by anyone. Weʼll treated with scorn.”

”If we love one another, it doesnʼt matter what the world thinks. If the world tried to stop us, Iʼll just BURN IT DOWN.”
