Strongest Mage with the Lust system

Chapter 403 A Princess Who Is Not Respected

Amara glanced at Max and indifferently said, ”He is my new human slave who I found wandering around here. What? You have a problem with that?”

”N-No, young lady. I donʼt have any problem.” The demon hurriedly shook his head before saying, ”Please follow me, young lady. Iʼll take you to the elders. Iʼve already informed them about you.”

Whoosh!

Saying this, he flapped his wings and flew toward the exit of the forest. Amara was about to follow him when she suddenly remembered that Max couldnʼt fly.

She then extended her hand toward him. Max thought she was asking him to hold her hand while they flew.

Just as he was about to grab her hand, a wave of demon energy burst out of Amaraʼs hand. It turned into a giant claw, which grabbed Max before lifting him up.

A light smile played on her blood-red lips and she softly whispered, ”I apologise, Master, but we have to play our roles properly.”

Max looked into her eyes without saying anything for a moment. He then suddenly smiled at her. ”Donʼt worry. I understand.”

Seeing his smile, Amaraʼs heart palpitated.

”T-Thank you for your understanding, master.” She uneasily said before flying after the demon.

Since their sons died while accompanying her and they were here to look for her, she had to meet them and explain what happened.

It didnʼt take them long before they arrived at the exit of the forest. Keritch, Seriath and their underlings had already gathered here and were waiting for Amara.

Seeing her fly over, everyone let out a breath of relief.

Whoosh!

Amara and the demon landed in front of them. Everyone except Keritch and Seriath, who slightly bowed, went on one knee and greeted her, ”Greetings, young lady Amara. We are glad you are safe.”

Amara didnʼt even look in their direction and smiled at Keritch and Seriath. ”It seems Iʼm not worthy enough in your eyes, right?”

”Mm? What do you mean, young lady?” Seriath asked with a confused look.

”You didnʼt understand, huh?” Amara raised her brows. She then shifted her gaze to Keritch and asked, ”How about you, elder Keritch? You must know what Iʼm talking about, right?”

Keritch flinched when he heard her question. He seemed to know what she meant, but he acted oblivious and said apologetically, ”I apologise, young lady, but I also donʼt know what did you mean.”

”Heh. Thatʼs surprising, considering you are famous for your intelligence.” Amara mockingly said. She then pointed to the other demons who were kneeling on one knee and asked, ”Can anyone of you tell me what they are doing and why are they doing, elder Seriath?”

Seriath glanced at them and answered, ”They are kneeling to you because itʼs the tribeʼs rule to salute their superior by kneeling on one knee.”

”Thatʼs right. Then tell me, when you meet my siblings, for example, Osmont, do you kneel to him?”

Hearing this, Seriath also understood what she was hinting at and his expression constricted, but he still answered, ”Yes. I do.”

”Good.” Amaraʼs expression turned cold as she asked, ”So, is it right for me to think that you two donʼt think Iʼm worthy enough for you to kneel when you see me?”

”N-No. Thatʼs not it, young lady. I just… um, forgot. Please forgive me.” Seriath said, but he still didnʼt bow to her. The same was the case for Keritch. He only apologised but didnʼt bow.

”I see. I understand.” Amara laughed, but everyone could feel she was very angry right now.

Flap!

She then flapped her wings and flew away, no intending to talk to them anymore. They also didnʼt try to stop her seeing she was angry.

After she vanished on the horizon, Seriath glance at Keritch and asked, ”What was that about? Why she was suddenly acting so high and mighty?”

”No clue. But she left without telling us anything about how our sons died.” Keritch said with a frown.

”Thatʼs right. Could it be that she wanted to avoid our questioning by acting angry with that excuse?” Seriath asked.

”Your speculation might be correct, my lord.” The demon who brought Amara back spoke at this moment.

”Oh? Why do you think so?” Seriath asked with interest. He always loved when he could find the answer, while Keritch couldnʼt.

The demon cleared his throat and said, ”My lord. You must have seen that young lady Amara wasnʼt alone, right?”

”Yes. I wanted to ask where she found that filthy two-star human, but she didnʼt give me the chance.” Seriath nodded and then asked, ”But how does that human relate to my speculation?”

”My lord. When the young lady come out of the tribe, only young lord Damon and young lord Rager accompanied her. However, both of them have died while she is unscathed and has an unknown human with her. Isnʼt it strange?”

”Moreover, when I tried asking her about him, she said she was her new slave and she found him in the forest, but why would a human appear here? Shouldnʼt he be in his pasture?” The demon explained his doubt.

”So, you are saying he could be behind our sonsʼ death? That two-star weakling who my son Damon could kill many times over in a second?” Seriath snorted, not believing Maxʼs involvement.

”I donʼt know about the human, but there is really something amiss with her. She definitely had something she didnʼt want us to find out. Thatʼs why she pretended to be angry and went away without giving us an explanation about the situation.” Keritch said.

”Perhaps she was really angry? After all, she is the branch leaderʼs daughter and must have felt humiliated when we didnʼt kneel to her.” Seriath said.

”Do you believe what you are saying? Which elder kneels to her in the tribe? No one. Have you ever heard that she got angry at any of them?” Keritch asked.

”Hmm. You have a point. But itʼs all speculation in the end. We can only find the truth after asking her.” Seriath said. He then flapped his wings and flew in the tribeʼs direction.

Keritch and other demons also flew after him.

…

After Amara and Max flew a few miles away, Max looked at her and asked, ”Whatʼs your status in your tribe?”

”The current branch leader, who is also an elder, albeit an ordinary one, in the main tribe, is my father.” She indifferently replied.

”Branch leader, huh? How strong is he?” Max curiously asked.

”He is a high stage king-ranked demon. He is the strongest in the tribe.” Amara replied.

Hearing this, Max was surprised. Her branch tribe was as strong if not stronger than the Green leaf kingdom and it was only an insignificant branch considering her father was only an ordinary elder in the main branch. So, how strong would the main branch be?

ʼI have to remain low key while Iʼm in her tribe. If not, I wouldnʼt even know how I died.ʼ He made a mental note. Although he had the system who used to be a supreme mage, he wasnʼt sure if it could save him from a king ranked demon given its current weakened state.
