Strongest Mage with the Lust system

Chapter 515  Heading for the battlefield

”Thatʼs right. They are in the two-star realm, too. So, these will be help—” Max nodded. However, before he could finish speaking, Emily interrupted him.

”Okay. Iʼm going to take care of a few things. Iʼll meet you at the city gate in half an hour. Donʼt be late.”

Whoosh!

After saying her piece, she rushed away, disappearing from his sight in just a moment.

”Whatʼs up with her?”

He muttered, ”Why does it feel she is angry with me? Isnʼt having a harem a common thing in this world?”

Deciding not to bother himself with this for the time being, he shrugged and turned to Anna and others.

”Anna, Leticia, Belen, Rima and Maria, here catch it.” He said and threw a ghost spirit fruit toward each of them.

Everyone caught it and Leticia asked, ”Is this a spirit fruit?”

”Yeah. Unlike the ones I gave you last time, these can only be used in the two-star realm, so you donʼt need to save it for later.” Max smiled and then added, ”When you eat them, try your best to digest as much of its essence as you can. Itʼll help you strengthen your core, refine and purify your mana, and increase your cultivation realm.”

”Really? It can refine and purify our mana?” Rima asked, surprised. After staying in the Ninam city all this time, she knew elves could nurture many types of spirit fruits. And as Ariaʼs disciple, she didnʼt lack spirit fruits. She had eaten a few to reach peak two-star.

But the spirit fruits that could refine and purify oneʼs energy were rare, even for her, because they were too difficult to grow and nurture compared to others.

So, she was naturally surprised when she saw him give them five of such fruits in one go.

”Yes, it can.” Max nodded.

”Thatʼs amazing. With this fruit, I should be able to refine all my two-star mana to the three-star level. And since it can strengthen the core too, my foundation wonʼt be weak.” She said, excited.

Her master had told her she only needed to enhance all of her mana to the three-star level and that she would help her reconstruct her core.

ʼThatʼs great. Now, by the time he returns from the battlefield, I should already be a three-star mage and can accompany him wherever he goes.ʼ

She thought and could barely stop herself from rushing off to her cultivation site to consume the fruit and cultivate.

Max, noticing her excitement, smiled, ”Itʼs alright. You go and culti

—”

”No. Iʼll see you off,” Rima cut him off. She wanted to be with him for as long as she could.

Hearing this, a smile appeared on Maxʼs face and nodded, ”Alright.”

Anna, Leticia and Belen were also happy to receive the fruit and quickly stored them in their wooden medicine boxes before storing them.

Maria, however, looked at the fruit in hand with a concerned look. From their conversation, she knew this little fruit was something very precious.

Anna, who was near her, noticed that she hadnʼt stored it away and asked, ”What is it, Maria? Why arenʼt you putting it away?”

Maria hesitated and then said, ”Mm? Big sis, this is something precious. I donʼt want to waste it on myself since I donʼt have much talent for cultivation.”

”Shhh!” Anna put her finger on her lips and shushed her, which made Maria panic, thinking that she had made some mistake.

”Donʼt say that in front of him or he will be angry.” Anna said, while giggling inwardly, ʼHehe, she is so fun to tease.ʼ

”But—”

”No buts. Itʼs something he gave to you, so use it. Donʼt think if itʼs precious or worthless, alright?” She said.

Maria glanced at Max before nodding. ”I understand.” She then put away the fruit while vowing to use it well and become stronger.

A while later, they arrived at the Garfield mansion. It took a few minutes for Max to bid his step mothers, Garima, old granny and Gene farewell. Amelia asked him to be back soon and fulfill his promise to Ashton.

”Donʼt worry. Iʼll be back in two weeks.” Max reassured her.

Then Esther walked over, looked into his eyes and said, ”Please keep Emily safe.”

”I will.” Max nodded.

”Alright. Iʼll take my leave now. Take care of yourselves and miss Garima and granny, please make sure everyone is safe if anything unexpected happens.”

”Donʼt worry. You just take care of yourself and remember to never underestimate you enemy no matter how weak they seem to you. Also, be wary of other humans too.”

Old granny advised.

”Understood.” Max nodded and left the mansion under Annaʼs and othersʼ worried gazes.

When he arrived at the city gates, Emily, Ryan and ten Elvin warriors were waiting for him.

”Ready?” Ryan asked.

”Yes.”

”Alright.” Ryan nodded and looked at the Elves. ”He will be your leader for this outing. You are to listen and obey to his commands.”

The elves seemed displeased by this, especially the three standing at the front, but nodded. ”Yes, lord commander.”

Ryan then looked at him and said in a serious tone,

”Seven of them are peak three-star mages, while the remaining three are in the early-stage four-star realm. And you are their leader. So, itʼs your responsibility to bring them back alive and well.”

”I understand.” Max nodded and suddenly felt an invisible pressure in his heart. For a moment, he wanted to leave alone so he wonʼt need to be responsible for them, but he knew he needed them if he wanted to earn enough points to buy the [Drop of life] for his father and healing medicine for the old granny.

Taking a deep breath, he bowed toward him, ”Thank you for all your help, uncle.” With the war on their heads, he knew the Ninam city didnʼt have many peak three-star mages to spare, not to mention three four-star ones.

But even then, he got ten of them. So, he was naturally moved.

”Tch! You arenʼt that repulsive, heh? Now, go,” Ryan joked while flicking a storage ring at him and then vanished.

Max scanned the storage ring, and a pleasantly surprised expression appeared on his face.
