Strongest Mage with the Lust system

Chapter 668  Sudden Change

Martha and the young assassin from the Martell family were the first to notice him leave their formation and rush toward the demons like a madman.

”Whatʼs he doing?” She murmured in confusion.

Then suddenly, she noticed over a dozen powerful auras rushing in their, or more accurately, Maxʼs direction with her divine sense, and her eyes widened in realization.

ʼThey want to kill him, and... Lady Wyomin ordered us all to fight together to help him.ʼ

Unexpectedly, instead of becoming angry, her eyes flashed with interest.

ʼLet me see whatʼs so special about you that makes such strong people take interest in you.ʼ She thought as her long spear appeared in her hand and her mana flared.

”You four, go over and do your best to help those three women and the Fullers.”

Swoosh!

Saying this, she activated her movement spell and flew into the sky before rushing in Maxʼs direction.

”Lady Martha!” Armand shouted, wanting to follow her, but the other three stopped him. ”Didnʼt you hear what she ordered us to do?”

”But…”

”No buts.”

People from the three noble families frowned when they saw Martha leave after him.

”What are they doing? Arenʼt they worried Lady Wyomin would punish them for leaving without permission like this?” The man from the Seidel familyʼs trio muttered.

But then he and others also sensed the several powerful auras rapidly approaching, which sent shivers down their spines.

Just when they were starting to panic, the auras stopped, causing them to sigh in relief.

Then the man sneered, ”How courageous! He went to stop them.”

His female companion didnʼt comment and just got ready to fight.

In the distance, the young man from the Martell family glanced in Maxʼs direction, his gaze flickering in surprise and thought.

…

Swoosh!

Max appeared in front of the fifteen peak Five Star demons and attacked them with fire arrows that were too weak to hurt even a peak Four Star demon, let alone them.

However, he was just attracting their attention, which he realized he didnʼt need to because the moment they saw him, they had already stopped and were looking at him with greedy looks.

”Keke, isnʼt this the guy we are supposed to kill?” One of the demons asked,

”He is.” Another said, ”How about you guys back off and let me kill him? Iʼll be sure to share my rewards with you–”

Swoosh! Swoosh!

Even as they were saying this, some of them rushed at him, wanting to kill him before others could and get the rewards the Emperor demons promised them.

However…

Swoosh!

Splurt!

In the next moment, however, everyone froze in place because Max had sliced the fastest demon in two, vertically.

Shing!

Flicking the thunder sword to get rid of the blood, he twisted his neck and grinned at them.

”Why did you stop? Come, take my head.”

In the distance, Martha saw this scene, and her eyes widened in shock.

She could tell the demon he just cut into two was stronger than the peak Five Star demons she killed last time.

Although she could also kill that demon, she would have to use at least 80–90% of her full strength. He, however, killed it so effortlessly and so swiftly. It was as if it wasnʼt a peak Five Star demon, almost a Six Star threat, but a weak, helpless sheep.

ʼHow can he be this strong?ʼ She wondered, taking a deep breath to suppress her roiling emotions.

The demons also calmed down quickly, but their expression remained grave.

”Empress Qumo is right. You canʼt be allowed to live.” A female demon said, ”Everyone, letʼs work together and–”

”Watch out!”

Swoosh!

Before she could finish speaking, Maxʼs wings flapped, and he appeared in front of her and swung his sword at her.

The demoness was ready and immediately took out a black shield and poured her demonic energy into it, causing a black mist to cover it.

”Iʼm not like that idiot–”

Feeling safe, she sneered, but words stuck in her throat, and a horrified expression appeared on her face when she saw the sword, covered in the grayish pink energy, effortlessly slice her lifebound shield in two before continuing toward her.

”NOOOO!!”

A horrified scream escaped her lips as the sword sliced through her chest, cutting her in two.

Swoosh!

Bang!

Boom!

Before the slash even completed, his wings flapped and Max retreated, dodging several attacks launched at him.

”Ahhh! You bastard! You killed me!” The demonessʼ shrieks echoed. Despite her body being cut into two along with her heart, she hadnʼt died yet.

”Kill him! Kill him now! I want to see him die! Hurry–”

Bang!

Before she could finish, a hammer smashed onto her head, crushing it into meat paste and silencing her hysterical cries.

”You return to the demon godʼs embrace. Weʼll take care of him.” The demon, who had killed her, said, glaring at Max with intense killing intent but also fear.

Maxʼs expression fell when he saw him kill the demoness. Since it killed her, he wouldnʼt get her death energy.

ʼI shouldʼve cut her head off.ʼ He sighed in regret.

ʼItʼs alright. There are more than enough left.ʼ

He thought, tightening his grip on the Thunder sword and carefully pulling on more Death Energy. …

Up in the sky, the demon emperorsʼ faces were dark, while Alton and Wyomin had a look of shock.

”How?! How!” The demoness, Empress Qumo, roared in rage. Wyomin didnʼt stop her from shouting because she had already created a water bubble around them, isolating them from the outside world.

”Why can he use that energy so freely now? Why?!” Empress Qumo continued to rage.

Just like her and the other demon emperor, Wyomin and Alton also had the same question in their minds.

ʼDid he purposely harm himself when he used it last time? To deceive us?ʼ Wyomin wondered.

ʼThis is getting interesting.ʼ Alton thought, an imperceptible smile appearing on his face.

Suddenly, his brows shot up, and he shouted.

”HOW DARE YOU!!”
