Strongest Mage with the Lust system

Chapter 687  Kacha [Bonus]

”Oh? I donʼt think so. You are still going to be defeated like always.” Tristen scoffed, but his expression wasnʼt as mocking or nonchalant as before.

Vigil gave him a meaningful look. ”This time wonʼt be the same.”

Saying this, he glanced at Lady Verana, ”Youʼve either killed or captured the ones who broke the rules, and I have no objection to it. Now, just make sure none of you break any rule.”

Lady Verana stared at him in silence for a moment before she nodded and said, ”You donʼt need to worry about that.”

Vigil stared at her for a few moments before gesturing to the isolation barrier.

Lady Verana glanced at Tristen and said, ”Remove it.”

Tristen didnʼt hesitate and took out a disk shaped artifact and tapped the center of it. Immediately, the barrier flickered and vanished.

…

The demon kings were frozen in shock for a few moments before they became enraged, especially the horned demon kings, and started massacring every human they saw.

Seeing five demon kings rapidly flying in his direction, Max immediately activated the Phoenix Wings, grabbed Kriss, and rushed in the opposite direction.

Midway, Kriss asked him to put him down, which made him frown, but realizing if he could sneak up on a demon king and behead her, even if she had gone berserk and wasnʼt as aware of her surroundings, he must have a way to escape them too. So, he dropped him into the crowd, and as he watched him through his bloodline sense disappear amidst people, his eyes flickered.

ʼI need a technique like that. Itʼs just too useful, especially to someone like me.ʼ

In the distance, while fighting the demons attacking them, Lily, Emily, and Sera watched him trying to escape the demon kings with anxious looks on their faces.

As she watched him, Emilyʼs body was turning hotter, and the dim golden flicker in the depths of her eyes was becoming brighter. She didnʼt feel her changes, but the demons and humans around her did because she was emitting a lofty and supreme aura that was suppressing them, not letting them use their full power.

Due to this, her speed of killing the demons was increasing. But since humans were also affected, they were also dying rapidly. Many tried calling out to her, but with her current state of mind, she only saw demons she was killing and Max.

…

Since Maxʼs top speed wasnʼt anything impressive when compared to a demon kingʼs normal flight speed, he only managed to flee for half a minute before they caught up to him.

Then, thanks to his bloodline sense, bloodline, and Death Energy, he managed to avoid getting injured for another ten seconds, but then his bloodline energy depleted, and he was surrounded by the demon kings.

In the next few seconds, he gained many severe injuries despite using the Death Energy to defend.

Bang!

Crack!

A punch landed on his chest and broke several of his ribs. He spat out a mouthful of blood, wincing in pain.

Swoosh!

The force had sent him flying back, but he suddenly felt a threat of death and forcefully changed the direction of his body. Immediately, a blade formed of demonic energy flashed by his neck, leaving a small cut. If he hadnʼt twisted his body, his neck wouldʼve been lopped off.

This was one of many sure kill attacks he had managed to evade thanks to his bloodline sense, but he knew he wouldnʼt be able to survive for long if this continued. ʼDamn, am I going to die now?ʼ He thought. Since the human mages were already being overwhelmed, he knew none of them could help him even if they wanted to. His companions werenʼt strong enough to face any of the five demon kings attacking him, so they wouldnʼt be able to save him either.

Wyomin wouldnʼt break the rules to help him, and Alton had already told him to survive for a few minutes. All in all, he was on his own, but without his bloodline energy and mana running out, he was only left with Nascent Energy and small bits of Death Energy his bloodline was refining for him. However, all of it was being used to ensure his survival for a moment more.

ʼFuck!ʼ He suddenly cursed in his mind because he wasnʼt able to dodge a blade, and it pierced his stomach.

ʼIʼm done for, arenʼt I?ʼ He thought, feeling lightheaded due to losing too much blood.

Just then, however, the change he was waiting for happened.

Rumble!

The ground shook and the sky rumbled, throwing everyone off balance.

Just like everyone, he looked in the ear direction and saw a gigantic, golden-colored building rising out of the ground—The War Temple.

The demon kingsʼ grimaced when they saw this, knowing they, or rather, their emperors, had failed to stop the human emperors from establishing it.

The next moment, the five of them simultaneously turned toward Max, ready to finish him off.

Gulp!

Max gulped down the mixture of his blood and saliva noticing this, and nervously chuckled, ”Hey, this fightʼs over. You guys should—

Before he could finish, one of the demon kings attacked.

Shua!

A large, sharp claw made of demonic energy grabbed toward him, aimed to shred him into pieces.

Given the speed of the claw and Maxʼs current state, he wasnʼt able to dodge it even if he saw it coming.

The next instant, the claw was upon him, just a few inches away from killing him.

ʼLetʼs see how strong Nascent Energy is in battle.ʼ He mused and was about to release all of the Nascent Energy. He knew that even if he managed to survive after revealing it, the danger he would face would increase even further, but he couldnʼt simply die either.

However, right then, a grim shout reverberated through the area, ”Retreat!”

The demon kingʼs eyes flashed, but he didnʼt stop. How could he stop when he was only a moment away from killing him?

So, the claw slashed at him.

Kacha!
