Strongest Mage with the Lust system

Chapter 711  Expensive [Bonus]

”What is there to know? All nearby kingdoms fell, and now the Green Leaf would be under even more pressure. So, I just want to improve as much as I can.”

Max casually said before asking, ”Canʼt you feel the air is thick with tension now, more than before?”

Martha looked at him silently for a moment before nodding. ”You are right. Itʼs not the time to think about saving the merits.”

Max nodded.

They soon arrived in the transference hall and found the formations leading to the training rooms.

Since Alton wasnʼt there to lead them, they needed to pay war merits before they could use the formations.

The training rooms also had grades, which Max realized after reading the etchings. However, unlike most of the things, they werenʼt divided into nine but just five, from Grade One to Grade Five.

Previously, the room Alton took him to was a grade three training room. Since he had already felt the thick and pure mana in the room, best for Lily and others to cultivate, he decided to rent it, but when he saw how much it cost, he immediately backtracked.

[Grade 3 Training Room]

[Rent For One Day: 10,000 Merits]

[Rent? (Yes/No)]

Currently, he had 39,500 merits left, not enough for even four days. Even if Lily or someone else had 500 left, just four days wouldnʼt be long enough of a period for a good cultivation session.

Then under his womenʼs gaze, he awkwardly walked toward the Grade 2 room and checked its price.

[Grade 2 Training Room]

[Rent For One Day: 4000]

[Rent? (Yes/No)]

Since he was checking, he checked the price of the Grade One room, too.

[Grade 1 Training Room]

[Rent For One Day: 1500]

[Rent? (Yes/No)]

”Ahem, letʼs rent a grade two room. It should be good enough for our needs.” He said, glancing at Lily, Emily, and Sera.

”Just one will be enough for you four?” Martha spoke up before them, ”Sir Max, maybe you donʼt know these rooms are designed for one individual to cultivate. If you four cultivate in there, the effects wouldnʼt be too much better than cultivating in the formation house with high-grade mana stones.”

After a pause, she said, ”If you donʼt have enough merits, I can lend you some.”

”I can lend some too.” Kriss also chimed in. After lending Pauline half, he had 60,000 left, and because he didnʼt buy any countermeasure for the core detonation, he still had them. As for why he didnʼt buy them, well… only he could answer this.

Max declined their good intentions with a smile, ”Thank you, but you donʼt need to.”

He then glanced at Lily and Sera with a meaningful gaze and said, ”Just one room would be enough for us.”

Lily and Sera lowered their heads to hide their blushing faces and muttered in their hearts, ʼScoundrel!ʼ

Though Max didnʼt look at Emily, her heartbeat increased because she also understood what he meant.

ʼHe… he wants to have… s-sex with me too?ʼ She felt her mind go blank. It wasnʼt that she was averse to the idea; she just felt it was just too fast.

Though a storm of emotions raged in her heart, her expression remained the same.

While Kriss seemed oblivious, or maybe acted, Martha raised her brows when she saw Lily and Seraʼs reaction to his words.

Then suddenly thinking of something, she looked at Max in surprise before a hint of something that could very well be described as disgust flashed in her eyes.

”Okay. Have it your way.” Saying this, she walked to another formation that led to a grade two training room, paid the merits, and vanished.

After nodding at him, Kriss also went to a grade two room.

”Come, ladies. We should go too.” Max smiled at the trio before stepping inside the formation. Fortunately for him, the teleportation space was wide enough for them to squeeze into.

After paying merits for a week, he hugged Lily and Emilyʼs waist, pulling them into him, and had Sera hug him from the front.

Shua!

Mana surged out from beneath the formation and into the formation nodes. Zoom~

When he saw the formation etchings flicker, he, for a moment, thought the teleportation would fail. But fortunately for them, that didnʼt happen, and in the next moment, they found themselves standing in a room similar to the one he went with Alton, just smaller in size.

ʼAs expected, mana concentration is low. here compared to the grade three room.ʼ He thought after sending the mana.

”Well, ladies. We are here.” Max said, releasing his hold on Emily and Lilyʼs shapely waist a little reluctantly.

Lily and Emily moved away from him and started looking around the room, but Sera stayed there, hugging him.

Max smiled and was about to pat her back when he suddenly realized the reason she didnʼt let go of him wasnʼt because she was reluctant as he thought but because… she was unconscious.

Worried, he scanned her with his bloodline sense, and when he saw there was nothing wrong with her, he sighed in relief. Swoosh!

Then with a wave of his hand, he brought out the bed and made her lie on it.

Lily and Emily looked over when they noticed him take out the bed. At first they blushed, thinking he was in too much of a hurry, but then they saw unconscious Sera and became worried.

”What happened?” Lily asked,

”There is nothing to worry about. She just couldnʼt handle the sudden shift in space.” Max said, easing their worries. There were many people who would feel nauseous when experiencing teleportation for the first time, and some would fall unconscious just like her.

As Max injected some of the Nascent energy into her body, she quickly regained consciousness and then…

Blergh!

She vomited.

Emily reacted in time and prevented her from making a mess.

After a while, Sera calmed down and looked at them apologetically, ”Sorry, I didnʼt know this would happen.”

”There is nothing to be sorry about. It could happen to anyone.” Emily shook her head, and Max and Lily nodded in agreement, making her feel a little better. Though she was still feeling embarrassed.

Right then,

”Sera, why donʼt you go over there, cultivate and recover while we three get busy?” Max said, pointing to the platform in the corner of the room, large enough for one person to sit on. ---
