Strongest Mage with the Lust system

Chapter 813: Nyra, Envious Ella

Max took the badges from him and turned toward his group before handing one silver badge to Esther and the other to Noah.

”You, Anna, Gene, Rima and Ellie take one room, and Noah, you and this…” Max began speaking when he realized he didnʼt know the name of the woman beside him.

Noah had apparently fallen in love with her when Max was in the Cloud Academy, and though they had not married yet, they were clearly man and woman, and seeing Esther and Anna had no objection to her, they clearly accepted her as a family member.

If he was to be honest, she had impressed him by not leaving Noahʼs side after Ashton crippled him and the tragedy befell the Garfield family.

Although she wasnʼt too beautiful, she had gentle features and was pleasant to look at.

Seeing Max didnʼt know her name, she didnʼt show any displeasure, and his bloodline sense told him she wasnʼt feeling any either.

”Iʼm called Nyra, brother-in-law.” She said, lightly bowing her head in his direction.

Max felt a little awkward but didnʼt show it on his face and nodded before addressing Noah, ”You and Nyra stay in the second room.”

Esther, Anna, Gene, and Esme looked at him with raised eyebrows before looking at Ella, who had her head lowered, a light blush adorning her cheeks.

”You…” Gene pointed at him, clearly angered, but seeing Esme give her a look, she just harrumphed, turned around, and climbed the stairs.

Esther, Rima and Anna did the same. After giving her mother a concerned look, Ellie also went upstairs.

Noah awkwardly nodded at him before taking Nyraʼs hand and heading up too, leaving Max, Esme, and Ella standing there. Oh, right, Ling Han was still here.

Max acted as if he didnʼt sense the awkward atmosphere and glanced at him. ”What is it?”

He had already paid him, and since he had helped them find a place to stay, his work was done, but he was still standing there.

Ling Han waved his hand and took out fifty high-grade mana stones and sent them flying toward him, saying, ”Here, young master. I only charge fifty. The reason I told you it was a hundred was because I wanted to see whether you would be able to afford Breeze Innʼs rent.”

”Oh? I see.” Max nodded, thought for a moment before sending them back toward him, ”I appreciate you telling me this, but since I have already given them to you, just keep them.”

Ling Han didnʼt show much hesitation and put them away before bowing toward him, ”Thank you, young master. Now, please excuse me.”

After he left the inn, Max took Esme and Ella to the room on the first floor. Though the first floorʼs isolation formation should be the weakest out of the three floors, with his bloodline energy, he didnʼt need to worry about anyone spying on them.

After they left, the grey-haired middle-aged man chuckled lightly, ”What a guy! Ai, I wish I was young too.”

…

The room wasnʼt too big but was spacious enough.

A large bed on which three people could sleep comfortably was placed in the middle. On the left side was a table with three chairs, and placed near the right wall were three cultivation mats.

The first thing Max did after entering the room was to conjure an isolation barrier with his bloodline energy.

He then walked over to the bed and flopped on it.

”Nice!”

Feeling the cushiony mattress under him, he couldnʼt help but let out a comfortable groan.

Though he carried a bed in his spatial ring, because everyone else was sleeping on the ground and makeshift beds on the journey, he did the same. The only times he used the bed were when he got intimate with Esme.

Esme smiled seeing this and then looked at Ella and asked, her voice carrying a hint of envy and desire, ”Is it… My Lordʼs?”

Ella blushed. Touching the slight bulge on her abdomen, she shook her head, ”No. Itʼs my late husbandʼs.”

”Oh, I see.” Esme almost sounded relieved, which even she didnʼt notice.

”Iʼm sorry for your loss.” She said, ”If you donʼt mind me asking, how did he die?”

A pained and sad look flashed in Ellaʼs eyes as she recalled the memories of that day and said, ”It was demons. They suddenly appeared in our village and started slaughtering people left and right. Everyone died. If Lord Max hadnʼt come on time, I and Ellie would have died too.”

Esme became silent. Then, after a while, she grabbed her hand and brought her to the bed.

Ignoring Max, they sat down next to each other and started making small talk.

Max smiled wryly.

He knew after realizing Ella was also his woman, Esme was trying to get familiar with her so there wouldnʼt be any awkwardness between them, but she was also doing this to make her dissatisfaction known.

ʼNo matter, after I pamper her, all her dissatisfaction will vanish.ʼ He thought, a lewd smile appearing on his face.

Esme suddenly felt as if she was being eyed by a beast and shivered. Knowing this beast was none other than Max, she blushed, anticipation building within her heart, already knowing he would be giving her a lot more attention in a while to coax her.

After resting for a while, Max stood up, and both Esme and Ella straightened their backs.

Noticing this, Max chuckled, shamelessly saying, ”Relax, ladies. Iʼm going to take a bath first before I take you.”

As soon as he finished, he rushed away, not staying and giving Esme an opportunity to scold him.

Both ladiesʼ faces had become red from embarrassment, and when their gazes met accidentally, they almost melted from shame.

After a while, Ella gathered her courage and said, ”Lord Max seems to like you a lot.”

Esme blushed while a sweet feeling rose in her heart. She really liked hearing this, but quickly regaining her senses, she said, ”Since you are also his woman, Iʼm sure he will like you the same.”

Ella smiled wryly, not believing her because if this were to be the case, he would have taken her too in this past month, but he didnʼt even touch her.

Suddenly, Ellaʼs eyes widened. ʼWait! Am I envious of her?ʼ
