Strongest Mage with the Lust system

Chapter 832: What I Say Shall Become the Law

While the tower spirit shook in jubilation and Ling Han looked at it, waiting for the chance to ask it to help his sister, Max’s expression changed drastically.

Swoosh!

Immediately, he disappeared from space, leaving Ling Han and the tower spirit befuddled.

Then, as the tower spirit began to use its weakened senses to see what was happening outside, Ling Han’s expression also changed, realizing the ongoing battle between the monarchs might have implicated the city, and he shouted, ”Young Master, let me out. My sister is still—”

Swoosh!

Before he could finish shouting, he also disappeared from the space and appeared in the inn, now damaged to the point of unrecognition.

He looked outside and saw several other buildings were also damaged.

’Has the defensive formation broken?’

Just as this thought crossed his mind, a voice sounded out throughout the town, ”Defensive formation will completely break in less than a minute. Everyone, save yourselves!”

Shua!

Suddenly panicking upon hearing the grim announcement, he was about to rush away, wanting to save his sister—and if he couldn’t save her, at least die with her—but right then he felt a hand grab his shoulder and heard Max’s voice:

”Point the direction of your house.”

Ling Han pointed toward the northeast, ”There, near the town wall.”

Swoosh!

As soon as he pointed, Ling found himself flying rapidly in the aforementioned direction. Finally, he glanced beside him and saw Max holding him while Esme was holding him as she flew.

Max had a dark expression as he looked in the direction of the ongoing fight.

Just a few moments ago, a part of the defensive formation had broken over Candle’s Inn’s region.

The resulting shockwaves and remnant energy from the attack that broke it had wrought destruction upon the area.

Fortunately, Esme and others were getting ready to leave and were alert. So, when the inn was destroyed, Esme managed to react in time to save Anna and the others.

However, a broken wooden splinter from the destroyed inn had managed to slip past her protection and injured Ella. Thankfully though, her belly was safe—so was the baby.

Still, this made Max enraged. If not for the fact he was too weak to do anything to the battling monarchs, he would have rushed there and killed them.

Taking a deep breath, he looked down and saw people rushing helter-skelter, completely out of their wits, with despair visible in their eyes.

Max closed his eyes. With the demon monarch deliberately targeting the town, most of these people would die. Only those who were at or above Five Star Mage, or had protection, could hope to escape alive.

A few seconds later, the group landed in front of a small wooden house.

Max and Ling Han swayed on their feet for a few moments despite their strong minds. If not for Esme shielding them with her mana as she flew at top speed, their situation would have been worse.

Since Max was stronger than him and he was currently weakened due to losing a significant portion of his blood essence, Max recovered before him and rushed into the house.

Inside the only room, a skinny, delicate young girl lay unconscious in the small bed, her skin pale white. There were black pulsating marks covering her neck, more than half of her face, and her forehead.

When Max saw her, he felt pity for her. But since it was not the time to be emotional, he gently scooped her up in his arms, careful not to exert too much force lest he hurt this fragile, unfortunate girl. Then, he dashed out.

Ling Han sighed in relief when he saw her. Then, Esme grabbed them all, covered them with her mana while Max shielded Ling Han’s younger sister with a bloodline energy barrier, and flew out of the town, in the direction of the inner sectors of the central plains.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Not long after they left the town, the sound of explosions reached their ears. Esme slowed down and turned around.

Max and Ling Han heaved a cold breath when they saw the town had disappeared, replaced by a deep trench, emitting black energy—demon energy.

Esme silently stared at the destroyed town for a while. Then she turned to Max, who looked at her upon noticing her gaze, and said,

”I’m not saying that girl, Amara, or her brother are bad, but it would be ill-advised to—”

”I understand what you want to say.” Max interrupted her, expressionless.

He already knew there was a lot of bad blood between humans and demons, and the chances of them coexisting were abysmally low. What happened just now proved it to him once again—humans and demons could not coexist.

He was sure if it were humans instead of elves who found out Amara, his woman, was a demon, they would have already died.

Anyone with an ounce of brain could tell it wouldn’t be good if he kept his relations with Amara.

However, the problem here was... Amara was already his woman.

Would Max abandon her just because it was dangerous to be associated with her? The answer was a big No.

”I just need to become stronger than everyone else,” Max said, his voice low but deep. ”Then no matter what I do, no one will dare to say anything. Whatever I say will become the Law, whatever I do will become the norm.”

Thump!

As he said this, he exuded a vast and domineering aura, and his figure seemed to become tall as a mountain—not only in Esme’s eyes, but Ling Han’s too. For a moment, they forgot to breathe, and their hearts skipped a beat.

Several other people frantically escaping paused in their tracks because they seemed to sense something, but couldn’t figure out just what they sensed or where it came from. So, they continued moving.

”Mm?”

Miles away from them, the demon monarch and human monarch paused briefly too. Just like the others, however, they couldn’t figure out what that odd feeling was.

A moment later, the Human Monarch recovered and was about to continue his attacks, but the Demon Monarch became paranoid, thinking his act of destroying the town had enraged some powerful human expert. Not daring to stay and continue his fight any longer, he turned around and rushed away.

The Human Monarch didn’t try to stop him because he knew he wouldn’t be able to. Instead, he launched a few powerful attacks to injure him.

In the dark depths of the ocean between human and demon continent, a hazy figure opened their pitch black eyes and a voice sounded out.

”This again... It seems we need to hasten things otherwise... there might be some problems...”
