Strongest Mage with the Lust system

Chapter 765 Curious Rose

Chapter 765  Curious Rose

Disregarding several king mages' hostile gazes locked onto him, he looked Oliver in the eyes and calmly said, "You know, if your babysitter isn't here right now, I can kill you at this moment."

Max's voice was calm, and he didn't reveal his killing intent either, but Oliver's heart skipped a beat and chills went down his spine when he heard his words, and he subconsciously took a step back.

He knew his babysitter, his father, most likely had already left after seeing their plan fail. This meant if he really lost his reason, he could really kill him. If it was before he saw him effortlessly take a mid-stage king mage's—Zenovia's—attack like it was nothing, he wouldn't have thought this because there were five king mages, two of whom were peak kings, in his group. But now, he doubted they could save him, especially when he was standing so close to him.

The group's king mages' expression fell when they heard this, and they released their aura threateningly, but since they didn't dare to try to suppress him with it, it was useless as Max completely ignored them.

Other people in the hall, who heard Max's words, looked at him in awe, once again impressed by his guts. After all, he was threatening to kill someone from a sovereign force, and this someone seemed to have a high status in it, no less. Until they saw Oliver's expression become one of terror as he stepped back, his body trembling, they were feeling he was way over in his head, but when they saw Oliver's reaction, their awe turned into shock, and a question came into their minds.

'Just who is this guy?'

…

Seeing Oliver's reaction, the kings' expressions darkened, and they were about to interject, not wanting to let him continue and make a fool of Oliver and, worse, give him a heart demon, though from his expression, they could see he had already developed one, but to their surprise and relief, Max didn't say anything else and instead sidestepped them before walking away, his hands behind his back, looking completely relaxed.

A moment after he disappeared, Oliver regained his senses, and when he saw the weird gazes directed toward him, he felt extremely humiliated, and his killing intent overflowed.

"He has to die. He has to die no matter what." He hissed through gritted teeth.

…

Unknown to Max and everyone else, there were four emperors in the hall, floating near the ceiling inside an invisible isolation formation. These four were Wyomin, Rose, Alton, and Julius.

Among them, Rose wore an astonished look, Wyomin was expressionless, Alton looked almost smug, while Julius' expression mirrored his son's, incomparably ugly and dark.

Rose was already shocked to see Max's prowess when he fought Oliver, but after seeing how, just less than a month later, he was able to fight king mages too, without suffering any major disadvantage, her shock reached new heights.

'Why is this child so strong, and how come he is cultivating so fast?' He couldn't help but be curious. At the same time, she thought her disciple's luck was good to have become his woman when he had just started cultivating.

'If only I could help her balance her fire and ice elemental and awaken her bloodline, she would be a perfect match for him and wouldn't be left behind as he continues to become stronger.' She thought, sighing. Then, she suddenly froze before frowning, surprised by her own thoughts. 'Why do I believe he will continue to become stronger?'

She didn't know much about Max. She didn't ask Lily because she felt embarrassed about it given how she had looked down upon Max in the past and always told her not to think about him too much. Therefore, she had tried asking Wyomin since she seemed to be closer to him given how she was training his women upon his request, but Wyomin didn't tell her anything, leaving her guessing.

Therefore, logically, she shouldn't even think he could progress at the same pace, let alone believe it as though it was a fact. Hence, she was surprised.

Though not as much as her, Wyomin was also surprised by the drastic improvement in his body refinement and cultivation.

Unlike them, Alton wasn't as surprised and was looking at Julius with a smug and provocative look on his face. Clearly, he knew what happened just now was Julius' plan, but Max's sudden improvements and control over his temper spoiled it. Since he didn't like Julius' arrogant personality to begin with, he was having fun provoking him.

His expression, no doubt, incensed Julius, but he only glared at him and hurrumphed before leaving the place. He was feeling very frustrated right now, not only because Max's speed of progress was simply astounding, but also because he hadn't expected Wyomin and Alton would be supporting him. If it was just Wyomin, he wouldn't have minded it much, but Alton… He was another case altogether. Rothchild family wasn't something he could carelessly provoke, after all.

After he left, Wyomin also left after nodding at Rose and Alton. Alton was about to leave too when Rose spoke up, "Sir Alton, if you don't mind, can you tell me what you know about that child, Maxwell?" "Oh?" Alton curiously looked at her before asking, "You aren't familiar with him?"

Rose shook her head in response, which put a strange expression on Alton's face. "How strange! Given how your disciple is his woman, you should know the most about him. Hmm, let's see. He wasn't outstanding when you met him and then stopped paying him attention. Is that right?"

Rose's expression didn't fluctuate as she nodded, "You are right."

"Alright. Let me tell you what I know…"

…

After leaving the transference hall, he sent Wyomin a message, asking if Lily and others were done. It's been a very long time, even though it didn't feel like it because he was engrossed in his cultivation.

A moment later, his communication crystal buzzed.

When he heard the message, his brows shot up before a look of relief appeared on his face, only to be replaced by a heavy expression in the next moment.

Swoosh!

After sending Wyomin another message, he rushed out of the war temple.

This message he just got… It wasn't from Wyomin but Ashroth.
