Strongest Mage with the Lust system - Chapter 741 Even Bigger Threat
After catching his breath, he was about to move again when Leo, who had met him three hours earlier, spoke up, “Overlord, please rest for a little while. I know you can continue for a few hours more, but you shouldn’t push yourself to the limits.”
“Yes, sir Overlord. Please rest for a while.” Another voice sounded, and this belonged to little Ruo’s paternal grandfather, Juan Ming, who was surprisingly still alive and without injuries when he came across him an hour ago. Since then, he had been following him too.
Max frowned. He didn’t really want to stop because massacring the demons was making his blood boil, and he was enjoying it quite a bit.
“Maybe I really need to rest a little.” He nodded.
He had already realized this was his yet-to-awaken Garfield Bloodline influencing him, and although it was easily manageable, he didn’t like it. So, he decided to rest and recover from it. Additionally, he needed to check something too.
Swoosh!
Leo immediately rushed over, cleared the corpses… by storing them in his spatial ring, and took out a chair for him. It was covered with the hide of some furry beast’s hide and seemed quite comfortable.
“Please have a seat, Overlord.” He said. After Max sat down, he took out a small table, some spirit fruits, and spirit wine.
“Here, Overlord. Although they aren’t high-grade products, they are still good, very delicious, and will be able to help you recover a little.”
Max stared at him silently before shaking his head and picking up the glass of wine Leo just poured him.
“You sit down too.” He said after taking a sip.
Leo’s expression brightened, and he immediately took out another chair for himself. This one was a normal, wooden chair. “Thank you, Overlord. I’m honored to have a drink with your esteemed—”
“Quit the flattery. It’s annoying.” Max glared at him. He was tired and needed rest and some quiet. Leo immediately shut his mouth and silently drank wine with him.
Juan, standing at some distance, chuckled inwardly at Leo’s blatant bootlicking. But the look on his face said he wouldn’t miss the chance to bootlick if he got one.
…
In the distance, many people—both demons and humans—watched Max relax and leisurely drink wine, appearing as though he wasn’t sitting in the center of the battlefield but in his backyard.
While the human mages, except for hostile forces like the Seidel family’s group, looked at him with bright eyes, strangely feeling good, the demons were enraged seeing his complete and utter disregard for them. However, they could only seethe in their hearts, not daring to do anything about it.
How could they?
In just the last half an hour, they had watched him slaughter hundreds of Five Star demons, dozens of whom were at the high stage and peak of the Five Star.
It was mostly due to him that the center of the battlefield, which should be the most chaotic, was the calmest.
In the distance, Martha’s group also watched him relax. Martha and her female companion’s eyes, like every other female who was watching Max, shone with fascination. Right now, he looked irresistible to them.
…
Max’s attention was focused inside his dantian, which the Death Energy had completely filled. Because of it, he was starting to have a hard time accessing his mana core and the Nascent Energy.
Even more troublesome, his bloodline was constantly refining more death energy of the demons he just killed.
‘What a headache!’ He sighed. He couldn’t expand his dantian, nor could he store the Death Energy elsewhere in his body as it would be dangerous.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up as he thought of something.
‘What if I condense it into a solid form like the mana crystals?’ He wondered. His mana core was a solid object, so it wouldn’t be a problem if he stored more solid objects… right?
He was unsure and a little worried, but, ‘It’s worth a try,’ he thought, closed his eyes, and started compressing the Death Energy. Although it was very difficult, with his bloodline sense’s help, he was able to manage it.
‘Mm?’ Leo raised his brows in surprise, ‘He is cultivating? Seriously?’
Then he shook his head and smiled bitterly, ‘If I were as strong as him, I would be this carefree too.’
He then glanced around, seeing the number of the demons around them was increasing and the battles, which had stopped because of Max’s violent massacre, started erupting again. However, everyone was making sure not to disturb Max too much.
He then raised his head and looked at Azaroth’s Aura Domain, ‘What’s happening in there? Seeing how strong King Azaroth was, he should have dealt with all the demons by now, especially since he had seven human king mages to help him.’
He wasn’t the only one who was wondering about this; almost everyone else was too.
High in the sky, inside the isolation barrier, both human and demon emperors had solemn expressions on their faces as they watched the ongoing battle within Azaroth’s aura domain.
After the domain turned opaque, unable to restrain themselves, they had unanimously decided to use their divine sense to watch what was happening inside.
As they had expected, in just half an hour, Azaroth had completely dominated all the demon kings. But strangely enough, he didn’t kill any of them. Instead, he removed the suppression of his domain from them and asked them to fight him. Essentially, he was using his domain just to contain the demon kings so they wouldn’t massacre the human army.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Thud! Thwack!
Boom!
Psshh!
Currently, over a dozen demon kings were ganging up on Azaroth while the rest kept the seven human kings in check. His originally neat robes had turned into rags, and he was supporting several injuries that had turned him into a bloodied figure.
However, he had an excited look on his face and seemed full of energy while the demon kings were huffing in exhaustion. They had tried their best to take advantage of his arrogance to kill him, but they were only able to leave minor injuries on him.
After a few hours, frustrated, a howler demon king had tried to self-detonate to kill him, but Azaroth immediately froze him with his domain’s suppression. He didn’t kill him; instead, he cut off his limbs, inflicted several more injuries, and destroyed his mana core before throwing him to the side to suffer.
After that, no one tried to self-detonate and continued fighting in turns in hopes of exhausting and killing him, even though they knew their hope wouldn’t be realized unless the emperors attacked his domain from outside, the chances of which happening were almost negligible.
[This human needs to be killed.] Matriarch Luen spoke to the demon emperors through her divine sense.
It was one thing if he dominated all the demon kings using his domain, but for the last few hours, he was fighting without its assistance and was still dominating them. And the fact that they couldn’t see through why he was able to do this made him an even bigger threat.
Vigil’s gaze flickered, a hint of helplessness flashing deep within his eyes. He knew his scarlet demon tribe had lost the last chance of becoming the lord of the Green Leaf’s territory along with the Devil Horned tribe.
[Are you going to ask them for help?] He asked after a moment.
[Yes. We have no other choice.]
