Strongest Mage with the Lust system

Though he made the good decision, how could Max let him leave? After all, he also had lewd intentions regarding Anna in his heart.

Swoosh!

Max appeared behind him, grabbed his neck, and lifted him up in the air as though he was nothing but an ordinary man and slammed him down on the ground.

BANG!

Kuhhgg~!

The violent impact shook Ryder’s organs, causing them to rupture, while many of his bones, including the spinal cord, snapped. Blood burst out from his mouth, nose, and ears while his eyes went wide, seemingly on the verge of popping out of his eye sockets.

Hiss!

Everyone felt chills run down their spine and took in a cold breath.

“Is he… really just a Peak Four Star mage?”

“It seems so.”

“Then why can he manhandle peak Five Star mages without breaking a sweat?”

“…He is a monster!”

While the crowd broke out in murmurs as they watched the scene playing out in front of them with disbelieving looks in their eyes, Max looked down at Ryder and coldly uttered,

“You know why you are going to die, right?”

Ryder’s vision was blurry, and because his throat was filled with blood, he could barely croak out a few words.

“P…lease, for…give me. I… don’t… guhg… want… to die.”

“No one does.” Max said, emotionlessly. “Do you think that guy who you were extorting wants to die? No, he does not. That was why he worked in your inn, but did you care whether he and his family would die when you beat him up and threw him out without paying his earnings? No, you did not.”

Saying this, Max was about to clench his grip and break his neck, but right then…

“Stay your hand!” A shout echoed.

Max acted as though he didn’t hear anything and put strength in his grip.

Boom!

Right then, a terrifying pressure swept out from the inn in front of him and flung him away.

Swoosh!

While Max tried to regain control of his body in midair, a man in red robes appeared beside Ryder.

He looked down at him and noticed that… Ryder was already dead.

His expression darkened, and he shouted, glaring at Max, who had just managed to land on the ground and was wiping the blood from the corner of his lips.

“How audacious!”

Boom!

His aura flared, and everyone standing around him was flung away, crashing into the building on each side of the street.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Max’s eyes narrowed the moment he released his aura because Anna was standing just a few meters away from him; however, before he could move to protect her, the man appeared in front of him, his hand clawing toward his neck to capture him.

Max’s anger flared, and he released his aura field, strengthened by his bloodline energy, to slow him down while the mixture of fire elemental mana and his bloodline energy converged around his right fist, setting it ablaze with dark crimson fire.

Without hesitation, he punched toward his claw.

The attacker was a mid-stage King mage, and being someone from the central plains, he was significantly stronger than the King mage of the desolate region and a lot more prideful—mainly because Max was a savage of the desolate region.

So, when he saw him release his aura field to stop him, disdain flashed in his eyes, but it soon turned into slight surprise because it had managed to slow him by a beat.

He snorted and released his own aura to counter, instantly relieving all the pressure off him.

Then he saw Max prepare an attack, and he immediately flew into a rage.

Did this ant really think it could resist him? How delusional!

Before, he was simply going to grab him, but now he covered his hand in his mana and clawed toward Max’s incoming fist, wanting to crush it into a bloody pulp.

However…

Bang!

When Max’s blazing fist rammed into his claw, his expression changed drastically because he could feel his skin burning and the bones in his palm and fingers about to shatter.

Swoosh!

He immediately pulled his hand back and jumped away while slapping with his other hand, manifesting a palm imprint.

Unlike the simple grab just now, this palm was a magic spell attack and contained over seventy percent of his strength.

Max’s expression turned somber, and without hesitation, he unleashed the strongest attack in his repertoire—the Annihilation Finger.

His mana and bloodline energy rushed out of his body in large quantities before fusing to create a slender finger that radiated extreme might and flew toward the incoming palm.

BOOM!

When they clashed against each other, they exploded in a storm of energy, the shockwaves of which sent Max—who couldn’t dodge in time because he wasn’t able to react after activating his bloodline ability—flying and created a large crater in the middle of the street.

Shockwaves hit the building too, but the defensive formation activated briefly and negated them.

“How is this possible?!”

Seeing Max managed to defend against his attack, the man was shocked beyond belief.

How could he not when Max was two entire realms below him?

‘This guy is a monster.’ He also realized this, and his killing intent skyrocketed.

He had to kill Max now more than ever because no matter how powerful his background was, he couldn’t afford to offend someone like Max and let him live.

‘I’m still no match for a decent King mage, huh?’ Max thought, picking himself up from the ground, his gaze locked onto the attacker.

‘Fortunately, it won’t be long before I can break through to Five Star; otherwise, I would have no choice but to remain extremely cautious while I’m in the central plains.’ He thought.

He could see the man had decided to kill him. So, his next attack wouldn’t be something he could defend against… if he didn’t use his trump card, the Nascent or Death Energy.

But the problem was, he didn’t want to expose them.

The next moment, his gaze became steely, and the black core orbiting around his mana core trembled.
