Strongest Mage with the Lust system

Chapter 661  Targeted

A while ago...

The demon emperors' killing intent skyrocketed when they saw Max take out the Thunder Sword.

"He needs to die!" The demoness watching the battle play out with Wyomin uttered chillingly.

Then, she and the other demon emperor in front of Alton simultaneously turned to Wyomin and Alton. "Don't interfere, and let us kill him. In return, we will let you have his possessions and even his body as long as you give us his blood essence."

While Alton hesitated upon hearing this...

Boom!

Wyomin's aura flared and rapidly condensed into the aura sphere.

"I dare you to try."

The demoness' eyelids twitched seeing this, her killing intent intensifying. However, she didn't dare attack.

While the demons were stronger than ordinary human magus in the same realms thanks to their physiques, bloodlines, and strange abilities, she knew Wyomin was by no means ordinary, being a member of the Central Plains Alliance that had been stopping the demon race from returning to the mainland for several millennia.

Therefore, she turned her gaze to her companion, who was awaiting Alton's decision. If Alton agreed, she would go all out against Wyomin while he killed Max.

However, after a moment, Alton glanced at Max, his gaze flickering, and slowly shook his head. "You can forget about it."

The demon's face fell.

Boom!

Unlike the demoness, he couldn't control himself and immediately attacked Alton the moment he disagreed.

His expression impassive, Alton raised his hand and pointed at the demon.

Boom!

The demon felt an overwhelming power descend upon him, almost freezing his blood and mana circulation.

Immediately, the demon halted, and a look of shock appeared on his face that then turned into fear and then into anger.

"You are from that accursed family!" He growled.

Alton just shook his head with a faint smile on his face before turning his gaze toward Max.

'Blue hair and the Thunder Sword, huh?' He thought, an incomprehensible gleam flashing in his eyes.

…

On the battlefield, Max wasn't the only one who was slaughtering the Five Star demons. There were several other groups and some lone wolves like him too.

One of these people, who could single-handedly kill high-stage and even peak Five Star demons, was King Azaroth's younger sister, Martha Williams.

Dressed in her golden armor and wielding a long spear, she killed demons left and right. Her speed didn't decrease even a bit as she massacred several early, mid, and even high-stage Five Star demons.

Even when she faced peak Five Star demons, she would struggle just a bit before killing them, regardless of whether they had activated their bloodline ability or not.

The others in her group, although not as ferocious as her, were also capable of massacring the Five Star demons too if they were not high-stage or peak Five Star.

The man who had shouted at Max, uncle Armand, didn't hesitate to go head to head against even high-stage demons.

On the other side of the battlefield, a group of three was rampaging about... These three—two women and one man—from the Seidel family, although they weren't able to kill peak Five Star demons when fighting alone, when they joined forces, they would kill them after a short fight.

On the other side, a group of thirty Four Star Magus from the Arasia family were also slaughtering all the demons they could get their hands on, except the Five Star demons, who they didn't try to approach despite having such an overwhelming number of Four Star mages.

Just like them, from the Martell family, a young man who looked to be barely 20 was claiming the lives of demons without break. However, unlike others who had a flashy fighting style, he acted like an assassin. He would sneak up on the demons and slit their throats before piercing their heads.

From the beginning of the fight, he had assassinated the demons in all realms, from peak Three Star to high-stage Five Star, only leaving the peak Five Star demons alone.

Apart from them, there were a few others who didn't belong to any major family but were doing great, though they weren't able to kill as many Five Star demons.

Since Martha and others were even more dangerous than Max, having killed several more demons than him, why would the demon Emperors want to kill Max?

Just because of his extraordinary bloodline and Thunder Sword?

Yes, they were also the reasons, but if they weren't the only or the main reasons.

The main reason was that, unlike Maratha and others, who all were mid-to-peak Five Star magus, Max was just an early-stage Four Star mage. The potential danger he posed was much too great. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

One should know that the war wasn't going to end in a few months but would most likely take years. If he didn't die, then with the War Temple's resources, he would only grow stronger. At that time, the damage he would cause them would be too enormous to ignore.

'This won't do.' The demoness thought and shouted.

"Retreat!"

Immediately, the demons stopped and turned to escape.

"Don't let them escape! Kill them!"

The humans cheered and started chasing them. But when the demon stopped and retaliated, more humans died, which made Alton order the human side to stop.

With that, this battle was over.

Up in the sky, the demon Emperors cast a glance at Max before leaving.

…

Max had just stopped after killing the demons when they retreated. He didn't find it strange since it was only natural in a large-scale war... until he felt two murderous gazes land on him for a second, causing him to freeze.

'This again…' He frowned.

He had felt these two gazes before, the first time when he killed O'mara and the second when he took out the Thunder Sword, and had already guessed they should be the demon Emperor supervisors.

'Just great!' He sighed, feeling his head hurt. Although they weren't able to target him personally with Alton and Wyomin here, he was sure the next time the demons attacked, he would be targeted.
