Strongest Mage with the Lust system

"Thank you. I\'ll do just that then." Max nodded. Although he planned to return as soon as possible to the academy, since it was going to be night soon, he had to spend the night in the sun feather city. So, it was convenient and safer if he could stay in the city lord\'s mansion instead of some in.

"Good." The Elder nodded and gestured to the petite woman, "Arrange a place for him to stay."

"Yes, Elder." The petite woman nodded, led him to the mansion\'s residential area, and gave him a room. This room wasn\'t as big as the one he had back in the Garfield mansion, but it wasn\'t too small either.

Plop!

After sending the petite woman away, Max flopped in the bed lazily. After all that fighting and chasing, he was exhausted.

He then took out the bandit leader\'s spatial bag and scanned it. As he did so, his expression became colorful.

Bam!

"What kind of lousy bandit leader was he? There are only a hundred Mana stones." Max grumbled in anger.

However, after thinking about it, he understood why this was so. \'He must have used all his wealth to buy that grade three spear.\'

As for why he was sure about that, the bandit leader bought it and did not rob it because anyone that could have a grade three weapon, even if he was a two-star mage, shouldn\'t be someone the one-eyed bandit could compare to.

\'Forget it. I\'ve already gained eight thousand Mana stones and the spear. Even if it was damaged, I should be able to sell it for more than five thousand Mana stones. Which means, In just three days, I have earned thirteen thousand Mana stones worth of wealth.\' Max thought in glee. At the same time, his determination to become strong also strengthened.

It should be known that because his father wasn\'t strong enough to face count Wiley, the Garfield family was suppressed to the point where they couldn\'t receive even a single Mana stone from the Royal family.

\'Just you wait, count Wiley. I\'ll definitely kill you.\' As he remembered count Wiley, suddenly he grew angry, and Mana started to flow uncontrollably around him.

…

Knock! Knock!

After two hours, someone knocked on his door. Max got up and opened the door. The petite woman standing there. He looked at her waiting for her to speak, but she just stood there, looking at him with a dreamy look.

"Do you need something, Pretty Lady?" Max smiled as he asked.

"Oh? No. I\'m here to lead you to the dining hall for dinner." The petite woman came out of her trance and blushed when she heard what he called her.

"Okay. Let\'s go then." Max nodded, stepped out of the room, and followed after her.

After five minutes of walking, they reached a big hall where many people were eating. Three big, long tables with many chairs placed on their side.

As they stepped inside the hall, many people noticed them. They nodded toward the petite woman and looked at Max in slight surprise and awe. Especially the females in the hall gave Max fiery glances.

The petite woman looked at these women in disdain before explaining, "This is the dining hall of the city lord\'s mansion. Everyone working in the city lord\'s mansion eats here." She then pointed at a door at the end of the hall, "See that room; only important people such as Elder are allowed to dine in there." Saying this, she walked past the tables and toward the room.

After reaching the room, she took out a token and put it into the groove.

Weng!

The door flashed with faint light and then opened. Max looked at this in surprise. Was there any need to protect it with a formation? Isn\'t it just a room to eat in. He thought.

However, when he stepped inside the room, he immediately understood why this was so.

The room was filled with at least five times more concentrated and pure Mana than out in the sun feather city, and the walls were decorated with paintings of mountains, rivers, and flowers that seemed to improve one\'s mood when looking at them. If the hall outside was an ordinary cafeteria, this room was like a five-star restaurant.

"Please wait here. Elder would be arriving soon." The petite woman gestured for him to sit down at the table.

Max nodded and sat down and started to look at the paintings. The petite woman glanced at him before going out.

After fifteen minutes, the door opened, and a middle-aged woman in a beautiful pink dress walked inside. Her body was well proportioned, skin smooth as jade, and a bit of cleavage was revealed that looked very captivating. Max looked at her in surprise.

This was the Elder, but the difference between her previous self and her current one was quite significant. When he met her earlier, she was always sitting behind the table, so Max couldn\'t see her properly, but from what he could see, she looked like an average middle-aged lady. However, right now, she was several times more enchanting, comparable to Jasmine.

"How do I look?" Seeing him looking at her, the Elder revealed a smile and asked.

"Beautiful," Max said without hesitation.

"Hehe, thank you." The Elder chuckled. She then pointed at the paintings, "How are these? Do you like them?"

"Yes, these are amazing and good to look at. The painter must be quite skilled." Max looked at the paintings and honestly praised them. Hearing this, the Elder revealed an even more beautiful smile.

After that, she sat in the chair in front of him and started talking about other things, such as when he joined the academy, his cultivation, etc.

Max was slightly puzzled about this change in her attitude and didn\'t dare to be too casual.

From the fact that she was tasked to look after one of the important cities under Cloud academy\'s control, he could guess that her status must be very high among other Elders, and an Elder like Jasmine couldn\'t compare to her.

Therefore, he didn\'t believe the fact that he was an inner disciple and had completed a silver-ranked mission was enough for her to treat him like this.

After a while, the petite woman entered the room with a few maids carrying food. She then also sat down and instructed the maids to serve them.

Max looked at the petite woman with a look of confusion. From his point of view, she was only an assistant of the Elder, but she didn\'t even ask for her permission before joining them.

The petite woman noticed this, and after the maids had left the room, she smiled and said, "The Elder is my aunt."

"Oh! That\'s why." Max nodded in understanding. After that, they talked while having dinner.

The petite woman\'s behavior was also more unrestrained right now, a big contrast from before. She proudly talked about her aunt and how talented she was.

Apart from being a powerful three-star Mage, she was also proficient in formations and had made the mana gathering and purifying formations in this room.

Moreover, she was also a painter in her free time, and the paintings on the walls were also her craft. After finding this out, Max understood why she was so happy when he praised the paintings.

…

At midnight Max was sitting cross-legged in his room, cultivating. Since he couldn\'t cultivate like others, he only focused on strengthening his core, recovering his Mana, and meditating.

Hu…!

He exhaled and opened his eyes. He then stood up, walked toward the bed, and lay down. However, he didn\'t close his eyes and seemed to be waiting for something.

Knock! Knock!

After a while, someone knocked on his door. \'Finally, here.\' He smiled and went to open the door.

Creak~

A mature woman in a silky pink nightgown stood in front of his room. Max smiled and asked, "Do you need anything, Elder?"

"Aren\'t you gonna invite me in first?" She chuckled.

"Of course. Please come in." Max nodded and gestured for him to enter. As she stepped inside, Max closed the door.

The Elder sat on the bed, one leg over the other. She looked at him for a moment as if thinking about what to say. Finally, she asked, "I thought you wanted to sell that broken spear, right?"

Max put on a helpless expression, sat beside her, and said, "Yes, Elder. I need a lot of Mana stones to buy something.\' He added this last line to make things convenient for her.

Elder\'s eyes lit up as he expected, and she nodded, "I understand. But as I said before, since it is damaged, you would receive only half of its actual price."

Then her expression became serious as she continued, "However, seeing that you are so talented, I can buy it at its actual worth."

Swoosh!

Max suddenly grabbed her hand and asked in excitement, "Really?"

Elder looked at his excited expression and felt a bit more confident as she added in a severe tone, "Yeah. However, in return, you must do something for me and swear to keep it a secret."
