Strongest Mage with the Lust system

"Oh… okay." Rima nodded, looking both hesitant and excited, and went to take a bath.

After she left, Maria glanced at Max and sulkily said, "My lord… this means you won\'t have breakfast with my parents and me?"

Looking at her expression, Max smiled wryly. He got out of the bed, walked up to her before cupping her beautiful face in his hands and smiled. "I would have loved to eat with you and your parents, but they are still sleeping."

"Oh? Should I wake them up so we can have breakfast together?" She quickly asked.

"No, let them sleep. They need enough rest to recover." Max shook his head and, just as Maria was about to speak again, he kissed her lips, sealing her mouth.

Maria\'s eyes widened in surprise before a moment before she closed her eyes and reciprocated the kiss.

Half a minute later, Max broke the kiss and, with an apologetic expression, he said, "I know you want to spend more time with me. I\'m the same as I also want to do the same but unfortunately can\'t. But don\'t worry, next time I come, I\'ll take you with me so we can always be together. You won\'t refuse to leave with me then, will you?"

Maria hesitated for a while. In the end, she bit the corner of her lip and nodded. "I won\'t."

"Hm? This means you won\'t leave with me even then?" Max put on a sad expression.

"N-No, I mean I won\'t refuse to leave with my lord." Maria panicked when she saw his expression and hurriedly explained.

Seeing her flustered expression, Max chuckled and pulled her into his embrace. Caressing her back, he softly said, "I\'ll miss you."

Hearing this, Maria felt warmth in her heart and tears welled up in her eyes. Sobbing, she nodded. "I\'ll miss you too, my lord."

They stood there, hugging each other until Rima came back to the room and spoke with a teasing tone which held some hints of envy. "What a lovely sight!"

"Ahh…" Maria jumped away from Max like a frightened rabbit.

Rima chuckled seeing this and then glanced at Max, who was still naked and his little guy was erect, pointing to the ceiling, and giggled, "Hehe, Maria, it seems you made your lord excited. Look how hard he is."

Hearing this, Maria glanced at Max, and seeing his thick veiny rod, she blushed furiously.

Max shook his head, smiling, and walked toward the bathroom. As he walked past Rima, he slapped her bubbly ass and gave it a tight squeeze, causing her to let out a surprise yelp.

"If we weren\'t in a hurry, I would\'ve loved to punish you." Saying this, he entered the bathroom.

After a while, he came out in light blue robes, matching his hair and eye colour. Seeing him, both ladies\' eyes brightened and awestruck expressions appeared on their faces.

Max chuckled and walked out of the room. After checking up on Maria\'s parents, he bade farewell to her and, along with Rima; he left.

Maria watched him disappear with tears in her eyes.

\'I won\'t disappoint you and will diligently cultivate and become worthy to accompany you, my lord, in your future endeavours.\' She swore in her heart and tightly clenched the spatial ring he gave her before leaving in her hand.

She then pricked her finger and dropped a drop of blood on the ring.

Sizzle~

The blood drop sizzled before disappearing into the spatial ring.

She then used her consciousness to scour the insides of the ring and, seeing what was in there, she was immediately flabbergasted.

There were at least a million Mana stones in there. Her hands trembled after seeing them. She had never seen more than 10 Mana stones at one time, but now she had a million of them. She couldn\'t believe it and her mind went blank.

After a while, she regained her senses, her heart filled with warmth and love. Just as she was about to retract her consciousness, she noticed a letter in a corner.

She took it out and opened it.

My lovely Maria,

I\'ve left some Mana stones for your daily expenses and for your cultivation. Oh right, I\'ve asked the city lord to arrange a better house in a better location for you guys, so move there and take care of yourself. I\'ve also left a communication crystal in the ring. You can ask Rima how to use it to contact me when you meet her. Take care.

Max.

"Thank you…" Maria emotionally murmured. The resolve to become stronger so she can accompany him becoming stronger in her heart.

…

Max didn\'t know anything about it. He entered the city lord\'s mansion with Rima and met up with Belen and Leticia, who were waiting there.

A while later, little Arya came running and led them to the dining hall for breakfast.

After they were done with breakfast, they walked out of the mansion with old man Raku and little Arya.

"Hehe, big sister, are you excited to meet your new master?" Little Arya, who was clinging to Rima\'s arm, giggled and asked.

"Yes. I am." Rima nodded. She was really excited. How can she not be? This future master of hers was a mighty king-ranked mage.

In the Green leaf kingdom, only the royal family was known to have a king class mage, which was the current king. But even with one king mage, they could lord over such a vast kingdom without any problem.

Ordinary people, even her mother, who was a viscount, didn\'t have a high enough status to meet the king.

If one were to say that king class mages were akin to gods for ordinary people, it wouldn\'t be a lie. However, now she was going to become a disciple of such a being. How can she not be excited?

However, the thing which excited her the most wasn\'t this but the fact that this future master of hers was a sonic elemental mage, just like her.

Under her guidance, she could quickly cast off the negative effects of learning non-elemental spells and becoming proficient at using her element wouldn\'t be as difficult as it was now.

It should be known that even though it had been more than a month since Max gave her the [Sonic Echo] and despite her trying her best, she still didn\'t even have initial mastery over it.

However, if she were to get pointers from an experienced sonic king, learning it wouldn\'t be this difficult, and she could also learn to fight properly using her sonic and much more.

Seeing this, Max and the group smiled and felt good for her. It was especially true for Belen and Leticia because they knew how much she had been struggling to improve herself and not be a burden on the group in the future.

After a while, they arrived in front of an old wooden house in the secluded area of the city.
