Strongest Mage with the Lust system-Chapter 495 Self detonation

Elves frowned when they heard him.

The injured elf who had mocked Max previously wanted to say something about it, but the team leader gave him a 'stay quiet' look. The man could only grumble and focus on healing his injuries.

"You want us to be your slaves, don't you? You can kill us if that's the case." One of the three demons sneered.

Max calmly walked over to him, looked in his eyes for a moment, making him nervous, and then nodded, "As you wish."

Slash!

As soon as he spoke, the thunder sword moved and separated his neck from his body before anybody could even blink.

The demons gaped at this, feeling chills run down their spine.

Just as Max wanted to speak again, one of the remaining two gritted his teeth and shouted, "I won't die a worthless death like him!"

Right after he said that, his body started swelling unnaturally, and his green energy started rolling around him violently.

"This fucker…?!" Max's eyes widened when he realized what was happening. The demon wanted to detonate his demon core.

He wanted to stop him, but it was already too late.

Everyone, including the last demon, retreated at their top speed, wanting to go out of the explosion range.

They hadn't moved even 20 meters when,

BOOOM!!!

The demon's almost round body exploded. The destructive energy which erupted from him sent everyone, including the elf leader and Max, flying like helpless kids.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

After flying for over fifty meters, they started crashing against the trees, breaking them.

The first to stop was the elf leader — which was obvious since he was the strongest among the group — who crashed over 80 meters away from the explosion.

Surprisingly, the second to stop wasn't Max, but the demon who crash landed over 100 meters away. However, it wasn't too surprising since he had the better physical defense. After all, Max's physique was only level 1 of [Barbarian God Physique] which was only comparable to the peak two-star demon.

Max was the third one to stop, or over 10 meters away from the demon. Then there were others.

Cough! Cough!

The Elf leader and Max coughed almost at the same time while groaning in pain. Their clothes were in tatters, and deep injuries could be seen on their bodies. Most importantly, they were poisoned and their skin had turned a darker shade of green.

Cough!

The demon, who was lying on his front, coughed out a mouthful of blood before slowly turning his body around to face the sky.

Most of his scales had either fallen or broken and similar to Max and the elf leader, he also had many deep injuries all over his body and his left thigh only had a few pieces of flesh attached to the bone.

However, as soon as he caught his breath, he immediately jumped to his feet and tried to flee, but how could Max let him go?

Whoosh!

Despite feeling the pain all over his body, he released his mana to boost his speed and immediately caught up to him, and grabbed his neck from behind.

"Move and I'll break your neck," He said, wincing in pain.

The demon was clearly afraid of death and immediately froze in place.

Cough!

Max spat out some green, poisoned blood and coldly said,

"I don't want to waste time with you. So, if you want to live, let me place a slave seal in you. You have three seconds to answer before I'll kill you."

The demon instinctively wanted to protest when he heard he wanted to plant a slave seal. He was one of the demons, after all, who deemed themselves the superior race. So, how could he be willing to become a lowly human's slave?

However, when he heard the last part, all his pride vanished. He wanted to live and give his family a better life. So, he gritted his teeth and hurriedly said,

"I agree. Please don't kill me."

"Good. Now don't resist." Max said, while spitting out more poisoned blood.

Shing~!

As he condensed his mana into the slave seal, an ancient character formed in the air, radiating a terrifying aura.

Gulp!

The demon gulped when he saw this. This was the first time he saw this kind of slave seal and it was obvious this was better than what his Green Serpent race uses on their slaves.

Under Max's control, the seal flew toward him and entered his forehead.

"Ahhhh!" The demon immediately cried out in pain and fell to the ground while clutching his head. For a moment, he thought Max was killing him and not planting a slave seal.

The process lasted for a few minutes, which made Max exasperated because he wanted this demon to give him the antidote to this poison, as he didn't want to buy it from the system shop.

He now understood what Rima's master, Aria, must be feeling while she was 'poisoned' with that black demonic energy.

As soon as the process ended, Max felt a subtle link to the demon. The demon wanted to stand up kneel when Max quickly waved his hand, "Save that for later. Now, hurry and give me the antidote."

The demon gave him a puzzled look, but when he saw Max's skin color and green wounds, he understood what he meant and hesitantly said,

"Um, master. I don't have the antidote."

"What?! WHY?!" He shouted in rage while spitting out more green blood.

"B-Because… we don't need it." The demon answered, unnerved by his shout. He feared Max would kill him since he was of no use to him, so he hurriedly added,

"However, Master. I can you absorb all the poison out of you."

"Then what are you waiting for? Do it." Max ordered.

The demon, however, hesitated.

"What is it?" Max asked in displeasure. Although the poison inside his body wasn't yet lethal because he was suppressing it with his mana however, it was very uncomfortable. So, he was naturally displeased when he saw him hesitate instead of immediately get to work.

But when he heard him next, he understood why he was hesitating. 𝚋ｅｄｎ𝚘𝚟ｅｌ.ｃｏ𝚖
