Chapter 537 Backlash

Thud! Thud!

Emily kicked the two demons, making them fall in front of Max.

She then looked at him and asked, "Can you… do it?"

Hearing this, Max smiled bitterly. He didn't have enough strength to stand up on his own, let along kill them.

"Let me recover a bit." He said and continued to pop healing pills into his mouth like candies. By now, he had eaten over two dozen of them but didn't feel himself getting better, and this made him frown. He could, of course, buy something to recover instantly from the system shop, but he wanted to save as many SPs as he could. After all, he only had less than two weeks left to amass enough SPs to buy the [Drop of life] for his father and healing medicine for his old grandma, too, if possible.

The elves celebrated the victory, laughing and crying joyously, while the two four-star elves came over to Max.

The male elf looked at him for a while, hesitating whether he should speak or not. In the end, he couldn't suppress his curiosity and tentatively asked, "Leader, if you don't mind me asking, how did you manipulate your aura sphere?"

As soon as he asked this, Emily's eyes flashed with a ghastly killing intent and she coldly said, "Do you really want to die so badly?"

The female elf also looked at the male elf in astonishment. She also wanted to know this, but she didn't since asking for other's secrets so was a taboo because if one's secrets were revealed, one would be vulnerable. free webnov el.com

"N-No… I… I don't have any bad intentions… I was just curious because only monarchs and supreme mages can do it." The elf raised his hand and hastily explained, already regretting asking.

"It's alright." Max said, not bothered.

The elf sighed in relief while Emily grunted coldly. "You are too soft." She said, making Max shake his head.

He then glanced at the elf and said, "Message Rey and ask him to come over."

"Rey? He is still alive?" The elf asked in surprise. Previously, when he didn't see him, he had thought he was dead. So, after hearing he was still alive, the elf's expression lightened up.

He then immediately took out his communication crystal and asked Rey to come over.

Five minutes later, Rey arrived with Ellie and her mother. The ladies visibly relaxed when they saw Max was safe. Right now, Max was the only one who could ensure their safety since they could see he seemed to care for them for some unknown reason. As for the rest, they wouldn't even bat an eye if they died.

As Max rested, the elves looked at the two remaining demons with confused expressions, wondering why they were still alive.

Ellie and her mother felt intense hatred and anger every time they saw them and wanted nothing more than to shred them into pieces. But… they didn't dare approach them, fearing that the demon could kill them, even though they knew, in their current condition, they wouldn't be able to harm them. Even if they could, Max and others could save them.

As everyone waited for Max to recover, time trickled by and soon half an hour had passed since he killed Nix.

'I never thought there would be such a severe backlash.' He thought, a deep frown on his face. Just as he expected, the healing pill didn't help his current condition and even after all this time, he had no energy in his body.

Emily and others also noticed this but didn't say anything upon seeing his expression, lest they annoyed him further.

'System, you should have at least warned me about it. What if that last group of demons didn't retreat and attacked us instead? How could I have protected myself?' Max mentally grumbled.

When he was fighting the demon, Max initially didn't have any chance to kill him at all. It was then the system had suggested to him that he could try to control his aura sphere.

When Max said that, he—a mere three-star mage—couldn't do it, the system told him, albeit reluctantly, that he could control it because right now, his aura sphere was 'contaminated' by his bloodline energy. And if he could control the bloodline energy present in the aura sphere, he could manipulate it to a certain degree. It was another specialty of the lust overlord's bloodline.

[Host, as the system previously told you, you need to experience things to understand them better. Only then you can gain true strength. Besides, they retreated, didn't they?] The system answered.

Max had already expected such a response, but the last part surprised him slightly because it seemed the system was trying to joke? fre(e)novelkiss.com

Since the system was intelligent, it wasn't really shocking that it could imitate some of the human characteristics. But the point here was… it never did before. But now that it suddenly did, what did that mean?

As the realization hit him, his frown disappeared and a slightly excited expression appeared on his face as he asked, 'System, are you about to upgrade to level 2?'

[No, host. However, the system has recovered quite a bit of energy. So, it won't be long. If you want to upgrade it quicker, work harder.] The system responded before going silent.

'That's good news.' He thought. Once the system upgraded, he would have an easier time amassing more points.

Emily and the others immediately noticed the change in his expression and sighed in relief, thinking that he was finally getting better. When suddenly,

"Hm?" Max's brows furrowed once again, and a puzzled look appeared on his face.

Just a moment ago, he suddenly felt himself start recovering as some energy returned to his body. But at the same time, he also felt a heat rising in his loins.

'Is this another side effect of forcefully controlling the bloodline?' He thought, focusing his senses on his body.

Sure enough, as he recovered, he felt his sexual desires spike. He tried to control it, but couldn't. As minutes passed, his body started heating up and breathing grew rough.

'Well… damn!' He cursed.
