Strongest Mage with the Lust system

Chapter 645  Central Plain Alliance

The moment he had felt her gaze on him, he felt as if a massive mountain had fallen on him.

Though it lasted less than a second, he felt completely suppressed. His heart seemed to have stopped beating, his blood stopped flowing and even his thoughts had turned sluggish.

That was overwhelming and even more unpleasant.

Still, it made him realize that no matter how strong he had become, in front of an Emperor Mage, he was nothing but an ant. Maybe this was even true for Real King Magus too.

This humbling realization was very timely because he had unconsciously started to become a little overconfident after his recent breakthrough.

With that said, this wasn't the reason why his expression turned grim. No, it was because he realized she had seen through his disguise.

While she might not care about it, nor would others from the central plains, who he felt weren't any weaker than her, the seventh person on the stage, who also seemed as strong as them despite being in the King Realm, would care.

Why?

Because this green haired man was none other than the Ruler of Green Leaf Kingdom, King Azaroth Williams.

If he noticed him…

This thought had just crossed his mind when Azaroth, who had his eyes closed until now, suddenly looked directly at him. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

'Fuck!'

Max cursed, and flashed besIde Lily, grabbed her waist before appearing beside Emily…

However, just as he was about to leave… a voice sounded in his mind.

[Oh! So, you are the kid who thrashed that arrogant kid from the Sovereign Mountain? Not bad, kid.]

Max stopped, not only because he knew running would be useless, but also because there was no hostility or malice in the voice.

While Lily, Emily, Pauline and everyone around them looked at him in confusion, wondering why he was suddenly running around, he raised his head and looked at Azaroth, who was looking at him with an imperceptible smile.

[Good. Now, calm down. No need to panic.]

[I am aware my Williams family also wants you, who wouldn't after knowing how special you are? Even I'm tempted to capture you.]

Max's hair stood on end when he heard the last part when Azaroth's voice continued.

[Haha, don't worry. I won't do that.]

[Now, I will make sure my Williams family don't bother you anymore, alright? So, wash away any resentment you have formed in your heart in these few days.]

Max's eyes narrowed. Although he found it strange why he was taking initiative to become friends, he knew he wasn't trying to deceive him.

So, after thinking for a moment, he mouthed a few words.

[...Thank you for sparing me. But if you want my resentment with your family to end just because you chose to spare me, that's impossible.]

He could see Azaroth's eyes subtly flicker before he heard his voice once again.

[Now you are being unreasonable. As far as I know, we haven't done anything to harm you yet. What more, my son had even helped your woman.]

Max wanted to reply when he noticed Azaroth suddenly closed his eyes. A moment later, he understood why he did because three of the other six, including the stern lady, seemed to have noticed something and looked at him.

If Azaroth had continued looking, they would have followed his gaze, and noticed him.

The trio frowned before looking at the crowd. Max had put down Lily and had moved his gaze over to her. Despite that, he could feel their gazes linger around him, maybe because they were in disguise.

…

On the stage, of the trio, a man who looked to be the same age as Azaroth looked at him and asked, "Were you talking to one of those three disguised kids?"

The other three who hadn't noticed anything strange looked over when they heard him, interested.

Azaroth calmly opened his eyes and nodded, "Yes. Why? Don't tell me I'm not allowed to talk with my subjects if I wish to?"

The man's lips twitched, "Of course, you can. I just asked because you immediately stopped when we noticed."

"Well, I was done talking." Azaroth casually said.

"Why are they hiding their identities?" The stern woman asked before closing her eyes.

"Must be trying to hide from their enemies." Azaroth said before closing his eyes, not interested to entertain them any longer.

The man who had first asked him, looked at Max's trio and chuckled, "We don't need people who cause instability on the battlefield. Let me reveal their faces so they can settle their affairs right here."

As he said this, his attention was focused on Azaroth, wanting to see his reaction, but unfortunately for him, Azaroth acted as though he didn't hear him.

"Very well." He scoffed, a hint of anger diffusing in his voice and he raised his hand, but before he could do anything, the stern woman spoke.

"Don't be childish."

The man winced before chuckling awkwardly, "Haha, Lady Verana, I was just testing our King friend here."

The stern woman, Verana, didn't say anything and kept her eyes closed.

The other four just looked at each other in confusion before minding their own business.

…

Time passed as more and more people arrived. An hour later, another thousand magus had arrived.

Right at that moment, Lady Verana opened her eyes and raised her hand.

Immediately, the bustling plaza went silent.

She swept her gaze across everyone before saying, "You all came despite being aware of the dangers… You are brave."

"Most of you may already know this, but for those who don't, I'll like to tell you about the War Temples, and War merits."

"Every time demons invade, the Central Plains' Alliance establishes War Temples in every battlefield to support and reward the warriors that contribute in defending our land."

"Demons don't want that because the War Temples serve to bolster our defense and morale, making it several times more difficult to conquer our land. So, they always try to stop us from establishing the War temple only to fail.

They will try to stop us this time too..."

Immediately after she said this, everyone's expressions turned grim.
