Strongest Mage with the Lust system
chapter-304-30041322

[Stop staring, kid. She will feel uncomfortable.] Suddenly, the system's voice sounded in his ears and helped him regain his composure.

"This... What happened?" Max had a puzzled expression as if he was confused by something.

[This Elvin beauty, despite having such superior beauty, seems to have cultivated some seduction methods. However, it seems she hadn't cultivated them to mastery yet. If she did, you wouldn't have been able to come out of the 'charmed' state even if I tried awakening you.] The system explained, its voice filled with appreciation for Siana.

"This means I couldn't move my eyes from her even though I wanted was she didn't want me to? Is she trying to seduce me? However, why would she do that to me? I'm sure it's our first meeting." Max kept mumbling whatever came to his mind.

[Kid, don't go ahead of yourself. When did I say she did that on purpose? If she had, with your current mental fortitude, you would've lost your mind before I had the chance to remind you.] The system disdainfully said.

"She is...a dangerous beauty!" Max sweated inwardly when he heard this and shook his head to dispel any thoughts he previously had about her. Able to cause anyone to lose their mind without physically doing anything; what ridiculous concept was this?

[Tch, kid. Don't be so cowardly. What if she is dangerous? It would be even more fun to make her yours. Moreover, she is an elf and already a peak five-star mage; if she becomes your woman, it'll benefit you a lot. She alone has the potential to help you break through into the king realm.] The system said in an enticing voice.

Hearing this, Max's eyes twinkled with bright light; however, in the next moment, he became depressed again, "Although what you said might be true, I don't think I have what it takes to make an outstanding woman such as her who is already a five-star mage, mine. Not to mention she is an elf, and deep down, she must also resent humans."

[That's right. Even if she doesn't resent humans, she won't put you in her eyes. However, that doesn't mean she won't in future.] The system replied before going silent.

Max then turned around to look at Rima, Belen and Leticia and found them looking at him weirdly.

"What were you mumbling about? Did her beauty make to go mad?" Rima looked at him playfully and asked.

"No, it's nothing like that." Max smiled wryly.

Just then, Siana glanced toward Max, her brows creased slightly, and she thought, 'How surprising! He can remain unaffected when I'm standing so close to him.'

She then put little Arya down, walked toward Max and the group, and bowed slightly, "Hello, guests. I'm Siana. It's a pleasure to meet you."

"Hello, It's our pleasure to meet you, miss Siana." Rima and others also greeted her. Max struggled to keep his eyes off of her not to seem lecherous or distrustful as he greeted her, "Hello, miss Siana. I'm Max, nice to meet you."

Siana noticed his struggle and couldn't help but chuckle lightly and comment, "It's very rare to meet someone like you."

Rima and the other ladies looked at her in confusion, not understanding what she meant by that, while Max was caught off guard by her compliment.

Just then, the system's voice rang out in his ears, [Kid, you are very lucky. She seems impressed by the fact that you aren't drooling over her. You are off to a good start.]

She then continued to say, "I've to admit that I hadn't expected someone to meet such a talented person in such a small kingdom."

"I'm not as talented as you might think, miss Siana," Max shook his head and sighed.

Although Max was saying what he thought was the truth, Siana thought he was just being modest and shook her head, "At such a young age, you're already so strong and have mastered an extraordinary spell like [Destruction wheel]. If you aren't talented, I don't who is."

Max couldn't help but feel his face burning in embarrassment when he heard this. Strong? He was just a two-star mage, and as for mastering the [Destruction wheel], thanks to the system, he was able to write them down even though he hadn't mastered them yet. However, he didn't want to clarify this since it made his impression on her good.

"Yeah, auntie, big brother Max is really strong. He killed that bad guy who was a three-star mage in a single punch." Little Arya excitedly jumped around and waved her fists around as she narrated the scene where he killed the dark mage's leader.

After hearing how Little Arya and her grandparents were kidnapped and were planning to sacrifice them, Siana became angry and unwittingly released her aura which almost suffocated everyone present in the room.

It was only when little Arya told her how Max and the group saved them, she calmed down. She then bowed deeply toward Max and the others and said, "Thank you, for saving little Arya, lord Raku and Granny."

"Miss Siana. You don't have to do this." Rima stood up and helped her up.

After that, when Siana looked at Max, her eyes held curiosity, gratefulness, and interest in them. Seeing this, Max became a tad bit more excited.

She then said, "Sir Max, I heard you sold us ten more copies of the [Destruction wheel] and want us to pay mid-grade Mana stones, right?"

"Yes. It would be great if you could do that." Max nodded.

"Sir Max, you know how rare the mid-grade Mana stones are in this rural area, right? So, the auction house can't really afford to pay 350,000 mid-grade stones. However, since you are my benefactor in a sense, I can pay you 200,000 mid-grade Mana stones and the rest in low-grade ones. Is that right with you?" Siana asked.

"Yes. That would be great, miss Siana." Max nodded and excitedly thought, 'I didn't expect me saving little Arya and her grandparents would be this beneficial. I should help out the people in need if I can from now on.
