Strongest Mage with the Lust system

An overwhelming rage took control of his mind when Max saw the state Lily was in. Not caring about the consequences, he used a magic spell he didn't know he had.

Rumble!

His mana core shook, and his blood churned before all of his elemental Mana and bloodline Energy erupted out of him in torrents and fused into a single form of Energy under some invisible power before condensing into a slender finger.

Despite taking all his Mana and Bloodline Energy to condense, the finger was just a half inch long and didn't have a strong presence. If Max wasn't so overwhelmed with anger, he would've hesitated after seeing this. After all, what could such a harmless looking finger do to Oliver? …That was why, it was fortunate he wasn't sane. As soon as the finger condensed, he willed it to attack Oliver, whose face had turned ghastly pale for the first time. Of course, Max didn't notice it either.

As soon as he willed it, the finger appeared in front of Oliver. Oliver's eyes widened in shock and horror. The moment Max lost control, he had started setting up his defenses. However, this finger seemed to have ignored them to appear directly in front of him. However, he didn't have time to think how it did it, and was only able to take out a gem that looked like an Ice cube and slam it on his chest when…

BOOM!

…The finger exploded, releasing a deafening boom and a blinding flare of light which forced Max and Emily to close their eyes.

After a few seconds, everything calmed down. Max also regained his senses after the explosion, and when he looked at the scene in front of him, his heart couldn't help but tremble.

'I… did that?' After the initial shock, he became excited. Although he cast this spell on instinct just now, this Magic Spell or Bloodline Ability to be exact was now imprinted in his mind. Yes, this finger attack was his Bloodline Ability which he had awakened after unlocking the 'First Lock' of his bloodline.

The reason it hadn't manifested when the first lock shattered was because he hadn't fulfilled the requirement. Apparently, for this ability to manifest itself, he needed to be in a state of extreme anger.

Suppressing the urge to curse the system for placing such nonsensical requirements, he looked at the scene in front of him.

Starting from the place Oliver was standing on, everything was destroyed in a straight line for hundreds of meters. Squinting his eyes, he saw Oliver lying at the end of the trail, motionless. He was missing his right hand, his legs seemed to be broken too and his chest was burst apart.

Just when he thought he was dead, Oliver's body twitched.

"Still not dead?" He frowned, and rushed over to finish him off. Although he seemed to be on the verge of death, who knew if he had something that could instantly heal him. He couldn't take the risk, especially now when he had completely exhausted his Mana and Bloodline Energy and Lily needed him urgently.

Swoosh!

However, by the time he arrived in front of him, Oliver had taken out a talisman and crushed it.

'Teleportation talisman?' Max furrowed his brows when he recognized it. Seeing the energy covering him, he knew he wouldn't be able to kill him.

Right before Oliver teleported away, he looked at him with his bloodshot eyes and his lips moved:

I'll make you regret it.

Swoosh!

Then, he vanished.

Max stared at the place he was laying for a moment in silence before he turned around and left. It was regrettable that he couldn't kill him, but that was all. Unlike before, he was confident he would be able to kill him the next time they met.

'Just pray nothing happens to Lily, otherwise I'll make you regret being born in this world.' His eyes flashed with a frighteningly cold light.

…

Emily was shocked. She couldn't believe Max had just almost killed Oliver. But no matter how incredulous it was, she had witnessed it with her own two eyes and had no choice but to believe it. Watching him rush over with a worried look on his face, she quickly calmed down and as soon as he arrived and started checking Lily's condition, she informed him, "She seemed to have used some self harming spell. The backlash has injured her Mana core and Vital organs and she is constantly losing her vitality."

Hearing this, and checking her condition, Max's expression turned grim, and he again started emitting killing intent.

Seeing this, Emily put a hand on his shoulder and said, "Calm down. We need to take her to a doctor or an alchemist as soon as possible."

Max took a deep breath and sat down before taking out over ten thousand Mana stones with a wave of his hand.

"What are you doing? We need to hurry. She won't sur-" Emily frowned when she saw this.

Max cut her off before she finished, "At the rate she is Vitality, she won't last more than ten minutes."

Emily went silent upon hearing this. She knew what he meant. They were at the edge of the city, quite some distance away from the inner city where they could find a doctor capable enough to heal her. Even at their fastest speed, it would take them more than ten minutes to cross this distance and even more time to find the doctor… the time Lily didn't have.

She understood this, but… were they supposed to give up? She shook her head. Given how much he loved her, he would be the last person to give up on her. Which meant, he had a way to save or at the very least, stabilize her condition.

Thinking this, she calmed down and watched him drain pile after pile of Mana stones. Under her nervous, and curious gaze, Max absorbed all ten thousand Mana stones in just over three minutes.

'How fast!' Emily couldn't help but be shocked again.

Max couldn't help but feel fortunate that his Bloodline ability stripped him of every last bit of his Bloodline Energy. If he still had some left, his Bloodline wouldn't have entered this 'Thirsty' state, increasing his mana absorption speed. Then again, if he had Bloodline Energy left, he wouldn't have to absorb the Mana stones to recover his Bloodline Energy.

Ignoring the conflicting thoughts, he focused on using the absorbed mana to recover his Bloodline Energy. Under the combination of his bloodline's 'thirst' and his constant stimulation, all the mana he absorbed was converted into the Bloodline Energy in just over two minutes. Although this didn't fill his reserve of Bloodline Energy, he had enough to save Lily.

Opening his eyes, he shot to his feet, and started injecting his Bloodline Energy into her body, while nervously praying, 'Don't let me down!'

His Bloodline Energy had several uses. It helped him shorten his breakthrough time. It helped him expel Oliver's rampaging Mana from Emily's body. It had a massive strengthening effect which allowed him to fight Oliver. He was sure it had even more uses. He just hoped it was also able to help Lily. If it did not… he didn't even want to think of the possibility, but it made his heart quiver with fear.

On the side, Emily was also nervous. She didn't know what he was doing, but she hoped he succeeded in whatever he was trying. Because if he didn't, Lily would die and she didn't know if he would be able to take it. Seconds ticked by but there was no change in Lily's condition. Max felt his blood run cold, tears welled up in his eyes and his body started shaking. 'No… please no! Please work!'

Emily's heart palpitated in fear when she saw this. She closed her eyes and clenched her fists so tight that her nails dug into her palms, and blood started flowing out.

After a moment, she took a deep breath and placed a hand on his back, and started saying, "Little Max-"

However, just then, Max cried out, "It's working!"

Hearing this, she felt as though a heavy boulder was lifted off her heart, and heaved a sigh of relief.

Max didn't dare to relax and continue to pour his Bloodline Energy in Lily's body. As more and more energy infused into her Vital organs, they started defreezing and her Vitality drainage slowed down.

When all his bloodline energy was used up, though her Vital organs hadn't completely recovered, they recovered enough and she stopped losing Vitality. The Ice covering her body vanished, and she started warming up.

Phew!

Although she hadn't completely recovered and didn't regain consciousness, Max exhaled a deep breath of relief. Since her condition had stabilized, it was only a matter of time before he helped her recover completely. At that time, she would naturally regain consciousness.

"Is she… alright now?" Emily carefully asked.

"Yes. Her condition is stable." Max nodded, "Let's return to the inn. I'll help her recover there, and you also need to rest and recover."

Emily nodded. However, just when they were about to leave the area… Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Several figures flew over and landed in front of them.
