Strongest Mage with the Lust system-Novel

Chapter 69 Ashton's Return (1)

Eva was pleasantly surprised by this sudden change, and if what she guessed was also true, then it might change her life.

She was the most talented among her siblings, but because her mother wasn't the main wife of her father, who was a baron in the town, she couldn't go to the academy or had enough resources to improve herself; afterwards, she got married to William. She thought she could go to an academy after marrying him as his father is a Viscount and wouldn't mind sending her to the magic academy.

Unfortunately, William didn't want her. Later, she found out that even if William allowed her, she still couldn't go because William had the worst talent except for Max among his siblings and thus, he himself couldn't join any academy, let alone sending her.

Since then, her cultivation had been stuck at the initial one-star mage. Although she had a few resources available to her, they wouldn't help her much. Gradually, her motivation was sucked away, and she became interested in sex. Unfortunately, William was admitted to an academy by Ashton's connections, and she couldn't even satisfy her lust.

She didn't expect much when she decided to seduce Max. She had two reasons for doing so. First, Max showed exceptional strength after recovering from his injuries, attracting her attention. Second, her lust was becoming unbearable, and she had to do something about it when she found out that Max was fucking his maid. She deemed him perverted and thought he would be an easy target.

'If this is really due to me having sex with him, then I'll have to grab every chance to do it with him until he goes to the academy. If I can achieve the two-star mage realm by myself, I might be allowed to join a magic academy.' She clenched her fist. She wanted to efficiently utilise this opportunity. Now she could only pray that Lilly would give her some chances to do it with him.

She didn't sleep after stabilising the chaotic mana surge inside her body and continued cultivating. She didn't want to remain a one-star mage her entire life and had to put some effort into it.

...

Max didn't know that he had given Eva such a huge opportunity. He had a nice bath and was sitting on the bed and looking at his status window with knitted eyebrows.

"I'm getting fewer LPs compared to before. What is the problem? Do I have to do it with stronger ladies than me to get a good amount of them? Damn it." He cursed.

LPs are everything to him as he can get stronger by using them. But now he was getting less LPs every time he had sex. Initially, he would get around a thousand when he did it with Lilly, who was only a novice mage at that time. But after he became a two-star mage and formed his mana core, he started to receive less even when he did it with Eva, who was a one-star mage.

'Sigh! It's fine. These are enough to push my strength further significantly, and at the rate, Lilly is improving, she should reach the two-star mage realm in around a half year. I shouldn't rush it too much.' He sighed and consoled himself.

Although he wanted to become strong quickly, he knew that if he showed such talent, then it might cause him trouble and his current strength was enough to protect himself against around half of the population in this world. After a while, he stopped thinking about it.

"That Timon guy must be awake by now. Let's see what that Count is planning?" He suddenly remembered Timon and walked out of his room.

...

Timon was sitting in a room with a twisted expression. The man in black clothes and a few other guards were standing around him with their heads hung low.

"So you are saying you won't kill him? Zhouguo, I didn't expect you to defy my order." He raged. After he woke up, he couldn't sit still due to his anger and hatred towards Max and was thinking of ways to get revenge on him.

That's why he called his trusted bodyguards and asked them to assassinate him before Ashton came back, but the man in black refused without a thought.

"I don't dare, young master, but you shouldn't forget that we aren't here to cause trouble, and if we couldn't do what lord Count asked us to, we will get punished." The man called Zhouguo said.

After hearing this, Timon's anger vanished and be nodded. "It's fine then. When the time comes, I'll make sure he will regret being born in this world." He spoke through gritted teeth. Although he wanted nothing more than kill Max, he remembered his father's order and could only endure for now.

"Good morning, young master!" Butler George greeted him politely. Max looked at him and smiled. "Good morning, uncle George."

Butler George suddenly froze, then he beamed a smile and asked, "I heard that young master beat that young master Timon even before he could come here." He felt happy hearing Max call him uncle. When Max was a little kid, He used to call him uncle and play with him, but after his mother died and his talent turned out to be trash, his cheerfulness vanished, and he started to become distant. Now that he again called him Uncle, he felt elated in his heart, but he didn't show it and asked about Timon.

"Hehe, it's nothing. He was bothering me for no reason, so I had to teach him a small lesson, but I didn't expect him to be so weak." Max laughed.

Max suddenly wanted to ask if he knew why his father and Count Wiley had enmity between them but didn't.

Butler George looked at his slight frown and thought he was worried because he beat a count's son and said with a smile, "Young Master, you don't have to worry about it. Lord Viscount and count Wiley already has great hostility, but they just didn't fight openly. Even if you beat him, Count Wiley wouldn't dare to do anything."

Max, who was suppressing his curiosity about it, couldn't hold back anymore and asked, "Uncle George, Why father and that Count are enemies?"
