Chapter 25: Fighting Silver wolf
When Max with Lilly entered the manor which was now half-destroyed, he could see many corpses of beasts, guards and knights littered around.
Boom!
They heard fighting sounds coming from the back area of the manor. They hastily went over.
When they reached there, they saw butler George fighting the same silver wolf they saw in the forest. Butler George was barely holding himself against the silver wolf which indicated that the silver wolf was very strong compared to a normal two star beast because butler George was a peak two star mage.
Butler George had deep claw marks on his chest and blood was gushing out of the wound. His left hand was also bleeding. As for the wolf, its silver fur was glistening in white which provided it a great defence against magic attacks so butler George's spells were not as effective as they should be against it. Even so the silver wolf wasn't unharmed. Its front paws were bleeding and it had bloody wounds all over its body. its sliver fur were dyed red in blood.
Growl~
Max's attention was soon attracted by the beasts' growl from the side. When he looked there, his expression hardened.
His three-step mothers and sisters-in-law were surrounded by a group of more than twenty beasts. Their normal beautiful and elegant appearance were now haggard. Amelia, Anna's mother was lying on the ground, her torso was ripped and blood was gushing out of it. Layla, Mark's wife was using her healing magic to heal her injury.
Esther and Mina were casting their spells and killing the beasts who came close to them while Lacey, Layla and Eva were surrounding and protecting Amelia and Layla as she healed her.
Esther, Amelia and Mina were two-starred mages. Esther like her cold nature was an ice type mage and was the strongest among Ashton's wives. Amelia was a half-awakened light type mage, Which meant that she could only use her light type magic at a very low level, thus limiting her strength. Mina was a strong earth type mage.
As for Lacey and Eva, they were only one starred mage and haven't awakened their elements yet. Therefore they could only assist their mothers in law by casting non-elemental magic.
...
...
A one-starred ape, with bulky body and seven feet height rushed in the direction of Esther with its both hand raised high to make a two-handed slam with the intent to crush her tiny head into a paste.
Esther's eyes flashed coldly and she raised her right hand above her head. An ice sword appeared above her hand which shot at a fast speed and penetrated the ape's skull with ease. A two starred mage possessed a very high quality and concentration of mana compared to one starred mage.
Thud!
Its movement stalled after running a few feet more and it collapsed with a thud on the ground, dead. Esther's face turned paler. Although she was a two starred mage, she had been fighting for more than an hour now and had consumed most of her mana. She looked at others and sighed. Everyone seemed to be running short on their mana reserves. Luster in her eyes becoming darker. All the hope was getting distant now.
Mina, who had also realised the situation they were in, greeted her teeth and squeezed out every last bit of her mana to cast another spell.
"Earth golems!"
Six, about eight feet tall golems made of mud appeared around her. She waved her hand and six golems charged at the group of beasts. Her petite body fell on the ground, exhausted. She could only hope for butler George to help them or Ashton to quickly finish his fight and come save them but how could a peak three-star beast go down so easily.
Lacey and Eva were casting their spells and conjuring different types of mana weapons to attack the beasts. but from the situation, one could easily tell that they won't last against more than twenty beasts, of which two of them were two-starred beasts.
...
Max who observed the situation after arriving at the scene couldn't help but be amazed at how different this world was. Although he liked this world due to how easily he could get the things he previously wanted, he was repulsed by all the bloodshed he has seen till now.
He shook his head and stopped thinking about it. For the better or worse he was here and going to spend the rest of his life in this world. It would be best if he could get used to the strangeness of this world.
Although Max had a few flaws such as his high sexual desires and after waking up here and getting the treatment of a prince, he wanted to spend his life enjoying himself without doing anything. He was by no means stupid to keep entertaining that kind of mentality especially after witnessing the reality of this world and realising how his father's words were correct.
He opened his status window and added all his accumulated lust points to mana stats. He couldn't be bothered to think if he would need to go through the same process to rise to a upper level mage as other people or not.
This situation didn't allow him to think of that. His stepmothers and others could no longer hold themselves against the beasts and George was also slowly being overwhelmed by the two-starred silver wolf.
More than ten thousand lust points vanished and his mana points increased by more than a thousand points. He could feel his body brimming with mana. His previously exhausted mana was also replenished.

Max ignored the warning message and rushed at the group of beasts surrounding the women while conjuring a big fireball.
