Strongest Mage with the Lust system

A while later, Max, Emily, Anna, Amara, Maria, Leticia and Belen walked out of the Garfield mansion and headed for the center of the Ninam city, where the city library was.

Whoosh!

They had gone just over 100 meters when a small figure rushed at them behind and jumped Belen, who was walking at the back of the group.

Everyone immediately turned around and Belen was about to attack when she saw it was little Arya. and stopped before holding out her hands to catch her.

"Hehe, big sister, are you going to the library?" She asked, giggling cheerfully.

Seeing her like that, a small smile appeared on Belen's face and she nodded, "Yes." And then asked, despite knowing the answer, "Do you want to come along?"

"Of course. Without me, you guys might get lost in the city." Little Arya snickered.

"Alright. Let's go." Belen nodded and put her down on the ground.

Leticia, who was close to Belen, grabbed her hand and asked, "How did you know we were going out just now? Were you waiting since morning?"

"Hehe, no." Little Arya giggled, "I requested the guards guarding your mansion's gate to inform me as soon as they saw you guys leave."

Amara glanced at her, and smiled fondly, surprising Max, as this was the first time he saw such an expression on her face.

"What is it?" he asked curiously.

"Seeing her, I was reminded of my childhood when I also used to do the same with my big brother." She said, a wistful expression on her face. There was also a tinge of worry in her eyes.

"Don't worry. Your brother will be alright. He isn't weak." Max said, reassuring her. He had asked Quinn about the people of the Bloodwing race and found out that they weren't in the Green leaf kingdom but had gone to invade other kingdoms and empires. That's why Amara couldn't contact him.

"Mm. I hope so." She nodded.

Emily glanced between Max and Amara, her eyes flickering.

After a while, they had arrived in front of a four-story tall, wooden building: the city library.

Rima was already standing there, waiting. She smiled when she saw them and then all of them entered the building after telling the guards at the entrance that Ryan had allowed them.

They seemed to have already gotten orders and allowed the group entry without any problem.

"Hus—Max, what kind of spells you want?" Rima asked, blushing a little because she had almost called him husband. Fortunately, no one, except Maria, noticed this.

"Movement techniques." Max answered.

"Okay. Let me bring you there." She said before turning to Emily and others, "On the first floor, there are only basic grade one and grade two spells. On the second floor are grade three, which most you would need. And on the third and fourth floor are grade four and grade five spells. So, let's head to the second floor."

Max glanced at Maria and Anna, who were both two-star mages, "You guys look around here and see if there is any suitable spell for you."

Anna had an unresigned expression on her face and huffed. "Fine." She wished nothing more than to breakthrough to the three-star realm as soon as possible.

Maria, however, calmly nodded. Although she already had all the spells, she needs thanks to Rima's status as the only king ranked mage's disciple, she still stayed with Anna to accompany her.

The group arrive on the second floor and dispersed to find something suitable for them. Only Amara stayed with Max and Rima.

Rima glanced at her and asked, "Why aren't you looking for a suitable spell? They have quite good ones here."

"I don't any," Amara responded, which made Rima frown.

Max looked around to see if there was anyone near them, leaned over to her and whispered in her ear, "She is a… demon."

Rima froze and looked at Max wide eyed. "Y-You… she… are you joking?" She asked, finding it difficult to believe.

Max shrugged, "No. Now, let's go and look for spells, shall we?" He asked.

Rima nodded without saying anything. Her eyes were glued to Amara, deep in thought.

Feeling uncomfortable under her gaze, Amara said, "Master isn't lying."

Rima didn't say anything and just nodded. She knew he wasn't lying, but it was just too hard to digest for her. Her man had a demon subordinate following him and from what she could feel, their relationship was more than just master and servant.

Max was surprised when she didn't ask anything.

Under her lead, they quickly arrived in front of a large bookshelf that had over 50 spell books.

"Here you go. These are the best grade three movement technique you can find in the Green leaf and other nearby kingdoms. See if any of these suit you." Rima said.

Max nodded. Glancing around, he quickly located the [Fire elemental technique] section. There weren't many books, only five.

All books had a number written under them. It was the required contribution points which one needed to take it out and learn. Max didn't need to pay anything, of course.

He directly went for the book, which required the highest number of contribution points, and opened it.

[Phoenix's Wings: Uses fire elemental mana to form phoenix wings through the method written below. When the user attains basic mastery over the techniques, he can increase his maximum speed by three-folds. Circulation method: Channel your elemental mana…]

After reading it, he couldn't help but sigh emotionally, "It's a very powerful technique. Unfortunately, this is only the first part and I can only attain basic—"

Suddenly, he stopped when he remembered what the system had told him. To confirm it, he mentally asked, 'System, this technique only has the basic circulation method. In normal cases, it shouldn't be possible to attain a mastery level higher than basic mastery. However, from what you previously told me, I don't need the higher level of circulation and just need to increase my mana output, is that right?'

[That's correct, host. However, even with the system's assistance, just based on this basic circulation method, it's maximum potential won't exceed an ordinary grade 6 movement technique.] The system answered.

Max frowned when he heard this and asked, 'Didn't you say even the ordinary spells could be strong enough to threaten a supreme mage as long as I provide it with enough mana?'

[Yes, host. That's applicable to the spells that have a fixed circulation and channeling method which this technique doesn't have.]

Hearing this, he put the book back and picked another. He wanted a technique which he wouldn't need to change in the future.
