Strongest Mage with the Lust system

Note: Just here to remind you all that Max isn't the original Maxwell Garfield even though he is occupying his body. Also, the world they are in is a magical world where the rules and limitations of our world don't apply.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

As they watched, more and more cracks started appearing in the hard shell, each crack wider and longer than the one before.

A few minutes later, the entire shell was covered in cracks. Then all of a sudden…

Boom!

The shell exploded, sending countless sharp shards flying in all directions.

Just as Max was about to cast a defensive barrier, they all froze midair before flying back toward Emily.

Max raised his eyebrows in concern but didn't try to stop them because he could tell it was the part of her bloodline awakening.

Puff! Puff! Puff!

When they cut into her body, causing blood to erupt out, he doubted his judgment while Lily and Sera gathered their mana to stop the remaining shards. But just then, they noticed a moment after steel-hard shards came into contact with her blood, they melted and got absorbed into her body. Even more surprising, the blood that had flowed out of her wounds acted as if it was conscious and rushed back into her wounds that rapidly healed. In an instant, not even a scratch was visible on her soft skin.

Then more shards slashed into her, causing more wounds, but the same thing happened as before.

"This seems too painful." Sera cringed at the sight and felt relieved that Emily was unconscious. Lily and Max also had the same thoughts. But unbeknownst to them, the moment the golden shell had exploded, she had regained her senses. So, she felt every bit of the pain, but not wanting to make them pity her or feel sad for her, she silently endured it all.

A while later, the last piece of the shell was absorbed into her body.

As they waited, Emily's eyes snapped open, and she jumped to her feet.

Sweeping her gaze across the trio, she focused on Max, her expression turning colder when she saw him staring at her up and down without any shame.

"Done looking?" She asked,

Max reflexively shook his head, "No…" Then realizing what he had said, he hurriedly corrected himself, "I mean yes, no wait. I mean sorry. I didn't mean to."

Lily and Sera stared at him before Sera pinched his waist hard and muttered, "My lord, you are still looking."

"Oh, yeah. Sorry. You get dressed. I will go out." Max coughed awkwardly and finally peeled his gaze away from her body.

Just as he was about to turn around, Emily said, "There is no need."

She then took out a green dress and unhurriedly wore it while Lily and Sera exchanged a look between them.

"You can turn around. I'm dressed." She said,

A disappointed gleam flashed in his eyes hearing her, but he was quick to restrain his thoughts as he turned around and looked at her.

She seemed a little different than before. Her aura was different. It wasn't as cold and seemed more dominant and imperious. Her black pupils had turned vibrant gold just like the tips of her black hair.

She was a beautiful and very appealing woman before too, even with her usually cold and indifferent attitude. But these changes had made her even more charming.

As he stared into her beautiful eyes, he found himself becoming dazed. Then, before he knew it, he took a few steps forward, grabbed her shoulders, and pulled her in his embrace.

"W-What are you doing?!" Emily trembled, and her cold expression that she had barely been able to keep on her face after he saw her naked crumbled.

Max came to his senses and frowned. For a moment, he thought his bloodline had influenced him again but quickly realized this wasn't the case. It was all him.

Immediately, he got a flashback of his first day in this magical world. He remembered the sweet feeling he had when she gave him that golden vitality spirit fruit.

Then he remembered the day she took him to the forest to overcome his fear. He remembered feeling attracted to her when he watched her gracefully slay those magic beasts and scold the knights that dared slight him.

'I fell in love with her from the first day…' He thought, finally realizing it. Heck, now that he thought about it, even the original Max seemed to have deeply hidden feelings for her.

He tightened his hold around her, pulling her deeper into his embrace, and whispered in her ear, "Em, you like me as a man, right?"

Emily went stiff, her heart beating wildly against his chest. She had become so nervous that she wanted to push him away and rush away.

However, she suppressed her nerves knowing she would never be able to confess her feelings to him if she lost this chance and grunted a soft, "En."

Max took a deep breath, his heart also racing, and slowly pulled his upper body away from her. Then, as she looked at him nervously, he leaned in and gently placed his lips on hers, making her eyes go wide.

Behind him, Sera watched them with a small smile. Just like everyone, she had seen how much Emily liked him, and since Max also cared for her a lot and seemed to have feelings for her that he himself didn't seem to know, she was happy to see them confess to each other.

Unlike her, however, Lily, who knew they were siblings, albeit half-siblings, had a complex look on her face.

'Will Lord Ashton and others allow their union?' She thought. Unlike half a year before, she had a wider view of the world, and knew relationships with family members weren't uncommon. Almost all the families that had some decent grade bloodlines preferred to marry their immediate family members to keep their bloodlines pure.

Emily's mind went blank, and an electrifying sensation filled her body when she felt his lips pressed against hers. When she regained her senses, tears of happiness appeared in her eyes, and she hugged him back before leaning into the kiss.
