Chapter 114 Anna’s Death?

Chapter 114 Anna's Death?

[ The lust system was created by a supreme mage who was at end of his lifespan and couldn't progress further. This system gathers the elusive energy, that is created when both 'Yin' and 'Yang' merges, the Nascent energy, in form of Lust points. ]

[ As for why you have it, is because host was confidently found worthy. When the lust system came into being, it took form of energy and drifted around, searching for a person without any mana in their body and a strong soul. When the energy form of the system came into contact with host's abnormally strong soul and the other condition was also met, it merged with the host, granting host with the lust system. ]

The system explained. After Max heard the lust system's origin, he was flabbergasted. He then asked, "Is that supreme mage still alive? And what was his reason behind creating such system?"

[...]

This time system didn't reply. After waiting for more than five minutes, Max realised that either system didn't know the reason or didn't want to tell him.

Therefore, he didn't bother thinking about the reason as it will be of no benefit, and asked "System, You said that when Yin and Yang merges, you meant when I've s.e.x. with a woman right?"

[ Yes host. ] This time system's reply was instantaneous.

"So, the system turns that created energy into LPs for me to use. However, does it affect the woman who I have s.e.x. with, in any way?" Max asked.

[ Yes, host. ]

"How?"

[ Because this energy is created when both Yin and Yang energies merges, the partner of host as the source of the Yin energy, is also given small part of the Nascent energy by the system. However it is very small part and Nascent energy's has tendency to dissipate after some time of creation if not refined. Therefore, if the host's partner refines this energy, they will be able to benefit from this. ]

'So it's just like the dual cultivation mentioned in novels.' Then a sudden thought crossed his mind and curse in frustration 'F.u.c.k., if I knew this earlier, Lilly would've benefitted from this.'

Remembering Lilly, he drifted in the memories of her and wondered 'I wonder how she is doing on that Ice sovereign mountain. However, from the attitude of that white haired woman, she seemed to care about her and with her strength, she won't let anyone mistreat her right?'

Shaking his head to stop worrying about her, he asked again "Tell me, how do I use this inventory?"

[ To store things, Host only need to be in contact with the desired object host wants to store and then simply think about storing that object in the inventory. To take the stored things out, host only need to think and it will be done. ]

Hearing this, Max took out his gold coins from the spatial bag and thought about storing them.

In the next moment, around a thousand gold coins were stored in the inventory. He then thought of taking them out and they appeared in front of him once again.

'It's very convenient huh!' He then tried to store his spatial bag but couldn't. After asking the system he found out that because the spatial bag a small spatial pocket in it, it couldn't be stored. Therefore, he emptied his spatial bag and put every in the inventory.

'Let's see what the 'shop' has to offer now.' His expectations were very high after knowing that this system was made by a supreme mage.

After closing the inventory, he clicked on shop and a new window opened in front of him. There were three options appeared in front of him:

? [ Magic spells ]

? [ Magic artefacts ]

? [ Magical medicine ]

Max clicked on [ Magic spells ], and another window appeard. There were at least a dozen spells of each element. However to his disappointment, everything was greyed out.

He clicked on one spell and system's monotonous voice sounded.

[ Ding. Host needs hundred thousand Lust points to unlock the Grade five earth golem spell. ]

'Hundred thousand?' Max twisted his lips. How many times would he need to have S.e.x. to gather so many LPs.

However, his attention was soon attracted by the grade of the skill 'Grade five? Weren't these spells were divided among low, mid and high grades with each grade having three sub tiers? How come this spell is graded as grade five?'

He then clicked on some others and found out that all of them were of different grades, ranging from grade one to nine. Each spell had different price.

'Well, let's see what other sections has to offer.' Max didn't think much about it as the grading standards has been changed in past few thousand years. He then proceeded to click on the [ Magical artefacts ].

Just like spells, there were many magical and elemental artefacts too. However there were only a few artefacts above grade seven same as spells.

The same was in the [ Magical Medicine ]. There were many different types of medicine, pills, potions etc. However because he didn't have enough LPs to unlock anything, he couldn't determine how these grades relates to the current grades.

This made him regret not having s.e.x. with Eva after Lilly had left. 'I should try and raise my LPs to buy some fire elemental spells. Only Fireball wouldn't be enough anymore.'

Thinking about this, Flavia's image surfaced in his mind. However, he shook his head. He was sure that if he made a move on her, she would definitely lash out and stop speaking to him and it wasn't as if he could force himself on her. Ever if he could, he wouldn't do such thing only for the sake of becoming strong.

"Knock! Knock!"

Just as he was lost in his thoughts, someone knocked on his door.

"Young master it's me." Neer called out.

After Max opened the door, he smiled "You sure fast with the work, tell me h-"

Neer shook his head and quickly interrupted him "Young master, I was going to the third peak to find out the bed's price. However, I heard that the group of outer disciples who went on a mission a while ago has returned just now. However..."

"However what?" Max was startled to hear this unexpected news but soon a smile appeared on his face and when Neer stopped speaking, that smile vanished and his expression became bad. He forcefully clasped Neer's shoulder and asked.

"Y-Young master, there seems to be some casualties among them. However I couldn't find out if the one who you were searching for was... Therefore I came to find you as soon as I heard this." Neer said.

Max's expression became grim, an ominous feeling arising in his heart. He bolted out of the room at his full Speed and went towards the Mission hall where the group should be if they just returned, reporting the results of the mission.

Neer also followed behind. He knew that when Max arrived, on the first day he asked around for an outer sector disciple and found out that she was out on a mission with a group.

In a few minutes, he reached the mission hall and was a group of people in tattered clothing. They seemed very Haggard. He quickly scanned them to see find Anna. However he didn't saw her among them, which made his expression even more grim.

He walked in front of them and asked, his voice shaking "What happened to Anna?"

If Maxwell's memories hadn't merged with him, he wouldn't have such reaction even though she was nice to him since the day one. However, now he considered someone very close to him.

The girl in front of the group frowned and snapped coldly "Who are you? Don't you know it's not polite to stop someone like-"

Swoosh!

However before she could complete her sentence, Max appeared in front of her and clenched her neck with one hand "I asked what happened to Anna."

No one expected Max to react in such a way, the other disciples in the group prepared to attack him. There were a total of six people in the group including the girl whose neck, he was about to crush.

Neer had also come by now. When he saw Max attacking someone out of nowhere, he panicked because there was no fighting allowed in the academy. And if someone did fight, they will be punished heavily.

"Ugh, bastard release me." The girl shouted as her mana swirled around her intensely.

Max came to his senses and released the girl and asked "Now tell me, what happened to Anna?"

The girl and others glared at him murderously. Four among them were two-star mages. The girl didn't reply but one man among them shouted and prepared to attack him "How dare you treat our leader like that?"

However at this moment, a voice sounded from behind them "What's happening here?"
