Chapter 202 Conflicted Anna

Jasmine looked at him deeply. She was surprised that he wasn't affected by her three-star realm aura.

'How can a measly two-star mage resist, no ignore my aura?' She thought. After all, the aura 'matures' when one reaches the three-star realm, which could easily suppress most of the lower realm mages and beasts.

Seeing her confused look, Max snickered in his heart. 'How can your early-stage three-star realm aura suppress me when I've already experienced the aura suppression of someone in the six-star and peak seven-star?'

"It's good that you understand." Jasmine nodded. She then proceeded to wrap a piece of clothing over her naked body.

"I'm going to take a bath. If you also want to clean your body, wait until I'm finished." Saying this, she entered the bathroom on the left side of the room.

Sending her away with his eyes, he flopped on the bed. His body was stained in sweat and their fluids, so he also needed a bath.

While waiting for her to come out, he opened the system shop and entered the [Magic Spells] section.

A list of spells appeared in front of him. He quickly found the grade-three sound elemental spell called [Sonic Annihilation].

According to its description, it was a peak tier grade-three spell, and when comprehended to its Maximum level, it was even stronger than grade-four spells of different elements.

However, simply having the sound element wasn't enough to learn it. One needed to have quite a high level of understanding of the element.

'It is going to be very difficult for Rima to learn this spell.' Max sighed.

He knew that her comprehension of the sound element was shallow because she didn't have any sound elemental spells and had even learned more than a few non-elemental spells.

He then tapped on the unlock, and instantly its detailed chant started imprinting in his mind.

"Ugh!" He felt a bit of pain but was surprised to notice that it was comparatively lower than when he unlocked [Calidus Brachium].

'It must be because my intelligence stat is higher now.' He determined.

In just a few moments, the process was done. He then proceeded to check out some other spells for Leticia and Belen.

When he wanted to check some spells for Anna, he paused. 'Wait! I don't even know what her element is.'

He then browsed through some other things. He found a grade-two pill that could help strengthen mana core, but its unlocking cost was 25,000 LPs.

'Fuck, does this system want to rip me off or something?' Max cursed in his heart. Moreover, he found that the pill he bought the last time was greyed out.

After asking the system, he discovered that everything in the system shop could be bought only once.

'If I need some medicine, I should buy it from outside and keep the system shop as a last resort.' Max thought.

He then entered the magic artifact section.

'Sigh! Why is everything here so expensive!' He sighed. The weapons were even more expensive than the medicine.

He then shook his head and returned to the magic spells section.

After unlocking [Sonic Annihilation] for 55,000 LPs, he still had more than seventy thousand LPs left. So, he wanted to unlock the grade-three spell, [Defensive Flame].

Although his destructive power was excellent, his defensive power was almost zero, and in a fight to the death, there were always situations where one couldn't dodge or evade. So, he very much needed this.

Just as he clicked on unlock, fifty-thousand LPs vanished, and once again, he felt the pain in his head.

After a while, another spell appeared in his mind. Looking at it, he was delighted. Finally, he didn't have to worry too much about defense now.

Just then, Jasmine came out. So, he closed the system window and went to take a bath.

…

While Max was with Jasmine, In his room, Anna lay on the bed with a paper note in her hand and murmured with a sleepy face, "It's going to be morning soon? What is he doing this late in the night?"

Suddenly she sat up and murmured, "Don't tell me he… No, this can't be."

She had finished cultivating two hours after Max had left.

When she didn't see him in the room, she became worried. Although after Finding the note, she stopped worrying and tried to sleep; for some reason, she couldn't sleep for long.

Therefore, she had been waiting for him to come back until now.

Creak~

After a while, she heard the sound of the door opening.

She immediately turned to look and saw Max. He hadn't even entered the room properly when she jumped out of bed and hugged him.

On the other hand, Max was surprised by this. However, soon he remembered that she had developed the habit of sleeping with him, and now that he had returned from the outing, her habit had returned.

"Where were you, and why did you come so late?" She asked grumpily.

"I needed to do something. However, I left you a note. Why are you still awake?" He lovingly caressed her back and changed the topic.

"I-I don't know," Anna said weakly and burrowed her face in his chest.

Max smiled, seeing her becoming embarrassed to say the reason. However, he also sighed in relief that he successfully evaded her questioning.

"Let's go." Max suddenly lifted her in princess carry, causing her to cry out in surprise, and her face flushed red.

After Max had kissed her, her feelings became complicated. She unconsciously started to see him as a man, which she herself hadn't realized yet.

"I-I can walk." She said and tried to come down, but Max didn't let her and took her to the bed and gently lay her down.

Thump! Thump!

Her heart started to beat faster, and her face revealed a panicked expression.

Max saw this, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

"Let's sleep now." He yawned and lay beside her before closing his eyes.

Phew!

Anna exhaled a deep breath and calmed down. Looking at his face, she thought, 'Why did I react like this? It's normal for a brother and sister to be this close, right?'

She then tried to move closer to him to sleep, but her heart started racing once again, and she stopped in her tracks before trying to move away.

Max noticed these movements as he wasn't asleep yet. He exten

ded his hand and brought her in his embrace.
