Chapter 694 Fully Functional

"Brother-in-law?" Kriss gave Max a strange look.

Max glanced at him and sighed. "It's a long story. But you don't need to worry about me being a traitor to the human race."

Kriss looked at him in silence for a moment before nodding, "Yeah, you don't look like one."

Max's lips twitched, and he wanted to ask how traitors looked but shook the thought away, thinking, 'He is just a kid.' And turned to Ashroth.

"What are you trying to do?" He asked, his eyes narrowing. If anyone saw him meeting the demons, they would definitely think he was colluding with them... Which wasn't wrong since he had made a deal with Amara's father. But still, no one knew about it, so it was all good.

Ashroth stopped when he was over ten meters away from Max and looked him up and down. "The human emperors treat you well, huh. Do you have a high status or something?"

Max didn't answer and kept staring at him. Last time they met, he had to be careful around him lest he killed him. But now, he was unafraid of him, and from what he could see, it was Ashroth who seemed a little nervous and fearful.

Ashroth raised his brows seeing him not respond to his question. Then he sighed and was about to speak when a hint of shock flashed in his eyes. Nodding subtly, he began speaking in the demon language, "I had no choice but to come to talk to you. Firstly, because I need to establish a form of communication, and secondly, to tell you to show off a little less. But I think there is no use saying it now since both tribes have already taken note of you."

Max could only shrug with a helpless look on his face.

After glancing at Kriss and seeing he had a frown on his face, not able to understand demon language, he took out a communication crystal and threw it toward him, "Here. Only message me when you have something important to tell me."

Saying this, he prepared to leave when Ashroth asked, "How is little Amara? Are you treating her well?"

"She is good and in a safe place. So, don't worry about her. She is my woman now, and I'll keep her safe."

After saying this, he flapped his wings and rushed away. Kriss, after giving Ashroth a curious look, followed after him.

Watching them leave, Ashroth sighed. "Strength really changes one's attitude, huh."

"Alright, let's return." Nôv(el)B\\jnn

After removing Sera and Pauline's, he glanced at the Fullers, who, understanding what he wanted, started coming to him one by one.

Martha, Kriss, and others in their group looked at Max in surprise.

After he was finished with the Fullers, he glanced at them and smiled, "I can help you all if you want."

Kriss didn't hesitate and waved his hand, ordering his people to approach Max. As for him, he didn't have any demonic energy since no demon was able to injure him.

Martha was a little hesitant, but seeing they would not be able to enter the war temple anytime soon since everyone wanted in and since Max didn't seem to have any problem removing the energy, she also ordered her people to get in line.

...

By the time Max finished absorbing the last person's demonic energy, a few people had started coming out of the war temple, looking excited.

"Hm? It seems the temple really has some good resources." Pauline muttered, her eyes sparkling.

She was barely able to stop herself from rushing into the crowd trying to enter the temple.

Crack!

Suddenly, Max heard a faint cracking sound, and his eyes lit up.

Immediately, he waved his hand and conjured an isolation barrier around Lily, Sera, and himself. Then he took out a bed and placed the statue on it before removing his bloodline energy barrier from around it, revealing Emily's cocooned form to Lily and Sera.

The pair's expressions hardened seeing it, and Lily was about to ask why she looked like that when...

Crack!

Another cracking noise resounded.

"Her shell is breaking." Sera pointed out, noticing the cracking on the thick golden layer.
