Novel Full Chapter 363 Daring Movements
After she calmed down, she couldn’t help but ask, “Didn’t Max ask us to prevent that crazy guy from joining the fight? How can we do that if we run away?”
“You don’t need to worry about it. We’ve already accomplished our task. Look behind you.” Belen calmly replied as she increased her speed.
Hearing her, Leticia confusedly turned her head around and saw Jack on his flying beast chasing after them. There was a disgusting smile on his face.
“Belen, is he also a three-star mage?” Leticia suddenly asked.
“No. If he was, Max wouldn’t have asked us to keep him busy.” Belen shook her head.
“Very good!” Leticia nodded and a ruthless expression appeared on her face. She took a deep breath and coldly said, “Let’s kill him when we are some more distance away.”
“That was my plan.”
“Hmm. Release these bindings. I’ll carry you.” Since Belen wasn’t an agility type mage, her top speed was only comparable to Leticia’s normal speed.
Seeing that Leticia had calmed down, Belen released the vines.
Whoosh!
As soon as vines vanished, Leticia grabbed Belen’s hand, used her wind elemental Mana to boost her speed, and zoomed away. The distance that was shortening between them and Jack increased again.
Jack sneered upon seeing this. Lazily, he patted the black-winged hawk, who increased its flying speed to keep up with the ladies. He wasn’t going to try to capture them since he wasn’t sure if he was stronger than the duo. So, he was chasing them just so they wouldn’t hide somewhere and escape.
…
Max wasn’t surprised when Belen chose to ran away with Leticia. Among all his women, Belen was the smartest one and she could keep her calm, even in the direst situation.
With her smarts, seeing through Jack’s intentions wasn’t too difficult for her. He wanted to kill Max and capture them for whatever nasty purpose he had. She easily saw through it and knew if they chose to run away, he would definitely chase after them, leaving Max to his two three-star companions.
Max wasn’t worried about them as long as they weren’t up against a three-star mage.
He turned his attention to the three-star mages’ who were about to attack him. Before they could completely cast their spells, Max took out two grade-three talismans; one defensive and one offensive.
He crushed the offensive talisman and threw it toward the two old men while keeping the defensive one in his hand.
Boom!
A boom resounded in the air as a peak three-star mage’s full-fledged attack flew toward the duo in the shape of a punch.
“Damn it. This kid has an offensive talisman.” The thin old man cursed before he sent his Mana weapons flying toward the incoming attack. The other old man also sent his Mana chains at it.
At the same time, both of them deployed some Mana shields in front of them to brace for the impact. They knew their attacks weren’t strong enough to cancel out the incoming attack.
Boom!!
As expected, the punch attack collided into the Mana weapons and chains, destroying them with ease before heading toward the duo.
Boom!
Another boom resounded as their defensive shields were destroyed one by one and they were thrown back tens of meters back, blood dripping from the corner of their mouths.
Max, however, could see that their injuries weren’t anything serious. So, without delay, he took out another offensive talisman. Crushing it, he threw it toward them once again.
Boom!
The duo had yet to recover from the previous attack and neither of them expected Max to throw one grade three talisman after another as if they were some worthless pieces of paper. Therefore, they were caught off guard and the offensive talisman’s attack had already arrived in front of them.
They didn’t have enough time to cast any defensive spells now. They gritted their teeth and took out their respective grade three defensive talismans before crushing them.
Immediately, a bright barrier enveloped them.

Although they were mid-stage three-star elders in the Dalton family, their monthly pay didn’t exceed 10,000 Mana stones because they were already very old and had no hope of further improvement.
So, with their meagre pay, they couldn’t afford to buy a grade three defensive talisman since the cheapest one cost over 20,000 low grade Mana stones, while the offensive ones cost even more.
These defensive talismans they just used were given to them by their young master Jack’s father and were high in quality.
However, because he only gave one to each of them, they always cherished it and were unwilling to use it. That’s why they felt their heart bleed when they used it to defend against a two-star mage no less.
Boom!
Boom!
Two booms resounded as the offensive talisman’s attack landed on them, again throwing them over two hundred meters back.
This time, however, they weren’t injured at all thanks to their defensive talismans. As soon as soon as their feet touched the ground, they immediately recoiled toward Max at full speed, their attack spell already ready.
As soon as they neared Max, they launched their spells mercilessly.
Shing! Shing!
Many sharp Mana weapons and snake-like chains flew toward him, intent to strangle or heck him into pieces.
Max, however, didn’t try to dodge them this time. Crushing the defensive talisman in his hand, he charged head on into the incoming barrage of attacks.
“Has that brat gone insane?” The duo didn’t notice him using the defensive talisman. So they thought he must be having suicidal thought since he was daring enough to charge into their attacks.
Whoosh!
Just when the duo’s attacks were five meters away from Max, his speed suddenly increased by a few folds. He twisted and turned his body, making many nimble movements, he dodged the chains and sharp Mana weapons with skilful accuracy before charging toward the thin old man.
“What?” The duo was taken aback by his daring show of skill.
With his speed boosted by his three-star mana, Max immediately appeared in front of the thin man, and before the old man could react, Max punched toward his head with his burning fist.
He had started casting [Calidus Brachium] the moment he used his first offensive talisman.
Because only a short time had passed since then, he could only inject around 1000-units of three-star Mana. However, even with this much, he was confident that he could blow his head off since humans weren’t like beast who had incredibly strong defence.
A look of terror appeared on the old man’s face as Max’s punched inched closer to his head. He wanted to dodge but there wasn’t enough time for him to do so. He was sure to be hit by this horrendous punch.
He growled defiantly and hastily deployed a few Mana shields in front of him before crossing his hands in front of his face.
