Chapter 499 Irresistible
499 Irresistible
[Come to my room.]
Old granny’s voice sounded in his head as soon as he stepped inside the mansion.
He had expected it, so he wasn’t surprised and went over to her room. As soon as he arrived in front of her room, the door opened on its own and he stepped inside.
“Kid, do you know you are playing with fire here?” Old granny, who was sitting crossed legged on her bed, asked with a frown on her face.
“Don’t worry, grandma. No one below the supreme mage realm can recognize her.” Max calmly told her.
“Oh?!” The old granny revealed a surprised expression when she heard this and asked, “Are you sure?”
“Yes.”
The old granny wanted to say something when she suddenly noticed something and asked, “You are injured?”
“Yeah. But nothing to worry about.” Max shrugged.
“Alright. Now tell me, why and how do you even have a demon with you? Is she one of the scouting demons that arrived before the demon army?” She asked, curiously.
Max thought for a moment, “Yeah. You can think so.”
“What is that supposed to mean?” Old granny asked, displeased by his lackluster answer.
“It’s a big story.” Max shrugged.
Old granny narrowed her eyes at him and after a moment she sighed, “Is she safe to keep with you? From what I could see, there isn’t any slave seal or something like that to control her.”
Hearing this, Max’s lips curled up, “Don’t worry, grandma. She is absolutely loyal to me.”
Old granny sighed, seeing that he didn’t even want to tell why she was loyal, not that she cared about it much.
“Alright. But you can never be too careful with demons.” She said.
“Yes, grandma.” Max nodded and then excused himself.

Max arrived at his room. He wanted to rest and recover before the family dinner so his family member wouldn’t worry, but he doubted that those grade three healing pills can heal all of his injuries in a few hours.
But to his surprise, before the dinner time, almost all of his injuries had healed, leaving no scars.
‘Is this also because of the system’s bloodline?’ He thought excitedly. He couldn’t wait for the day when this bloodline fully integrated with him, so he could see just how extraordinary it was.
He then went to the bathroom, took a bath, and wore fresh clothes.
Just then,
Knock! Knock!
“Big brother Max. Come out for the dinner.” Little Arya’s voice resounded from outside.
Feeling surprised that she was here for the dinner instead of having it with her family, Max walked over, opened the door and saw little Arya, Rima and Anna standing there talking and laughing with each other.
Whoosh!
Little Arya threw herself at Max, and he quickly held her, patting her back.
“Won’t your parents be angry that you are here instead of being with them at the dinner time?”
“Hehe. No, they won’t be because they are also here. It’s your family’s first day here, so mother wanted to have dinner with you guys.” Little Arya giggled happily.
“I see. Let’s go then.” He said, leading the all three girls to the dining hall.
When he arrived there, everyone from his family, Garima, old granny and Gene, Amara, and Arya’s parents’, grandparents and Aria, Rima’s teacher, were sitting around the big dining table, talking to each other.
Max greeted everyone before looking at Anna and asked, “Where is Maria? You didn’t invite her?”
“Hm? That beautiful elf girl? She told me she would be having dinner with her parents. But I think she is just too shy to be here.” Anna answered. 𝒐𝐯𝒍𝒩xt.𝐜𝒪𝔪
A while later, they finished having dinner.
Little Arya’s mother, Elena, gave a storage ring to Esther.
“It’s a little meeting gift for your family.”
“There is no need for this, city Lord. You letting us live here is already a big favor.” Esther said.
Elena shook her head, put the ring in Esther’s hand, and smiled. “First of all, you don’t have to call me city Lord. Call me sister Elena if you don’t mind. Secondly, don’t think we are doing you guys any favor because not only is Max our benefactor, but also all of your presence brings more safety to the city.”
“As for this gift, it isn’t much. There are just some mana stones for you guys to cultivate and some healing medicine which might be able to help Sir Garfield. So, don’t refuse.”
Hearing this, Esther didn’t refuse any longer and thanked her.
Elena then glanced at Max and gave him a charming smile. “I heard you killed five three-star demons today and saved our warriors. Thank you for that.”
“There is no need to thank me for that city l- aunt Elena. It was my duty.” Max said, averting his eyes. He didn’t want to be charmed by her smile, especially since Ryan was glaring at him.
“No, I have to. My city doesn’t have many three-star warriors so their lives matter a lot to us,” Elena said and then glanced at Ryan, who took out a storage pouch and threw it at Max.
Max caught it and check it with his mana sense. There were a few thousand mana stones and a wooden box.
“We reward our city’s warriors for every demon they kill. So, that’s your reward. As for that box, it’s my husband’s gift to you,” Elena said.
“What’s in it? Spirit fruits?” Max asked, curious.
“No. There are a few grade-four foundation strengthening pills. These should help you.” Elena said.
Hearing this, Max cast Ryan a grateful glance and bowed slightly. “Thank you, uncle.”
“Hm. Use them well and improve your strength. Besides, I heard you don’t have any movement technique? You can go to our army’s library and choose a suitable technique.”
Ryan said and then glanced at Emily, Amara and others, “Take them with you. They can also see if there is something suitable for them.”
“Thank you. I’ll do that.” Max nodded happily. He could save the precious SPs if he could find a suitable movement technique from in the library.
Anna, Rima and Emily also nodded. Only Amara was unfazed because there was a difference between the demon and other races’ spells and techniques. So, she knew she won’t find anything suitable for her there.
—
After the elves went away and his family members also returned to their rooms, Max, Anna, Rima, Leticia and Amara arrived at the garden at the back of the mansion for a stroll. Max wanted Belen to come to, but she refused.
“How’s your mother?” Max asked Leticia.
“She is a bit overwhelmed.” She said, sighing.
“That’s understandable. Take care of her.” Max nodded.
They did some small talk and then returned to their rooms.
Just a short while after they returned,
Knock! Knock!
Someone knocked on Max’s door. Opening the door, he saw Rima standing there in a beautiful red, frilly night dress. It was quite short as it barely covered her thighs, and her round and perky breasts were perfectly and sensually outlined.
Seeing her like this, he recalled Jasmine, who used to dress like this. Although she looked sexy in those dresses, Rima was on another level. She looked… irresistible.
Rima’s velvety lips curled up into a charming smile when she saw his dazed look. She took a step closer to him, pressing her hot body against his, and whispered in his ear,
“Aren’t you going to invite me in?”
Max took a deep breath to stop himself from pushing her down right there.
Whoosh!
He put his arm around her slim waist and under her knees, lifting her in princess carry and rushed inside while kicking the door behind him close.
