Strongest Mage with the Lust system-Chapter 787: The Method

Taking a deep breath, he placed one hand on her forehead and another on her chest, right above her heart, and started injecting Nascent Energy into her.

'Oh?!'

He exclaimed in surprise because he didn't face as much difficulty as he thought he would injecting his energy into her.

'Maybe it's because she doesn't have as strong defenses as Golden Python's?' He mused.

'But the Python is in the Five Star realm, while she is an Emperor mage. Shouldn't her natural defense be stronger?'

Right as he thought this, he smiled wryly, 'Why am I thinking as if the Golden Python is an ordinary Five Star beast?'

He clearly remembered the devious Supreme Mage's surprise when he saw its egg in the auction and the scene of it coming out of the spatial crack it had torn open to escape.

Although he had sinister intentions, he was a supreme mage, and the things that could surprise a being like him must be extraordinary. Python proved this point by tearing open space, after all; which other beasts could do the same? Heck, even the mages in the monarch realm weren't able to do it, from what little he knew about the realm.

Seeing how easy it was, Max relaxed a bit and scanned her body. She was badly injured—almost all her inner organs were injured and had stopped functioning. And although he wasn't able to probe her dantian, he could tell it was in a chaotic state.

The only fortunate thing was that she didn't have any foreign energy in her wounds, wreaking havoc, most likely thanks to the elven emperor who patched her up.

'Let's see how effective it is on her.' He thought as the Nascent Energy trickled into her almost squashed heart.

For a while, there was no change, but after thirty seconds had passed, her heart started recovering, albeit very slowly, which thrilled Max.

…

Ha~!

Three hours later, when it had become dark outside, Max exhaled an exhausted breath and removed his hands from her forehead and chest.

Seeing he didn't face much difficulty injecting the Nascent Energy into her body and how her body didn't have any foreign energy to make things difficult for him, he thought he might not need to use up all the energy to help her regain consciousness, but… he was wrong.

After her heart recovered a little, barely beating once per minute, no matter how much Nascent Energy he fed it, it didn't recover any more. He then tried to heal her other organs, but the result was the same. After they recovered slightly, further recovery seemed impossible.

He knew why this was the case—his Four Star Nascent Energy wasn't potent enough to help an existence way beyond his realm. At most, it could make small, insignificant improvements.

Fortunately… These minor improvements were enough.

He looked at her, noticing her eyelids twitch, with a triumphant smile on his face.

'Now let's hope she agrees to use my method of healing.' He thought.

After having sex with his women, who were Two Star, Three Star and Four Star mages, he had noticed something—despite appearing the same, the potency of the Nascent Energy he received from them varied based on how strong they were.

For example, the Nascent Energy he got after having sex with Claire was way less effective than what he got from Emily, and what he got from Lily and Sara was more effective than hers.

Based on this, he theorized that if he had sex with women stronger than him, for example a King Mage, the resulting Nascent Energy should be a lot more effective and might work on King Mages.

So, his plan to heal Granny was simple—he would convince her to have sex with him and would use the produced Nascent Energy to heal her.

Given the current situation of his family and even his own emotional state, he wasn't willing to think about having sex, but he could feel the situation in the coming days was going to be a lot more dangerous. If he wanted to ensure his family didn't suffer any more than it already had, he needed strength.

If he healed Granny, they would have their own emperor mage to deal with situations. Moreover, he hoped Granny wouldn't need all the produced Nascent Energy to heal.

If he could use just a small amount of it-Emperor Grade Nascent Energy-for himself, his improvements would be tremendous.

Just thinking about it made him clench his fists in excitement.

Normally, a Four Star mage like him could at most use Five Star grade resources. Trying to use higher-grade resources would either result in crippling or death.

However, it was not the same case for Nascent Energy. Because it formed from his essence and bloodline, no matter how high grade it was, it wouldn't harm him… or so he hoped.

He looked at her from head to toe.

Though he and Gene called her Granny, she looked barely fifty years old. Because bandages tightly wrapped her, he could see her hourglass figure and firm body, which was quite tempting. Only the wrinkles on her face made her look old and less attractive.

Seeing she was about to regain consciousness, he touched her bandages and controlled his fire elemental mana.

Swish!

In an instant, fire blazed to life and burned the bandages into ashes. While he wasn't able to heal her inner organs properly, he didn't have any problem healing her flesh wounds, so there was no longer a need for bandages.

After blowing away the ashes with a wave of his hand, he took the blanket to cover her when he caught a glimpse of her naked body and raised his brows.

Her body was ripe and plump like a woman in her early thirties, exuding boundless mature charm. Her skin was smooth and lustrous, not wrinkly or sagging. like one would expect after looking at her face.

Then why was her face all wrinkly? This didn't make sense to him.

Shaking his head, he covered her.

After a short while, she slowly regained consciousness and opened her eyes. She blinked a couple of times and adjusted to the light.

She then looked at Max sitting beside her.

"You've returned, son?" She spoke with a warm smile on her face, looking gentle and endearing.

"Yeah, Granny." Max nodded and asked, "How do you feel?"

"Hm?" Hearing his question, she raised her brows before suddenly remembering what had happened before she lost consciousness. Then she checked her condition with her divine sense. Immediately, the light in her eyes dimmed.

"I feel… horrible." She sighed, despondent, and closed her eyes.

Before, although she was injured, her foundation was safe, so she could easily recover as long as he found proper medicine.

Now, however… Not only her mana core and the four ascension pillars she had formed after investing so many resources and time were damaged, but even her dantian was injured—she could no longer recover, which meant even if she had the Thunder Sword now, she wouldn't be able to free her family members.

'All hope is lost.' She felt miserable. Despite this, however, she didn't regret facing off that man even for a second.

People who reached such heights, becoming emperors, had extraordinary states of mind. If they do something, even if it was bad, they would rarely ever regret that decision.

Max focused his bloodline sense on her but couldn't feel her emotions. Still, just from her expression, he could tell what she might be feeling, especially if…

"Your foundation is damaged?" He asked,

"...Yes." She nodded.

"No wonder you are feeling hopeless now."

Granny frowned in displeasure upon hearing his almost careless tone.

Shouldn't he mind his words a bit more, especially when she fell to this state to save his family?

"Can you leave me alone for a—" She began saying when Max interrupted her, almost making her angry, but when she registered what he said, her heart skipped a beat.

"I can heal you…"
