Chapter 34 Interruption

“How about round two?”

Max had just spoken when someone knocked on the door.

Max looked at the Lilly whose face now had a hint of panic. “What should we do? We will get caught.” Lilly said in panic.

Max shook his head and smiled at her “What’s there to be afraid of? Aren’t you already my woman? So what if we get intimate with each other and others find out.”𝒩𝒐𝚟𝗅xt.𝗇𝓔t

Max then said “I’ll handle it. You should go and take a bath and clean yourself.” Although he didn’t care if others find out about their relationship, he knew that Lilly would not have a easy time when he is not with her. This was also one of the reasons why Lilly rejected his proposal.

Lilly was a bit embarrassed hearing this. As she looked at herself, she was also sweating a lot and her lower area was stained with their juices. She took her clothes and ran toward the bathroom without looking at him in the eye.

Max smiled and shook his head inwardly seeing her feel embarrassed about these little things even after all that they had done. ‘It’s true that girls are strange creatures.’ He thought.

He put on his bathrobe which didn’t do well to cover the tent his half erect penis was making on the bathrobe. He didn’t think much about it and went to open the door.

As He opened the door and he couldn’t help but be surprised a little seeing Esther on his door. He didn’t expect her of all the family members to come looking for him.

Esther, who was standing at the door looked at Max when he opened the door. He was was in his bathrobe so she guessed that he might have just come out of the bathroom but when she noticed that he was sweating and had a boner she raised her brows and felt that this was a little odd.

Although she tried to hide her expression, Max managed to catch it from her eyes that she was wondering what he was doing but he didn’t say anything about it.

He instead asked with a smile “What is it Esther? Do you need something?”

Esther frowned “Isn’t that a little strange to address me by my name?”

“What’s strange about it? If you don’t like it, then tell me how should I address you.” Max said nonchalantly. He called her by her name because he didn’t want to call her mother or stepmother and the second reason was that even though she was in her thirties and was a matured woman, she was also a beauty who looked as if she was barely in her mid twenties. He would feel strange if called her something like stepmother.

Esther shook her head helplessly and said in a cold voice “It’s fine. You can call me whatever you want. I came here to check up on you in case you need my help. As your father isn’t here, I thought I’d help you in case something goes wrong and your father blames me for it as I gave you that scroll.”

Max looked her in the eyes and could see that despite her cold tone, she had a little concern for him in her eyes. He just didn’t know why this was so as he never had any interactions with her and from Lilly he knew that his past self was not any close with her.

He didn’t think much about it and waved his hand and said “Thank you for your concern but I’ve already formed my mana core. I just need to reinforce it for a few weeks.”

When he formed his mana core he got a system massage indicating his success in forming mana core and that he needed to reinforce his mana core for a few a weeks, so that when he increased his mana points using lust points, it would not cause any problems because this was not done by him but system. Until then he couldn’t increase his mana stat.

“You- you already formed your mana core?” Esther looked at him, dumbfounded.

Was it this easy and fast to form a mana core? As far as she knew, normally it would take a full day to form it while some talented ones could do it in half a day. But he was here telling her that he did it in little more than two hours. How can she not find it incredulous?

“You are joking right? There’s no way you can do it in such a short time. Tell me check it.” She didn’t believe him and extended her delicate hand to touch his stomach as she sent her mana inside carefully to check whether he really have a mana core or not.

After a moment, her expression was replaced with one of amazement and then disbelief.

“You really… really did have it.” She mumbled in a low voice while looking at him as if he was a monster.

Max smiled and didn’t speak. He took a step forward and leaned his face toward her and whispered in her ear “You know, it’s not good for a woman to touch a man out of nowhere right? Especially when it’s a beautiful woman like you. Any man would lose control.”

Hearing this, her figure stiffened for a moment when she realised what she did just now. She hurriedly stepped back and when she looked again at him, she noticed that his boner which was supposed to go down was flaring up again.

“Oh, I’m sorry about that. I just find it incredible that you could form your mana core in such a short time.” She then continued “Congratulations, it seems your talent is quite outstanding. Your father would be very happy to hear it” Esther said without showing any emotion on her face. Her previous surprised was nowhere to be seen.

Max smiled awkwardly. He just nodded at her. He wasn’t sure how to respond to her. As he just had sex with Lilly and his dick was still excited and he was trying suppress his desire, but when she without any warning touched him just above his bulging cock, he couldn’t control himself and almost kissed her. Fortunately, she didn’t seem to care much about it.

“Try to strengthen your mana core as much as you can now, as it will be very beneficial in the future.” She completed her sentence, turned around and simply left.

Max stood there looking at her swaying back in a trance, breathing her lingering scent. He then murmured in a low voice “That’s one strange woman.”
