'Is this guy a monster?' Synthia was honestly taken back by the sight of him.
"Splash!"
Max even though was trying to hold himself, it wasn't working. He was immediately forced down on one of his knees with blood spilling out of his mouth. A Grandmaster's hit certainly felt different. This was the first time that he had felt himself getting utterly destroyed in a single hit.
'Goddamn…this body..' Max cursed himself.
'You don't realize, but you probably have one of the strongest bodies in all of humankind..' Andriel muttered with a sigh. She really didn't like him pushing himself while putting his own life in danger.
But, she couldn't say anything to him.
He had done the same with her. When she was in danger, he went all the way and did what he could do to save her. That was what had got her to him, so she couldn't hate that quality of him even if she tried to.
"Stay down." Synthia reluctantly got a hold of him. Even if she didn't like this guy, the situation didn't call for that. They couldn't lose their commander mid way. That would certainly affect everyone's mood.
"Help me up.." Max muttered with a heavy breathing.
'Just how hungry is he for fame..' Synthia muttered inwardly. She couldn't understand it any other way than this. After all, it made no sense for him to be so determined to kill that guy when anyone could literally do the same.
There was no need to put himself in danger like this.
Besides, she wouldn't mind giving him the credit for it. After all, she was not so fickle minded.
'This girl..' Max was starting to get pissed.
She really wasn't listening. And, Max could definitely understand her thought process as well.
'F*ck this!'
In the end, he raised his hand ahead and pushed it against the ground trying to move forward. Even if he had to crawl, he would do it.
But, he began to feel trouble brewing when he began to feel light headed. He knew he definitely wouldn't last long.
"Fine! I will do it!" Synthia couldn't watch it at all. She didn't know if she should be impressed by his will power or look down at him for seeking fame at such a level.
In the end, she supported him by his shoulder, and helped him up to the guy.
When Max was finally in front of him, he took the dagger from Twice's mouth and with Twice holding his arms, and directing him, he finally made a slice and the Bald man's head rolled off. His last tiny life force which was soon about to extinguish, immediately ran out.
Max finally laid onto the ground in relief. With the task was done, he felt his body lose all his senses once again.
And this time, it wasn't going to return even if he tried his best. He had crossed his limits long ago.
Synthia looked at the scene with a weird look on her face. She really didn't know what Max wanted to do here.
Did he want to tell people he sliced off the head of a Grandmaster Tier Mage?
Well, that might sound funny in this situation, but everyone would think the same.
Max, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly had his expression changed into a grim one.
His clone was destroyed.
"Twice.." He muttered in a low voice.
The next instant, Twice immediately jumped into action.
He immediately grabbed onto Synthia's dress with it's jaws. She definitely wasn't prepared for this.
Synthia was immediately pulled onto Twice's back, and before she knew it, it had already brought him a distance away from Max.
'Are you serious? Is he trying to make it appear as if I wasn't even there?' She looked at Max in the distance with wide eyes.
But that thought of her only lasted for a few seconds when she felt a tremendous energy explode in the distance.
The next instant, a white flash of light rose into the sky from one end of the battle field and came right crashing towards Max.
'Is that a Supreme?' Her eyes were wide open.
She definitely didn't think that person was here to help. After all, she was well aware about the Arts of the Ancient Families and the kind of energy they nurtured within their bodies. And, this was definitely different.
'Did he send me away to save me?' Synthia suddenly frowned. That wasn't something that she was expecting.
…
Max looked at the white light coming straight down towards him. He had sent Synthia away, and didn't escape himself because he was sure that the guy would come after him.
Why?
Well, the clone was his.
Max was sure that he wouldn't be able to fool the sense of a Supreme Tier Mage if that guy was serious on trying to find him. After all, these guys were monsters at another level.
As for Synthia, no matter how much trouble they had in between them, her help today was definitely enough for Max today to look all over that. If he hadn't succeeded today, and was also unable to find any lead to Lear's condition, he definitely would have regretted it his entire life.
"Boom!"
The white light finally crashed in front of Max, and he was sent flying away and puked more blood out. This was really taking a toll on him.
How long had it been seen he was forced into such a state?
Max wasn't sure, but it sure had been pretty long if you asked him.
"So, it was you brat!!" A raging voice rang out in the surroundings as a man walked out of the white light.
It was the old man.
He was carrying Freya on her shoulder.
She was glaring at Max with blood thirsty eyes. She couldn't believe this guy had used her as bait. Thankfully, she had directed this Old man towards this brat, otherwise he might have killed her in anger.
This was definitely some serious trouble that he had put her into.
"It's time for some answer kids…" The old man smiled, as Max felt the temperature around him rising and he started to feel his skin burning. It was the same thing that the Bald man had gone through.
