When Max with Lilly entered the manor which was now half-destroyed, he could see many corpses of beasts, guards and knights littered around.
Boom!
They heard fighting sounds coming from the back area of the manor. They hastily went over.
When they reached there, they saw butler George fighting the same silver wolf they saw in the forest. Butler George was barely holding himself against the silver wolf which indicated that the silver wolf was very strong compared to a normal two star beast because butler George was a peak two star mage.
Butler George had deep claw marks on his chest and blood was gushing out of the wound. His left hand was also bleeding. As for the wolf, its silver fur was glistening in white which provided it a great defence against magic attacks so butler George's spells were not as effective as they should be against it. Even so the silver wolf wasn't unharmed. Its front paws were bleeding and it had bloody wounds all over its body. its sliver fur were dyed red in blood.
Growl~
Max's attention was soon attracted by the beasts' growl from the side. When he looked there, his expression hardened.
His three-step mothers and sisters-in-law were surrounded by a group of more than twenty beasts. Their normal beautiful and elegant appearance were now haggard. Amelia, Anna's mother was lying on the ground, her torso was ripped and blood was gushing out of it. Layla, Mark's wife was using her healing magic to heal her injury.
Esther and Mina were casting their spells and killing the beasts who came close to them while Lacey, Layla and Eva were surrounding and protecting Amelia and Layla as she healed her.
Esther, Amelia and Mina were two-starred mages. Esther like her cold nature was an ice type mage and was the strongest among Ashton's wives. Amelia was a half-awakened light type mage, Which meant that she could only use her light type magic at a very low level, thus limiting her strength. Mina was a strong earth type mage.
As for Lacey and Eva, they were only one starred mage and haven't awakened their elements yet. Therefore they could only assist their mothers in law by casting non-elemental magic.
...
...
A one-star ape, with a burly body and seven feet height, rushed in the direction of Esther with both hands raised high to make a two-handed slam with the intent to crush her tiny head into a paste.
Esther's eyes flashed coldly. She raised her right hand, and an ice sword appeared materialized in the next instant, which then shot toward the ape and penetrated its skull with ease.
Thud!
The ape collapsed on the ground after running a few feet more, dead. Esther's face turned paler. Although she was a two-star mage, she had been fighting for more than an hour now and had consumed most of her mana.
She looked at others and sighed. Everyone seemed to be running short on Mana. The luster in her eyes became darker. All the hope was getting distant now.
Mina, who had also realized the situation they were in, gritted her teeth and squeezed out every last bit of her mana to cast another spell.
Earth golems!
Six, about eight feet tall, earth golems appeared around her. She waved her hand, and all charged at the group of beasts. After the cast, all her Mana and stamina were exhausted. She could only hope for butler George to help them or Ashton to quickly finish his fight and come save them but how could a peak three-star beast go down so easily?
Lacey and Eva were casting their spells and conjuring different types of mana weapons to attack the beasts. but from the situation, one could easily tell that they won't last long against more than twenty beasts, two of which were two-star beasts.
...
Max observed the situation after arriving at the scene and couldn't help but be amazed at how different this world was. Although he liked this world due to how easily he could get the things he needed, he was repulsed by all the bloodshed he had seen till now.
He shook his head and stopped thinking about it. For the better or worse, he was here and going to spend the rest of his life in this world. It would be best if he could get used to the strangeness of this world.
Although Max had a few flaws, such as his high sexual desires and after waking up here and getting the treatment of a prince, he wanted to spend his life enjoying himself without doing anything. He was by no means stupid to keep entertaining that kind of mentality, especially after witnessing the reality of this world and realizing how his father's words were correct.
He opened his status window and added all his accumulated lust points to mana stats. He couldn't be bothered to think if he would need to go through the same process to rise to an upper-level mage as other people or not.
This situation didn't allow him to think of that. His stepmothers and others could no longer hold themselves against the beasts, and George was also slowly being overwhelmed by the two-starred silver wolf.
More than ten thousand lust points vanished and his mana points increased by more than a thousand points. He could feel his body brimming with mana. His previously exhausted mana was also replenished.

Max ignored the warning message and rushed at the group of beasts surrounding the women while conjuring a big fireball.
