469 Returning to Claymore town [1]
Bang! Bang!
The duo crashed onto the ground, creating small craters.
The Elders looked at this scene and felt cold chills run down their spines and a thought appeared in their minds simultaneously.
‘A king rank mage isn’t something we can face, even if all of us were as strong as the headmaster.’
Cough! Cough!
The headmaster coughed and slowly lifted his body up. The hall master also stood up.
Both of their faces were pale, drained of color. However, it wasn’t because they were severely injured but because they witnessed first-hand how powerful a king rank mage was.
Well… it wasn’t exactly true since the attack just now was a casual one. However, this exactly was what horrified them the most.
“S-Senior…” the headmaster spoke, his voice trembling slightly, but he could only say a single word before Garima interrupted him.
“She is not a demon. So, drop this matter.”
“B-But senior, what if she is?” The headmaster gritted his teeth and asked.
Garima glanced at Amara and then at Max before saying indifferently, “So what if she is?”
After saying this, she glanced at Max and others and waved her hand.
Whoosh!
Immediately, Max and others felt themselves being enveloped by an invisible energy which made them feel as if they didn’t weigh at all.
“Let’s go,” Garima said and flew up. Max and others floated up under her control.
Soon, they had disappeared from everyone’s vision.
The headmaster looked in the direction where they disappeared and muttered, “So what if she is, huh?”
The hall master looked at him and asked, “Headmaster, should we inform the royal family about it?”
The headmaster shook his head. “There is no need to. Let’s just hasten our preparation.”
After a pause, he added, “We’ll inform disciples in three days.”
Hearing this, the hall master frowned, “But that will cause chaos.”
“So what if it will?” The headmaster chuckled and then sighed. “At least they would know what to expect.”
Finished saying this, he flickered inside the academy.

Whoosh! Whoosh!
Within a few minutes, Max’s group arrived a few tens of miles away from the Cloud mountain.
Garima glanced at Max and said, “You guys can head to the Claymore town on your own. With your strengths, you won’t encounter any difficulty. I’m going to bring your other sibling back the different academies back.”
“Thank you!” Max said, feeling grateful.
Although she hadn’t told him why she was here, he could guess Lilly must have sent here her or she was sent on Lilly’s request to make sure they didn’t die when the demons invaded.
Realizing how she was worried about them while being in such a faraway place, Max felt warm and his longing to meet her increased.
“Don’t be. It’s what I’m supposed to do.” Garima shook her head and then added hesitantly, “Remember not to tell me everything you know about my physique when I return. I… will be grateful.”
Hearing this, Max smiled lightly. “Don’t worry, I will.”
“Mm.” Garima nodded and said to Mina, “Let’s go.”
Mina nodded and as they started floating up, she looked at Max and Anna and said, “Be careful on the way, okay?”
“Don’t worry, we will.” Max assured her.
Whoosh!
After they reached some height, both of them whistled through the sky like a rocket.
“How fast!” Anna exclaimed.
Amara glanced at her and smiled good-naturedly. “It’s not. She can fly at least ten times faster, but she isn’t because that lady by her side wouldn’t be able to endure it.”
“Oh!” Anna exclaimed in surprise.
She then glanced at Amara, her eyes narrowing slightly, which made Amara frown.
‘Is she doubting my identity?’ She thought.
Anna then turned to Max and asked. “Little Max. Who is she? Why does she call you master?”
“It’s because she is my servant.” Max answered.
When Amara heard this, her eyes drooped a little, but then she heard Max speak again, “However, she can’t be considered one because I have taken her as my woman.”
Hearing this, Amara’s lips curled into a beautiful smile while Anna looked at Max in shock.
“S-She… your woman…” she stuttered, and then said, almost shouting, “Just how many women do you want? You have Lilly, Leticia, Belen, Rima and there is Flavia too, and now you have one another.”
Cough!
Max coughed, feeling awkward, but then he stepped toward her, put his hand around her waist and pulled her against his chest and said,
“You didn’t name yourself? Don’t tell me you’ve changed your mind?”
Anna, who wanted to scold him for fooling around so much, shuddered and her face reddened at his gesture and words. She then said in a low voice, “Would you even have time for me with so many women around you?”
A brilliant smile appeared on Max’s face when he heard this and said, “Of course. I will have.”
Saying this, he gently lifted her chin up, looked into her autumn eyes and leaned down to kiss her lips, but couldn’t because she had put her hand over his mouth.
“C-Can’t you see we aren’t alone?” She angrily said, casting a glance at Amara.
ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm “This means I can kiss you when we are alone, huh?” Max grinned.
“I never said that.” Anna blushed.
After teasing her for a while, he took out an escape talisman and gave it to her and said, “Let’s go.”
Anna crushed the talisman, feeling her body being reinforced by a strange energy.
The trio then rushed in the Claymore town’s direction.
While running, Anna suddenly asked, “Max, have you told Leticia and Belen about the demons?”
The last month while he was away, both Leticia and Belen had started going out on missions to gain experience and hone their fighting skills. She had only met them two times before Flavia was taken away.
“Don’t worry. I had informed them about this. They should be heading toward their homes right now. After they convince their loved ones, they will come to us.”
When he returned from the demon continent, he had received messages from them asking if he had returned and that they weren’t in the academy, etc.
Since they were out, he had told them about the demon invasion and asked them to go get their loved ones before meeting him, to which they agreed, even though they found it hard to believe.
Suddenly, he remembered something and his expression changed, “Damn it!”
