"What is it?" Anna asked. Amara also paid attention.
"I forgot to inform a friend of mine and that… Elder who I am close with." Max said. Because of how things had turned out, he completely forgot about informing Haory and Jasmine.
Although Haory and he hadn't t after their initial outing, he still thought of her as his friend. As for Jasmine, well, she could be considered his woman, or could she?
'There's Eliana too.' He thought. 'Should I go back to tell them?'
As this thought appeared in his mind, he imdiately shook his head, 'I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be allowed into the academy. Besides, Jack's parents' should be there right now. If they see alone, they will definitely want to kill .'
Anna frowned and asked, "You can't tell them through communication crystal?"
"No. I don't have their mana signature." Max shook his head and then said, "Forget it. As long as they are in the academy, they should be safe."
"Hm." Anna nodded while letting out a sigh of relief in her heart. She was prepared to stop him if he said he wanted to go back to warn them because going there was too dangerous for him after all that happened. Fortunately, she didn't have to.
As they ran, Max shifted his attention to the system and opened his status for the first ti after he broke through to the three-star and the system changed.

A surprised expression appeared on his face when he saw his attributes.
'All of them have increased by 50. No wonder I'm feeling stronger than before even without using mana. However…'
He raised his brows and thought, '…I've never heard soone becoming physically stronger when they breakthrough.'
He didn't have to think of the reason this happened because it was clearly the system's 'gift'.
He then moved his gaze down to the Lust, Kill and Shop points.
'System, why don't I have any LPs? Didn't I do it with Amara to complete the first mission?' He asked when he saw 0 written in front of LPs.
[Host, those points were used to help the system transform.] System answered.
'Alright.' He nodded and moved his gaze lower.
'These kill points, what should I do with them? Should I add them into my mana or convert them into SPs?' He thought and then decided not to touch them for now.

With their speed, it took them only a day to reach the Claymore town.
Huff! Huff! Huff!
All three of them panting heavily. This was especially true for Anna. Even though she had used all the escaping talismans Max had and then was helped by him and Amara in turns, she was thoroughly drained.
"Ha! I want to sleep now." She said, wiping the sweat from her face and forehead.
"Sa here." Amara chid in.
Although she was a high-star three-star demon and had a lot of stamina, maybe even more than Max, she wasn't used to running. She had her wings to travel, after all. That was why she was also very exhausted and wanted to sleep badly.
Max, also drained, smiled at them. "Let's go. We can sleep at ho."
"No, we won't be able to. At least not for a few hours after reaching ho." Anna pouted her lips.
"Hm? Why?" Max asked, curious.
Anna grinned at him. "Did you forget how my mom is? She wouldn't let us rest until we tell her everything we've experienced in the academy."
"Oh? Now I rember." Max smiled wryly.
From original Max's mories, he recalled how excited Alia would get whenever Anna, Emily, or others returned from their academies. Even though she knew she should let them rest first, she wouldn't and would keep asking questions.
After they entered the town and headed toward the Garfield mansion.
A few people recognized Anna and started greeting her while casting furtive glances at Amara, who stood silently by their side, looking at everything in the town.
After a while, she muttered, "I don't know why humans and demons hate each other when they don't have much difference in their lifestyles."
Max nodded, agreeing with her.
When he had seen the market in Amara's city, he also felt the sa. Apart from a few things, such as race and culture, both races didn't have much difference. Even the Elven race was the sa.
Anna, however, froze when she heard Amara. Her eyes narrowed at Amara as she asked in a low voice so others wouldn't hear her,
"So, you are really a demon?"
Amara stiffened when she heard this and knew she had ssed up. She glanced at Max, asking for his help.
Max sighed and nodded. "Yes, she is."
Anna didn't have any violent reaction as a normal person would have if they found out her identity, which surprised both Max and Amara.
She looked at him strangely and asked, "You are really bold, aren't you?"
Max simply shrugged.
Anna then ignored him and turned to Amara and asked excitedly, "This isn't you real form, right? If it is, then it's too much coincidence that you have the sa eyes as little Max."
Amara didn't answer but asked instead, "You… aren't you afraid or feel disgust for ?"
"Why would I?" Anna asked as if in confusion and then said, "I'm not like everyone else. As long as soone isn't my enemy or has hard or my loved ones, it doesn't matter which race they belong to. They will be the sa to as a random human is."
She then added with a smile, "Furthermore, even if I felt so hatred or disgust toward the demon race, I wouldn't have treated you differently. You are little Max's woman and a family mber now, after all."
Amara's heart ward when she heard this, and a radiant smile appeared on her face. She then nodded. "Yes, it isn't my true form."
"Can you show your true form?" Anna asked, excited.
"No problem." Amara nodded.
Max smiled as he watched them converse.
In a good mood, they quickly arrived before the Garfield mansion. However, their faces fell when they saw the scene in front of them.
