"You ca?" Leticia mumbled a little dazedly when she saw Max. Now what Belen did makes sense. If she hadn't bought these few seconds until Max and these two won arrived, they might've been killed.
'But how did she know Max was nearby? Even if he ssaged her, I never saw her take out her communication crystal.'
These questions flashed in her mind, but as soon as they appeared, she pushed them to the back of her mind, not bothering to think about them. As far as she was concerned, all that mattered was that Max was here and they would be saved.
'Wait? Why are there only three of them?' She frowned when she noticed Max had only brought these two won. Didn't they tell him that there were five three-star demons? Could the three of them handle these five?
'Perhaps one of them is that king mage he told us about.'
'Wait!'
Suddenly, the scene of Max suddenly appearing behind the scarred demoness and sending her flying in a punch appeared in her mind and her eyes widened shock.
"H-He has already broken through to the three-star realm?"
Although they had communicated via communication crystals, he had never told them about it, hence the surprise.
Amara, who was standing in front of her, heard her mutterings and let out a small chuckle.
Although she wasn't chosen to join the leading demon army, as the daughter of one of the branch leaders of the BloodWing tribe, she had the basic knowledge of other languages too. So, she understood what Leticia was mumbling about.
"Yes, he has. But is that really surprising?" She asked.
She was really surprised to see the people here be surprised by the fact that he broke through to the three-star realm. Wasn't it just natural, given how outstanding her master was and he even had that mysterious emperor or perhaps monarch ranked senior to guide him?
"Of course. It is. You might not know, but just a few months ago, he was just an early-stage two-star mage, but now he has already broken through to the three-star." Leticia said and then added, "By the way, are you not human?"
"Huh?"
Amara was caught off guard by her question, and an expression of shock appeared on her face.
"You… how did you know?"
"Eh, so you are not." Leticia nodded upon seeing her reaction and wasn't surprised too much. The only bit of surprise she had was because she, a demon, was with Max and helping him.
She then grinned at her and answered her question, "First and the main reason, I get the sa feeling from you which I had from those five. Second, you clearly are a novice at speaking our language, just like them."
Amara beca worried when she heard this. Not because of her lack of the language mastery since she could just avoid speaking but because Leticia could tell she was the sa as other demons.
'But how can she tell when even those king and emperor mages couldn't tell? Even my father had told he couldn't tell apart from a human if I didn't have the sa appearance. Perhaps she has so special ability?'
She thought.
Seeing her frown, Leticia smiled. "Don't worry. You are safe unless you encounter soone special like ."
When Amara heard this, she knew Leticia had so special ability, which helped her see the true nature of the people.
Leticia then suddenly narrowed her eyes and asked, "Are you perhaps his woman?"
"Eh?" her question again surprised Amara. She thought for a mont and then sighed. "I don't know if he thinks of like that."
"Mm?" Leticia wasn't satisfied by her answer and wanted to ask more question when she noticed her mother trembling as she looked at Amara.
Previously, when Amara appeared and repelled the demoness who was lunging at them, she was relieved, but when she heard she was also a demon; she tensed up, even though she knew Amara was on their side.
Amara glanced at her and then turned around and looked at Max, facing the four demons.
Leticia grabbed her mother's hand and assured her. "It's alright, mother. As long as we have that handso guy, no one can harm us."
Leticia's mother looked at her and then at Max, and her eyes glinted strangely. She could feel that her daughter's relationship with that man wasn't ordinary. If it was ordinary, he wouldn't have co to save them.
A few ters away from them, Emily looked at Belen, who had a savage expression as she controlled her vines to torture the scarred demoness.
Every ti the demoness was about to die, she would loosen her vines, let her regain her senses and then strangle her again.
Seeing this, Emily raised her brows but couldn't care less about it because the fight between Max and the demons was about to begin.

hak and others looked at Max warily. hak then glanced around to see if there were more people and let out a breath of relief when he didn't see anyone apart from Max and the other two.
He then took a step toward him while releasing his demon energy and aura simultaneously.
Boom!
"You said you are going to kill us?" He asked.
Max's brows shot up when he noticed that this man in front of him was a peak three-star demon.
But… so what if he was? He was going to kill him, regardless. But first…
He ignored the four in front of him and walked toward the demoness who was being tortured by Belen.
"You bastard!" hak grew furious when he saw Max ignore him so blatantly and he rushed toward him.
Whoosh!
"Mm?" Max stopped in his tracks, frowning and then slowly said, "I wanted to kill that bitch who dared to hit my woman first, but it seed you are in a hurry to die."
When hak heard this, he grew even more furious, but suddenly, he stopped in his tracks and jumped back.
"Oh? You can sense danger beforehand. Not bad." Max said, unclenching his right fist.
