Strongest Mage with the Lust system

​ After a moment of shock, Leticia excitedly said, "With this many Mana stones, we can easily buy all three spirit fruits."

"You..." Belen and Rima looked at her, speechless. Didn't she hear how valuable and rare a beast essence was, and it would be beneficial to them if they kept it instead of selling it?

When she saw Belen and Rima's expressions, she felt embarrassed and hurriedly said, "Of course, we don't need to sell it since it is better if we keep it. I was only calculating whether we can buy all three fruits if we were to sell the essence."

After saying this, she turned to look at Max to see if he was angry because of her naivety and only when she noticed that he seemed deep in his thoughts without any signs of anger did she sigh in relief.

Although she wanted the spirit fruits since they could increase her strength quite a bit, she didn't want to seem selfish and make Max dislike her.

Rima and Belen obviously knew of her thoughts, and they also sighed in relief, seeing that Max didn't seem to hear her words. Over time, they became close and were like best friends, if not sisters. So, they naturally didn't want Max to be angry with her.

Hearing Leticia's words, the middle-aged lady chuckled and shook her head, "Dear guests, it isn't guaranteed that you will be able to successfully buy all three spirit fruits with only a million Mana stones."

"Why? she told us that we should be able to buy them with 250,000 Mana stones per fruit," Leticia asked in confusion as she pointed at the servant girl who told them about the price.

The middle-aged lady glanced at the servant girl before she nodded, "What she said should have been correct if it was some other time."

"Some other time?" Max frowned.

"Oh? You don't know?" The middle-aged lady raised her brows when she saw the confused expression on Max's and others' faces.

"Are we supposed to know this?" Leticia asked when she the middle-aged lady's expression.

After a moment's pause, the middle-aged lady shook her head, "No, I didn't mean that."

She then changed the topic and said, "The reason I said that it should have been correct if it was some other time is that many wealthy guests from our Elvin race and your human are here for the spirit fruits. So the chances are high that their prices might double or even triple than usual."

"Oh? That's the case." Leticia nodded in understanding while Max, Belen and Rima looked at the middle-aged lady skeptically. They could see that she was trying to avoid telling them why there were more customers than usual.

Seeing their expressions, the middle-aged lady flashed an apologetic smile and asked, "So, dear guest, are you going to put the essence on auction?"

Max didn't dwell on it since she wasn't willing to speak about it and shook his head, "No."

"Oh, okay." The middle-aged lady was disappointed to hear this. However, it was normal for her to feel this way after all; if they had the rare beast blood essence, their auction's reputation would increase.

Max ignored her expression, pointed at the talismans on the table, and asked, "How about these?"

The middle-aged lady nodded and took a look at the talismans before she shook her head, "Although they are quite good, they aren't worth putting on auction."

Max nodded and put away the talismans and jars of the beast's blood essence in his inventory. Even though Leticia, Belen and Rima didn't show any emotion, they were also a bit disappointed.

"Dear guest, I shall take my leave if there isn't anything." After seeing that Max wasn't going to put anything on the auction, the middle-aged lady bade farewell and turned to leave. However, before she could even take a step, Max stopped her.

"Wait."

"Huh?" She stopped in her tracks and asked, "Is there anything you need my assistance with?"

"Yes, please wait for a while." Max nodded and took out a pen and paper, and started writing something without waiting.

The middle-aged lady frowned upon seeing his action and her gaze turned slightly cold as she thought, 'What does he want to do?' She felt he was wasting her time, but since he was their honoured guest, she couldn't ignore him.

While Belen and Leticia were confused, Rima's eyes flashed in realisation, and she exclaimed in a low voice, "I understand."

"What is it?" Leticia asked curiously.

"I think... he intends to auction one of his spells to procure enough Mana stones to buy the spirit fruits," Rima replied emotionally.

"What?" Belen and Leticia almost shouted in shock. In the next instant, their expression melted as they looked at him. Belen and Leticia tried to dissuade him, but he ignored them and continued writing.

Although Rima and others spoke in a low voice, as a mid-stage three-star mage, the middle-aged lady clearly heard them, which caused her to be stunned.

'Is he crazy or something?' She felt like laughing. If he had taken a pre-written scroll, she might have believed that it was thinking that he obtained it from somewhere, but no, he was writing it himself.

A mage who hadn't even reached the three-star realm was writing a spell, thinking it would sell for more than a million Mana stones.

It should be known that only those who have mastered a spell completely can write it and pass it on to others, and since the mages couldn't comprehend any spell that was a tier higher than respective realms, usually only three-star or higher mages' spells were worth auctioning. As for spells suitable for two-star and lower-level mages, they were very cheap.

'He clearly isn't a three-star mage. So, why are his companions so sure that his spell would be worth more than a million Mana stones? Could it be that he is one of those rare geniuses who can comprehend and use higher-tier spells?'

Upon seeing Belen's reaction, the middle-aged lady was puzzled. From their interaction until now, she knew that Belen was the most knowledgeable person in the group and should know the values of different tiers of spells. So, when she saw her confident expression, she started to have second thoughts.

After a while, Max was done writing and handed it over to the lady, "Here, Please check this spell and tell me if it is valuable enough to put on auction."
