"That's right." Amara nodded before adding, "Although he is only an early-stage three-star mage, I feel he can match most of the high-stage three-star de… mages."
"This… is this true?" Anna asked with shock in her voice.
ραndαsnοvεl.cοm If it was true, wasn't her little brother's rate of progress was too horrifying? It had been just a few months when he was able to use mana and now he was almost as strong as their father?
"Of course. That's true." Amara nodded. "However, he needs to hone his battle skills and magic spells. He is too immature in that area."
After Anna's shock faded, she glanced at the beautiful girl in front of her and asked, "Who are you and why did you call him master?"
"My name is Amara Bloodwing and I call him master because I'm his… subordinate." Amara introduced herself and then asked, "May I ask what's your relationship with my master? Are you one of his women?"
"N-No, no. I'm not his woman." Anna blushed and hurriedly shook her head while adding in her mind, 'yet'.
"Then?"
"I'm his half-sister." Anna replied while unconsciously stressing on the 'half' part.
"I understand. But as far as I know, my master, you'll soon be his woman." Amara chuckled.
"W-What do you mean?"
"Nothing." Amara shrugged and then said, "You should pack your stuff and get ready to leave."
Hearing this, Anna frowned and asked, "Is he really leaving the academy?" She couldn't understand why he wanted to leave.
As far as she was concerned, the academy was a perfect place to get stronger. Not only could they acquire resources to become stronger here and receive guidance from the elders, they had many opponents to fight against to hone their skills.
"You must not know this, but the demons from the demon continent will be here in a few days. When that happens, this region will become the battlefield because it's near the place from which they would enter."
"Because the demons are coming sooner than the people here expected, the reinforcements from the central region will be late. In that duration, almost all people here would be massacred because, from what I can see, no one here has any inkling of the imminent demon invasion." Amara said, her voice filled with pity and mockery.
She then added, "That's why the master wants to leave and find some safe place to stay before that happens."
Anna's eyes widened in shock. She was having a hard time believing it.

Whoosh!
Max arrived before the disciplinary hall's building.
Just as he was about to enter and find the man who bullied Anna, he saw him walking out with two other people in the disciplinary hall disciple's uniform, talking and laughing.
Just as Max noticed him, the man also noticed him, and his laughter abruptly stopped. A trace of fear, anger, and viciousness flashed in his eyes.
The two disciples by his side, a man and a woman in their mid-twenties, were confused when he abruptly stopped. As they followed his gaze, they noticed Max standing right outside the building.
"Brother Luo, who is he?" The man asked.
"He is the guy who Elder Raina asked us to take care of." The man named Luo answered.
"Oh? He is that one." This time the woman spoke, her eyes flashing.
"How nice of him! He came to us as soon as he returned." The man laughed. He was eager to put some crime on Max's head and then arrest him so they could 'take care' of him.
Max ignored their chatter and eyed the man named Luo before saying in a calm voice, "I'll ask this one time. Did you target my sister because of the enmity between us, or did someone ask you to?"
Luo's expression turned dark when he heard Max's condescending tone, but he didn't answer.
The man by his side, however, couldn't help but mock, "What? You want to take revenge? You bastard kid, let alone revenge, you won't be—"
BANG!
His mocking voice abruptly stopped because a fist had landed in his gut and sent him flying back into the hall.
Thud!
He crashed onto the stone paved ground heavily and coughed out a mouthful of blood. An expression of horror appearing on his face.
This attracted the attention of the people in the hall and outside the building.
"Wow! That guy is strong. He sent that foul-mouthed brat flying before he could even react."
"Strong indeed, but he is also a reckless fool. Doesn't he know he can't offend disciplinary hall's disciples?"
"This bastard! He dared to attack one of our people? He is really tired of living."
…
Many people started commenting, but Max disregarded all of them. He glanced at the man coughing out blood on the ground and nodded.
"Yes, I want revenge and I'll get it today no matter what. Since you admitted you were also the one who participated in bullying my sister, I'll start with you."
Whoosh!
As soon as finished speaking, he moved and within a split second; he was standing before the man.
"You bastard! How dare—"
The man cursed, but once again, his voice was cut short as Max's kick landed on his chest.
Bang!
Crack!
A crisp sound of bone breaking followed the sound of impact as the man flew toward one of the walls of the building and crashed into it.
Thud!
He slid down and blood flowed out from his mouth, nose and ears non-stop. Much of his chest was caved in and blood was flowing out from it, too. After struggling for a few moments, the man fainted.
Gasp!
Gasps of terror rang out in the hall and everyone felt chills run down their spine when they saw the bloodied man and their gazes now held a hint of fear besides pity and derision.
They still believed his ending would not be good now that he had severely injured someone from the disciplinary hall.
Max glanced at the man who had lost his consciousness before turning his gaze toward Luo, who was looking at him with terror in his eyes.
When he noticed Max looking at him, he involuntarily retreated.
Just then, an enraged voice boomed throughout the hall.
"Who dared to be so presumptuous in my disciplinary hall?!"
