Chapter 494 Fled?

He immediately turned around and slash at her incoming hand. Rue knew how sharp his sword was even though he wasn\'t infusing his mana into it, so she immediately retracted her hand and jumped back.

Max ignored her, turned around and rushed at the demon, but Rue appeared behind him once again, clawing at his back.

Max\'s eyes narrowed in displeasure as he turned around attacked her, but she had already retreated.

"You don\'t want to live, is that right?" He said, slowly walking toward her.

"Heh! You think you can kill me?" Rue mocked. but there was deep fear in the depths of her eyes. The only reason she was being this daring was because she knew his weakness: His speed.

However, as soon as she finished speaking, her eyes widened because Max was already in front of her, slashing his sword at her.

"Ahhh! You bastard! I\'m not easy to kill," Rue shrieked with a painful expression on her face. Max\'s brows shot up when he saw this and felt a premonition.

Immediately, he stopped his attack and dodged to the side.

He had barely moved from his spot when a green blob of liquid shot out of her mouth and flew by his side, lightly touching the back of his robes before colliding against a thick tree fifty meters away.

Sizzle!

The tree trunk where the liquid splashed sizzled and, within a moment, it withered and crumbled into dust. The same happened to his robe. It also disintegrating rapidly.

"Fuck!"

Max cursed and hurriedly ripped the robes off of his upper body and threw it away. By the time it touched the ground, there was nothing but ashes left of it.

\'Such toxic poison!\' He thought, appalled. If he hadn\'t reacted quickly enough, it might have touched his skin. Just the thought of it gave him goosebumps.

\'I need to increase my intelligence stat even more.\' He thought. Thanks to his enhanced senses, which were the side effects of his [Intelligence] stat, he had evaded danger many times today.

He then glared at the demoness, whose face had turned deathly pale once again and her body swayed before she fell to the ground, her eyes becoming blurry.

Thud!

"You really want to kill me, huh?" He sneered while walking over to her.

"…I-I… will kill…you." Rue mumbled, struggling to keep her eyes open.

"No. You won\'t." Max said and swung his sword at her neck.

"STOP RIGHT THERE! YOU BASTARD!"

Just before his sword met her neck, the demon team leader\'s shout resounded. Max just scoffed at it and slashed through her neck, severing it from the rest of her body.

Then he turned to look at the demon team leader who was still fighting the Elf while glaring at him and chuckled,

"I \'might\' have spared her life and taken her as my slave if she hadn\'t almost killed me two times. Besides, don\'t glare at me. If you really wanted to save her, you would be here, trying to stop me. So, drop the act."

As soon as he said this, the demon team leader\'s expression returned to normal. When the other demons saw this, they felt chills run down their spines.

\'He wanted him to kill her? Why? They never had any disagreements. Wait! She had raised her voice at him a while ago.\'

As they thought of this, their fear toward him increased several folds and they became wary of him. The efforts they were putting in the fight decreased by a level as the thoughts of retreat once more sprang up in their hearts.

If he could let Max \'kill\' her, his woman, so what about them? They also had minor disagreements with him on many occasions after and before coming to the human continent. Wouldn\'t he \'let\' Max kill them, too?

As this kind of thoughts emerged in their heart, they completely lost motivation to fight.

When the demon leader noticed this, he gave Max a death glare before shouting at the demons, "You bastards! If you don\'t fight, you\'ll die sooner."

"S-So, you really planned to \'let\' us die on this mission." One of the four remaining demons asked while parrying his opponent\'s spear attack.

The demon team leader looked at him indifferently before glancing at Max. "We\'ll meet again and when we do, you\'ll die for sure."

Saying this, he took a deep breath and spat out a mouthful of reddish green liquid at the Elvin team leader, who instinctively dodged, and fled the scene.

"Eh?" Not only the demons, and elves even Max was dumbfounded by this. Didn\'t he say he will kill me?

For a moment, he had a thought of chasing him down because a peak three-star demon with strength equivalent to an early-stage four-star demon would give him at least 30,000 Kill points if not more.

However, he knew he wouldn\'t be able to kill him and might get killed in return, since the demon was a lot faster than him.

As they say, nothing beats the absolute speed. Although it isn\'t absolutely true and sometimes depends on the situation, the one who was faster would indeed have an enormous advantage over his enemy.

He then turned to look at the Elvin team leader, "Can you chase him down?"

"No." The elf shook his head and Max could only sigh in regret. It wasn\'t a good feeling to let your enemies escape.

\'Well, nothing I can do about it.\' He shrugged inwardly and then turned to the four demons and grinned. "It seems your leader has abandoned you."

"We can see that, you bastard." One of the demons shouted at him, not being able to hold his anger back.

Max instantly appeared in front of him and slashed at his neck. The demon tried to defend by raising his hands, but it was useless as the sword easily cleaved through his hands and then neck, killing him.

"If you hadn\'t opened you mouth, maybe you would still be alive." Max clicked his tongue and then turned to look at the remaining three demons. They wanted to escape, but the elves had surrounded them.

"So, what was I saying?" He pretended to think and then said, "Right. It seems your leader has abandoned you guys. But… you still have a chance to survive. Want to know how?"
