[Stop playing the master-slave game with my daughter. Accept her as your woman.] Orlan's voice, which had a warning undertone, sounded in his head.

Max broke out in a cold sweat. He could imagine what his ending would have been if he wasn't of Orlan's use.

After calming down, he felt even more fear towards him because while Orlan was talking to him, he never let on the fact he knew about the slave seal placed in his daughter.

'Did he find about it today or did he know from the day one? If it's the latter, he sure is a very ruthless man.'

"What happened, master?" Amara asked when he saw his intense reaction.

Max looked at Amara with some pity in his eyes. She didn't have a mother and had a ruthless father while her only support, her big brother, was imprisoned. He couldn't even imagine what kind of life she must have lived until she met him.

"Come here." He grabbed her hand and pulled her into his chest, embracing her tightly.

"Ahh~! Master." Amara could feel this hug was different. It didn't have any lustful intentions. There was only empathy, care, and love.

Without her even realizing, tears started falling down her eyes and her hands wrapped around his back.

After a while, they broke the hug. Max looked at her and fell into deep thought. He was considering whether he should remove the slave seal or not.

However, there was a problem if he wanted to remove it—He needed to be a five-star mage at the very least.

'Let's wait then.' He shrugged and glanced at the spatial ring in his hand. 'Let's see what my father-in-law gave me?'

As his senses delved inside the ring and he saw the things stored in there, his lips twitched. He then flicked the ring over to Amara. "Here! It's for you."

"For me? Didn't the father say it's for both of—"

Amara raised her brows in confusion. She wanted to share whatever her father gave them with him, but when she scanned the items inside; she stopped speaking and an apologetic expression appeared on her face. 

Why? Because apart from blood gems, there were only big containers of blood and none of these two were useful to Max.

"Master…"

"It's alright." Max stopped before she could apologize. 

"Now let's go." He said and crushed his teleportation crystal.

Whoosh!

A wave of invisible energy surrounded him and it felt as if he was being torn apart for a moment. He then vanished from the room.

Seeing him teleport away, Amara also crushed her crystal and disappeared in the next second.

After a few moments later, Orlan appeared in the room and glanced around before muttering, "There isn't even a trace of any leftover energy that teleportation formations usually leave behind. Have the humans advanced so much?"

Human continent, the cloud mountain…

At the base of the cloud mountain, the situation was as lively as ever, with the cloud academy's disciples and merchants going up and down the mountain.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

A few kilometers away from the base, suddenly two figures appeared out of nowhere.

"Ahhh!"

The sudden appearance startled a middle-aged man, who was resting under a tree not far from them. There was a wagon filled with goods a few meters away from him.

His surprised shouted attracted the duo's, who were Max and Amara, of course, attention.

Max smiled at the man apologetically before grabbing Amara's hand and walking in the mountain's direction.

The man gawked at their figures and muttered, "What a beautiful pair!"

"Wait! How did they appear here out of nowhere?' He thought but couldn't figure it out, so he could only guess that they were very powerful mages and could travel at speeds inconceivable to normal people like him.

As they walked toward the base of the cloud mountain, Amara couldn't help but take deep breaths and exclaim, 

"How refreshing! No wonder my demon race wants to come back here. It's basically heaven here compared to the demon continent."

"Hey, keep it down. Don't let anyone hear the word demon here." Max cautioned her, to which she obediently nodded.

  They quickly arrived before a transport eagle that had around ten people already.

Their arrival immediately attracted everyone's attention. 

The eagle's owner, the people on the eagle's back and others in the vicinity, stared at the duo as if hypnotized. Of course, the males looked at Amara, while females gawked at Max.

"Eh?" 

Max felt a little uncomfortable when they became the center of attention. Although he could understand why every man here was attracted to Amara. She was, after all, a top beauty and also had her demonic and seductive charm, making her irresistible to men. 

However… he felt surprised when he noticed the hungry looks girls directed at him. 

Feeling a little confused, he turned to Amara and asked, "Compared to the first time you met me, have I become more handsome?"

Although it sounded a little narcistic, he was truly bewildered because, although he used to attract girls' attention before too, their reaction had never been so intense.

Currently, Amara's beautiful brows were knitted in displeasure. 

As someone from the demon race, she always treated human beings as ants and no human, except Max, dared to be so blatant with their gazes in her presence. 

That's why she was incensed when she felt these lowly humans' gazes roaming over her body without restraint.

If it wasn't because she couldn't do as she pleased here, she would've gouged their eyes out by now.

Just as her blood was starting to boil in anger, she heard Max's voice, which helped her calm down. 

She then giggled lightly, making men staring at her swoon, "Hehe, master. Did you just realize it? After you broke through to the three-star realm, you have grown many times more charming than before."

"Is that so?" Max frowned when he heard this.

Even though he knew when people broke through to higher realms, their appearance would go through some changes and they would become younger and more beautiful/handsome than before.

However, he could feel his change wasn't entirely because of the breakthrough.

Thinking this, he asked the system, 'System, are you responsible for this?'
