Chapter 484  Emily\'s advice

When Amara heard this and saw that he didn\'t seem angry, she sighed in relief.

Max then headed to the scarred demoness who was trying her best to break open Belen\'s vines.

When she saw Max approach, her face turned pale, and she stopped struggling more intensely, snapping a few of the vines, but Belen conjured up new ones and bind her again.

Since she couldn\'t break free, she stopped all together and shouted at Max, her voice breaking in fear.

"Y-You monster! D-Don\'t come closer."

Leticia, who had returned beside Belen, scoffed, "Is that how you beg for your life?"

Hearing this, the scarred demoness quickly realised her mistake and hurried to say. "P-Please don\'t kill me. I can be your s-servant and help you with whatever you need. Y-You can even plant a slave seal

—"

Slash!

Max didn\'t let her finished and slash at her neck, separating it from her body.

Thud!

As the demoness\' head rolled off the ground, he could see a horrified expression on her face.

"Be grateful that I didn\'t torture you after how you attacked my woman," he coldly said.

Belen\'s eyes flashed with a gentle glimmer when she heard this.

Finished killing everyone, he crouched in front of Belen and looked at her severely injured hand.

Noticing his gaze, Belen smiled, "It\'ll heal in a few days."

"Have you taken healing pills?" He asked.

Belen hesitated a little before nodding. "Yes."

"Then why isn\'t it healing?" He asked, frowning.

"There are demon energy\'s remnants in it which are slowing down the healing process, but as I said, it\'ll only take just a few days for it to heal completely. So, don\'t worry about it. You should check Leticia\'s injury."

Hearing this, he glanced at Leticia and noticed a gruesome wound on her abdomen.

Seeing this, he sighed and spoke in his mind, \'System, have you recovered some energy?\'

[Yes, host.] System answered.

\'Good. Can you extract the demon energy from their wounds?\' He asked. Although he had extracted it from Aria\'s wound in the Elvin city previously, it was the old man who did it, not the system. So, he wasn\'t sure if the system could do it too.

[Yes, host, but host will need to provide the required energy.]

\'Hm. Let\'s first check how many Kill points I received.\' He thought and opened the notification panel.

[Ding! You\'ve killed a three-star demon. +10,000 Kill points.]

[Ding! You\'ve killed a three-star demon. +2000 Kill points.]

[Ding!... +2000 Kill points.]

[Ding!... +2000 Kill points.]

\'System, why do these points vary? When I killed that pot-bellied Elder who was also a mid-stage three-star mage, I only got 1000 Kill points, but now I got 2000 from all three mid-stage demons.\' He asked after seeing the notifications.

[Host will get more Kill points the stronger the being killed is. The last three demons, although in the same realm as that \'pot-bellied\' person, were twice as strong as him. Hence the double amount.] The system answered.

\'Understood. Now, tell me how much energy you need to extract the demon energy from their wounds.\' He asked.

[5000 Kill points, host. However, the system suggests that the host tries to expel the demon energy\'s remnants himself. That way the host can save these points.] The system suggested.

\'Hm? But I\'m only an early-stage three-star mage while the energy belongs to at least mid-stage—\'

Max frowned and said, but suddenly, he paused because he realised his mana wasn\'t much weaker than a high-stage three-star being\'s energy.

\'You sure I can do it? And how should I do it?\' He asked.

[System believes the host can do it. As for how, the host only needs to envelop the energy remnants within his mana and pull out.]

\'Alright. Let me try.\'

After that, he did as the system said. Although it was a little difficult because it was his first time and he didn\'t want to aggravate their wounds by recklessly using his mana, he managed to expel all the demon energy out.

Leticia and Belen were surprised because just containing the demon energy remnants was more than hard for them, but after recalling how strong he was, their surprised subsided.

Phew!

He exhaled a deep breath after he was done and then wiped the sweat off his forehead.

Seeing this, Emily, who was watching him, said, "Your mana control is too... subpar."

The corner of Max\'s lips twitched at her words. He could somehow feel she wanted to use the word \'trash\'.

"Is that so?" Although he knew it wasn\'t outstanding, he felt it was average at least and not subpar. He could manipulate it quite easily, after all.

Emily could see he didn\'t believe her. So, she raised her hand and a blob of mana appeared above her palm.

Then she started changing its shapes at very fast speeds. One time it was a round ball, then a sharp sword, arrow, thin wire. She even wrote his name with it in the air.

Max, Amara, Leticia and Belen, everyone watched her in awe.

Leticia turned to Belen and asked, "Belen, can you do that?"

"Although I can do it, but I won\'t be nearly as fast as her. She is a lot superior to me in this aspect." Belen said while staring at Emily masterfully handling her mana.

After a while, Emily stopped and said, "Try doing what I just did."

"Ah, alright." Max nodded, despite knowing he wouldn\'t be able to do the same as her.

Swoosh!

He released some mana and condensed it above his palm, and started changing its shapes.

Just after a few seconds, his brows were knitted tightly in concentration and droplets of sweat had appeared on his forehead.

Then, after a short while later, he lost control, and his mana disappeared.

Max had a frown on his face. He remembered having a better control when he was in the two-star realm. Besides, he could also hold his mana around his fist without casting [Calidus Brachium] for a long while.

Seeing his expression, Emily said, "You must be thinking that your control has gotten worse after breaking through to the three-star realm, right?"

Max nodded and Emily continued, "You are right. Because our mana undergoes a qualitative transformation when we break through, controlling it becomes hard. That\'s why we have to work continuously on our mana control."

After a pause, she added, "If your mana control was slightly better, your first attack wouldn\'t have just severely injured that demon, it would\'ve taken his life instead and he wouldn\'t have the chance to use his recovery ability."

Max was surprised when he heard this and then sighed. "Sure enough. Just increasing the cultivation wouldn\'t be enough."

Emily nodded, "That\'s why you should start putting more time in training — which unfortunately I didn\'t see you do even for a second in the past three days — and waste less time in other useless things."

When she said the last part, Max noticed her gaze briefly move toward Amara, which made her frown.

"I understand. I will start focusing on training more from now on." Max nodded.

Just then, Leticia\'s mother spoke up, her expression grave.

"I-I have something important to say."
