After checking everything in the Tower of Knowledge, Maximus and his family came out.
"They're here!"
"Lord Maximus is out!"
"Finally! We can enter!"
"Hah~ I never thought time could feel this slow."
Seeing Maximus' appearance, the powerhouses outside felt euphoria rushing through their bodies.
It was like having a bountiful feast before them, yet they could only look.
Like the most beautiful woman standing naked before them, yet they were told to wait.
Experiencing such torture, their excitement couldn't help but burst out upon seeing Maximus.
"I hope I didn't make you wait too long," Maximus teased, noticing their state.
"N-no, not at all! Lord Maximus could take all the time he needs!"
"That's right! What's a few years?!"
"We'll wait patiently."
"Is that so? Just right, then wait a few more months," Maximus smiled.
"This—"
Hearing his response, they felt dead inside.
Another few months? Did Lord Maximus want to kill them?
