Max stared at the white-haired girl curiously.

"Confirm rejection." Max said to M.

He looked at the girl and said, "I am Max."

Snow's face brightened up. "You are not affected by my spell. How wonderful!"

Max was confused for a moment. He was ready to fight someone who used a spell on him. He is planning to fake being affected by it but her reaction caught him off guard.

The white-haired girl started hovering over him in fascination.

"M, show me her stats."

"Affirmative.

Name: Snow

Strength: 1.5

Agility: 1.7

Vitality: 1.2

Mana: 3

Status: Healthy"

At this moment, Max noticed a long trail of men following the girl. They have a severe case of infatuation in their eyes.

"M, what's happening to them?" Max asked M to perform an analysis.

"Analysis complete. The subjects are showing symptoms of high levels of dopamine and norepinephrine hormone. In simple terms, they are 'in love'."

Max began to understand what's happening. These people are charmed by this woman. He asked the girl confusedly, "Why did you attack me with a charm spell?"

"I apologize for not properly introducing myself. I am from the Huldra clan."

Max started to search his memories for any mention of the Huldra clan. He remembered Old Bear mentioning the clan when he asked for the most powerful clans in the Halsberg Kingdom. The old man said,"The Huldra clan is one of the most ancient branch clans of the Halsberg Kingdom. They are very unique because they only have female members within the clan. It is said that they use male slaves to reproduce. Although I haven't encountered any of them, they say that they are really powerful because of their natural inclination to magical energy. It is a legend that they are born with an innate magical spell."

"Is that your innate spell?" Max asked the white-haired girl.

Snow answered shyly, "Yes. I'm sorry. I have a charm spell that makes people submit to me. I still cannot control it. I feel helpless with it."

She continued on the verge of tears, "You are the first one to not be affected by it." Then, she started crying leaning on Max.

The eyes of the men behind her started to turn red from jealousy.

"He's making our lady cry."

"Let's kill him!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Max started to get irritated. There are 20 armored men chanting about killing him while he's holding a crying girl to his chest.

"Is there a way to stop this?" Max asked Snow.

"The only way to stop the spell is if I get out of their sight. The only problem is we are on the deck of an airship. I've been trying to escape their sight for days but they keep increasing in number." Snow said, beginning to tear up again.

Max sighed. He suddenly had an idea. He pulled the girl by her arms and started moving towards the attendants standing guard on the entryway to the bottom part of the airship.

The two attendants are wearing a full-white garb with a cone-shaped hat. They were peacefully standing in their posts when they saw two figures running towards them with a huge number of people in tow.
