Combat Maid Harem

635 The Holy Sun Church



Time passed very quickly without Lawrend and Humility realizing it.

By the time Lawrend stopped, it was already the next day.

“It’s taking too long nowadays,” Lawrend muttered to himself.

Humility was sleeping with her arms on the desk. Lawrend took out a towel from his Storage Ring and wrapped it around her shoulders. He took one last look before leaving the room with a fresh set of clothing.

Lawrend started to realize that time felt shorter for him. If before he only needed a couple of hours, he now needed a full day to satisfy his maids. He couldn’t help but imagine how long it would take in the future.

Lawrend looked around the hallway and decided to find Elena’s room. He wanted to check on his sons and daughters.

*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*

“Who is it?” Elena asked from inside the room.

“It’s me.”

Silence immediately followed, and then a sudden sound of heavy footsteps.

“Master!”

The door opened and Elena came bursting out. She spread her arms apart and took him in an embrace.

“How are you?” Lawrend asked.

“I was waiting for your visit, Master! Can I get more of your ‘essence’?” Elena asked with a face full of excitement.

“I came here to check on my kids,” Lawrend replied.

“Hmmm… Fine. You look tired too,” Elena said and pulled him inside.

Lawrend looked around and saw his kids. Some of them were fumblingly walking about and others were on the floor picking up toys. They turned their heads when they heard his footsteps and looked at him.

“Hello.” Lawrend waved at them.

“Hm?”

A black-haired little boy stared at him with his head tilted. His eyes were filled with curiosity at Lawrend. He was Aleshia’s son, Zio.

“This is Papa,” Elena said to the infants.

“Pa…”

One of them tried to open her mouth. It was the red-haired little girl, Veronica.

One of them crawled to him. He tried to stand up, but he wobbled back down to the floor. He had blonde hair and a solemn face.

“Courage?”

Lawrend grabbed the baby’s hand and helped him stand up.

“Yes, Master. You are correct.”

“Call me Papa.”

Lawrend kneeled in front of him.

“Mapalala…” Courage spoke gibberish.

“When they turn 3 years old, I will start my magic lesson. I expect them to be able to speak somewhat fluently at that time,” Lawrend said and stood up.

“Yes, Master. Consider it done. I have started gaining momentum at teaching them,” Elena replied with a confident smile on her face.

“Good. Goodbye, my little guys and girls,” Lawrend said and waved at them.

He nodded his head at Elena and left the room. Some of his kids waved back at him while staring at his back in a daze. They were curious about him, but their immature minds didn’t even think of stopping him.

Lawrend wasn’t worried about his children not knowing he was their father. He would have a lot of time teaching them about magic soon. At that time, it won’t be too late to cultivate his relationships with them.

Since he had nothing else to do, Lawrend flew out of the Imperial Castle. He looked down at the Imperial City. There were still signs of damage everywhere. A large part was oddly empty with buildings around it.

As Lawrend flew he looked for a church-like building.

Indeed. Just like what Humility told him. There was a huge church erected near the Imperial Castle. He couldn’t help but be impressed by the speed. It was the result of religious fanatics working hard.

Lawrend flew down to the entrance. He was immediately noticed. And as soon as they processed his face, their eyes went round. A man realized who he was and kneeled on the spot.

“O’ Sun God! We welcome you to your Holy Sun Church!” he shouted.

The others who were stunned immediately followed suit. Many of them hadn’t seen him in person, but only saw his statue. They were reminded of his ability to create a sun, and it filled their eyes with awe, respect, and fear.

“Who is the Pope?” Lawrend calmly asked.

It felt weird for a lot of people to kneel to him with both of their knees. He calmly took it all. With his improved soul magic, he could control his emotions more.

“The Pope… Y-Your Divinity, a Sun Pope hadn’t been assigned to anyone yet. We consider H-Her Holiness Humility to be one, but it isn’t official,” he replied while shaking in nervousness.

“I see. Let her do as she wishes. Lead me inside. I want to explore this church you made,” Lawrend said.

“Y-Yes! I will go inform Cardinal Otor.”

A way was parted in the sea of people, and the man rushed into the church’s door. By this time, more people arrived to witness the commotion.

As soon as they realized who Lawrend was, they kneeled together with the others. It led to the creation of a spectacular scene with thousands of people kneeling to a single man.

“Otor?”

Lawrend stopped caring about the people kneeling for him. He was surprised to hear Otor’s name. If he wasn’t wrong, he was Julianne’s subordinate. The Earth-Earth Mage.

Soon, a series of rushed footsteps sounded from within the church. Lawrend squinted his eyes and eagerly waited for the person. He wanted to know if it was the same person.

“Emperor, the Sun God!” Otor shouted as soon as he saw Lawrend.

He dropped to the ground and kneeled right in front of him. He grabbed Lawrend’s foot and lifted them up slightly before kissing the front.

“Wait.”

Lawrend pulled his foot away and stared at Otor with confusion.

“D-Do you not like this gesture?!?” Otor asked in a panic.

“Who told you to do this?” Lawrend asked.

He never thought that Otor could do something like kiss his shoes.

“Her Holiness Humility taught us how to please you,” Otor replied with a serious face.

Lawrend stared at him for a while and realized he wasn’t lying. Considering it came from Humility, it wasn’t a surprise.

“*Sigh* Stand up and lead me inside. Tell me beforehand before you do stuff like that. I’m not used to it,” Lawrend said as he gave up.
