Combat Maid Harem

667 Saving Veronica



“Nothing. We argued for a bit before she gave it to me,” Lawrend replied.

He didn’t want to worry them, especially Aezel. He didn’t want to burden her with the fact that he became a servant of the Goddess because of Veronica.

“That’s weird. Would she really do something like that?” Ramiela asked out loud as she thought hard about it.

“Fufufu. It’s Master, after all,” Aezel replied.

Hearing that there was a solution to Veronica’s problem relaxed her a lot. She was able to smile confidently once again.

“How long was I asleep?” Lawrend asked.

“A whole day, Master. I heard from Sister Aleshia that the little kids are curious about what happened. They tried to visit you several times,” Aezel replied.

“I see. Let’s go back then.”

Lawrend, Aezel, and Ramiela returned to the training grounds.

“Master!” Aleshia called out.

Amene: “Nyaster!”

Grape: “Master!”

Elena: “Master!”

Ella: “Master!”

Humility: “Master!”

Nao: “Master!”

Ember: “Master!”

Basically, all of Lawrend’s maids were there. They called out to him, filled with worry. They released a huge sigh of relief after seeing that he appeared to be normal.

“Everyone is here. Safeguard my body.”

Lawrend didn’t wait for their response. He walked through them and sat beside the table with the mattress.

“Veronica, lay down again,” Lawrend said.

“Yes, Father~”

Veronica was still confused about the whole thing, but she obediently followed his orders and lay on the mattress.

Lawrend closed his eyes and his soul left his body. It was the first time for the others to see Lawrend’s bare soul, and they widened their mouths in amazement.

Lawrend’s soul entered Veronica’s mind once more.

He looked around and saw the chained-up other Lawrend in the center. He flew towards it and meditated in front of him.

“Father?”

“Relax, Veronica. I will free you,” Lawrend said.

He focused his attention on his soul and separated his soul. He knew enough about his soul to be able to do it.

Instantly, searing pain spread through his whole body. It was sharp and dug through every fiber of his being. He got a severe migraine and it felt like he was slowly sawing his body in half.

The combination of these painful sensations made Lawrend shiver. He gritted his teeth and resisted himself from letting out a sound because he might injure Veronica’s weak soul.

A few hours passed by but Lawrend wasn’t done yet. He was only halfway there.

At this point, a crack from the top of his head to his chest was visible on his soul body. Veronica could hazily tell that he was doing something weird. Unfortunately, she wasn’t strong enough to tell.

Lawrend renewed his conviction midway. He thought about his motivation for this. It was to make Aezel happy and to guarantee that Veronica would have a prosperous future.

He sacrificed a lot already. He was halfway through cutting his soul in half, and he had already sold himself to the Goddess. He still had no clue if he would be able to break free from the soul contract.

A few more hours passed. If Lawrend’s soul was still in his physical body, he would’ve made a pool of sweat under him.

And finally, with one last bit of pain, he was able to sever his soul in half.

It was a weird feeling when he finished.

The two halves of his soul moved away from each other and the empty halves were filled up, resulting in two new Lawrends. The two stared at each other blankly.

They grabbed each other’s hands and the Lawrend to the right slowly lost his body’s form. He turned into a semi-transparent ball of smoke.

“Finally, done.” Lawrend released a sigh of relief.

He succeeded in severing his soul and transferring all of his consciousness to one of them. The other was now a blank slate that waited for another consciousness to fill it up.

“Veronica, it’s your turn.”

Lawrend grabbed the empty soul and flew beside the other Lawrend. He placed the empty soul on his forehead and closed his eyes.

“Veronica… Come into this soul…”

Lawrend held the other Lawrend’s wrist and sent bits of his soul into the other Lawrend’s soul body. These bits of his soul scared Veronica’s weak consciousness, and he manipulated her to gather at the forehead of the soul body.

The consciousness was a vague idea. Lawrend had no clue what he was doing. The small part of the Goddess that he received detailed this process very clearly.

Lawrend controlled the empty soul and had it connect to the forehead. It then slowly accepted Veronica’s consciousness. Her consciousness flowed inside like water returning to the lake.

It was as if her consciousness belonged there in the first place.

Lawrend patiently waited and stared at it.

Slowly, a figure of a human being appeared from inside. First, a face, then the body.

Finally, a minute later, Veronica appeared in front of Lawrend.

The moment her soul body formed, she became limp and fell forward. Lawrend quickly caught her and softly laid her on the ground. Even though this was inside her mind, there was still a floor for souls.

Lawrend looked back at the chained other Lawrend and glared at him angrily. He used his leftover powerful soul mana and shredded his soul body to pieces. The chains shattered and the other Lawrend’s eyes opened for a brief moment.

There was intelligence in them. Alas, Lawrend’s powerful soul mana quickly shredded his soul body to pieces. His soul might be from another world, but it was still mortal.

Lawrend continued using his colorful rainbow mana until he couldn’t shred the soul any further. He gathered the pieces into a pile and opened Veronica’s mouth.

And just like tending to the sick, Lawrend fed her the shredded soul body. It wasn’t like eating raw meat, rather, it looked like she was eating semi-transparent jelly.

Lawrend took his time until he finished feeding them all to her a few hours later.
