Combat Maid Harem

Chapter 432 - Tension Eased



In humanity's eyes, they were parasites. That was also one of the reasons why the war between the two races practically never stopped.

Lawrend glanced at Aezel before answering Creka.

"Yes. She wanted me to impregnate her."

"Interesting. I can feel the aura of life in her stomach. Don't you know that she would kill you one day?" Creka asked.

He looked at Lawrend with playful eyes. He wanted to see the shock on his face when he realizes that his so-called 'maid' was actually a parasite.

"She tried, but we resolved the issue," Lawrend replied calmly.

"W-What!? Is that true??" Creka asked Aezel with bloodshot eyes.

If that was true, then that would mean that demons would not need to kill their human partners anymore. At least, there would be a chance for reconciliation.

"Can you tell me how you did it?"

Creka was like an excited child who found a new toy. His eyes were shining in excitement and curiosity.

"I split my soul in half and gave it to her."

Lawrend did not want to reveal that he had two souls. It was weird in the first place.

"!?"

Creka stared at Lawrend like he was looking at a monster. Well, who wouldn't?

Why would he split his soul to give birth to a child for a woman from an enemy race? It didn't make sense.

"We kind of hit it off. I managed to find a rare plant that heals souls, so I decided to try that method," Lawrend lied with a straight face.

Aezel was staring at him with a wide mouth. She never knew that he could spout bullshit so calmly.

"Hmm… Alright. I believe you. The only problem is…"

Creka trailed off his words and closed the file.

"There was no mention here that you were a fire mage before."

Lawrend's cheeks twitched in response. Of course, it wouldn't be there. He never displayed in public that he was able to use Fire Magic after he learned how to.

"Either this was an elaborate scheme from the other continent, or this demon set all of this up, or you hid it to protect yourself," Creka said.

Those were the only reasons Creka could think at the moment.

"So… why don't you make an oath? Swear that you are not working for anyone from the other continent and that you are not under this demon's control."

"Really? That's easy."

Lawrend smirked and raised his hand.

"I swear upon the World, that I am not working for anyone from the other continent, and Aezel did not scheme all of this, may the world take back all of my mana if there is any falsehood within my words," Lawrend said.

It wasn't exactly as the oath he used before, but it will make do. The content of the oath was not important anyway. What was important was that he made an oath to the world.

As the world gave all of its mana for the mages to use, it was also capable of taking it back. If it sensed any falsehood with its all-encompassing reach, it would immediately take all of the mana out of the mage's body.

If they tried to resist, their bodies would explode.

*BOOM!*

A clap of thunder crackled in the sky.

"You passed. When do you want to go to the empire?" Creka asked and nodded his head in satisfaction.

"After a week? I need to make some preparations," Lawrend answered.

"Alright. We will be staying in the Mage Guild. Don't try to escape. You will lose the kingdom if you do," Creka said and stared at Lawrend solemnly.

He turned around and beckoned the Grand Mages to follow after him. Creka believed that the kingdom was valuable for Lawrend.

He wouldn't have fought several Grand Mages and an Earth Mage if that was not the case.

They soon disappeared from Lawrend's view, and he was able to relax.

"Finally… It's all over," Lawrend said.

He felt Aezel's touch behind him, and he leaned towards her. She supported him, and he recovered a tiny bit of the mana he lost.

"I think I already know what Lightning Arch Mage spell I should make," Lawrend muttered with a smile on his face.

He got inspiration from Verkoli's spell earlier. He was also able to use an almost instantaneous movement spell because of him.

Well, it actually wasn't a spell. Lawrend was forcefully mimicking the spell. It was very wasteful and every time he uses it, he would have wasted 20x more mana compared to using a real spell.

Right now, he was quite exhausted. If he didn't have Fire Mana, he would have already ran out of mana from dodging their attacks.

The Fire Disintegration spell also drained his fire mana. Right now, he could only cast two Fire Disintegration spells before he would be spent.

It sounded a lot, but he still needed to use those fire mana to insta-cast lower-level spells. At most, he could use it to cast a single Fire Disintegration spell before he would be forced to retreat.

"Congrats, Master. You should take a rest," Aezel said and rubbed his shoulders.

"Let's go back down," Lawrend said.

His group flew downwards and the battle in the sky finally ended.

The eyes of the citizens present in the capital city were all full of awe. They felt the waves of mana crashing and gathering above them.

If it were not for the powerful Arch Mages guiding the weaker mages away from the center of the capital city, there would be many casualties just from getting hit by the stray bursts of mana.

After all, raw mana was a kind of attack. It was very sloppy, but it works.

At the moment, there were only Arch Mages 5 streets around the Royal Castle. Even they felt strained standing so close.

The difference between an Arch Mage and a Grand Mage was not short, after all.

"Beloved Master!"

Aleshia ran to Lawrend and embraced him tightly.. She sniffed his scent deeply and confirmed that he really was still alive.
