Combat Maid Harem

Chapter 64 - Ella Healed And The Sister's Past



"Muu?"

Ella turned her head to Lawrend's arms. To Allen, who was not mentioned all this time.

"This is Allen."

Lawrend introduced to Ella. He saw the curiosity she has in her eyes when she saw the unfamiliar creature.

"Allen? What is that Big Sister?"

Ella held onto Aleshia and pointed to Allen in Lawrend's arms.

"It's Young Master's pet slime."

Aleshia explained to her. Ella slowly walked towards Allen with interest.

"Allen?"

Ella patted Allen's top. In response, Allen merely looked at her and silently accepted her pats.

"Cute slime!"

Ella exclaimed after realizing that Allen is not a threat to her.

"Yes, Ella. Young Master also thought the same before."

Aleshia said to Ella while smiling at Lawrend. When Lawrend heard her words, he stood there awkwardly. She just revealed his dark secret.

"Wow! Young Master is a nice young master!"

Ella's impression of Lawrend became better after hearing her big sister's words. As a kid, she likes people who like what she likes.

"Cough."

Olgar, who has been standing there, coughed to gain their attention. He was starting to feel impatient watching them interact like this.

"Oh, right. Ella, take this."

Lawrend realized what Olgar meant. He pulled the vial that Natasha gave him from his pocket and gave it to Ella.

"Mu? A gift for me?"

Ella's eyes glowed brightly after seeing the beautiful vial in Lawrend's hand.

"Yes, it's Young Master's gift."

Aleshia said to Ella and gave Lawrend a meaningful gaze. Lawrend instantly understood her intentions.

"That's right, Ella. It's my gift for you."

Lawrend squatted down and grabbed Ella's hands. He opened her hand and put the vial inside before closing it.

"Thank you, Young Master!"

Ella replied to Lawrend with a bright smile. She was happy to receive a gift from him.

"Take care of yourself, Ella."

Lawrend rubbed her head and stood up.

"Did she have any problems these last few days?"

Lawrend turned to Albert and asked. He knew that Ella has an illness.

"She got sick for 2 days after you left. She also screamed in pain a lot while we took care of her."

Albert replied to Lawrend.

"Ella…"

Aleshia couldn't help but hug Ella once more. It pains her as her big sister to not be there when her little sister was experiencing her illness again.

"I'm okay now, Big Sister."

Ella hugged Aleshia as she reassured her.

"Mm."

Aleshia nodded her head and let go of her. She was glad that she finally has the cure for her little sister's illness.

"Ella, drink the vial."

Aleshia urged Ella. She couldn't wait to end this misery for her little sister.

"Okay!"

Ella agreed merrily and followed her big sister's words. She popped the cap on the vial with her small hands before downing it.

"Puah~"

Ella released a satisfied sigh after drinking the contents of the vial.

"How is it, Ella? Do you feel anything different?"

Aleshia asked Ella with worry evident on her face. She was eager to know if the contents of the vial really worked.

"AHHH!!"

Ella suddenly screamed just as she was about to reply to her big sister. She dropped and curled her body on the floor as she experienced agonizing pain.

"Ella!"

Aleshia immediately hugged Ella. She rubbed her forehead to help her ease the pain.

"It's okay, Ella. Big Sister is here with you."

Aleshia comforted Ella. Suddenly, Ella's forehead glowed brightly. Random and faint voices of different people sounded out.

"This daughter of yours-"

"Escape! Run! Run to the-"

"I… entrust the sisters to you…"

The voices then faded away into nothing. It was like it was all just a weird dream.

"W-What was that?"

Lawrend looked at Ella in bafflement. Whatever happened just now, it felt spine-tingling.

Ella's forehead slowly dimmed and a symbol flickered on it before disappearing entirely.

"Ella?"

Aleshia shook Ella who had her eyelids closed. She immediately feared for the worst. She grabbed her wrist and checked her pulse. Only when she felt her pulse beat did Aleshia relax. Ella was just unconscious.

"What happened?"

Lawrend asked Aleshia in worry.

"I don't know, but Ella is unconscious."

Aleshia replied before embracing Ella tightly.

Meanwhile, Olgar held his chin in thought. What happened just now felt like it was deliberately done by someone. Whoever could that be, they had to be a very strong mage.

"Just who are these sisters?"

Olgar murmured as he looked at Aleshia and Ella.

Aleshia carried Ella and laid her on the bed.

"What do you think was that?"

Lawrend asked Aleshia. He had some guesses but he wanted to ask Aleshia first.

"I don't know, but it sounded like they were running away from something."

Aleshia replied to Lawrend and gave him her thoughts.

"I thought the same. Do you know anything about your past?"

Lawrend agreed with her words. It was also what he thought when he heard the voices.

"I don't know, Young Master. The voices felt familiar especially the last one, but I can't recall who they are."

Aleshia was confused about it herself. She doesn't know why she even felt that the words were familiar when she could only remember growing up in the orphanage.

"What about you?"

Lawrend turned his attention to Olgar who had been lost in thought all this while.

"Hm? Me?"

Olgar was taken aback when Lawrend asked him as he was deep in his thoughts.

Lawrend nodded his head in confirmation.

"I think the little girl was sealed by someone on purpose. Those voices felt like they were left there by someone. The voices may be there to tell her that there was more to her past."

Olgar told them his conjecture.

"So you thought the same, huh?"

Lawrend replied to him. His thought was along the same line as his. The only different part was that he didn't think that someone sealed Ella on purpose.

"Does this mean that someone deliberately sent us to the orphanage? Could it be our parents?"

Aleshia asked worriedly. It didn't sit well for her to know now that her family might actually still be alive out there. When she suffered for 10 years, where were they? She doesn't even want to believe it.
