Combat Maid Harem

"Better answer?"

June furrowed his eyebrows at Lawrend.

??

"Lawrend! What Kenova said is textbook information! It couldn't get anymore correct than that."

Humility tugged Lawrend's cloak anxiously.

"I'm sure that my answer is more correct. Or rather, his answer is wrong!"

Lawrend pointed at Kenova. He was not doing this because he wanted to. He was simply tired of people thinking that he was a pushover.

"Hmm? Very well."

June's expression turned solemn. Lawrend stood up.

"I think mana is not the energy that we use to create our spells. I think mana is our spell. It is only because of the different way we use it, does it change form and take on different kinds of spells."

Lawrend explained to all of them. This was an enlightenment he had when Aezel taught him that being struck by lightning helps you learn to control magic.

"Where did you learn this?"

June raised an eyebrow. There was an inkling of disbelief on his face.

As for Lawrend's classmates, they were all looking at Lawrend skeptically like he was some sort of an idiot.

"Hah. Stop trying to impress a girl you will never be able to court."

Kenova sneered as he sat on his chair.

"I'm not impressing anyone. I simply want to show everyone in this class how stupid you are."

Lawrend shook his head as he explained to him.

"Hmph. Keep making excuses. We can all see your motives."

Kenova snorted while he kept looking straight.

Meanwhile, June's face has been darkening as he listened to the two of them argue. His cheek twitched when Lawrend said that he was showing to everyone how stupid Kenova is.

"Lawrend, can you explain in detail what you mean?"

June asked Lawrend solemnly.

"Alright."

Lawrend nodded his head.

He then proceeded to explain what he knew about lightning magic, and how to increase your control on your mana to increase your mana purity.

"U-Unprecedented!"

June looked at Lawrend in disbelief.

"What the…"

Even Kenova's face was ashen. He doesn't want to admit it, but Lawrend's explanation makes more sense than what he was taught.

"Who taught you magic?"

June asked Lawrend excitedly.

"I learned by myself. Though, someone taught me things that caused me to learn what I just explained."

Lawrend replied humbly.

"And who is this teacher of yours?"

June asked in anticipation. He was dying to know who could possibly have such a high comprehension of lightning magic.

"She's… I don't think she'd want to be named."

Lawrend stopped and smiled. It was obvious that his explanation will attract a lot of attention seeing June and the class' reaction to it.

Who knows? Maybe it would even attract the attention of that Grand Mage that captured her before. He wasn't even sure if Aezel's horns are actually hidden to a Grand Mage. It would be a disaster if she was caught because of his mistake.

"...That's a shame. Alright."

June nodded his head reluctantly. He was very eager to know who could possible teach this knowledge to Lawrend. It would surely further their understanding of magic. It was not just the Lightning Department that would benefit, but the whole academy.

Kenova looked at Lawrend in fear. He had kicked an iron plate. He thought that it would be easy to win against Lawrend since he wasn't from the capital city but oh boy, he was so wrong.

He swore to himself that he would stay further away from Lawrend and never disturb him again.

As for the class, they all looked at Lawrend in awe. He just toppled the ideas that they were taught in his explanations.

Humility stared at Lawrend. It's hard to know what was going through her mind.

"Oh, right. Mr. White, can you be the witness for Kenova's challenge to me?"

Lawrend smirked.

He could guess that Kenova would give up after knowing that he was smarter than him. It's a disadvantage for him that Lawrend has the memory of his previous life as his thinking is molded by science.

"Hm? Is it true?"

June turned his head to Kenova and asked with a raise of his eyebrow.

"M-Mr. White, he's lying!"

Kenova immediately shook his head vigorously. He wouldn't go court his death now that he knew he had no chance of winning against Lawrend.

"Mr. White, Lawrend is saying the truth. It was Kenova who initiated the challenge."

Humility stood up for Lawrend. She was disgusted seeing Kenova back out like a coward. She doesn't like him one bit, especially since he's being antagonistic to Lawrend.

June turned his head to the students in the class and saw them nod their heads one by one. They were all supporting Lawrend. They believe that he will become someone important in the future so this was their chance to curry him a favor.

"I saw it too, Mr. White!"

Levin stood up and said to June.

"Me too!"

"I've seen it!"

One by one, each of the students in the class presented themselves as a witness.

"Hmph. So you're a coward? You're backing out now after realizing that you can't win against Lawrend?"

June snorted and looked at Kenova in displeasure. He can't believe that he thought so well of him before.

"M-Mr. White, that isn't the case! I just thought that it wouldn't be worth Lawrend's time…"

Kenova hurriedly explained himself in a panic.

"I don't care! You think you're so smart, huh. Serves you right for being too arrogant. You already challenged a new student in our class? How disgraceful of you."

June berated Kenova angrily. What he dislikes the most are people bullying others.

"Mr. White…"

Kenova stared at June in disbelief. His heart ached hearing the June that always praises him to say such heartwrenching words.

"Enough. I'll be the witness to this challenge. Tell me the details clearly. If you dare lie, I'll demote you to Class D."

June said in a deep tone of voice. He threatened Kenova so it would be hard for him to lie.

"It's like this…"

Kenova slowly explained what his challenge to Lawrend was.

"Hm? You still hadn't betted anything?"

June raised an eyebrow and turned his head to Lawrend.
