Combat Maid Harem

None of them were hurt. The shockwave simply passed through them as it covered the whole Lightning Department building in a dome of purple lightning.

"Y-You started the Lightning Department's defensive magic array all by yourself!?" Galak exclaimed in disbelief.

"What?"

Lawrend's eyes went round as he stared back at him. He thought that it was just a simple magic array to test his magic.

"A-Amazing…"

The other instructors in the room stared at Lawrend in amazement. They were all lightning mages in here.

Starting this magic array was harder than you would think. It's easy to light it up halfway but it becomes progressively harder. It would take almost all of them just to start it all the way.

"A prodigy! Elena, there's another prodigy besides you!" Galak shouted.

"Yes, Instructor," Elena replied with a bow.

'As expected of Master,' Elena thought to herself proudly.

"That's natural for a human like him," Ramiela commented.

He was the only human who was able to impress her. She even thought that he was a god which was embarrassing.

"Fufufufu." Aezel laughed proudly.

She doesn't need to say anything. It was as she had expected.

"They will finally know Master's worth. At last," Aleshia said.

"That's correct, Sister Aleshia." Elena nodded her head in agreement.

"Lawrend, where did you get that Beginner Mage spell!?" an instructor asked him crazily.

"Why?" Lawrend raised an eyebrow.

"I know who made that," the instructor replied.

"Someone gifted it to me," Lawrend replied truthfully.

Since he's already strong enough, he didn't worry that they would find fault with him for getting it from a black market. Although, he technically got it as a gift after he taught the seller some magic knowledge.

"Seriously? I've never been able to find it. Who gave it to you?" the instructor asked him in surprise.

"How do I say it… Someone with a black hood gave it to me when I was traveling," Lawrend replied awkwardly.

His description wasn't gonna be of help. It made him feel embarrassed since it seemed that the creator of the Beginner Mage spell was important to the instructor.

"What..? I've been trying to find this magic spell of my older brother. I never thought someone would just give it away," the instructor said in a daze.

"You're his brother?" Lawrend widened his eyes in surprise.

"Yes. My name is Xervius. My older brother was the late Arch Mage Klustervius. He was a talented mage of the kingdom that died in a war against a neighboring kingdom," Xervious replied.

Xervius was a middle-aged man that had sprinkles of white on his hair. Like all the instructors in this room, he was an Arch Mage.

"Wow. I'm thankful for your older brother's creation of this magic spell. It helped me improve as a lightning mage," Lawrend said as he bowed to him respectfully.

The Beginner Lightning Mage spell was very simple, but it was also flexible. Lawrend had found many uses for it in the past. He even managed to create a True Mage version. The creator definitely deserves his respect.

"I'm sure he'd be glad… You're so talented. I hope to see more from you in the future," Xervius replied to him solemnly.

"Yes. You don't have to worry about that." Lawrend raised his head and smiled at him.

"Good! I like your confident attitude!" Xervius exclaimed happily.

"Lawrend, since you're a Third-Year now, you won. We'll be giving the Mana Stones to June later," Galak said.

He wasn't sad or angry. In fact, he was happy. He was proud that their Lightning Department had someone as talented as Lawrend.

"About that, I want to take the test to become a Fourth-Year," Lawrend replied with a wry smile on his face.

"What!?" Galak shouted in disbelief.

He rubbed his eyes and looked at him clearly.

"Don't tell me you're also confident in it?" Galak asked.

"Hahahaha… I just remembered something," Lawrend replied with a laugh.

He remembered that Elena was about to become a Fourth-Year soon. He might as well become one right now. This way, he would become even more talented in their eyes.

Once he gets their recognition, it would be easier for him to take the throne next month. After all, they would be hopeful of his future. A future with a very talented king.

"...Alright." Galak nodded his head solemnly.

The other instructors in the room became dead silent. They were excited about Lawrend's success but hearing his words made them feel overwhelmed.

This would be the first-ever moment in the history of the academy that someone would jump from the First-Year directly to the Fourth-Year in one day.

"I will supervise your test," a voice said.

Everyone in the room turned their heads and looked towards the entrance. There was a man wearing a purple cloak. He exuded an invisible aura of power around him.

"T-The Purple Thunder Grand Mage!" June exclaimed.

Instantly, everyone in the room widened their mouths in shock. They were all Arch Mage's here that were stuck for years to dozens of years.

They were all respectful to him, who could ascend to become a Grand Mage.

"Sir," Lawrend called out to him.

"Mm. I didn't expect you to come here instead of coming to me. You're already an Arch Mage, right?" Verkoli said.

What he didn't know was that Lawrend wasn't an Arch Mage yet. It's because of the power of his Divine Lightning that his High Mage strength seemed like an Arch Mage strength to Verkoli.

"I planned to come after this," Lawrend replied.

"Well… In my eyes, you're already worthy of being a Fourth-Year and even graduation, but for formality's sake, I'll still test you," Verkoli said.

"My pleasure," Lawrend replied.

"Good." Verkoli nodded his head in satisfaction.

Meanwhile, Ramiela was furrowing her eyebrows as she stared at Verkoli. She could feel the strength brimming inside his body.

"A powerful human…" Ramiela commented.

As for the others, they were all awestruck. At this point, they wouldn't be surprised if Lawrend succeeded.

The Purple Thunder Grand Mage already acknowledged him, and they seem to know each other. That was enough to satisfy them.

"Test Master, explain what he has to do to become a Fourth-Year," Verkoli said as he looked at Galak.
