Combat Maid Harem

Immediately, everyone stood up excitedly. Not only would they be able to witness Olivus dueling, but they would also see the Lightning Empress duel against the so-called 'Lightning Emperor'.

The class walked down the stairs and headed to the open area outside the Lightning Department building.

"Who wants to go first?" Galak asked after they arrived.

"I want to go first," Olivus responded.

"Stand here and Lawrend, stand 10 meters in front of him," Galak said and pointed to the spot in front of him.

The other students made way for Lawrend and Olivus, and they stood far as to not get hit by stray magic.

"Ready?" Galak asked once they were in position.

The Lightning Sovereign staff appeared in Lawrend's hand, and a staff also appeared in Olivus'. The two of them took their fighting stances.

Lawrend stood calmly while Olivus firmly planted himself to the ground with his staff pointed to Lawrend.

Galak looked at the two of them before saying, "Fight!"

"Shackle Bolt!" Olivus shouted.

A long chain of lightning appeared out of nowhere and headed towards Lawrend.

"Shock Arc!" Lawrend shouted, and an arc of bright golden lightning shot from his staff.

BOOM!

The air in-between the two of them exploded, and they jumped back several meters away from their previous position.

"His lightning is really gold… Interesting," Galak muttered to himself.

Yesterday, they noticed that Lawrend's lightning was gold, but they didn't think much of it as lightning could even be red sometimes. Galak was now sure that Lawrend's talent was related to that golden lightning of his.

Olivus expected Lawrend to counterattack, so he immediately raised his staff again.

"High Potential Thunder!"

*BOOM*!

A thunderbolt fell from the sky in an exaggerated zigzag pattern, and it headed towards Lawrend at the speed of light.

Of course, Lawrend noticed Olivus raising his staff, so he was prepared.

"Shock Arc!"

*DA BOOOM*!

The ground around them shook as dirt flew everywhere. The two bolts of lightning negated each other.

"What!?" Olivus exclaimed in disbelief.

Lawrend used the same spell, and it managed to negate his magic. He can't believe it. From what he saw earlier, they both used Beginner Mage Lightning Spell.

He just used a True Mage Lightning Spell, and a lower-level spell shouldn't have negated it.

"Come again," Lawrend said.

Olivus frowned, and anger formed on his face when he saw Lawrend's taunt. He was a High Mage, and he is believed to be the most promising student in the Lightning Department currently. He felt his pride shatter from those words.

"O' Oblivion, sing your song, show your power, strike destruction onto this world, Lightning Catastrophe!" Olivus chanted.

Lawrend calmly watched him. As a result, Olivus became even more irritated. He was half-expecting Lawrend to interrupt him.

*BOOM BOOM*!

A huge ball of lightning slowly formed above the sky. Arcs of lightning came from the ground and the sky that made it grow bigger and bigger.

"You're too arrogant, Lawrend!" Olivus shouted.

He faced many foes as a student of the academy, and Lawrend was the first to disrespect him so much. Even when he was still a new student, no one disregarded him as much as he did.

*BOOM CRACKLE*!

It was like a broken dam when one side of the lightning ball exploded and released all of the lightning contained inside it.

"Lightning Sprite!" Lawrend shouted calmly with his staff pointed to the lightning ball.

One arc of lightning escaped the tip of the lightning before dividing into two, then to 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, until they were countless. The numerous lightning interrupted and negated the power of Olivus' magic.

*BOOM BOOM ZAPP BOOM*!

The flashes of light blinded the onlookers and made them turn away. When they looked back, the area between Lawrend and Olivus was destroyed beyond recognition.

"Is that enough?" Lawrend asked calmly.

Compared to the destruction around him, his cloak was in perfect shape, and he looked the same as before.

But Olivus was lying on the ground, powerless. One stray lightning struck him on his chest. If it weren't for his strong body, he would have already died.

"I…"

Olivus felt bitter. Everything happened so fast that he wasn't able to react to that stray lightning. He wanted to say that he could still fight, but he couldn't open his mouth.

Awe and fear formed inside his heart. He wasn't even able to make Lawrend sweat. He was defeated through and through.

Lawrend wasn't surprised that Olivus lost easily. His magic was strengthened because of his Divine Lightning. From the very beginning, Olivus never stood a chance.

"My turn," Elena said as she walked to take Olivus' place.

"Wait!" Galak shouted to stop her.

Elena stopped and looked at him in confusion.

"Olivus, do you still want a fight? I know you're holding back. You can use your family's heritage magic if you want," Galak said.

"My family's heritage magic? No… I will still lose," Olivus shook his head in amusement.

He slowly stood up from the ground.

His family was special. They have a lightning magic spell that has been passed down since forever. It was very compatible with their bloodline that it enhanced the strength of the spell by 50% more.

They also had extensive research about the spell, which made them very proficient in using it. Thus, that added another 20% more power for a total of 70% to their strength.

It all sounded good, but Olivus didn't believe that he would win with all of that. Although the spell was a High Mage Lightning Spell, he could feel that Lawrend was much stronger than that. He hadn't even seen Lawrend cast his High Mage spell, but his True Mage spell was already so strong.

It doesn't take a genius to realize that Lawrend's High Mage spell was very strong. Not to mention, he heard a rumor that Lawrend produced the lightning that appeared in the sky yesterday. He could confidently say that that rumor was 99..9999% true.
