Combat Maid Harem

"I'm not. Aezel became my maid after I met her in the capital city," Lawrend replied.

"Fufufufu. Nice to meet you again, Reon," Aezel said with a smirk on her face.

"You demonic bitch! What did you do to Lawrend!?" Reon shouted in anger.

"Master is… My Master," Aezel replied as she kneeled on the ground and lifted Lawrend's shoe before licking it.

"A-Aezel…"

Lawrend stared at her in a fluster. They never talked about doing something like this. He felt so embarrassed and fulfilled at the same time that he was confused about it.

"L-Lawrend… Did you really?" Reon asked with his eyes bulging widely.

"Y-Yeah… Don't ask why she licked my shoe, though," Lawrend replied awkwardly.

Even though he normally acts confident, getting your shoe licked without getting prepared for it was something else. No one would be able to stay calm in such a situation.

Aezel smiled at Lawrend and stood up from her position.

"As you can see, I'm Master's maid. If you are not my Master's enemy, you also aren't my enemy," Aezel said.

Her words convinced Reon. After all, demons are known for their pride. If she was able to lick Lawrend's shoe, that would mean that she really surrendered herself to him as his maid.

"Disgusting masochist," Ramiela commented from the side.

She stared at Aezel with a face full of disgust. She recognized Aezel as a Fallen Angel that could be converted back to an Angel, and yet she licked a human's shoe. All of her hopes for her evaporated in that instant.

"Fufufufu. At least, I'm true to myself," Aezel retorted.

"Guhun–!" Ramiela twitched in shock. She felt like Aezel struck something in her heart.

"What does she have to do with it then, Lawrend? Don't tell me you're planning to use her to betray humanity?" Reon asked with a solemn look on his face.

"Why would I even do that?" Lawrend asked.

"There are a lot of cases of humans betraying humanity," Reon replied.

"I don't plan to do that. I want you to support me in my coup," Lawrend replied.

"Coup? You're gonna usurp the throne?" Reon asked as he looked at him with disbelief.

"Yes. It may not look like it, but Aezel here is as strong as an Earth Mage. We can easily take the throne from the king. We just need your support to speed up that process," Lawrend explained.

"Really? Then don't involve me."

Reon looked at Lawrend skeptically. It was hard for him to believe that an Earth Mage would lick Lawrend's shoe. After all, they should be something that only Empires should have.

Not to mention, Aezel was only as strong as an Arch Mage the last time they fought. He doesn't believe that she could become that strong in less than two months.

"I'm worried that the cities would rebel, and the kingdom might get split in half. If that happened, there would be many casualties. I just want to prevent any of that," Lawrend explained.

"So you're worried for the citizens of the kingdom, yet you're usurping the throne?" Reon asked and gave him a weird look.

"Well, it's not my idea. The Third Princess wants me to take the throne, but that's impossible unless her two elder brothers died," Lawrend replied.

"Just kill them then. Why go through all the effort?" Reon asked.

Each of Reon's questions brought Lawrend to reality.

"..."

Lawrend stared at him in a daze. Why didn't he think of that?

"Aleshia, call Humility," Lawrend ordered.

"Yes, Master," Aleshia replied and left.

"She's coming," Lawrend said to Reon.

They waited for a minute before Humility arrived.

"Yes, Master? What do you need me for?" Humility asked in a cheery and excited voice.

"Can't we just kill your brothers? That way, you can take the throne, and I would become king," Lawrend asked her.

"I don't like that option, Master. I want your bloodline to be the Royal Bloodline of this kingdom. If not, my sister's sons and daughters won't have the right to the throne," Humility replied.

"You can change that after you become the queen, no?" Reon asked.

"You can't. I'm afraid some bastard of my father would rise up and usurp the throne, causing chaos throughout the whole kingdom," Humility replied.

"You have really thought about all of this, haven't you?" Reon asked with a wry smile on his face.

"Yes. It's all for my Master. He deserves to rule this kingdom," Humility answered resolutely.

"Fine. Since you're the Third Princess, I will support Lawrend. After all, it doesn't make a difference for me. Just give me some benefits afterward," Reon replied.

"Thank you, Reon. Who's the city lord of this city?" Lawrend asked.

"There are no city lords for this city. The Sword Guild and the Mage Guild are on similar power all the time. Even right now, they also have two Hill Swords from the capital city," Reon replied.

"Can you convince them to swear allegiance when I take the throne?" Lawrend asked.

"That's not a problem. That man is my friend. We have fought together so many times. If I convince him, even the visitors from the capital city won't be able to object to our decision as we are the ones in charge here," Reon replied.

"That's great. Thank you, Reon," Lawrend replied and smiled at him in satisfaction.

"I don't have any problems with the king, but if the talented Lawrend would become the king, then I would rather choose you," Reon explained.

"Thank you for trusting me. I thought you wouldn't after I showed Aezel's face," Lawrend replied.

"Hah. If you can give me the chance, I will drain her of all the water in her body," Reon replied with a wide smile on his face.

"Do you dare?" Aezel asked and puffed out her chest.

"Calm down, Aezel. He won't really do it."

Lawrend stood in between the two of them.

"Fufufufu.. He won't last a flick of my finger anyways," Aezel said and turned around.
