Combat Maid Harem

Although the Goddess told him that he wouldn't be able to practice the other elements anymore, he was still hopeful that she was wrong.

He felt dejected as he realized that he had made a mistake in the past. "If only he tried other elements in the past," that thought resounded inside his head.

"Are you okay, Master?" Aezel asked worriedly.

She could see the dejection on his face, and she couldn't figure out why he was dejected.

"Leave me alone for a while. I will practice my magic," Lawrend said to her solemnly.

"Okay..?"

Aezel nodded her head reluctantly. She sat beside him on the bed and placed her arm over his shoulder.

"Tell me what's wrong, Master," Aezel whispered softly.

"You wouldn't understand," Lawrend replied.

He didn't know if it was okay to tell her about the fact that he could have practiced the other elements too. She might think that he was crazy.

"Okay. I will leave," Aezel said.

She looked behind her at Lawrend before leaving the room.

Lawrend closed his eyes and got ready to chant the spell again.

*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*

Lawrend opened his eyes and looked at the door.

"Master, it's me," Aleshia said through the door.

"What are you doing here?" Lawrend asked.

"Sister Aezel told me that you're acting weird. She thinks that you're about to do something weird again," Aleshia replied.

"...Enter."

Aleshia was someone Lawrend trusted a lot. Maybe it was time for him to reveal to her who he actually was. If it was her, she could understand what he was thinking.

After all, she watched him change. If there's someone out there who would know more about him, it was none other than Aleshia.

"I know it will sound crazy, but… I could have practiced all the elements," Lawrend said and stared at her eyes.

"And?" Aleshia asked calmly.

"You're not surprised or anything?" Lawrend asked in amazement.

"Master, I already decided long ago to trust you with all my heart," Aleshia replied and smiled at him.

"Aleshia…"

Lawrend felt touched by her words. He raised his hand and caressed her face.

"So what do you mean by that, Master?" Aleshia asked curiously.

"I missed my chance to practice the other elements. When I tried to use the Beginner Fire Mage Spell earlier, it did not work," Lawrend answered bitterly.

He felt awful. He couldn't understand why he never tried learning the other elements.

It must be because of Olgar's words back then that having an affinity for more than one element is very rare. It became subconscious to him that he only has an affinity for one element.

"But wait…"

Lawrend held his chin in thought. He just remembered something.

"Huh?" Aleshia was confused.

"Aezel, do you still remember when I took a test for my element affinity?" Lawrend suddenly asked.

"Yes. Did you realize something?"

"Back then, the crystal ball showed lightning, but the lightning came from my body," Lawrend replied.

"And?"

"And I remember seeing a rainbow of colors swirl in the crystal ball before the lightning mana from my body took over. Doesn't that mean that my lightning mana is the one hindering me from using other magic?"

Lawrend couldn't help but remember what the Goddess told him before. She said to him that his lightning mana would prevent him from using the other elements.

And those words matched with his hypothesis. Then, the way for him to practice the other elements is to drain his mana.

The revelation made Lawrend's mind whir. He was enlightened. The path ahead became clear to him.

"No, Master. You're not doing that again," Aleshia realized what he was thinking.

She was already horrified when she learned that he had attempted to drain his mana before. She won't let him do it again, especially on her watch.

"But Aleshia, the benefits! Think about the benefits. I will be able to practice both Fire and Lightning magic," Lawrend said to her excitedly.

He will be like L*n M*ng and control the power of Thunder and Fire. The most powerful magic combination in existence!

"No, mean no, Master. I'm not risking losing you," Aleshia replied angrily.

She was worried that he would mess up and die. Draining your mana is akin to draining all the oxygen in your body. If that doesn't tell you how dangerous it was, I don't know what will.

"I… What do I have to do for you to say yes?" Lawrend asked.

"As long as I'm your maid, I will not allow you to do something so dangerous," Aleshia said seriously.

She crossed her arms together and stared down at him.

Lawrend puckered his lips and tried to think of a way to convince her.

"What if you become my wife?" Lawrend asked seriously.

"E-Ehh??? Your logic doesn't make sense, Master!" Aleshia shouted, flustered.

"If you're my wife, you're not my maid, right?" Lawrend said to her with a playful smirk on his face.

"Geez! You're making me blush. I-If I become the First Wife, I will allow it as long as everyone assists you while you do it," Aleshia replied with a red face.

"Deal!" Lawrend answered without any hesitation.

Her condition doesn't mean anything to him. After all, he had already decided in his mind long ago that she would be his First Wife.

"A-Are we getting married already??" Aleshia asked in a panic. Her heart wasn't ready for the sudden relationship boost.

"No. It will be in the future, but at that time, even if you become my wife, I want you to still be my maid," Lawrend said to her warmly.

"Geez. What kind of a wife is that? Fine."

Aleshia's cheeks flushed in embarrassment. She was only good at killing people. She wasn't used to flirting with someone.

"Lawrend's Wife," Lawrend answered smoothly.

"!!"

Aleshia's heart skipped a beat, and she looked away from him.

"If you die, I will follow you," Aleshia muttered softly.

"Well, I will never die.. I still haven't seen my kids," Lawrend replied to her confidently.
