Combat Maid Harem

The blow shook Lawrend's soul, and the changes in his planetary system returned back to before.

The volcanoes stopped spewing hot magma, the sun calmed down, and the moon seemed to lack something.

Lawrend regained his wits and sensed his surroundings. He repeatedly looked around him. He looked up and looked down, but there was nothing. There was no one except for the weaker monsters in the forest below.

"What just happened?"

Lawrend panicked. He sensed that he was about to become a Heaven Mage, but something struck back and shattered his attempt. Knowing that someone could stop him scared Lawrend.

Especially since he couldn't sense who did it.

"Master, what was that?" Valentina asked within his mind.

"I don't know. How come you don't know? Was that someone?" Lawrend asked a barrage of questions.

He was too anxious. It was a chance for him to improve, but it slipped his hand like a slippery eel. He didn't know when would be the next chance for him to get it again.

"I also have no idea, Master. I sensed your Will spread out to the universe, but then another Will came back, and it was the opposite of yours," Valentina answered with audible confusion.

"You hadn't encountered it when you became a Heaven Mage long ago?"

"Nope. I smoothly became a Heaven Mage."

Lawrend stopped looking around and stared at the sky. He had a hunch that it was the Goddess' fault. She was the only one capable of doing something like that.

"Argh! Goddess, explain yourself to me! I thought you wanted me to be your Sub-God!" Lawrend shouted in anger.

"..."

There was no response.

Lawrend was frustrated. He looked back towards the Ignis Clan and disappeared.

…

An hour later, Lawrend arrived at the Phoenix Main Hall. He was slower since he didn't exert his Space magic that much. He also took breaks in between to recover his lost Space mana.

"Master, what happened!?" Ember worriedly asked.

The others surrounded Lawrend, who had just entered the Juvenile Mansion. He sighed and explained to them what had happened.

"So Master almost became a Heaven Mage, but the Goddess stopped you?" Ember repeated in shock.

"I will go meet her right now. Don't worry. I'm stronger now," Lawrend confidently replied.

He was much stronger than the last time he met the Goddess. Although he was still insignificant before her, Lawrend felt more confident about escaping quickly. The Goddess also wouldn't kill him since he still had a soul contract with her.

There was no reason for her to kill him. At least, that's what he tried to believe. It was still possible that she wanted to kill him.

"Master! You're taking so many risks!" Aleshia complained with a frown.

She didn't want him to meet the Goddess. She had always opposed him doing risky things. She didn't want to lose him. She was worried for his safety.

"I know, Aleshia… But this is my life. It won't be peaceful unless I fight for it," Lawrend replied.

His answer stumped Aleshia. She stared into his eyes and saw the confidence and determination he had to do this. She closed her eyes and nodded her head.

"Thank you."

Lawrend was glad she didn't try to stop him any further.

"Master, I will stand by your side," Ramiela said.

"Thanks."

They made way for Lawrend and Ramiela. He entered the main bedroom with her and closed the door. As usual, he lied on the bed and went to sleep.

"I will be by your side, my God," Ramiela said gently.

The darkness enveloped Lawrend's vision as he opened his eyes. It was like he didn't open his eyes at all.

"You failed," a sweet and calming voice sounded behind him.

He swiftly turned around and saw the Goddess' faintly glowing body. She looked ephemeral and attractive. Her perfectly carved body bested even Ember's.

"It was your fault," Lawrend replied in a deep voice.

He suppressed his anger. He knew he was powerless before her, and he didn't want to get too near her, or it would be impossible for him to escape.

"That was not me. If you blame all of your problems on me, we will never be amicable with each other," the Goddess replied calmly.

Her face didn't show any emotions toward his accusation. It was as if she had already expected his words.

"Then who!"

"You can only blame yourself. The universe does let anyone become strong so easily."

"So you're saying the universe is hindering me?"

Lawrend's anger dissipated by half. He stopped and thought about it. That Will came from all directions. It was as if the whole universe responded to him.

"Hehehe. Seeing you so frustrated brings me joy."

The Goddess gleefully laughed. Lawrend was annoyed at her.

"Control your angels better. They tried to kill me," Lawrend said and changed the topic.

"You're not one to order me around. Besides, I let them have their free will. If they want to disobey, they already know the punishment I will give."

"So you're going to let them kill me?"

Lawrend squinted his eyes at her.

"If you die, it's not my fault. You were simply too weak. As my future Sub-God, you're not going to die that easily, are you?" the Goddess grinned.

It was a smile so beautiful, but Lawrend had the urge to punch her. He was still frustrated with failing to become a Heaven Mage, so it was easier for him to feel annoyed.

He took a deep breath even though he was in his soul body. It helped relax his raging emotions.

"How do I succeed next time?" Lawrend asked, trying to calm himself as much as possible.

"If you really want to become a Heaven Mage, you will become one…"

.

. .

. . .

. . . .

. . . . .

Lawrend suddenly opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling.

He looked to his right and saw Ramiela on the large bed, holding his hand.

"Was it a success, Master?" Ramiela asked.

"Yes. It wasn't the Goddess."
