Combat Maid Harem

As he said those words, Lawrend pulled Ember with his arm and embraced her. He then continued his words.

"... I was worried about your threat to my maids, so we ran away from this continent. I\'m not a coward. I simply did what I could to protect them…"

Lawrend\'s voice started growing in volume. His confidence rebuilt itself. His memories flashed from when he started regaining his memories to the present. All of the emotions and challenges he felt were rewound.

Alexis was shocked at the sudden turn of events. He watched on with his face filled with disbelief.

"I merged the conventional Lightning Magic with the Demon\'s Lightning Magic. I pursued perfection in my magic. I could cast spells with both of my hands. I simply needed to imagine a spell, and it would come to be without any chants.

"It might be possible for someone else to replace me and do the same things, but does worrying about those things really necessary? What matters is that I\'m here, and I\'m here to kill you," Lawrend uttered slowly and clearly.

By the end, his voice resounded throughout the whole Imperial Capital. Those who had heard it was initially confused, but their eyes widened in disbelief as they listened. His achievements were miraculous.

And the confidence he uttered those words was very enrapturing. Many women that heard his words couldn\'t help but look in his direction.

"You\'re lying! How can you merge our magic with the demons!?" Alexis screamed in refusal.

He was infinitely close to becoming a Heaven Mage, so he clearly understood their magic. He would\'ve already done it if it was possible to merge their magic with the demons.

In fact, he studied it before and deemed it to be a dead end. The laws of the two worlds don\'t match together.

"Have you tried merging them together early on? At the weakest moment, you can piece them together. It actually made me wonder if these two lightning magics were from the same source," Lawrend replied in a scholarly manner.

His answers were concise and understandable. Alexis\' mind quickly simulated Lawrend\'s words.

"I can\'t confirm now, but your words make sense!" Alexis exclaimed.

He couldn\'t believe the words coming out of his own mouth. He suddenly felt that he was wrong when he accused Lawrend of the stuff he said earlier.

Just the fact that he figured that out was enough to hail him as the greatest magic genius. His achievements definitely didn\'t only stem from his ancestors or the Goddess.

"I will show you the glory of my Divine Lightning and my Phoenix Fire!" Lawrend shouted.

Suddenly, the skies turned red and golden yellow. The lightning and fire mana in the air gathered together and condensed into brightly colored clouds.

"I won\'t let you!"

Alexis realized Lawrend was using this momentum to become a Heaven Mage. He was afraid because he was very clear about the difference between a Heaven Mage and an Earth Mage.

He tried dueling against Heaven Mages before. Needless to say, he lost in one move.

Of course, Lawrend wasn\'t actually becoming a Heaven Mage. He was attempting to become an Earth Mage through Lightning and Fire magic. But because of the power of his two magics, it summoned the phenomenon only commonly seen when an Earth Mage becomes a Heaven Mage.

"You need to get through me first," Ember said.

She flew forward and hovered in front of Lawrend. She exuded her powerful Phoenix Fire mana and readied for Alexis\' attack.

"I know about you. I can\'t say I\'m not interested in dueling you, but you have to make way!"

After saying those grand words, Alexis arrived in front of Ember. He swung a rock staff in his hand.

The earth below them suddenly moved. It swirled into a tornado of rocks. It then turned clearer and clearer before finally turning transparent.

This transparent tornado then turned sharp and attacked Ember. It was an attack comparable to getting jabbed with a sharp diamond spear.

A bright red and orange phoenix wings appeared behind Ember\'s back. She flapped those wings and instantly disappeared from her current position. She reappeared a couple of hundred meters away, still blocking Lawrend from Alexis\' way.

Naturally, Alexis was annoyed at her speed. He had dueled with lots of Fire Mages before. He had never fought one with the speed of a wind mage that slightly bordered the speed of a lightning mage.

That meant that he had to fight someone who had not only supreme attack power but also supreme dodging power. He would be lucky to hit her if he didn\'t plan his attacks.

"Stone Hails! Lava Geiser! Reverse Meteor!" Alexis called out speedily.

The Earth Mana in the air gathered around Ember and turned into hard stones. These stones rained on her like a hail storm. The ground under her rose up to form a volcano. That volcano wasn\'t any normal volcano.

It gathered inside and prepared a powerful pressure that could explode at her at any time. And then a large chunk of earth lifted up from the ground like a meteor but reversed. It was the same spell Yin Blumin used.

These three spells were used together in a perfect sequence. The stone hail rain would prevent her from trying to fly rapidly.

If she tried to fly and hit one of those stones, it would be painful. They might seem small, but hitting anything at high speeds could warrant death if severe enough.

The volcano was waiting for the right moment to shoot her with hot lava. But of course, Ember wasn\'t afraid of flames. The only problem would be the impact.

Getting hit with lava was synonymous with getting hit with a liquid rock. They were dense and would definitely hurt.

And there was also the reverse meteor. It would try to follow wherever she tried to flee to. It would make dodging difficult.
