Combat Maid Harem

After walking for about five minutes, they stopped in front of one of the trees in the forest. This particular tree has a width enough for five adults to wrap their arms around it.

"I will go first," Lawrend said.

He stood 10 meters away and took a stance before pointing his finger towards the trunk.

"+Shock Arc+!"

Zap! Boom!

An arc of golden lightning escaped his finger and hit the trunk. It zapped the tree and made it glow golden. While a small chunk of its trunk exploded outwards in a small explosion.

With the trunk's size that damage was insignificant to it.

.

"What? Is that it?"

Lawrend stared at it in disappointment. It wasn't any different than his purple lightning before.

"Wait, Master. Look, it's still glowing golden," Aezel said.

Lawrend looked at the trunk again.

Indeed, it was still glowing golden. It was like his lightning didn't dissipate yet. If it was his purple or red lightning, it would have already dissipated.

BOOM!

A thunderous boom suddenly sounded as the trunk exploded violently. Chunks of wood were thrown everywhere.

Lawrend and the rest covered their eyes using their arms.

The dust slowly cleared, and they were able to see the damage done to the trunk.

"W-What?" Lawrend muttered.

The tree trunk had at least one-third of its part disappear. They were now all scattered in the surroundings.

"Master, your magic is amazing!" Aleshia exclaimed in amazement. She gazed at the destruction with sparkling eyes.

"Fufufufu. As expected of lightning that Master discovered," Aezel said with a laugh.

"Wait… Something feels wrong," Lawrend said with furrowed eyebrows.

He sat cross-legged on the ground and closed his eyes.

Aezel and Aleshia looked at him in puzzlement.

Lawrend looked inside his body. He observed the amount of divine lightning he had.

'W-What!? It's less than before! I-I'm a True Mage again!?' Lawrend exclaimed in shock and disappointment.

He couldn't believe it. His abundant pure purple lightning disappeared just like that.

'No! No! No! How can I become an Arch Mage in a month if I'm just a True Mage right now?' Lawrend thought to himself in a panic.

He opened his eyes widely. Panic was visible inside it.

"Master? What's wrong?" Aleshia asked worriedly.

She can clearly see the panic in his eyes. Aezel also felt unsettled seeing his appearance.

"I-I'm a True Mage again…" Lawrend replied in a whisper.

"!"

"!"

Aezel and Aleshia widened their eyes in disbelief.

"Y-You're joking, right? Master?" Aleshia said with a forced smile on her face.

Lawrend turned his head away from her. There was no way he would joke about something like this.

"Master…"

Aleshia realized that he was speaking the truth. She felt bitter inside. With this, all of their plans are in shambles. No one in the kingdom would accept a weak king. They would likely be easily overthrown once they take the throne.

"Aezel, check yours too," Lawrend said as he looked at her despondently.

Aezel nodded her head. She sat cross-legged on the ground and closed her eyes.

After a while, she opened her eyes. She had a confused expression on her face.

"I-I'm at the same position, Master. I'm not a Noble Demon anymore…" Aezel replied.

"What are you now?" Lawrend couldn't help but ask.

"A Commoner Demon. Wait, should I still be calling myself that? I'm a Fallen Angel now," Aezel replied.

"I think it's okay. We don't know what a Fallen Angel is anyways," Lawrend replied.

"You're right." Aezel nodded her head.

"But Master, what are we gonna do now?" Aleshia said with worry evident on her face.

"I don't know. Can we delay it further?" Lawrend said.

"I'm not sure, Master. If we delay, there's no guarantee that we will have the same good chance we have now," Aleshia replied.

"... That will be a problem. I have to marry into the royal family if that happens. It will further complicate things since I already impregnated Humility," Lawrend said with worry on his face.

"We can escape," Aezel replied.

"Where?" Lawrend asked.

"To the north. Amene told me about the kingdom north that has a benevolent king," Aezel replied.

"Alright. Let's do that," Lawrend replied and nodded his head. That will be their only choice now.

"Master, I'm sorry that we can't give you this kingdom…" Aleshia said sadly.

"What are you apologizing for? You girls don't have to give me a kingdom anyways."

"Sister Humility said that Master will be really happy if we give you the kingdom," Aleshia replied.

"..." Lawrend was speechless. He opened and closed his mouth like a fish.

He didn't expect that they will have such thoughts after he left. He should really keep an eye out for them. He didn't know what they would do one day.

"Ehem. I will now try my divine lightning, Master," Aezel said.

Lawrend and Aleshia turned their heads towards her and watched.

Aezel did the same pose as Lawrend. She pointed her finger and… BOOM!

An arc of destructive golden lightning hit the same tree and shattered the remaining trunk all over the place. As a result, the giant tree started falling.

"Whoa!"

Lawrend ran away. He pulled Aleshia with her.

As for Aezel, she flew away. Since a Commoner Demon is equivalent to a High Mage, she had the capability to fly.

Crack, crack! Boom!

She flew towards Lawrend and Aleshia's side as they stood dozens of meters away. They stared at the aftermath in amazement.

"What was that, Aezel!? Did it even have the chance to explode like it did with mine?" Lawrend asked in disbelief.

"Master, you still hadn't realized?" Aezel replied as she turned her head towards him.

"What?"

"Even though we became weaker. Our magic is still as strong as before," Aezel explained.

"Oh. You're right." Lawrend nodded his head in realization.

"What? Really, Master?" Aleshia said in surprise. She didn't even realize it.

"Yes. I thought it was just my imagination because it doesn't make sense," Lawrend replied.

"Fufufu. Let's find a live target, Master. It would be interesting how it works," Aezel said.
