Combat Maid Harem

“Are you satisfied with this, Your Imperial Majesty?” Niko asked nervously.

“Yes. You can leave now,” Lawrend replied.

He was happy and didn’t find there to be any problems with this place.

“Please call for me if you need anything.”

Niko bowed and left.

Ember closed the door and walked to the bed with Lawrend.

“Prepare a bathtub for the both of us,” Lawrend ordered.

He then grabbed a chair and sat beside the window.

Ember nodded and didn’t say much. Deep down, she was very excited to take a bath with him. She carefully poured water from the freshwater spout mechanism in the bathroom.

It was similar to a faucet but square in shape and used gravity instead of water pressure.

She filled the bathtub and used her fire magic to quickly heat it up to a perfect warm temperature.

Ember dipped her arm inside and felt the temperature. She was satisfied with it and left the bathroom.

“Master, our bath is ready.”

pan-da-n0vel.com Lawrend didn’t respond. He continued staring outside the window. By this time, there were only stars outside, and the moon hung high up.

“Master..?”

Ember walked towards him and peeked out the window. She was curious about what he was watching.

“Ember, do you think there are other worlds out there?” Lawrend asked.

“Worlds? Why would there be other worlds out there? Are you talking about the demon world?” Ember asked back.

“*Sigh* One day, I will know why,” Lawrend muttered to himself and stood up.

“Huh?”

Ember blinked her eyes at him. She was confused at what he meant, and he didn’t offer her any explanation whatsoever.

Lawrend was reminded of his previous world after his cooking earlier in the morning. He naturally didn’t want to come back, but he was curious if there was a way.

With his space magic, would he one day be able to travel in between worlds? It was a crazy thought. If he met the Goddess again, he would make sure to ask her if it was possible.

Lawrend undressed and soaked himself in the bathtub. He was absentminded and didn’t even glance at Ember’s nude body. Ember noticed it, and she was perplexed.

“Master, what are you thinking about?” she asked.

“Magic is an amazing thing. What would you be without it?” Lawrend asked her.

“What are you even asking, Master? Why would there ever be a time without magic?” Ember asked and looked at him weirdly.

She found his question odd. She felt like this wasn’t the matter she was used to being with.

“I would be a normal human being if I had no magic. I will never meet any of my maids, nor will I be able to do anything,” Lawrend muttered and ignored her question.

“Master?”

At this point, Ember was concerned for his wellbeing. No one in this world would ever question the existence of magic. She knew he was talented and a genius when it came to magic, but this was something bizarre.

“I feel something, Ember. I can feel the world. It feels like it can take away my magic if it wants to,” Lawrend said and stared into her eyes.

Ember stared into those red eyes and saw seriousness. There were no jokes nor humor to be found. It was all pure and untainted. His statement was full of honesty and no lies.

“I didn’t feel that when I almost became a Heaven Mage. All I felt was that the whole world around me was under my control,” Ember replied.

All Ember could do was answer him. She was clueless about what he was thinking.

“I wonder what would happen if I become a Heaven Mage? Would the world take away my magic because I’m too talented?”

Lawrend gripped his right fist. It was his greatest fear to lose his magic. It was everything he had in this world.

Ember embraced him and said, “Master… Stop thinking about that. Why would the world take away your magic? You’re the best mage out there!”

She rubbed his back and pressed her soft breasts against his chest. She was trying to distract him from his negative thoughts.

“It is precisely because I’m too good.”

Lawrend closed his eyes in Ember’s embrace. Soon, his breathing calmed down, and he fell asleep.

Ember furrowed her eyebrows and felt worried. Why would her Master suddenly think of those things? She spent the next few hours remembering everything she knew about magic.

Still, there was nothing in her mind that could explain why he thought of that. She had never heard that the world could take away someone’s magic because it had never happened before. If it was true, it would be a scary discovery.

Ember washed Lawrend’s body and carried him to the bed. She then covered his body with a thick blanket before going to sleep right beside him.

“Welcome back, Lawrend,” the Goddess said.

She was still the same beautiful woman sculpted by a godly sculptor. Her beautiful curves were something even Ember couldn’t match up against.

“Tell me the truth,” Lawrend asked with a sharp gaze.

Unlike now, where his current appearance was his appearance in this world, his previous appearance was him from his previous life.

“Your current appearance changed to reflect who you think you are. It seems that you have accepted yourself as Lawrend Horiel,” the Goddess muttered as she observed him.

The two of them were standing a couple of meters apart from each other.

“Tell me the truth! Am I going to lose my magic!?” Lawrend hysterically asked.

He was desperate to know the answer. Magic was his only hope of enjoying his life. What would his maids think if he suddenly lost his magic? He would become a good-for-nothing, and they would quickly leave him for someone else.

“Your magic… Yes. The world will take it. Your power level is out of bounds for the norm in this world. Once you become a Heaven Mage, it will realize your threat to it. After all, the world is… Nevermind.”
