Combat Maid Harem

Chapter 216 – Humility’s Cooking Talent

Lawrend entered the dining room. He looked around and saw that it was empty. He, Elena, and Aezel were the first to enter.

"Elena, do you still remember my staff? I don't know where I put it," Lawrend asked.

"I know, Master! It's under my bed in our room," Elena replied.

"Really? I will get it later," Lawrend said.

"Sure."

And so, the three of them waited for Humility to finish cooking. While they were waiting, Aleshia and Ella arrived. Following behind them were Amene and Grape.

"Master, I already met my little sister," Amene said.

"That's great! Where was she?"

"She was with the little girl you talked about. She lives there now."

"You mean she's living in the Grey Clan?"

"Yes. Nimela took her in after Aleshia and the others moved here."

"You left her there?" Lawrend asked in surprise.

"Mm. We spent the whole day together. Tomorrow, I will spend my time there too," Amene replied.

"Alright. The two of you can sit here. Let's wait for Humility to finish cooking," Lawrend said.

"Yes, Master," Amene and Grape replied.

They waited for half an hour before butlers carrying food arrived.

Seeing the butlers, Lawrend couldn't help but think about his home at Lanika City. His 'maids' are not serving him like maids. They were living more like noble ladies.

This wasn't how it was supposed to be. He wanted to have a 'maid harem' not a 'noble lady harem'. He looked around at all of them, including Humility who arrived with a tray of food.

"Everyone, I have something important to discuss tonight," Lawrend said to all of them.

Everyone turned their heads and looked at Lawrend in puzzlement.

"It's about what it means to be a maid. I'll give more details later. Let's eat for now," he said.

Everyone nodded their heads. Humility walked towards him with the tray.

It was a bowl of steaming hot meat stew.

"Here, Master. I cooked it with 'love'," Humility said as she placed the bowl in front of him.

"Thank you, Humility. This red color looks appetizing," Lawrend said with a smile.

"Thank you for the compliment, Master. That is a wild wyvern stew. It's soft and tender yet very flavorful. Once you bite into it, it will melt and explode with umami inside your mouth," Humility said with a proud smile on her face.

"Wow. A wyvern? They cook those?" Lawrend asked her in surprise.

"They do, Master. It's very rare which is why only the upper echelons of the kingdom eat it," Humility explained.

"I see. Let me try it," Lawrend said as he took a spoonful of a small piece of meat and a generous amount of stew.

He put it into his mouth. The stew washed all over his mouth. It tasted meaty with a dash of salt and other spices he couldn't name.

He took a bite of the meat and it melted like butter. There was delicious fat mixed into it. It was like he was eating A5 wagyu meat back in his past life. Though, there were some clear differences.

He could sense fiery mana in this meat. He could guess that it was the mana of the wyvern when it was still alive.

"This is delicious… Did you really cook this? There's no way a novice could cook something this delicious," Lawrend said to her in disbelief.

There's no way a novice like her could have cooked this. Even the fact that she only learned this in a week! She also had other things to do. She probably hadn't even cooked that many dishes.

"Ehehehe. I cooked it with 'love'. Of course, it will taste good," Humility replied smugly.

"I guess the saying is right. Food tastes better when it was cooked with love," Lawrend said to her with a gentle smile on his face.

"Right? Here, Master. Let me feed you…"

Humility grabbed the spoon in Lawrend's hand and scooped some stew.

"Say Ahh~," she said gently like a mother feeding her child.

"Ahh~"

Lawrend obliged her and opened his mouth like a kid. This was his reward to her for cooking such a delicious meal.

*Stare~~*

Aleshia, Aezel, Elena, Ella, Amene, and Grape stared at Humility feeding Lawrend intently. They were all feeling envious. They wanted to feed Lawrend too! So unfair!

"Master, I will feed you too!"

Elena stood up and walked towards them. She stole the spoon in Humility's hand before scooping some stew.

"Ahh~ Open your mouth, Master. Let me feed you," Elena said.

Lawrend still had some meat stew in his mouth. He hurriedly swallowed it seeing her move the spoon closer.

He opened his mouth and took the spoon in his mouth.

"Fufufufu. My turn, Master," Aezel said as she stood up and took the spoon from Elena's hand.

Aezel spoonfed Lawrend with a smile on her face. She thought that this was fun.

Seeing that Elena and Aezel already did it, Aleshia also stood up. Ella followed behind her. They each took turns to feed Lawrend.

Amene and Grape looked at each other and nodded. They stood up and also fed Lawrend.

By the end of the dinner, everyone was given the chance to spoonfeed Lawrend. They all thought that it was very fun.

"I'm full…" Lawrend said as he rubbed his stomach.

They all took turns and spoonfed him at least three times. When the meat stew ran out, Humility entered the kitchen and got more.

"Hehehehe. You enjoyed it, right, Master?" Humility asked Lawrend with a smile.

"Hahahaha. That's true. Your cooking tastes really good. You will be our chef from now on," Lawrend said.

"Huh? Chef? What do you mean, Master?"

Humility blinked her eyes at Lawrend in confusion. She couldn't wrap her head around what he meant.

"Starting from now on, we will be the only ones left living in this mansion," Lawrend explained to her.

"Huh!?"

Humility and the others widened their eyes in shock.

"D-Does that mean that the butlers will leave too?" Humility asked.
