Combat Maid Harem

The instant Logan heard Lawrend's shout, he was presented with an opportunity to slip up on purpose so Lawrend suffers.

"Ghh! No!" Logan resisted the idea with gritted teeth. It was like the devil had tempted him, but he refused!

His grudge may be deep, but his determination to impress that girl is not shallow!

"+Radial Wall+!" Logan shouted, and he insta-cast towering walls around Lawrend.

Thud thud thud thud thud…

The wall continuously made thud sounds as the leaves hit it.

The wolves lack precise control of the leaves, and they could only barrage the wall and try to take it down.

"Thank you, Logan!" Lawrend shouted in gratitude. He would have been pierced to death if Logan didn't do his job.

"Now, my turn…" Lawrend murmured to himself with a smirk.

"O' great Amber, be my electron and kill my enemies, create silver clouds that fill my horizon, Judgment Smite!" Lawrend chanted out loud with his arms opened up to the sky.

Suddenly, thick and heavy clouds enveloped the whole sky.

"What's he doing?" Joseph asked in confusion.

Lawrend was currently trapped inside the Radial Wall. It would be impossible for him to target the wolves unless he escapes from it.

Boom

A loud thunderclap sounded from the sky. It was like something terrifying was accumulating inside it.

"Haha, Hahahaha! I… I finally understand what they meant when purer mana controls more environmental mana. This is not just more! It's so powerful!" Lawrend laughed to himself maniacally.

The feeling of power brought by magic made him feel unstoppable.

Boom Boom Boom Boom

Without any warnings, lightning bolts started falling down from the sky. It attacked the whole area around Lawrend with reckless abandon.

"Run!" Nuon shouted.

He and Logan turned around and ran deeper into the forest to escape the scope of Lawrend's magic.

Does it even have to be said what happened to the wolves?

Not just one lightning bolt hit the wolves, but rather, more than one for each wolf. As a result, their bodies were turned into burnt and scattered flesh.

"Wow!" Nuon exclaimed in shock as he watched the scene. It was like Lawrend was wreaking havoc onto this part of the forest.

"Crazy!" Logan shouted. He couldn't believe that someone could even use magic this powerful while being a True Mage.

"I fear that this is not just a True Mage spell…" Joseph commented in awe. He had also moved away with them.

"D-Does that mean that he's already a High Mage!?" Logan asked Joseph in disbelief. No matter how he thought of it, he would never guess that Lawrend was that powerful already.

"No, but… He should be very close," Joseph replied to him.

Gulp

"..."

Logan was speechless. He actually tried to anger this guy? How foolish of him! He himself hadn't even felt that he was close to becoming a High Mage.

"Magic is just a tool. What's important is that you have the hand to use that tool, and your imagination is that hand," Lawrend said to himself with a wide smile plastered on his face.

"Once I can completely simulate a whole spell inside my mind, down to the tiniest details, then I'll be able to cast anything!" Lawrend shouted in realization.

"+Lightning Ball+!"

Lawrend insta-cast a purple lightning ball. It flew towards his front and knocked out an exit for him.

Boom Thud Thud

The wall exploded and the heavy rocks that formed the wall fell to the ground with loud thuds.

"Hey, are you guys okay?" Lawrend asked them with a confident smile on his face.

"W-We are," Nuon replied with a forced smile on his face.

"Y-Yeah," Logan was sweating bullets. He felt awe and respect for Lawrend right now.

"Great work, Lawrend!" Joseph complimented him.

He watched his performance the whole time, and he was beyond speechless. At least, he was sure that even if Lawrend fails this special mission, he would still have the same benefits he would have gotten had he won it.

"It was nothing. I just tried some ideas," Lawrend shook his head humbly.

"Alright, let's start eating the wolf meat. This time, because of your performance, I'll cook for all of you today," Joseph said to them with a smile.

"Nice!" Nuon shouted in excitement.

"Thank you, Lawrend."

Logan went over and shook his hand.

"Ah, yeah."

Lawrend wasn't ready for Logan's handshake. He didn't even imagine that his attitude would take a 180-degree turn.

"I'll listen to your commands from now on. My pride is nothing compared to your skills… I have truly been very pathetic!"

Logan bowed to him deeply. He was now convinced that Lawrend would be able to lead them to success. After all, he wasn't even sure if he can win it with him in the lead, but he's sure that with Lawrend's offensive power, everything will be easy.

"It's good that you understand," Lawrend replied with a smile on his face.

Logan's cheeks twitched hearing his words, but he still smiled at him nonetheless. Lawrend's words sounded a little too arrogant for his pride to take. He had to remind himself to let it go.

And so, Joseph cooked a lavish wolf meat meal for them. ????????????????????a????. ????૦????

"What's this puppy doing?" Lawrend asked as he saw the little wolf pup hiding under the wyvern.

It looked at Lawrend with dread and fear.

"Awo! Awo!" It barked at him in fear.

"Hey, I'm not gonna hurt you, you can go," Lawrend urged the wolf pup with a smile.

Of course, the wolf pup wouldn't be tricked. It just saw its mother and father get killed in his hands right in front of it.

"Here, wolf meat?" Lawrend offered to the wolf pup.

Its eyes suddenly widened seeing the meat in his hand.

"Wait, why am I feeding you this? I scared you so much…" Lawrend said to himself with a wry smile.

He pulled back his hand and stood up.

"Anyways, let's go," Lawrend said to Joseph, who was rubbing the head of the wyvern.

"Alright."

Joseph nodded his head.

And so, they flew away from this place. They left the lone wolf pup alone. Lawrend didn't think it was needed to kill it too as it was innocent and harmless.
