Combat Maid Harem

"Hehehe. You can visit me any time," Lawrend said and closed his eyes.

Aleshia strutted out of the room with her back straight. She was proud that she managed to keep her future position as his first wife.

Lawrend didn't practice magic on the bed because it was sopping wet with Aleshia's squirt juices. It wasn't a problem for him since the floor wasn't too bad since it had a carpet.

...

Half a day went by, and Lawrend stopped. He and Aleshia finished last night. It was morning now.

He stood up and left the room. He walked towards another hotel room and knocked on the door.

*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*

"Master?"

Ember opened the door. Her hair was messy, and she looked sleepy.

"Do you want to go out on a date?" Lawrend asked.

"Eh?"

Ember didn't expect him to suddenly ask her out on a date so early in the morning.

"Actually, I want to buy materials for Amene's bow. I don't know this city much, so I want you to help me."

"Give me a minute, Master. I will wash my face and fix my hair."

Ember closed the door. Lawrend waited for a few minutes before she walked out.

"Let's go. I know a place where they sell a lot of rare materials from inside and outside of the clan."

Ember led the way, and Lawrend silently followed behind her. Inferno wasn't with them as he was with Elena. He was socializing with his half-brothers and half-sisters.

The moment the duo stepped out of the hotel, they were immediately noticed by everyone. The eyes of those that were present during that day became pale. As for those who had only heard about the story, they became curious about Lawrend and Ember.

"Master, let's walk together," Ember said.

She extended her hand out, and he took it with a smile on his face.

"So you want everyone to see how intimate we are?"

"Hehe. Yes. It will discourage others from messing with you. I don't want them to incite you to trigger the defense mechanism of this city," Ember replied with a giggle.

"I want to try doing that now."

"No, no! Master, you don't understand. The defense mechanism consists of multiple magical formations. As I said before, it can defend against a Heaven Mage, but it can also counterattack with a volley of Earth Mage spells," Ember rapidly explained. The panic on her face wasn't faked. She was actually scared about him trying it out.

"Why can't it counterattack with a Heaven Mage spell?" Lawrend curiously asked.

"Well... I don't know, but the Phoenix Main Hall can."

"I see. I will ask the ancestor about it once we get there."

Lawrend looked down at the road they were walking on and saw the faint flow of pure fire mana through invisible lines. The whole city was basically a magic formation.

"I will make a city like this in the future," Lawrend said.

He was fully interested in this concept. He learned a lot just by entering one of their cities. He couldn't wait to enter the Phoenix Main Hall, which was supposedly the center of the clan with Heaven Mages residing within.

"I will help you, Master."

Ember looked at him and tightened her grip on his hand.

"Of course. You're my maid."

...

The duo arrived at a bazaar with hundreds of shops in view. Many of them sold eccentric items that were never seen before. Though, their effectiveness was to be questioned.

Lawrend looked around and saw clothes, weapons, staffs, mana stones, and various materials for a variety of purposes. Everything seemed to be in this place.

"This is the Eridanus Bazaar. You can set up shop here as long as you pay the tax to the City General."

"So that guy before was like the mayor of this whole city?"

"Apparently. Hmph. He was too cocky," Ember snorted at the mention of him.

"Are you the City General now?"

"No. The clan will appoint another Elevated Earth Mage."

"Will you get punished?"

"I will kick those old geezers in the balls if they try to, Master. He insulted you, so he deserved death!"

Ember's mood turned ice cold, and her gaze became as sharp as a predator hunting prey. She was angry to the point where she wanted to kill Lucid again, even though he was already dead.

"I will help you if you get punished," Lawrend sincerely said, tightening his grip on her soft hand.

"Master... If you say it like that, I want to get punished by the clan now," Ember replied with a silly smile on her face.

"Hahaha! Alright. Let's go look for the materials I need," Lawrend said.

He pulled her, and they looked around the various stalls selling materials. Many of them were common materials, and it took Lawrend a few stalls before he found an item he needed.

"The Elusive Deep Sea Vine. It is a vine so strong I can use it as a bowstring for Amene's bow," Lawrend muttered as he stared at it.

"Mister, do you want it? It's 100 Earth Mage Fire Mana Stone," the seller said. [AN: I will be honest, I forgot this currency existed.]

"Huh..."

Lawrend slowly moved his head to look at Ember. He did a rough estimation in his head and realized that he was too poor to buy this item. He mostly had a ton of gold inside his Storage Ring and only some mana stones.

After all, he didn't really need the mana stones. They were just a waste of money for him since they were expensive. The only use he got for them was when setting up magical formations.

"I will pay for you, Master."

Ember quick-wittedly understood what was going through Lawrend's mind. She spent a lot of time with him and understood him. He would never make this face unless he was troubled.

"Mm." Lawrend nodded his head.

He felt slightly embarrassed. He was her Master, but he was making her pay for his stuff.

"I'd already given you my most important wealth. This is nothing," Ember said with a faint smile on her face.
