Combat Maid Harem

"That was a Grand Mage!?"

Aleshia shouted in shock. She felt totally vulnerable against him. His power was on another level compared to Reon and that demon woman. ????????n????ℯ????????. ????om

"I believe so. Only a Grand Mage could make me feel so powerless."

Olgar nodded his head grimly. He never expected that a Grand Mage would appear. The only thing he remembered happening was seeing Ella's Mana Resonating Stone floating in her palm.

'It couldn't be!? Was that really Space Magic??'

Olgar immediately thought of a possibility. He remembers hearing the mysterious man say that it was space magic. What the hell was space magic anyway? It was something that Olgar never heard or encountered before.

"Anyways, let's go before they wake up."

Olgar recovered himself and urged them all. They nodded and followed him to leave the Testing Grounds.

…

"... And after that, they enrolled into the Undrasil Mage Academy. I haven't gotten into contact with them ever since."

Olgar finished his narration to Lawrend. Right now, they were sitting inside a cafe. Olgar's story was just so long for Lawrend to listen while standing.

"How do I enter this Undrasil Mage Academy?"

Lawrend asked Olgar with a serious expression.

"With your Elite Mage status, you may be able to take the test. But it's not easy. The test filters all of the applicants to only the best of the best. If you can't outshine them, you'll fail."

Olgar explained to Lawrend.

"What happens if you fail?"

Lawrend asked curiously.

"You won't be able to take the test for 2 years."

Olgar answered.

"That long?"

Lawrend looked at Olgar in disbelief. That means that if he fails the test, then he wouldn't be able to meet Aleshia and the rest for another 2 years.

Or unless he wants to wait in front of the inn every day till they come out. But even with that, they were already enrolled in the academy. He won't be able to meet them every day.

"Yes. This is so the applicants will give their best for the test. Many don't want to miss 2 years' worth of education. Their peers will leave them in the dust if that happened."

Olgar nodded his head and explained to Lawrend.

"When is the next examination day?"

Lawrend asked Olgar with gritted teeth. He's gonna make it into the academy no matter what!

"Next week."

Olgar replied.

"I'm assuming that they accept True Mages, right?"

Lawrend asked Olgar. Since Elena was able to enter, then True Mages should be accepted.

"They do. ...Wait! Are you a True Mage already!?"

Olgar nodded his head, and he quickly realized what Lawrend's words implied.

"Yes."

Lawrend nodded his head candidly.

"A monster. If you didn't start late, you may be at my level already."

Olgar smiled wryly. He knows that Lawrend only started practicing magic recently. As for him, he had been practicing magic since he was 7 years old.

"Haha, maybe…"

Lawrend's cheeks couldn't help but twitch after hearing Olgar's words. His hate for his father has ignited once again. That old man didn't even consider testing if he could practice magic or not.

"Anyways, I still have something to do. I'll be staying in a nearby inn."

Lawrend stood up and bid farewell to Olgar.

"Alright. I'll be at the Mage Guild. Come there if you have any problems."

Olgar nodded his head and also bid his farewell to Lawrend.

Lawrend left the cafe and looked left and right. It was already deep into the night. He couldn't help but feel bad for Aezel.

He quickly found a tailor shop and bought a maid uniform for her. He didn't know her size, but he had already seen and touched her body plenty. He can guess what clothes would fit her.

"Next, a mask."

Lawrend said out loud. He then found a shop that sells masks.

"Hmmm…"

Lawrend looked around. There were different designs and sizes of masks.

Any of them could work, but Lawrend remembered the two large horns on Aezel's head. Those two horns were shaped straight and at least 5 inches (12.7cm) in length.

"How am I gonna hide those?"

Lawrend wondered out loud. He couldn't just put a large hat on her head, could he? She would be wearing a maid uniform. It would be very odd and suspicious.

"Hello, young man. Do you want anything?"

A fatty with a wicked smile walked towards Lawrend. Lawrend couldn't help but turn towards him in surprise.

"Ah, yeah. Do you know anything that can hide a large tumor on your head?"

Lawrend answered and asked.

"A tumor?"

The fatty looked at Lawrend in surprise.

"Hmm… I collected a lot of exotic things in the past. Maybe this can help you."

The fatty browsed through the shelves on display. After a few rustles, he pulled out a blue ring with beautifully carved edges.

"This is a Fantasy Illusion Ring. It can be used to change the appearance of any part of your body with the power of illusion magic."

The fatty showed the ring to Lawrend with a business smile. He was like a scheming merchant in Lawrend's books.

'Hehehe. I don't even know if illusion magic exists.'

The fatty laughed inside his head.

"How does it work?"

Lawrend asked the fatty.

"Presumably, you wear it on your ring finger. After that, you just need to imagine what body part you want to change the appearance of."

The fatty explained.

"Presumably?"

Lawrend noticed the fatty's words.

"Yes. So far, I haven't been able to use it."

The fatty explained to Lawrend with a sigh.

"But if it's you. You can certainly make it work."

The fatty smiled at Lawrend.

Lawrend shook his head at the fatty's pathetic attempt to scam him.

"I'll take it together with that mask over there."

Lawrend said and pointed to a white mask with a hex symbol. He thought that it would fit Aezel to wear a mask with that design.

"Hehehe. Thank you for your patronage."

The fatty laughed victoriously. Customers as gullible as Lawrend are one of his favorite ones.

"..."

Lawrend took the ring and the mask from him. He paid him using the gold bills he had. They didn't get wet before as he kept them inside a waterproof small bag inside his clothes.

Lawrend then left the shop with a smile. If there's one thing that games in his previous life had taught him, it was that this ring is special.
