Combat Maid Harem

Ember gritted her teeth and focused on enduring the pain. She couldn\'t tell what was going on since the power of the bloodline and the ember obscured her internal senses.

Lawrend floated behind Ember and waited for an hour. Everyone else stared at Ember nervously. Seeing someone like her in pain told them of how much pain she was feeling.

It must be to the point where they would faint.

After the hour passed, Ember was drenched in sweat. She looked like a beauty that got dipped into a puddle of water.

"It\'s done…" Ember weakly muttered.

She could feel the change within her body. Her mana had changed to that of the Divine Fire and her bloodline improved by several times. She could also sense Lawrend\'s heartbeat clearer than the others.

She felt connected with him. She was a part of him, and he was a part of her.

"I\'m not worried you can\'t do it," Lawrend said.

"Mm."

Ember nodded her head and looked at him solemnly. She gathered her last remaining strength and poured them into controlling her new Divine Fire mana.

She sucked in the remaining demonic fire mana clouds and incorporated them to her body. The whole surroundings suddenly changed as a giant 3D hologram of a phoenix appeared out of nowhere.

It was gigantic with the size that reached up to the clouds and down below to the red sands. Ember was directly at its center.

Golden threads came down from the sky and converged to her head. They formed a connection with her physical body and connected to her soul.

She was now… a Heaven Mage.

It was simple as a lot of the problems had been resolved by her in the years she had waited for Lawrend to become a Heaven Mage. Those problems could\'ve been solved by becoming a Heaven Mage, but she did it before becoming one.

"Master, I\'m a Heaven Mage now!" Ember said with a joyful smile on her face.

Her goal of becoming a Heaven Mage had become true. She felt powerful and could do anything.

Lawrend flew forward and caught Ember. She didn\'t realize it, but she stopped using her magic to float in the air.

"Eh?"

Ember looked at him with a confused look on her face. She struggled to keep her eyelids open and couldn\'t utter a proper sentence.

"Relax. Your body suffered a lot of trauma. You\'re a Heaven Mage now."

Lawrend reassured her. It was hard for her body to suddenly change bloodlines and then contain the new Divine Fire mana.

The powerful feeling she got was simply because of the difference of her strength from before to after.

Ember slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Lawrend turned around and flew to Aezel.

"Take care of her."

"Fufufu. Sister Ember looks so defenseless and beautiful right now," Aezel replied as she took Ember in a princess carry.

Ember\'s lips were slightly open and her face was relaxed. She was like a lifelike doll.

Inferno flew to them and checked up on his mother.

"Mother usually looks ready to fight any time. It\'s so rare to see her like this," he said.

"Go."

Lawrend urged Aezel to leave. She briefly bowed her head before flying back to Ember\'s house.

"You have so many Heaven Mages on your side," Juju said.

She couldn\'t believe what she was seeing. If she didn\'t see them happening before her eyes, she wouldn\'t believe it that a single man could control such a powerful force.

Maybe the only one above Lawrend was the fabled Divine Demon.

"Don\'t forget you\'re on my side too," Lawrend replied with a chuckle.

"Jujuju."

Juju covered her mouth and laughed.

"Ella, you\'re next."

Lawrend pointed at the young teen among his maids. She bowed to him and appeared an arms length in front of him.

"Master, you already know."

Ella didn\'t need to say anything since she was aware of Lawrend\'s elemental eyes.

"Is it hard to become a Heaven Mage with Space Magic?" Lawrend asked.

"Mm. I have no idea how to confirm some of my theories."

"I will help you with that. I\'m a Space Heaven Mage, too."

"Please do so, Master. My Big Sister is slowly inching past me."

Ella blushed at the mention of her Big Sister. She was still feeling competitive with her and wouldn\'t let Aleshia win over her. She was the little sister, so she wanted to be the one to help her instead.

"Hmph."

Aleshia flew forward with a displeased expression on her face. She stood beside Ella and looked her up and down.

Ella bared her fangs and the two had a stare down in front of Lawrend.

"What are you two doing?" Lawrend asked with a frown.

"Master, I\'m an Earth Mage too. I won\'t let my \'Little Sister\' become a Heaven Mage first."

Aleshia was clearly annoyed at Ella always trying to one-up her. As the Big Sister, she had her pride to uphold. The competition between the two of them was very passionate.

"Enough. The two of you, return. Humility, come forward."

Aleshia and Ella bowed to him before leaving.

Humility flew forward and shyly rubbed her legs together. Being in front of Lawrend after he complimented the others for becoming an Earth Mage or a Heaven Mage was like walking into a fancy restaurant as a homeless person for her.

She didn\'t fit in.

"A Grand Mage. What have you been doing since I was gone?" Lawrend asked in a heavy tone.

He wouldn\'t tolerate it if she kept slacking like this. Compared to his other maids, she had no reason to be this lacking. She wasn\'t like Grape, who had sufficient reason for her lack of magic strength.

She wasn\'t working and managing any empire in this empty desert.

"Master… I\'m sorry. I\'ve been missing you every single day. I can\'t get enough sleep nor could I focus. The only thing that comforted me was my finger. I have also stored up a lot of my essences–"
