Combat Maid Harem

Chapter 400 - Brewing With Nao

"Unfortunately, we dueled just now, and he died," Lawrend replied.

"!?"

The four High Mages stared at Lawrend with wide eyes. They couldn't believe what they just heard.

"Sir… Did you say that you killed the Guild Master Crescendo?" a High Mage asked.

"I did."

Lawrend nodded his head and reaffirmed their doubts.

"Sir, is it an accident?" one of the High Mages asked.

"Erm… There's no more trace of him left. I thought he was as strong as he claimed," Lawrend replied awkwardly.

He realized that they want to see the Guild Master's corpse. The problem was that Aezel cleaned up all of the mess.

"..."

The High Mages looked at each other, dumbfounded. Lawrend's words mean that Crescendo boasted of his great strength before he died to Lawrend's spell.

"It will be hard if this city doesn't have a Guild Master, right? I will take it upon myself to take care of it," Lawrend replied.

"Sir, that is not how it works. We will confirm it with the Mage Guild Headquarters of the capital before you can become the Guild Master of this guild," a High Mage replied.

"Fine. I can wait," Lawrend replied.

"We will contact you after the investigation was done," the High Mage said before they left.

They would contact the Mage Guild at the capital city. The Mage Guild of the Capital City would then send an Arch Mage to investigate what happened. They could also confirm if Crescendo was still alive with a magic artifact in their hands.

Shortly after, Lawrend, Aezel, and Humility returned to the inn.

"Master, are you sure about this?" Humility asked.

It will be hard for him to leave the city if he became the Guild Master. It would be his duty to guard the city in case of an attack.

"I will just leave Elena as the acting Guild Master," Lawrend replied.

"Ehhhhh?? You're leaving me, Master??" Elena asked.

She was very attached to Lawrend. Ever since he first picked her up, she stayed on his side. She would be very sad if they part again.

"Besides me and Aezel, you are the strongest one here."

"B-But what about me! I will be sad without you, Master!" Elena implored.

"...Alright. I will stay here for as long as I can. Is that okay for you?" Lawrend asked.

"Hmmmm… Promise me that you will love me more?" Elena asked with puppy eyes. She walked up to him and grabbed his two hands.

"Alright."

Lawrend nodded his head. Was that even a question?

"Yay! Thank you, Master!"

Elena kissed him on the cheeks before running away and sitting back on the bed.

Currently, he, Aezel, Elena, and Humility were staying in the same room together. The others stayed in their respective rooms.

"Since Sister Elena would act as the Guild Master while Master is gone, I don't think there would be any problems, Master," Humility said.

"Right. For now, I will go teach Nao again," Lawrend said and left the room.

He entered the room on the other side of the hallway. Inside it were Nao, Ramiela, Aleshia, and Ella.

"Master!" x4

The four of them stood up and called out to him when they saw him enter the room.

"Nao, how was it?" Lawrend asked.

"It's okay, Master. I can do it for 20 minutes now," Nao replied.

"Wow! That's a massive improvement! You will become even better after I teach you," Lawrend said and smiled at her.

He sat beside her on the bed and started discussing magic with her. As they were talking with each other, Aleshia and Ella couldn't help but join in. Ramiela could only watch as she wasn't familiar with human magic.

Thus, the discussion about magic proceeded smoothly. Aleshia and Ella presented their unique views about magic and expanded both Nao and Lawrend's knowledge.

After a whole day of teaching and discussing with them, Nao finally managed to keep her Glowing Fire Hand spell working for an hour. It was enough in Lawrend's eyes.

Tomorrow, Nao would start working on brewing potions. After that, Lawrend would be able to start making gold through her help.

He kind of felt bad allowing her to do it all herself, so he opted to help heat the potions up, so she could rest when she needed to.

…

The next day–

Same procedure as every morning, Lawrend ate breakfast with them.

Then he would teach Nao and help her brew potions. By the end of the day, they ended up with 101 successful potions. The others all turned to scrap from their mistakes.

It turned out that brewing potions with two people were much harder than Lawrend anticipated. Nao couldn't tell how hot the potion was as she wasn't directly controlling the heat.

The only thing she could do was deduce the heat by observing the liquid in the flask. This resulted in a lot of failed batches.

But of course, they managed to improve with every failure. Throughout the whole process, their chemistry for each other improved. They became able to read the other's body language to assume their actions. Albeit very imperfect.

At night time, he found himself stalked by a perverted angel.

When he left Nao's room, Ramiela followed after him and intercepted him before he entered his room.

"Master… You forgot about our promise," Ramiela said as she grabbed his hand from behind.

Lawrend turned around and looked at her. He saw intense desire deep in her eyes. He knew that he had to satisfy her tonight.

And so, Ramiela led him to an empty room in the inn. He didn't know how she knew it was left open and empty, but it didn't matter for the both of them.

Ramiela sat on the bed and spread her legs open.

"M-Master… It's itchy… It wants your thing…" Ramiela said with a red face.

She couldn't believe that she was saying such lewd things as an angel.

Lawrend walked up to her and lifted her chin upwards to him.

"Let's watch each other masturbate," Lawrend said.
