Combat Maid Harem

Chapter 641 The Start of a New Era

The crowd was enlightened by Lawrend’s lesson. Night time quickly came without anyone feeling that time had passed.

“Meditate and think about your dreams, desire, and purpose. What is your Will?” Lawrend asked.

The crowd was stunned, and they swiftly crossed their legs together. Many of them found that they were clueless about what they wanted to do in life. They tried to find the Wills that they lacked.

Lawrend nodded his head in satisfaction after seeing everyone meditate. He could rest assured that his lesson was good.

“Aleshia, don’t let anyone get close to me. I will start laying down the defensive magical formation,” Lawrend said to a particular spot in the crowd.

The darkness rippled and Aleshia walked out from behind someone. She had been observing from there all along. She made sure that nothing out of place was happening.

“Yes, Master.” Aleshia nodded her head.

Lawrend walked to the Holy Sun Church. He lifted his hand up and focused on creating a sun. His Phoenix Fire Mana and Divine Lightning Mana flowed out of his palm and circulated into a ball before stabilizing.

It turned into a miniature sun.

Lawrend threw it up to the sky and the whole area around the Holy Sun Church was illuminated. Some in the crowd noticed it, while most were too focused to sense the change.

With better visibility, Lawrend flew around the Holy Sun Church and started carving shapes and symbols on the walls, pavements, roofs, etc. He used his lightning magic as a blade and filled them in with rare and expensive materials so they would work.

It was the only thing Lawrend did for the next twelve hours.

By the time he was done, almost everyone in the crowd had finished their meditation. They never left and simply watched him work.

Lawrend faced the crowd.

“This will be the main Holy Sun Church! All orders, scriptures, sacraments, and the like shall only be valid if they came from here!” Lawrend shouted in a solemn tone.

Many in the crowd looked at each other before bowing to Lawrend.

“Thank you, Your Divinity!” a voice shouted.

“THANK YOU, YOUR DIVINITY!!!”

A huge clamor occurred as everyone repeated that same phrase. Lawrend was their teacher and his lesson brought them great benefits. They would forever be indebted to him.

“Start!”

“Yes, Master!” Elena responded.

She flew out of the church in a religious outfit. She looked like a golden nun.

The defensive magical formation lit up and the shapes and symbols that Lawrend had carved appeared. A bright golden yellow light shone from the center.

In perfect timing, the sun appeared over the horizon.

“Hereby, I declare that the Holy Sun Church is now the foundation of the Undrasil Empire!” Lawrend shouted loud and clear.

A large golden dome appeared and covered the whole Holy Sun Church. Everyone that saw it was mesmerized. They were witnessing history in front of their eyes.

“Anyone who dares to invade will suffer the wrath of the empire. Even if someone can storm to my capital, this Defensive Magical Formation can hold up to a Heaven Mage’s attack!”

“Seriously?”

“And he set it up in a single night?”

“This emperor is crazy…”

“He might actually be a god.”

Many were confused and shocked at hearing the strength of the defensive magical formation, especially the spies sent here from the other nearby empires. It was unfathomable how Lawrend was capable of setting up such a formation.

And of course, the crowd didn’t lack critiques. They didn’t believe that Lawrend was telling the truth. A defensive magical formation that could defend against a Heaven Mage’s attack should not have been that easy to set up.

“It’s up to everyone here to believe my words or not. I don’t have any reason to lie right now. I have the backing of my Ignis Clan behind me,” Lawrend continued.

Lawrend was sure that the Ignis Clan was on his side. They gave him Ember, after all.

“…”

“…”

Many of the critiques were left speechless. Lawrend was right. He didn’t need to lie to them because he had powerful backing already.

“For the next few hours, I will be reading the new edition of the Solar Path Book. This is where my teachings of mine are stored. At the moment, the Will lesson is still not yet added, but it will be done so in the future.”

Lawrend felt like he was hawking books for sale. The Solar Path Book appeared in his hand, and he opened it up. He then started reading them out loud.

…

After a few hours, everyone had heard Lawrend read the whole thing.

This was also Lawrend’s first time seeing the new edition of the book. He was quite satisfied with the changes. It seemed like Humility took his words seriously.

“This is the end.”

Lawrend flicked his finger and the sun above their heads dissipated into a burst of mana. It wasn’t enough to hurt anyone, but even a mortal could feel the wave of mana in the air.

When they looked back to Lawrend, he was already gone.

Lawrend used his space magic once more to disappear into thin air. It was very convenient because it made him seem more mysterious to them.

Lawrend flew inside the Holy Sun Church and arrived at the altar. Humility was sitting on a chair with Truf in front of her while discussing something.

“What are you doing?” Lawrend asked.

“Oh, hello, Master. I’m teaching him what it means to be a believer of the Holy Sun Church,” Humility replied.

“Give him a place to stay in the castle. I will start teaching him every Sunday about magic,” Lawrend said.

“Yes, Master. Come, little Truf. I will bring you to the Imperial Castle with me.”

Humility tried to grab the little boy’s hand.

*Slap*

“Hmph. I’m old enough.”

Truf slapped away Humility’s hand in disgust. He glared back at Lawrend angrily. Seeing Lawrend made his mood turn sour. He couldn’t believe he actually agreed to let his nemesis teach him magic.
