Combat Maid Harem

Chapter 674 Lawrend's Fire Spells

Seeing how pathetic it was, Lawrend shook his head at himself. He waited for the boos from the crowd.

But contrary to his expectations the crowd didn't boo him or look down at him. Instead, they had hungry eyes. Those eyes were eager to see him use his next spells.

"The next one is useful for close combat since I'm a Mage," Lawrend said.

He took a stance and chanted his spell, "O' Ifrit, give my hands warmth in this winter, give me the power to fight my foes, Flaming Punch!"

He threw a punch forward with his fist glowing red.

*Pah!*

A loud pop resounded as Lawrend broke the sound barrier with his punch and a huge flame shot up to the sky. His fist then slowly turned back to normal.

"Interesting…"

Many fire mages who were watching became inspired after seeing Lawrend's usage of his spell. Rarely were there any mages that had spells that applied magic on their body because it was more cost-effective and safer to attack from a distance.

"Most of my fire spells are for close combat. They are useful when my enemy least expects it since I'm a mage," Lawrend said.

He flew down to the ground below him. Fortunately, he didn't destroy this part with his Lightning Pillar spell.

Lawrend touched the tree beside him. That tree could only blame its misfortune for being picked by Lawrend.

"O' Ifrit, give my hands warmth in this winter, give me the power to fight my foes, light them on fire, Touch of Fire!"

The tree immediately went up in flames as fire mana wrapped around it and turned it into a huge torch.

"The spell might not seem impressive, but this spell of mine is an Arch Mage spell that's as strong as a Grand Mage spell. I just didn't have a good way to show everyone how it worked," Lawrend explained.

"No, no, no! You didn't need to explain, Your Imperial Highness! We could sense the powerful fire mana you used," a Fire Earth Mage from the Trunden Empire responded back and profusely shook his head.

He didn't want to accept it if Lawrend told them that his spell looked weak. It was very strong in his opinion.

"Thank you. Then do you have something that can display the power of my next spell? I used it once to turn someone to ashes. I doubt a tree could explain its horror," Lawrend asked the Fire Earth Mage.

"A-Ah… Wait! I have this relic we found on our expedition! I tried to melt it or break it but nothing seemed to work on it," the Fire Earth Mage replied.

"Give me." Lawrend opened his palm.

The Fire Earth Mage didn't hesitate and threw him an oddly shaped shiny object. Lawrend caught it and examined it.

"This is a weird material," Lawrend said.

He stared at it intently with his elemental eyes. He could see lines and etches that suggested this thing was a part of a magic formation. He was shocked at how strong it was according to the Fire Earth Mage's words.

"Thank you for this. Take this."

Lawrend threw a spell scroll to the Fire Earth Mage. It was the same spell he gave to his children that could use Fire Magic. That spell could transform into anything as long as the user could imagine it.

Of course, it still required work and effort. It wasn't a cheat item.

"What's this?" the Fire Earth Mage immediately opened it.

He was disappointed to see that it was just a Beginner Mage spell. He opened his mouth before quickly closing it. He thought that Lawrend just gave him the spell to show the crowd that he knew how to show gratitude.

If he opened his mouth and complained now, he was 99.99% sure that Lawrend would kill him.

"It's not as weak as you think it is. Use it as a foundation for your future spells. Just like what I did," Lawrend replied and smiled mysteriously.

That smile made the Fire Earth Mage doubt himself if he thought wrong. He took another look at the fire spell and closed the scroll.

"I don't understand what you mean, but thank you. I will cherish this spell with my own life." He fully bowed, with his body bent into an elbow shape.

Lawrend nodded his head and focused back on the thing in his hand.

From what he surmised, this relic could fully show the potential of his next spell.

"Everyone, watch closely."

Those who couldn't see because of the distance cursed the air for their weakness. They missed a great opportunity. As for Lawrend's children, he beckoned them to come closer.

He understood his spells enough to know that they won't suddenly erupt and hurt them.

Even though they came nearer, the others watching didn't dare to come any closer. They only needed to give that huge abyss-like hole a glance to get that thought out of their heads.

Lawrend held the relic firmly in his hand and he lifted it up for all to see.

"O' Ifrit, give my hands warmth in this winter, give me the power to fight my foes, light them on fire, burn them to ashes, Fire Disintegration!"

Once the chant was done, the relic glowed a bright red. A strong surge of phoenix mana left Lawrend's body and injected themselves into the relic. The faint magic formation lines on it glowed brightly before turning dark.

These dark spots quickly turned bright red and the relic melted and dropped onto the ground. They continued going deeper because of the powerful heat as it melted the soil and pushed the liquid under it to go deeper.

"..."

The one most affected by this performance was the Fire Earth Mage. He had seen Lawrend use his Supernova spell and was even one of the Earth Mages that dealt the final blow to the Blumin Emperor.

He opened his mouth in shock but no words came out. He was terrified of the man in the center.
