Combat Maid Harem-Chapter 720 The Phoenix Main Hall
After booking a room, Lawrend left once again with Ember in tow. The duo roamed around the city and entered through the bazaars and shopping districts. Lawrend was able to find rarer materials that he needed, but some of them were impossible to find.
"I'm starting to doubt whether these materials really exists," Lawrend muttered as the duo walked along the street.
The passersby avoided them like a plague. Everyone that recognized them from afar turned around and quickly left. The ones that only recognized them when they were near hurriedly walked to the side of the road.
? As for those that didn't recognize them at all, they froze and followed the crowd. It was fairly obvious that Lawrend and Ember were not people they could trifle with.
Lawrend and Ember didn't care about the attention they received. Ember was used to it, and Lawrend had years of experience being an emperor.
"I also haven't heard of these materials you are looking for, Master," Ember replied.
She looked at the piece of paper with the last remaining materials. Lawrend found these materials inside the library of his empire. It was supposedly a copy of an ancient book that was found torn and tattered. 𝙛r𝚎𝐞𝑤𝚎𝗯𝗻𝗼𝐯e𝚕.𝒄𝐨𝓂
"If we're wrong, I might not be able to create a bow that is as strong as Amene needs. I came up with the list of materials after reading their effects to each other. I still need to test in theory if I'm correct since this is also my first time making a weapon from scratch."
Lawrend was less than 10% sure that his list of materials would work together. Though, he wasn't worried about it since he still gathered a lot of different materials. He would have the chance to experiment once he gathered them all.
It was also a challenge for himself to avoid making too many mistakes. This way, he would be able to unleash more of his potential. Otherwise, he would have to gather the materials once more which would obviously be another pain in the ass.
"I'm sure you will be able to do it, Master. After all… You're going to become a God, right?" Ember said and leaned to his chest.
The two of them stopped in the middle of the road. Everyone stared at them, but the duo didn't seem to notice.
"Hahahaha… Just a Sub-God. I don't dream too high," Lawrend replied awkwardly.
Some cold sweat dripped down his back. If the Goddess misunderstood, she would surely punish him. He was still under her influence, after all.
Only when he was able to break free from the soul contract would he dare utter his honest thought.
"Oh? What is a Sub-God? It doesn't sound as cool as a God."
Ember frowned and lightly ran her fingers down his chest. She grinned and cast a side glance at the people watching them.
It was her plan to show everyone that she was Lawrend's. She didn't want anyone to have any other thoughts about her.
"You will know in the future."
Lawrend smiled mysteriously.
"Hmph. <3"
Ember cutely harrumphed and lightly stomped her feet on the ground.
And just as she expected, the crowd watching them gasped.
"The Princess and the Demon looks so cute together…"
"I don't want to agree, but I agree…"
"Ugh… Why am I single?" f𝘳𝚎𝑒𝚠𝑒𝚋𝘯o𝘃eƖ.co𝓂
The atmosphere around them turned sour as frustration took over the minds of the people. The fear they felt from the two of them lessened to some extent.
After making that show, Ember followed behind Lawrend like an obedient maid.
Lawrend naturally knew what she was trying to do, but he couldn't care less.
…
Night came by and morning quickly came.
"It's time. Let's head to Phoenix Main Hall," Lawrend said.
The group left the city and headed northwest.
Phoenix Main Hall was a mega city that was even bigger than imperial cities. It was the heart of the Ignis clan as trade bustled within. All of the Heaven Mages, the main powerhouses of the clan, resided within the Phoenix Garden at the very center.
The Phoenix Garden's name sounded simple, but it was actually a huge vast expanse that was covered with magical red flowers that suck the pure fire mana from the lava below.
Located along those hills were small houses that contained a powerful member of the clan.
At the entrance of this city, Lawrend's group just passed through the check.
Lawrend looked around the city. It had an ancient and powerful feeling to it. Each building here seemed to exude some strange magical power as all of them were connected to a single magical formation.
"...Amazing…"
Lawrend was speechless at the intricate magical formations in the Phoenix Main Hall. It was beyond even what he learned from the crystal ball the Runic Heaven Mage gave him.
"You didn't tell me the Ignis Clan specialized in magical formations," Lawrend said to Ember beside him.
"We aren't that good compared to the experts from the Runic State. They helped improve a lot of these. If it weren't for them, many of these formations would not be able to contribute any strength in an invasion."
Ember faintly smiled as she looked at the magical formations around them.
"I remember you talked about them visiting before."
"Yes. If you want to learn more Master, they left some books at the Rebirth Library."
"Alright. Let's visit there later."
"Hehehe. For now, I want to introduce you to my father," Ember said with a blush on her face.
She avoided his gaze and looked away. Her current cute appearance filled Lawrend's heart with sugar. He had the urge to come over to her and embrace her.
But he was in front of his children and other maids so he couldn't act so childish.
"Really? I'm eager to meet him. I want to know who was able to raise a woman like you," Lawrend replied.
Ember was very beautiful and her desire to improve was similar to Lawrend's. He was curious who was behind all of those.
