Combat Maid Harem-Chapter 768 [Bonus] The Power Of Divine Magic

It was a strange occurrence. Lawrend didn't know what was happening to his soul. It might be a bad thing, or it could be a good thing.

Nevertheless, Lawrend continued mulling over his new abilities. He familiarized himself with the new Divine Corrupting Fire he had made. In the future, it would be one of his strongest spells.

A week passed in the blink of an eye.

The group walked out of their house(Grevan's). Grevan stood by the door while holding back herself from crying. She couldn't force him to stay. She would have if she was strong enough.

Unfortunately for her, Lawrend was much stronger than she had expected. He was an Earth Demon. She had learned that throughout the past week.

"If someone comes to ask about us, feign ignorance," Lawrend said.

"Yes. Yes, I will…" Grevan nodded her head.

Lawrend was satisfied with her. He flew up, and his maids and children followed behind him. They soared through the skies heading southwest. Their destination was the desert.

Lawrend had wanted to try using his magic for so long now. He didn't dare to try it so close to civilization. He had already alarmed a lot of demons when he made his Divine Fire and Desolate Darkness magics.

It was also the reason why Lawrend left after a week. He was expecting someone to arrive and question him. Oddly enough, there was no one.

Lawrend was suspicious about it. It didn't make sense for no one to ask why there was a sudden movement to the fire and darkness manas in the environment.

A lot of weird things have been happening lately. Lawrend was confused about what was happening.

They traveled for a whole day and arrived before a gigantic desert region with mountain dunes that reached below the horizon. Who knew how gigantic this place was?

"The sand is red…"

Lawrend landed and picked up a handful of them. He let the small grains slide past his fingers. He flew up and saw no signs of civilization anywhere.

"Careful, Master. I've heard about this place even though we might be far from my home," Aezel warned him solemnly.

"Why?"

"There are massive sandworms in the desert. Legend had it that this place used to be a battlefield, and the blood of the powerful experts drowned the soil and fed the worms until they became absurdly big," Aezel explained as she carefully looked around.

"Is that real?" Eina asked and hugged Elena's legs.

"Huh…"

Lawrend became interested in this place after hearing about the legend. He didn't expect that they would stumble into the place where the battle was fought back then. The redness of the sand must have come from the blood of those that fell here.

"Let's go further in," Lawrend said.

They flew further for a few hours and arrived at the center point of the desert. From this point on, they were farther from all of the demon civilization. Lawrend could use all of his magic here without worrying about attracting the attention of a Heaven Demon. f𝙧𝒆𝚎𝑤e𝚋𝓷o𝘷𝗲l.c𝐨m

Still, he was worried that someone was stalking them. It was really suspicious. He might be overthinking it, but it was still better to be safe than sorry.

"Show yourself. I know that you've been following us!" Lawrend shouted.

He looked behind them. His maids and his children grew serious. They looked around them and waited for someone to show up.

"Stop hiding. I know where you are."

Lawrend closed his eyes. He sensed the flow of mana in the environment and avoided giving it away that he was just bluffing. If he tried to look around with his elemental eyes, it would be very obvious that he didn't know where they were.

"..."

"..."

Silence. No one answered.

Lawrend waited for a couple more minutes before finally relaxing.

"Phew. No one is tailing us. Stand farther back. I will go test my new spells," Lawrend said and waved them to go further away from him.

They were still confused about what was going on, but they still followed his words and stood farther back. Lawrend floated still and closed his eyes.

He lifted his right hand, and the Divine Corrupting Fire appeared.

Veronica stared in shock. His was entirely different than the one she had. She couldn't help but feel envious. She wanted one too.

"Come out!"

Lawrend stomped on the air, and a shockwave shot down from the soles of his shoes and shook the desert underneath him. This caused some of the dunes to collapse.

The ground started visibly shaking like someone was vibrating the whole land.

*Fwoosh!*

A giant shadow shot out of the red sand. A giant and colossal sandworm with sharp circular rows of teeth that numbered in the hundreds of thousands appeared. It headed for Lawrend.

"Grand Mage-level, huh?"

Lawrend was amused.

He threw the ball of Divine Corrupting Fire to it. The black and violet tendrils of the flame spread like a molotov cocktail. They seemed into the body of the midair sandworm.

Lawrend didn't move in the air.

The Divine Corrupting Fire quickly spread, and black tendrils grew on the sandworm's skin in an instant. It got closer and closer to Lawrend, and finally, it hit him.

But instead of swallowing him, the sandworm collapsed into brittle ashes that fell to the ground. Lawrend swung his hand, and the remaining Divine Corrupting Fire returned to his hand.

Lawrend faintly smiled. The result was as satisfying as he had expected.

Veronica's jaw was wide open in disbelief. That might be a Grand Mage sandworm, but it was still unbelievable that it turned into ashes just by getting hit by the Divine Corrupting Fire.

At least Veronica was sure that hers wouldn't be able to do that.

"Now, it's time for me to become a Heaven Mage! AHAHAHAHAHA!!" Lawrend laughed maniacally.

He had confirmed the strength of the Divine Corrupting Fire. It was now time for him to change all of his magic to Divine Magics.
