Combat Maid Harem-Chapter 706 Ember Takes A Step Forward

"Hmph. I will take care of him for you, Master!" Ember replied and took a step forward.

Lucid's eyes became filled with fear as he saw her step forward. Ember had always been known as a prideful woman, and she wouldn't let anyone insult her.

He didn't expect that her reaction would be this strong. He knew that she should be a Heavenly Earth Mage already. She should know some propriety and be more humble because the Prince was already at the same strength level as her.

"I will show you my improvements," Ember said. "Phoenix!"

Ember didn't dilly-dally, and her beautiful phoenix wings expanded from her back. She flew forward in the blink of an eye and appeared in front of Lucid's face. f𝚛e𝚎𝘄𝒆𝚋𝚗𝚘ѵ𝑒𝚕.𝑐𝘰𝑚

"No!" Lucid panicked.

He tried to turn into a phoenix, but he was too slow. His phoenix bloodline purity was too low to allow him to do the same. Ember's face was cold, and she appeared in front of Lucid.

"Tri-Phoenix Rise From The Ashes!"

As Ember said the name of the spell, three phoenixes rose up from the ground as a faint image that gradually became clearer until they turned into three phoenixes.

"Fire Escape!"

Lucid used a forbidden spell and forcefully turned his body into a mass of fire and reappeared a small distance away. His body felt weak, and he fell onto one knee.

Ember quickly reversed her spell and dissolved it once she saw that Lucid had escaped. This was still a city. If she let her spell run rampant, it would cause destruction.

Many of the residents here might be Earth Mages, but that didn't mean that they couldn't complain to the clan. She would be in trouble if a lot of them tried to report her.

"You're so much faster!" Lucid exclaimed in disbelief.

The way she turned into a phoenix and cast a spell didn't seem to be humane in his eyes. It was only something an ancestor could do.

"Come with me outside of the city so I can show you my true prowess!" Ember shouted.

She was ready to kill him for her Master. She was already annoyed with this guy since he had been annoying to her in the past. Added to Lawrend's annoyance, she wanted to strangle him to death.

As for Lawrend, he calmly watched the whole show. He didn't retort to Lucid or attack him because there was no point. He would easily win against him.

"Princess! What are you doing trying to attack me?! I'm still the City General!" Lucid shouted in an attempt to bolster his own confidence.

The Ignis Clan had a lot of rules because of its size. He knew that he could use them in this situation since he was at a moral advantage. It was forbidden to fight in the city. Anyone who violated that would face punishment from the clan.

"You just became the City General recently, and you think that you can order me around already?" Ember replied and raised her chin high.

She fully showed her arrogance. She sneakily cast a glance at Lawrend behind her and smiled. She wanted him to see how influential she was.

"I will use the power of the city since you aren't listening to me!"

Lucid started glowing a bright red color as an invisible white flame covered his whole body. Lines of a magical formation appeared under his feet, and they extended outward rapidly until they connected every inch of the city to him.

Lawrend could see the flow of pure fire mana flowing through the magical formation and being pumped into Lucid's body. His curiosity was piqued once again.

This magical formation under the city seemed to be very versatile. It had many uses. It was great research material for Lawrend. He would learn a lot if he was able to dismantle it.

Ember didn't stop Lucid from powering up. The crowd of Earth Mages around her was shocked.

They moved even farther away after realizing that this fight between them was not stopping anytime soon.

"Master, he is a Heavenly Earth Mage now," Ember said.

"Oh?"

Lawrend raised an eyebrow as he watched patiently.

"Ahahaha! Phoenix!"

Lucid's body burned with a bright red flame mixed with a white flame. He extended his phoenix wings from behind him, and his body shape changed to a bird's. Precisely, his body changed to a phoenix!

His transformation was still slower than Ember's, but it was almost at her level.

"Attack me," Ember said calmly.

Similar to Lawrend, she didn't put Lucid in her eyes.

"I will avenge the Prince for your unfilialness, Your Majesty!" Lucid shouted with great sarcasm in his voice.

Ember squinted her eyes a little and focused.

"Swooping Phoenix!"

A faint image of a phoenix appeared behind Lucid. It raised its beak and made a loud cry.

"KAHHH!!"

Lucid extended his wings out and pointed his face at Ember. He then flapped his wings, and the powerful force pushed him forward like a bullet.

"Phoenix's Wing Cocoon!" Ember shouted.

She used her wings to cover her whole body in less than a second.

Lucid reached in front of her, and a massive beak appeared in front of his face.

*BOOM!*

A powerful explosion shook the ground. The city was left intact, but many of those that were weaker than Earth Mages fell to the ground, unconscious. Their bodies couldn't take the power of the spells used.

The flames died down, and Ember reappeared. She was just extending her wings out from her covering position.

Lucid was still fine. He looked a little haggard, but the failure of his spell to penetrate Ember didn't seem to bother him.

"I don't believe I can't win against you with the power of the city's magical formation!"

As the City General, he always believed that no one could stop him in this city unless the elders, the clan head, or the ancestors came knocking on his door. He changed his stance and took out his staff. It glowed a powerful red color, unlike the staves Lawrend had seen before.
