Combat Maid Harem-Chapter 716 Rich
"Here is what I owe you," Lawrend said and stopped beside Ember.
She instinctively formed a small bowl with her hands, and Lawrend poured out Earth Mage Fire Mana Stones into it, which promptly disappeared as they entered her storage ring. Lawrend paid everything he owed her with some interest.
"You didn't have to repay me, Master," Ember said with a bewildered expression on her face.
She didn't expect him to pay her so suddenly. She should be happy, but instead, she felt empty. She wanted to pay for his expenses so getting repaid was something she never expected to happen.
Now that he had repaid her, the satisfaction she felt disappeared like smoke.
"I'm your Master," Lawrend replied and didn't elaborate.
He continued onward without looking back. His maids glanced at each other and giggled. It was rare for them to see Lawrend keeping his pride up so obviously.
Ember wanted to disagree, but she stopped herself. She realized that she wouldn't be able to change his mind. He was a man with a clear goal set for himself. If he wanted to be their rich Master, he would be their rich Master. He wouldn't let her pay for his expenses.
"Father!"
Lawrend's children greeted him with wide smiles on their faces. They saw him give a lesson from afar because of the powerful eyesight they gained.
"Return to your rooms. The commotion is finished," Lawrend said.
…
The next day quickly passed. Lawrend returned to the city square early in the morning. Unlike before, Aezel, Ramiela, and Aleshia tailed behind him silently. Lawrend didn't stop them as this was their job.
"The Teacher is here!" one of the Flawed Earth Mages the previous day shouted in excitement. He immediately sat on his seat and behaved himself. The others followed suit and scrambled like kids in a classroom.
"Teacher? I guess that's not bad."
Lawrend couldn't help but smile. They weren't his disciples, but he still taught them lessons, so it was fine.
He walked up the stage with his three maids trailing behind him. They coldly stared at the people below. Their group made some feel pressured.
"For this lesson, I need 500 Earth Mage Fire Mana Stones," Lawrend said calmly.
"Sure!" Kilin replied enthusiastically.
He smiled like an idiot and walked up to the stage and dropped a small pile of mana stones. He then walked back and sat on his chair like a little kid waiting for their favorite teacher to start.
The others swiftly followed suit even though the price made their hearts bleed. It was a good thing they prepared for this situation as they sold a lot of their treasures.
In total, there were 800 Earth Mages in the seats. Many of them couldn't fit, so they sat right on the ground. As for the weaker mages, they only had a small number as Lawrend's lessons would be too high level for them to take advantage of.
With this equation, Lawrend received 400,000 Earth Mage Fire Mana Stones. The pile became a mountain, so he walked to it and took them inside his storage ring first.
He opened his palm and sent flames to the side of their ears.
"For today's lesson, I will be teaching about the mysteries of fire magic," Lawrend said.
Kilin's smile reached the edges of his eyes as he couldn't contain the happiness and excitement he felt. He was sure that this lesson today would push him higher than he would ever thought possible.
…
The whole day passed by quickly for those listening to Lawrend. They learned so much information that their minds couldn't keep up anymore. The respect they had for Lawrend quickly reached godly status.
He was an enigma and a mystery to them. Once Lawrend left, they wondered where he came from.
He obviously had the Ignis bloodline, but he was unknown to them. It was hard for them to fathom how he grew that much from outside the clan. After all, the clan's fiery environment favored the clan's members.
A lot of them used to have the idea that staying in the clan was the best thing. Meeting Lawrend changed that as their narrow opinions broadened. They might look down on outsiders, but it might be their demise if they didn't try to challenge themselves away from the protection of the clan.
Lawrend didn't know that his lesson would change the clan so much. His only reason for doing so was to earn money. So now that he had made a lot, he didn't feel like doing it again.
"Let's leave tomorrow morning," Lawrend told his maids.
During that night, Lawrend focused on creating his Earth Mage Lightning spell. He was curious how hard it would be in this environment with the very little amount of lightning mana.
O' great Amber, be my electron, turn to sprite, overwhelm and kill my enemies, focus and concentrate, compress and explode, Lightning Pillar! 𝗳r𝗲𝙚w𝐞𝚋𝘯𝚘ѵ𝗲l.𝑐oｍ
That was how his Grand Mage Lightning Spell went. He needed to add another line to turn it into an Earth Mage spell. It might seem easy, but it was hard to find an appropriate one that would satisfy Lawrend's standards.
He wanted his spell to be the best it could be as it would also lay the foundation for the strength of his future spells. He couldn't slack on any part, or he would regret it later.
"Lightning Pillar… What could get better than that?" Lawrend asked himself.
There were only so many forms of lightning that naturally occurred in nature. He might be able to create magnetic effects if he could figure it out, but it wouldn't be that useful for him. He needed a one-strike, one-kill spell. ｆ𝘳e𝒆w𝗲𝐛𝘯𝐨νe𝚕.cｏ𝓶
Sparks, Lightning Bolts, Lightning Sprites, and Lightning Pillars. Lawrend had thought about every form of lightning that could be found in the world.
"What if… I make one from beyond the world?"
Lawrend's heart thumped at the thought. His mind whirred as he tried his best to remember the astronomy of his previous world.
