Combat Maid Harem

Lawrend and Elena finished bathing together. They both exited the bathroom smelling like soap.

"Elena, call Aleshia back."

Lawrend said to her.

"Yes, Master."

Elena nodded her head and left the room.

"Fufufu. Was it enjoyable, Master?"

Aezel asked Lawrend with a laugh.

"Mm. It was. I feel so tired, though."

Lawrend nodded his head and sighed. Even though it felt good, it was tiring in the end.

"Do you want me to massage your shoulders?"

She asked.

"Sure."

Lawrend sat on his bed, and Aleshia sat behind him. She grabbed his shoulders and started pinching and massaging them.

"How is it?"

Aezel asked with a smile.

"It's making me more sleepy…"

Lawrend replied sleepily.

In the end, he fell asleep.

…

Lawrend woke up in the morning. He ate breakfast and went to the academy.

He entered the classroom, and Humility immediately called out to him.

"Lawrend, good morning!"

She called out. There was a happy smile on her face.

"Good morning."

Lawrend replied to her with a smile. Though, he couldn't help but remember what happened to them yesterday.

"Lawrend, I already ordered your gift! It will arrive at my room later."

Humility said to him excitedly.

"Oh, really?"

Lawrend looked at her in surprise. Hearing her words, he became excited about it.

"Yes! I can't wait to show it to you later."

Humility nodded her head.

"I can't wait to see it too."

Lawrend smiled at her.

They chatted some nonsense before June arrived in the classroom.

"Lawrend, meet your team captain after class."

June said to him.

"I got it, Mr. White."

Lawrend stood up and nodded his head.

"Sit down."

June said to Lawrend before he started class.

Lawrend couldn't help but notice Humility's sudden improvement. She became even more serious in class. She was able to answer June's questions on her own now.

Frankly, Lawrend was surprised by her change. It had only been two study sessions, yet she was already this different. He must have really inspired her.

They finished the class with June impressed with Humility's performance today.

"Mr. White, where do I meet the team captain?"

Lawrend asked June just as he was about to leave the room.

"Oh, follow me. He's at the Faculty Office."

June said to Lawrend, and he led the way.

"Lawrend, I'll be waiting, okay?"

Humility shouted to Lawrend from the classroom.

"I'll be back fast."

Lawrend replied to her.

"Hohoho, you sure are close to that girl."

June laughed seeing their interaction together.

"Yes. She's quite lovely."

Lawrend nodded his head.

"Hmm…"

June stared at Lawrend meaningfully before he shook his head and turned around. He then led Lawrend to the faculty room.

It was already sunset and the sky had turned orange when Lawrend and June arrived before the faculty room.

"Be quiet, okay? Some instructors are working, and they need peace and quiet."

June warned Lawrend before they entered the faculty room.

"Yes."

Lawrend nodded his head.

"This is the faculty room."

June opened the door.

Lawrend looked around the room. There were cubicles, and the instructors were cooped up inside them. Some of them were drawing complex diagrams, while some are chatting with each other quietly.

June led Lawrend to a corner. There were 2 other students there.

"That's your team. He's your team captain."

June said to Lawrend as he pointed to the stern-looking young man standing in front of what seems to be an instructor of the academy.

"I got it."

Lawrend replied.

"I'll leave now."

June bid his farewell and left.

"Oh, are you Lawrend?"

The instructor quickly recognized Lawrend.

"Yes, sir."

Lawrend nodded his head respectfully.

"Good. You are the only one we were waiting for. So, start explaining, Logan."

The instructor nodded his head in satisfaction. He gave a kind and amiable vibe.

"My name is Logan Herul. You can call me Logan. Next, introduce yourself."

Logan introduced himself before urging Lawrend.

He wore a golden-brown cloak. He had a shaved face, and he looked like a serious man. He also had black hair and a thin body.

"I'm Lawrend Horiel. Just call me Lawrend."

Lawrend introduced himself.

"Next, you."

Logan pointed to the other student.

"I'm Nuon Freska. You can call me Nu or Nuon. Whichever you prefer."

Nuon introduced himself with a smile.

His height was average, and he wore a white cloak. He also had blonde hair.

"Now, I'll start explaining our special mission."

Logan nodded his head in satisfaction and opened his mouth.

"We are gonna travel northwest, barely tracing around the outskirts of the Undrasil Monster Forest. This would be a dangerous mission which is why I want to ask the both of you if you are ready to die."

Logan turned his head to Lawrend and Nuon solemnly.

"..."

Lawrend and Nuon silently stared at each other. They were attending a special mission to move up. They didn't sign up to die.

"If the two of you aren't ready to die, then don't come!"

Logan rebuked them angrily.

"Relax, Logan. Just tell them that they should prepare for their death just in case. No need to be so strict."

The instructor calmed Logan down.

"...Fine."

Logan nodded his head reluctantly.

"Prepare yourselves for death. Write your wills or something."

Logan said to Lawrend and Nuon strictly.

"Okay?"

Lawrend nodded his head a little bit confused.

Nuon also had the same expression on his face.

"After we skirt around the Undrasil Monster Forest, we should arrive at the Yttervia Forest. Demihumans live there, so we should exercise caution. I want the two of you to strictly follow my orders."

Logan continued his explanation. He then eyed the two of them stringently after he ended his words.

"We got it."

Lawrend nodded his head solemnly. This special mission would become challenging with this kind of strict team captain. His movements would be very limited.

"We're leaving tomorrow in the morning. That's all."

Logan said to them.

Thus, Lawrend's meeting with his team captain ended.

He returned to the Lightning Department drearily.
