Combat Maid Harem

"Human, why did she suddenly become so powerful?" Clova Whitebird suddenly asked as she stared at Aezel.

"Oh? You noticed it?" Lawrend raised an eyebrow at her words.

"I'm a Guardian Beast which means I'm particularly sensitive to sensing the danger coming from other beings," Clova explained.

"That makes sense. She recently advanced in strength, and she's now much stronger than you," Lawrend said the latter part with a smirk on his face.

"You… Does that mean you do not need me anymore?" Clova asked.

"No, no, no. That's not the case. I still need you to fly around," Lawrend replied.

"I see. If there is ever a day you don't need me anymore, can you let me go? As a White Roc, I love freedom," Clova replied.

"Hmmm… Alright."

Lawrend nodded his head at her.

"Very well then. Ride on my back. There is plenty of space for everybody," Clova said.

Starting from Lawrend, they each rode behind Clova one by one, and not long after, they were all riding on her back.

"I-I'm nervous-nyannn!" Amene said as she shivered on the back of Clova.

"You can do it, Sister Amene," Grape said behind her as she rubbed her back to ease her nerves.

"Sister Amene, don't worry. If you fall, Master will catch you. Hehehe," Elena said with a chuckle.

"Master will catch me… Master will catch me… Master will catch me…" Amene repeatedly muttered to herself.

She felt her nerves slowly ease, and she was able to stop herself from shaking, so she was able to sit on Clova's back comfortably.

"Are you okay now, Amene?" Lawrend asked.

"Yes, Master. I trust you," Amene replied.

"Okay. Clova, let's go. Head towards the east," Lawrend said after making sure that Amene was comfortable.

*Fwooosh* *Fwooosh*

Clova flew up into the sky with Lawrend, Aezel, Aleshia, Ella, Elena, Humility, Amene, Grape, and Ramiela on her back.

Her giant white wings encompassed a large part of the sky as she flew off to the east. She cast a dark shadow down at the lands below her, and before they knew it, the capital was left behind them.

An hour of flying later, they exited the region of the Undrasil Monster Forest. The trees under them became small and normal compared to the giant towering trees of the Undrasil Monster Forest.

That's right. This was the Great Berthan Forest. Lawrend and Olgar's group flew above this forest when they were headed to the capital three weeks ago.

"Wow! The forest here looks lush and green, Master," Amene said as she watched the beautiful and relaxing green scenery below them.

"Fufufufu. Look over there. That tree was where Master became a True Mage. I helped him that time," Aezel said with her finger pointed to a semi-large tree in the forest.

"Ohhhh!" x7

Everyone's eyes lit up in curiosity except for Ramiela.

"Was that the time you kidnapped Master?" Aleshia asked Aezel.

"Fufufufufu. Yes, and it was a fond memory of mine. Master would not be able to keep his eyes away from my chest," Aezel replied with a smile on her face.

"Hmmmm…" Aleshia hummed as she oozed a frightening aura around her body.

At that time, she was supposed to be the only woman in his heart. She didn't expect that he was that frivolous. Although she had anticipated that he would find other women besides hers, it still left a stinging feeling in her heart.

"Ahahahaha…" Lawrend laughed dryly.

"Well, that's already in the past. We're now your maids, Master," Aleshia cooly replied.

"Thank you, Aleshia," Lawrend replied.

Humility and the others were all looking at Lawrend, Aleshia, and Aezel with curious expressions on their faces. As they all love their Master, they were all interested in his past, especially since it was also about Aleshia.

For them, Aleshia was the pseudo leader. She was the first maid, and Lawrend trusts her very much as she had been with him for a lot longer than them.

They continued flying for several more hours, and then their destination finally appeared from view.

It was the largest lake in the Lanshia Province.

It wasn't mentioned before, but the Undrasil Kingdom was split into three provinces. These were the Lanshia Province to the east, the Treeshia Province in the southeast, and the Cypol Province in the west.

They were all big regions that contained several major cities inside them.

The sun was perfectly reflected in the clear waters of the lake. Lawrend's group could see several monsters drinking water on its shores.

"So you were talking about Hernan Lake. I take a bath here every month," Clova said.

"Yeah. It would get messy, though. Aezel would be testing out her strength," Lawrend replied.

"I understand. Do be careful. Don't destroy the lake as the nearest lake is very far from my home," Clova said.

"You heard that, Aezel? Don't go too crazy. Just test your Royal Demon strength," Lawrend said as he looked at Aezel.

"Yes, Master. I won't do it," Aezel replied and obediently nodded her head.

Clova Whitebird's huge figure scared the monsters on the shore of the lake as she slowly descended.

*Swooosh*

Suddenly, a large green vine shot up from the ground.

Clova calmly swung her sharp talons and sliced the vines cleanly before landing on the ground with a thud.

"That's the second time I saw those vines attacking," Lawrend commented.

"They do not catch land monsters. They like to prey on flying monsters like me," Clova explained.

"So that's why," Lawrend nodded his head in understanding.

One by one, they hopped down from Clova's soft and fluffy back.

"You did it, Sister Amene," Grape said to her with a smile.

"Nyaaa! I conquered my fear thanks to master," Amene shouted with her arms raised high in excitement.

"Good job, Amene."

Lawrend placed his hand on her head and rubbed it.

"Nyaa~"

Amene's face melted as she enjoyed his head pat.

"Aezel, we'll watch from here.. Go do it in the center of the lake," Lawrend turned his head to her and said.
