Combat Maid Harem

"He will be furious. Don't worry, Master. Let me explain my situation to him."

Ember was confident with herself.

"We need to find a place to stay at first."

"I will arrange that, Master. My family is very influential in the Phoenix Main Hall," Ember proudly replied.

She brought them to a huge mansion. A butler walked out of the gate and bowed to her. He was also another Ignis, but he served Ember's family.

Lawrend gawked at the heaven-like mansion. The gate was made of gold turned into various artistic figures. Gold might be cheap for them, but the art was amazing.

As Lawrend looked from left to right, he was able to see a battle play out. It was a man defeating a phoenix valiantly and bathing in its blood.

"That is the legend about how our ancestor defeated a phoenix and became a phoenix himself," Ember explained as she noticed him looking at it.

"That's interesting. I can't wait to meet them."

The more Lawrend understood the history of his clan, the more he wanted to know about it.

"Princess, what do you need?" the butler at the side asked.

"I want the whole Juvenile Mansion."

"Understood. I will relay your words to the guards."

The butler bowed and left.

"Master, we can go meet my father now. The others can look around the Phoenix Main Hall. There are a lot of interesting places here. Since my son and nieces and nephews have the phoenix bloodline, you can also visit the True Phoenix Blood Pool. It can boost the bloodline strength by quite a bit for first time users."

"Thank you, Auntiw Ember!" Eina responded.

"Sister Ember, where is that place?" Aezel asked.

"Head through this main street and take a right. There's a strong smell of blood around that area and you can follow the smell. It shouldn't be too hard."

Ember pointed to the main street.

"Fufufu. Time to make my little Veronica stronger," Aezel chuckled.

"Take care, Everyone. I will meet all of you here in an hour," Lawrend said.

Aleshia: "Goodluck, Master!"

Ella: "May you have a fun time with Sister Ember's father, Master."

Elena: "Take care, Master."

Aezel: "Fufu. Show him your skills, Master."

Humility: "Hehe. You have the aura of an emperor, Master. It should be a breeze."

Amene: "Nyaa! Good luck!"

Grape: "Master, I suggest intimidating him at the get-go."

Ramiela: "He's just a human, my God. Don't let him intimidate you."

Nao: "I have sleeping poison here if you want, Master."

Lawrend casually pushed away the bottle Nao tried to give him. He smiled at them as they left.

"Bye, Father!"

His children didn't have much to say as they didn't understand what was going on. The only one who didn't go was Inferno, who was Ember's son.

"Master, I feel nervous. Don't hurt him, okay?" Ember said with pleading eyes.

"Don't worry. I won't," Lawrend replied.

Ember should've been nervous for Lawrend, but instead, she was nervous for her father. She didn't know what he would do if he met Lawrend. If they got off on the wrong foot, it would be bad for him.

The duo flew up and followed behind the butler. They passed through a long stone pathway with red fire roses at the sides. It was a beautiful scenery to fly through.

They landed at the mansion's entrance. The butler pushed a ten-meter-tall heavy door.

The moment Lawrend got a view of the inside, his breath was taken away. He finally understood why Ember was so disdainful of his castle when she first met him.

A bright red chandelier hung at the very center, with two curved staircases leading to the second floor. The artistic design of the chandelier was captivating. For some reason, Lawrend couldn't take his eyes off of it.

"What the hell?"

"Impressive, right?" Ember proudly puffed her chest out.

Lawrend was the emperor of an empire, but his castle wasn't as amazing as this. He couldn't help but lament at that fact. With every mountain, there's always a higher mountain.

Ember pulled him inside. They walked through the long hallway at the center.

"This is the mansion of my family. I have an ancestor that became a Heaven Mage thousands of years ago," Ember explained.

"What?"

Lawrend stared at her, stupefied. This was the first time he was hearing about her Heaven Mage ancestor.

"Hmph. You never asked about my family." Ember cutely acted haughty.

"Everything makes sense now," Lawrend said.

Ember's beauty, talent, and temperament all probably came from her relation to her ancestor, who became a Heaven Mage.

"Hehe." Ember giggled.

She brought Lawrend deeper inside, turned a corner, and entered a room.

"Father, I brought my Master here," Ember said and directly entered the room without knocking.

Lawrend walked inside with the most solemn face he could make.

A middle-aged man stared at the window with his back facing them. He exuded an aura of solitude.

"My daughter…" he started and turned around.

An insanely handsome face greeted Lawrend. That face would make anyone feel inferior. It was someone who shouldn't be walking the human world.

"I'm proud of you. The ancestor was right in betrothing you to Lawrend. I know everything. You don't have to explain," he said and then sat down at a lounge chair.

Lawrend and Ember glanced at each other before sitting down on the couch facing Ember's father.

A deafening silence filled the room. Lawrend, Ember, and her father didn't say anything. Both sides eyed the other party.

After a few minutes, Ember couldn't hold it anymore. She felt awkward since she knew both of them.

"Father, what do you think?" Ember asked in an excited voice.

"...Master? Are you crazy? I know couples can have weird bed kinks, but this is in public, my dear daughter!" Ember's father exclaimed.

"F-Father, introduce yourself first," Ember awkwardly asked.

Her usual haughty attitude was nowhere to be found as she found herself powerless before her blood father.

"I'm none other than Paeia Ignis, the previous Clan Head a thousand years ago, and also a Heavenly Earth Mage!"
