Combat Maid Harem

Lawrend asked Humility in confusion. They were supposed to meet here in front of the Lightning Department, but he was nowhere to be found.

"Why don\'t we ask his classmates?"

Humility suggested to him.

"Alright."

Lawrend nodded his head. He took the lead, and they entered Class B.

There were only so few students left inside, and most of them were chatting with each other.

"Uhm, where is Kenova?"

Humility opened her mouth and asked.

"M-Miss! Kenova left as soon as class ended."

A student answered her in a fluster.

"Thank you."

Humility bowed to him slightly.

"He left, huh? He didn\'t even inform us. I knew it. That guy was up to no good."

Lawrend said out loud in annoyance.

"More importantly, let\'s go have a study session, Lawrend."

Humility urged him.

"Fine, fine."

Lawrend replied.

And so, the two of them rode a carriage together to the Dragon-Phoenix Inn. Lawrend couldn\'t help but notice the fact that it was only the two of them.

A man and a woman, alone together. One couldn\'t help but imagine various erotic possibilities.

They left the carriage and entered the inn together.

"Oh, Mr. Lawrend."

By chance, Nimela saw the two of them entering the inn together.

"M-M-Miss!"

Nimela suddenly panicked when she saw Humility standing beside Lawrend.

Humility made a shushing gesture, and Nimela understood what was going on.

"You know her?"

Lawrend asked in surprise. He didn\'t notice Humility\'s gesture to Nimela.

"Y— I mean, she\'s so beautiful that I\'m flustered."

Nimela answered. She almost gave herself away.

"Now, now. Lawrend, you know her?"

Humility asked him.

"Yes. She\'s the manager of this inn."

Lawrend replied to her with a nod of his head.

"Hmm… Well, whatever. Let\'s go to my room!"

Humility pulled Lawrend\'s hand with her.

"Hey! Wait!"

Lawrend was surprised when she suddenly pulled him. He didn\'t even manage to say goodbye to Nimela.

"Lawrend, come on. Let\'s go inside my room. My gift for you should already be inside."

Humility let go of Lawrend when they reached her room. There was excitement etched on her face.

"Alright, alright. Why do you seem more excited than I am?"

Lawrend said to her in reply.

"That\'s because… It\'s my very first gift to you."

Humility said to him with profound emotions on her face.

"Hm."

Lawrend was surprised. There seems to be more to her than he could fathom on the surface.

Humility opened the door, and Lawrend entered inside. She followed behind him, and when she entered the room, she silently locked the door using magic.

"It\'s here!"

Humility went to the table and picked up a wrapped long object. It was wrapped with brown paper.

"Open it!"

Humility passed the object to Lawrend.

"Okay."

Lawrend took the wrapped object and weighed it in his hand. He then slowly peeled off the brown paper.

"Woah!"

Lawrend was dumbstruck when he saw what was hidden underneath. He had only removed a small part, and he could already see it glowing with a serene purple light.

He continued unwrapping it. Before long, he unraveled a staff silently glowing purple. There were various inscriptions on its long body while there was a glowing purple gem on its tip.

"That\'s the Sovereign Lightning Staff. It\'s one of the kind in the kingdom. It was rumored to be a replica of a staff used by a top expert."

Humility explained the staff to Lawrend.

"This… The name sounds so cool. Where did you get this?"

Lawrend asked her in awe. Just seeing its appearance was jaw-dropping.

"Hehehehe. It\'s my gift to you so that\'s a secret."

Humility giggled in reply.

"Wait, isn\'t this very expensive, then?"

Lawrend asked her in disbelief.

The name, the appearance, and the history of the staff. Those were enough to make it very expensive! He couldn\'t even wrap his head around how expensive it could be.

"Is it?"

Humility tilted her head with a silly smile on her face.

"Hey, hey, hey! Didn\'t I tell you to only get me a simple one?"

Lawrend said to her angrily.

"You don\'t like it?"

Humility asked Lawrend with a heartbroken expression.

"That\'s not what I mean. This is too much as a gift."

Lawrend shook his head.

"Then, what if…"

Humility went forward to Lawrend and tiptoed before kissing him on the lips.

Her lips were soft and moist. She exuded an enticing flowery fragrance.

"!"

Lawrend widened his eyes in shock. This development is too fast for him to wrap his head around.

"How was it?"

Humility asked Lawrend with a sweet smile on her face.

"How was it? We\'re not a couple for you to do that."

Lawrend replied to her in confusion. It had only been 4 days since he met her. He didn\'t expect her to suddenly have feelings for him.

"Then, what do we need to do to become a couple?"

Humility asked Lawrend anxiously.

"... We need to say I love you to each other."

Lawrend said to her.

"I love you!"

Humility immediately said to Lawrend.

"... That\'s not how it works."

Lawrend said to her.

"Why? What\'s wrong? Why can\'t you say that you love me, Lawrend?"

Humility asked Lawrend with dead cold eyes.

"I… Do you really love me?"

Lawrend asked her in doubt.

"I do! I love you! I even kissed you!"

Humility answered vigorously.

"... Do you know who I am?"

Lawrend asked her cautiously.

"Lawrend Horiel, 18, smart, my friend, and I love you."

Humility answered crazily.

"Is that all..? Cause you should know the person well before confessing your love for each other."

Lawrend was still doubtful about it. Sure, he was pretty close to her, but that was it. He didn\'t think it was anything special.

"We can do that later, Lawrend! I just want you to be with me!"

Humility said to Lawrend pleadingly.

"C-Crazy."

Lawrend said out loud.

"Hehe, Hehehe, Hehehehehehe! I\'m not crazy!"

Humility laughed creepily. She stared at Lawrend obsessively.

"Kenova!"

Humility suddenly called out.
