Combat Maid Harem

The next day, Lawrend opened his eyes to a pair of purple eyes.

"Master, wake up," Elena said.

"E-Elena? What are you doing?" Lawrend asked her in astonishment.

"It's time, Master. Let's study magic together."

"Already? I just woke up," Lawrend replied as he sat upon the bed.

"You don't have to worry about that, Master. Your food is already here. I asked them to give me the chance to feed you today since we're gonna spend the day together," Elena replied with a smug smile on her face.

"Oh, wow. Thank you. Where are the others?" Lawrend asked as Elena picked up a tray of food on the table beside the bed. She placed it on the bed beside him.

There was a plate of sunny-side-up eggs with a steak on the side. The two dishes looked very appetizing, especially the steak. It had a delicious and aromatic barbeque sauce on it.

"You woke up late, Master. Everyone has already left except for Sister Aezel, Sister Amene, and Sister Grape," Elena replied.

After hearing her words, Lawrend turned his head and looked outside. The sun was already almost at noon. It wasn't the morning that he expected.

"Alright. I'll eat for now," Lawrend said.

Elena's eyes lit up after hearing that. She immediately picked up the plate and a spoon.

"Master, open your mouth," Elena said eagerly.

Lawrend did as she said and opened his mouth. She then put a spoonful of delicious egg inside his mouth.

Before long, he finished everything, but a question popped up inside his mind.

'Where did Humility add her squirt water?'

Lawrend scanned the plate and the only logical thing she put it in was in the barbeque sauce.

"I'm developing a taste for it…" Lawrend muttered with a wry smile on his face.

Never in his dreams did he imagine that he would enjoy the taste of a woman's squirt. He even eats it every day.

"What do you mean, Master?" Elena asked in confusion.

"Nothing. I just thought of something weird," Lawrend replied.

"Okay~"

Elena continued feeding him until he finished his food.

"Here's a glass of spring water, Master. I'll help you drink it," Elena said as she carried a glass of cold water towards Lawrend's mouth.

"No need. I'm not a baby," Lawrend replied while he stopped her with his hand.

It was a good feeling to be fed, but to even be helped just to drink water… He felt like a hospital patient. It didn't feel satisfying at all!

Elena's face turned sad, and she passed the glass to him. As a woman, feeding someone they love gives them bliss. It was a maternal instinct that was deeply engraved in their very being.

"Master, do you want to take a bath first? After all, you were outside for so long last night. Sister Aezel even found a grasshopper crawling all over her when she woke up."

"What?" Lawrend responded in shock.

Hearing that, he felt embarrassed. He should have at least changed his clothes last night. It slipped his mind as he was focused on what just happened to his lightning magic.

"Mm. Sister Aezel said that it was cute of you," Elena replied.

"Cute!? What the..?" Lawrend stared at her in disbelief. That was the opposite of cute in his opinion.

"That's how much she loves you, Master. Even I thought the same, hehe," Elena replied.

"Ehem. Anyways, let's start studying lightning magic," Lawrend said with a fake cough. It would be awkward to continue dwelling on that topic.

"What do you want to learn, Master?" Elena asked.

"How do I change the pathways of my lightning mana inside my body?"

"Pathways? What is that?" Elena asked in confusion.

"You know, the pathways lightning mana take as they circulate throughout the body," Lawrend explained.

"Huh?"

"..?"

The two of them stared at each other, confused.

"I don't have that, Master. Maybe it's only you?" Elena replied.

"That's impossible. I think it's because you are a lightning slime." Lawrend shook his head.

"Really? I never heard our instructors talk about it before."

"...Let's go ask Aezel," Lawrend said with a frown.

"Okay. I'll call Sister Aezel, Master. Please wait here," Elena said before she turned around and left the room.

"Is that the gift the goddess gave me if I'm really the only one that has it..?" Lawrend asked himself in thought.

"Master, you called for me?" Aezel said as she entered the room.

"Does your lightning mana take a pathway inside your body?" Lawrend asked her.

"It does, why, Master?" Aezel looked at him in confusion. It was like it was an obvious thing.

"Ah, nothing. I just became curious about it. You can go back now," Lawrend replied.

"Yes..?"

Aezel left the room reluctantly. She still wanted to know what it was all about but his orders were absolute.

"See, it's because you're a slime," Lawrend replied.

"As expected of Master. You got it right," Elena said as she looked at him with admiration.

"Okay. Back to what I was saying, how do you even circulate lightning mana throughout your body?"

"Do I have to?" Elena asked instead of replying.

"Huh? You have to. Otherwise, your mana won't reach all the parts of your body," Lawrend replied, confused by her response.

"Really? I don't do that, but my mana flows all over my body where I want it to."

Lawrend gawked at her. She had it so easy while he can't even do it. There's really a fundamental difference between the two of them.

A slime is created rarely through an accumulation of mana in an area. That means that Elena's body had perfect compatibility with lightning element mana.

"Alright. Let's forget about that for now. I'll ask you something else," Lawrend said as he gave up.

Since her body was different from his, it would be bad to learn what she knew about that subject.

"Go on, Master.. I'll answer it this time!" Elena replied enthusiastically.
