Combat Maid Harem
Chapter 212 - Feelings Between The Harem

"Ehehehe… I thought you were supposed to separate them?" Humility said awkwardly.

"Who taught you how to cook?" Lawrend asked.

"The Head Chef in my mansion," she replied.

"Uhh… I think you followed the wrong recipe then. There's no way a Head Chef would teach you wrong."

Lawrend couldn't imagine that a Head Chef for a princess would make such a basic mistake. It should be Humility's fault. She must have used a recipe for another dish. Like a cake, for example.

"That's true… But is it good?"

Humility stared at Lawrend with excitement.

"It is good. It just tastes kind of bland because there are no egg yolks."

"Yey! Master says it's good!"

Humility raised her arms happily in joy. She was glad that Lawrend was able to appreciate her dish.

"Congrats, Humility." Aleshia congratulated her.

"Well done, Sister Humility." Elena also congratulated her.

"Fufufufu. It's an achievement to impress the Master with your cooking." Aezel added.

"Yes, Big Sister Humility. Master seems pleased," Ella said.

As for Amene and Grape, they could only clap their hands. After all, they weren't familiar with Humility yet.

"Thank you, everyone! I will work even harder to impress Master! I won't forget the egg yolks next time," Humility said with excitement overflowing on her face.

"I want to taste it with egg yolks next time, Humility."

"I promise, Master!" Humility nodded her head solemnly.

"How about this sausage? Did you make it?"

Lawrend looked at the sausage on his plate. It looked like a normal brown sausage.

"Yes, Master. The Head Chef taught me how to make it. He then guided me to create my own unique recipe. There are even some secret recipes that only I know. Hehehehe."

"Oh! That makes me interested," Lawrend said.

He sliced a small piece of the sausage and put it in his mouth.

"How is it?"

Humility stared at the munching Lawrend intently.

"It tastes… Sweet and there is a kick of spice in it," Lawrend muttered.

"Hehehehe," Humility giggled hearing his words.

"I think it's delicious," Lawrend said.

"Yes! Thank you for the praise, Master!"

Humility walked up to Lawrend before embracing him from the side.

"Humility…"

Lawrend felt touched. She was a princess. The last time he met her, she was always buying food in a restaurant. Now, she could already cook for him.

"Can you kiss me on the cheek, Master? I want it as my reward."

*Smooch*

Lawrend gave her smooth cheek a soft peck.

Humility's body went red, and she immediately stood up and held the place Lawrend just kissed.

Lawrend smiled seeing her reaction. She was such a cute princess. No matter what, he will not let her go.

"Ella, how was the academy last night?" Lawrend turned his head to her and asked.

"Y-Young Master! I-I… It was okay!" Ella replied in a fluster.

She didn't expect Lawrend to suddenly speak to her.

"Good. Can you come here? I want to hug you."

Hearing his words, Ella's eyes lit up.

"Mm!" Ella nodded her head and stood up.

She walked across the table and beside Lawrend.

Lawrend pulled her into his embrace and rubbed her head.

"You study so hard Ella… Make sure to take care of your health," he said gently.

"Young Master…"

Ella felt touched. She felt rewarded all of the sudden.

"Yes, Ella. You should take care of yourself," Aleshia said as she joined them and hugged Ella in between her and Lawrend.

"Awww… Master is so perfect," Aezel murmured as she stared at the heartwarming scene.

A few minutes later, Lawrend let go of Ella. She had a rosy and bright expression on her face. It was like she was recharged with energy.

"Alright. Let's go to the academy, okay?" Lawrend said as he stood up.

"Yes, Master!" They all responded.

…

Lawrend walked inside the academy once again. So many things happened in his journey. Yet there were only so few that changed in the academy.

It had only been a week, yes, but Lawrend felt it had been forever since he was here.

Lawrend was followed by Aezel as usual. Though, he doesn't think that he needed it anymore. He was already a strong High Mage. Her protection isn't that much needed anymore.

"Aezel, how was your stomach?" Lawrend asked as they walked.

"Master, it's still quite small. After all, it had only been more than a month since I conceived," she replied.

"I see. I still don't have clues on how to solve our problem, but I assure you that I will soon. Please don't worry," Lawrend said.

"Yes, Master… To be honest, the more I spend with you. The more I'm unwilling to kill you for the baby…"

Lawrend stopped after hearing that. He turned around and stared at her.

"It may sound weird to come from me, but I think we can abort the baby… We can make another one next time," Aezel said to Lawrend as she bit her lips.

"Aezel…" Lawrend was shocked hearing her words.

He never expected this to come from her own mouth. After all, she was so adamant and protective of the baby last time.

"W-Was it wrong? Should I not have said that?" Aezel had a confused look on her face.

"No, Aezel. I understand your feelings. But as long as it's not decided yet, I will never give up on the baby. When it comes to it… You can kill me," Lawrend said to her seriously.

"Master… I really love you…" Aezel slowly walked towards Lawrend and embraced him.

"Aezel… We will replace a way to solve this, okay?"

Lawrend cupped her cheeks with his hand.

"We will." She nodded her head.

"Okay. Let's go to my classroom," Lawrend said before turning around and continued walking.

The two walked towards the Lightning Department. Along the way, Aezel stared at Lawrend's carefree back in a daze. She felt even more determined to protect him.. She had the urge inside her to get pregnant a second time with his baby.
