Combat Maid Harem
Chapter 269 - How Does Magic Work?

"I know it's hard, Master, but it's very helpful. The academy will give you access to its extensive library of research papers. That would help you understand magic more easily," Elena said as she saw the face he was making.

"I see. I'll make one when I become a Fourth-Year," Lawrend replied with a sigh.

At least, it was not pointless. It would be worth it to read through the researches of the mages that can graduate from Undrasil Mage Academy.

"I'm sure it will be easy for Master, hehe," Elena said with a giggle.

"Is there anything else that I need to take note of?" Lawrend asked.

"None, Master. What about my magic? You don't want to ask anything?" Elena asked.

"Uhhh… What about my Divine Lightning? Do you have any idea why it's like that?"

"It's very tasty!" Elena replied excitedly. Just hearing about it made her salivate.

"..."

Lawrend couldn't guess if she was joking or not.

"Just kidding. It feels like I can evolve into a Divine Lightning Slime, Master. I just need to eat more of your semen," Elena replied with a sly grin on her face.

"What, really? You can even evolve?" Lawrend was surprised.

It was one thing for Elena to evolve into a human form, it was even more so that she could evolve once more. This Divine Lightning was really magical. Not only Aezel could evolve but Elena too.

"Yes! That's why… if Master wants it… we can do it anytime you want," Elena said as she slowly licked her soft lips.

"Not now, Elena. Maybe, next week. I will take the tests soon so I can become a Fourth-Year already," Lawrend replied calmly.

It would only hold him back if he always did it with them. He also had to practice abstinence once in a while. As long as they were there, he can do it with them anytime he wanted to.

"Okay~ If you don't have any more questions, I will go now, Master."

"I have none," Lawrend answered.

"See you, Master. I will go eat grass outside," Elena said as she bid him farewell.

Lawrend raised his hand and waved at her lightly. Elena walked towards the door and exited the room.

"Magic, magic… It's so interesting. One day, I will master you," Lawrend muttered out loud.

…

Lawrend spent the whole day thinking about magic. There were a lot of things that he wanted to know about it, but he was still too weak to try them out. The only way he can learn more was if he can learn from someone much stronger than him like the Purple Thunder Grand Mage.

His next goal was to become the Purple Thunder Grand Mage's disciple. The problem was that he would launch a coup. It would be hard for him to predict what sort of action the Purple Thunder Grand Mage would take.

He also doesn't know if there were any other Grand Mages in the other elements. So far, he hadn't heard of any.

"Master, what were you asking about earlier?" Aezel asked as she was cleaning the room. She swept a broom left and right.

Meanwhile, Lawrend was resting his back on the headboard of the bed in thought.

"Elena said that her mana doesn't take any pathway inside her body so we wanted to double-check with you as she thought that I was the weird one," Lawrend replied.

"Fufufu. Elena is a slime, right, Master?"

"Yes, I know it's weird. I can't even believe it myself so you're not alone," Lawrend replied with a smile on his face.

"That's not what I meant, what would happen to your children if a slime and a human create one?" Aezel asked with a calm smile on her face.

"I know. I think it will be fine, but it's my future children, after all, so I can't be too sure," Lawrend replied.

"Fufufu. As expected of Master, you worry about your children already," Aezel said with a laugh.

"That's natural. Anyways, how is your pregnancy? Any news?" Lawrend asked as he looked at her stomach.

It should be almost a month since she got pregnant. There should be some changes by now.

"It's getting there, Master. You don't have to worry. I'm exercising caution with what I eat," Aezel replied.

"That's good. I'm still too young to be a father. It's making me nervous," Lawrend said.

"Fufufufu. Do you want to know how old I'm, Master?" Aezel asked with a smirk on her face.

"Come to think of it, I don't know how old you are yet," Lawrend replied as he held his chin in thought.

"I'm 23 years old, Master. Are you surprised?"

"Wow. You're much older than me by 5 years," Lawrend replied in amazement.

"Yes."

Aezel smiled happily after seeing his reaction.

Lawrend chatted with Aezel for a while more before she left after she was done cleaning. He was left alone in the room again, and he continued thinking about magic.

There were so many things in magic that it was hard for him to come to a conclusion. He was thinking of a new magic theory that can fit him that would also incorporate Elena's theory in it.

"What if I create a new magic theory based on physics?" Lawrend said out loud.

"Physics has a lot of rules. Then I should also create rules for magic. This way, I can teach it more easily similar to how it was taught in my past life."

"First of, how does magic even work? You probably can't create or destroy it so it should be similar to the law of thermodynamics that you can't create nor destroy energy."

"What about my lightning magic? It should be perfectly similar to electricity in my past life, but why is it in the form of mana?"

"Does that mean that my lightning mana is just a lot of electrons? But that doesn't make sense.. Electrons shouldn't behave like liquid inside my body."
