Combat Maid Harem



Lawrend was diligent and patient. This was the biggest magic formation in existence. He didn't know if there was one like this in the human world.

This was his only chance to study one. He used every bit of skills he could and innovated on the spot to speed up his studying processes. Sometimes the other Heaven Demons would come down and see what he was doing.

Juju woke up a week ago and checked up on him. She explained to him more about the portal.

Apparently, the runes and symbols of the magic formation appeared near the other portals. This was something he planned to check on later if this still didn't work out.

A week passed. Lawrend paused as he was checking on a tiny branch of runes and symbols stretching outwards.

"Wait…"

Lawrend realized something. This magic formation wasn't the same as the ones he had made in the past and those that he had studied. The magic formation before him was like tree roots.

He knew that already, but he didn't think much of it. But as Lawrend was studying it earlier, he realized that his magic formation was made oddly.

It was made in a way that didn't fit his understanding of magic formation! It was so unique Lawrend couldn't understand it.

That realization caused Lawrend to sigh. It was no wonder he couldn't decipher this magic formation.

The universe was a boundless place. There were more worlds out there that might be similar to the situation of the human world and the demon world. No one said that there could only be one way to make a magic formation.

This revelation supported Lawrend's idea that this world was abandoned by the previous race living in it. As for why, Lawrend still had no idea. The magic formation couldn't tell him.

With his new approach, Lawrend started learning more about the magic formation. These runes spreading outwards would appear in a sequence at the main branch.

He was wrong about his hypothesis that the creator or creators of this magic formation added a concealing function. There was no reason for them to add that function if they planned to leave the world.

No one would have been left to study the secrets of the magic formation. The only reason Lawrend was here now was because of the human world.

Who knew the history between the two?

Although he understood more about how the magic formation worked, it didn't exactly help as it was a huge structure. Lawrend couldn't understand more than the smaller parts.

It was like understanding the words in a book, but not understanding what the book meant. It left him helpless.

Lawrend pulled out the crystal ball made by the Runic Heaven Mage. This was supposed to be used to contact them in case he encountered an emergency with the Goddess.

He never had the chance to use it. He caressed it with his soul's hand and sensed the runes and symbols within. He compared it to those he learned from the ancient magic formation.

This didn't help at all. It only made Lawrend confused. He pulled out a sword from his storage ring.

This sword was nothing but a normal iron sword. It was randomly in his ring, and he didn't know why it was there.

There must've been a reason in the past, but he had already forgotten due to it being the weakest and most useless weapon inside.

Though, because it was the weakest and most useless, it was also the only weapon he was willing to risk destroying by engraving and putting on a magic formation based on what he learned from the ancient magic formation.

He waved his hand and arcs of lightning curved and etched onto the blade of the sword. He flicked his fingers and a thick bolt of lightning etched a giant gorge that ran from the middle of the blade to the hilt.

"Done."

Lawrend held it in his hands and examined it. The sword was still the same as before. If he had used the magic formations he knew, it should be glowing with mana.

'Is it a failure?' Lawrend thought to himself in confusion.

He couldn't accept that he failed. He thought he understood how this unique magic formation worked.

He held the handle tightly and sent a steady stream of lightning magic into it.

"..."

The iron sword had no reaction at all. He could feel his lightning mana flowing through it, but then it would stop and freeze.

If he tried to force it in, the mana would rip apart the iron sword.

Lawrend was dejected. Though, he was stubborn. Failure was something he saw as normal.

He tried sending in his other elements and the result was the same. Finally, to see what reaction all of the elements would have when sent together, he did just that.

*Fwoom*

Lawrend didn't expect it but a reaction came from the iron sword. It vibrated and then glowed a rainbow color. Streaks of different colors ran through the blade.

It was like a pool of bright colorful liquid swirling around. It was so shocking Lawrend didn't know what to say.

The function of the magic formation he put on it was unknown, so he didn't know what it was capable of yet.

Lawrend raised it up, and he sensed a faint flow of mana from the surroundings heading to the hilt of the sword and absorbing the mana to power itself.

Lawrend stopped sending his manas into it and then its colorful effects slowly died down. It wasn't sudden like a normal magic formation that would lose its effects as soon as mana was stopped supplying to it.

"Amazing..!" Lawrend exclaimed

This was better than he could've hoped for. The magic formation relied on a similar branching pattern unique to plants.

It was unlike the artificial patterns of the magic formations Lawrend knew. He was impressed beyond words.

Lawrend spent the next three months testing out various magic formations made using the branching pattern.
