Combat Maid Harem

Chapter 820 Meeting Divine Mage West

Sanaka and the others took turns reading the whole book. It took them a whole week of reading before they were able to digest what was inside.

The looks on their faces were solemn. The eyes they used to look at each other turned from trust to wariness. They didn't know if they could still trust the others after learning how the magic branching of the demon world worked.

It was powerful enough to grant any of them the power to change the course of history. They could become the sole leader and lead the demon world under their name and ideas.

It was a tempting idea that none of them were able to shake out of their heads, but of course, they also knew that the others had the same ideas. It was inevitable.

The power provided by the magic branching was too great for any of them to handle without feeling any sense of greed.

The only exception out of all of them was Juju. She looked at Lawrend and took a deep breath. He was able to reveal that information confidently, and he didn't seem to care at all.

He was also not surprised that the Heaven Demons were starting to have ideas about the magic branching. This let Juju know that Lawrend was confident in his strength.

'He is unstoppable at this rate,' Juju thought to herself.

It was unbelievable that Lawrend was still confident even after giving them access to such a powerful weapon.

"No more questions?" Lawrend asked.

Juju's thoughts were right. Lawrend was entirely confident that he could contain these Heaven Demons even after giving them access to the magic branching of the demon world. They were destined to fail if they tried to use it against him.

Lawrend told them how to control it, but he didn't tell them how to shut it down. He was the only one here that knew how to do it.

And for him, it was as simple as flicking his finger. He could even do it if they had started it already.

The Heaven Demons looked at each other. They all shook their heads together. They didn't have any questions as the book Lawrend compiled was simple to understand.

Lawrend nodded his head and left. He flew away without looking back.

Juju stared at his departing figure longingly. If she had met him earlier, how would their relationship have developed? At the moment, she still felt inferior compared to the others.

…

Lawrend closed his eyes and channeled his space mana through his soul and poured them through his physical body. He encapsulated his whole being in it and then tore space.

The tiny tear swallowed him whole, and he disappeared from his current location.

…

At a faraway land, space rippled. Lawrend abruptly appeared and looked down at the cave beneath him.

Inside it was a middle-aged man sitting with crossed legs. He opened his eyes and looked up at Lawrend.

His eyes stunned Lawrend for a moment.

His vision changed. Lawrend saw the world on fire. Many powerful mages flew up and threw their spells at each other. At the center of it all were Valentina and West.

The sky changed color and West flew up. Lawrend couldn't hear anything, but he could see Valentina's mouth screaming in anger.

West lifted his hand up and reached out to the sky. The laws of the world turned corporeal and flew into his body. West's appearance dramatically changed.

He turned into something unlike him. His eyes contained the images of the Spirit World breaking down under his influence, and his body emanated the aura of a God.

At that moment, the battle stopped. Everyone from both sides halted their fighting and stared at West in fear.

West exclaimed happily.

"Not so fast." Oddly enough, Lawrend heard the Goddess.

A figure appeared out of nowhere. It was someone Lawrend was very familiar with. She appeared in his dreams multiple times, and she helped Lawrend fix Veronica's damaged soul.

It was the Goddess!

The only difference was that this Goddess was faintly transparent. It was as if she was here, but not here at the same time.

The Goddess swept her vision around her. Each and everyone died including Valentina. West was the only one left.

He was stunned but because of his leftover feelings for Valentina, he waved his hand and took her soul under his care.

The Goddess wasn't done. She crushed her hand and then an image of clouds appeared behind her. It was heaven!

The boundless architecture and the holy aura with the immense concentration of pure light mana pouring down as waterfalls. It was something that transcended all of creation.

After that, the vision disappeared. Lawrend was still there.

West was staring at him calmly. He didn't fear Lawrend. Nor did he not know who Lawrend was.

"So, which side are you on?" West asked.

Lawrend immediately understood what West wanted. He needed an ally, and Lawrend was perfect.

"Do you want to Deicide?" Lawrend asked. [AN: To kill a God/Goddess.]

"Without her, magic will rise higher than ever. We will grow to control more worlds and gain access to boundless resources!" West responded.

A crazed and excited expression was on his face.

When Lawrend saw that, he frowned. This guy was still the same as ever. He would do everything to become strong.

Even if he wasn't, Lawrend would still not trust him. He knew that Veronica wouldn't want him to work together with the man that betrayed her.

And to complete his promise to her, he specifically came here.

"I disagree. We are humans. If you disregard emotions, you are no longer human," Lawrend said and squinted his eyes.

A wide smile formed on West's face. He shook his head as if he just heard a joke.

"You remind me of my deceased Wife," West replied.

"What is her name?" Lawrend asked.

Valentina had never told him her real name in the past. She specifically buried it, so she would forget about her horrible history.

"Hernessia."
