Combat Maid Harem

Chapter 824 Stealing Laws

Just like the asteroid that struck Earth and caused a mass extinction, a similar thing happened to his planetary system. The red marble sunk into the ground and created waves of earth and water that stretched out.

Large bits and pieces of the land were gouged out and sent to space. These shot through the atmosphere and returned to the planet glowing red hot. This resulted in the temperature of the planet skyrocketing.

The mammals, reptiles, plants, etc that lived on Lawrend's planet died off. Only some remained, and they were only lucky because they were hidden beneath the earth or were in the vast ocean of the planet.

"!!!"

West was terrified when he saw the faint shadow of Lawrend's planetary system. It wasn't real yet, but it was already almost at that point. Soon, he would have a real-world of his own.

"NO!"

West suddenly sensed his connection to the red marble was cut off. It was as if the red marble entered a bottomless abyss. He could only stare at Lawrend in disbelief.

"Thank you, Hahahaha!" Lawrend laughed and waved his hand.

His planetary system disappeared and returned to the inside of his soul. He didn't expect it to work. His planetary system contained a pseudo-real world.

It was the seed of his Will to create a world where he could live forever with his maids and children. It was very compatible with the red marble that was made of condensed laws of the demon world.

It was only natural that West would lose his connection to it because the red marble was technically not his. He was simply controlling it using his understanding of it.

Thus, the red marble preferred the planet compared to him and cut off its connection with him on its own. It was like a baby lizard preferring a lizard family instead of a human family.

The compatibility between the two was hugely apart.

"WHAT DID YOU DO!? YOU'RE CRAZY!" West screamed. His voice was filled with mana which caused his words to reach the whole demon world.

He could even be faintly heard in the human world through the portals.

"I'm taking back what's not yours," Lawrend replied coldly.

With the red marble out of West's control, Lawrend was more confident than ever that he could kill this man. He didn't have his strongest weapon anymore. He was like a baby.

He was only scary looking when he was holding a knife.

"I'm still a Divine Mage!" West shouted.

The red marble had already done its job long ago and helped him become a Divine Mage. His achievements with magic couldn't be taken away from him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have so easily shot the red marble at Lawrend.

Though, he was regretting it now. He didn't know anything about Lawrend and thought he was just a smart fellow that got his pride over his head.

The opposite was true for Lawrend. He knew West clearly. He knew what kind of person he was. He came here because he was confident in his abilities.

He got a scare earlier, but he still came out on top. His intuition about his strength always prevailed above all. It was a battle sense that he learned through his duels in the past.

"You're no match for me," Lawrend replied.

He was like the sun before West. The other party might be a Divine Mage, but he was still against Lawrend who could use the purple combined divine magic.

It was a unique power in the universe that Lawrend was confident there should be few that could rival him in the infinite vastness of the myriad worlds.

"..."

West knew that, but he still didn't back down. He was someone who had killed his own wife to achieve power. He had pride that couldn't be shattered just because his opponent could defeat him.

Besides, West knew something that Lawrend didn't.

"The world obeys my wishes, the world is a sacred tomb, Lawrend Ignis is doomed, forever entombed…"

It was a simple chant from West.

Lawrend felt the mana in the surroundings flow erratically. They escaped from his influence and rushed towards him. The blue skies, yellow sun, and green trees, all returned to their demonic colors.

The manas shattered back without the red marble supporting them, and they used that shattering as the momentum to attack Lawrend. They surrounded his physical body.

His physical body was made of things that the demon world had authority over. He was made of flesh, and the manas turned his flesh to stone.

The leftover manas he had that still hadn't escaped turned to stone just like all of his other flesh. For a moment, Lawrend thought that he was having a life crisis.

But he remembered that he was not a mage of the physical body, he was a mage of the soul body! His magic followed the greatest secret of the universe!

He was someone the Goddess feared, he was someone West feared, he… was Lawrend Ignis!

He would not die even with his physical body turned to stone.

Lawrend's soul jumped out of his body.

West was shocked as another Lawrend appeared out of nowhere. He didn't realize immediately that it was Lawrend's soul because of the power it held. It was almost corporeal.

It only had an infinitely small difference, and Lawrend's soul would be able to fool him into thinking that it was his physical body if he fixed that difference.

"The physical body hinders the mind. This is perfect, I can become a Divine Mage this way," Lawrend said and smiled.

Lawrend stared at West confidently. West's mouth was opened wide. At this point, he had too many shocks and surprises that he might get a heart attack soon, even though such a thing wasn't probable for a Divine Mage.

"You put magic into your soul!?" West screamed in realization.

He wracked his mind as to how it was possible. He had read countless ancient texts and found ones from previous civilizations. There was no mention of the soul being able to contain magic!
