Chapter 58: The Aftermath And Lawrend's New Goal

Reagen lifted Reon carefully. There was not a trace of the image of a Branch Guild Master on his visage anymore. He was just a lone survivor of a tragedy.

"T-The demon…"

Reon warned Reagen with difficulty. Earlier, when he was thrown into the air by the steam explosion, he didn't see if the Noble Demon defended herself or not.

Reagen stayed still when Reon reminded him. He looked around the area carefully and used his swordsman skills to detect the tiniest of movements. After a while when he was sure that nothing was moving in their surroundings, he slowly floated into the air and left the area.

When they got out of the thick fog, Reagen turned back. The fog was already disappearing as the coastal wind blew it away and up into the atmosphere. One day, these vast amounts of water vapor will fall to the earth. Surely creating a destructive rainfall.

"She's most likely heavily injured or even dead."

Reagen said to Reon. The only reason Reon is alive right now was because of the enhancements his years of practicing magic did to his body.

Reon turned his head with difficulty to the port area and looked on with dread in his eyes. Such a powerful demon has come to attack one of the trading hubs of the Undrasil Kingdom. This will be big news that will surely create a ripple across the whole continent.

Reagen turned back and entered the city. A small opening opened for him on the defensive magic circle's barrier.

Back to Lawrend.

Lawrend watched as the thick fog slowly disappeared. Soon, the aftermath can be clearly seen from Lawrend's vantage point.

The ships that were docked at the port were destroyed. Who knows how many lives were lost?

The port was now flat ground. Scattered bodies of demons and some humans can be seen sprawled all around.

"The war between humans and demons, huh…"

Lawrend thought deeply. His life would be much more complicated than he thought it would be now that peace seems to be disturbed.

"Young Master, do you know why that demon woman wanted you?"

Aleshia asked him in curiosity. She was genuinely curious now why such a powerful demon would be after Lawrend. It also has to be mentioned that Lawrend and Aleshia have no idea that she was called a Noble Demon.

"I'm not sure, but from what that other demon shouted to her, I can guess that it's because of my talent. The same reason the Guild Master wanted me to be an Elite Member of the guild."

Lawrend replied to her as he deduced what happened earlier.

"I see. Then what should we do now, Young Master? The shipment that you were waiting for is now destroyed."

Aleshia nodded her head in understanding before asking Lawrend the thing that bothers her the most now.

"I'll train. I now understand how naive I was into thinking that I was powerful when I first used my Shock Arc spell."

Lawrend responded to her solemnly. He looked at the destroyed port area with eyes filled with determination. That demon woman is definitely not dead. Lawrend had to prepare for the time when she comes back looking for him.

There's also his goal of making a Maid Harem. Without strength, he would not be able to protect the girls that he will court in the future. Just recently, he almost lost Aleshia.

Lawrend couldn't help but turn towards Aleshia and he embraced her tightly.

"Ah! Young Master…"

Aleshia was surprised that Lawrend suddenly embraced her. For Lawrend, she held a special place in his heart. If he lost her, he would surely be heartbroken, and he would find it hard to explain to Ella what happened to her beloved Big Sister.

"Aleshia, I want you to train with me. I didn't know what to do when we were stuck in that situation. My strength was nowhere near enough to even hold a candle in front of them."

Lawrend tightened his embrace. It was such a despairing moment to be powerless in a life-and-death situation.

"Of course, Young Master. Since you said so, we'll grow stronger together."

Aleshia replied softly. It would be a lie to say that she didn't feel the same. She was tasked to protect him, but at that moment, she was also lost on what to do. Even her plan to sneak away backfired against them.

"Thank you, Aleshia."

Lawrend let go of her. He felt much better now.

"It's okay, Young Master. We have time with us. We'll surely get stronger. Enough to protect ourselves."

Aleshia reassured Lawrend. The climax of their lives is not even starting yet. This was just the prelude.

"Yes. Now let's go back to the inn. I'm worried for Allen."

Lawrend nodded his head. He urged Aleshia, and they both returned to the inn.

Since they couldn't get a carriage as almost everyone was riding one to exit the city quickly, they could only walk towards the inn.

After a long walk, they arrived at the inn. Everyone were already returning as the news that the demons were dead was spreading.

They entered their room, and they found… a bigger Allen. He was sitting on top of half-digested rotting vegetables.

"..."

"..."

Lawrend was speechless. Although it was not mentioned, they did ask the inn staff to feed the slime with their leftover or rotting vegetables. Now that he is looking at a significantly bigger Allen, he thought that they overdid it.

"Allen?"

Lawrend called for it. It was at least as big as a large plate now.

Allen turned his slime body towards Lawrend and bounced towards him. A few bounces later, he stopped and crawled to Lawrends feet before touching his legs.

"Good slime."

Lawrend squatted down and rubbed Allen on its top. In response, Allen's body vibrated just like a purring cat.

"Young Master, what if Allen grows too big?"

Aleshia couldn't help but ask him in worry. At this rate, he would grow as large as their carriage.

"...We can only set him free at that time, but I'm hoping that his growth has a limit."

It pained Lawrend's heart when he thought of that. It was fun taking care of a slime as a pet. He would surely miss Allen if they had to let him go.
