“Enough. Humility, I know you love me a lot, but you should know what I want with my maids. You need to learn how to keep up with the others or one day, I will find it hard to bring you with us.”
Lawrend was disappointed at her. The way he looked at her now was different compared to before. His love was vast, but it also had its limits. She was in his harem.
If she gave him a lot of reasons, it would be hard for him to keep her. After all, he still had other women that would fill in the void she left. He was even sure that they would be more than happy to have less women sharing him.

“Master…”
Humility widened her eyes and floated in the air, frozen. She couldn’t believe it that he was saying those words to her. Her fantasy that he would always love her no matter what shattered.
Lawrend didn’t feel bad with the harsh words he just said. Humility needed to stop fooling around. This wasn’t the first time she acted like this.
It also happened before they left the Human World. She was being picky back then, and now, she showed him a disappointing result.
“Master…”
Humility didn’t know what to say. She wanted to make an excuse, but she was scared that she would say the wrong thing and truly anger him to leaving her. It was the worst nightmare for her.
Lawrend was her love, and no one could replace him in her heart. She only wanted him and was even willing to tolerate a harem just to experience his love.
Aleshia stared at Humility with a frown. She couldn’t help but imagine that that would’ve been her if she hadn’t tried her best to improve herself. It was a relief that it wasn’t her, but it was also scary that they might lose another one of their members soon.
“Aezel, you have my permission to punish her,” Lawrend ordered.
Aezel had just returned after taking Ember to her bed.
“Fufufu.”
Aezel laughed and stared at Humility with interested eyes. It was unknown what kind of punishment she had in store for her.
“I’m sorry, Master.”
Humility avoided Lawrend’s eyes and floated to Aezel’s side. She kept her head down and didn’t say anything. Aezel was more than happy to punish Humility. She would make sure that Humility would never leave their group.
“Amene.”
Amene, the orange haired catgirl, stepped forward and jumped to his embrace. She rubbed her cheek against his chest and sniffed his scent. She missed him so much.
She didn’t get enough time to sniff all of his smell earlier when they all group hugged him.
“I’m sorry I haven’t made your bow yet,” Lawrend said with a guilty smile on his face.
Amene would definitely have had improved more if she got the bow he was planning to make her. Unfortunately, he didn’t have the opportunity to make it when he already got all of the necessary materials.
“Nyaa! It’s okay. I’m still learning about the bow without a proper one,” Amene replied and smiled at him.
All she wanted to do to him right now was to suck his soul out of him. Her feral instincts were screaming at her to strip him down.
“You did a good job becoming an Earth Mage.”
Lawrend was honestly surprised to see Amene’s improvements. She barely received any guidance from him. The path of the bow was also unexplored.
She was basically creating all of the magic for the bow as she went. It was amazing that she was able to improve so much in a short amount of time.
“Nyahaha. Thank you, Master. I worked hard.”
Amene felt happy to see that he wasn’t disappointed in her. Her eyes accidentally looked behind her and glanced at Humility.
Humility sensed her gaze and looked up. Their eyes met, and Amene quickly turned her head away to avoid making things awkward.
Humility took a hard blow when she understood what Amene was trying to tell her. She didn’t work hard enough. She worried too much instead of trusting in their master.
Humility was full of regrets, and she firmed up her resolve to grow stronger. She looked over at Elena, and she nodded her head at her. The two of them got a mutual understanding without saying anything.
Elena could teach Humility how to use her magic better and improve faster.
Lawrend rubbed Amene’s ears.
“Nyaa…”
She closed her eyes and purred in enjoyment. Her tail swung left and right exaggeratedly as if she wanted the world to know how much she enjoyed his hand rubbing her cat ears.
“Go back. Grape.”
Lawrend sent Amene to return and motioned for Grape to come forward.
She flew forward slowly and bowed to him. She still felt gratitude for him accepting her. Her life had taken a turn for the better when she joined his harem.
She was able to have a good life, experience his love, and learn magic. In exchange, she loved him and taught his other maids how to perform better in bed.
That was why Lawrend was quite tolerant of her lack of talent. She was a good cat maid, and Lawrend liked the idea of having her since she was really good at her stuff.
“Nyaa?”
Grape blinked her eyes at him, insinuating that he wanted something from her.
“You’re still an Arch Mage, but that’s fine.”
Grape had missed the best time for her to improve in magic. It was thus understandable why she struggled to become better at it.
“Thank you for your magnanimity, Master,” Grape replied and bowed.
She was professional since she had a lot of experience dealing with all kinds of customers in the past. She knew how to show her gratefulness.
“I will need you and Amene later. Remind me,” Lawrend said.
“Nyaa! I will ‘prepare’ Sister Amene and I,” Grape replied and smirked.
Her two cat ears jumped up in joy.
