Ember focused on ingesting the new information in her mind. It was greatly beneficial for her.
Lawrend bubbled his mouth in the bathtub as he relaxed. He wasn’t in the mood to play with Ember. His mind was simulating possible formations.
His soul was already a True Mage in all of the elements. Once he increased them all to High Mage, he would become even smarter.
“Formations… Hmmm… It looks like magical formations but significantly simplified,” Lawrend muttered in thought.
He instantly found a connection between the two of them. He wasn’t knowledgeable about magical formations, but he understood the basics. He only needed to find a suitable one for the army’s use, and he should be able to convert it to a formation they could use.
It was significantly easier to convert a pre-existing one than to create his own.
After almost an hour of rumination in the bathtub, Lawrend stood up.
“Ember, help me get dressed,” Lawrend ordered.
“Yes, Master,” Ember replied.
She stopped meditating and entered the room. Her face blushed when she saw his naked body.
Lawrend stepped out of the bathtub with his donger standing erect. She pretended not to see it as she wiped the water off his body. A few minutes later, she finished and helped him wear a new set of clothes.
She struggled with the lower part as she was breathless near its majestic appearance. Alas, Lawrend didn’t invite her, so she didn’t touch it.
After getting dressed, Lawrend slept on the bed. Ember lay in front of him, and he embraced her from behind.
He closed his eyes and relaxed.
“M-Master, I haven’t taken a bath yet,” Ember said with embarrassment.
She was sweaty while listening to the lecture earlier.
“It’s fine. You still smell good,” Lawrend replied.
He wasn’t lying. She was still quite young with her mana very powerful. It would be hard for her to smell bad even if she wanted to.
“Ah~”
Ember whimpered from his words. She was powerless before him. At this moment, she wouldn’t resist if he wanted to devour her again.
Lawrend fell asleep peacefully. He actually didn’t need to sleep, but he did it because it was enjoyable. His mind felt refreshed every time he woke up from sleep. It was the best state to ponder the mysteries of magic.
Ember also fell asleep from the comfort of sleeping in his embrace. Although she didn’t know him for long, she fell in love with him because of his charisma.
The next day Lawrend opened his eyes with the bed empty. He turned his head to the bathroom. The sound of water splashing could be heard from inside.
He wanted to open the door and watch her bath, but he remembered the formation he needed to create for the army. He sat cross-legged and meditated.
He took out the crystal ball from the Altro Continent.
“Master, do you want me to service you?” Valentina asked.
She knew about what he did to the others, so she had been expecting him to look for her.
“I want to view the magical formations on this crystal ball,” Lawrend said.
“Oh?”
“I will entertain you later. This next battle is very important,” Lawrend replied after seeing the doubt on her face.
“Very well, Master. I can wait.” Valentina nodded her head.
A blinding light appeared, and the crystal ball started shining in some places.
“These are the parts I have understood, Master.”
Lawrend focused his eyes on the formation lines. They formed various shapes. Some of them were bizarre and complex. He simulated them in his mind to test out their abilities.
“Interesting…”
Lawrend was engrossed in the magical formations.
Ember came out of the bathroom naked with water dripping from her kingdom toppling body. She grabbed the towel hanging on the wall and wiped herself. She noticed Lawrend’s focused gaze on the crystal ball.
She walked over behind him and gazed at them.
“Oh! Isn’t this the Runic State’s formations?” Ember was surprised at the revelation.
“You know about them?” Lawrend asked and stopped looking at the crystal ball.
“Yes. An envoy from them visited us a few years back. They offered us services for their unique formations. We tried them out, and everyone in the clan was impressed.”
“I see. Do you have any of their formation blueprints with you?” Lawrend asked.
“Here.”
Ember didn’t hesitate and passed him several pieces of leather paper. Profound and complex formations were drawn on them. They weren’t the typical formations found in the Primitus Continent.
It was unique and unlike others. Only found in the Runic State.
“Thank you.”
Lawrend thanked her. These formation blueprints were a massive help to him. Some of them were more complete compared to what Valentina understood.
“Interesting. These are easier to understand,” Valentina suddenly said.
“Who!?”
Ember turned around, but there was no one inside the room besides the two of them.
“I forgot. You haven’t met Valentina yet,” Lawrend said with a wry smile on his face.
“Valentina?”
“It’s me.”
A mist escaped the crystal ball and formed Valentina’s peerless body. Of course, she had her clothes on.
“A ghost!? They’re real!?” Ember shouted in shock.
She heard about ghosts, but there were no concrete texts about them even in her clan. Thus, she thought they were mere fiction.
“I’m as real as can be, little girl,” Valentina said teasingly.
Her smile was full of charm and beauty. Ember was surprised at her features. She was opaque and not semi-transparent as she expected.
If she didn’t appear bizarrely like earlier, she would’ve thought that she was a fleshly being.
“This is all thanks to Master.”
Valentina smiled and looked at Lawrend lovingly. He fully deserved all of her love. She owed him a lot after he gathered all of her soul shards.
“Can I touch you?” Ember asked.
She was full of curiosity towards her. She read a lot in her free time, but she never came across a concrete text about ghosts. Most of them were legends and myths. She couldn’t believe them at all.
