Combat Maid Harem-Chapter 756 Interrogating A Demon

Aleshia straightened her posture and looked down at the dead demon's body on the ground. She furrowed her eyebrows and gave it a light kick. She waited for a few seconds, and only then did she relax.

"He's dead," Aleshia said to Lawrend.

They walked out of the shrubbery and curiously walked over to the dead demon. Its body was deformed and black like rotting wood. Its features were barely human.

"Y-Your race was like this 10,000 years ago?" Lawrend asked Aezel.

"Yes, Master. I'm the 301st generation demon in my family line," she replied.

Lawrend was surprised after hearing it. In only ten thousand years, the demon race became exceptionally similar to the human race just because they kidnapped them and forced them to impregnate them. Maybe in a few thousand years more, the demon race would become too human-like to be distinguishable.

It made sense to Lawrend why the demons would opt to invade the human world. It was the best and fastest way for them to become stronger and become more human-like.

"I see…"

Lawrend crouched beside the dead demon and flipped him over. The demon had an extremely ugly face and two malformed horns sticking out of his head. He wasn't like Aezel when they first met, who was extremely alluring, and her horns were straight.

"Let's go."

Lawrend urged them on. The drop continued following the path and exited to a clearing. There was a huge empty grassland in the middle of the forest with a small dilapidated hut in the middle.

"Someone is inside," Lawrend whispered.

He could see the faint flow of elemental mana into the hut. There was someone in there that was practicing magic.

The group went into high alert. Lawrend motioned for Aleshia to head out first.

They made careful not to make any loud sounds. Ramiela motioned for them to time their footsteps together with her fingers. Thus, the group got closer and closer until they were practically outside it.

"Aezel, Aleshia, go! I will watch over from the top," Lawrend ordered.

"Yes, Master–!"

"Yes…"

The two responded while trying to make the least noise possible.

Lawrend took a step forward and flew up above the hut. He landed on a hard wooden part on the roof. He took this chance to look around the unfamiliar world around him. There were violet trees everywhere.

A large red sun hung over the sky just above the horizon. It seemed to be almost sunset.

'What a beautiful world. Is this the Spirit World that I've seen in Valentina's memory?' Lawrend thought to himself.

His heart ached once more as he remembered his lost maid. He touched the line in the middle of his face and closed his eyes.

*Bam* *Creak* *Bam*

"Ugguhhh!"

A pained moan came from inside.

"Master, we got him!"

Aleshia came out while pulling a disheveled demon man by his hair. He tried to stand up, but Aleshia didn't give him the chance to get leverage, so he ended up getting dragged through the ground.

"Let me go! Who are you people!?" he shouted.

The demon glared at Aezel and the others. His angry face quickly turned to confusion before he became stunned. He realized that most of these people were humans.

"Fufufufu. What is your name?" Aezel asked and stood in front of him.

"M-Miss, please don't kill me! I'm a good demon! I've never been to the human world!" the demon man screamed in fear for his life. He didn't want to die a pointless death.

"Oh, but I'm a demon…" Aezel said slowly and crouched in front of him.

"Huh…"

The demon man stared at Aezel and sensed the thick smell of demons coming from her. He turned his head up to Aleshia behind him and found that she smelled different.

"Y-You're betraying your own kind!" the demon man was shocked to learn about this.

"No, I'm not. This is my kind's chance to follow my Master. If they don't, they will lose their only chance," Aezel replied and stood up with a teasing smile on her face.

Lawrend jumped down and landed beside the demon man. He eyed him up and down.

Compared to the earlier demon, this guy had white skin, similar to most humans in the Primitus Continent. He had two crooked horns, but overall, he looked better than most demons. 𝘧𝒓e𝑒𝑤e𝙗𝚗o𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝐜𝐨ｍ

"You are…"

The demon man stared at Lawrend's weird features. Half of his face was black, and the other was red.

"Also a demon..?"

The demon was confused about what was going on. He was just practicing magic when this group of thugs pulled him out of his home, and now they were interrogating him like a criminal.

"That's correct. Tell me everything you know about this place," Lawrend replied and sat in front of him.

The demon couldn't sense what kind of magic Lawrend had, and it caused him to sweat.

"W-We are in the outskirts of the Lucida Empire! Empress Lucida is the ruler of this domain with hundreds of thousands of demon male followers! I- I wanted to become one of them, so I'm here to practice my mag–"

"Shut up! We don't need to know about that!" Aezel shouted after kicking him in the side of his stomach.

"Sorry!"

The demon closed his legs together and brought his legs to his chest. His body shivered as he realized that he was screwed for real.

"How strong is this Empress Lucida?" Lawrend asked.

"She's a Heaven Demon!"

"That is a Heaven Mage, right?" Lawrend asked Aezel.

"Yes, Master."

"Interesting. So what is this guy called? He looked to be a High Mage."

Lawrend hadn't met any demons before after he gained his elemental eyes, but he could still guess because of the concentration and purity of the demon's mana within his body.

"He is a Noble Demon. Not at the bottom, but it should be impossible for him to become a Royal Demon."

Aezel's cold eyes scanned the demon man's body. He lowered his head in sadness after hearing her judgment. He had been trying to become a Royal Demon for so long.
