Combat Maid Harem Chapter 40 - Another Lawrend

Lawrend's consciousness entered his head, and he saw pictures. The dreams that he had in the past beca more vivid. He saw bits and pieces of a life of a man in a different world. He still couldn't understand most of it, but all of it felt familiar to him for so reason.

'What is this?'

Lawrend thought to himself as he saw a huge sharp pointy building rise into the sky before disappearing high above in the atmosphere.

'A rocket.'

To his surprise, the words just ca out of his mouth. Lawrend felt confused and amazed at the sa ti. This was the first ti that this has happened to him.

The scene changed, and he saw a huge green guy running around and wreaking havoc in a city.

'What in the world…'

Lawrend was speechless. It looked like a goblin, but it was very big and muscular. A goblin couldn't possibly be that big.

'The Incredible *ulk.'

Once again, the answer ca out of Lawrend's own mouth.

Then Lawrend saw many more things, and each ti, he would answer it himself.

'Was that my past life?'

Lawrend questioned himself as the changing scenes ended. This ti, a different scene played out. It was what happened earlier in the day.

He saw himself slowly devolving into madness as he watched the bloody and mutilated parts of the goblins fall all around him. But for so reason, Lawrend didn't feel anything. It was as if he was just a spectator watching a show.

'I feel nothing?'

The scene slowly faded away into darkness. Lawrend was bewildered. He saw himself getting traumatized and falling into madness, but he still felt nothing even though he should have reacted the sa now.

'The world is much eviler than what you think it is.'

Lawrend heard his voice once again. And instead of it coming from his own mouth, it was coming from the darkness in front of him this ti.

Another Lawrend walked out of the darkness. He looked exactly like him from head to toe: the sa red hair and skinny body. There was an odd feeling coming from him that Lawrend couldn't put into words.

'Who are you!? Why do you look like ?!'

Lawrend shouted to the other Lawrend in front of him.

'? I'm soone who was promised to get a new life in this world. Instead, this happened.'

The other Lawrend had a frown on his face as he opened his arms outward to pertain that he was talking about this event right now.

'Promise? New life?'

Lawrend beca confused by his words. It didn't make sense to him.

'You would know about it soon. Anyways, you now have a small part of . One day…'

The other Lawrend spoke to him mysteriously before he faded away as he was finishing his words.

'Wait!'

Lawrend tried to claw at him and grab him, but he grabbed nothing. He wanted answers. He wanted to know what was happening to him. Why were these scenes showing up? Why was there another him that felt entirely unfamiliar?

Lawrend continued grabbing into the darkness before a faint voice called out to him. It slowly got louder and louder as Lawrend paid more attention to it.

"...-ng Master! Young Master!!"

Lawrend opened his eyes and saw Aleshia's face very close to his. He tried to sit up in reflex, and he hit her forehead.

"Ow!"

"Ahh!"

Lawrend and Aleshia clutched at their foreheads as the pain from bumping each other's forehead assaulted them. Lawrend rolled to the side and lay on his stomach as he held his forehead.

Aleshia was sitting in a seiza position as she looked up and held her forehead with one hand. Her face was distorted in pain.

"...What was that for?"

Aleshia let go of her forehead and looked at Lawrend in front of her. He was lying on his stomach perpendicular to her.

"I didn't an to."

Lawrend smiled at her awkwardly in embarrassnt.

"It's fine. Anyways, are you okay?"

There was worry on Aleshia's face as she looked at Lawrend.

Earlier, she ca back with the cooked food, and she saw Lawrend lying on the ground carelessly. Allen was beside him and acting as his guard. In her worry, she lifted his head from the ground and put it on her lap.

Just as she woke him up, he opened his eyes, and they bumped their foreheads together.

"I.. think?"

Lawrend wasn't sure of it himself, but he felt like more knowledge was inside his mind now. He could still vividly rember what he saw inside his head.

"You think?"

Aleshia tilted her head in confusion. Lawrend was only confusing her more and more.

"I feel fine, but… never mind. Forget it."

Lawrend was about to open his mouth and explain to her what he saw inside his head but decided against it at the last second. He didn't know how to explain it to her anyway.

"Huh? Were you about to say sothing to ?"

Aleshia asked in confusion. She felt like Lawrend was about to say sothing to her, but he stopped midway.

"It was just nonsense."

Lawrend moved his right hand exaggeratedly as if to emphasize that it was just nonsense.

"O-Okay."

Aleshia reluctantly accepted it. There's nothing she could do if Lawrend didn't want to say it to her.

Growl~~

Lawrend looked down at his stomach and looked at the cooked at served on the side. He slled the cooked at, and his stomach growled once again as if to protest that it hadn't been fed yet.

"This is so good. It's just like sous vide steak."

Lawrend exclaid as he ate the slab of at served on a porcelain plate.

"'Sous Vide'?"

Aleshia was confused at Lawrend's words. She has never heard this 'sous vide' thing.

"Ah, it- it just ans that it's delicious."

Lawrend imdiately panicked when he realized that he just said sothing he shouldn't have. It sohow ca out of his mouth without his control.

"R-Really?"

Aleshia's eyes lit up as she heard Lawrend's words.

'She's definitely more open to .'

Lawrend thought a he looked at her acting so close to him. It was like what happened the past few days was just a dream.

"Ehem. Yes. Your cooking is very delicious."

Lawrend felt like he couldn't let this chance go, so he praised her with a smile on his face.
