Lawrend was very excited to start this process. It would mark his start to become a Heaven Mage.
His maids and his children watched on with excited smiles on their faces. They were affected by his positive energy. They hoped that he would succeed.
Naturally, Lawrend was confident with success. He stared at the red sun hanging above the sky and saw it as a challenge to succeed.
Lawrend crossed his legs. A faint smoke figure escaped his mouth, nostrils, and ears. They formed a ghostly figure above his head.
It was none other than Lawrend's soul body. He copied the same posture as his physical body and planted himself in space. He released his control over mana and spread it as far as he could.
The fire, water, wind, earth, plant, lightning, light, and darkness manas started slowly moving towards him. It was slow, but it was simply because Lawrend was trying to control vast amounts of mana. These manas repelled and reacted with each other when they were pulled extremely close to each other.
If someone saw what Lawrend was doing, they would think that he was crazy. But of course, no one would be able to even imagine that something such as this was possible. He was the only All-Element Mage in existence.
"Move back! This is dangerous!" Elena shouted and pulled the children away with her slime tentacles.
The other maids followed suit with worry on their faces. The vastness of Lawrend's mana control scared them all. He was trying to become a Heaven Mage in one go.
"Master is crazy!" Aezel shouted.
"We will witness history…" Nao muttered while being pulled away by Ramiela.
The group didn't dare to dilly-dally. They were within a very close radius of Lawrend.

What Aezel and the others expected didn't come immediately. A day had passed ever since Lawrend started.
"Is this going to be a long one again?" Aleshia guessed.
"Possibly," Ramiela replied.
"What should we do?" Ella asked.
"For now, we should look out for master," Aezel said.
The maid group wanted to protect Lawrend.
But as for his children… they wanted to explore the vast desert. They were curious about the secrets hidden under the sand and naive-looking background.
…
A few more days passed, and Lawrend was now the eye of a storm. Colorful liquid mana rained down on his body as iridescent clouds revolved around him. He looked like a god bathing in the world's essence.
"Very interesting…"
A faint but audible male voice sounded.
Lawrend's soul body opened his eyes and stared at the unwelcome visitor.
He had two sharp curved red horns on top of his head. He had a muscular body and a naked top, and he floated in the air with a relaxed expression on his face.
The man was absurdly handsome by all means. A lot of men wouldn't be able to compare to him. His sneering smile was particularly irritating to the eyes.
"Who are you?" Lawrend asked.
"That's what I should ask. Who are you? How do you have all of the elements? You're even… A half-demon?"
"I'm Lawrend, a passerby."
"I know every Earth Demon and every Heaven Demon. None of them had the name 'Lawrend'. Tell me. Did you come from the other side?" he asked.
"You didn't tell me your name yet," Lawrend calmly replied.
"Ahahaha! Sure. The name is Gilgamesh. One of the Twelve Heaven Demons of the Demon World. Lawrend, are you a friend or a foe!?"
His voice boomed for hundreds of kilometers. The shockwave was so strong it shook the clouds of mana above Lawrend.
"I'm neither. I don't care about your race, nor do I plan to exterminate you."
"Sorry, but I can't have that at the moment. You either become our ally, or I will kill you here and now!" Gilgamesh roared.
"Really?"
Lawrend raised an eyebrow.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJust like he thought, becoming a Heaven Mage wouldn't be that easy. There would always be a problem, no matter what. Last time he failed because his Will wasn't strong enough. And this time, someone wanted to kill him.
"I admire your talents, but we can't have an unknown in our own backyard. Die for me!"
Gilgamesh grabbed the staff on his back and pointed it at Lawrend. It glowed a colorful orange light that blinded anyone that stared directly at it.
"Stop."
A wall of swirling, colorful mana formed between Lawrend and Gilgamesh. The giant punch-shaped flame made of pure demonic fire mana shattered on impact with it.
To Gilgamesh's shock, the fire mana he had just used flowed upwards to the clouds above. He didn't expect that Lawrend would be able to control the mana he had just used on a spell.
"You're much more stronger than I anticipated. No wonder you're an All-Element half-demon. Who is your mother?" Gilgamesh asked with squinted eyes.
The best way to understand why someone was very talented was to look at their parents. This was the demon's way as they were all descended from demon women killing a human male to give birth to a talented male baby. Sometimes there were exceptions where talented demon males would be chosen instead.
"She's dead…"
A sadness filled Lawrend's face. But then, he suddenly remembered his mother from his past life. A sense of urgency filled him.
A strong feeling of wanting to tell her about everything that had happened to him welled up within his heart. It was weird and illogical. This was the first time that Lawrend had thought of her ever since he came to this world.
"She's not a Heaven Demon, was she? None of them had died recently."
Gilgamesh was calmer this time. Perhaps, it was because of Lawrend's show of strength.
"Enough of this. Why are you here? If you want to defeat me today, that's impossible. I have a dense amount of mana under my control right now."
