BOOM!
A bright red-purple bolt of lightning struck Lawrend's raised hand. Aezel's mouth opened wide in shock. That lightning is abnormal! It shouldn't be red and purple at the same time.
Lawrend felt all of the cells in his raised right hand send a signal of pain to his brain. He endured it and observed the path the lightning traveled to inside his arm. It created different and mesmerizing tree patterns.
Through the pain, Lawrend's senses were magnified. He clearly felt where the lightning traveled through inside his body which gave him a more clear picture.
Lawrend noticed that the color of the lightning was different from what he had expected. Instead of purple lightning, it was a mixture of red and purple lightning. It was similar to Aezel's red lightning magic.
'Could this be… her lightning? But why?'
Lawrend thought to himself in confusion.
He felt the lightning travel through his body and down to his feet. His body that was empty of mana, greedily absorbed some of the lightning.
It only lasted an instant, but Lawrend knew that he learned a lot from it. The last bit of lightning left his body, and he immediately felt exhausted. His whole body was tingling in pain.
"Argh…"
Lawrend opened his eyes and fell from the tree. Aezel saw him falling and immediately flew to catch him.
"Lawrend…"
She observed Lawrend's face that was warped in pain. She rubbed his head with a smile on her face.
"You did well."
She said with a beautiful smile on her face.

. [AN: Continuation of the last scene in Chapter 38]
"I am God."
The beautiful woman replied as the amused smile was still plastered on her face.
"G-God?"
The handsome man looked at her in disbelief. He looked around as if to confirm her words. He slapped his face, pinched his cheeks, and even smacked his forehead. Even with that, he did not wake up from the dream. Or rather, this was not a dream at all.
"What do you call a supreme being that can control and manage a whole universe?"
The beautiful woman asked him while still smiling in amusement.
"A G-God…"
The handsome man answered. He was dumbstruck. He actually met a god! And she's even a hot goddess!
"I'll give you a chance. I have heard your thoughts before your death."
The goddess said to him.
"So I'm really dead…"
The handsome man looked down in sadness. His life had already ended. He couldn't help but think of the cute and beautiful figurines he had on display at his home.
"Are you listening? You may have died in your previous world, but I'm giving you a chance to live in another."
The goddess said to him, annoyed.
"Isekai?"
The handsome man blinked in response.
"Correct. I will transmigrate you to my world."
The goddess nodded her head.
"But why?"
The handsome man asked in confusion while his face was still covered behind a blurry haze.
"Because he said so…"
The goddess replied to him with a meaningful smirk.

.
Lawrend opened his eyes. His breathing was haggard as he panted. He just had another weird dream. This time, it continued from where it left off before.
"Are you okay?"
Aezel's beautiful voice sounded from the side. He turned his head and remembered what happened before.
"Did I succeed?"
Lawrend asked her as he sat up.
"You did."
Aezel nodded her head. There was a smile hanging on her face as she looked at him.
Lawrend raised his body and stood up.
"Woaahh."
Lawrend was suddenly disoriented when he looked around. Everything around him seemed clearer than before. He could clearly see the droplet of water dripping from a tree leaf 10 meters away.
"What happened?"
Aezel asked him with worry on her face.
"Everything feels different than before."
Lawrend replied to her. He stood up and looked at his surroundings in curiosity. The rain had already stopped, and It was silent and peaceful.
"That's the effect of your breakthrough."
Aezel explained to him. After being struck by lightning, his control of mana increased, which led to him increasing the capacity of his mana reserves. Including the fact that he had purer mana already, it was inevitable that he became a True Mage.
"Breakthrough?"
Lawrend repeated her words in confusion.
"Check the inside of your body."
Aezel didn't explain much. Lawrend closed his eyes and looked inside his body.
He shockingly noticed the flow of red and purple lightning mana inside his body. There was significantly more of it compared to before too.
"T-This is-! Did I become a True Mage?"
Lawrend exclaimed in shock. He looked towards Aezel to ask in confirmation.
"Fufufu. Do you still need to ask?"
Aezel laughed seeing Lawrend looking at her for confirmation.
"I'm finally stronger."
Lawrend said as he clenched his fists. He was one step towards protecting his maids.
"Show me your strength."
Aezel said to Lawrend.
"Alright."
Lawrend nodded his head. This time, he was attempting something that he couldn't do before. He stood straight and pointed his palm towards a tree far in front of him.
Lawrend closed his eyes and focused.
"+Shock… ARC+!"
Lawrend didn't chant this time.
BOOM!
A long bolt of purple lightning escaped his palm and struck the tree. It snapped its trunk in half, causing it to fall over.
Crack Crack Crack Boom!
The tree fell and shook the ground.
"I did it!"
Lawrend turned to her with excitement on his face.
"Fufufu. I think it's time."
Instead of congratulating him, Aezel chuckled and gave Lawrend a seductive look.
"W-What?"
Lawrend looked at her in confusion. He was still tired after insta-casting the Shock Arc spell.
"Come here!"
Aezel grabbed Lawrend's arm and pulled him towards her. She pushed her face closer to his. She then ran her index finger down his cheek as she looked him straight in the eye.
"You are gonna be the father of my baby."
Aezel said to him seductively before she moved her mouth and connected it with his.
