Summoned and Unwanted

279 The blackmail is revealed

[That’s some ballsy claim. But then again, it will be possible after months of Soul Power saved up to upgrade the Soul Dimensional Storage space.]

-Who knows. Maybe I will be able to cast magic like how I cast heal without a spellcaster class.-

“Buy my little angel? I only care about her happiness. Furthermore, my little angel must not latch on to the first man that lies in order to become a noble and steal the family’s fortunes... even if we have none.” Leonis became angry when Vincent was touching his daughter casually when she was wearing a nightgown.

Lilith frowned and responded with a slightly angry tone, “Vincent is the only man who showed kindness, even when we accidentally met. He is the one who saved me from the wardrobe I was locked in. He is the one who gave me a new purpose in life as his woman. He is the one who protected me from the twenty soldiers wanting to silence us.”

Lilith lowered Vincent’s hand and took a few steps to her side. She raised her hands to cover her face and said a dangerous sentence, “Vincent is the one who showed me how a woman should be treated.”

[You’re screwed, hahaha.]

Leonis glared at Vincent with a hateful gaze. He immediately understood what his daughter meant.

“Ahem!” Vincent loudly coughed to garner attention as he began walking towards a long tea table.

“I hope this will show the Lionhearts the sincerity of my wish. I don’t want money. I want Lilith. So I should help my woman’s family in their time in need by offering my possessions.” Vincent raised his hands.

.....

Item after item materialized and fell. The shining green light and the sound of objects of different hardness hitting the surface of the tea table caught everyone’s attention.

The three little girls with Plow locked in the arms of the youngest went to see the attention-grabbing performance. They stood in front of the tea table and clapped as if it was a magic show. Sakura and Sofy also went to see what was happening.

On the other hand, Leonis’s frown soon faded, and his eyes almost popped out of his face. His mouth dropped open when he heard Maid Xu respectfully say, “My lord, this humble maid wants to inform that Vincent killed two gigantic vine-like monsters, and he could also use heal when he saved my life. That is the reason I begged him to save my lady.”

Maid Xu looked at Lilith and continued, “It seems his words of only wanting the noble title just to marry a half noblewoman might be true. She is the red-haired woman who dropped from the ceiling and left in haste for the others.”

Maid Xu then looked at Leonis and ended with, “My lord, I assess Vincent as a man that doesn’t go back on his words. Whatever he says, he would do. The Lionheart family and my lady are free all just for Vincent to become a noble and keep his promise to his woman.”

“Hehehe. My knight in shining armor saved me because he kept his word. Doesn’t it mean his word about me will also be kept and honored?” The blushing Lilith looked at her father for a few seconds and added, “Even if I share Vincent with others that he trusts, at least I know I will not be betrayed again.”

Leonis looked at the long tea table once again. His eyes could now see a mountain of treasure. There were multiple boar pelts, one wind, fire, and earth low-grade Magical Cores, ten gold coins, and a large body of a mudcrab with many legs beside it.

The table was full of pricey items Vincent collected starting from his first kill. The first item was the wind core from Great Gray Wolf.

Leonis walked to the table in a calm a collected manner. Or that’s how he thought he was moving. Opposite to his belief, Leonis’s legs were actually walking quickly, and anyone could see this sight enchanted him.

It looked as if Leonis didn’t see a lot of money these past few years. His words of being poor proved how valid his words were.

[Looks like Leonis is caught in your hook. I hope he accepts and you can marry your harem at last. But I am curious to see what happens at max Soul Synch.]

-Don’t count the chickens yet. Leonis might be a demanding customer...-

“Are these all these gifts then? Will you treat my little angel like a princess, correct? Will you not hurt my little angel, right? ” Leonis changed his tune as if he was desperate for money.

“All of the three questions will be answered with a big yes. I made the tanned pelts with my girls, and the cores were also acquired by killing Magical Beasts with my girls. I almost killed the Mudcrab myself, though.”

“I scammed the Viscount eight gold while the other two gold were found from the deceased Kass’s possessions. Your family sponsored him, so you should know who he is. I was going to give the money to his brother’s family should they need it, but I can repay them another time.” Vincent explained.

Leonis recalled the two twin brothers he had good relations with ten years ago. “I will return the two gold to the family personally and thank them for the job the two brothers did back in the day. Many Lionheart-sponsored men died from the ant invasion. It was difficult to know who lived and who died.” He revealed how the few old men guarding the front gate might be the remaining loyal people sponsored by the Lionhearts.

Leonis soon turned his gaze on the pelts. “How did you make those pelts? Is one of your GIRLS with a crafting class? They cost a lot of silver to buy, but these ones aren’t in the best condition. Nevertheless, they can fetch a good price.” The more Leonis talked, the more interested he became.

“No magic was used. They were tanned by hand.” Vincent replied.

[Do you remember what Ester told us about pelts?]

Kazumi reminded Vincent that crafting classes made leather-based goods because people might depend too much on classes and magic. It was then that the two of them saw Leonis with a puzzled frown.

“I can teach someone loyal how to tan a hide without magic. It can be a part of the appreciation for your daughter’s hand in marriage and a new business opportunity.” Vincent rubbed his hands and raised a friendly smile.

The salesman placed his pitch to buy the parent’s acceptance and a nobility rank. He hoped the Lionhearts could return the former glory they lost. Allys are always welcome.

Lilith noticed her father was on the verge of accepting Vincent’s deal. “Father, please accept the offer. I want to live a happy life with the man I love. ” She begged her father with her blue puppy eyes behind a pair of glasses.

However, before Leonis could answer, an old female soldier with the Hawkins family insignia on her clothes appeared and said, “Good evening, my lord and lady. Our team has healed the Baroness as much as we could with Minor Heal. The Baroness looks better, but she still needs to take the Nine-Headed Hydra Flower’s bloom weekly.”

Vincent noticed the soldier acting strange. He used Inspection on her and found the reason why.

The soldier bowed weakly as if she was about to fall from exhaustion. She left slowly since the message was delivered and the job was done. It seemed using healing spells took a toll on her.

“Father... why did she say my mother is sick? Wasn’t my mother waiting for the commotion to end and come here?” Lilith was so focused on getting approval to be with Vincent that she forgot how her mother didn’t enter and meet after ten years.

“Little angel... we... we were poisoned with a strong black magic curse on the day of your marriage... I can’t lie, and your mother must take one of the nine blooms the Nine-Headed Hydra Flower produces. Your mother needs to take one each week.”

“We tried to find a way to buy the flower... but no one had it nor knew when it could become available. It is a plant that only grows in the Northern Continent... we had no choice but to buy the flower from the Blackhearts with the condition that no one can know what is happening to our family.”

“We... we couldn’t ask for help because they would stop selling us the medicine, and your mother would die. Furthermore, we couldn’t contact our little angel, or they promised to harm you...”

Leonis fell on his knees, his eyes began to tear, and he shortly broke into a fit of tears. Lilith lowered on her knees and embraced her father with a few tears sliding on her cheeks.

[This turned into a depressing situation surprisingly quickly. Now I wonder if we could help in any way.]

-I have away, but I don’t know of its success rate.-

[Is it Iris, perhaps? However, your plan can only work if they have ninety percent of the flower in their possession. Other than that, our remaining method is to make her your retainer.]

Vincent had two solutions to save Lilith’s mother. To have Iris help or to reveal his secret to Lilith’s mother and make her into his retainer.

However, both had their own problems.
