Summoned and Unwanted

468 The most famous couple in the academy

“Vincent. You protected my friend’s daughter, and I am grateful for not making Leonis blame me if anything happened. But at the same time, I can’t place bodyguards around you two, either.”

*Sigh* “That said, you went overboard while protecting the honor of your wife. Another contest could have solved the situation if you didn’t let your anger cloud your judgment.”

“That’s the reason why I got angry. The contest system works, but it doesn’t stop those with a family feud once and for all. The Blackheart family hates us, and this situation was going to repeat multiple times in the upcoming months.” Vincent honestly said while covering what happened as a deterrent to stop Kili Blackheart once and for all.

[I agree with your words. Kilo Blackheart would certainly do this again, and he might even come up with a different excuse now that Lilith became fit and sexy.]

*Sigh* Darwin massaged his temple again and continued, “Three students and their servants stopped attending school temporarily. I had to allow Kilo Blackheart, two of his teammates, and their servants a temporary leave because of what happened.”

Vincent and Lilith became happy, but they had to try their best to keep their smiles from showing.

“I can perceive the two of you holding yourselves from smiling.” *Sigh* “I will continue to do my best to avert troublesome situations as I promised Leonis, but the headmaster’s position isn’t omnipotent. I can only deter smaller incidents.”

Darwin’s words made Vincent, Kazumi, and Lilith grasp the situation more clearly. Darwin protected them from dangerous situations in the academy, but their home was only protected by three soldiers and vice-captain from the kingdom’s authority’s side.

“Vincent. I received reports from my sponsored soldiers about how you have sponsored four soldiers in total. One of which is a vice-captain.” Darwin tapped on the table with his index finger and suggested, “I think more sponsored soldiers patrolling your property will be more essential now after what happened.”

.....

“What does “happened” mean? I only gave them a scare. Right?” Vincent questioned with a frown.

“A simple scare can not describe what you did.” *Sigh*

“I heard from Duke Biro Hawkins how you have a powerful will and can use domination intent. We teach the magic students to use mana for protection against the suppression of intent and warrior classed students to use Energy Flow for protection.”

“Lion’s Roar, or whatever the rumors call it, has caused the three students who harassed your family to suffer from hallucinations and paranoia. Kilo Blackheart might take some time to return, and his family might retaliate. Even after we closed down one of their infamous gambling establishments under another family’s name.”

“As for their servants, they are also suffering from paranoia because they weren’t combat servants. They constantly look behind them as if they are being chased by something.”

Darwin massaged his temple and continued, “I can protect your family here, but I can’t constantly protect your property and family like a personal bodyguard. Thus, I suggest beefing up your defenses to deter dangers befalling your home.”

Vincent, Kazumi, and Lilith became worried about revenge on their home and the residents with the use of assassins, thieves, or a made-up crime. Two had already happened, and the third option was the most problematic and difficult to fight against.

Vincent clenched his fists and said, “That will be my next goal. A home is called home because it is a place to rest and have peace of mind.”

“It is great you are an open-minded individual. ” Darwin said. He stood up and continued, “Your punishment has been decided. How about having an intense physical class experience for a few weeks sound?”

[That’s all?]

“That sounds great.” Vincent grinned.

“Thank you, Lord Darwin, for your kindness. ” Lilith said with a bright smile. She was happy Vincent wasn’t in trouble.

Darwin extended his hand. “I will ask my student Maria to keep an extra eye when she goes out every Sunday.”

Vincent stood up and shook Darwin’s hand. He realized how Maria was acting like a bodyguard before Kazumi told him the same realization.

After thinking about it, Maria was a little evident when she kept waiting for them every Sunday. They only invited her once to their home, but she kept waiting for them and was invited every Sunday.

Another giveaway to her reason was when Maria wanted to take care of the thieves alone and caged them in an ice prison. But after acting as if Maria wanted to blow off steam with the thieves, Vincent and Kazumi let this one slide.

“I will return this favor one day. ” Vincent stated while ending the handshake.

Lilith shook Darwin’s hand next. “I will tell my parents how much lord Darwin is looking out for us.” She said with a smile.

Darwin saw Vincent and Lilith leave. He sat on his comfy chair and massaged his temple again. His forehead was slowly turning red with how many times he rubbed it.

‘Leonis didn’t like Vincent taking his daughter from him. But Leonis doesn’t know how Vincent might be a lion’s cub. Based on Ton’s reports and my problematic student Maria, Vincent is growing at a steady rate without pause.’ Darwin thought before pulling a document in front of him and continuing with his work.

Vincent and Lilith walked hand in hand to the library. There was still time for Maria’s lesson to begin. The more they moved from one hallway to the other, the more students who were lurking around the academy gossiped about the pair.

Rumors about Lilith had become exaggerated because of her new appearance. On the other hand, Vincent’s was about him being a D or C Ranker in strength and how it wasn’t fair to fight against him in the upcoming ranking battles. Other rumors mentioned how Vincent might be a beast in disguise for the monstrous shout they named Lion’s Roar.

Apart from the rumors about Vincent, he was also receiving hate unintentionally. Vincent sometimes noticed male students frowning at him for some reason, but he couldn’t understand why.

The reason happened unintentionally. When female students were unhappy with their fiance’s actions, they would mention how their appointed partner for life by their parents isn’t as good as Vincent because he knows how to care for a woman, unlike them.

Later, after Vincent and Lilith went to the library, the surprised Gusto and Alessia congratulated Lilith for achieving what she wanted to achieve.

They mentioned how even though the cover is changed, the content of a book remains the same. People are like books, they continued, implying that Lilith didn’t change and she was still a book lover.

Time flew quickly in the library, and they went to meet with Nick, Clair, and Jun Ye Rim. The gaze of the students was focused on them while passing them by. Fortunately, Nick’s infamy repelled prolonged stares because of his presence.

Lilith entered the outdoor magic class while following Vincent. She was already feeling anxious from everyone looking at her, and as she unhappily expected, her classmates couldn’t stop looking at her.

The thing Lilith wanted the most caused her to receive more gazes directed at her. Lilith hoped the days would pass quickly and the current hot news of her change would become a thing of the past.

“Isn’t my wife beautiful? Hahaha.” Vincent shamelessly boasted while laughing out loud to bear Lilith’s attention on him. He casually went to grab a large portion of cushions and placed them on the ground in their usual spot.

Lilith blushed when she saw Vincent as if he owned the place and pat the cushions for her to sit beside him. Her heart raced when she overheard a comment from a female classmate saying, “Why did she have to become so pretty all of a sudden?”

*Gulp* Lilith went to sit beside Vincent and nervously looked down as all the class’s attention was on them. Fortunately, the attention repellent Nick went to sit beside Vincent, and the situation calmed.

*Sigh* “Annoying little brats are blocking my way.” Maria angrily said when a group of students were still at the entrance to the outdoor magic class.

[Maria looks pissed this morning. I wonder what happened to her.]

-I think it would be best not to be curious about Maria and her irritability.-

[I... I will try not to be curious.]

Kazumi unenthusiastically said.

*Team Ten Island*

Vincent, Lilith, Jun Ye Rim, and Maria returned to the island.

On the other hand, Nick and Clair went together to the mailroom. It was surprising to hear Clair accept Nick’s company.

Nick couldn’t stop but blush and secretly grin when no one looked at him. He excitedly walked with Clair and thought today was the best day of his life.

Maria went with Lilith to meet up with Ester while Vincent went to find Iris to feed Zero a Seed Guardian’s seed.

Soon, Vincent and Iris stood in front of the tiny three-inch tall Zero. It had grown one inch once again.

Iris grabbed five magic seeds of wildflowers because she was curious to see if Zero could grow a body of flowers and look pretty. She converted them into a Seed Guardian’s seed and placed it in front of Zero.

“Eat or absorb that Zero. It will help you...” Vincent abruptly stopped mid-sentence when Zero obeyed his order without hesitation. As if Zero had become obedient to his orders.

Zero wrapped its tiny vines around the seed. It pulled it and placed it in front of its chest. More tiny vines wrapped around the seed, making Zero look similar to a spider using its spiderweb to store food.
