Summoned and Unwanted

Chapter 403



[I didn’t think Ton was the romantic type.]

“Haha. You took a liking to Vincent as well.” Biro smacked Ton’s back while laughing.

“Is this thread valuable?” Vincent asked. Even Kazumi was curious.

“An ordinary Cefeye’s tail costs about fifty silver. It can snap at the force starting from eighty strength and over. There is an exotic... no, it can be rarity can be considered legendary with how near impossible the acquisition rate is. I believe it can only snap at over two hundred strength.” Biro explained.

.

[Name] Cefeye Tail

[Condition] Damaged

[Grade] Rare

.....

[Description]

A tail unwillingly taken from a female Cefeye.

.

Vincent couldn’t see much information with Inspection. It only said how it is from a female cefeye, and it is damaged, meaning the half a meter thread in his hands could be longer.

Vincent tried to wonder what kind of monster would have a needle-like tail like this. If Biro didn’t mention its toughness, Vincent wouldn’t be able to tell how durable it is.

Vincent removed his rings and connected them with the hard-to-cut thread. He wore the necklace with six rings, and it made him smile at the thought of keeping the rings undamaged.

“As I thought, matrimonial rings look great on one’s neck.” Ton smiled and revealed his necklace. It had two rings on it. One looked like a wedding ring while the other an engagement ring. This proved to Kazumi how Ton was the romanticist kind of guy.

*Smack* “See you next week.” Biro smacked Vincent’s back and went to help Ollie. He was checking the chain of each horned rabbit to prepare them for Class B.

“I hope you don’t neglect training.” Ton placed his hand on Vincent’s shoulder, pressed it gently, and left to help with the chain inspection. After what happened with the snow tiger incident, they were on high alert.

Vincent suddenly felt his strength increase, and his muscles throb as if the muscle density was growing. Soon, a notification window appeared, and a smile followed at the contents of the notification window.

[Promised Quest: Save Okan Villager Zefine from death completed]

[Rewards]

*Reputation – Okan Village +1 (Total 51 rep)

*Reputation – Zefine +150 (Total 150 rep)

*Reputation – Kris +100 (Total 100 rep)

[Optional Rewards]

*Strength stat +3 (Total 22 Strength)

*Agility stat +3 (Total 20 Agility)

*Perception stat +3 (Total 22 Perception)

.

Zefine’s condition turned healthy, and the promised quest requirements were completed even if they were far away. Because of this, Vincent reached the threshold of having the strength, agility, and perception equivalent of two athletic humans in top shape combined.

However, the smiles quickly faded when noticing a mistake in the reputation reward system. A frown appeared on their faces at the thought that it wasn’t a mistake but because the mysterious system worked in mysterious ways.

The reputation system might have concluded that Zefine and her brother weren’t accepted back in the village anymore. Any good or bad reputation Vincent has with the village will not affect the relationship between Zefine and her brother.

If one denies their association with an individual or vice versa, there is a high possibility that the reputation will not be affected by additional multipliers.

“Vincent, are you okay? I saw you training really hard today... but why are you staring at nothing but trees? Are you too hurt to move?” Nick asked while approaching. He became worried Vincent was injured.

“Nah, I am feeling exhausted, that’s all. ” Vincent replied. He closed the reward window and turned around. After hearing how Vincent wasn’t injured, he saw Nick show a proud smirk.

“Great. Vincent, as you did your best, I gave it my all today, hehe.” Nick scratched his nose and bragged, “Teacher Oliveros praised me for making the horned rabbit flinch once before it resumed trying to kill me, hehe.”

“Not bad. ” Vincent didn’t know how else to respond.

To brag how Nick sat in front of an animal and glared while it tried its hardest to kill him sounded a bit absurd to someone like Vincent, who lived in another world. A world where students learn from books instead of facing vicious animals.

Vincent stopped thinking and stretched his body. After Vincent used a towel to clean himself, the two of them went to wait for Lilith and Clara.

Later, the four of them hand the usual boring take a seat and meditate kind of lesson with Maira. However, one thing was different this time, Maria looked a bit impatient to end the lesson, and her eyes went over to Vincent and Lilith from time to time.

Ester was the only person Maira wanted to see.

The lesson ended, and four people teleported individually to the island. Jun Ye Rim rushed to her room while the remaining three were Vincent, Lilith, and Maria. Nick and Clair went separately to the mailroom since Clair was still afraid Nick might suddenly decide to assault her.

*Five minutes later*

Vincent looked at Iris and tried to understand what had happened.

Maira was only interested in Ester, so the two of them locked themselves in the bedroom they converted into a study room. He wondered what Maria had planned to test, try, and document with Ester’s permission.

On the other hand, Lupa went sparring with Vivid for another round while Plow left running while mentioning how she wanted to train too. Lilith wished to continue reading the medical books since the tutor was busy.

Five minutes later, Vincent and Iris were left without anything particular to do.

Vincent decided to use this opportunity to spend some quality time with Iris. The two of them went to the garden with dozens upon dozens of seeds planted and Zero with its legs rooting in the ground.

The two of them sat near Zero and chatted about the days spent on the island. After getting used to the life in their mansion, Iris mentioned that she needed some days to get adjusted again to life without too much interaction. Everyone was busy doing their own thing.

Iris mentioned how she would explore the island and enjoy the sun when she didn’t have much to do. She would also secretly use her Seed Guardian spell.

Vincent and Kazumi became worried about the danger. If the Seed Guardian lost its connection with Iris, then she would be in mortal danger with no other powers to defend herself.

However, Iris reassured how the seed core in Seed Guardian’s head flashes red when it feels the mana becomes insufficient to let it survive with Iris’s mana. She would order the Seed Guardian to remove the seed core and return to the earth.

It was in this manner that Iris used her abilities to improve. Iris also mentioned how she could create a one-meter Seed Guardian with any five random seeds, but the fruit or vegetable would be unripe or disgusting.

“I planted the sage apple trees and created many little plants with bad crops. But in the end, I don’t feel bored because I am living alongside nature.” Iris concluded with a smile on her face. She looked happy with this kind of life.

Vincent placed his arm around Iris and cuddled with her. They looked at nature and enjoyed each other’s company.

About three hours later, Ester nudged Vincent’s shoulder. After falling asleep from the exhausting morning lesson with Biro, he opened his eyes. Furthermore, their relaxing surrounding and Iris placing his head on her lap helped with falling asleep.

“Teacher Maria left. She helped me understand many things with I did the same. I better understand the foundation of meditation and mana assimilation.” Ester explained. She looked at Iris and continued, “Iris, I apologize for not inviting you. I know how much you want to improve.”

“I don’t mind, sister. I got to spend time with my chosen one.” Iris responded.

Vincent got up and help Iris stand up after her legs became numb.

“There is no need to hurry because Maria has four more months to tutor everyone. ” Vincent said. He looked at Iris and continued, “The day here can be long and boring alone, so why don’t the two of you train and help each other?”

“Yes. I would love to. I can show you a new meditation pose Maria taught me.” Ester said.

“I would like that if I don’t ruin your training. ” Iris said.

Iris and Ester looked at each other. Both nodded and smiled at each other.

*Cough* “Ester, dear. Why don’t you show this pose to all your family?” Vincent asked. He became interested in practicing the new meditation pose while Kazumi remained quiet after spying on Ester from time to time. However, she was still a little curious to see what she missed.

That evening, Ester showed Vincent, Iris, and Lilith the good meditation form, which was quite similar to Melissa, yet it appeared to be an improved version Maira modified herself.

Vincent felt relaxed much faster than in his previous pose. Vincent felt in harmony with his surroundings, and his body assimilated the mana around him more naturally.

It showed how Maria actually had a knack for teaching. Only her personality impaired Maira from being a fantastic teacher.

On the other hand, Lupa tried to imitate them, but Lupa simply sat with her eyes closed and her legs crossed because she didn’t have mana. Lupa became grumpy when Plow smirked at her futile attempt.
