Summoned and Unwanted

Chapter 331

331 A day relaxing under a tree

Plow saw the kids looking at Lupa with a beaming smile.* Pho* Plow barked cutely to attract attention.

‘Bad wolf will not beat Plow.’ Plow thought.

Vincent lowered on his knee and brushed Lupa’s smooth fur. “I am ready. What does best girl Lupa wish to do?” He asked.

Lupa turned her gaze on Plow. The eyes of both attention competitors soon met. Soon, Lupa thought of a date she would love, and Plow would become jealous of.

[We don’t need to go out today. My mate can do this for me.] Lupa then proceeded by telling Vincent about what she considered a good day is. It was mainly to spend a day petting and cuddling with Lupa in her white wolf form in an open area for Plow to peek at them from time to time.

[My, my. Lupa might make Plow cry. I guess you will have to spend some time with Plow as well at this rate. Her tiny cute blue cheeks might burst today from all the pouting she might do.] Kazumi felt a little bad for Plow whenever the spoiled cute little fox looked unhappy.

-Thankfully, only you and I can hear Lupa. I bet Ester would pull her ear if she was here and heard Lupa say this request.-

“Yula, we do not need any lunch because we decided to say here today. Lupa wants to spend a relaxing day.” Vincent got up and continued, “Maid Xu, look for me when the builders are finished or about to leave. I need to thank them for fixing the mansion with great care.”

Maid Xu stared at Vincent as if he said something surprising.

.....

“My lady also requested me to inform her about the Sunrise construction workers leaving the premises. My lady wants to thank them for their great work, but she never mentioned telling you. My lady didn’t want to take Lupa’s precious time, or so she said.” Maid Xu nodded at Vincent and continued, “Leave all matters in my hand. I will ask them to wait while I call for you too.”

“Thanks.” Vincent turned around and left with Lupa.

[My mate, I wanted to go out, find a bad human and fight like yesterday, but Lupa is best girl. Best girls treat their mate with care. Follow me, my mate.] Lupa hastened her pace and led the way outside the mansion.

Lupa wanted to know when Iris was going to plant the Golden Dew Lily, so she led Vincent to spend some time near the small-scale farm and see the seed of her fur salvation being planted.

“How thoughtful of you.” Vincent followed Lupa to an area in the shade under a tree. He sat on the grass and leaned his back against the tree. Lupa didn’t take too long to lean half of her body on his lap.

Vincent smiled and brushed her smooth white fur. It was a pleasant and comfortable feeling to do once in a while.

“I thought you, out of all my girls, would talk a lot about what happened yesterday. What did Iris say for you to let it be?” Vincent felt curious about why the subject was never mentioned at the dinner table or afterward.

[I like the idea of a fight date as sister Iris had, but this is also nice. I missed this feeling. Just my mate and I under a tree like before. I also heard about how my mate tried to sell sister Iris for a price the gods can’t afford or something like that. I saw Lilith stare at Iris and grinned after Iris finished.]

[What is my price, my mate?] Lupa asked while wagging her tail faster in excitement.

[I wonder what the answer will be, my mate, hehe. Best girl Lupa will wait for my mate to show me how much I am worth in bed, hehe.] Kazumi slyly said after a long time of silence.

‘Doesn’t Kazumi know Lupa doesn’t giggle this much?’ Yet Vincent didn’t want to spoil her fun.

“Hmmm... now this is a tricky question.” Vincent rubbed his chin and acted distressed.

Lupa raised her head and licked his right arm.

“Oh, is my wolf trying to bribe me?” Vincent smirked. He lowered both hands and tussled her fur up and down.

“Five cities as well. But I might accept the bribe and add an extra garden. ” Vincent teased Lupa, yet his words caused her tail to wag was like a fan. The cool breeze in the summer was a thing he missed from Earth.

Lupa stood up and licked his face like there was no tomorrow. She acted like an animal that didn’t see its owner in a long time.

*Cough* “I am bought.” *Cough* “rest now or I.” *cough* “change my mind.” Vincent couldn’t breathe, so he used what Lupa wanted against her.

Lupa stopped and leaned on his lap in the blink of an eye. It was a funny sight watching Lupa obey immediately and her tail lower after hearing the light threat.

Vincent, Lupa, and the observer Kazumi spent a long time like this. Time passed quickly. It wasn’t easy to keep track of time as the distant bell toll was slowly overlooked.

Iris appeared alone. Vincent waved at Iris after he noticed her. Then he saw Plow following Iris to help. Plow’s envious glances made Vincent smirk, and Lupa wagged her tail proudly.

Iris and Plow planted some seeds and approached Vincent and Lupa, glancing at Plow proudly for having Vincent all to herself.

“Sorry to bother your date...” Iris appeared to be a little nervous about taking some of Lupa’s alone time with Vincent. “Can my chosen one and sister watch over me? I want to turn two apples into seeds.”

[This is exciting. I hope our plan works, and we can one day have a mana growth sage apple orchard in the garden.] Kazumi sounded excited at the possible future.

“Sure. We will protect you if anything happens.” Vincent, however, remained where he was and continued, “We trust Iris will succeed.”

Iris took out five seeds from a green pouch with a leaf design embroidery on it. It was obvious Maid Xu wanted to make Iris experience both civilized and goblin life at the same time.

“Seed Guardian. Sprout!” Iris threw the seeds. The seeds shone and quickly fused into one. As the enlarged seed touched the soil’s surface, the seed dug itself, and vines soon formed a towering seven-foot Seed Guardian.

Vincent, Lupa, and Kazumi noticed the core glowing in a friendly color. On the other hand, Plow became afraid and ironically hid behind the relaxed Lupa.

Iris didn’t display fear. She extended her hand and asked, “May I have the fruit? You can return to the Earth after showing your generosity.”

The Seed Guardian lowered down on its knee and plucked the Sage Apple from the vine ribcage in its chest. Then it pulled out the seed core from its head and placed it in Iris’s hands before the vine body withered and shattered.

Iris looked tired, but she still said, “I can do one more.” before repeating the same process and holding two apples in her hands. Iris gave them to Vincent and asked if the apples were as he wanted.

.

[Name] Sage Apple

[Condition] Fresh

[Grade] Exotic

[Description]

A Sage Apple only grows on a Sage Apple Tree and only if it absorbs enough mana as nutrients. Sage Apple Tree without dense mana will not flourish and will wither instead.

[Effect]

*Mana Regen (5:00)

*Mana Increase +1

.

“Great! These are Sage Apples! ” Vincent exclaimed.

Lupa looked at the apples and recalled how she found the Sage Apples after deciding to train. ‘We can grow more life-saving apples.’ She thought while wagging her tail.

Iris touched the apples and turned them into seeds. Vincent focused his gaze once again and raised a smile.

.

[Name] Sage Apple Tree Magic Seed

[Condition] Enchanted Lasting Freshness

[Grade] Exotic

[Description]

A seed given the chance of rebirth by a Druid’s touch and became a Magic Seed with the ability to grow in any kind of soil or shallow water.

[Maturity]

*Two thousand days to mature in soil or shallow water

.

“Two thousand days so about...”

[Five to six years of unassisted growth time. It looks like this is going to be a long goal... heh...] Kazumi sighed after she hoped the tree would grow faster since it uses mana as nutrients.

“More than five years if your skills and talents do not assist them. ” Vincent informed.

Lupa stopped wagging her tail excitedly and looked disappointed. On the other hand, Iris became excited. She revealed a beaming smile, took the seeds, and went to plant them not too far yet not too close to each other.

Not long after, Iris and Plow left. Vincent and Lupa could continue enjoying a day lazying and relaxing under a tree in the shade.

However, the peace and tranquility lasted less than an hour.

Tula holding Plow, who was sneaking glances at Lupa, and the five children holding Tusk and Nix visited them.

Plow glanced at Lupa and acted as if she didn’t lose her sleeping place to Lupa yet.

While the children and Tula were having fun near Vincent under the shade of the tree, Lupa looked triumphantly at Plow while she was secretly glancing at her.

Plow would puff her cheeks whenever their eyes met, and Tula would have fun poking her cute blue cheeks.

“Tusk and Nix look older the more I see them. ” Vincent said after he saw the cheerful group leave with Plow sneaking glances as she left.
