Summoned and Unwanted

554 Violence felt natural

Lilith suddenly recalled their current good, happy and peaceful life. The rush of anger subsided when she didn’t want to lose this kind of enjoyable life.

“They need to pay in another way. Please, Vincent, let the academy take care of the situation for us. I don’t think those five will take a slap on the wrist for what they did.”

However, Vincent didn’t heed Lilith’s plea. Lilith turned to Maria for help next. “Please stop, Vincent.” She requested.

*Tsk, tsk, tsk* “As long as Vincent doesn’t kill them, he can beat the shit out of them. Noble brats need to learn that rules are for all living beings. Having money and power will not exempt them from punishment.” Maria declined, and her words made the students learn how much Maria didn’t care about the students of the academy and how much she hated nobles.

Lilith rushed to Vincent. She became horrified to see the second aggressor with his chest carved. She hugged Vincent from behind and begged him to stop.

“No one touches my people. I will not let anyone suffer.” Said Vincent in a menacing voice while carving the third aggressor.

Lilith kept holding Vincent. She hoped the warmth of her body touching his back could stop his behavior.

Regardless, Vincent crouched and continued carving an agonizing masterpiece while Lilith hugged his back even when her knees touching the small layer of snow was freezing her.

[Notice]

[Blessed Retainer Lilith Lionheart has reached Soul Synch 50%]

[A new power has been born from the compatibility of the two connected souls.]

[The Host has acquired the Trait: Vitality.]

[Vitality description.]

[The body is blessed to recover quicker from injuries, ailments, and exhaustion.]

[Vitality] passively boosts the recovery rate from injuries by 0.5% per minute.]

[Vitality] passively boosts the recovery rate from ailments by 0.5% per minute.]

[Vitality] passively boosts the recovery rate of stamina by 1% per minute.]

.

The notification appearing in front of Vincent promptly closed as it interfered with his masterpiece. As if his current state affected by the mutation had triggered the ailment part of the Vitality trait, his mind felt slightly clearer after a minute passed.
However, this wasn’t enough. A trait with a slow recovery similar to Minor Regen could only help after being active for a long time. But from the beginning to save Jun Ye Rim up until now, only seven minutes or so had passed.

Jun Ye Rim asked Elias to help her move. Inside her was an exhausted Kazumi recuperating in her Soul Domain after using Soul Invite multiple times.

Jun Ye Rim agreed with Kazumi that she had to try to stop Vincent from making the situation worse than it was. If Lilith couldn’t stop him, the victim needed to try next.

Jun Ye Rim was helped to approach Vincent with the help of the tired Elias. Approaching Vincent made his body act as if he was approaching a vicious wild beast. The pressure of malice was making his body heavy, yet his will to move forward allowed his legs to obey his demands.

“Vincent. Do. Not. Taint. Your. Hands. With. Their. Filthy. Blood.” Jun Ye Rim said with a wavering voice.

Jun Ye Rim looked at the five who tried to do her harm, and it only took a few seconds to understand how much important she was to Vincent. This was the first time someone got angry when she was suffering from the time of leaving her land and family behind.

Jun Ye Rim didn’t feel alone anymore, yet the disturbing view was making her feel disgusted. A tear fell from her eyes, and it landed on the snow.

Vincent stopped and turned his head. He looked at the exact location where the tear fell. “I understand.” He said when his mind was slightly clearer because of the Vitality trait and Jun Ye Rim’s tear.

Vincent wasn’t going to let the job unfinished because his rage wasn’t going to subside before he completed the masterpiece. He swiftly slashed the upper body of the remaining two and carved in the shortest time and with the least suffering possible.

Vincent showed mercy and stopped after finishing. The pressure of his intent subsided.

Before Vincent were the five aggressors on the ground with the letter each, looking from left to right, one could spell the word B I T C H carved on their chests.

Biro, Ton, Ollie, and Nick arrived along with a horde of students. They saw multiple students on their knees, a student knocked out a little further than them, and a teacher being helped to stand up.

Only one man stood without any difficulties. It was easy to guess he was the perpetrator. Not to mention a woman was hugging him from behind as if implying she was trying to stop. In front of him lay five students on the ground with bloody red snow underneath them.

“What happened here?” Asked Biro with an authoritative tone.

*Sigh* “Some students decided that molesting a student was not a crime.” Maria pointed with her head at Jun Ye Rim. “At least some have the balls to protect their team members instead of begging for help from their parents.”

Everyone looked at Jun Ye Rim. They looked at her condition. Her torn uniform and emotionally expressed by her trembling hands, body, and exhausted gaze painted the picture of someone who was or is about to be molested.

The newly arrived people could tell Jun Ye Rim had suffered a lot, or she was the best actor they had ever seen in their lives.

Biro looked at the broken window and the broken wall as if someone had jumped. The elven rule forced an elf to only have one partner in their lives, or they would not be able to reincarnate. Putting one plus one together, Biro quickly grasped what might have happened.

“Did she jump to her death because she didn’t want to be forced to become their woman? Did Vincent manage to catch her in time?” Questioned Biro, causing the newly arriving people to comprehend the situation better.

“That freak attacked me! He needs to be expelled!” Said the teacher Vincent had knocked out of his way previously.

Vincent looked at the teacher. He exhaled a puff of green smoke while thinking happy thoughts. Shortly he could hear Kazumi speaking to him from Jun Ye Rim’s body. Overheat deactivated a moment later.

[Vincent! You can finally hear me! I hate it when your soul becomes so unstable that it interferes with our telepathic communication.]



[We are in big trouble because of your stunt. I hope we will not end in prison. Additionally, I need a lot of rest. I can’t use my skills for the time being.]

-I could see what I was doing, and I controlled my body.-

[Then why do you make this situation worse?]

-I felt morally pleased to inflict judgment on them. I felt it was natural to do so.-

[Then how did you regain your sanity? Was it because of Lilith’s Soul Synch reaching the next level?]

-I don’t know, but only after Lilith hugged me did I somehow start to doubt my actions. Hearing Jun Ye Rim’s tears fall made me understand I was taking it too far.-

[Yet you still finished carving B I T C H on their upper body.]

-I’m not particularly eager to give preferential treatment.-

[Sigh. I hope Lilith’s new trait can help you suppress the mutation from making you think violence is something natural to do.]

-Yeah...-

Vincent smiled warmly and touched Lilith’s hands. “I am fine now. Please take care of Jun Ye Rim. Elias is having difficulty standing.”

Lilith became happy to hear Vincent’s warm voice again. She released her hands and noticed a chair next to the hold in the wall. She quickly went to bring it to Jun Ye Rim and helped her sit down.

Vincent looked at the injured teacher next. “You defended criminals and tried to make it seem as if I have no reason to be angry.”

“Don’t slander me!” The teacher rebutted.

“Slander? Weren’t you the one who told me there were no witnesses other than those involved? Not to mention having the audacity to say I could have planned this to seek revenge.”

“Don’t try to make it...”

“You better watch your words. You are speaking to Baron Vincent Lionheart. He isn’t an ordinary student. His words have as much value as yours.” Warned Biro while revealing the rumors about Vincent possibly becoming a Baron were, in fact, true.

The medical team arrived. They saw the five aggressors with a letter carved on their chests. When they approached to offer medical assistance, they recognized the five.

“Are they going to get killed next?” One of the medical staff commented. The first time was a heavy blow to their stomach, and now their upper body had a letter carved on it. Some say the third try is the charm, which possibly means death in this situation.

“Take care of her first.” Demanded Vincent with a frown.

“These five are...”

“They are criminals. Before they molested her, she jumped from the fourth floor because sometimes, death is a quick escape from the disgusting people around us.” Interrupted Vincent.

“Aren’t you a criminal too?” Another medical staff member questioned.

“Could someone take care of the female victim? Those five aren’t going to die, so take care of everyone equally.” Ordered Biro with an authoritative tone.

The medical staff obeyed his order, and two female members went to check on Jun Ye Rim. After a while, they asked Jun Ye Rim to go with them to the infirmary.
