Summoned and Unwanted

569 The maid who seeks approval

Vincent got up and walked down the small hill. “So, what do you girls think?” He asked with an expressive grin. It was apparent he was still excited about the whole process and wanted to know what was on their minds.

“It is interesting. This place now feels perfect for a private date with our souls instead of our bodies.” Ester said while being greeted by Freerie fluttering their wings around her.

“I can meet my pup and my mate without many problems now.” Lupa wagged her tail while looking at Wolfie. ” Hehe, we can have a nice date together.”

“The small hill looks beautiful, and the green color makes the crystals look like a grassy hill. I love this place more, and I would love to have a date here too. ” Iris complemented how greener the environment had become.

“This is more romantic than I ever expected. Now I can feel like a real queen in our future dates here, hehehe.” Lilith seductively giggled.

The curious Plow didn’t stay still. While Ester, Lupa, Iris, and Lilith were answering what they thought about the different Soul Domain, Plow sneakily went to sit on the throne.

“Plow loves this seat. It feels like Vincent Vincent, but it is very relaxing too. It is a better bed.” *Pho ?*

“...” Vincent was left out of words. He blankly stared at Ester, Lupa, Iris, and Lilith as they curiously walked up the small hill like tourists. Then they took turns placing their bottoms on the throne and showing delighted expressions.

‘And here I thought my girls were going to be amazed and congratulate me for becoming stronger... instead, my Soul Domain might have become a secret dating spot. Even the throne has caught their attention more than me.’ Vincent thought while sighing and shaking his head.

.....

[What’s wrong, Vincent?]

“I am a little envious of the throne. It is getting all the attention while I am left here.” Vincent honestly answered.

[Then I will join the girls while you skulk, hahaha.] Kazumi joked before joining the girls with beaming smiles as they reviewed the comfy throne.

Later, the time to depart arrived as the ten-minute visitation passed quickly for everyone except the unhappy Vincent.

Vincent soon opened his eyes, and everyone in the bedroom looked at him with sparkling eyes. ‘Let me guess. I bet they want to visit my Soul Domain often.’ He quickly guessed.

“What is on your minds?” Vincent asked. He felt nervous to hear a response because he knew it wasn’t going to be something he was going to like.

“Who will have a date with you first?” Ester, Lupa, Iris, and Lilith asked with a sly grin.

Vincent was stuck in a dilemma because he didn’t know what the right answer was.

Vincent couldn’t understand if they were teasing him or stating their desire for the secret date, which would last ten seconds of living world time or ten minutes for the two of them.

[The one who loves me the most.] Kazumi slyly suggested, hoping to make the troubled Vincent repeat after her.

“The one who loves me the most. ” Vincent repeated after Kazumi.

“N-no! That is not what I wanted to say! Kazumi put words in my mouth. I...”

Lilith interrupted Vincent by embracing him all of a sudden. “Hehe. I want to play that kind of game right now, my king. Hehe. Maybe we can have part two tomorrow.”
Lupa loved the idea and proclaimed, “I am best girl Lupa. I will show my mate today and tomorrow how much I love my mate.”

Lilith pushed Vincent onto the bed. Vincent moved his gaze and saw Ester, Lupa, and Iris approach the bed.

*Gulp* “Wait, girls! Let’s be reasonable for a second. There is no need to compete...”

*Day 181 – 5 December – Sunday*

Vincent woke up in the morning. He looked to his sides, but no one was beside him. He moved his belly, but he couldn’t feel the weight of Plow either.

“I can’t feel Kazumi in my Soul Domain either. I guess everyone is preparing to leave early. ” Vincent said with a raspy parched voice.

Vincent rolled out of bed and stretched his back. He headed over to the kitchen and heard many voices and munching of food. He said, “Good morning.” and went to drink a cup of water.



???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

Vincent saw Kazumi floating beside Jun Ye Rim while eating breakfast. On the other hand, Nick, Clair, Vivid, and Pussy were still on Paradise Island since the chances of being challenged were slim to none.

Later, after eating breakfast together, they left to meet with Maria and Tiffi. Afterward, they met with Sofy, and after waiting for the horses to rest, they departed for the mansion.

Vincent turned his head and looked at the front window. He saw Jun Ye Rim sitting in the corner of the carriage while looking at the window to her side.

‘Jun Ye Rim still hasn’t responded to the proposal. Should I have made it sound less official? She looks a bit distant as if she is constantly thinking.’ Vincent pondered.

“Is there something the matter Vincent?” Asked Sofy.

Vincent looked at Sofy and asked, “Sofy... do you know what happened this week?”

“Yes, Head Maid Xu told me. Are we in a lot of trouble now?”

“Probably. That’s why I offered Jun Ye Rim a marriage of convenience.”

Sofy suddenly looked at Vincent and exclaimed, “What!”

“Eyes on the road, please.”

*Sigh* Sofy stopped looking at Vincent. She became grumpy and asked, “And when will it be my turn? I thought you disliked elves, but now you want to get it on with a different elf than me. I am disappointed.”

[Hahaha. It looks like someone has more women problems than he can handle.] Kazumi teased.

*Woof* [My mate. What does “get it on” mean?]

“Ahem!” Vincent cleared his throat and said to change the subject, “Sofy, can I ask for a small favor?”

“Sure. Anything for a ~favor~.”

“Yesterday, I agreed with Ester, Lupa, Iris, and Lilith to surprise Sakura and spend some in my Pocket Cabin. I was going to place it next to the workshop...”

“So the favor is to keep the area clear?” Asked Sofy with a sly gaze.

“Yes.”

“Leave it to me. I will make sure no one disturbs your Sunday time together.”

Kazumi noticed a sly tone in Sofy’s voice. She wondered if Sofy considered herself as one of the people who should not disturb them.

After reaching around halfway to the mansion, Sofy asked, “If Jun Ye Rim was asked to become your wife, then can I become your mistress?”

[Haha. Sofy is really interested in the matter with you know who, hehe.] Kazumi said while avoiding Jun Ye Rim’s name since she could hear her clearly.

*Cough, cough, cough* Vincent coughed after being taken by surprise. He looked at Sofy, and she looked back at him with a seductive smile.

“If the others agree, I will think about it.” Vincent let his wives handle Sofy now. “Do you agree?”

Sofy held the reins with one hand as the three horses were under her perfect command. Her hand reached Lupa’s back, and she brushed her fur skilfully.

“I think best girl Lupa will not mind a girl like me. I am a servant, after all.” Sofy immediately started to win over Vincent’s wives.

*Woof* [I don’t mind...]

“Lupa said she will think hard about it.” Vincent interrupted Lupa promptly.

“Hehe.” Sofy seductively giggled while holding the reins with both hands. It was obvious Sofy felt the first acceptance was almost in the bag.

*Woof?* [I said that?] Lupa tilted her head in confusion.

‘I think Sofy might be a hidden boss. She can probably conquer my wives’ favor faster than eating a meal...’ Vincent was starting to regret this decision.

*Emerald Lionheart Mansion*

The carriage finally arrived. Vincent greeted the twins while they opened the gates, and he later jumped down after the carriage arrived in front of the mansion.

Vincent looked at Sofy, and her sly gaze and seductive grin were an obvious tell she was up for the challenge.

Vincent sighed and turned around. He saw Maid Xu opening the entrance door and rushing to check on Lilith. A few moments later, he saw her look pleased to see Lilith unharmed and acting normally.

Maid Xu looked at Vincent with a displeased expression. There was no need to mention what was on her mind because Vincent could tell Maid Xu was unhappy for putting Lilith in harm’s way.

Lilith noticed Miad Xu stare daggers at Vincent. “Please don’t be angry at Vincent. I agree he needed to warn them or anyone nearby not to do such things.” She requested, hoping to cease the hostilities.

“I... I understand.” Maid Xu looked at the last person exiting the carriage. “Shall I prepare Sunday bingo? I hope my lady can relax and leave the matter in the hands of the person who started all of this trouble.”

“It is a brilliant idea for the others, but Vincent, my sisters, and I have other plans today. You can do the fun event without us.”

“Other plans? Shall I tell Maid Yula to prepare a packed lunch?”

Lilith shook her head with a delighted smile. “No need. Vincent is going to summon the building he keeps near the workshop, and we are going to spend some time together there.”

“...” Maid Xu didn’t know how to respond. Only her blank stare could show how much she was taken by surprise.

Sakura appeared from the corner of the mansion. The closer she approached, the more she started to wonder why Ester, Iris, Lilith, and Lupa vigorously wagging her tail were looking at her.
