Summoned and Unwanted
Chapter 410

410 How an ice witch fights

The closer the five men approached, the more obvious it became if this was planned or not. The men looked more like common thugs rather than adventurers or assassins.

However, regardless of how they looked, in their hands was a sword. No one runs with a sword without the intention of using it.

“Yula. Maid Xu. Sofy.” Vincent called out their names quickly. He noticed Zefine looking at him nervously. “And Zefine. Take the children inside. We will deal with this situation.”

“Leave their safety to us. We will protect them at all costs. ” Eliara and Fliara said.

When the fear of the weak residents getting hurt was gone, Lupa revealed her fangs, Ester took out the dormant Elsir and the mudcrab shield, and Iris placed her hand in her seed pouch to summon a Seed Guardian if necessary.

Lilith lifted Plow and stood behind them. She felt horrible to watch without any good healing spell at her disposal.

Maria became surprised to see how they acted promptly without hesitation when confronted by danger. Vincent controlled the situation like a leader while his wives prepared to fight and have his back.

Maria felt angry after watching the little girls show a frightened expression. She coldly glared at the men running towards them, and the temperature gradually became colder.

“How dare men scare children!” Maria held her wand tightly. “I will freeze you!”

.....

Vincent, Kazumi, and Lilith were surprised to hear this phrase. It was a threat Maria mentioned multiple times, but now it was going to be an action she would take for real.

“Mana gather and freeze, Ice Shard.” Mana gathered and condensed into ice. Maria moved her wand, and the ice shard shot towards the running men. It took the same time as someone taking an arrow from a quiver, pulling the bowstring, and shooting the arrow.

“So you are the demon! The glue gang is not afraid of you, ice demon wench!” The man at the front shouted. He used Wild Blow and blocked the ice projectile.

“Boss! More incoming!” The man behind him warned.

Soon, three men blocked multiple ice projectiles, and the other two locked their blades with Lenn and Renn.

Vincent gave Maria enough time to beat the thugs. He feared the twins would get hurt or worse at this rate. However, as he was about to pass Maria, she stopped him.

“They are mine. I will freeze their tounges for calling me an ice demon wench. ” Maira was pissed. The cold bloodthirsty gaze she had made Vincent decide to let her continue.

“Fine.” Vincent took a deep breath and then shouted, “Lenn. Renn. Bring the soldiers and leave these common thugs to us.”

“Common thugs? We are the glue gang, you noble bastard!” One of the thugs shouted.

Lenn and Renn took a step back and said, “Good luck, weak thugs.” A smirk appeared on their faces before sprinting away.

“Damn, let’s make them pay for the humiliation we suffered before the soldiers come.”

“Hehe, that ice demon wench only knows party tricks.”

“Ye boss. It’s only one man, wenches, little girls, and an ice demon wench. That doggie pet looks weak too.”

“Mana gather and mercilessly freeze, Ice Lance!” Maria upped her spells now that the twins weren’t in the way of her spells. Furthermore, she became furious to be called an ice demon wench.

The five thugs gathered and combined their strength to block a one-meter-long icicle with difficulty. The thugs looked at Maria and saw another ice lance forming. A concerned frown appeared on their faces as mana didn’t seem to be a problem for Maria and one mistake from their teamwork would result a death.

*Whoosh... thud!* Something landed not too far from the thugs. As the dust settled, a man murderously glaring at the thugs appeared.

“How dare you invade my little angel’s home!” It was Leonis, and we were ready to make the five thugs pay.

“Father. It is dangerous!” Lilith worried her father could get hurt. Not only was it one versus five, but her father didn’t look like a person to have fought in the last couple of years.

Maira stopped the ice lance from forming and became more furious for some reason. She glared at Leonis and shouted, “Those trash of men are mine!”

The air became colder around Maria. Soon, Kazumi sensed a considerable amount of mana gathering. Something big was about to happen, and it made Kazumi worry.

“Mana gather and benevolently freeze, Ice Wall! Ice Wall! Ice Wall! Ice Wall!” Maria cast four spells consecutively, causing her arms and legs to tremble slightly.

The ground shook, and a five-meter wall made of ice rose from the ground, one after the other. The four ice walls actually rose at a ninety-degree angle for one another and formed a box with no ceiling or door.

*Sigh* “Why did this have to happen today...” *Sigh* “Why is it had no to freeze someone to death.” Maria’s anger turned to annoyance. She was happy to leave the academy, but now she had to imprison five thugs into an icy prison.

“Teacher Maria. Thank you for capturing them. I don’t know what would’ve...”

*Sigh* “Stop joking. I am not blind.” Maira interrupted Vincent. She looked at Ester, Lupa, Iris, and Lilith next. “You or your women would’ve made the ground red in front of the children. I think you guys need to learn how to control your powers.”

Maria said words they didn’t expect. She gave the impression of being a woman who worries more about children’s wellbeing than adults.

After recalling how Maria wanted to become an orphanage teacher one day, they started to understand Maria’s train of thought better. Adults can die for all she cares, but a child’s smile is sacred.

Leonis approached and swiftly went to check on his daughter. A carriage entered since the gate was open at the same time. It had the Lionheart emblem on it.

The carriage stopped not too far from, and Lilith’s mother appeared. Teresa’s eyes were red, and tears were still on her cheeks. The old maid was helping her descend the steps while holding a wet handkerchief. Probably wet from tears.

“We were coming to pay a visit to our daughter when those twins you have living here stopped our carriage. I flew here using most of my mana after hearing my daughter was in danger.” Leonis honestly mentioned how he came to help while using most of his mana to control Wind Wall and make himself basically fly.

He wasn’t going to be much help if the thugs were assassins.

“But you. Are you another woman of...”

*Sigh* “Damn it. I.Am.Not.His.Woman!” Maria sounded pissed while interrupting Leonis.

“Father, mother, thank you for coming. This is teacher Maria. She was the one to fight instead of us.” Lilith told her parents.

“I understand, my little angel. Shall we have a cup of tea while the soldiers arrive and take care of the intruders?” Teresa said while using the handkerchief to clean her face.

Fortunately, other than worrying about her daughter to tears, Teresa’s complexity didn’t look too bad. Acquiring more medicine because of Iris’s Seed Rebirth improved her condition.

Lilith looked at Vincent and nodded. She silently signaled how she would be taking care of her parents so he didn’t need to worry about them.

“Yes, mother. We can chat while our maid Yula takes care of teacher Maria.” Lilith said. Surprisingly, she didn’t look too nervous about being at the center of attention.

Later, they split into three groups.

Vincent, Leonis, and Sofy went to interrogate the five imprisoned thugs. Lilith, Teresa, Maid Xu, and later Leonis after the situation was handled. The last group compromised of the rest.

*Knock* “Tell me why you attacked us?” Vincent asked while knocking on the ice wall.

“...”

“No answer... ” Leonis became angry. He knocked on the ice wall once or twice before and threatened, “No answer means you have died. That means I can use my wind magic to blend you all into fertilizer thanks to the ice walls protecting me from your vulgar criminal blood.”

[Leonis is giving me bad vibes. He talks as if the five thugs are about to experience a huge blender.]

-I will give it a try with my splendid acting.-

“Oh no! The ice demon wench is approaching! You better confess because I hear horrible things about her once in a while. I...” *Ugh* “So scary... but I have to say it” *GULP* “She likes to torture, MEN alive.” Vincent acted as if Maria was coming and painted her like a cold-blooded torturer.

*Bang* “P-please. W-we can’t take t-th-this co-cold much longer.”

*Bang* “Our si-sixth member lost a gam-gamble. He was o-or-ordered to trick tw-twins and enter t-th-this mansion.”

*Bang* “He came b-back saying how he was h-hu-humiliated after f-failing. H-he later quit our m-mo-money loaning g-gang.”

*Bang* “We c-couldn’t replace him a-an-anywhere. We thought y-you nobles did s-so-something. We c-came to h-hu-humiliate you all f-for our missing m-member and redeem o-our gang’s reputation.”

*Bang* “P-please. No more i-ice demon w-we-wench. Send h-her away and s-save us.”

“Gamble?” Vincent questioned. A possible culprit flashed in his mind. The five thugs couldn’t die from cold before they were thoroughly questioned.

“I need to save them.” Vincent urgently said. Any person they or their missing companion met was crucial evidence.

[Save them? Aren’t we going to wait for the soldiers to come while they repent for their crime?]

“Leave them inside. They should suffer the consequences of frightening my little angel.” Leonis was with Kazumi even though he couldn’t hear her.

However, Vincent didn’t want to start the day with bloodshed since Maira was kind enough to imprison them with no deaths.

“Overheat. ” Vincent said. Later, the warm gauntlets touched the ice wall. The ice wall was compromised of condensed mana, and Overflow was about to have a feast.
