Summoned and Unwanted-Chapter 589

589 Anger overcomes fear and doubt

Ester rushed in front of Lupa to block her from attacking the two men, who were possibly nobles. “Leave us alone. We are already taken.” She said while showing a bothered expression.

*Sigh* Lilith shook her head after hearing Lupa show no restraints like usual. She also felt Ester couldn’t solve this matter by telling the two men to leave peacefully. 𝒇𝗿𝙚ℯ𝑤ℯ𝑏𝒏𝑜ѵe𝙡.c𝐨ｍ

Lilith believed she was an expert when it came to flirting in public from the thousands of romance books she read. She understood the only way to shoo the two men was to use authority to scare them away instead of force.

Lilith gulped and clenched her fists to muster her courage. She had heard from Vincent how he tried to use the knowledge he read in books when meeting Ester just to epically fail. It was then Vincent learned real life was far different than a predetermined event written in a book.

Lilith started walking with her mind full of thoughts about what she could do and say. However, the closer Lilith approached the two men, the more disgusted she felt at their lustful gaze landing on her body.

Lilith stopped beside Ester, and her mind became filled with thoughts of slapping their faces. She was unknowingly becoming very angry, and her courage to speak her mind was stronger.

“How dare you look at a Baroness like that! Leave us before I call the soldiers to pluck your eyes out. I might demand to the soldiers to feed you your eyes back with my authority as a ranking noble. Maybe then you could regrow a new pair of eyes and look at a woman without that disgusting gaze.” She said with an angered, authoritative tone.

However, that was not all. Lilith was becoming angrier by the second the treatment she and the other were receiving, that bloodlust seeped from her body.

Lilith’s mesmerizing blue eyes became dull, like an abyss born from years of seeing hell. Her hands relaxed, and her lips formed a menacing smile. Lilith looked like a person who had experienced hell, and she was ready to do anything, even murder, to get what she wanted.

.....

“Women have hands and feet like men. We can beat the shit out of you with our feet. We can kill you with our hands. If the witnesses are dead, a Baroness’s words will naturally become the truth. Women are only cute for their man and no one else.” Lilith said with a vicious authoritative tone as if she was a different person.

The two men unconsciously took a step back after becoming afraid of the beautiful woman in front of them. The thought of talking about murder in broad daylight as if it was nothing sent a chill down their spines.

The two men moved their gazes on the Ester, Lupa, Iris, and Jun Ye rim. They understood the four other women could snap like Lilith and threaten them with their lives.

*Cough* “Look at the time. We better leave, or we will miss lunch.”

*Cough* “Yeah, my good friend. Let’s leave these good ladies alone and go to eat. My stomach is about to grumble any second now.”

And like that, the two men left Ester, Lupa, Iris, Lilith, Jun Ye Rim, and Plow alone in a hurry.

Lilith let out a long relaxing sigh, and her angered expression relaxed. She turned around and faced four women and a little fox staring at her. It was easy to figure out they were greatly astonished Lilith had a villainous side.

“Did... did I do well to take care of the situation?” Lilith said while her body shivered for a few seconds as if she had used all her strength to act crazy and threaten the two men.

However, the reception was opposite to what Lilith expected. Instead of becoming wary of Lilith joining the dark side, they smiled and started congratulating her.

“Lilith, you were great! I didn’t think you could overcome your anxiety and panic attack problems this quickly. Congratulations on becoming a badass.” Ester said before giving Lilith a congratulatory hug.

“Thank you, but I was angry at their forced advances and their gaze on us. I also didn’t want this situation to escalate, so I let go of any thoughts and threatened them.” Lilith embarrassingly scratched her cheek and continued, “I let my anger guide me, and it somehow worked. Now I feel better knowing that I protected everyone for once.”

“Sister Lilith was like a predator.” Lupa hugged Lilith and continued, “I liked how dangerous you smelled, hehe.”

“T... thanks, I guess...” Lilith responded after Lupa’s compliment didn’t sound like a good one.

“Thank you for defending us. You were cool.” Said Iris with a faint blush on her cheeks. It was obvious Iris saw Lilith as an icon to follow and become courageous like her.

“Plow thinks Lilith Lilith was cool too.” *Pho* Plow said while jumping happily.

Jun Ye Rim looked at Lilith. She averted her gaze when their eyes met. “I could have defended myself. But you shooed them away before I had the chance. That’s all.”

“I will leave the next encounter to you then, hehe.” Lilith joked.

“W-w-wait... I didn’t mean it like that... I-I can only defend myself... t-that’s all. T-two men were a lot for me.” The nervously stuttering Jun Ye Rim responded, causing the others to giggle at Jun Ye Rim eating her own words.

After the situation was resolved, the group of women and the little fox continued their walk in the noble district. However, unlike the middle class and lower class districts, there were barely any shops, and the ones they found had a guard stationed in front of the door.

While passing a high-class restaurant, Lupa and Plow became captivated by the smell coming from the restaurant. Their nose couldn’t stop twitching excitedly.

Lilith agreed with the others to check the restaurant, yet she didn’t know about the pricing of the food. After the last time, she visited a high-class restaurant was more than ten years ago, and her parents paid the bill. She only chose the food and barely looked at the price.

In fact, looking at the price and taking a long time to decide would make the people start judging and glancing as if they were low-ranked nobles. In other words, it would bring shame to take a long time to order.

While they approached the high-class restaurant, Lilith suggested asking the guard for the menu. The guard stopped them promptly and asked for identification.

“Here is mine. ” Lilith said while showing her golden identity card.

“One moment Baroness Lilith Lionheart. I will bring a menu immediately.” The guard said respectfully.

Soon, the eyes of Ester, Lilith, and Jun Ye Rim almost popped out as they saw the prices. Spending ten to fourthy silver coins on food almost made them think it was a joke. However, that wasn’t all. Every table will have to offer tips to the waiters, cooks, and guards, a few silver coins.

*Cough* “Thank you. W-we will visit later.” Lilith lied while nervously stuttering. She gave the menu to the guard, and they left.

Later, Ester and Lilith explained the price to the illiterate Lupa, Iris, and Plow by comparing the food to the amount of meat or vegetables they could buy with the same amount of money spent.

When Lupa, Iris, and Plow realized how it was highway robbery, and could be considered criminal, they understood why Ester, Lilith, and Jun Ye Rim looked pale while reading the prices on the menu.

“Don’t worry. I have a few sandwiches Clara made in my bag of holding. How about we find a good spot to eat?” Ester suggested when their morale was down.

“How about we go to the drink shop near the south district fountain?” Lilith suggested.

“Okay.” Everyone agreed to go to the south district fountain.

Later, after passing by many streets and attracting the attention of everyone by their beauty and the cute little fox walking beside them, they arrived at their destination.

“Find a table and prepare enough chairs for us. Iris and I will buy us a warm cup of hot chocolate. Ohh, and don’t worry, I will pay with my money.” Lilith said.

Lilith and Iris went to buy drinks while the others decided where to sit and brought enough chairs to sit on. Ester made sure Lupa and Plow would play nice and not cause trouble while talking to Jun Ye Rim to help her become used to their company.

“Jun Ye Rim, did you come here before?” Ester asked.

“No.” She answered without hesitation.

“The fountain was a nice view in the summer, but now it is frozen. It is less interesting than when it is flowing with water.”

“It was nice? But I wasn’t allowed to drink from the fountain.”

*Sigh* Ester shook her head. “You would get sick after drinking the water and most like arrested. Did you forget what happened to teacher Maira? She was arrested for freezing the water in the summer.”

“Ahh... okay...” Lupa responded with her ears down.

“Plow does not like the fountain.” *Pho*

“Why is that?” Ester curiously asked.

“It brings Plow bad memories.” *Pho*

Ester and Lupa understood the reason why. Plow had seen the fountain many times before Vincent had bought her.

Jun Ye Rim looked at Ester and asked, “Can I know why?”

“Plow was being sold here. She was mistreated for not being born normal and remained caged for a long time because no one wanted her. But when we saw Plow, Vincent bought her while haggling to make the familiar seller feel the pain of losing money.”
