723 The Lionheart participating team meets
âAwa Awa can make a horsie appear and become very very strong.â *Pho* Plow revealed, causing Lupa to eye Awa as her next potential sparring partner.
Awa slightly blushed when all eye in the room was on her yet again. She was at the center of attention. It made her feel being in a room with people ready to interrogate her for information.
As Awa expected, she was being asked questions. The first one the ask a question was none other than the battle-loving wolf girl, Lupa.
âTell me! Tell me! How strong are you? Can we spar?â Lupa asked.
*Sigh* Ester facepalmed. âYou havenât properly introduced yourself, and you wish to fight Awa.â
*Clap* âThat is a good idea since no one else is coming.â Lilith added after clapping once to gather attention to her words.
Lupa raised her hand promptly. âI am Lupa. I am my mateâs right-hand girl and the number one wife. I am good with my claws. Good at fighting. Good at cutting things.â
âHehe.â Ester giggled. She looked at Awa and introduced herself. âI am Ester. I can use sigil magic, and I can dance well. I can fight with my dance in case of self-defense too.â
âI am Lilith. I am a healer, but...â Lilith moved her gaze onto Iris. âI need to depend on my sister for healing because my spells are still not good at healing people for now.â
.....
âI am Iris. I am a druid. I can make healthy drinks and balms by crushing herbs and seeds.â Iris said while feeling a little nervous about the way Awa looked at her.
Awa moved her gaze onto Jun Ye Rim. She saw her frown as if she wanted to express herself. I do not need to introduce myself.
After a couple of seconds of silence, Plow went in front of Jun Ye Rim. She wagged her tails and barked to be lifted.
Jun Ye Rim lifted Plow. âPlow is a good girl.â She whispered in Jun Ye Rimâs ear.
Plow turned around to face Awa. *Pho, Pho.* âThis is Jun Jun. Jun Jun is a very kind person. She likes to plow with Plow...â *Muff. Muff.*
Jun Ye Rim hastily covered Plowâs mouth. As all the gazes in the room were staring at Jun Ye Rim, her pair of cheeks blushed.
âAhem.â She cleared her throat. âI am Jun Ye Rim. I am not Vincentâs wife. I can not fight. I can not use my class to help. I am a person you do not need to waste your time to get to know.â
Awa became speechless. Plow introduced Jun Ye Rim as a kind and great person to make acquaintance with. On the other hand, Jun Ye Rim spoke rudely and acted as if she was forced to introduce herself.
Lilith approached Awa and leaned her head to whisper, âVincent calls her personality a tsundere in his world.â
âTsundere?â She murmured.
âIt means Jun Ye Rim will most of the time express the opposite of what she wants to express. As an example. She might feel introducing herself is not as important as checking on Vincent at the moment.â Lilith slyly whispered.
Awa understood what kind of woman Jun Ye Rim was. âNice to meet you, Jun Ye Rim. I like efficient people like you.â She said while showing signs of respect.
Awa looked at Iris. âVincent told me we could become great friends because my hobby is to integrate food and herbs with water to increase the quantity I have at hand. Vincent told me that is why I awakened into the Alchemist class.â
Iris smiled after hearing Awa mention her hobby and stopped feeling slightly nervous around Awa.
Iris glanced at Vincent and thought, âVincent knows me well. Now I think I can have what sister Lilith told me many people have. I think Awa and I can become best friends.â
âYou are an Alchemist? What level of skills do you have? How can you fight? Why did Plow say you are strong if you have a support class?â Lilith questioned.
âYes, I am an Alchemist, but I have not tested my skills yet. Apparently, I can liquidize materials. or so my memories show me.â
âAs for fighting, my Dullahan blood awakened in me the moment I felt connected with Vincent.â
âNight was born in what Vincent called the Soul Domain. We fight together as one, and we hope to make our ancestors proud.â
Awa explained. She nodded once and said, âI will leave and let you all have time with Vincent. I will be outside with my people. If you need anything, please find me and ask.â
âOne last thing before you leave.â Said, Lilith.
âYes?â
âDo you know if Vincent had a plan for your people or those small creatures?â She asked.
Awa approached Lilith. She extended her hand and gave Lilith Vincentâs golden identity card.
âIf anything happened, I was asked to look for the Lionheart family or other families that could help me. I was asked to request shelter in his home and his parentâs in-law home.â
âMy parentsâ home? Did Vincent tell you more details about that? I do not think my father would accept so many people at once...â Lilith paused when a thought flashed in front of her mind.
âAwa!â Lilith exclaimed all of a sudden. âDid Vincent mention your people to work for us?â
Awa nodded. âWe would be given food and shelter. We would be able to work and train depending on the job we are given. I think Vincent asked for Cefeye of some of them to receive the same treatment.â
Lilith understood what she believed was in Vincentâs mind. Vincent wanted to help her parents acquire trustable workers for their newly created company.
Leonis and Teresa Lionheart created a hide tanning company, yet they were still on the lookout for workers who werenât industrial spies.
This was the perfect opportunity to provide residence to workers who could work, defend their employers, and were one hundred percent not industrial spies. The workforce could also become a defense force at any moment.
However, Lilith questioned how the Cefeye race could enter this work-related picture. The Cefeye race was known for stealing clothes. Not to mention ripping the clothes to make them fit on their small bodies.
Lilith could not guess what Vincent, with the help of Kazumi, had planned for the future. She overlooked how a couple of the Cefeyes wore patched pieces of animal fur on their bodies.
After answering Lilithâs question, Awa gently nodded and left the room. She headed to find her parents and tell her mother about the women she had just met.
âShe has an interesting character, doesnât she?â Mimi asked.
âI didnât think she would respond as if she was not nervous in our presence.â
âI can not wait to fight her.â
âI want to be friends with her.â
âI get the leader vibes from her. But eighter way, I want to later ask about her romantic story with Vincent.â
âI do not care about Awa so much that I will not answer your question.â
Ester, Iris, Lilith, and Mimi smirked while thinking, âYou are calling Awa by her name as if you care about her. You tsundere elf.â
âWhen will my mate wake up?â Asked Lupa, interrupting their hidden giggling.
âThe healer who healed Vincent was Duchess Hibiscus. â Mimi responded.
Mimi went to sit on her stool. She placed her leg on the other before continuing.
âThe Duchess was shocked to meet Vincent, or so she said. Based on her words, Vincent was paralyzed, yet it wasnât at the level she couldnât fix.â
âThe thing she was shocked the most about was Vincentâs body as a whole. She believes Vincentâs body had undergone a lengthy process of body destruction and reconstruction at an unbelievable speed.â
Ester, Lupa, Iris, Lilith, Mimi, Plow, and Jun Ye Rim moved their gaze onto Vincent. The thought of what Vincent had possibly experienced made their face express sadness.
Jun Ye Rim looked around. *Sigh* She expressed a sadder gaze.
âJun Jun.â *Pho* âAre you sad? Plow is sad.â Plow said.
Jun Ye Rim gently shook her head.
âWhat should I be sad about?â She responded before expressing, âIt is not like I care that I can not speak to Kazumi.â
âKazumi Kazumi told Plow to trust Awa Awa and help Awa Awa take Vincent Vincent home.â *Pho* âKazumi Kazumi told Plow to take care because Kazumi Kazumi was going to sleep deeply with soul pets.â *Pho*
âSo Kazumi is recovering, and Vincent is also recovering.â Lilith looked at Mimi and asked, âDo you know when Vincent could wake up?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âHe should be able to wake up by the time he is needed to make his appearance, or so Hibiscus told me. â Mimi responded. She patted her chest and added, âBut fear not.â
âFear not?â Asked Lupa after hearing the word fear.
âI am going to marry Vincent, awake or not. I will be participating in the judgment by combat.â Mimi moved her gaze to the door. âAwa is also seeking to marry Vincent and join the judgment by combat. But she wanted to meet the council of women and be accepted as the new wife.â
âYes!â Exclaimed Lupa happily. âWe can now compete five against five. I canât wait for Sunday to come.â
âHehe.â Lilith glanced at Jun Ye Rim and sarcastically commented, â That means only one in this room has not decided to give Vincent an answer yet.â
Jun Ye Rim frowned. âWho needs a womanizer like him to be their man.â She said while faintly blushing.
