SUMMONED AND UNWANTED - Chapter 739 - 739 Those strange bears are my prey
739 Those strange bears are my prey
The passive warrior skills giving stat increases gave Vincent and Kazumi the impression of being oddly enhanced, as if manipulated. Furthermore, the details of their conditions were too similar to be called a coincidence.
To meet five people and all of them coincidently suffering from high blood pressure was too unusual. If that wasn’t a red flag, then the next definitely was. All five gladiators were suffering from minor addictions.
Another bizarre thing was the details. Vincent’s Inspection skill empowered by the third eye did not reveal what addictions they suffered from. It made Vincent and Kazumi become cautious of what each gladiator was hiding.
Vincent decided it was best also to inspect each of the familiars. He focused his gaze on the first bear, and a frown appeared on his face. His teeth clenched, and his hands formed a fist out of anger.

[Mutated Return To Dust description.]
[When the host dies, the body will not take a long time to decompose and break down. Instead, the body will decompose and turn to dust in a matter of seconds.]
[The dust can be used as a fertilizer. It is rich in nutrients as each tiny piece of dust will have completely broken down nutrients.]
.
[Third Eye activate.]
[Mutated Amalgamation Of Dust description.]
[The [Amalgamation Of Dust] can trigger when the host detects a source fertilizer near its body. The more nutritious the fertilizer detected is, the higher chances [Amalgamation Of Dust] will activate.]
[The host will be able to increase the stats and body size depending on the nutrients absorbed.
The richer the nutrients, the more chances of [Mutated Overnutrition] to occur.]
[During this state, the host will become unable to control its reasoning and will see everything in its path as fertilizer, or soon-to-be fertilizer. The aggression will extend with each new nutrient the host absorbs.]

Vincent and Kazumi were at a loss for words as each bear only had slightly different stats. The traits were all the same.
Vincent and Kazumi couldn’t believe the bears were allowed to participate with the excuse of receiving special training from birth. The word mutated before the name of their two oddly compatible traits was too abnormal to believe it was a coincidence.
The whole team of five humans and five bears was bizarre and unnatural, similar to Vincent’s team with the power given from his mutation and hero power.
“Girls, stay on your toes.”
“I can smell your blood warming. Are you feeling angry?” Mimi asked.
Vincent gently nodded. “You can say that. The ten in front of us were sent to fight us to the death. No matter who the winner will be, they will die today.”
“Huh? What do you mean?” Ester curiously asked. She wondered what Vincent saw to speak this way.
“The gladiators are warriors, yet their skills have oddly high values. On the other hand, the bear familiars are even stranger.”
*Tsk* “The five bears have the same identical trait. One is to become dust upon death, and the other is to absorb the dust of the dead. It will cause them to become stronger and larger.”
“Does that mean we are going to fight a bear as large as the undead bear?” Awa asked before requesting, “If so, I want to fight it. I have unfinished business with unnatural bears.”
“I want to fight them too…”
“No, Lupa.” Vincent inturrupted Lupa. “I was told you sparred with Awa. It means you know how Awa is much better suited to fight large enemies than us all.”
“I agree. ” Ester said, and Mimi said after her.
“I want to add sister Awa’s opponent, then. I want to fight two at once.” Lupa demanded while crossing her arms and pouting to have her way.
Vincent gently shook his head. “Fine. But remember to depend on us if two opponents are too much for you.”
“Hehe. My mate does not need to worry. Best girl Lupa, can handle two humans.” Lupa proudly stated while her tail happily wagged.
[Vincent. Look at the bears. It would be best if you saw this.]
“See what…” Vincent turned around and noticed the gladiators kicking the bears back and trying to suppress them.
The bears looked angry. The pair of eyes on their head sheened yellow, and their frowns showed rage. However, they didn’t display a hint of retaliation. Instead, they looked at Vincent, and only him.
“I can feel the bloodlust coming from the bears. Not only that, but strangely, I can feel it all directed at me. Am I their target?” Vincent widened his eyes and said his thought aloud, “Could they be targeting me because of my mutated blood since they possess mutated traits?”
“Are they like the Great Orso and the huge undead bear, then?” Awa promptly asked. Like Lupa detested gray wolves, Awa despised bears after everything she and her people had to suffer because of them.
[I also have bad vibes. I can see the mana surrounding the bears moving strangely. I think they might have something like a limiter suppressing them.]
Vincent nodded. “They are highly likely similar. I think they are remaining sane because they are being controlled with the familiar bond.” He responded.
“I want to kill them for killing my people. I want to hunt them to make the deceased in Valhalla celebrate.” Awa said in a tense tone.
Awa was angry to think there were more monsters like the ones only Vincent could kill. The five bears in her view became her targets to take revenge on. She wanted to eradicate them all.
[How about this plan?]
Vincent nodded after listening to Kazumi. He turned around and extended his fist. “Ester, you fight one gladiator.”
Ester nodded. She fist-bumped Vincent and said, “Leave it to me.”
“Lupa, you take two gladiators as you wish.”
Lupa nodded cheerfully. She fist-bumped Vincent and said with a beaming grin on her face, “Leave it to me.”
“Mimi, could I also ask you to take two gladiators until Awa and I defeat four bears? I will come to assist while leaving Awa to take on the last bear.”
Mimi nodded. She fist-bumped Vincent and said, “I can take care of two by myself. My father is also watching me today. I want to show him I can take care of myself, and I do not need him anymore.”
Vincent, Ester, Lupa, and Kazumi were shocked to hear Vlad was present and watching them.
Awa extended her fist toward Vincent. “Night and I will do our best to represent our new family and my proud Dullahan race.”
Vincent fist-bumped Awa. He smiled warmly at her. “I do not care what others will say about you. You can act unhonorable if it means you do not lose your life.”
“Vincent is right. Awa, were want to do a celebratory party and not a funeral.” Ester told Awa while smiling warmly.
“Food! I want to eat good meat!” Lupa faced her enemies, and her eyes saw the five humans and five bears as her prey.
Mimi giggled when noticing Lupa was already drooling. “Yes. I would like to enjoy a feast as the wife of the man who has delectable blood.”
*Gulp* Vincent became nervous after hearing Mimi mention blood. At that moment, Mimi went in front of him and leaned her head. Her lips approached his ear.
“Could you be a dear and mutate for me? My handsome blood bank, I want a taste of you to become stronger.” She whispered erotically in his ear.
“Ladies and gentlemen. Less than a minute remains before the judgment by combat begins. On one side, we can see a team trying to calm their inpatient familiars while on the other side…”
The commentator saw Mimi flirting in front of so many people. He noticed a couple of single men were not too happy to see a man who had so many women flirt so openly.
“Ahem. The Lionheart team is secretly changing their plan in the last couple of seconds remaining. ” The commentator said before watching Vincent start to change his appearance.
“Look at that! Vincent Lionheart is preparing for combat. as I explained before, he owns a strange class not too different from a shapeshifter.”
“Yes, Egidio Faulkner. Vincent possesses a skill that allows him to equip flexible yet harder-than-steel gauntlets. Additionally, his stats will slightly increase depending on his mood.” Darwin explained while lying here and there.
The audience focused their gaze on Vincent. They saw Mimi bite his neck and place her fingers on his back. She slowly scratched his back as she sucked his blood and experienced euphoria.
Vlad frowned. He averted his gaze and noticed Luciano and Karta staring at him as if they were more interested in his reaction than looking at what was happening in the field.
“Ho ho. I never thought the mighty Vlad had a daughter that didn’t care who watched when to sucking her lover’s blood.” Luciano teased.
*Tsk* “She could have fed on his blood before entering the field. All she knows is to bring me shame and disappointment.” Vlad complained.
The gladiators were angry because they were trying to keep the bears from rushing to attack before the time to fight began, but their patience snapped when they saw their opponents flirting.
They wanted their opponents taunting them dead. So the gladiators stepped aside, leaving the bears to start running for the opposing team.
