Vampire's Slice Of Life

Lith was currently sitting on a chair in his room and going through the notes he made this week in the advanced classes that he attended.

While he was on it, space fluctuated around him and a beautiful lady wearing a simple black dress walked out of thin air. She had the same silver hair and purple eyes as Lith and she also looked the same as him. It was none other than Lilith.

Lith noticed the fluctuations and turned his head to find his mother standing a few meters away from him and looking at him with a smile.

“Why are you here, mom?” Lith asked, a bit confused and dumbfounded.

He knew the security of the academy. He had read it in the forums online and also experienced a bit in this one week. He didn’t think his mother would be able to teleport from their home in Nightingale over here to his dorm in the abalax sky island.

He thought the security to be too tight and now when he found his mother arriving so easily, he was a little shocked and dumbfounded and asked her that question unknowingly.

Lilith chuckled and walked towards Lith. She hugged him from behind and said gently

“Am I not allowed to visit and see my own baby?”

Lith shook his head and said

“No, that’s not what I mean, mom. I meant, how were you able to get past the security and be here?”

Lilith giggled at his question and gave him a kiss on his cheeks and said

“Fufufu…did you forget? Mama is very strong.”

Lith turned his head to the side and looked his mother in the eyes. He had a look that said ‘You serious?’.

Lilith smiled and didn’t say anything to him. After a few seconds of looking his mother in the eyes and not getting a response, Lith sighed and gave up asking about it again.

Just how strong was his mother? He wondered. Though he wondered, he didn’t ask her about it again. He knew that if she wanted to, she would’ve said it and since it wasn’t something too important, he didn’t ask her about it again.

“How is big sis?” Lith asked, changing the topic.

“She is busy with politics. It seems that the hierarchy of the Vampires needs to be changed again.” Lilith replied softly.

Lith nodded his head and didn’t ask anything more. He stayed in his mother’s embrace for a few minutes and Lilith then said

“I’ll be visiting you every week to feed you my blood.”

Lith nodded his head and understood why his mother was here and said

“Bring big sis along too sometimes.”

“Sure. Now come, time for you to feed.” Lilith said and picked Lith up from his chair. She sat on it herself and made him sit on her lap.

Lith was handled like a baby despite being a teen now. Lith felt embarrassed for being picked like that but didn’t voice it out.

After getting comfortable, he bit Lilith’s neck and drank her blood. Lilith patted his back while he was drinking. After a few seconds, he felt full and also drowsy. He let go of it after licking her wound clean.

Lith got up from his mother’s lap and said

“I have work, mom. But now I feel drowsy and want to rest. Next week when you come back, please bring Rena too and also bring big sis if possible. Alright, I am off to sleep, goodnight.”

He kissed her on her cheeks and went to bed. Lilith smiled and walked towards him. She gave him a kiss on his forehead and said

“Will do. Goodnight, baby.”

She left after saying that and Lith took a nap in his room.

…..

After a few hours.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

“Oi kiddos, come down!” Arya said loudly while ringing a bell downstairs.

This was an alarm to notify the three to come down from their rooms when Arya wanted them to. It was present at a corner in the living room and was accessible to all four living in the building.

The three came down and settled themselves on the sofa opposite to where their teacher was. Arya took out three papers and pens and gave one each to the three.

“Select what all tests you would be giving tomorrow. There are flying, strength, endurance and agility tests available for physical tests; logical reasoning, problem solving and mental aptitude tests available to test your intellect.

You need to select minimum three and as for maximum, you can do all of them. The more tests you give and do better, the more merit points.”

Arya said to them while reclining on the sofa. The trio nodded their heads and selected what all things they would be doing. They passed their papers back to Arya after filling it.

Arya took it and had a look. She then looked at the three and said raising one of her silver eyebrow

“Seriously? You all only selected three? And you Dennis, you didn’t even select any intelligence test, why?”

Lith, Ralph and Dennis looked at each other, clearly surprised with such a coincidence. Dennis then turned and gazed at Arya and said

“Teacher, it’s a pain to do all the tests. We just have to ensure that we have merit points just above the other people right? Doing the three tests in which we are gonna ace it will give us enough so why should we bother with other ones?

And the intelligence tests are so boring. I don’t like it, so I didn’t choose it.”

Lith and Ralph nodded their heads to agree with what Dennis said. Those were their thoughts too.

“Hahaha! You lot, you definitely are my students. Just as lazy as me! But you shouldn’t be doing only three tests in my opinion.

You should do all of them. As the more merit points you accumulate and the larger the gap you have between the others, the more lazy you can be.

Hmm, I think if you participate in all tests and be in the top 3, you can relax for six to eight weeks and won’t have to worry about others passing you. So what do you think? Still going with only three tests?”

Arya laughed and said and gave a meaningful smile at the end and asked them the final question.

The three pondered over it and found their teacher’s comment to make sense. They looked at each other and nodded their heads and confirmed that all had the same thoughts. Lith looked at Arya and said

“Then please have us attend all the tests, teacher.”

“Yes, ye-Huh? Your highness didn’t we just agree on doing only three tests?” Dennis first nodded his head and when he heard the latter words, he got confused and turned to look at Lith.

“What? I thought we were agreeing on doing two tests each from the physical and the intelligence section?” Even Ralph seemed confused and asked.

Arya giggled at this scene. She put the papers on the square glass table and wrote a few things on it. She then picked them up, got up and said walking towards the stairs

“I’ve filled the papers for you to attend all the tests. Alright, I am off now, take care kiddos.”

“Teacher nooooo!” Dennis said loudly but Arya had left already and his words were wasted.

He didn’t want to attend all tests, especially the intelligence ones. He had to think too much while writing those intelligence tests and it felt torturing to him.

He also didn’t want to do other tests because it would be too time consuming and he wouldn’t have time to do other activities. Those activities being playing games in his room, lazing around, snacking and sleeping.

Ralph had no problems with giving all tests but he too found physical tests a bit tiring. At first he had selected his three tests to be two intelligence ones and one flying test. He was a demon and naturally had wings; coupled with his wind affinity allowed him to have superior flying abilities.

Lith on the other hand had no problems with any of the tests. He was confident in acing any or all of them, so it didn’t matter whether he chose three or all. He wasn’t cocky about it, nor was he overconfident about it. His mother and sister had trained him well and that was the source of his confidence.

Lith got up and made some tea for himself and the other two and sat on the opposite sofa. The three discussed over tea on what needed to be done tomorrow for the test and what they needed to prepare beforehand. After finishing their talk, they all went to their rooms and prepared for the test tomorrow.
