Vampire's Slice Of Life

The game started with the sound of a gunshot fired by Sel. Having had an affinity with the Wind element, the gunshot was naturally compressed air propelled at a high speed.

Everyone vanished from their original position and was transferred to their respective positions.

…..

Space fluctuated within a certain cave in the jungle and a young boy slowly appeared out of it and stood in the centre of the cave, dressed in the academy’s outfit.

The uniform consisted of a black vest, blue tie, black belt, black shoes, and a black knee-length cloak which were worn over a white shirt. His silver hair blew in the breeze, and his purple eyes had a relaxed look.

Lith leisurely walked towards the exit of the cave without any hurry. He had already defeated all of the strongest guys in his batch, and today would be no different, were his reasons for being relaxed. It wasn’t arrogance but pure facts. He exited the cave and began walking in a direction he chose at random.

He heard the rustling sound of the bushes after a few minutes of strolling. Even though it was windy, Lith detected a slight irregularity in the rustle of the bushes behind him. He pretended not to hear it and went on his way.

Lith purposefully walked nonchalantly, as if he wasn’t aware of his surroundings. His strategy worked, as only a few minutes later he heard.

A student shouted, and four students emerged from the neighbouring trees and bushes and charged at Lith along with the student who had shouted.

“Ice Cage,” Lith muttered gently as he turned around and looked at them.

The five students’ bodies got coated in a white mist as water elemental energy surged through the area. They didn’t feel anything at first, but the mist had slowed their movement.

Within a second, the mist developed into an ice sheet covering their bodies, slowing them down even further, and a few seconds later, they felt numb and chilly all over their bodies due to the thick layer of ice covering them.

The five people were transformed into ice sculptures and remained in their former assaulting stance on the ground. After freezing them, Lith approached them and melted the ice on their heads, preventing them from suffocating to death.

“The sneak attack was bad.” Lith said neutrally as he walked away after taking the team leader’s flag.

As they stared at Lith’s disappearing figure, the five were dazed. It seemed impossible that they could be defeated so simply.

The five looked at the departing Lith’s back and were in a daze. They still couldn’t believe that they lost so simply. Finally, after a few seconds, the team captain sighed in defeat and cast a fire spell, dissolving the ice.

The five individuals then exited the playground and proceeded towards the common area, where their instructor was waiting.

Lith didn’t bother to look back at them and continued with his journey with the flag of a five-member team.

…

“This seems to be the best strategy. They should be here any minute now.” Ralph murmured as he sat on the branch of a tall tree. He was currently glancing below him and awaiting the arrival of a few people.

Ralph turned his attention to the east, west, north, south and found five, one, ten and three people respectively, approaching the tree he was perched on.

Ralph gave a small smile in response to such a spectacle and continued to wait.

…

“Why are we heading straight for the tall tree?” A teen with horns protruding from his forehead and a lizard like tail coming out of his lower back, indicating his draconic identity, asked to a demon teen who had horns at the sides of his head and a whip like tail with its tip being in a circular disc shape.

“Didn’t you notice the clues? We are a five-person squad, thus defeating a three-person team is simple. The clues indicate that there is probably a three-person squad ahead” retorted the demon teen.

The youngster who had posed the question nodded in agreement and continued walking without asking any further questions.

…

“Grr, Why are we going there?” A teen snarled, signalling his werewolf status and inquired pointing to the tall tree they were approaching.

“Stuff.” Another kid with dark wings on his back spoke as they moved forwards.

The werewolf teen growled and glared fiercely at the dark-winged kid, but said nothing further and quietly trailed behind.

…

“What do you mean? Is it true that there is just one person present? Why are we attempting to ambush a solo player? The person may be anyone from the top ten or perhaps the Vampire Prince, the most powerful person in our entire batch.” A petite teen wearing a black pointy hat and wielding a black staff said to a companion dressed similarly.

“Don’t worry, no one from the top 5 is present, so it’ll be safe,” The girl who was asked the question responded.

“I believe in you.” Another teen with similar clothing as the other two, added from the side.

…

“Lala leyo lala leyo, mhmhmm lala leyo…” Dennis walked leisurely while singing a song as if he was strolling in his castle’s garden.

“…lala le— eh? What’s that?” Dennis halted and looked at three figures in black pointy hats moving towards a tall tree.

“Hehehe three witches, it’ll be interesting.” He smiled and muttered to himself. Dennis picked up his pace and drew closer to the tall tree. He didn’t bother to move stealthily and rushed forward with reckless abandon.

…

Lith was strolling with two black flags in his hands, one bearing the number 1 and the other bearing the number 27, both in white lettering.

Despite the fact that Lith appeared to be wandering casually, he was always aware of his surroundings and on the lookout. After a few more steps, he sensed someone approaching from the north, so he turned around and saw a person heading towards a tall tree.

He knelt down and placed his palm on the ground, closing his eyes and trying to sense the person approaching the tall tree.

After a few seconds, he opened his eyes and smiled. He let out a small chuckle and muttered

“Who created such chaos? Hmm, let me guess…Ralph? But if he did so, why is Dennis moving there too? Ralph isn’t stupid to attract Dennis in the first 30 minutes. Never mind that, let’s see how this goes, hehe.”

Saying so, Lith moved towards the tall tree too.
