Vampire's Slice Of Life

Lith was flying for a few minutes and finally halted when he saw the fog around him clear up.

In front of him was a forest having trees with dark leaves which blended well with the gloomy dark surroundings, and skulls and bones scattered around them.

He wondered what sort of place is this but his train of thoughts were broken as he felt a vast amount of Death elemental energy around him. He closed his eyes and tried to feel the energy, and as he was doing so, he started having a better understanding of the Death laws.

The Death elemental energy in his surroundings was starting to swirl around him and each instant, one strand after another was absorbed by his Magic Core.

A few seconds passed as this was happening and changes were starting to occur in Lith’s body. Feeling this, Lith abruptly opened his eyes and stopped cultivating.

He extended both his hands up and clapped twice, then extended them forward and once again clapped twice.

…

Auditorium, Abalax World Academy.

Emilia was watching only three students on the tablet screen—Lith, Ralph, and Dennis.

Ralph was traveling, Dennis was fighting a cow for some reason and Lith was meditating. A few seconds passed and she saw Lith clapping his hands.

This was a secret gesture that Emilia had taught the trio to do so that he could sever the connection with the academy and not have them monitor the three. There was no harm in doing so as apart from her, everyone else was exempted from watching. She would rush to them at the instant she found them in trouble.

The surveillance by the academy was to ensure the safety as well as to see the performance of the students. They were monitored every second for this reason. Even if Emilia cut off the connection of the trio from the rest, nobody would complain about it; the reason being: firstly she was the principal, and secondly she was their teacher.

Looking at Lith’s actions, Emilia thought:

‘Hmm? He wants me to cut off the connection? For what reason?’

Though she had questions, she knew she couldn’t get their answers as Lith was far away from her. She could only do as he had asked. She severed the connection with the others and watched what he was doing.

Fluctuations couldn’t be felt through the screen and Lith wasn’t doing something flashy or crazy to have the energy around him fluctuate like crazy or become dense enough to break the equilibrium with the forces of the world and become visible. Emilia, therefore, wasn’t able to see him absorb Death elemental energy and only saw him meditate while standing.

Emilia had no idea why he was meditating like that and felt that having the connection severed for this to be unnecessary. Despite her thoughts, she didn’t make him visible to others and continued to watch him.

Watching Lith meditate, she did feel it to be odd but it wasn’t as odd as what her other student was doing.

Dennis was fighting with a cow and that was the strangest thing she was watching. He had been fighting with the cow for a few hours by now. Since the time he teleported out, he had only been fighting with the cow.

Emilia was worried that even Dennis would have trouble at the start but her worries were for naught as he was teleported to a safe place. However, she had underestimated the situation.

She was relieved knowing that Dennis wasn’t attacked like Lith and Ralph at the start. However, even though trouble didn’t find Dennis, Dennis instead went ahead and found trouble.

She was at a loss when she saw that. The cow was a peace-loving animal in that dimension. It had no role and was in no way related to the tournament.

It was a species of that dimension and the only thing the cow did was eat the shrubs and plants grown in that icy region, breed, sleep, roam, and moo. It had no other purpose. It was a pretty peaceful animal and it wouldn’t even harm the plants it ate.

The animal was smart enough to know that if it ate the plant as a whole with the roots, the plant would never grow again. So it only ate the upper portions of the plants and shrubs and left room for them to grow.

It was such a peaceful animal but Dennis had somehow angered it and was fighting it.

Emilia could not understand why Dennis was wasting so much time fighting a benign animal. His fight was still on and it had been a few hours. During this time, Ralph had defeated a few monsters and traversed a good amount of distance while Lith had exterminated a small monkey territory.

Why was he wasting his time fighting the cow was something Emilia still couldn’t figure out and having nothing better to do, she continued to look at Dennis’s fight to understand the reason for him doing so.

…

Blue Haze World.

A giant teen was walking through a grassland and was going eastwards. He had a small circular object in his hand and was checking it periodically as he walked.

A few hours passed and as he traversed the grassland, he came across a jungle. A few kilometers away from him, he saw smoke arise. The giant teen walked in the direction of the smoke and reached the source a few minutes later.

He saw three teenagers sitting around a fire, roasting meat, eating, and talking. The three were the ones who needed help from him and were none other than Sheng, the werewolf teen; Ji, the demon teen, and Ojas, the dragon teen.

They had noticed Gunther arrive and looking at him, gestured for him to come to sit with them and have meat.

Having Gunther settled and giving him a piece of meat, Ojas bit onto a big chunk, said chewing it,

“This was unexpected. This dimension is big and there are only ten thousand of us here. Finding another student is as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack.”

The three nodded their heads.

“You’re right. I think, our scores would depend on not just defeating the other students, but also doing certain things here. Who knows, maybe… Just maybe, there are treasures hidden all over the dimension? Our only goal is to not get eliminated and try to eliminate others if we see them. There’s no time limit to the tournament either.” Ji, the demon teen added.

Gunther, Sheng, and Ojas nodded their heads. There definitely was more than their eyes could see or brains could think or comprehend.

“Maybe… I think maybe the academy wants us to explore this small dimension and adventure here.” Ji continued.

The three pondered over what Ji just said. It made sense to the three but they were thinking about why the academy was doing this? Wasn’t it a survival-based tournament?

Ji looked at the three who were deep in thoughts and elaborated further,

“Well, no point thinking too much. Our goal is to be in the top 10 and that can only be achieved by eliminating others. We weren’t told anything regarding how the winners would be decided apart from that, so let’s just do what is asked of us.”

The three nodded their heads once again and Ojas said to Gunther and Sheng,

“Ji is right. Though there seems to be more to this tournament, we definitely won’t lose if we abide by the rules. Overthinking and doing extra things would just result in us wasting our time and energy. So let’s just do what is asked of; search others and eliminate them with the plans we had made previously.”

“So when are we moving?” This time it was Gunther that spoke.

“After we finish our lunch.” Ojas answered.

The three had a lot of food and after filling their bellies, cleaned up the surroundings, put off the fire and head North.

There were no hints available to them and they picked North for no reason.

They had many schemes and strategies planned to defeat the other students. These were made after assessing the strength and weaknesses of all the students above them and a few places below them.

They were in class A-3, meaning, in the top 600, and thus were stronger than 9,400 students which were below them. They thus didn’t have to worry about everyone and just had to plan for the ones above them.

They had enough food and water and it was so much that it could last for two to three years even if all four of them shared it. Thus their priority was to eliminate others.

A few hours passed as they marched in the North direction. They were still in the same jungle they previously were but far away from the place they had their lunch.

The four heard some strange footsteps as they were marching forward and hearing them, they halted, separated from each other, and hid. They didn’t hide too far away and were still close to each other and quietly and patiently waited to see who or what it was that was closing in on them and making strange footstep noises.
