Vampire's Slice Of Life
chapter-87

Lith had reached top 10,000 but his goal was to be in the top class. He had thought to be at the bottom of the class but after he heard Liam trash talking to him mid fight, he had a thought which made him understand that getting bullied or trash talked was inevitable as long as he was the weaker one.

He had thought of pretending to be weak and faceslap people later, as mentioned in novels that he used to read back on Earth but reality was different. Just a few words from his opponent was enough to let him know that to get trash talked or bullied was very annoying. Yes, he may get to faceslap later but he had to endure the humiliation that was brought before.

It was too annoying when he thought about it. There was also a possibility that someone may say some stupid things and trash talk about his family. He could not tolerate such a thing and he didn't want to even have this scenario created as much as possible. Thus, he made up his mind to stop hiding himself and be out in the open as the Vampire Prince. He loved his family and he didn't want to hear any insult coming at him regarding them in any form.

To eradicate this possibility to it's entirety, he decided to stop hiding. Sure there may be assassinations coming at him but they weren't a problem at all. Previously he thought that if he got hurt or died, his family would worry but at that time, he neglected one fact that there were artifacts available in this world.

He had no idea how strong his mother was but he had heard some stories of her past from his big sister and from it, he knew she was at the top of this world. She was a queen of an entire race and also a Supreme rank. She naturally could also make the most superior artifacts available in this world. These artifacts could always protect him during very critical times.

He would be safe from assassinations and so Lith understood that there was no point in hiding anymore. He would disguise himself only when needed and most of the times, he would roam the world without disguise.

All in all, Lith made up his mind to win the tournament and be the top candidate of his batch.

.....

Arena B, Abalax Sky Island, Espat.

"FIGHT!"

Lith, as soon as he heard the word, took out his sword from his ring and casted 'Short Jump'.

He teleported directly in front of his opponent and hacked the sword into his heart and killed him instantly.

The poor guy didn't even know what had happened to him or how he died because everything happened so quickly.

The refree was also a little shocked by Lith's instantaneous attack. But he nevertheless quickly typed a few things on his tablet screen and went to revive the poor guy who died. When the opponent was alive and well once again, the refree got back to his position and said

"Lith Evure wins and advances to the next round."

The opponent was shocked but before he could say anything, he got sucked into a space vortex and teleported outside the arena.

Lith thanked the refree and left the arena.

.....

Arena C.

"FIGHT!"

Lith repeated the same move and the refree too do the same thing. After reviving the candidate, the refree got back into position and said

"Lith Evure wins and advances to the next round."

Lith once again thanked him and left.

.....

Arena A.

"FIGHT!"

Lith once again killed his opponent, the refree revived him, got back into position and said

"Lith Evure wins and advances to the next round."

Lith once again thanked him and left.

.....

Arena G.

"Lith Evure wins and advances to the next round. Congratulations Lith on being in the top 200 and getting into class A-1."

Lith thanked him and left.

.....

Arena E.

"Lith Evure wins and advances to the next round. Congratulations Lith on being in the top 50."

.....

Arena D.

"Lith Evure wins and advances to the next round. Congratulations Lith on being in the top 10."

.....

Arena J.

"Lith Evure wins the tournament. Congratulations Lith on being the number 1 candidate of this year. Please await for further instructions from the academy. You'll be teleported back right now. Have a nice day."

Before Lith could thank him, he got sucked into a vortex of space and vanished from the arena which was present on Abalax Sky Island.

.....

At the corner of Arena J.

"Not bad, not bad. The days to come would be more fun, I think, hahahaha." Arya wrapped her arm around Emilia's neck and stuffed her in her bosom and said laughing in a cheerful tone.

"Mhffm, sffinky liffzard leffhm meh gffo."

Emilia made muffled noises due to having her face stuck in between Arya's boobs.

"Yaaaah~ it went much better than I expected haha. Sel, what made him change? He first killed someone accidentally then became soft, then did a slightly serious battle and in later rounds straight up massacared his opponents.

He felt too much of a softie to me before but now I can actually see a little bit, the balance he has. He is both gullible and ruthless hahahaha. I like it!

Sel, make sure to squeeze out as many benefits as you could from Emmy. I need more funds now."

Arya said in her usual happy tone. Sel looked at Arya and nudged her glasses and said in a flat tone

"Consider it done, Miss Arya. Madam would not be stingy to give benefits to her one and only bestfriend."

"Mffhm, mffhm, leffhm meee gffffo.." Emilia struggled more intensely when she heard the word 'bestfriend'.

"This year will be much more interesting than before, I have a hunch." Arya smiled and said to which Sel nodded her head while Emilia continued to struggle.

"Alright then..."

Smoooooch!

Arya cupped Emilia's face and gave her a deep and long kiss on her lips. Emilia obviously put up her struggle but couldn't get off. Arya let go and walked away in a cheerful tone and said from far away

"...See ya, bestie. Byeeee~"

"ARGH STUPID LIZARD! I HATE YOU! I HATE YOU!" Emilia went after Arya while cursing at her.

Sel sat at her seat and watched her madam chase Miss Arya. She nudged her glasses once again and said in a flat tone

"Madam sure seems to enjoy it."

.....

Royal Castle, Nightingale.

Lith teleported back to his mother's bedroom. The first thing he saw, no, felt, were the familiar heavenly softness of his mother.

"Welcome home, baby."

Lilith said while hugging Lith. She had been waiting for him for almost a week and it was obvious that she missed him very much.

Lith was about to say something but he once again felt another pair of heavenly softness on his face. Lith knew who they belonged to and smiled.

"Welcome home, dear."

Lucy said while hugging Lith and making it a three way hug between her, Lith and Lilith.

Lith pulled his face out a little from Lucy's big breasts and said with a smile

"I am home."

Lilith said with a sad expression

"Mama missed you so much, you know. It felt so lonely when I couldn't breastfeed and cuddle you. I can now understand how you must've felt when you were away from us for 100 days.

Mama is sorry, baby. You had to go through such a difficult trial for no reason and be 100 days away."

Lucy wanted to add more onto it but Lith interrupted them by saying

"Don't be sorry, mom. It's alright. I need to have such experiences in life. Anyway, let's stop with these melancholic words. Let's go have a bath first, I am very sweaty right now."

They had a bath normally after that and Lith had his dinner which was a simple steak along with some veggies.

They started talking about whatever happened over the week and Lith also started telling them about his tournament.

.....

Auckland City, Villmer.

"Master Liam, your slave is at your service."

Liam looked at the man indifferently. He said

"Contact a Witch and buy a fake identity that could be used in the underworld and get me access to Scelestus."

"As you command." The man that looked like a beggar said bowing.

Liam had asked one of his servant who was proficient in Dark element to cast a hypnosis spell on a random guy and make him obey Liam. He did that and it was now this scene.

The man left after Liam gave him the meeting place time and address. Liam was covered and the man only knew of his name and not appearance. This was done to ensure that his identity won't be leaked to the Witches.

After a few hours, the man returned and gave the identity and things to Liam.

Liam took it from him and killed him and removed any evidence of him ever existing.

"It is time to hunt some criminals and get stronger now."

Liam muttered and went away.

.....

The Combat Test Tournament had ended marking the end of the Entrance Exams and the ranking was posted online on the academy's website. The academy also posted blogs congratulating the candidates who entered top 10,000 and were admitted into the academy.

The selected candidates had to verify themselves and register into the academy online. After their registration, they were partially the students of the academy.

The opening ceremony for the new semester was at the start of the month of February and only after that, the admitted candidates would be officially the students of the academy and their new academy life would begin which would last for 5 years or until they became rank 6.

The academy graduated students as soon as they reached rank 6. It didn't matter wether they complete their 5 year term or not. Rank 6 was a good enough rank for students to have to go out and adventure and survive in the world. They were basically ready and being in the academy would only delay their experiences and halt their growth.

The academy didn't forbid students from continuing their academy life for 5 years even if they reached rank 6 but they would graduate them. The students could still live on the campus ground and use the facilities with the monthly points they would get from the academy until their 5 years are over. Though they wouldn't be allowed to take classes or missions or enter into an event.

They could be in the organizing or managing staff of events and missions but not take part in it. All in all, it was a waste to be in the academy after ok me reached rank 6 and graduated as the academy would graduate you and restrict you a little so that you don't waste your time in it.

Even if this was the case, there were many students who still stayed. There were three students who, after their 5 years were over, left the academy being a rank 7 and rank 8. Two students were rank 7 and one was rank 8 when they left the academy after their 5 years.

In any case, 5 years was the graduation criteria. The students were given grades when they graduated. The earlier one was, the higher the grade. If one failed to graduate by the 5th year, they would be given 1 extra year to do so and their marks were just passing grades. They were the lowest.

The students who still failed, were given a failing certificate and expelled from the academy.

.....

After the academy posted the ranking, the whole world got to know that the Vampire Prince was the strongest teenager right now. Every year, whenever the list came out, the world would know about the strongest teenager of that year. They would keep an eye out on him as these were the teens with the highest chances to be an Emperor rank or above.

These teens would be given recruitment letters from all over the world and their future was bright. But, there were also many times when they were assassinated. The academy couldn't do anything about it as it was both a blessing and a curse.

The student would be protected from assassinations by joining any organization at an early stage and getting their help. Thus, the academy never stopped giving out the ranking.

Everyone was watching news regarding the academy with utmost interest. Previously they were told that there was a Vampire Prince, then news came out about the Vampire Prince joining the academy and now he was the strongest teenager. The world was very interested now.

Lith had become a hot topic in the world and many were watching news regarding him with great interest.

Though he was oblivious to it and didn't bother to check what the world thought of him.
