Vampire's Slice Of Life

Auditorium, Abalax World Academy.

Space fluctuated around one of the seats in the middle of the auditorium and soon a black-haired, black-eyed student teleported out.

It was Lucas who had just arrived and looking around, he sighed in relief. He was familiar with such a scene and situation and was calm. He sat down on the seat behind him and closed his eyes to rest.

‘What weird fate is this? I got eliminated at the same time and place, twice. Sigh…’

Lucas sighed and tried to rest. However, in the next instant, he opened his eyes abruptly and sat straight on his chair and thought,

‘What the fuck!? That spiritual power, it definitely was something familiar. Shit. It can’t be. No, no, no, it shouldn’t be. I can’t come in contact this early or everything would be fucked. System! System! Who was that!? Answer me!’

[The user has not been registered in the system. Data insufficient to come to a plausible answer.]

‘How… After all that happened… How is the user not registered!?’

[No plausible answer available.]

‘This damn system! Curse you!’

Lucas gritted his teeth and gripped the armrest of his seat tightly.

‘System, I’ll ask you one final time. It was that guy right? Tell me, it was him right?’

[Insufficient data. Can not arrive at a logical conclusion. Can not answer.]

‘This damn system! Fuck you!’

[Detected unstable mental state. Injecting a calming potion into the body in 10….]

‘Huh!? What the fuck!? WHAT!?’

[…7… 3… 1… potion injected successfully.]

[Effect starts in 3… 2…]

‘THIS DAMN SYS–’

[…1… effect starts now.]

…

Central Plaza, Abalax World Academy.

“Hello, this is Kleo again. I just got a call from the officials and here’s the latest news about the tournament that you should know.” Kleo’s serious and depressing voice was heard by everyone in the central plaza.

“Why does this guy get so much screen time? Where is Vanir-senpai? Anything this guy says seems so depressing. Somebody cheer this dude up.” A student from the crowd said.

“Oi, what the fuck did you say?” A girl beside him replied to him.

“To whose voice do you think you are calling depressing?”

“The audacity of this guy…”

“If I could, I would’ve beaten this guy up right now! How dare he say something like that to Senior Kleo!”

A bunch of Kleo fangirls kept defending Kleo as well as cursing the guy who just said such a controversial line. Fighting wasn’t allowed and if it was, the guy sure would’ve gotten a good beating from all.

“Can you all shut up for a minute? Let me listen to what news there is.” An annoyed guy from the side said.

They all turned silent as they heard him speak. They too wanted to know what Kleo was going to say and thus kept quiet.

“Alright, so here’s the news. The tournament is cancelled.”

“Oh, I see.” A guy nodded his head in understanding and said out of habit.

Everyone around him stared at him and the guy, noticing the stares, felt nervous for some reason. Why are they staring like that?

“Did you even bother to listen?” A guy from the side said to him.

The guy got confused. Did he say something wrong? He didn’t, in his opinion.

“The tournament was cancelled due to reasons. What reasons, I do not know. I wasn’t told about it. Anyway, that’s about it. Vanir ain’t coming back, the stream has ended, goodbye. I don’t want to see you again.” Kleo on the screen said in a depressing tone.

“KLEO-SENPAAAAAI!”

“These stupid fangirls. The tournament was cancelled and they don’t care one bit about it.”

“Vanir-senpai is not coming back *sniff* *sniff*.”

“Huh!? What is this reaction!? Shouldn’t you be curious why the tournament was cancelled!?”

“Vanir-senpai…”

“Kleo-senpai…”

“Oh shit! Everyone is stupid here. I’ll just take my leave or I may lose what little brain cells I have.”

The news of the tournament getting cancelled spread everywhere on sky island. It was important news, but it got covered over the last few statements said by Keo and nobody cared much about it.

…

In a jungle, in front of a temple ruins.

Space fluctuated and Lith teleported out. He looked at the temple in front of him in ruins and knew he had to enter inside. There were four students there and those were the last ones left that were needed to be eliminated.

Lith walked towards the entrance and stopped before entering it. He looked around the entrance as something seemed off. He clearly felt something pass through his body or some sort of touch which he wasn’t able to explain well. He wondered what it was and looked around but found nothing around.

“I clearly felt something…” He muttered to himself. “It definitely seems fishy but well, there’s participants inside who need to be eliminated. If the academy can find out about them, it means they are watching. So if there’s too much danger inside, I just need to hold on and they will arrive, I guess.”

Lith thought whether it was safe for him to venture inside or not and making some logical deductions, he felt it safe to go inside.

Lith walked along a dark corridor and in front of him, around him and above him was nothing but darkness. He knew he was walking ahead by looking at the light from the entrance slowly dimming as he walked further in.

After a few minutes of walking, Lith finally saw light ahead of him. He didn’t rush ahead when he saw that but put his guard up and slowly moved forward.

Reaching the place in front of him, the lightly firstly seemed too blinding and he had to shut his eyes. A few seconds later he opened them again and his vision got adjusted to the light.

Looking in front of him, Lith raised his eyebrows in surprise. He was in front of a white and gold brightly lit pavilion of some sort.

In the middle of the pavilion, he saw two old men with long white beards in daoist robes drinking tea. It felt like a scene from a xianxia world to Lith and their long beard with daoist robe seemed very cliche.

One of the two old man turned his head towards where Lith was standing and said with a smile,

“Come here, child. You are the fated one.”
