Vampire's Slice of Life

Kunlor Forest, Outskirts of Espat.

Lith, Ralph, and Dennis have been hunting monsters for three hours now. It was noon now.

I have to leave now. Good luck and have fun. Lith said to the two.

Bye. Ralph said in a neutral tone.

Bye-bye, Your Highness. Dennis waved his hand and said.

Lith imbued some spiritual power in his teleportation token and vanished. After he was gone, Dennis looked at Ralph and asked,

Do you have Time affinity too?

No. Ralph replied simply.

Then how were you able to stop that sharp thorn from making contact with your body?

Space spells.

Ooooh. Ah, yeah, right, right. I forgot you had a Space affinity. But damn, what bad luck we have. Unlike His Highness, we either have Space or Time affinity. I wish I had both. Dennis recalled Ralphs affinity and said in understanding.

Why do you want both? Dont you already have six affinities? Be happy and content. Ralph said in a neutral tone.

I am happy and content. Its just that, its a shame that I cant use Teacher Aryas special spells which are made from Space and Time elements.

Which special spell?

You know, the one where Uhh You know like when you try to touch her but you cant. You are very close to her but at the same time infinitely distant. Like, have you tried throwing something at teacher? You know the object wont be able to touch her. Dennis tried his best to explain.

Mhm, yeah. I recall her having one such thing.

Yup, yup. Thats the one. Teacher taught it to His Highness and it definitely looked cool. Dennis repeatedly nodded his head like a pecking chicken and said.

Ralph stared at him for a few seconds, a bit dumbfounded. This guy wanted to learn the spell because it was cool? What was wrong with his head?

Its a pity. Anyway wait youve got Time affinity, I have Space, we can still give it a shot if we work together. Do you know what the spell is and its mechanism? Ralph suddenly got an idea and said.

Oh! Definitely! We can still try it. Yes, I do know about it. I was there when teacher was teaching His Highness that. Come, lets practice. Theres a lot of monsters here and we can test it out here itself. Dennis said enthusiastically.

Yes. Ralph nodded.

The two got to practicing Aryas signature spell in the first level of the Kunlor Forest.

Lenz Suburbs, Lenz city, Espat.

Lenz city was divided into three sections. The outer, middle, and inner areas.

The outer section was the outskirts of the city and had the working class living there which included labourers, clerks, maids, etc. These people were poor with their annual salary being less than 5 gold coins.

The middle section was the suburbs of the city and had the middle class people living here. These included the artists, freelancers, small business owners, employees with better salaries than the working class, etc. These people had an annual salary ranging from anywhere between 6 to 20 gold coins.

The inner section was the main area and also the most important one. This was where the Lenz Tower was located. Only the wealthy ones could afford to live here which included A class adventurers and above, big business owners, alchemy masters, potion masters, basically, experts of various fields, and this was also the home to the various officials of the CNC.

Lith was currently in the suburbs of the city. Jingemi Guild was located here. It was present close to the border of the main city and suburbs.

Lith walked for a while and reached the vicinity of the guild. Here he saw a lot of adventurers roaming around. These people had one thing in common, that being, their insignia. The insignia was of Jingmei Guild which was a black leopards face.

The guilds building looked more like a big gray castle than a building. Lith walked inside through the common entrance and found himself to be in the lobby. He walked towards the reception and found a lean man working behind a computer.

Hello, I am a D class adventurer. I am here to sell some stuff. Lith said in a neutral tone to the guy.

After clearing a few levels in the D class dungeon before, his rank was raised from F to D by the guild present in Langerhan city.

Are you registered in the guild? The man asked.

No.

Okay. What do you have to sell?

Killer sheep meat. Ten kilograms.

The man typed a few things on the computer after hearing Lith and then looked at him after a few seconds and said, okay, give it to me. Ill give you the money.

Lith raised an eyebrow as he heard this. The guy didnt tell him how much the price would be for the ten kgs of meat and straightaway asked for it. It was definitely very suspicious. Not only that, the guy did not even say about the prices they offered to registered and non registered members.

Lith could tell that there was corruption happening here in this guild. It was no wonder that Muron was scammed. He decided to see for himself if it was the entire guild that was corrupted or just a few bunch. If it was the former case, he would leave it be and maybe come back later in future to change things. If it was the latter case, he would change this within a few days.

Lith didnt bother to talk with the guy and walked away, leaving the man dumbfounded. Lith didnt even give him a chance to offer prices for his goods and just walked away. But pretty soon, he shrugged his thoughts off and got back to working as that had got nothing to do with him.

Lith walked in an alley and put on a disguise. He was about to go ask people a few things and he couldnt let them see his true face for it.

He walked back towards the guild vicinity and was about to begin his plans.
