Vampire's Slice of Life
Chapter 449 Lith's thoughts
"What reasons?" Lilith asked.
Although she was having a conversation with her future self, there was no excitement or even amusement on her side. It was as if everything felt natural to Lilith.
The future Lilith looked down at Lilith from the mighty throne she was platform she was standing on and said,
"There's an external force trying to penetrate his mind and take slight control of him. If you haven't noticed it already, you cannot read his mind and that's because there's something special about him. You'll know in future what it is. As of now, if I am not wrong, even he doesn't know anything about him and he won't be able to answer you even if you ask him."
"In any case, what's happening now is that the external force I talked about, it found Lith to be a suitable candidate and chose him. But, that force must've failed to read any of our child's thoughts and thus, baiting him with his own immortal core, it created a situation where it could penetrate his mind and have some control over his thoughts."
"Do you understand now, my past self?"
Lilith's brows were knitted this whole while and she was even more angry than before. Someone was trying to take control of her baby and she even had no idea about it!? How was this possible!?
Lilith's expression then turned slightly sad as she realized she wasn't a good mother and failed to protect her child from harm.
Lilith's eyes became slightly moist as she realized this fact along with feeling Lith's existence to fade away from her slowly.
The future Lilith, looking at her past self becoming all emotional, couldn't help but say,
"Stop feeling like that. This isn't like you. Have some trust in me because I am you and not any outsider or stranger. I love Lith just as much as you do."
"Ascensions are a vulnerable moment for everyone and that external force found it to be the best time to take control of him."
"But don't worry, Lith was already successful in establishing a link with his immortal core. The only problem now is that his mortal core is having problems changing into the core of a Half Saint Rank. You disintegrating his mortal core would result in the formation of his immortal core."
"Stay strong and go save our baby."
Lilith, hearing all of that, nodded her head and her expression became determined. This was no time to be sad, she can regret these things later. Now the main priority was to save Lith.
The future Lilith disappeared from Lilith's eyes and she was back to looking at the current situation properly.
Looking up, she realised there was a bit more distance she needed to cover to attack Lith's core and so, she increased her pace and moved towards Lith as fast as she could.

Looking at her mother-in-law rush towards Lith so fast, Arya couldn't help but comment,
"So that is the speed of a Legendary Rank."
Lilith, in her moment of panic, left Arya behind and the speed with which she was gone made Arya comment that.
Arya was about to follow Lilith and join her up there but as she looked down, she saw a few black dots moving upwards.
It was evident that they were people.
"Well, it seems like I can't follow my mother-in-law." Arya looked down and said in a neutral tone.
Lith needed to be rescued and it was Arya's top priority. However, she couldn't do that as there were people moving towards Lith and Arya had to stop them, lest they become a hindrance in saving her husband.
As much as Arya wanted to go up and save Lith, she could only just steel her heart and put all her trust into her mother-in-law. These people here needed to be stopped and Arya had to do this job by any means.
Arya looked up at Lith and prayed for his safety internally. She then looked down and said with a serious expression,
"Let's see what's the quickest way to kill them all."

Lilith soon reached and she immediately sent a spear imbued with pure destruction energy towards Lith's core. She ensured that it had enough power to destroy his core but not too much that would end up harming Lith instead.
It didn't take long for the spear to reach Lith's core and it immediately obliterated the entirety of Lith's core, thereby crippling Lith.
Normally, if one destroyed someone's core, it would end up releasing enough energy to destroy small towns and if it's an immortal core, it could even destroy an entire city if precaution wasn't taken.
However, Lith's state was different currently and he was transitioning from mortal realms to immortal realms.
His core thus had no energy as everything was spread into his body for ascension.
Lith's core got destroyed without any special thing happening and just as it did, Lith, who was floating in the golden beam of light, immediately fell down.
Lilith eventually caught his free falling figure and Lith's Astral World's consciousness was now in Lilith's arms.
Lith had a neutral look on his face as he lay in Lilith's arms. There were no signs of life coming from him and he appeared like a dead person.
As Lilith looked at him and saw how he wasn't responding, moving, or doing anything remotely living, tears couldn't help but come out of her eyes.
This was the first time Lilith had ever cried.
Lilith's tears dropped onto Lith's neutral face and as she looked at him, she couldn't help but say softly,
"I am sorry… I was a bad mother…"
Lilith hugged Lith after saying so and continued to sob.
While sobbing, she didn't forget to look for ways to revive him and her brain was working on full capacity to search for a way to get him back.
Her connection with Lith told her that Lith wasn't dead yet and there were still some signs of life. However, they were fading away and only little was remaining.
Lilith was thus stuck in a rock and a hard place and there didn't seem to be anything that she could do to help him. But still, she was trying her best to find a way.
Right at this moment, Lilith's future self appeared in front of Lilith's eyes again.
Lilith's future self, standing on a mighty platform, gazed down at Lilith and said calmly, "Stop crying. He won't come back even if you cry for an eternity."
Lilith didn't bother to look her future self in the eyes and was looking at Lith. Nothing mattered to her more than her son.
The Lilith from future sighed as she noticed this. She knew very well what emotions the current Lilith was going through as she had been through that as well. If given the option to, she would've chosen to not look at this scene again as it was really a very sad one.
However, she had to bear the pain and help the current Lilith as the Lilith of now wasn't powerful enough to do things on her own.
"Although I'll say you don't have to worry too much as he'll come back to life at any time from now, I know you won't believe my words and continue to be sad."
"Anyway, keep doing what you're doing, I'll just blabber a few things now and it's up to you to listen to them or not."
"So what's happening with him now is…"

In the vast expanse of darkness, Lith felt himself fall down and down and down…
There was no sense of time, no sense of touch, no noise, nothing happening, and only darkness and emptiness all over.
Lith's thoughts were almost about to stop completely.
Previously, not only were his memories made to fade away, his thinking process was also limited.<novelnext> For more chapters, please visit panda-n( 0 ve)l.com</novelnext>
The more one would think, the more difficult it is to break into their minds and whatever force that was trying to have a control of him, it ensured that Lith didn't have the ability to think too much.
This, coupled with his memories fading away, made Lith only have one thought at the last moment:
‘It was a good life…'
Lith was in no state to think too much about things as his thoughts were completely limited and the force on him was so strong, he could only have one thought.
At the last moment of his life, when not made available to even think and just have one single thought, Lith appreciated the life he had.
His family, his wives, his friends, his maids, his butlers, he appreciated each and every single person and his entire life that he lived. There was only appreciation in his heart for them at his final moments when he could only have one thought.
With this, Lith felt the end was near but he couldn't even notice it as his memories were almost gone and his thinking process was almost stopped.
He could only just let things flow. There was no option for him to preserve, no option to fight back, and no option to change things.
With things being this way, Lith kept falling and falling and falling…
Soon, at who knows what time, Lith suddenly saw a small bright dot at a distance he couldn't even have an estimate about.
It didn't take long for the dot to become brighter and larger and although Lith would've loved to analyse it and see what it was that was present in this vast expanse of darkness, he currently was stripped off of the ability to think and process things.
The dot became brighter and larger and soon, it was clearly visible to Lith.
It was a silver ray of light.
Lith had no thoughts about it and just watched it close in on him.
The light came closer and soon…
*
BOOM!
Lith's Astral World's body lying in Lilith's arms immediately had its aura explode, eventually shocking Lilith who was holding Lith.
Lith's eyes abruptly opened up and all his hair stood on their ends.
Lith's body once again got lifted and he floated up in the vast golden beam of light.
Lith's eyes were pure silver and bright and there were no pupils present there. His hair was floating against gravity and fluttering in the air.
Such an appearance of Lith caused Lilith to panic slightly, but she remembered the words of her future self and calmed down and looked at her son.
Lilith's future self had made the current Lilith prepared for everything that was about to occur and Lilith was thus slightly calm.
She went up in the air and stood right in front of Lith, watching over him in case any mishap occurred.
She looked at him and said in a soft motherly tone,
"Please preserve my dear child. You have to, for mama. Don't give up at any cost."
*
As soon as the silver ray of light hit Lith, all the memories he had of his two lives flooded in and his thinking process was momentarily restored as well.
Lith immediately became conscious of the entire thing happening with him and he cursed,
"What the fuck is happening!?"
No sooner, Lith once again felt his memories to fade away and his thinking process to slowly get limited.
"My thought process is being limited, isn't it?"
"Who is doing it?"
"Hmm?"
"The more I think about things…"
"Ah…"
Something immediately clicked Lith as he had rapid thoughts in quick successions.
Having too many thoughts slowed down the speed of the force trying to limit his thinking process.
"So to not become a living corpse like before, I have to think, right? The more I think, the faster I'll be able to eradicate that force trying to limit my thought process."
"No way! I refuse to be a living corpse like before!"
"A good life, I said, right?"
"Good life my ass!"
"I can't die now. I've got too many things to do. Too many places to be and too many problems to solve."
"How the fuck did I even think my life was good? Although, I do agree my life was indeed nice, it had the potential to be nicer, nicest, best, bestest, bestestestest!"
"I am an idiot to think I've had a fulfilled life. There are too many things remaining and I can't die just yet without doing them. Also, I cannot die even if I want to. My wives, my family, they would all be sad. I can't let them be sad no matter what happens."
"If I am not wrong, last time when I hit the barrier and ended up falling… let's call it the void, I immediately went into a state of losing memories and having a limit on my thought process. Before I could even think about that situation I was in, I was forced into a state of coma perhaps."
"Damn it! Whoever's trying to kill me or whatever is too strong! Who even is it!?"
"I'll definitely find it out once I am out of this place. But to get out, I need to think faster! Much faster than the current thinking speed!"
The method to counter this force trying to control Lith's mind that Lith came up with as soon as he got his thinking process back slightly by some miracle appeared to be working as the more he thought and the faster he thought, the faster was his brain working and he felt his memories to reappear in his mind and also felt that force that was trying to limit him to weaken.
Lith thus continued to think as fast as he could and had a lot of rapid thoughts in mind. There were thousands of things he was thinking about at each instant.
It was all a piece of cake for Lith. He was an overthinker and his habit of falling into deep thoughts suddenly ever since he was young was now starting to prove advantageous to him.
Among the thousands of thoughts Lith had, some were…
"There's no way I can die here! I have yet to go on a date with my wives. It's still remaining. I haven't even gone on a honeymoon after marriage. Tsk, tsk, I would have too many regrets if I don't finish this task."
"Also, I haven't seen my wife Alexandra's smile to my heart's content. She has a serious mood almost at all times when she isn't with me. I want to see her be happy and smile even if she's not with me."
"Apart from her, I haven't had the chance to appreciate my wifey Arya's beauty and her divine eyes to my heart's content. Even though I appreciated it once or twice before, I need to do it at least a million more times to convey my point to her that she's indeed very beautiful, perfect, and her eyes are too nice."
"Damn it Arya babe, your blindfold hid your eyes from me and I haven't seen it to my heart's content. I am gonna do it when I get back"
"And also, I have yet to see Lucy finish the hierarchy of the vampires and give a proper suitable way for them to go up the nobility ranks. It had been what, ten years? It's been ten years and she still wasn't able to do it, lolololol. Oh wait, I shouldn't be laughing, hahahahaha!"
"Right, I also need to eat a pizza made by Emmy. The last two times she made pizza, she burnt it. I can't die before I taste a proper pizza made by her."
"Lastly, I haven't thanked mother enough and showered her with all my love and respect. I feel I was somewhat lacking. I'll ensure I properly show her some love, she deserves it."
"There's also Dennis and Ralph and then there's Luna and Noman and Ruben and…"
Lith continued to think and think and eventually…
