Vampire's Slice of Life

Miwa's confusion was understandable since Lith said those things out of nowhere.

What was going on in Lith's head, only he knew. The rest just continued to stare at him and see what he was up to.

Looking at Miwa being annoyed, Lith smiled. His guess really wasn't wrong and this girl definitely wanted to go see a big city.

"How long have you been training here for?" Lith asked suddenly.

Miwa's annoyance peaked as Lith asked her another question. She pushed the stick into Lith's body, making him feel some pain, and said, "If you're not here to cause trouble, then go away."

People were busy and had to get their jobs done. Miwa herself was in the middle of training and these guys were just disturbing them.

If possible, Miwa wanted to avoid conflict and get back to training. There was no need for unnecessary fights.

Her comment made Lith rub his chin and then look at Miwa up and down. He wondered what she meant by that comment.

'If you're not here to cause trouble… go away,' she said. Did this mean she wanted Lith to cause trouble? Or did it have some other meaning?

It was a strange comment with many interpretations possible.

Lith looked at Miwa and said, "You're really strange…"

"Huuuh?" Miwa exclaimed with knitted brows. "Are rich young masters like you always looking for trouble?"

The comment made the spectators gasp. They couldn't believe what Miwa had just said to the three people standing near the well.

Everyone could guess that the trio belonged to some powerful clan. They would dare not offend such people, but Miwa didn't seem to understand this, making everybody worry for her.

Contrary to their worries though, Lith looked at Miwa and said with a smile, "Let's go roam in a city together."

Miwa was confused by this and asked, "What—"

Lith held the stick Miwa was pointing at him and twisted it, making Miwa spin.

He then placed his hand on her head to make her stop and said, "Let's have you tour some cities."

"WHAAA—"

With one wind sweeping sound, Lith disappeared from this place along with Miwa, Ralph, and Dennis.

The townsfolk stared at the spot Miwa was at with a dumbfounded expression. Some thought that she was going to die, some thought she was lucky to be taken in by rich young masters while some simply felt pity for her.

Their reactions were mixed, but there was neither Miwa nor the rest to see what was happening and thus it didn't really matter.

…..

Honming City, Velium.

With tall glass buildings, diverse ancient heritage, beautiful landscapes, and large population, Honming was one of the world's best cities to live in.

This city contained everything luxury and was a honeymoon destination for many in the world. It offered great food, nightlife, and a wide range of entertainment to the tourists.

Amidst the bustling city, on a warm afternoon, a group of four walked on the clean streets of Honming.

"Woaaaaah! Is this what a city is!?" A short brown-haired girl in a black samurai outfit exclaimed as she looked around.

This was Miwa, the girl who had just been kidnapped by Lith from the mountain town.

Miwa resisted quite a lot initially, but after understanding that the trio meant no harm, she lowered her guard and tried to accept the things happening.

The very first thing that Miwa did after putting away her resistance was to look around. She was fascinated to find out that she was in a big and expensive city.

Her whole life, she had lived and trained in the countryside, always dreaming to one day visit the cities and tour around.

But she didn't have the money to do so and also had a lot of responsibilities on her shoulders. One of the major responsibilities being her little brother whom she had to babysit.

There were so many things that held her back from touring the world and had also made her character reserved. But with being kidnapped and forced to tour, she was starting to open up to her real self.

Miwa was really happy to be in a city and she just couldn't contain her enthusiasm. She hopped from one place to another and her fascination for this place was so high that she found even a water fountain amazing.

Lith, Ralph, and Dennis were really amused while watching her. Since all three were nobles, they had no idea that a person from the countryside would have such a reaction upon visiting the developed cities.

At first they just watched her from afar, but as Miwa spoke to them and asked a lot of questions on things in the city, they were forcefully involved in things and had to participate.

All of Miwa's questions were really stupid. She asked why there were signs on the streets for various things, why buildings were placed so close despite there being a lot of space, why people walked on the side of the roads and so on.

Since Lith and Dennis weren't the brains of the group, they decisively pushed Ralph to Miwa and had him answer everything for her.

Ralph was more annoyed by Lith and Dennis for doing such a thing than Miwa asking him questions.

He wanted to have them take some accountability too, but both the two seemed to have disappeared suddenly, making Ralph further annoyed.

Ralph roamed with Miwa for a few minutes and explained whatever she asked. While walking, they reached the entertainment district and just as they set foot, they heard a loud whistling sound of a trumpet.

Turning to the source, Ralph and Miwa saw Lith and Dennis wearing big comical glasses and blowing on plastic trumpets.

Dennis was holding a big bucket of popcorn and munching on it while Lith was looking at Ralph and Miwa, questioning them.

A vein popped on Ralph's forehead as he realized that these two were literally slacking!

They dumped all responsibility(Miwa) on him and were slacking! Damn it! Curse these two!

"You know you two should—"

Munch… Munch…

"Oh wow, it tastes light and sweet. Even the popcorn in a city is different from my hometown."

Ralph was interrupted by Miwa's comment.

Turning to the side to look at her, he saw Miwa wearing a comically large pink glasses and munching popcorn from the popcorn tub Dennis was holding.

Another vein popped on Ralph's forehead as he looked at them.

"How do they make these?" Miwa asked Dennis about the popcorn.

Dennis thought about it and said, "I think with their hands."

"Woaaaahh. They use hands and not magic in cities to make popcorn?" Miwa couldn't help but ask.

Such high IQ talks made Ralph dizzy due to how annoyed he had gotten.

He was really going to lash out on everyone for being idiots, but then he suddenly felt a hand on his shoulder.

Slurrrrpp…

Ralph heard a loud slurping sound and turning to the side, saw Lith drinking iced coffee while wearing big red glasses.

Gulping down the coffee, Lith looked at Ralph and said calmly, "Don't stress, everything is daijoubu."

"What the fuck…" Ralph seriously had no more words to say to this.

He expected Dennis and Miwa to be stupid, but Lith too? What in the world was happening today? Why were such high IQ conversations happening around him?

If Ralph didn't have proper control over his body and mind, he really would've collapsed by now due to the outburst of emotions.

Leaving the dumbfounded Ralph aside, Lith went to Miwa and before he could even talk to her, she looked at his drink and asked, "What's that?"

"Oh this? A special iced coff—"

Slurrppp…

Miwa didn't care and took the drink from Lith, slurping everything down in one big suck.

As the coffee flavors spread around her taste buds, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and comment, "This is good. This is really good! What is this?"

It took some time for the trio to realize it, but despite being in a normal town, Miwa had actually not experienced anything because she was basically training her whole life.

Even something as simple as an iced coffee was new to her and she was a literal country bumpkin who was experiencing things.

Miwa was totally at ease despite being kidnapped. She totally considered the trio to be her acquaintances and roamed along with them.

Lith had really made a good decision to bring her here because sometimes, to make a person happy, one only needed to get them a mere iced coffee.

Lith was not expecting anything from Miwa. He really didn't care whether she would join him or not. What mattered was that he found her fascinating and since she only had small wishes such as touring a city and all, he decided to fulfil them.

Why did he do so? There was no reason. He simply felt like it and acted on his thoughts.

Sometimes, one need not think too much. One should just act on impulse and go with the flow.

That's what Lith was doing and so far, by looking at Miwa's happy face, he was quite liking his decision.
