Vampire's Slice of Life

The maids were shocked to hear such a comment from Lith.

Their shock stemmed from the fact that their master wanted to go on suicide mission and get himself crushed spectacularly in the hands of the King.

The King was the strongest person ever to exist and there were legends of him once destroying a mountain peak just to have tea on it with his friend.

In front of such a barbarian, their Master, whom the ladies thought to be a sophisticated and delicate person, would not last for even a single moment.

The maids weren't thinking ill or disrespecting Lith, rather, they were concerned for his well being.

He looked really different from most men with his slight androgynous looks. His face and body barely had any blemishes or scars, his muscles weren't buldging and overall, he looked really lean in comparison to everyone.

Despite being tall, Lith was half the size of the rest of the men. His strength was something the ladies didn't know much about even though they had sparred with him countless times.

The ladies were weaker than the men in the village, but that was before Lith's arrival.

With Chi cultivation in tow, his own maids had gotten exponentially stronger than rest and they didn't have the slightest clue about it.

Thus, the maids still thought of themselves to be weak and also considered Lith as weak as well due to him never winning against them.

Such complex and deep concerns weren't shared to Lith as the ladies didn't want to hurt their Master. They thus only expressed their shocked looks and asked Lith to not have such foolish thoughts.

If Lith were to know the thought processes of these ladies, they definitely would not be able to sit without pain for the coming few days.

"The Queen will get fucked, but… It won't be me who'll do that." Lith clarified.

"Huh?" The maids were confused.

While continuing to slowly pound Tessa, Lith explained, "The testing and everything seems like a big hassle. I'd rather not waste my time with that. Instead…"

Lith's reasoning was, why waste time doing something that could be achieved in a mere few steps?

As far as the conditions were mentioned, the testing and all was for men, not women.

Just as Lith stated this fact to the maids, they opened their eyes wide at a sudden realization.

Tessa, turning completely around, looked Lith in the eyes and said, "Master, you don't mean…"

Lith nodded lightly in response. "I mean exactly that."

Tessa facepalmed while the rest of the ladies were shocked as well.

Joselyn, sitting at the sides, went into deep thoughts and then said softly, "I mean… It would work and it also isn't considered lumo. But, will the Queen let us touch her?"

Lith chuckled at her response. "Of course she will. You just have to do what I say and it's a done deal."

With that, Lith began planning on capturing the Queen and took a step closer to world domination.

…..

A dimly lit chamber full of Runes.

A few people in cloaks with haggard looks were currently doing a summoning.

They seemed like they would collapse any moment now, but the determination on their faces said otherwise.

"Chief, why is it much harder than before!?" Someone yelled and asked.

"I do not know!" The chief yelled back.

"How much longer!?"

"Just a bit more!"

After such a short conversation, the cloaked figures went back to do the summoning and didn't utter a single word more.

…..

The different teams walked away after the opening ceremonies and thus began the regionals.

There were a total of thirteen provinces in the Kingdom of Nishkavert and Dushkarbor belonged to the province called Kilshkarbor.

Each province was allowed a maximum of five teams and they were labelled as A, B, C, D, and E.

The A teams competed in the A group of the regionals and likewise, the rest of the teams participated in their respective groups to get to the main stages.

There were many competitions and it would be boring to watch them all, so a few strong teams were selected beforehand and placed into an elite S group.

This group was going to battle right now and with no questions asked, the winner would be sent straight to the semi-finals.

There were a total of ten teams from the thirteen provinces and Dushkarbor was one of them.

On the King's command, the S group's regional competition finally started with two provinces coming on the ground and taking their position.

All were men in the arena and didn't interest the Vampire Prince who was watching from the audience seat.

"When will it be our turn?" Lith asked Joselyn on his lap.

Three ladies were already filled, it was just Joselyn and Solina left now.

"We're placed in the third round." Joselyn answered.

"Alright." Lith said simply and continued to watch.

The three burly men in each team were warming up and giving out death stares to the opponents. It was as if they had tons of killing intent and were showcasing how easily they could rip each other apart.

The amount of stupidity in their technique was laughable, but instead of laughing, Lith actually found this concerning.

'These suckers aren't going to survive if someone invades them.' Lith thought to himself.

It was no wonder that a summoning was done and a hero was needed to fight off against the stronger foes.

DING!

The bell rang and so began the fight.

Lith turned to look at the King to see how he would react to the ongoing fight between six burly men.

The six had just exchanged a series of punches and kicks with all of them properly executed.

Even though these guys had no killing intent or magic, their bodily strength was no joke and Lith could feel the vibrations of the hits far in the audience.

The King's expression was starting to light up as he saw the first fight and with that, Lith could guess that this competition was being done to entertain this dude, and there was nothing wrong with it really.

It's just that, it was quite boring to watch.

Though, to the King, it didn't seem boring and he watched with an interested look throughout the session.

One burly dudes group won while the other lost and then came the second group which at least had one delicate looking female in it.

The King seemed to have lost some interest in the group with a woman in it.

Noticing this, Lith couldn't help but think, 'Is this guy into macho hairy men or what?'

There was no telling what was what and Lith tried to ignore the man and watch the fight.

There were some good things going on with the addition of a female in the fight. She was using some healing techniques on her mates while they did their level best to occupy the others and attack them.

In the end, this team with a healer won and the other three lost.

Now, it was finally showtime!

Lith filled Joselyn up and covering himself properly with his white cloth, jumped over the walls and reached the arena.

Solina and Milia followed him from behind and his team stopped walking when they were right in front of their opponents, another group of macho scar-faced men.

The macho men group turned to the royal box and greeted the royalties and Lith's maids, Solina and Milia were about to do the same as well but got stopped by their master.

The King raised an eyebrow at this while the crowd was surprised by Lith's actions.

Lith then shook his head, indicating not to show their respect to the King.

The crowd gasped in shock while the King showed a surprised look.

The Queen's attention was now fully on Lith as well while the men from the opponent team yelled, "THE AUDACITY! YOUR MAJES—"

"Quiet." Lith simply turned his head slightly and giving this guy a side eye, uttered a single word with sheer coldness that sent a chill down the spines of the people near me.

Solina and Milia showed shocked looks when they saw their Master's new expression and wondered, 'How can he act so well?'

They didn't think it was Lith's real side and thought of it to be an act since Lith was usually a very happy-go-lucky sort of person.

The macho men sucked in a cold breath of air and didn't speak further for reasons even they didn't understand.

Lith then ignored these fools and turning to look at the King, said, "King Nishkavert, do you wanna have a duel?"

GASP!

The crowd gasped so hard that some began coughing while others began screaming and shouting.

"WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY!?"

"HE HAS A DEATH WISH!"

"Ohhhhh, someone's gonna die today!"

"We'll be watching the King in action today!"

"PUNISH HIM, KING!"

"DISRESPECT WON'T BE TOLERATED!!"

Various shouts were heard one by one and the colosseum became noisy.

However, the man in question, King Nishkavert, stood domineeringly in his place without having any change in his emotions, a sign of a true ruler who was always calm in every situation.

King Nishkavert looked at Lith and responded in his tough and hoarse voice, "You have the courage, I must admit. But to fight me, you must first pass my test."

The crowd turned silent upon hearing about the infamous tests of King Nishkavert.

Every time, it was a unique test, and was done to help the King not get his time wasted on useless cannon fodders.

"Test?" Lith yawned and said while scratching his balls to show the utmost disrespect. "What if I attack you right about now?"
