Vampire's Slice of Life

With Lith's provocation and having his pride being sullied before, King Nishkavert lost all his cool and screamed like a madman, running up to Lith to tear him to a million pieces.

Lith placed his dominant foot back and took on a martial stance, ready to erupt any moment when that blob of muscles reached him.

"AHHHHH!" Nishkavert screamed while running and placing his entire energy into his punch.

In his mad state, he really thought that he would be able to survive a head-on collision in front of Lith.

Nishkavert couldn't be more wrong and as he reached close, Lith slightly touched the guy's fist and directed him back to the straight path he was running at, avoiding his punch.

Well, even though Nishkavert couldn't be more wrong on surviving a head-on collision in front of Lith, this time he did due to Lith's mercy.

What was going on in Lith's mind, only he knew.

…..

A chamber full of runes.

"GARRRRHHH! CHIEF, HOW MUCH LONGER!?!" A cloaked figure yelled on top of his lungs.

"A BIT MORE! A BIT MORE! THE SUMMONING IS ALMOST DONE!" The old chief yelled back.

"AHHHH! GIVE IT YOUR ALL ALLIES!!" Another cloaked figure shouted.

In response to him cheering, the rest of the figures shouted:

"HYAAAAAA!"

With such a shout, their energy output increased multiple folds despite their fatigue and the summoning circle grew much brighter than ever.

…..

The madman Nishkavert charged like an angry bull once again when spared.

People spectating couldn't help but shake their heads with slight sadness. This was their King and he appeared so grand and mighty, but look at him now, he seemed no less than an animal.

The spectators had no clue as to why was this happening and even as to who Lith was and how could he defeat the King, but being the peasants they were, they shut their mouths and simply watched their King run charge towards his death.

As Nishkavert came close, this time around, Lith didn't avoid him.

With a loud booming sound, Lith punched the guy's chest, breaking his ribcage, and sent him flying.

Nishkavert spewed blood mid air and with a loud thud, fell on the ground, seemingly lifeless.

The light in his eyes was gone and as blood continued to ooze out from his chest and orifices, everyone could make out that he was dead.

Lith walked close to the dead guy and in the meantime, looked at the crowd and said, "This was your king… poof… killed in one shot."

Lith did hand gestures along with making sounds to show how the king had died and to bring about a more dramatic expression.

Looking at the people around him, he continued, "Remember, this could be you any minute. You've heckled at me and tried to protect this guy, a price has to be paid."

The people shuddered at this comment from Lith and fell completely silent.

Reaching the guy and ignoring him, Lith smirked at the crowd and went on, saying, "Don't worry though, I'm benevolent and…"

…..

At the chamber of runes.

"AHHHHHH! ALMOST THERE! ALMOST THERE!"

"PUT IN ALL YOUR EFFORTS! THIS IS IT!" The chief yelled out loud.

With being tired to the bone, the figures in the chamber applied one last push and gave it their all, making the summoning circle glow bright enough to illuminate the whole room.

Unlike the past, this time the runes in the room began glowing as well due to being activated and made the cloaked figures know that they were doing the right thing.

Finally, after a few minutes, the summoning circle flashed with a bright white light and everything dimmed down immediately.

The cloaked figures passed out from over exertion and the dimly lit chamber of runes was now fully dark, with nothing visible to the naked eye.

…..

Colosseum, Dushkarbor.

Lith was manipulating a whole crowd into submitting to him fully. He was testing his crowd control skills he learnt from his aunt and so far, they seemed to be doing good.

A few minutes passed with him giving the speech and suddenly, Lith felt something off and frowned.

In a matter of seconds, he could feel something behind him and turning around, saw the dead King's corpse twitching.

"Hmm?" Surprised to know that this guy was still alive, Lith stared at him from a distance. His guard was up and he was prepared to fight, just in case the situation called for it.

Nishkavert's fingers twitched and the hole in his chest was getting repaired slowly. The wounds on his body also seemed to be disappearing and after a few minutes, his body twitched and he slowly regained his senses.

"Urgh… What… Stinging sensation?" Nishkavert said in a hoarse voice.

Surprised by this, Lith continued to look at him and analyzed what he was doing.

Nishkavert slowly got up and the spectators gasped in horror as they saw a dead corpse coming back to life.

They all screamed, but with Lith raising his hand, they shut up immediately and fell silent.

These were the crowd control skills Lith possessed and it wasn't easy to achieve. The amount of submission required was astronomical, but Lith ended up achieving it quite easily due to his abilities.

Finally, as Nishkavert stood up fully, he looked around and patting himself everywhere, said, "Where am I? What is this feeling? Why do I seem… tall? Huh? Muscles?"

Nishkavert seemed like a psychopath, patting onto his own body and checking his own muscles.

The spectators were already horrified with the corpse coming back to life, but now they could see that their ex-king had lost memories too. This was another source of panic for them, but with Lith here, they didn't scream anymore and watched quietly.

Lith, really surprised with the development, smiled and thought to himself, 'A reincarnation? Amazing.'

Thinking so, Lith walked to the now alive Nishkavert and placed his hand on his shoulder.

"Are you alright?" Lith asked with a smile.

Nishkavert turned to look at the person that had just appeared in front of him and as he had a look at Lith, a sudden sharp pain assaulted his mind.

"Ahhhh!" Nishkavert held his head and screamed. "What is this sharp pain in my head!?"

"Oh?" Lith let out an amused chuckle. "The memories of old body are returning to him, it seems."

Smiling and shaking his head, Lith patted Nishkavert's head and said, "It's a pity that I'm in a rush and can't fully study a reincarnation. But no worries, I'll have more opportunities in the future."

BURST!

With one head pat, Nishkavert's head burst open.

[Ding!]
