Vampire's Slice Of Life

-Finda vassal, believer.

-A vassal with pure Earth and Dark element coursing through their veins.

"It will be done, mother goddess."

Yudor bowed and left to find a person the goddess had mentioned to him.

In a few days, he found the apothecary store called Jujuban's Jamaeis. It was quite famous and the items sold were of great quality and the prices weren't exorbitant either.

Yudor found the person the goddess had asked him to. It was a mature lady brewing potions behind the counter.

This was the last task the goddess had asked him to do. Prior to this, the tasks were quite challenging.

The goddess wanted the Giants to worship her. People had the doctrines of Mother Helvia deeply ingrained in their souls and couldn't part ways to worship someone else.

Hence, Yudor devised a plan to target young children, who still weren't used to these doctrines.

Yudor found a promising young man. It had been many decades ago.

He began interacting with this young man, and slowly instilled the doctrines of Mother Seia and replaced Mother Helvia's.

This sort of job was done on my kids at a young age. There were a lot of them and Yudor couldn't do everything himself. Thus, he gathered a few strong Giants with a dark past, brainwashed them into believing Helvia was evil, and coaxed them onto his side and made them extremists.

Born was a new organization working right under the nose of the Giant Chief.

With new members, Yudor created a new wave of religion. He then went to check up on the promising young man and found that he indeed had great talents.

However, his sword wasn't sharp enough. It needed refining.

Yudor put together a master plan of giving the young man a promising life and snatching it away from him.

A girl was secretly groomed by his organization into falling in love with the young man. She was not aware of being manipulated and poisoned slowly.

This girl then went on to becthe young man's wife. The young man was doing well in life, had kids even, but then, tragedy struck as his wife got sick.

The young man did his best to help her heal, but it was all for naught.

It was then that this secret organization of Yudor's stepped in and helped him, showing a promising future and sweet whispers of encouragement and help for his sick wife.

The promising young man then went on to becthe new Chief, who was now alone in this society with his sick wife.

This was the story of Khimav and Yvonne who lost their everything and were ignorant of being manipulated from a young age.

After making the young man a chief, Yudor took a breather. Most of the people had been converted to becMother Seia's believers and only a few were remaining.

Making the young man the chief was the right call, and it had accelerated things greatly.

Only a few more steps were remaining and the entire Giant race would be worshiping Mother Seia.

It was at this point that Yudor got a final mission from the goddess.

She wanted a vassal for herself. He kidnapped Nika's aunt and killed her husband who was being a bother in the dungeon.

Had the lady and him not resisted, he wouldn't have died.

In any case, after turning the lady into the goddess' vassal, Yudor somewhat retired and led a slow life.

Until, this unfortunate day appeared in his life where he encountered Lith.

…..

'What a headache…'

Lith rubbed his temples. Too many conspiracies were happening in this Giant Kingdom. The political drama here was more as compared to the Humans, who Lith thought to be at the pinnacle of all.

Angels, Demons, Dragons, Elves, Vampires, Werewolves, Witches… all these races did not have such troubles in their societies.

Hierarchy in these races worked on the basis of merit and power.

The Vampire one was the simplest of them all. No one needs to conspire to rise higher in ranks. Just improve your cultivation, challenge a noble clan, defeat them, and voila, you are now at the top of Vampire Society.

The world was in a golden era of peace. Only the Humans caused trouble and this usually stayed within their own continent. They were their biggest enemies.

Speaking of this world, Lith was surprised to learn the nof this world being [Origin].

Names weren't given on a whim and it was especially rare to have a one word nfor a world.

Names were usually four plus words long for an average planet. With this one being called [Origin] along with it being a one word, things were definitely suspicious.

Lith decided to check up on it later and find out why it was named as such.

Coming back to the present, Lith sighed once again as he looked at the Giant called Yudor.

Was he really a bad guy? Was he really to be blamed for doing what he had done?

If Lith was in his place, could he have done anything better?

There were many questions popping up in his mind and they weren't the least bit healthy.

The line between good and evil was thin. It was always a subjective matter when one looked at it.

Calling Yudor a villain, evil, wasn't right. But it also wasn't right to call him good.

Pitiful. This was what described him the best.

This Mother Seia gave her word to bring back his wife and unborn child to life. It had been many centuries since their death. Their soul might've dissipated already or they had been reincarnated into different people.

By no means was Lith a virtuous young man. He wasn't obliged to help this guy and he also had no reason to do so. Things happen. Life's hard. It's just what it is.

This was what Lith would chant and move on…

…had it been any other day in the past, that is.

The current Lith was not having the thoughts of letting Yudor be as is and moving on.

A slight change had occurred in his consciousness.

'Who am I?'

'I am the Vampire Prince — Lith Evure. Heir of the Vampire Royal Family; husband of the Vampire Queen, Regent Queen, Death Dragon Empress, Seraphim Principal of the world's biggest academy, ancient Vampire clan's last standing heir; lover of the Elven Queen, Elven Princess, Ruler of Demons and Devils; one chosen by the heavens; one who's the bearer of the Phoenix providence; Master of a SuprDevil, the last Yellow Phantom, a SuprRank Witch, an otherworldly demon, a Jinx, a Charm, a Cerberus; a Legendary Chef, and the youngest King Rank to ever exist in history!'

'I have suffered through the strongest tribulations and I have such a strong identity. I can kill anyone I want to without lifting a finger. I can erase anyone who dares to offend me. With such power at bay, there's no need to look at a speck of dust that lies in the cocoon beneath me.'

'I should chuuni as fuck, and like an edgy teen in his rebellious phase when thinking of things in such a manner. It's really shitty.'

'Three centuries have passed since my arrival in this world. I am not even an adult Vampire and yet, I've already forgotten most of my humanity and virtue.'

Lith slightly distanced himself from the cocoon and stared at the clear skies of this world. He raised his hand towards it, as if wanting to capture the sun in his palms.

'When and how did I beclike this? Why does life not matter toanymore? Why have I becso selfish? I chose to walk on the path of an anti-hero, but isn't it too cruel to leave things such as this?'

'Karma is a strong principle that works in this world and the entire universe. If I beca person who ignores the needy and looks at them with disgust… will there be a day when the shappens to me?'

'The likelihood of such a thing happening is really low, but not zero. My mother's a God, things such as poverty would never be known to the likes of me. She has achieved a lot in her life so thatand my sister could fly high. I don't need to care about mortals or pitiful people like Yudor. I have everything and helping them serves no benefit.'

'Yet… my heart aches.'

Lith clutched his shirt near his heart.

'If I do nothing and walk away, nothing will happen to me. There are no consequences to my actions due to my powerful background. However…'

'…Will I be able to live with it? Will I not feel sguilt later on in life that I didn't help this dude even though I had the power and it doesn't costanything?'

'What reason is there forto not help? And what reason is there forto help him?'

''If I am going to ignore him and let him die, why am I doing it? Didn't I feel great pity for Sylvia and Keith? Didn't I help them by taking them under me? Why did I do that? I had no reason to do so. I could have killed Sylvia on the spot for harming my favorite tomboy and live my leisurely life, but I didn't.'

'Sigh…'

Lith turned around to gaze back at the cocoon.

'If I don't help him now, there wouldn't be a bigger hypocrite than me. If I don't care about being a hypocrite and don't give two shits about what the world, the universe, the heavens thought of me… I could just walk away and nothing would happen.'

'Yet…'

Lith squatted down beside the cocoon which had shrunk to the size of Fei by now.

'…I want to help you…'
