Vampire's Slice Of Life,Chapter 142 Liam makes a move - Read free novels online

Lith’s dorm, Abalax sky island.

Lith’s goal was to catch as many of these balls as he could and place them in a basket he was holding in one hand while the other was free to catch the balls. He had to switch hands every minute.

He could dodge them if he wanted but the goal was to collect 50 balls in 10 minutes. It was painful to get hit and catch it but Lith had a high pain tolerance and it didn’t matter much if he got hit.

Arya threw tennis balls at roughly 100m/s from a distance of 50 metres away from Lith and this was how their training was going on.

Lith got hit by the tennis balls many times but somehow managed to collect 42 tennis balls by the end of 10 minutes.

“Hmm, not bad, but you could’ve done better.” Arya said, counting the number of tennis balls in Lith’s basket.

“How so?” Lith asked while putting on a pondering expression.

“You could’ve done…” Arya started explaining how he could’ve avoided a few things and taken a different approach to some things and finished lecturing him after 10 minutes.

“Understood, teacher.” Lith nodded his head after Arya finished with her lecture.

He said goodbye to her and went to his room to take a shower. After waking up, he had lunch and started training with Arya, which lasted 4 hours. It was 5 pm now and during that time, if he, together with Ralph and Dennis were in the academy, they would hang out in the park and have snacks together. He intended to do the same because he found sitting in the hostel to be boring.

Lith began getting ready to leave for the park after showering.

…

An hour later.

“Lith Evure…” a black-haired, blue-eyed teen muttered, looking at Lith sitting on the grass in the park, who was hanging out with Ralph and Dennis from afar.

The teen had been stalking Lith for many days and he realised one thing, that Lith always hung out with his friends in the park at 5pm. At such a time, the park was supposed to be crowded, but since the exams had been postponed, many students were busy preparing for them and there was hardly anyone around.

The park had very few people, including Lith and his friends. Since there were too few people, there weren’t any academy security staff around. It was a waste of manpower to monitor an empty area and the whole sky island was under monitoring anyway, so there really was no need.

“I’ve been working hard for so many days, the humiliation you made me suffer that day. I thought of returning it to you a hundred fold. However, after assassinating so many, I’ve come to realise that scums should just be one shot killed instead.

There’s no point in me wasting my time to bother humiliating you back. Just… die for me, will you?” The teen muttered softly and gave an evil grin.

The teen walked into an alley near the park and stood in the darkness of the alley. He took out a shotgun from his spatial ring, a talisman slip, a small black box and a round bracelet. The teen wore the bracelet, put the talisman slip between his teeth, dropped the black box on the ground and held his shotgun in a shooting position.

He stepped onto the small black box. As soon as he did so, the black box turned to a silvery radiance and a small portal opened up in front of him. The teen peered into it and spotted Lith sitting with his companions, chatting as usual.

‘All set.’ The teen thought to himself and began counting down internally, ‘3… 2… 1…’

BANG!

The teen pulled the trigger and instantly bit the talisman slip he was clutching between his teeth. After shooting into the portal after aiming at Lith from it, he vanished from his place quickly.

…

Lith was sitting in the park, hanging out with Ralph and Dennis. He was eating chips while Ralph was sipping on chocolate milk and Dennis was eating a burger.

They were chatting together. It was mostly Ralph and Dennis explaining all the things that happened in the classes and Lith was listening to them intently.

Suddenly, Lith felt as if someone was watching him, but before he could react, the bracelet he was wearing emitted a silvery brilliance and…

CLANG!

The sound of metal hitting metal was heard and it was loud enough to grab the attention of Ralph, Dennis and a few people nearby.

Ralph and Dennis had no idea what happened and what this noise was. They saw Lith’s expression change and the next second, he was covered in a silver brilliance followed by the sound they heard.

The silvery brilliance faded and they could see Lith facing in the opposite direction before they could respond. They then watched Lith pick up and examine an object from the ground.

“Your highness, what just happened now?” Dennis asked worriedly.

“An assassination.” Lith replied with his brows furrowed and in a neutral tone while looking at the object in his hand.

The object he was holding was a bronze bullet that had nine glaring red roses inscribed on it. He thought of it as the brand that produced this bullet but he was shocked to see that the bullet was undamaged even though it hit such a powerful barrier.

Lith’s mother had given him the bracelet he was wearing. With it, he’d be protected from any sneak attacks, and he was glad he had it on him right now. He would have died today if it had not been the case.

‘Who must’ve done this sneak attack?’ Lith thought to himself while gazing at the bullet in his hand. His thoughts continued…

‘Isn’t the academy well guarded? Hmm, even though it is, it could be done by someone among the students or staff. I wonder who wants me dead and for what reason. Is it due to some conflict with someone? Do I have any such? Let’s see…’
