Vampire's Slice Of Life

Chapter 203 Cowmpanion

In a desert region.

It was about to be night once again for Ralph. He had been wandering around the desert region for two days and had spent one whole night and almost two days here.

Ralph’s clothes were in tatters and he appeared to be in a sorry state. His demeanor, however, made him appear anything but sorry. He had a calm and serious look on his face as he gazed at the sky above him.

It was about to rain.

Yesterday night, it was some sort of mucus that rained down. The mucus, as soon as it touched the ground, melted the sand. Ralph didn’t know about it but being on guard constantly, he managed to create a barrier around him to protect himself.

He however was still a few seconds late to react and a drop fell on his arm. The mucus didn’t melt Ralph’s hand but instead started eroding it and to stop this process, he had to cut off his arm.

A saving grace for Ralph was that he was from the Lust Family of the demons, only his family had the traits of healing and regeneration among all the other demons, and thanks to that, his hand regenerated back within a few minutes.

Ralph avoided the mucus rain by casting a space barrier around himself. The mucus never touched Ralph and instead fell on the ground. Ralph expended a lot of his spiritual power for keeping the barrier up.

The mucus rain melted the sand all around the desert region and due to it, the ground became piping hot and emitted a bright red luster, lighting up the entire desert region. This place here resembled like hell, according to Ralph as he saw the darkness of night blending in with the red lustrous brightness of the melted sand.

The mucus rain stopped after a while and some sort of milky white rain fell. This time, this rain didn’t harm Ralph but it dirtied his clothes and himself. A few minutes passed and Ralph saw the melted sand to have become shiny transparent glass.

The entire desert region had become glass. It rained again and changes occurred in the glass. Except for the mucus rain, no other type of rain harmed Ralph. But it did cause changes to the environment.

When it was daytime again, the desert region was back to normal as if nothing happened last night. Had it not been for Ralph’s clothes being in tatters due to that and him having a new arm, even he wouldn’t have believed that such changes took place.

The day had passed with Ralph trying to get out of the desert region but he wasn’t able to. The night was about to arrive once again and Ralph was waiting to see what would happen today.

A few moments passed.

Night dawned but there were no signs of any mucus rain occurring. A few seconds passed and Ralph started hearing some strange noises. In the next instant, Ralph saw the sand below his feet rise and within the next few seconds, the sand rose high up in the air and got mixed with the cloud.

It was reverse raining sand!

…

“HAAAAH!” Dennis shouted and slashed his sword at the firakan and protected the cow from getting injured.

One firakan after another was coming towards Dennis and attacking him. The firakans seemed to be of a low level and would die with just one or two of his slashes but the problem lay with the fact that there were just too many of them.

If Dennis were to count, he had killed at least two hundred or so firakans, but there seemed to be no end to them. The firakans had only three types of attack. One was Ice Spike, which they created by flapping their wings at a fast speed; another was Icy Breath, an attack they did via their mouth and lastly, it was Bite, for which they once again used their mouths.

Dennis had been bitten many times by the firakans and also took hits from ice spikes. He had to not only fight the firakans, he also had to protect the cow as the cow couldn’t defend well against ice spikes.

However, the cow could kill many firakans in close combat and their icy breath had no effect on it. This helped Dennis a lot and took away a good portion of firakans to fight off him.

Dennis had destruction flames on the blade of his sword from time to time and with the help of it, one slash from it would result in the killing of two such monsters. To not get a toll on his body and to have spiritual power recovered and not get depleted totally, Dennis ensured to use spells in a minimal amount.

The firakans were too many and according to his calculations, even if he did use all of his spiritual power, he definitely won’t be able to kill all of them.

Dennis slashed his sword at one firakan after another and charged forward along the slope of the snowy mountains. The cow followed him. While moving forward, Dennis turned his head to look at the cow, but while doing so, his hands didn’t stop slashing at the firakans.

“Oi dumb cow, keep enduring, we are gonna make it. I am gonna have to rely on you a bit. You’re now my…” Dennis paused and grinned.

The cow was hearing everything but currently, it was holding a firakan’s neck with its two limbs and was trying its best to not let it bite. It couldn’t look at Dennis and thus missed looking at his grin.

Dennis could tell that the cow was paying attention to his words and smiled widely knowing it. He slashed his sword once again and after killing a firakan, he said to the cow:

“You’re now my cowmpanion. Hahahahaha!”

Destruction flames spread over Dennis’s sword and he slashed it at one firakan after another killing multiple of them within seconds.

Pui!

The cow pressed the neck of the firakan it was holding tightly and killed it after hearing Dennis’s lame pun.

“Moo!” The cow mooed in annoyance and punched a few firakans.

That’s right! How can this guy have the time to joke at this moment? He should focus fully on defeating the firakans and not slack off!

The duo of one vampire and one cow kept fighting firakans, a species of icy flying monsters, and charged forwards in a snowy mountain range.

…

Lith was flying over the glaciers and while doing so, halfway through, he found some footprints of some giant monster. He had no idea whose footprints they were but since he had been doing nothing but cultivating, Lith decided to slay some monsters and warm up for the upcoming main event that was about to occur.

Everything until this point was in no way anything challenging. Whatever the students were going through currently, it was just the academy’s way of having them warm up. There was nothing too challenging for these thirteen-year-olds. The essence of the tournament was yet to come.

The real tournament was yet to begin.
