Vampire's Slice Of Life

Chapter 219 Situation in the Dream World

“Die!”

The werewolf teen yelled and slashed his sharp claws at the man who was beating a kid a few seconds ago.

He slashed his claws at the man’s neck and blood spurted out, killing the man within a matter of seconds. The blood spread everywhere around. The kid who was getting beaten up a few moments ago was near the man and got his body and face dyed red in the man’s blood.

Despite a gruesome scene happening in front of him, the lifelessness did not wither away from him.

Lith just silently stood at the side and watched the scene. He was trying to analyze everything and figure out the reason for the werewolf teen’s failure. This was important. He couldn’t get the teen out of the Dream World without clearing the situations that lay ahead of them.

A few seconds passed and the man died after painfully struggling for a while. The werewolf teen hadn’t slashed the entire neck of the man and only enough to have him bleed for a while and die.

The werewolf teen, just like Lith, was carefully trying to analyze something. Soon, his body started fading.

“NOOO! WHYYYY! WHhh… hyy… y…”

The teen’s voice, just like his body, faded.

Lith noted that this definitely meant a failed attempt and the teen’s soul must’ve surely taken good damage due to it.

Soon, the world around Lith started revolving. The sky and the earth* turned upside down, the people, shops and everything was stationary but revolving and everything seemed to be getting absorbed into one single point in space.

Soon, Lith’s body went through the same thing and he got absorbed in that point. Everything turned dark for him but within a few moments, everything returned to normalcy.

Lith was once again standing in the middle of a bustling bazaar.

Lith once again made way to the area where the man would beat the kid and the werewolf teen would be. He reached the spot but there was no crowd watching or the kid getting beaten up.

He looked around, trying to find clues and important things. The situation would occur in this place and it was important to know everything that may or may have already happened.

Soon, Lith saw the kid running and behind him was the man chasing him. The kid had nothing on him, at least that’s what Lith could see, and he was running with a panicked look.

The man caught up to the kid right at the center of the bazaar and held him by the collar. He picked him up and brought his eyes to his own level. “Little thief, where do you think you’re running to?”

“I– b-believe me. I didn’t s-steal any t-thing.” The kid had a fearful expression on his face as he said that.

The man slapped the kid’s face and said, “little runt, don’t fucking play with me! I know you stole my wallet!”

The kid had tears in his eyes and with the same fearful and panicked tone he repeated the same things again. The man kept slapping him all the while and this repeated for a few times.

The man threw the kid on the ground and spit on him. He then said, “shitty little kid, do you think I would fall for such a prank? Fucking thief piece of shit. You said something about your family right? You know what, little runt, I think your whole family that sleeps on the streets across is like that. A thief piece of shit. Fucking homeless beggers.” The man spit on him again.

The man then started kicking the kid around and after a few minutes of getting beaten up, the kid’s entire being turned lifeless. He just lay on the ground like a piece of trash and kept getting kicked by the man.

Soon, the werewolf teen returned and he once again did the same actions as before. However, this time he killed the man directly and didn’t wait for him to bleed out.

The world around Lith started revolving once again after the man died, and within a few moments, he was back at the starting point.

Lith hurried this time and went to look for more clues. He came close to a bread shop near the center of the bazaar and here the man was buying bread.

Lith looked around to see where the kid was and saw him running towards the man buying the bread. The kid reached the man and tugging the ends of the man’s sleeves, he begged.

“Sir, please sir, spare a few nickels to me. Please sir. My family hasn’t had food in ages and they are on the verge of their deaths. Please sir.”

The man pushed the kid away and said, “fuck off, beggar.”

The kid begged once again and the man pushed him strongly this time. The kid then left the man alone and went to another person. The other person was kind enough and gave the kid some nickels. The kid begged a few more people and amassed enough money to buy some bread and milk.

He was about to go to the bread shop, a different one this time and buy some for his family when he heard someone shout.

“THERE YOU ARE! FUCKING THIEF!”

The kid turned around and saw the man who pushed him away near the bread shop shouting in his direction. He could roughly guess that the call was for him. The kid panicked and ran because he knew he would get beaten up even if he was guilty.

The man chased after him and caught him at the center of the bazaar. He beat him up like before and the werewolf teen arrived and pierced his heart and killed him.

Everything reverted back due to the situation failing once again and Lith was once again back to the starting point.

“Interesting. The situation is much easier to solve than I thought it would be. I wonder what’s going on in that werewolf te– uh… I think that guy’s name was Sheng, if I recall correctly. Yeah, so, I wonder what’s going on in Sheng’s head to do something stupid like this. Why does he think killing in different ways is the key to clear the situation? Is he stupid?”

Lith talked to himself while moving towards the center of the bazaar. There was no problem speaking out loud like that since it didn’t matter if people around him heard it or not. This was a dream, nothing was real. Even his own and Sheng’s bodies weren’t real.

Lith soon reached the center of the bazaar and waited for Sheng to arrive. This time, he was going to pull him out of this mess by having him clear this situation up.
