Vampire's Slice Of Life Chapter 640: Seeds Sown!

Badum! Badum! Badum!"Huh… Why's my heart beating so fast?"Sitting in a dimly lit room, Lucas said while holding onto his chest.He looked around, wondering what could be the reason, only to find nothing.Lucas was still in Raizen, his residence being close to the Human Ancestor's Palace. This was the safest place in all of the Human Continent and there shouldn't be anyone who would come looking for trouble.Then why was his heart beating so fast? He couldn't help but wonder as he paced to and fro in his room.After a while of thinking and not coming to any proper conclusions, Lucas's restlessness rose further.Having a lot of stress and not being able to do anything, he gave up and sat down on a chair.Lucas covered his face and running his hands through his hair, said with visible frustration, "despite trying everything, nothing is going in the right direction. I haven't had any interaction with those people, not even thought about their names, but I still feel they are somehow involved in everything that went wrong for me."Lucas continued to think of all the things that went wrong and suddenly, when something clicked him, he got up from the chair and went towards the window to look outside.The busy city of Raizen came into his view and people could be seen moving around from one place to another.Looking at them, Lucas knitted his brows and thought, 'A Demigod will never have the powers to alter events to such a high degree. Does that mean my assumptions were wrong? Does this world have a God?'Lucas shook his head. 'Impossible. That shouldn't be the case. That woman should still be a Demigod, a Supreme Rank, and should become a God after a few millennia. But then…'An annoyed look appeared on Lucas's face. '...what is making everything go so wrong!?'Having absolutely no clue whatsoever despite cursing and thinking so much, Lucas took out his phone to check if there's any major event happening in the world.After an hour of going through everything, Lucas found nothing major happening.It was the usual thing in the rest of the world with nothing major happening. As for the Human Continent, there was news that some people were dissatisfied with some people and so were warring. Follow current on novelenglish.net

Wars in the Human Continent were a common occurrence and at all times of the year, there would be some or the other town clashing with its neighbour.Other than the war news, news outlets were talking about which King's daughter was having a birthday party, which event was going to have the most nobles, where the commoners were protesting, and so on.Skimming through these things, Lucas found something interesting.In the villages of a border town at the far East of the country, there were some mishaps happening. People were apparently caught summoning Devils and also for using Black Magic.People in these border towns weren't well educated and being mortals with ambitions to become immortals, they got coaxed into doing weird things by some dark organizations.The people got possessed by devils and went on a killing spree, destroying their own town as well as a few neighbouring ones.They were stopped only after officials from the mainland arrived and detained them. The bordering towns were then cleansed and all things related to Black Magic was confiscated.Although this development may seem a bit omnious, there was nothing of noteworthy in it.The Humans have been doing such things since ages. Humans and Demons were at odds since ancient times and due to the thirst for power, were constantly exploited by the Devils.It was also for this reason that this news was not given much attention. News of some noble's daughter celebrating her birthday was more popular than even wars happening in the Human Continent.After a whole hour of going through news, Lucas found absolutely nothing and his restlessness was still there.Cursing his luck, Lucas decided to go out and do things to calm his mind as well as search for new opportunities to raise his cultivation.*A week passed.Border Town, Human Continent."Dig. Dig. Dig." Lith was squatting down and cheering for Ren, who was digging the ground with his little paws.Ren was happy to do usual dog things but if his mothers were to know that he was being made to do manual labour, Lith probably would have a hard time dealing with them.The golden retriever's snowhite fur was getting dirty as he dig further down in the ground. But once there was a small pit formed, Lith stopped him. Follow current on novel-online.com

He put a small red seed into the pit and cast a few spells above it. Once done, Lith used a cleaning spell and got Ren cleaned."Onto the next spot now." Lith said and walked around the border town.As he walked, he had the attention of the people on him.It was not because he was doing weird things, but because of his looks.Lith had disguised himself to be a wandering adventurer. He was dressed in plain and simple clothes and had even changed his hair color to black and eye color to blue.However, despite the changes and even after being dressed simply, his demeanor and the way he conducted himself was something that made him stand out from the rest.The mortals of the border towns usually didn't have a lot of interaction with people from the mainland and were limited to their own small region. They also knew each other well and looking at Lith, they could guess that he was someone from the mainland who was visiting the border town.Usually only officials would visit these border towns for inspections and that too would happen once in many tens of years. Whenever they visited, they were treated like gods.The only thing that made the people not think of Lith as an official and kowtow in front of him was him completely ignoring the people around him.Officials would usually interact and since Lith wasn't doing so, he may not be one. Such were the thoughts of the people.While Lith attracted a lot of attention onto himself, he wasn't worried about anything and continued to do his thing.Once he was done sowing the seeds, Lith stretched and said, "Nice. Everything is done."He then turned to look at the crowd of people staring at him and smiling, said, "Hey, you guys."The crowd was surprised with Lith suddenly calling them out. They didn't talk back to Lith and just watched him.Lith chuckled. "You bunch seem curious to know what I am upto, right? Well then, since I am in a good mood, I'll explain. Once upon a time…"Lith began with his story telling and slowly but steadily, had every person's attention from the crowd.Lith told the people that he was a small boy from a border town like this one. His parents were killed by the officials from mainland and to exact revenge for them, he left his home in search of immortality and to become stronger. His story touched the hearts of many people, young and old it didn't matter. Follow current on storynovel.net

The older people had seen discrimination happen from their very own eyes when the officials from mainland visited them.Whenever a visit would happen, young girls would be taken to satisfy their needs, people would be treated like slaves, and only when they would be leaving would they drop some gifts that would supposedly give the people a way to become immortals.But in the end, these gifts would be a scam and the people would be left used.The younger ones were educated about this by the older ones and thus, everyone could relate with Lith's story.Lith then told them about a few fake adventures and how he went onto become an immortal and took his revenge.Now that his revenge was done, he felt that he should do something to help other poor people. For this very reason, Lith was now roaming town to town to impart the knowledge of immortality to people which the mainland officials would never do.Lith's story was emotional and made many cry. But at the end, it sparked the fire of ambition within them to become immortals.They cheered for Lith and weren't scared of him anymore.Everyone gathered around Lith and hailed him like a hero. Everyone forgot what he was doing a while ago and finally, news of Lith spread like a wildfire in the neighbouring towns and many come to visit him and get the divine knowledge.Lith was impartial and benevolent. He gave the people knowledge to become immortals and told them to do a few things once they saw a sapling grow in the places where he had sown seeds.Everyone felt happy and a joyous atmosphere was present in the border towns.Amidst this atmosphere, Lith took his leave and looking back at the lights from the town, he smiled and looking at Ren in his arms, said,"The Devil summoning techniques were successful in the village we arrived. The seeds had been sown for the grand event that's about to happen. Are you excited for it, Ren?""Woof!" Ren smiled and shook his tail happily, even though he didn't understand a single word that Lith said.Lith chuckled. He pet Ren and said, "Too bad, you won't get to see it because I am sure your mothers would keep you busy.""Woo…?" Ren tilted his head in confusion.Lith smiled. "We're going back to the place where your mothers are to watch this grand event."Ren froze hearing that. If he was with his mothers, they wouldn't leave him and he would be cuddled to death!"Woof! Woof! Woof!" Ren struggled intensely in Lith's arms hearing that, wanting to be free and not to see his mothers."I am not letting you free, my lad." Lith chuckled evilly and snapped his fingers, teleporting out of the border town."Woooo…oo…" Ren's voice echoed but stopped once Lith was gone.The place Lith was standing turned silent with the only noise coming was from the border town where people were celebrating.
