Vampire's Slice Of Life Chapter 415 Anxious Kenzal

"Time to get serious."
As soon as Lith resolved to himself, he eyed the few Rank 9s standing at a distance behind the enemy line. He willed the space elements and directly teleported himself near them.
At this moment…
Lith's wooden spear reached the lady who was still in the midst of restoring her balance. The spear directly pierced the beautiful lady's glabella, killing her instantly.
Lith showed no mercy.
All these years of assassinations and dealing with people had made Lith change and adapt better to his identity. Not to mention his mother had played a big role in turning his moral views upside down.
It was safe to say he wasn't a human anymore. But yes, he definitely did have some humanity and morals still left in him despite becoming a full fledged vampire.
Lith teleported directly in front of an old man that was a Rank 9. He sensed that this man was slightly more powerful than the others and so decided to take him out first.
The old man was in a Shaolin robe, more correctly called Kasaya. Despite looking old, being bald, having a long white beard, and some wrinkles on his face, the man had a lean and well built figure.
,m "Going to fight me, kid?" The old man saw Lith appear in front of him and asked with a smile.
His hands were behind his back and he was looking at Lith with a small smile.
Lith didn't answer and simply sent a light kick towards the man's face.
The old man blocked it and with a smug expression, said:
"Youngster, Is this the best you can do?"
The old man wasn't being cocky but was testing how Lith would react when provoked.
Hearing that, Lith's neutral expression didn't change and without replying to the old man, Lith decided to speak with his actions.
He channeled the force of his body towards his leg and it started moving towards the old man's face. The old man had a smile on his face but soon it faded. A neutral expression appeared on his face before it turned into a frown and finally into… worry.
The old man felt great pressure on his forearms and it felt as if his bones would break up at any moment now. But thanks to his years of martial training, he had strong bones and could withstand Lith's force.
Noticing the worried look on the old man's face and how his full attention was on blocking his kick, Lith flashed a small smile and twisted his body in the direction of the kick.
He punched the man on his chest, then rotated his body and sent a back kick with his other leg and sent the man flying. The man grunted in pain but nobody was able to hear it as he was sent flying far away within a few moves.
"Don't focus on testing the enemy during a direct clash." Lith said softly and teleported close to another Rank 9.
Always know about your enemy, but before you clash head-on with them. Only then would things be advantageous.
The old man thought of Lith as someone strong and judging from how young Lith appeared, the old man knew that he was a genius. Thus, he decided to test Lith out rather than focusing on killing him.
This was war, not some school classroom for him to test like this. These thoughts were what went inside Lith's head.
'Is everyone stupid here? Do they not understand that they're at war?' Lith thought to himself as he looked at the seven Rank 9s standing on guard and looking at Lith even as the eighth Rank 9 slammed on the ground. A small crater formed from the impact and as the dust settled one could see his prone body lying in it.
Lith shook his head after a few seconds and decided to not dwell much on it. He teleported again and went close to his new target.
This time he didn't waste time and went straight for the kill.
The other Rank 9s noticed this and instead of running away, they all looked at each other and nodded their heads. They all came to a conclusion that they need to band together and attack before the situation turns for the worst.
They did as they thought and attacked Lith while he was busy trying to stab the person he had just teleported in front of in the head and kill him.
Lith was the topmost person in his own Rank and there was nobody in this world of same, similar, or lower rank that would be able to beat Lith. It was no shocker that he was able to suppress these people easily when they were all in the same rank.
Lith killed the guy in front by stabbing his head and after being done with it, he went to fight the five Rank 9s who banded together and were coming at him to cause injuries and kill him.
But…
It was without any surprise that Lith ended up suppressing them all with just a sword in his hand. There were no other accessories on him except that and it too was an ordinary one and not anything expensive.
If your work can be done with minimal equipment, why bother to use more stuff? Plus, these people that were about to die weren't worthy of being killed with any of the high grade weapons Lith possessed.
A few moments later, without a doubt, Lith ended up killing those five Rank 9s. He then went towards the old man who wanted some fun in this battle and killed him as well.
After clearing up the trash, Lith went back in the air and watched his squad fight the remaining people.
Ralph and Dennis were in the midst of fighting other Rank 8s and though they weren't too afraid of things, having so many people attack at once was taking a toll on them slightly.
As for the other disciples, they were starting to feel exhausted due to continuously attacking and defending.
Nevertheless, Lith didn't help them out yet. Firstly, he had no benefit in doing so and secondly, this big battle would help Ralph and Dennis sharpen their skills and intervening meant taking this opportunity away from them.
While he watched them, in the courtyard of Senzal Clan, Senzal was looking at the screen with a slightly amused expression.
"That's a Half Saint there?" He couldn't help but ask.
Peter was right beside him and he looked at the screen as well and answered, "I don't think so. He doesn't have that immortal type aura around him."
"Half Saints are not immortals. They are pseudo immortals." Senzal corrected Peter.
"Yeah, I know. But I do not sense the aura of a Half Saint coming from him. He's probably a strong Rank 9." Peter said calmly.
"Who is he?" Senzal asked.
Peter shrugged and said, "I have no idea. I guess we can ask the witches about it."
Hearing the word 'witches' made Senzal's mood turn sour. He looked at Peter and said, "Witches? It's more like bitches. Greedy fucking bitches. They don't know anything but money. Do you not know how much they charged us for a small army?"
Hearing that Peter shut up. He knew he had hit a sore spot.
Senzal continued, "Anyway, we won't take help from the witches until absolutely necessary. We're gonna exhaust all our funds if we use their services. Better to use our brains and strategize well."
"As you wish, Clan Head." Peter just agreed with whatever Senzal said. At the end of the day, he was just a general and not someone who called the shots.
The two continued to watch this conflict unfold and in their neighboring territory, that is, the Kenzal Clan territory, Kenzal was pacing back and forth anxiously.
"Seriously, what the fuck is up with the Sect? Why haven't they attacked yet!?" Kenzal paced back and forth in a hurried manner and said.
He was getting anxious with each passing second as nobody had attacked the Kenzal Clan yet despite the main conflict starting. Not just that, no place was getting attacked right now except for SKCT.
Also, there was only one squad in the Senzal Clan territory. All these factors made Kenzal wonder about what the sect was really up to? What were they even thinking of doing and why haven't they sent people to Kenzal territory?
"Why– ugh. I should stop worrying. It is not doing me any good." Kenzal tried to calm his nerves by speaking to himself.
Kenzal then called in Ethan and asked, "Is everyone in their positions?"
Ethan nodded his head. "Yes, Clan Head. Don't worry, we are well prepared for any attack that may happen."
Kenzal nodded but his worry wasn't gone yet. He didn't reply to Ethan and pondered about things for a bit.
He looked at Ethan and then said after a while, "We'll wait for two days and be in a defensive position. But if even within two days the sect doesn't attack, we'll commence an attack from our side, understood?"
Ethan thought about it and said, "what if they send their whole army here while we're out?"
Kenzal shook his head and said, "that won't be a problem. We'll only send a small squad to attack the sect."
Ethan didn't question Kenzal's words anymore and said, "If you say so…"
He wasn't really sure if this plan would work but since the Clan Head said it, he just agreed.
Ethan went away after conversing with Kenzal for a while and after he was gone, Kenzal continued to watch the attack in the Senzal Clan territory.
