Vampire's Slice Of Life

Days passed.

It was the 21st day.

Lith, Dennis, Miwa, Hyunsuk, and Shi adventured to various places in this time and got to learn a lot of things about this world.

It was the same old church vs devils trope going on here.

The devils were rampant and harmed the humans, but the church actually caused more damage overall than them.

In the name of devil cleansing, in small rural areas, young children and beautiful women were actually r*ped.

Politics was vile and many would be executed in the name of devils.

Only in some urban areas where the population was really big did the church not cause damage.

However, even there, from the huge donations they got from people, the church had a major control over everyone.

It was democratic world but that was only on paper. The church controlled everything.

Unlike the church, the devils were actually doing good work.

The only thing they wanted was ambitions and happiness from the humans. The more the humans had it, the more the devils could get stronger.

For this reason, the devils did not harm the humans—at least directly.

They first watched the humans and selected the one with the most potential. Then, they would help him/her achieve great things in life and slowly but surely, feed on their growth, happiness, success, and ambitions.

It was only after the person had reached the peak of success would they actually consume them completely.

If one were to look at it from the church's perspective, they would see that the devils were simply fiddling with the human's emotions, then once it had actually balanced its life, the devils consumed it.

If one were to look at it from the devil's perspective, they would see that they themselves had to work hard to make this human grow, just like feeding a pig before slaughtering it. They had to work a bit and when the pig was all fattened up, they could butcher it.

However, if one were to look at it from a neutral perspective, they would see that the devils were actually doing great work.

Bringing a human to its peak of success, this was a challenging task in itself. Many factors came into play and a lot had to be taken into consideration.

A human did not reach his own peak in a jiffy. There were more humans involved for one person's success.

Add to that, when one reached their peak, they would've already served more than half of their life's purpose.

In a lifetime, a human may or may not really fulfil the purpose of their life. It was always a gamble and for this reason, not everybody was a bigshot or a king or someone mighty.

The devils brought a human close to its life purpose and once it was achieved, they consumed it.

From a neutral perspective, they seem to be doing a good thing.

Add to that, the church's inability to control their own branches and harm the fellow humans made them incur bad karma.

Their bad karma had skyrocketed after they captured Ralph for no apparent reason.

The church's fate was tied with Lith's and there was no way he was going to leave them so easily.

However much torture Ralph has suffered, it would be returned to the church a hundred folds.

The headquarters of the Church of Saint Selena was located in Holy City Thames.

Where Ralph was located was still unknown.

Even from Dennis's dream, it was indecipherable.

There was a strange feeling Lith had about this situation. Even if he unearthed all the churches, he may still not find Ralph.

This feeling was really amusing and he did not know why he felt this.

Lith asked the others if they felt something similar, but they simply shook their heads.

Things were indeed strange, but up until this point, what wasn't strange in Lith's life?

During ascensions, he was repeatedly pulled into the Astral Realm. Then, he became the sixth Chosen One. Then, he found a strong Devil and her daughter; a Supreme Rank Witch, an extinct bloodline's descendant; child of Cerberus Ren; summoner puppy Zen; became a phoenix providence bearer…

The list was endless and Lith couldn't put them in proper order even if he wanted to. There was just too much happening.

Keeping aside these thoughts, Lith believed in his instincts and didn't go to topple the churches yet.

The primary goal was to find Ralph. Everything else could wait.

Lith and the rest had been wandering about trying to find him, but what they met with was one misfortune after another.

Shi's abilities have been really active lately.

Lith was just thankful that he was a relatively low level Jinx. If he were any stronger, even Lith wouldn't be able to protect himself.

After days of surviving through misfortunes, with the Charm Hyunsuk by their sides, on the 21st day, that is, at present, Lith and the rest were able to find the second mythical ingredient.

It was called the Golden Dawn Blossoms. As its name suggested, they were petals that bloomed only during the golden hour.

They were extremely rare as it was present only on one path of land, that too at an unknown cliff in a territory void of any sentient being's presence.

Lith didn't know how these flowers were able to survive through the ancient times by just being in such a small location.

They sure contained some profound mysteries, but diving deep into them would just be wasting time.

Lith's goal was to make the stew and leave as fast as possible.

With Hyunsuk and Shi by his side, things became a bit easier.

Even with them in tow, finding Ralph was challenging. Thus, after a bit of thinking, Lith finally came to a decision.

Shi's misfortune had to be kept away temporarily if they wanted to find Ralph.

However, his misfortune was so much that if Lith wasn't around, everyone would have trouble surviving.

Thus, Lith parted ways with Miwa, Dennis, and Hyunsuk. He had to take Shi to some far away place temporarily until Ralph was found.

Lith searched for Ralph himself, but having Shi with him, he had a feeling that he wouldn't be the one to find him.

Since Ralph couldn't be found easily, ingredients couldn't be found easily, and Lith just had to suffer through misfortunes, he had a thought.

'Why should I suffer alone?'

With such a thought, he took Shi and ventured to the areas where the church was really active, bringing misfortune everywhere.

Towns suffered through harsh climate changes. Lightning actually struck buildings, cattle everywhere turned mad, rats ate up grains, silos collapsed, and eventually… disaster struck everywhere Lith went with Shi.
