Vampire's Slice Of Life Chapter 1008 Privilege Of Being In The Same Batch

Chapter 1008 Privilege Of Being In The Same Batch

The oppressive atmosphere lightened as time pa.s.sed and everyone accepted Lith's ident.i.ty.

However, that did not mean they weren't afraid of offending him. With their b.u.t.ts clenched and looks stiff, they tried their best to talk as politely as possible to Lith.

Talks with him were relatively easier as Lith did not seem to be haughty or overbearing. Though, sporadically they were distracted by the lady in his embrace who clung onto him like a vine.

Lith could feel their awkward glances at Mayzin. It was indeed weird to have a grown up in his embrace like that during a serious discussion, but what other choice did he have?

His aunt was so deep into her sleep that even if someone were to play drums and trumpets near her, she wouldn't budge.

Arya was a dragon too, but she probably wasn't as fond of sleeping like his aunt.

At present, this Star Dragon was totally defenseless. The small breaths she took during her sleep reeked of alcohol. Had she been aware of her state, she definitely wouldn't repeat something like this again.

But well, Lith wasn't going to tell her that and just continue on with his day. If his aunt could be vulnerable around him, this meant he was someone she trusted. It was a good development.

"Right, so… Sheng's not going to attend this meeting for all the obvious reasons."

Sheng was the guy who kowtowed a while ago. He was a Werewolf and had a death scare upon encountering Lith, hence his exaggerated reaction.

His race was the reason Lith felt a repulsive scent from him. This made Lith understand that Demons and Angels probably felt something similar with each other.

"Let me do a brief introduction again." Ji, the demon youth, acted as a host and introduced everyone to each other.

On the table, there was Gunther, the blonde-haired Giant whom Lith remembered from the Blue Haze World challenge.

He was one of the last few who had to be sent away from there.

Likewise, Gunther remembered Lith too. Actually, there was no one in the entire academy who didn't remember Lith.

The batch Lith was in, the almost ten thousand kids present in that along with the staff, they had quite the impression of him.

In the history of Abalax World Academy, there hadn't been a child as overqualified as Lith. Add to that, he was the first person to have ever dropped out of it, shocking the entire world.

Lith's stay in the academy was short, but the ones in his batch had forever ingrained his image in their hearts. Plus, they got quite the privilege everywhere they went.

"Oh? You were in the same batch as the Vampire Prince? Come, come, come, have a seat. Hahaha!"

"What?! Same cla.s.s as t, the Vampire Prince!?! Iyaaa~! Why didn't you say it before!??"

Students of Cla.s.s A-1 from Lith's batch were in high demand everywhere in the world till this day.

Some simply sought them to have Lith's picture be recreated for *censored* uses while some wanted to monopolize information on him.

Had the Giant race not been a muscle headed group who only liked people with muscles the size of basketb.a.l.l.s, they would've shown a similar reaction to Lith's appearance and freaked out.

Gunther and his uncle Kruger, the middle-aged Giant who was sparring with him, had a calm expression on their faces as they sat around Lith.

The stone table was big and the chairs were similarly in proportion to it. Thankfully, the stone table and chairs were made by keeping a young adult Giant's stature in mind, and thus were only twice the size of Lith.

"…And lastly there's Ojas whom you already know, and then me, Ji. I belong to the Envy Tribe."

Lith did a slight nod. "Ojas is a dragon, right?"

"Yes. I belong to the s.p.a.ce Tribe, directly under Her Majesty's rule."

Ojas's nose was pointing at the sky as he c.o.c.ked a proud look.

The corner of Lith's lips threatened to curve up, but he held himself back from smiling. If only this guy knew who was in his embrace…

Lith lowered his gaze and stared at the sleepyhead in his embrace. There was some drool leaking from her lips and staining his shirt.

'How I wish I could just take my phone out and capture these moments…'

It was truly a pity. He couldn't pull off that stunt as he was warned beforehand by his mother and aunt Agalea that Mayzin would kill him if he did anything stupid.

Even Lucifer wasn't spared in the past, so he should give up any thoughts of causing trouble.

Though, even if he took his phone out and took pictures, it wouldn't be Mayzin who would appear in them, but her disguised figure. Hence, it was pointless to do so too.

'I think she's probably aware that whatever she does, she won't be affected as she's in a disguise and has thus been loose.'

That was the only reasonable conclusion Lith could come up with.

'Anyway…'

Turning to look at Gunther, who had been silent for all this while and staring at him with curious gaze, Lith asked, "I heard you are stuck in the political friction. Is that true?"

Gunther's brows jumped as he heard that. Sitting straight in attention, he said with an awkward smile, "It seems the Prince is well-versed with the Giant politics."

His tone was formal and nothing like what Lith had seen in the academy. That was a given as back then, they were just thirteen years old.

"I do know a little bit." Lith said. He didn't know anything about them until he asked Ojas. So if someone were to be blamed, it should be Ojas.

"May I ask what brings you here?"

Gunther was cautious and tried not to sound rude while asking, 'why are you here?'.

"Do you want an honest answer?"

Lith half closed his eyes and asked in a leisurely tone as he leaned back on his chair and hugged Mayzin firmly.

Gunther and his uncle Kruger were startled and almost jumped on their seats. They didn't think Lith would straightaway say something like: 'I am here with a hidden agenda, do you want to know it?'.

They were already aware that the revered Vampire Prince wouldn't simply visit their race because he suddenly took a fancy to them.

With him appearing here, it definitely meant that their race had something which he needed.

Now the question was, can they afford to give it to him?

They didn't know what it was that he wanted or what ulterior motives he had, but they knew that refusing wasn't an option and they could only hear him out.

Forcing a smile on his stiff face, Gunther, with a voice similar to having a sore throat, said, "I wonder what it is, haha…"

"No need to be so wary." Lith shook his hand and gestured. "My purpose for the visit is to fulfill a promise. I was asked to lend a helping hand to the ex chief's family and you happen to be that same person. It's a pure coincidence that you're meeting me right now."

Lith clearly told Gunther that he didn't know until now that he was the ex-chief's grandson.

He lied about it being a promise, but so what? Gunther had no means to check the credibility of his statements.

If he were to delve deeper into this matter, he may find some holes, but there was nothing that the Royal Servants couldn't accomplish. Lith just had to make one call to patch things up. Just one.

As he had guessed, Gunther and his uncle Kruger indeed were sitting with a frown on their faces and guessing whether such a thing was true or not. However, they had no means to cross-

check this. And also, doing so may not be the best as it may end up offending the Vampire Prince.

With such a tense situation already present, they didn't want extra pressure from the outside.

Kruger, the middle-aged Giant heaved out a sigh and elbowed Gunther.

Gunther leaned to the side and Kruger said in a low whisper, "Just go along. We don't have much of a choice."

Kruger was a King Rank and his voice was transmitted in secrecy.

Gunther nodded in understanding and turned to Lith, letting out an amicable smile.

"Who would've thought that fate would have us meet like this someday. I never expected the Prince to even notice us during our academy days, yet you still remember us."

Yeah, of course he did. Even if he wanted to, he couldn't forget as his memory was just that sharp.

Lith didn't blurt this out and smiled faintly in response. "So… will you let me help you?"

"Haha… how can we dare to refuse such a request? We would be fools to not accept it." Gunther scratched his face and said with some awkwardness.

He still couldn't digest the fact that such a bigshot had appeared on their doorsteps just to help them.

Lith nodded. "Alright, tell me the situation and I'll see how I can help."

With that, the round table discussion was back on current affairs, with Gunther spewing details that even Ojas wasn't aware of.
