Vampire's Slice Of Life Chapter 1028 Cruel World

Chapter 1028 Cruel World

"Noooooo!"

A young Giant screamed on top of his lungs as he rushed into a pile of ruins.

"No! No! No!"

The young Giant pushed apart the shattered rocks and and debris, searching for something.

"Noooooooo!"

Tears streamed down his eyes while his heart seemed to be clutched tightly by vines of thorns.

Rummaging through the debris with tearful eyes, the young Giant soon found a hand.

"Lula! Lula! Lula!"

As if cast with a booster spell, the young Giant's strength increase many folds as he saw the scarred hand, b.l.o.o.d.y hand.

All the debris around it was cleared in just a few seconds and the sight he saw made his heart stop.

A woman lay with her eyes open, and mouth agape, staring at the sky. Her eyes were lifeless, face scarred as much as her hands, and she did not seem to be breathing.

The young Giant could not process what he was looking at.

Only after a solid few minutes, did the reality sink in.

"Lu..la…"

The young Giant felt a big lump form in his throat and was unable to speak. Even if no words came out, his body, which was now trembling, and eyes which were flooded by salty tears expressed his grief.

"Lula… Lula. Lula! Lula! LulaLulaLulaLula!"

The young Giant slammed the ground beside the dead lady and went into a state of madness.

"Why? Why? Why?"

"Why did this happen? What wrong did we ever do!?"

"Why you and not me?!"

"Whyyyyyy… Whyyyyyy…"

The young Giant descended into madness as he smashed all the debris around him. Even in his crazed state, his arms never hit the lifeless body of the girl called Lula.

The young Giant stood up after a while and distanced himself from Lula, trying not to hurt her.

"WhyWhyWhyWhyWhyWhyWhyWhy!?!?!"

The young Giant kicked, smashed, and threw whatever he could around him.

"Aaaaaahhhhh! Why??? What wrong did Lula ever do? What wrong did I ever do to deserve this?"

The young Giant continued to scream as memories of past flashed in front of his eyes.

-Hey Yudor, I-I-I…

-You…?

-I..I want to say something, Yudor.

-Hm, it sounds serious. Haven't seen you this serious in a while.

-S, shut up… let me speak…

-Heh… are you going to propose to me, Lula, with that blushing face of yours?

-…

-haha… it's a jok..e… huh? Why are you crying?

-…

-…wait, what…

-Y-you idiot! You b.a.s.t.a.r.d! You ruined it!

-Ah… I'm so sorry…

-Hmph! Don't talk to me anymore!

+

Yudor was bawling as he remembered the day where he started dating his dead wife Lula.

Their confession story wasn't the best, but those were one of the happiest days of his life.

+

-Yudor, you b.a.s.t.a.r.d! You ruined the confession, but don't ruin the vows!

-Why would I do that? Have some faith in your husband!

-You're not my husband yet.

-Have some faith in your handsome fiancé.

-You're not handsome.

-…

-Shoo! Get out of my room and go prepare the vows properly. I'm busy.

+

Yudor was the happiest after Lula came into his life. Even if she used to scold him sometimes, the love she would pour out throughout the day was unconditional and unparalleled.

+

-Yudor… we'll have four kids!

-What? Four? Isn't that a lot, Lula?

-Mister husband, I am the one popping them out. You don't have a say in the quant.i.ty. Now get here and fertilize my eggs.

-…Lu-L-Lula… what sort of wording is tha— oomph!

+

Days pa.s.sed and Lula got pregnant.

Yudor got a job in a guild on the outskirts of Semohr. The pay was well and they were making a decent living out of it.

Being a Giant, pregnancy and delivery took a long time. But Lula and Yudor were patient. Someday, the baby will surely come out.

Day by day, Lula's belly was swelling up. The two were at the peak of their happiness.

The swelling wasn't much as it was in the initial period, but they were very happy with antic.i.p.ation of their young one.

When they were at their happiest, as if the world couldn't bear to watch it anymore, tragedy struck.

Problems occurred in the guild Yudor worked at. After years of hard work, he had climbed higher and was at the position of a Vice-Guildmaster.

Someone in the guild offended a bigger guild's hero. It was a big problem.

Yudor's guild worked hard to compensate and apologize, but the one who was being a troublemaker didn't like things the way they were and tried to a.s.sa.s.sinate the hero of the other guild.

Enraged, the bigger guild started a guild war.

Needless to say, Yudor's guild was wiped out.

Things should've stopped here, but the bigger guild wasn't satisfied with just this. They targeted every individual present in that place and being the Vice-Guildmaster, Yudor's house was razed, and his wife was killed along with his unborn child.

Yudor tried to rush as fast as he could, but was late.

At last, after watching his wife's corpse, he completely descended into madness and thrashed around like a rogue beast.

"Aaaaaahhhhhh! Why her? Why her? Why her? Why not me!? Me!

Me!Me!Me!"

Yudor roared at the heavens while being in the vicinity of his dead wife.

"Aaaaahhhh! G.o.d's above! G.o.d's above, return my wife and my child to me!"

"G.o.d's above! Return her soul!"

Lula's soul had vanished, only the sh.e.l.l housing it remained. There was no resurrecting her. The people of the guild had thoroughly ensured to kill.

"G.o.d's above! G.o.d's above! Give me my wife!"

"G.o.d's above! I give up my life in exchange!"

"G.o.d's above! Take me, take me, take me!"

"G.o.d's above! G.o.d's above! G.o.d's above!"

"G.o.d's above, listen to me…"

"Mother Helvia… please listen…"

Yudor's rage subdued. What remained was utter grief.

"G.o.d's above… sob… G.o.d's above…"

"…please… just once… G.o.d's… above…"

Yudor's voice turned faint as time pa.s.sed.

His hazy eyes dimmed and turned lifeless as he slowly lay beside his dead wife.

"Go..d… a..bo..v… e…"

He didn't stop mumbling even after his mind collapsed.

Soon, after who knows how long, light shone in front of Yudor's eyes.

His weakened state of mind recovered to full health and as the light dispersed, in his vision were a pair of deep crimson eyes, staring right at his very soul.

"That's a good resentment."

The unknown being said softly.

"Yudor, was it?"

The G.o.d spoke.

"From today, you shall be my apostle of the [— — —] world."

"Hm? Apostle of…?"

Yudor did not know what was happening, and unconsciously asked what the beeped out words meant.

The crimson-eyed G.o.d tilted her head in confusion.

"You don't know what [— — —] is?"

"No. I am only hearing 'beep beep beep' when you say that name."

The crimson-eyed G.o.d fell silent.

"It seems language now is too advanced for you. Let me speak in ancient Giant language."

"I want you to be the apostle of the [Origin] world."

ƈοm "Origin?"

"Yes," said G.o.d softly. "Your world is infamous. There's not a single soul that does not know about it. However, half a million years ago, it vanished from everyone's eyes. But now, to luck would have it, you believers worshiping us has led to us taking notice of the [Origin]."

"What happened in your world to disappear and reappear like that?"

"I don't know." Yudor said flatly.

The G.o.d nodded and didn't dwell on it. Yudor seemed nothing but a small fry.

"From today, you shall be my, Mother Seia's, apostle. If you worship me, believe in me, listen to me, I will fulfill all your wishes."

"All my wishes? Can you bring my wife back?"

"Yes. And I can get your unborn child's soul back as well."

"Please tell me what I need to do!"

…..

The immersion broke and Lith rubbed his forehead as he stared at the Giant called Yudor coc.o.o.ned on the ground.

'Why did it have to be a sad story?' Lith couldn't help but wonder.

'Why can't villains just be villains due to poor malice?'

'If these f.u.c.kers have backstories like this, killing them only just messes with my own morality. f.u.c.k.'

Lith was not happy with this outcome. He felt pity and sympathy for the guy. What he had done was nothing wrong.

There were some things not in one's control.

This was a world of magic where the strongest fist ruled. Cannon fodders getting swept was inevitable in a place like this.

The war Lith had caused was one big example of it. Many had died due to him. There could be some like Yudor in the mix, and had he not been prepared beforehand, the cruel karma he would need to bear might take his own loved ones' life.

'It's risky. Very risky.'

One shouldn't kill unnecessarily unless one was strong enough to handle the karma. It is exactly due to this that not even the unaffiliated Supreme Ranks never caused any trouble.

Lith once again learnt about the harshness of this world in which he had found comfort due to the ones around him.

Sighing, Lith squatted down and touched the coc.o.o.n again.

'There's still a major chunk of memories remaining to be seen. Let's see what more is left. This time, I hope there isn't something as traumatic. Please… I can't bear to watch these tragedies…'
