Vampire's Slice Of Life

Chapter 299 Visiting the Shadow River Sect

Lith stated the Shadow River Sect members a price and it wasn't too much or too less. One assassination costed an average of 50 amethyst coins so Lith just asked the double of it.

The two sect masters were surprised to see such a low price but they nonetheless agreed and gave it to Lith right there and then.

Lith and the two talked for a while and when it was time to leave, Sect Master Ling said,

"Sir Ray, please, I insist you to come to our sect and let us show our hospitality to you."

The two sect masters felt that the reward Lith was getting was too low. They both were good people and they wouldn't try to scam Lith for his hard work like that. Thus they invited him.

Lith thought about it for a bit and agreed. They decided the time and Lith said that he'll come over there in three days.

The sect masters left after talking for a bit more and saying their goodbyes.

Andres and Rain walked in after they were gone.

Andres looked at Lith and asked, "sir, was there any problem? Do you need our assistance on any matter?"

Lith shook his head. "My job is done here, I am gonna leave."

Lith got up and was about to leave when Rain made him stop.

"One second, sir. Please have this and give me your Amethyst Card." Rain handed Lith a card and asked for his amethyst one in return.

Lith took the card in his hand and handed her his amethyst one. The card he was holding was a matte black colored with a silver font on it.

There were nine red roses at the bottom left of the card and there was an almost transparent picture of the Nine Roses Hotel printed on the card.

There was the card number, his name as 'Ray' and a three digit CVV printed at the back. Nothing else was present other than that. No validity or anything of such sort.

Noticing Lith looking at the card curiously, Rain explained to him, "sir, this card is given to only a select few. It'll get you the most premium access at all the places where there's an influence of Scelestus."

'Not just a select few, but only you.' Rain thought to herself as she looked at Lith with a smile.

She couldn't outright tell him why he was given this preferential treatment, it would bring trouble onto her. She just quietly handed it to him and told him that it was just one of the premium cards of the organization when in reality it was only just made and one of its kind.

Lith became the first and the only Black Card Holder in the world.

It was all due to Rain who thought it was the right thing to do.

Lith nodded his head and put the card in his ring.

Rain escorted Lith out of the hotel and after he left, she immediately called in a staff meeting.

In this meeting, she instructed everyone on how they should be treating a Black Card Holder and what all they should do in case they saw someone with a Black Card issued by Scelestus.

A circular was passed to every staff working for Scelestus and there was an uproar in the organization regarding this.

A lot of people associated with the organization and not just the staff, all started talking about what this Black Card was and how it worked as well and also wondered who had it.

Lith, with just a single visit, caused an uproar in the underworld without even knowing about it.

Lith walked to his hotel once again and since he had a bit of time before his visit to the Shadow River Sect, he decided to cultivate and raise his magic cultivation.

He had learned a lot in the past few days. Even though he spent a lot of his time spying on the Senzal Clan members, the times when he had assassinated them was something very valuable that he got.

Lith had to analyze the things he had done and by doing so, he would have his cultivation raised. He also needed to go back to the Senzal Clan to absorb the energies coming from the artifacts present underground of a pavilion there. This was the place where he had assassinated the spiky blonde haired guy.

He asked for a three day's time since he knew he could absorb everything within a day at the earliest and two days at maximum.

Reaching his hotel, Lith changed into comfy clothes and sat down on the ground to meditate.

He then began the long and boring meditation hours and analyzed a lot of things and comprehended them as well.

…..

Three days later.

.

Lith was standing in front of the gates of the Shadow River Sect and was waiting for the elders to come escort him inside.

The last three days went as planned by Lith. He cultivated hard in these three days and due to absorbing the energies from the Senzal Clan pavilion, his cultivation had been raised by a good margin.

He thought that it would raise his Magic Core rank by 20% but he was wrong about that. His core was so big that absorption of the energies only led to an increase of rank by 12%.

His assassination mission and experience helped him raise it by another 3% and thus just in three days, Lith had raised his cultivation by 15%.

Only 75% more and he would reach Rank 4.

His core color was still a deep violet shade however and there were no hints of the next rank's color taking over the violet one.

The core colors were really simple. At Rank 1 it was Black, at Rank 2 it changed to Gray, followed by the seven rainbow colors(VIBGYOR) upto Rank 9 and finally at Half Saint Rank, it was a bland and dull white color.

The past three days were thus very productive and now Lith was here to visit the sect to see what they had in store for him.

After just a few seconds of Lith's arrival, the Shadow River Sect's two Sect Masters and a few elders arrived at the gate to escort Lith inside.

The guards present were shocked watching the sect masters to personally descend down and escort Lith inside. But their surprise was gone just as fast as they thought of it as something normal.

It was normal in their opinion for bigshots to meet other bigshots and so thinking of this, they continued with their job and didn't dwell much on it.

Lith wasn't taken directly to the main building of the sect and was first given a tour of the sect.

The sect had a lot of buildings and they all seemed to be taken out from a xianxia novel. They looked like ancient Chinese buildings and Lith was amazed looking at it firsthand.

In his previous life, he had only just read about them and had seen it in the comics available. But looking at them in the comics and in real life was totally a different experience. It felt a lot cool and amazing to watch it in real life.

Lith passed through many places in the sect and from the tour he got to know that the sect was divided into three levels. This wasn't anything amusing or something he wasn't familiar with.

Sects were generally divided into sections so that the disciples worked hard to cultivate and cross these levels.

The disciples present at the outer parts of the sect were called outer court disciples and they lived in the outer court.

Once they meet a certain criteria and pass the yearly exams of the sect, they were made inner court disciples and would have their residence be present in the inner court.

The last place was the core of the sect. It was where a lot of important resources were present and to access them, one had to be a core disciple.

It was a lot more difficult to pass the exams to become a core disciple but once they did become that, they would get a lot of benefits.

There were training grounds present at all three levels but there was only one big arena present for battles. It was in the inner court area and disciples from all three levels could enter it if given a pass from the sect.

There were a lot of other smaller arenas in all three levels but most of the big battles took place only in this inner arena.

The sect masters and elders present with Lith brought him to this inner arena.

They brought him to the vip seats of the arena and having Lith seated, Sect Master Ling sitting beside Lith said to him,

"Sir Ray, today is the finals of the yearly competition that takes place in the sect. I hope our disciples please you and provide you with good entertainment."

Lith looked at Ling and said with a smile, "Sect Master Ling is too polite. But I am sure that everything will go according to the sect master's words."

Ling chuckled hearing that. Lith changed his way of speaking from the usual vampire style accent to the cultivator style accent and she knew that it was definitely due to her influencing him. It thus felt a bit funny to her, causing her to let out a small chuckle.

Lith didn't talk to them anymore and looked in front to see the participants and the battle that was about to commence.

The host walked in the middle of the arena and said with a cheerful voice:

"Let us have the final match of this year's competition!"

"Are you guys ready?"

"Yeahhhhh!"

"I SAID ARE YOU GUYS READDDDY!!!?"

"YEAAAHHHHH!"

"THEN GIVE IT UP FOR…"
