Vampire's Slice Of Life

The being that made Lith feel pressured, even in dreams, said in an overbearing tone:

"It is natural." 

The lady then continued, "Master, I hope they find the ways to go against nature and I hope we succeed in doing so as well."

"Yes. The way of nature doing things isn't right. We need to hurry up and change it. The will of the—"

Before Lith could finish hearing what the man said, the scene in front changed abruptly and he was now in a forest.

Lith saw a few things in the forest and he was the scene changed again and he was in a desert. After desert it was in the snow and after snow it was on mountains.

After looking at the final scene in the mountains, Lith was sucked into a vortex and was back into the Astral World.

Opening his eyes, he once again saw a thousand monsters standing in front of him.

Despite having being taken into a dream by surprise and despite watching many weird things, Lith was calm and he didn't panic or feel afraid of things.

Lith was sure of one thing. It was that something or someone made him watch this dream because they wanted something from him. Though having no idea why would the target him, there was another fact that he couldn't ignore. 

Firstly, someone was trying to tell him in a very obvious manner than that there are some bad guys going against the way of nature. This isn't acceptable and Lith must probably stop them. Another thing was, in the forest, desert, snow, and the mountains, Lith saw the just ways of nature. 

In the forest, there was a human who saved an animal from the traps made by other humans. His this benevolence saved him in future as that animal came to the man's rescue when he was in trouble.

In the desert, one person had his last few drops of water stolen by his companion and his companion also stabbed him and ran away with all the food they had on them. The person was sad but he endured the sufferings and continued to walk, eventually finding an oasis all to himself.

Similar things happened in other places and it was pretty obvious that someone was telling him that nature is fair and just.

If it was Lith who had just been born, things would've been much different and his thinking process would also be different.

Lith would feel that those people trying to go against the laws of nature were the bad guys, the church was in the good, the other party with the short haired man was along with the overbearing man was bad. Then after watching the scenes in the forest, desert, and other places, Lith would feel that nature is kind and fair and one should always protect its natural ways.

But, Lith was more mature now and things were much different.

'Whoever showed me these things made it appear too obvious what their motives were. It is clearly noticeable that someone is trying to ask me to protect nature and help things flow naturally.'

Lith's current thoughts were anything but good and the ones like his past self.

'I don't care even in the slightest about what happens to nature or this world or its people. As long as me, my wives, and the people I care about are fine and happy, nothing else matters. The world can burn and nature can go fuck itself. What matters is my own happiness and the happiness of my beloved ones.' 

Just as Lith finished these thoughts, something clicked him.

'Hmm? That might probably be the way out.' 

Lith suddenly had an idea. He got up on the podium and looked at the monsters surrounding him.

He then said in a soft voice, "I won't hurt you if you don't hurt me. I have not offended you and even I don't understand how I got here. As I walk away from this podium, if someone attacks me, I'll attack back. But if no one does it, I'll simply walk away and not bother you."

Finishing saying so and not waiting for the monsters to reply or show some reaction, Lith got down the podium.

He was on guard and ready to strike, but what if he was thinking was correct, he wouldn't have the need to attack anyone. Still, he was prepared for the consequences in case what he was thinking was wrong.

As soon as Lith got down, the monsters separated in front of him and made him a path to walk.

Lith calmly walked out and after being away from them, he thought to himself, 'Things are too obvious.' 

Lith was shown benevolence in the dream and the correct answer to get out of this predicament was to be benevolent. But, things were just too obvious and this out Lith on guard. 

But despite being on guard, nothing much happened to him and he once again reached the palm tree with star shaped fruits on it.

'Why am I back here?' Lith questioned himself.

Something struck him at this point and he sat in a meditative position and said softly, "Nature is just. We must protect it and let things flow naturally." 

As soon as he finished saying that, a star fruit fell on his hands and he couldn't help but open his eyes and look at it. He then turned to look at the palm tree beside him and saw it to have gone.

'Something is really fishy. But now that I found the path, I might as well go down it and exit this place.'

Lith got up and left this place in search of finding a way out.

Meanwhile…

Crack!

Lucy kicked a monster's body and broke its spine, eventually killing it.

"Why are there so many monsters here?" She said while looking at the thousand monster corpses lying down on the ground.

Arya looked around and commented, "I can feel Lith's aura here."

Lilith, looking at the black corpses in this seemingly gray world, added, "He was for quite some time. We should've visited this place earlier." 

Hearing that, Lucy couldn't help but ask, "Mom, can't you like, spread your massive spiritual sense and find him?" 

Lilith looked at her and said with a smile, "Even if I did that, there's no point. Spreading my senses here would be like pouring a drop of dye in the ocean. It won't affect anything." 

Lucy thought about it and then asked, "Is the Astral World bigger than our world?" 

Lilith, with the same smile as before, "The Astral World, although called a world, isn't one. It's a realm."

She paused and then continued while looking at the far distant places,

"A realm stretching so far, even god's eyes won't be able to reach there."
