Vampire's Slice Of Life

CLANG!

Dennis blocked the large hammer with his lance, neutralising the attack of the giant teen for the seventeenth time he felt his hands becoming increasingly numb.

He distanced himself and gazed at him. His eyes had a serious look this time instead of the playful one he always had. The reason being, the opponent this time was a lot more powerful than he initially thought him to be. Gazing at the giant teen’s eyes, Dennis asked seriously

“What’s your name and class rank, mate?”

“Gunther. Class rank 11.” The giant teen, Gunther said, matching his gaze.

“Alright Gunther, let’s spar seriously now.” Dennis said with a smile but kept his serious look.

Gunther nodded his head and clutched the hammer tightly.

Dennis took a deep breath and rotated his lance while chanting a spell, pointing it to the sky, he said, “Sun’s Fury!”

Rays of light converged at the tip of the lance, making the silver lance glow with a white brilliance. After the rays stopped drawing towards the lance, Dennis leaned back a bit, pulled his arm behind his head and threw the lance at Gunther with point perfect precision.

Everyone stopped fighting and looked at the shining silver lance flying towards Gunther at high speed. They could literally feel the enormous power that lance held, everyone present felt a variety of emotions with the most prominent ones being fear and respect for the attack sent by Dennis. They all started thinking of how they could have avoided the lance, had they been the one being attacked, blocking the attack didn’t even cross their minds.

Gunther took a deep breath and seriously looked at the lance approaching him at a high speed. There was no way he could dodge with his bad movement capabilities. He also didn’t have the help of the space element, thus left with no choice, he had to try his best to block it.

Gunther immediately took out a shield from his ring and held it in one hand while the other held the hammer. The shield was half the size of Gunther, he brought it in front of his face and tarso to protect his vitals while also raising the hammer and prepared himself from the incoming attack.

The shining silver lance reached Gunther and just as its tip touched the shield ,with a heavy force, Gunther struck the hammer down at the lance.

BOOM!

Light covered Gunther after a loud explosion as he hit the lance with his hammer. The light soon died down and everyone gasped at the scene they saw.

Gunther was standing still on a deep crater formed due to the explosion. His uniform tattered, hair disheveled, blood leaking out of his body from various places while he held a broken shield and hammer and looked at Dennis with a determined gaze.

But what shocked everyone wasn’t Gunther’s condition, it was the lance! The lance equipped with the light elemental spell Sun’s Fury by Dennis, was pinned to the ground in front of Gunther and wasn’t damaged even in the slightest. Beside the lance was the flag of Gunther’s team.

Dennis smiled looking at Gunther. He walked towards Gunther and jumped down into the crater. Looking at Gunther in the eyes, he said smiling

“You’re not weak. Let’s spar together occasionally, it will be fun, hehehe.”

“Sure.” Gunther said in a hoarse voice with a smile on his blood covered face.

The other people who were shocked, now seemed jealous. This was clearly visible that Dennis wanted to be friends with the giant. They too wanted to be friends with someone like Dennis who was the heir of an Emperor rank clan of one of the eight main races.

They were cursing themselves for not going after Dennis like Gunther. If they only needed to take one hit from Dennis, they would’ve all taken it happily. But alas, there was nothing they could do now.

Dennis took out his phone and gave Gunther his contact no. which the latter happily took. Just as Dennis was about to take the team flag that Gunther dropped and leave, he saw that the flag was nowhere to be seen.

“Huh? Where did the fla—” Dennis stopped mid sentence and quickly extended his wings out and flew high above while taking Gunther along by holding his collar.

The sound of air being pierced was heard by everyone and in the next instant, they heard another explosion coming from the same place where Dennis and Gunther were.

Smoke rose from the crater Dennis and Gunther were in and as it settled down, all that was visible was Dennis’s lance, still pinned to the ground without any damage.

“Hey, what happened just now?” A person from the crowd of 17 people asked.

“How would I know? Whatever you saw, I saw the same.” A person replied.

“Huh? Usele-“

“FLAGS! OUR FLAGS ARE GONE!” A person yelled.

“WHAT!?” Everyone said in panic. They checked whether their flags were still there or not and like the person had yelled, they indeed weren’t here.

“How did it happen!? Where did the flags go!?” The team leader of the three-membered team said.

“Oh nooooo! We will fail the assignment! Quick, we have three and a half hours, search for the flags quick!” The team leader of the five-membered team said.

Everyone scattered and searched for their flags. Meanwhile…

“Hehehe, the explosion sure worked well as a distraction. Damn, it was so easy to take their flags. I should probably thank Dennis for this.” A draconic teen said while running away from the tall tree, holding a bunch of flags in his hand.

This teen was the one who used an artifact to evade the senses of everyone including Dennis and stole their flags. There wasn’t any rule that said one couldn’t use artifacts so technically he did nothing wrong.

Just as the teen was happily running away, he suddenly felt so dizzy that he blacked out the very next minute and collapsed on the ground.
