Vampire's Slice Of Life

Chapter 419 Lith Finds The Assassin



Everyone had the same reaction as Xander. They were dumbfounded after hearing Dennis's words.

What did that guy even mean when he called Xander stupid? How did he know that was the case? But even if he did, he shouldn't disrespect their vice commander like this. This was unacceptable!

To not let matters escalate further, Dennis quickly replied in a calm manner, "bickering with each other would only end up causing the demise of the Senzal Clan. You're stupid to question me so much here and not go into the battlefield and help Senzal Clan."

"Our small squad was tasked to infiltrate the Shadow River Sect while their people are busy here in the Senzal Clan territory. The sect even got us the same uniforms as the other disciples of the sect. Also, look…"

Dennis pointed to his robes and then to Ralph's robes. "Look at both of our clothings, we don't have the same one as these other guys here. It is because the clan had thought things through. They knew that if all of us would leave the battlefield in the same robes, the sect as well as other people would find it suspicious. That's why, the two of us here are not in the sect robes."

"We are dressed in such a way so that we would be able to explain ourselves better to the others and not get confused for being enemies. Do you understand me now? Do you understand how stupid you were to question me and waste your time bickering here?"

"Oh my… if only you guys didn't waste so much time here and went to the battlefield and helped the people, many of our comrades wouldn't have died."

"Sniff… Sniff… please… Please hurry up and help them while we go ahead and do what was asked of us."

Ralph couldn't help but facepalm and sigh heavily. He genuinely had no idea that Dennis would become so dramatic and do things. Ralph only said a few things to Dennis and things would be fine even if he said it calmly to the other party. There was no need for such drama, but now…

"You're right, brother. I am sorry, I shouldn't have doubted you." Xander apologized.

"What!?" The elves behind Xander and even Zelph beside him couldn't believe what he was hearing. Xander just apologized to someone!? This ego filled guy did that? How!?

Little did the people know, after Qianyu's slap, Xander underwent a major change. He realized that being egoistic would only hurt him in the long run and thus he decided to change.

This change was now visible and made the other people shocked.

The slap from Qianyu and her venomous words that day had left Xander traumatized. He regretted everyday about foolishly speaking like that to an authority and thus decided to change and not let such an incident happen twice.

Xander found no fault in Dennis's words and although it was annoying to be called stupid, when Dennis explained that it was the situation here that was stupid and not himself, Xander began to trust Dennis's words and made the comment.

Dennis didn't know what caused the other party to change like this and even Ralph was surprised by this. He had formulated other plans in case the party in front didn't accept their explanation but he was really surprised when they bought the bullshit even though it sounded like obvious lies.

Dennis smiled happily and said, "Yes, brother. It's good that you know. Now go, help the clan on the battlefield and we'll be on our way."

Xander nodded. "Good luck, brother."

Dennis did a thumbs up and said, "good luck to you too, brother."

The two parties came to a mutual understanding and parted their ways.

Right after Lith's squad crossed paths with the Scalanis family's army, Zelph turned around and was about to send a spell that would wipe out all the people when…

BAM!

His body was slammed to the ground. The impact was so strong that a hole in the shape of his body was formed in the ground. Bones in his body shattered and Zelph lay limp on the ground.

Xander and the army, along with Ralph, Dennis, and the sect disciples all turned around to see what the loud noise was for. But as soon as they saw the scene in front of them, everyone gasped in surprise.

What happened to the commander? This was the thought in everyone's mind.

Soon, from above, a silver ray of light descended quickly and after just a few moments, an explosion was heard from where Zelph was, followed by a soft voice that said,

"Found you."

Everyone immediately looked at the figure that came down from the air and were shocked to see a young man with long silver hair wearing a formal white shirt and black pants standing in front of Zelph and holding him by his neck.

"Commander!" The elves cried out when they noticed this.

"Your Highness!?"

"Sir Ray!?"

Dennis and the other disciples exclaimed as well.

Everyone rushed towards the scene and before they could even near Lith, an invisible barrier blocked them from getting any closer.

The elves attacked the barrier but it was to no avail.

Lith was not in the mood to calm down the crowd. He was angry and frustrated by the sudden attempt on his life. He had kept his eyes open in search of the culprit and he finally found the guy.

Only a King Rank or someone in the Half Emperor Rank could have conducted the assassination attempt. Lith was sure of it. Despite searching the battlefield for such a person, Lith did not find anyone.

After searching the battlefield for a long time, Lith temporarily gave up on finding the assassin. He saw his squad in trouble and approached to help them out but who knew he would find a King Rank expert here?

Lith was looking at the conversation of Dennis and Xander and when he saw his squad successfully able to retreat, he thought that there was no King Rank in the army here and was about to leave.

However, Zelph decided to attack his squad midway through their retreat. The power and aura that Zelph exuded when preparing to attack had exposed his Rank.

Lith was well versed with the powers and auras of people with different cultivation levels. At his home, he had servants ranging from Saint Rank to Emperor Ranks. There was no shortage of King Ranks there.

Add onto that, even his sister was a King Rank. Lith knew the characteristics of a King Rank very well. Thus, it wasn't difficult for Lith to identify that Zelph was a King Rank.

Lith obviously couldn't go toe to toe with a King Rank as he was just a mortal with Rank 9 Magic Rank. Thus, he decided to call for help.

He called Luna over and had her suppress Zelph and cast a barrier around him.

Luna was high up in the air, in her usual black and white French maid outfit. Usually, she would wear a Victorian era outfit but today she decided to have a French one as that seemed more sexy.

Luna had no idea that she would be called so suddenly. But now that she was, she ended up dressing up in a good outfit and looking presentable to her master. Who knows if her master needed some extra services from her? A maid should always be ready to do whatever her master asks!

Everything aside, Lith was angry with his assassination and now that he found the culprit, he decided to take his revenge.

However, before that, Lith had to make sure of one more thing…
