Vampire's Slice Of Life

Chapter 805 Kayaking

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The axe swung and beat the hardwood, chopping a good part of it away.

Lith's muscles bulged as he tightly held the axe and applied force. It was raw strength and there was no magic involved, thus requiring a lot more power than necessary.

The place he and Mayzin were in was rich with elemental energies. Nourished by it for years, the vegetation was far stronger than normal and couldn't be damaged by mortals so easily.

It took time and effort to chop down trees to make a kayak and a paddle.

Lith was almost done chopping down the wood and all that was left was to shape it.

Meanwhile on Mayzin's side, beads of sweat formed on her forehead as she used all her strength into chopping trees.

There was no magic available to be used and the strength too was suppressed to a great degree, all thanks to this armband.

Mayzin was having a difficult time due to this as she had not trained her body for raw combat like Lith.

Her body had great strength, no doubt, but by being suppressed like this and suddenly getting magic taken away, things were slightly difficult.

Lith had somewhat of an advantage over Mayzin due to this and was leading.

Mayzin knew her performance was pathetic and she had to up her game. If she didn't do so, she might end up losing to Lith, which should never happen.

SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!

Mayzin went all out and used her whole strength for a brief moment to chop down the trees. It made her muscles sore, but it was worth it as trees fell down really quickly.

"Into a kayak. Into a kayak." Mayzin repeated herself as she carved out the logs into a kayak.

Her hands moved gracefully in a skilled manner and carved out the log intricately, turning it into a proper kayak.

It took her ten minutes to carve out the kayak and it slightly was off the mark as Mayzin had never seen a kayak before and made one from whatever rough idea she had.

She had to race Lith down the water stream and knowing that was enough to give Mayzin an idea as to what shape a boat should be made of.

In a few more minutes, the kayak was made and so was the long paddle.

Mayzin grabbed it and ran to the waterfall where the stream was, only to find out that Lith was already in position, waiting for her.

Looking at his aunt, Lith waved and smiling, said, "Sup my love, took you quite the time, eh?"

A vein popped on Mayzin's head as she heard these sarcastic remarks. But she sighed and then went into the water with her kayak, positioning herself right beside Lith.

Turning to look at his aunt who had just arrived, Lith smirked. "There are penalties—"

"I know!" Mayzin interrupted and said with slightly knitted brows. "All penalties can be served after the day is over."

Lith chuckled. "I hope you don't forget about them by then."

"Dragons never go back on their words," Mayzin said in a serious tone.

"Kewl, kewl. Let's start the race then." Lith said with enthusiasm.

Mayzin nodded and positioned herself properly, ready to start at Lith's signal.

"Alright… 3… 2… 1, go!"

SPLASH! SPLASH! SPLASH!

Lith and Mayzin both paddled aggressively, splashing the water everywhere.

Lith took the lead and yelled out, "HAHA SUCKER!"

The adrenaline was coursing their bodies and in the heat of the moment, the trash talking side of Lith erupted out.

"Just wait!" Mayzin was a bit tame still due to her Supreme Rank self, but she was opening up too due to the suppression of the armband.

The water stream narrowed down as the two went further down the mountain, with it being wide enough for only one and a half kayaks to be present in one place.

Lith was still in the lead and if Mayzin wanted to overtake him, she had to push him on the soil at the side.

"WOOOOOOOOO!" Lith yelled out as the speed increased with the cliff getting steeper.

"AH THIS DAMN STREAM!" Mayzin couldn't hold herself back anymore and shouted in frustration.

She couldn't pass Lith properly as he wasn't sliding down in a straight path, but was swaying side to side to block Mayzin's path.

"Fuck it!" Thought Mayzin immediately in her frustration and decided to not bother with anything anymore and just win.

She was holding back from forcing her way forwards as that might end up toppling Lith and hurting him, but then she realized that he shouldn't get hurt so easily.

He was a damn immortal for fuck's sake!

Clasping the paddle, swinging with one powerful arc, Mayzin shouted, "MOVE!"

The shout was loud enough to ring alarm bells in Lith's mind and his fight and flight instincts awakened with the latter getting chosen in reflex.

Lith half went to the side and in one fast sweep, Mayzin zoomed past him.

For an instant, while she was passing him, time seemed to have slowed down as Lith could see her beautiful face that contained a serious look.

She seemed so mesmerizing that Lith's jaw dropped.

If this wasn't fatal, Mayzin's silky purple hair flowed in the air, making her nape be visible clearly.

The vampire instincts were aroused immediately and wanted to take a bite out of it, but alas, all good things come to an end.

As Mayzin zoomed past in the next instant, the slowed down feeling stopped and Lith was back to normal.

He clicked his tongue in annoyance as such a beautiful scenario was over so quickly.

"HEY AUNT, I WANNA SEE THAT SEXY LOOK AGAIN!" Lith didn't suppress his thoughts and said out loud.

"GO PAST ME AGAIN!"

"SUPPRESS ME!"

"DOMINATE ME!"

Lith said so shamelessly and this made Mayzin's super serious brain to shut down and feel some embarrassment.

While paddling away, with a flushed face, Mayzin gritted her teeth and thought to herself, 'Why's this kid like this!? Why can't he be normal!? What does he even see in me…'

Many thoughts went in Mayzin's mind, but the goal of beating Lith was never gone and she continued to paddle, not stopping for even a second.

"AUUNTAAAAYYYY LOOK AT ME!"

"SHUT UP!" Mayzin couldn't hold the embarrassment anymore and exclaimed.

"AAANNNTAAAYYYY YOU SEGGSSSYYYY!"

Lith however, didn't stop. He continued to yell some more and this made Mayzin's face further red.

If this was any normal time, she would've either forcefully sent Lith away somewhere or distracted him with training.

But today, she couldn't do either of these things as it was supposed to be a date and she had to spend the whole day with him.

Mayzin cursed internally at how shameless her nephew was, but somewhere down the line, even though his words were embarrassing, she sort of liked them.

I mean… who didn't like compliments?

Mayzin was a lady too at the end of a day and compliments were always welcomed. It was just that she was too prideful to accept the fact that she liked compliments.

A really big tsundere she was, if one were to say.

Lith was aware of this fact and was teasing this tsundere to no end, making her blush like a little girl.

Lith couldn't see the face of his aunt, but hearing her flustered words, he thought he was doing a good job and continued on with the yelling.

Meanwhile, back in the Royal Castle.

"Damn, so shameless!" Lucifer munched on popcorn and said while making loud chewing sounds.

Arya, sitting right beside her, took some popcorn from her endless popcorn bucket and munching on them, commented, "Indeed. But that's one of his many loving qualities."

"Cheh, Ari-chan. You shouldn't say such things, at least in front of that pervert, otherwise his cockiness would have no end to it." Lucifer reminded Arya.

Apparently, while watching the live stream, the two had gotten close due to their mutual discussion on Mayzin's pride.

Both had an opinion that Mayzin should loosen up her pride, otherwise no one would come to water her secret garden.

Getting one's secret garden was an absolutely amazing feeling in this world and since Arya and Lucifer both cared for this 'purple-haired bitch', they wanted her to feel the pleasures they were feeling too.

"Fufufu… baby is doing a good job." Lilith joined their conversation and said.

Agalea from the side added, "He sure has Mayzin's emotions in grasp."

Lucifer and Arya both nodded at this.

"For the first time I've seen this bitch make such a face." Lucifer said in her usual tone.

Now that her kids weren't with her, she felt free to speak whatever she wanted. Add to that, Mayzin's stupid pride naturally brought out the B-word from her mouth.

The four conversed together some more while watching Lith on the stream.

Mayzin had overtaken him and got ahead on the stream now.

This made Agalea question, "Do you guys think Lith has a chance to win?"

The question made the three to look at Agalea.

Lucifer, stopping her munching, stroked her chin and said in a serious manner, "Well, you see…"
