Vampire's Slice Of Life

119 Teacher Tricked Me

"I can understand about others but your highness, how did you fail too?" Dennis asked Lith while walking out of the classroom.

Ralph too looked at Lith and was interested in knowing the reason for his failure. He previously believed that Lith would top the assignment, but who knew that he would also fail like this?

Everyone around the trio perked their ears and tried to sneakily listen to the trio's convo. Lith noticed it and said sighing,

"Not here. I'll answer it when we reach our dorms."

The two nodded their heads and left for their dorm building.

The people present around the trio clicked their tongues in annoyance. They too wanted to know the reason behind his failure, but it seemed like they weren't getting any today.

...

Lith's Dorm, Abalax sky island.

"So, what happened, your highness?" Dennis asked as soon as they sat on the sofa in the lounge on the ground floor of the dorm building.

"Well, long story short, teacher tricked me." Lith said, looking at both of them while standing near the teapot.

"What!? Isn't this against the rules? Wasn't teacher Sel supposed to be invigilating?" Dennis said hurriedly.

Ralph nodded his head in approval, indicating he had the same question.

Lith shook his head and said, "It wasn't teacher Sel. It was our teacher. She arrived at the last moment when I was resting with all the flags. She kept me busy in a conversation with her and just as time was about to be up, she left.

After she left, I looked for the flags only to realise they were all gone. She tricked me and I even fell for it. I thought she was really sad about something, but in the end, it was all just nonsense made up to fool me. Sigh, am I becoming more stupid by being around you Dennis?"

"Huh?! Your highness, how is that possible?!" Dennis questioned hurriedly.

Ralph chuckled lightly along with Lith at the joke. The latter continued, "I am joking. Anyway, lesson learnt. Never trust teacher."

"Hoh? That's some good lesson that you have learnt, my dear student." Arya's voice rang in everyone's ears and they turned their heads to look at her.

"I am making tea, please have a seat, teacher." Lith said while brewing the tea.

"Oh my, so polite even after my small prank. Heh heh." Arya chuckled lightly and sat down on the empty couch present opposite to the one Ralph and Dennis were sitting on.

"Of course. I just learnt not to trust you. I didn't learn about disrespecting you." Lith looked at the tea brewing and said without looking at Arya.

Arya raised an eyebrow in amusement. She smiled lightly after hearing Lith's words.

"Teacher, tell us, how did you trick his highness?" Dennis asked. He really wanted to know what happened that made the whole class fail but, didn't get any good response yet.

"Oh, you see, at the last minute, I came and talked to Lith. During that time when he was busy having a conversation with me, a Renzig Rabbit came and stole the flags.

As you know, Renzig Rabbits do not create even a slight disturbance in the surroundings when they move. Until and unless you see one with your eyes, you will never know that they even exist.

You are all rank 2s currently and to spot a Renzig Rabbit, even the lowest tier 1, you would need to be at least a rank 4. Obviously, I had no hand in it, the rabbit came out of nowhere and stole the flags." Arya said while smiling.

Dennis and Ralph narrowed their eyes and looked at their teacher suspiciously. They obviously didn't believe what their teacher said in the latter part.

Lith finished making tea and poured it into four cups to serve them. After serving the tea, he sat beside Arya and started sipping his tea.

Arya chuckled at Lith's action and said, "I was joking last time, you know? You don't have to be so serious and avoid your friends."

Lith put down the cup on the saucer, turned to Arya and said, "better safe than sorry."

Ralph and Dennis neither had any idea what was going on, nor what Lith meant by his words. Nevertheless, they chose to be ignorant and continued sipping their tea.

What Lith meant by his words was, he would try his best not to do things that would make Arya misunderstand him again or find fault and prank him. Arya understood the meaning and chuckled once again.

The four talked for a bit and after finishing their tea, everyone went to their respective floors.

Lith went to the bath, showered, came out and got dressed. He was wearing plain grey shorts and a black t-shirt and nothing on his feet. In his past life, from the place he was from, people didn't wear shoes inside the house and mostly moved about barefoot. This tradition stayed with him even in this life.

Lilith felt comfortable barefoot, so she hardly wore any shoes and, since Lith stayed with her in her bedroom for so many years, wearing shoes inside the bedroom didn't cross his mind, letting his habit from past life stay.

Lith went and laid down on the bed. Laying on the bed while in comfy clothes was one of the things Lith looked forward to every day. It feels amazing to rest like this after a day of hard work.

Just as he was about to go to sleep, space fluctuated in his bedroom, but before he could turn to react, two silver-haired, purple-eyed figures that looked very similar walked out of thin air.

It was Lilith and Lucy who had just arrived. Lucy was currently holding Rena, the Purple Night Wolf, in her hand.

Lith got up from his bed and walked towards them with a smile. Putting down Rena, Lucy extended her arms forward, indicating that she wanted a hug.

Lith moved closer to hug both of them and said, "I missed you, mom, big sis."

Lilith and Lucy smiled after hearing Lith's response. Both of them gave him a kiss on his cheeks and said in unison, " We missed you too."
