3 Vampire mentor 1

Bravery.... what is it? When you have nothing to lose, and still go on, is it bravery? When you have so many things at stake, and still fight, is that bravery? If you knew that you'd die, and still fought, is that BRAVERY OR STUPIDITY?

So many things willingly lost, yet you complain. So many things gained, yet your greed knows no bounds.... this is human nature, for we are sin incarnated.

(AN: Chapter 2, Forgot, will regularly be updated, changing the affinities that the Spirits have, as I'm no good at remembering some stuff, and come up with possible ways to make anything OP.)

Waking up to sunlight hitting his eyes though the gabs in the leaves, Xiao Bai got up from his makeshift bed, and carefully checked the outside before even thinking of going out.

Once he checked a couple of times, and making sure the coast was clear, Xiao Bai slowly, and carefully, made his way outside the hollow tree.

Looking around his surroundings, Xiao Bai could see a few carcasses of a few Spirit Beasts, and a couple of Spirit Rings. And, the lingering scent of blood added a dangerously mysterious atmosphere to the place.

Of course, when Xiao Bai saw the rings, he didn't even think of using even one of them. After all, he didn't know what Spirit Beast it was from, and wouldn't take the risk.

"Let's salvage the carcasses." Xiao Bai said, as he moved closer to the remains. As he did, he heard noises from the bushes near one of the carcasses.

*swoosh!*

A black furred Spider appeared, and started to munch on the carcass nearest to it. When Xiao Bai saw theappear, he had already moved to the side, hidden away from the beast's sight. Waiting for the Spider to finish it's meal, Xiao Bai started to check for any more uninvited guests. After a while, the Spider was done, and noisily walked away, leaving Bai to now be able to freely collect some food.

"The strong hunt for food, while the weak salvage for leftovers... *sigh*." Bai stated, as he saw a weird looking colorful object inside one of the empty carcass skeletons. The object in question, had the shape of a sharp scythe looking blade colored light green. Grabbing it, Xiao Bai moved onto the next one, a wolf of some sort.

"This might be a good weapon." Bai said, before he started to use the light green object as a Blade to remove the flesh off some of the untouched remaining flesh.

Moving onto the next, a 1 meter reddish grey owl, Xiao Bai started by removing the feathers. After some struggles, he managed to remove those of the lower abdomen, revealing a perfect place to collect the juicy parts of the meat.

After cutting the stomach, and taking out the remaining guts, Xiao Bai managed to take at-least 5kg of meat from the Owl, before having to leave.

As he was making his way back to his -Safe House-, the noises of creatures fighting, and even roaring, could be heard behind him. After spilling fresh blood, the Spirit Beasts came running like a pack of hungry Spirit Beasts to a carcass.... 'wait, isn't this just a description of what's happening?'

Arriving at his -Safe House-, a hole in a tree, Xiao Bai tightly packed most his food into a few leaves, and created a hole into the ground, before burying the packed meat into the ground. Once done with that, Xiao Bai put his attention on the few pounds of meat that wasn't buried.

"I guess, now's the time to check my Spirits." Xiao Bai said, before quickly checking the -System- for the location of His spirits. But, in the process of during so, he found something he totally forgot about.

"Shit!" Was all Xiao Bai said, before going to the buried meat, and digging it back out. Once the meat was in his hands, he cleaned the meat before putting it into his -Inventory-. "To think I forgot about it... *sigh~*."

After going through a short depression state, Xiao Bai went back to looking for the locations of his Spirits.

[-Spirit Locations-

Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon- Right Hand

Frostmourne- Left Hand]

Closing the screen,Xiao Bai checked his right hand, and quickly found what he was looking for— a cooling blue dragon Mark.

Willing the Mark to be activated, Bai's right arm started to grow Blue Dragon Scales, his nails became black razor sharp curved blades, and violent blue Lightning could be seen randomly coiling around his arm.

"Now then," he said, before he started to practice controlling the Lightning. After half an hour, Xiao Bai managed to have enough control over the Lightning to actually use it in combat.

Getting some dried sticks, and other flammable materials, Xiao Bai controlled the Lightning to make a tiny beam of Lightning hit the stack of materials laid out on the side.

'Where there's smoke...' Xiao Bai thoughts stopped, as he saw smoke coming out of the stack, before actually speaking, "there's fire." As the stack of materials caught on fire.

Quickly driving a stick into the meat, Bai placed the meat on top the fire, twisting it every few seconds. As the meat cocked, smoke appeared, and the smell of the meat spread.

In a matter of seconds, the inside of the tree was filled with smoke. Thinking fast, Bai places The now cocked meat into his -Inventory-, and got the fuck out of there.
