Venomous creatures of all types: flying, crawling, gliding, and hopping charged towards Lith.
Lith was calm and tried to feel the Fire elent in his surroundings, wanting to incinerate all these creatures.
Much to his surprise, there was not even an ounce of Fire elent present.
Not just Fire, there were no elents whatsoever.
Without elents, there were no spells Lith could use and this was troubleso.
Yet, he wasn't panicking and stayed calm.
Looking at the oncoming creatures, they seed of low ranks. Their bite won't cause death but in the absence of elents, Lith would not have proper regeneration even though he was a vampire.
Thinking about what to do, sothing struck Lith.
He imdiately sat down and closing his eyes, focused.
He focused on a single thing:
His soul.
One thing that Lith felt a great connection to was his soul ever since he had died in his previous life.
This connection was really faint but over the years of training, it beca stronger.
Lith had never gotten an opportunity to test his soul, but now seed like one and he wasn't going to back away.
As he focused on his soul, he could make out a rough outline of grayish aura in a vast darkness.
This grayish aura was becoming brighter and soon took shape of himself ditating.
Lith spread his consciousness outside and in the dark, a few more grayish auras appeared, their shapes being that of the creatures charging towards Lith.
Bit by bit, mont by mont, the grayish auras increased while Lith's own turned really bright.
Feeling a connection with his own soul, Lith tried to command it.
He failed for quite so ti and the creatures had rushed really close to him.
A snake had made its way towards Lith's body and had already bitten him hard on his leg.
It stinged Lith, but his pain tolerance was so high, he managed to ignore it and focus.
Soon, a few more creatures ca and tore away Lith's flesh and injected their venom in him.
However, it was at this mont…
Lith's bright grayish aura trembled!
The aura, more correctly his soul, eventually had a proper connection with Lith's mind.
Lith tried commanding it and after a few tries, succeeded.
The grayish aura stood up from its ditative pose and looking at the souls of the creatures intact in one place, stomped on them one by one.
The snakes in real life hissed in agony as they felt excruciating pain from sowhere unimaginable and died on the spot.
One after another, the creatures biting on Lith's body died without any physical pain.
The sea of creatures were then killed slowly and finally when Lith was done, his souls ca back to his body and he opened his eyes.
As Lith regained connection with his body, he felt a sharp pain all over him and then puked blood imdiately.
Looking at himself, his body had beco blue due to the venom and there was flesh missing in many areas.
He was also bleeding heavily but thanks to being a vampire, he controlled his own blood and stopped it from flowing outside.
Clap! Clap! Clap!
"Soul attack? I didn't think you would do such a thing, nephew Lith." Mayzin said as she walked close to him.
Lith was unable to respond to her as his throat was filled with blood.
Mayzin got close to Lith and firstly ensured his well being by healing him.
His flesh grew back and his complexion returned to his usual healthy pale self.
Due to being bitten all over by many creatures, his clothes were in tatters and Mayzin unknowingly had a look at his body and also at his little brother.
Though she pretended she didn't see it and tapped on Lith's body a few tis, restoring his clothes.
She then gave him a hand and once he?was up, said, "this was unexpected and surprising."
Lith looked at her and shrugged. "I have no idea what else I was supposed to do here."
"What else? Escape!" Mayzin exclaid. She pulled Lith's cheek and continued, "there are tis when fighting isn't the right option, but escaping is. This situation was made in a manner where you could escape. There are exits in this room, you just had to trigger them properly to have them open up."
Mayzin wanted to test Lith's observational as well as analytical skills here.
She did see a glimpse of it, but not in the way she wanted to.
Lith did sothing completely out of the box and it took her aback.
Who would've thought that there would co a ti where she would be watching soone so young train their soul as well as use them during battle.
Lith rubbed his temples as he heard that and thought, 'I really should've checked other options…'
What he did was really risky. Although he had faith in himself, the chances of survival weren't even fifty-fifty.
He took a risk and triumphed at the end, but it was a risk he could've avoided by looking for other options.
'I need to be more careful from here on.'
Lith started taking his aunt's training more seriously now as he realized his life was in more danger here with her than anywhere else.
Shaking her head, Mayzin said, "we'll start your training now. I know you have a banquet to attend a week later, that's why we're not starting anything related to crowd control. Let's raise your attainnts until then."
Saying so, Mayzin took Lith away from this chamber and they were now in a grand hall that had thousands of runes all around it.
Mayzin kneeled down and touching a rune below her, she explained:
"All these runes contain a lot of errors. Fix them with whatever knowledge you have and by the end of finishing these all, you should have your attainnt in Space and Lighting raised by a considerable degree."
The rune Mayzin had touched started glowing after her touch and then disappeared.
"It'll vanish once fixed." Mayzin said and brought out a chair from thin air.
She placed it on the empty spot where the rune previously was and sat on it.
Taking out her phone, she looked at it and said, "This is a six hundred square ters hall, and I want you to finish a hundred square ters in a day. If you don't, there's going to be punishnt."
"Get started and excel at this."
"Your ti starts…"
"Now!"
