Vampire Cultivation System in a Hidden World of Monsters

I was surprisingly not hit by any bullets. The kitsune ran up to me and away from the line of bullets. It dodged through the laser wall. I got up as quickly as I could to meet its attacks, but halfway to me it disappeared from my vision.

Then I was hit in the stomach by a kick. Shit. Did it use its illusion abilities to turn invisible? Must have. I put my hands up to guard my head and face as I was pummeled with kicks by an unseen source.

I had to figure out a way to see or sense the kitsune's movements and position. Otherwise I would just keep getting hit by its invisible kicks. My sword. If I could get its blood on the blade somehow, I could track its movements and 'see' it in a sense.

My sword was laying on the ground just beyond the line of machine gun fire. I waited for the machine gun fire to move past my sword and let the kitsune continue to kick the sh*t out of me.

As soon as the machine gun fire passed over my sword, I leaped and rolled over to it. I grabbed it and leap rolled back in the other direction, hopefully past the kitsune. I got up, dodged through the laser wall, and ran to the other side of the arena where I had hit the kitsune with a dagger.

I leaped through the line of gun fire again and rolled out of it, arriving right next to a few droplets of blood on the ground. I tapped the tip of my sword, Blood Fiend, into the blood and tried to intuitively activate its ability, Blood Sense.

Blood Sense allowed me to sense the location of all the blood of someone who the Blood Fiend had tasted. This gave me an intuitive sense where someone was and their individual movements without even having to look at them.

"Fourth coin toss! Gravity fluctuations or shifting platforms?" The announcer said.

I felt the kitsune behind me as it moved its hand to influence the coin toss. It was close behind me, so I swung my sword around as I turned and swiped at the kitsune. It narrowly dodged the blade by jumping back.

With it being invisible and the only way for me to sense it being my blood sense ability, it looked like a glowing red humanoid shaped figure of blood to my eyes. I could still intuitively sense its movements but I could also see it this way.

It had to drop its coin influencing hand when it dodged.

"Heads yet again! Gravity fluctuations it is!" The announcer said.

All of a sudden I could barely move. I felt heavy. Then a few moments later, I started to float off the floor. I couldn't move in any direction without being able to touch something, and the turret fire was coming my way.

Thinking quickly, I stuck my hand out towards the ground and performed a Vi blast from my palm. The blast didn't extend past my palm. It just blasted the air around my palm, but it did what I wanted it to do.

It sent me flying up away from the turret fire. I narrowly dodged the turret fire this way. With my sword in my right hand, I performed a Vi blast aimed behind me with my left hand. It pushed me forward towards the now floating kitsune.

It was about as helpless as I initially was. It didn't seem able to perform blasts like I could to propel itself. It was just caught floating. When I got close to it, I used the Blood Draw ability and coated my sword in my blood, but this time I dulled the blade.

This way when I hit the kitsune with it, it wouldn't get chopped in half and die. I slammed my now blunt sword blade into the kitsune's midsection, sending it back to the ground. It hit the ground hard despite the lack of gravity and hit its head on the concrete floor, knocking it out.

The kitsune then became visible again and laid still. The turret was coming around again and getting close to the kitsune. No one had stopped the traps yet. Maybe they didn't know that it was knocked out.

I had to do something, so I sheathed my blade, propelled myself down to the ground with a Vi blast, grabbed the kitsune under my arm, and Vi blasted myself away from the turret fire just in the nick of time.

"Stop the traps!" I yelled. "The fight is over!"

"Huh?" The announcer said. He looked closer at the kitsune in my arms and said, "So it is. Deactivate the traps! We have a winner!"

The traps deactivated and I fell back down to the ground when the gravity came back. I laid the kitsune gently on the ground as the fairy medic came down into the pit to provide medical aid.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

She healed the kitsune's broken arms and the wound in its side. However, the kitsune remained unconscious. The fight must have taken a lot out of it. I couldn't imagine what it must have been like to continue fighting with two broken arms.

Despite my victory, I acknowledged that the kitsune was a strong opponent. One I wouldn't mind facing again, if given the opportunity. The medics took it away on a stretcher.

The fairy medic came up to me to check on my injuries but I had none left. They had already healed. She gave me a good bill of health and followed the rest of the medics with the stretcher.

"Ladies and Gentlemen! We have a winner! Dylan Sanguis is his name and kicking ass is his game! Give it up for Dylan Sanguis everybody!" The announcer said, fake clapping in front of me.

The crowd hollered and cheered and clapped. Some random woman yelled out, "I love you Dylan Sanguis!" Nearly everyone in the arena stadium looked at her and she went quiet. They didn't bully her. They just looked. Apparently that was enough.

"He's not getting a brand new car! He's getting something better! Prize money! Two hundred gold giblets to be exact." The announcer said.

I couldn't wait to get back to my friends, but I knew I had to participate in the show. It was the polite thing to do, so I waved and smiled.
