Odayaka

Alvin was just another waiter, trying to make a living in another country where living was a battlefield.

But all of a sudden his life took an unexpected turn when their restaurant had a not usual guest. 

One night, all it took was one night to turn his life upside down. 

Alvin became something he thought was only possible in myths or movies. His life meant a lot, and not just to himself.

Now he must learn to steel himself to prepare for what's to come, to shed his fear of death, and to move on from the loss of his loved ones. 

To live like a VAMPIRE.

...and to feed like one. 

The only relief he had after discarding his identity as a human was that he could still eat his favorite stuffed garlic bread.

As he moved on with his life, day by day, facing challenges upon challenges, Alvin started sensing something amiss about himself, about his life.

Why did it suddenly start to feel like something was watching his every move from the shadow? Why did every action seem to be pushed by someone lurking behind the scenes?

The Eternal Gambit

The next morning, Alvin lay flat on the floor of his room, staring at the ceiling lights with a lost look on his face. "Does exercising like this even have a meaning left?"

He had just finished a set of a thousand push-ups, a thousand sit-ups, and a thousand pull-ups, yet there was not even a single drop of sweat on his face.

'It appears I have unlimited stamina, or maybe I have not reached the limit that my body is capable of.' Alvin clenched his hand in front of his face, feeling the power coursing through his body.

Had it not been for his nearly inexhaustible stamina, he might have gained something from exercising like this.
