Jojo over heaven

102
With a body that did not feel pain.
With an unbelievable strength that crushed my collarbone just by
grazing it--- he attacked me with the intent to kill.
No, that's not right.
It was not trying to kill me.
He was trying to eat me.
If the sun had risen just a few seconds later--- I would likely have
become the "first slice of bread" to that vampire I had accidentally created.
Being an ordinary human at the time, with of course no way of using
Ripple techniques, I had no means of resistance against a vampire, a being that
had surpassed humanity.
The risen sun turned the man's body to ash, to dust, and he disappeared.
And so, I learned that the weakness of that mighty life-form was the sun.
It had all been a coincidence.
There was no intention or plan.
My learning of the stone mask's secret and my learning of the vampires'
weakness were all pure coincidence.--- One could call it nothing but the result of
some mistakes.
But when that many coincidences pile up, it becomes design.
When that many failures piled up, it became something like success.
That is what I believe.
