Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!

Chapter 135: Finding good information

Matt then left the mansion quickly.

He then began to walk through the city. His hidden aura allowed him to pass by a few people walking through the streets without them noticing.

As he walked, he began to mark important places on the map, areas that could be used for hiding, and so on.

Thus, a full day passed.

Matt's first day in the City of Clans.

During this whole day, he did not investigate anything; he simply marked everything he thought was important on the map. Although he did not manage to walk the entire city, he still marked all the territory around his targets' mansions.

Thanks to this, he noticed that, during the night hours, the guards were more active.

Several groups of guards walked every street every few hours, so the main job took longer.

Still, the next day was over, and as he prepared to return to the mansion, he overheard a small conversation near him.

'On the other street?' Matt thought and quickly ran over there.

'This street is usually lonely, and it's early morning hours...' Matt thought, looking at some people slightly familiar to him.

They were nobles who were among the images he was granted about members of the Basement Organization.

"The leader has called us; it looks like things are going to get dangerous."

"That's right. The leader told me that someone of very high rank came to the city to investigate those bastards. So, we must work all day until he finds them."

"Nothing can be done; we have more information from the city than that person. We must support him to avenge our relatives. Those bastards must die."

"Sigh, and to think I said that idiot... At least he would have left my little nieces with me; nothing would have happened to them..."

The two were walking around here murmuring, which allowed them to hide their aura very well. If it weren't Matt, an assassin and expert in espionage, he wouldn't have noticed their presence.

'Two nieces... Are they the relatives of that family that died in the city?' Matt thought as he followed them.

'The Basement organization has a lot of information about the city, but their way of working is strange, so no one has been able to discover them. Still, it's not that it's strange, they just work with stealth tactics. It's a pity they're so bad at real espionage.' Matt thought as he followed them.

They entered a house, and subsequently, one of them emerged on the other side while the other disappeared in that house. The one who emerged on the other side did not look like the one who should have out.

The only thing similar was his scent, which allowed Matt to follow him.

This was repeated several times until he entered a house in the dark suburbs of the city. In that house, somehow, there was the guy who had disappeared more than ten houses ago.

'Tunnels,' Matt thought, and then they opened a basement hidden between the roots of a tree planted inside the house, and through there, they entered.

'Tsk, what a clever way to do things.' Matt thought and followed them closely.

Finally, the two arrived at a place where three people were working, using various tunnels to send information to other parts of the city.

They looked up to see who had arrived and continued their work while the two new ones started independently.

Matt was close behind them, but no one noticed his presence.

'Very good at hiding, but very bad at noticing someone following them. Too bad.' He thought and looked at the tunnels there. Beside him were several small birds to carry messages.

Because they were black, they were hidden in the darkness of this world.

And occasionally, some messages would go out that way, and some would come in.

'A network of tunnels to send messages... Shit, this is really cunning. According to the King, the one who came up with this way of working was the leader of this organization, is it that elder?' He thought, remembering the elder he had just seen a few hours ago.

Still, he knew he didn't have much time here. Hiding was okay for him, but doing it forever was impossible.

As soon as these guys stopped working, they might become aware of his presence here.

That's why he started to investigate what was written on the scrolls on the table.

His way of doing things while using his dimensional movement to avoid the stares of these guys was fantastic.

Although it wasn't the first time he used it. He had already done it on Earth several times, so he specialized in this kind of thing.

So, he was not discovered.

After he had been reading for a while, he smiled.

'I see, that's how it is.' He thought, remembering the map and everything he had read.

Then, he quickly left the place and came out of the basement.

'You guys may not realize what precious information you have, but it's simple for me now,' he thought. Before leaving the house, he left a message for those familiar guys of that family so they would know they were already avenged. At least he could relieve them.

Once that was done, he ran out of that building and returned to the area of his targets.

He had found several precious things.

'I need to get in touch with those nobles who are my targets. From what I found out, they tend to play golf together and like to make friends who are good wine drinkers. They tend to have a carefree personality, so this won't be difficult.' Matt thought.

With everything he had read there and what he had seen in that place, he could get an idea of how he should investigate, so he walked near the mansions of the noble families he was investigating.

He kept away from Marquis Campbell's street because it was not the time to pass by him.

Thus, he spent a day.

And then another day.

That day at dawn, he finally saw his targets.
