Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!

Chapter 143: The location of the Forbidden Library

But just as he thought he had found something, he frowned and looked down.

'This city... Isn't it a little weird?' he thought.

His eye swept over the whole city, buildings, and other things.

'It looks like... a chessboard.' He thought, realizing this.

So, he moved his sight all over the city and was more and more convinced that it could be something like that.

He tried to mark the map as if it were a chessboard and then realized that it did, in fact, look very similar to one.

But there was something that didn't add up.

'This is strange...' He thought, looking at the map and the city.

A portable chessboard normally tends to close inwards, so it has an opening in the middle, which is a regular thing.

But those kinds of boards are not very common.

Also, if someone were to make a city in the shape of a chessboard, why on earth would they make an opening in the middle of it, just as a representation?

After all, that opening isn't even necessary or part of the board.

And this city seemed to have it. In the middle of the town is a vast mansion that is as expansive as the city itself and belongs to the city leaders.

That opening was not thin like a chess opening, but rather, according to the map and what is said about this city, it is an extended opening that goes from side to side and looks as if it was made by a child playing in the dirt.

Initially, it divided the city, but with the arrival of the current leaders, it became part of the enormous mansion they had built for themselves.

No one cares because they were the ones who allowed that huge opening to have utility and meaning, since before, its only use was to be filled with water so that it would not damage the city's beauty.

Today, the opening in the ground is called 'The Boreal Rift', and it has a reason.

Which Matt finds stranger than anything else he has ever seen. It's even stranger than the reason he came into this world.

It is said that at one time of the year, the crack is filled with crystalline water, which explodes to form strange gases, which then become the beautiful Aurora Borealis that grace the nights in the City of Clans.

This is the main reason for the attraction of this city, around beauty, because it is something unique that only happens in this place.

Now, that doesn't make sense.

No matter how Matt sees it, how can something so simple create Aurora Borealis?

They spend the whole formation process studied on Earth, where the sun doesn't shine on them, with such vague and stupid explanations.

Therefore, Matt is sure of one thing. Either the name given to another phenomenon here is the same as the one they had on earth for a phenomenon like the aurora borealis, or what happens there is simply not as simple as that explanation.

That was his conclusion once he heard about it.

But...

Now he understands.

'It's a process to open the Forbidden Library!' he thought.

'What's more, maybe the city itself is the forbidden Library, and maybe that's why they protect it so much!' he thought in shock.

His mind could only find that explanation rational for all that he had thought.

From the moment he started thinking about why the clans and that organization didn't dare move on this city until he ran out to understand this city and find the Forbidden Library, this has been the most helpful thought he has ever had.

Because if he is correct, he has just found this city's most closely guarded secret.

And if it was something so special, capable of creating aurora borealis, which need rays from the sun to form, then it makes sense that the clans are somewhat afraid of this city!

As his thoughts wandered and his heart raced after realizing this, Matt felt a terrifying presence near him.

It caused him to tremble slightly, and he quickly disappeared into the night's darkness.

His figure was lost in this darkness, and he didn't look back as he ran away.

A second after he disappeared, a person appeared atop that building.

'Was there anyone here? I felt a faint presence...' He thought.

His face wasn't visible, but he didn't look too old. Still, his presence was incredibly powerful.

After looking around, he sighed.

'I must have felt bad; I was too weak.' He thought and looked towards a specific place in the city.

'The Kingdom is causing trouble again. How annoying these bastards are; every time they do, a Vampire Clan shows up and runs the risk of the secret being revealed, but why the hell are there two of them now? And who is this bastard that has such a powerful presence? Shit, he can't even be bothered to hide it from me.' Thought the man, slightly annoyed.

'Hmph, if they think they can come to my city to cause trouble, then I hope they also think I can create enough trouble for them to disappear from my sight, bastards.' Once he stated that in his mind, he disappeared again.

His presence seemed to move towards the city's central region, the vast mansion that posed there and frightened everyone...

More than a mansion, that mansion was like a giant castle that looked scary.

.

Matt didn't look back during his long walk and did his best to hide his presence as best he knew how.

Until he finally made it to his room and could finally breathe...

"Haah, shit, what was that? How could such a terrifying presence exist in this world?" thought Matt and looked at his hands.

They were shaking slightly.

That presence wasn't even directed at him, but it still made him feel afraid, as it seemed to be angry.

'If he had discovered me, I would be dead, possibly...' Matt thought and took a deep breath.

Tonight, he was satisfied. He had found precious information about this city, information that, if revealed, could perhaps cause an immense scandal in the entire world.

For it was the location of a Forbidden Library.

'If what Alice told me is true, even the Heirs might kill for laying their hand on this place if they knew what I discovered. After all, it would seem that completing the mission given to them as heirs is something of utmost importance to them...' He thought.

Still, he soon decided to go to sleep.

It was better to focus on what was in front of him now. He didn't think that just by thinking for a while, he would find the location of something so important, but it's not like he could go there to open it.

He was so weak, having found it would already be considered a commendable achievement.

And right now, it was better to destroy the bastards that have been chasing him for so long.

As he was planning to go to sleep, a small bird came to him with a message, which made him smile.

'It's gone on long enough, this stupid arc where some idiot marked me as a target in a strange organization. I think it's time I put an end to this and finish confirming my suspicions. At least I hope to get a big reward when I finish with these bastards.' Matt thought, smiling slightly after getting a good message from Alice.
