Chapter 209: The Vampire
Chapter 209: The Vampire
He was aware of his identity at this point. He was not a fool to think that he had nothing to do with that Legendary Clan from millions of years ago.
He was sure that his connection to that Clan was deep, and although he could not understand how he came to this era, he was not worried. There had to be a reason for it, and he was sure he would know it someday.
For now, he wanted to understand why he came to this world. For some reason, these thoughts came to him while waiting for the Book to show him his abilities. It was as if he unconsciously knew that the book would tell him why he had come here or why he was still alive.
The book immediately showed his abilities. After traveling through various skills, he focused on the book's last written part.
There were two new skills there.
The first of them had a peculiar name...
[The Vampire]
You have been recognized as [The Vampire] by your Royal Blood.
The Vampire: Conditional Ultimate Ability:
When [The Vampire] sucks the blood of any existing living being in the world, you may turn them into a Vampire, receiving blood purity enhancements and True Vampirism.
Condition: Suck the blood.
Target(s): Any living being.
Owner: Matthew Dietrich, [The Vampire].
Any person turned into a vampire using this ability will receive a blood purity enhancement each time [The Vampire] sucks their blood.
Evolutionary type skill.
The detailed explanations of the ability excited Matt. This ability was more impressive than he expected to receive.
He still couldn't understand why he had connected with the Inheritance Token in such an easy way, but he didn't bother to think about it because he had an idea about it as to what it could have been.
Besides this, seeing what the ability said, he didn't need to think about it.
'Royal Blood... Is it Dietrich's Blood?'
The ability in front of him was amazing. It would allow him to create vampires from other races, which was given to him because of this Blood of his. Such a fantastic ability made him remember the words Reagan Cooper said to him when he asked those questions.
'Is it the inherited blood of a Vampire Progenitor?' he thought. He couldn't think of anything other than that.
The thing is, there was a difference between the skills the rest of the Heirs were receiving and the one he was receiving right now, and technically, those Heirs also had the blood of the Dietrich Clan in their veins.
'Is it because of the purity of blood?' That was all he could think of after realizing that.
But he honestly didn't care; he had just received a skill full of riddles that made his blood boil, which was the important thing.
One thing was clear: his objective in this empire had been clarified. At no point does this ability mention a power condition, meaning that, as long as he is cunning enough to get close to a mighty person, he could turn him into a vampire. From how it says it, this vampire may be tied to him somehow.
That being the case, why not seek to turn as many humans as possible into members of a secret organization within the empire? Besides, if he could get a powerful being in the empire to be a vampire, he could use him as cannon fodder to flee or even have a person within the human ranks serve as a spy.
This was the best ability he could receive.
Keeping his excitement, Matt checked his second ability obtained. This one was not so surprising.
Union-Major Type Skill - Dual Charming.
[Dual Charming: Conditional Skill: When you practice Dual Charming and the connection reaches the deepest level, both of you will receive an Enhanced Boost in Vampiric Power.
When you practice Dual Charming with someone, you can pass on a union-minor type skill to your partner, granting them the ability to become stronger.
'Dual Charming? I only read that name a few times; what was it?' Slightly confused, Matt looked at Alice, who was waiting patiently.
"What is Dual Charming? It seems I received two abilities; one of them is a conditional ability, and it says I can pass it on to other people, but the condition is to practice Dual Charming."
Alice looked at him in surprise, "Two skills too? And you can pass that skill on..." She was in shock, but then she remembered that Matt had fused with her Inheritance Token easily and in a moment.
'Who is Matt?" she couldn't help but think so. There were too many strange things about this case, but she sighed in the end.
She didn't want to ask him so as not to make him uncomfortable, so she focused on answering his question.
"Dual Charming is a Forbidden Technique... Honestly, there is not much information regarding it, and in this day and age, it is not practiced much.
But the idea behind Dual Charming is to make the deepest connection that can be achieved as a couple and unite the Vampirisms in a perfect connection that only Man and Woman can achieve, or at least that's what the ancestors left us written." She replied.
Her answer made Matt frown, "Deep connection? You mean sexual relations as a couple?" He asked, and Alice nodded.
"That's right." Alice blushed slightly after answering that, but that's what the ability was.
'And to think that there is such an ability. It reminds me of earth fantasy novels and also Chinese ancestral teachings... It seems they had something like it is... Dual Cultivation, was it?' Surprised but not stunned, Matt asked Alice about her ability. He didn't want to tell her about his other ability because now was not the time.
From what he knew, that ability might not make sense by today's standards. As far as he knew, turning someone of a different race into a vampire was not something that could be done. Although there are half-vampires among the vampire race, it is not because they were created; they were born from a union of races.
Therefore, it was best to keep this ability a secret for now.
