Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!

Chapter 220: First target

The night hours in this city were the same as in any city in the world, with the peculiarity that the ground tended to retain the heat of the day for a prolonged time. In the rest of the world, the ground is always cold, sometimes becoming freezing.

Because of this peculiarity, Matt was able to get there quickly in the morning, arriving on time to save Alice. If not, it might have taken a few seconds longer, and his help could have been hopeless.

But the earth's warmth gave Matt information about what was happening as soon as he heard Alice's scream.

Tonight, the situation was no different.

Matt and Alice quickly arrived at the square that was their target. Security was not too high in this place, but powerful people occasionally walked around. Matt's targets were those.

They looked from a hidden position at the few people walking around, hoping to find a target.

Some moderately strong women crossed the square while walking quietly, walking their animals, or doing other similar things. None of them thought that someone might be staring at them, waiting for the perfect target to make her undergo an amazing transformation.

The reason their targets were women was because Matt wouldn't feel comfortable sucking a man's blood. After all, when he does that, he gets a deep connection between the two people, something he would be uncomfortable with if it were with a man. Also, a more important reason is that 'The Vampire' had a perfect response in Alice.

It increased her power by an absurd margin. Who would think that something as simple as that could increase her vampire power by 5,000? The thing is, Matt noticed that this happened simply because he and Alice were compatible, which makes sense. A man and a woman are compatible, so finding that kind of target is in his best interest.

So, 2 hours passed.

It was three o'clock in the morning. The number of people who had passed by was not too many. Between men and women, some 100 people had crossed from one side to the other.

But most were too weak to get into Matt and Alice's eyes, so they waited patiently for a good target.

Suddenly, a woman of about 25 years old entered under the sight of both. The peculiarity that caught both of their attention was that she had a strong footprint despite not being muscular or fat.

About Alice's height and the same weight, but with such a firm footstep?

'A hero?' Matt thought carefully and nodded to Alice to get ready.

This girl seemed to have simply stepped out for some fresh air. She had nothing with her other than light clothing and some light makeup. She looked a little lovely in the moonlight as she walked through the loneliest section of the square, the darkest as well.

She sighed softly.

"I'm too nervous. It's simply beating a stupid bastard at the Academy." The woman complained softly, though, in the end, she sighed and tried to find peace as she closed her eyes in this lonely square.

She would not see a person if she looked to her right or left. To many, this would be scary, but to her, it simply gave her peace.

"Not doing so would endanger the lady and my whole family... Sigh... Maybe it was best to stay home and not come here." Softly, she went to sit down, but suddenly, she felt someone looking at her, so she turned sharply.

'No one?' She smiled, thinking she was too anxious, so she went to sit down once more on the railings of the square.

But then she was stunned to see a man sitting there.

He smiled at her.

"I hope your match goes well, miss." Matt said.

She was stunned and took a step back. "Who are you?" she asked in shock, and Matt stopped looking at her.

"No one special. I live nearby and came to relax since I can't sleep. I didn't think you'd be so deep in your thoughts and complaints when I approached; you even spoke when I was next to you. That's not good, miss; you might find yourself kidnapped." Matt said in a severe voice.

His words stunned the girl. 'Was I so deep in my thoughts that I didn't notice someone was here?' she thought and stared at Matt.

'I don't sense power in him... From the way he dresses, he must be one of the slum people...' She wasn't surprised by the way Matt dressed because this square was close to the slums. She was more surprised by the fact that she hadn't noticed that someone was nearby.

'God, I'm really too stressed and worried about that...' She sighed and sat down near Matt.

She just wanted to look at the sky and didn't speak for dozens of minutes.

"Sir, what would you do if a very powerful person you can't beat threatened you, your family, and various people you love?" Suddenly, she spoke as she looked at Matt.

She thought Matt might be about 35 years old from his face, so treating him as 'Sir' was expected.

Matt smiled a little at that childish question. "Fight him. If you're in this world and you can't protect the people you love, then what are you doing here?" He looked back at her after saying this, surprising her.

She nodded slightly a few seconds after hearing this.

"You are right... But how can I fight if he is so powerful?" Sighing, she tried to get up.

Matt then spoke. "There's nothing you can do if he's more powerful than you. Only what everyone would do: strengthen yourself. The ways of this life tend to be simpler than they appear."

"What do you mean?" she asked. She couldn't quite understand his words. What did he mean by the ways of life tend to be simpler than they appear?

As she thought so, she noticed Matt's body disappear from where he was.

He appeared behind her and grabbed her around the waist. "I can give you the power you need to stand up to that person who threatens your life and family; that's what I'm talking about." He whispered as he gently held her by the waist and touched her neck.

He then revealed his face, and his vampire fangs were visible next to his beautiful crimson eyes.

She was stunned after hearing this, and when she saw that he was an existence that shouldn't be here, she tried to attack hard, but she realized she couldn't move.

'What the heck? Why do I feel so cold?' She thought in shock...

Suddenly, she felt a slight pain. "Ahh..." A soft moan of pain escaped from her mouth as the pain of feeling fangs digging into her neck reached her...
