Chapter 223: See through her eyes
Alice looked thoughtful after hearing this and turned to look at him.
"Are you sure? That woman seems to have some of the purest blood I've ever seen. I understand it being your power, but don't you think you should keep her?" She asked.
Matt sighed and paused. "If she holds out long enough, I don't mind trying to do something to keep her from dying. But I don't care if she ends up dying tomorrow or in 1 week. I'll use these vampires to not reveal our location and confuse the enemy, that'll be enough importance I'm giving her." He replied and went into the bathroom.
He bathed first, then Alice did. Then, that night, both went out again to look for targets.
While they were waiting for a target, Matt began to learn what he could do now that he had such a deep connection with this woman.
To begin with, his connection with this woman was not as effective as his connection with Alice. While it is true that he had transformed her into a vampire and now that woman had received a power boost, it was not as Alice's.
That woman went from 9,100 power to 10,900. The increase was considerable but a far cry from the 5,000 power Alice gained.
Still, the connection he had made seemed to be more profound. There were too many things, and using her as a puppet from a distance was one of them. This was more efficient than it appeared, as it would allow him to launch feints from afar to escape a situation where he was under pursuit.
Moreover, if he could bring one of these puppets close to a high-ranking officer, he could perhaps assassinate him quickly, creating chaos.
But that wasn't all. When Matt closed his eyes, he realized that he could, in fact, do something else.
He soon found himself looking into the other end of eyes that were different from his own.
'Can I see through her eyes? Even move their body from so far away... They're really real puppets.' Matt was in shock after realizing this.
Right now, that woman was in a room with several teachers, all staring at her.
"Are you sure you want to challenge that person in a battle to the death, five days later?" one of the seated men asked as he looked at the student, who now looked a little different.
She looked more determined than several days ago. She was resolute in her response, giving a firm nod without a hint of hesitation.
Then, the teachers could only sigh and make the request for this match to happen. The other person was not obliged to accept it, but considering the hostility between the two and that the other is stronger than her, he would most likely accept.
Still, the point is that there is a big difference between the two's power. This woman did not have much chance of winning, even if she did perfectly in combat; that was why they were sighing exaggeratedly.
A battle to the death that from the start was already decided; there was nothing they could do.
At that moment, the woman turned to leave, and her eyes flashed softly, causing one of the teachers to frown.
"Stop." He said, and he got up from his chair to approach her.
She looked at him doubtfully.
"Professor?" she asked and saw the man approach her quickly.
He looked into her eyes steadily and even touched her face a little where her eye was to check something, causing her to be stunned and almost paralyzed.
He was exerting power in his fingers to check her flesh.
'Is he hesitating?' she thought in shock.
But soon after, he shook his head and smiled at her.
"You may go. We'll let you know if your opponent accepts the match." Replied the professor, smiling towards her.
She then nodded to him without asking him any questions and left, leaving the room a bit silent until she had moved far enough away.
"What happened? That's the first time you've acted so weird." One of the teachers got up to file some things and asked him that question.
The professor shook his head. "No, these last few days I haven't been sleeping well, and I'm seeing strange things. It looks like I should start taking pills once again," he said and sat back down to work. The rest of the teachers stopped asking him questions.
.
Matt had returned to his body a moment before, for a target was before him.
'She's heading for the dark road... Well, it'll be easier this time, ' he thought, and he and Alice disappeared from where they were.
This time, they were going to make an attack like what they had planned, so Alice appeared ahead of this woman.
"Madam, I want to test your strength for a moment." Alice said, smiling slightly and jumping on the woman in front of her, a woman over 35 years old.
She was stunned when she saw Alice's red eyes and felt the vampiric power. She had spent many years here to return home, but this was the first time she had seen a vampire in these parts.
They were in the capital, you know!
Still, she quickly drew her sword to defend herself from Alice's blow.
And just at that moment, a man appeared from behind her and slashed his fangs into her neck in one motion. The woman in front of her stopped, and she felt her body being seized by a strange power that entered her body, which began to wreak havoc.
This time, Matt did not stop the woman from letting out a scream. Her vocal cords were free for a few minutes, so she screamed in great pain.
After a few moments, the three of them disappeared. Matt took this woman to a secluded place so that her transformation could be completed correctly and smoothly.
Afterward, he went to look for more victims since tonight's hunt was just beginning.
Something peculiar is that this time, Matt let each of his victims let out terrifying screams around the square...
