Matt watched from a safe position, awaiting the arrival of the person on whom he would test his skill.
He needed it to be a strong person, but he would never show himself if the one arriving were the Imperial Princess or someone with over 30,000 power.
That's true; Alice and Matt have increased their power, but they are still quite far from fighting someone with 30,000 power. It's a terrifying existence and is respected worldwide, after all.
That's why, after attracting the attention of those people, he hid in a safe place.
Both's power levels had skyrocketed to an astonishing height. It has been good training days, and thanks to him and Alice being a bloody couple, she has also managed to advance. Still, she has also witnessed that the speed at which Matt is growing is astounding.
'He's not just growing in vampiric power level, his body looks more powerful and resilient, even his personality has changed... I wonder if it's a change for the better.' Alice thought, watching Matt's countenance from the side.
Still, a slight commotion soon brought them out of their thoughts, and they looked off into the distance.
"Looks like the fighting's already started on the other side; who's fighting?"
"It's Ava. She doesn't seem to be in trouble; the ones I'm worried about are the ones in the West... It looks like many will die today." Matt sighed slightly after seeing this but stood up.
'I didn't think my maneuvers would get the attention of people as powerful as Vanessa; that woman will spoil much of my plans.' He said in his mind in complaint.
He underestimated that woman, or perhaps he didn't think she would be so decisive in her decisions.
This is the first time he has met such a human. Since he was human in his past life, naturally, he understands how humans think.
Those at the top of the pyramid usually don't tend to make such decisive moves because it doesn't go according to their status or perhaps because they don't want to lose more than they could ever gain. That also tends to make them lose more when they face an opponent like Matt.
But this time, it was different. The woman in front of him was not like most humans. She knew that sending her people out to fight all alone could backfire. Many could die, and since she didn't know what enemy she was facing or how many of them there were, she decided to make a mass attack.
Not only to help her subordinates and avoid unnecessary deaths but also to destroy the traitors she had been looking for for some time. It was two birds with one stone.
'She's a smart woman, but... I'm also not bad if you send me this little one.' Matt thought after looking at the arriving person.
"Matt, look, it's that woman..." Alice then recognized her.
It was that Grand Sorceress who had appeared out of nowhere in the battle at the frontier. Alice felt her skin burn, wanting to confront her.
Now that she had used her ability a few times, she wanted to test how much she could do against a Grand Sorceress with an Expansive Domain.
But Matt put his hand on her shoulder.
"Don't go up against her; it would be a waste of your ability. Look." He said, and he pointed to several spots behind that woman.
There were shadows moving in the darkness there; only the silhouette was visible because everything was dark, but what they were was obvious.
"Those assassins will come in handy for feeding, won't they? I'll take care of that woman; I'll turn her into a vampire."
Alice smiled softly and nodded at him. "Then I'll start by eating those guys. I'll have time later to test my strength against a Grand Sorcerer," she said with a sinister smile.
The people below quickly surrounded the semi-destroyed building.
"Miss... There's something strange." Said one of the assassins as he approached the woman before him.
"I don't need you to tell me." She quickly looked around and stomped her foot on the ground.
Her Expansive Domain spread to all sides at a surprising speed, and everything before her sight slowed down.
"Show yourself!" she shouted, looking at everything in this dark room.
The screams had no idea where they came from, but they didn't care.
At her shout, the trained assassins quickly readied themselves.
Matt smiled at the sight and jumped up. "Hey, long time no see, Grand Sorceress."
"You... Matthew Dietrich!" shouted Caroline in shock after seeing him.
"It's been a few months since we last saw each other. Although I feel like I've lost track of time, I still clearly remember our last encounter." He said as he looked at the missing arm of that woman.
'Such an amazing ability; only a saint weapon could have it.' He thought.
Caroline frowned slightly but smiled soon after.
From one moment to the next, she moved at immense speed towards Matt, arriving before him instantly.
"I'VE BEEN WANTING THIS MOMENT FOR A LONG TIME! IT'S TIME TO DIE, MATTHEW DIETRICH!" she screamed hysterically and threw a punch to his chest.
This punch was not just any punch. Her fist was imbued with all her mana, so she wanted to end the fight in one punch.
Matt immediately punched her back at high speed. Both fists collided with force, unleashing a tremendous thunderous impact that sent Matt slightly backward by a few feet.
"What? Impossible!" In shock, Caroline moved again at great speed towards Matt, propelling herself and taking advantage of the fact that Matt was disadvantaged due to so many openings.
Still, before she could even move, she felt her stomach hurt, and a large gulp of blood came out of her mouth. Her body was sent backward, changing her perspective.
Unbeknownst to her, Matt was now on top of her, delivering a powerful blow that deprived her of air for a moment.
"You've got strong, Great Sorceress, but not strong enough. You gave me so much trouble that time that I wanted to face you again, so I've been training hard these past few months. Still, I seem to have gotten too strong for you now." Matt smiled after saying this and punched her hard in the stomach to slam her to the ground.
