Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!

Chapter 263: Results

When Matt was ejected, he looked around and found himself outside the tests, sitting in the same spot next to Alice, under the ability of a huge spirit. There were no more tests for now.

This made him deep in thought. He even looked a little angry with himself.

In fact, he had failed. He didn't even reach 50% of the 30-minute goal, failing when barely 10 minutes had passed.

It wasn't bad, and he knew it; he could easily understand what was going on, but he had still failed, and understanding what was going on and why he had failed made him a little upset.

Although he can control his thoughts and power and maintain a calm mindset, his personality has not been realized correctly. That is, he does not have a 100% truthful personality, and there is a reason for this.

'Charlotte... No, it's not Charlotte's fault; it's actually my fault. My dependence on Charlotte is the problem that prevented my personality from developing as it should. This isn't the first time I've been told that; I remember on earth some people telling me that I should stop being so dependent on Charlotte and I should do the things I want instead of something I thought Charlotte wanted...'

This is something he didn't expect to have. He always thought that his personality was fine, even though he was overly dependent on Charlotte. This partly makes sense since she was an anchor for him, which he managed to hold onto for many years to avoid losing himself.

That was fine, and in the context of their dependence on each other, since they were spouses, it wasn't bad. But this time, it was precisely that that prevented him from continuing.

Because of this, he tried to get to the root of the problem: What caused him to be so dependent on Charlotte?

Although he was slightly annoyed with himself, he knew that the fact that he had realized this was not at all bad. It would allow him to grow and change that problem he had.

That was why he was thoughtful and traveled back in time, trying to find the root of the problem.

He traveled back to school when Charlotte was more dependent on him, as Matt protected her from some bullies, and started his journey from there.

Crossing through graduation and the decision they made to go to study at the same university and live together, formalizing the relationship. Sometime later, they both got married.

Soon after, there came a climax in their minds, that honeymoon night for both, when it became a crucial point in their lives: The death of both their parents at the hands of the monsters.

'I see, it should be from that moment...' Matt thought, remembering that the one who collapsed the most was him after that moment.

Charlotte knew how to recover, adding that her skills and determination helped her; on Matt's side, he was too attached to his parents, and it affected him too much. Even more so because he got to fight the monsters that tore his parents apart and couldn't even do anything about it.

Still, even though he had reached a turning point in his life, he didn't know how he should repair this from himself; it was a complicated problem to deal with.

And while he was deep in thought, Alice and the rest were expelled.

The last test no one managed to pass.

When he saw that everyone was out, Robert stood up and nodded to them.

"They all tried hard. Some came out earlier; some took longer, and that's all good. Now, under the spirit, I want to quiz you, which the spirit will be able to corroborate, to find out how many minutes you lasted in each test."

"So, I'll make it quick..." he said and began calling out names one by one.

He mentioned the test number and asked for the number of minutes. After making sure he was okay with the spirit, he wrote it down in a notebook and went through all the students one by one.

Until it was Matt and Alice's turn, ending the whole class.

The professor was amazed by several things.

He looked at the list, a bit in shock.

"I will then reveal to you that reaching 30 minutes within the test was not necessary. The goal was 20 minutes, yet striving to 30 minutes was an ideal that I did not expect any of you to cross. For that, I must congratulate those who did." After this, Robert congratulated Matt and Alice, the only two with '30 minutes' endured in any of the tests.

"Aelia Varrmar. In the first test it was 20 minutes, in the second unfortunately she didn't make it. In the third, she managed 30 minutes, and in the fourth, she came close. You are the second-best student this time; you are not too far away from being able to summon your first spirit."

"Zen Varrmar. First test, 30 minutes. Second test, 30 minutes. Third test, 30 minutes. Although in the fourth test, you did not achieve the desired result, it is the first time someone achieved such good results in their first time. I am speechless.

Also, you two were the only ones to complete 2 tests or more in the whole class. You're in the lead for now; keep up the effort, and I'm sure you'll be able to summon your first spirit before long."

Robert was already ingratiating himself with Matt and Alice. The fact that they have such good results was amazing and something to be commended.

Even though the fourth test Matt only managed to last 10 minutes, it was still amazing.

For the vast majority of students, they needed to improve in all aspects, while Matt only needed to improve in one, as he did perfectly in the other.

The teacher had high expectations, so he congratulated Matt several times before giving them several teachings and advances about what they should do from tomorrow. From today on, these classes will be repeated until they can summon their first spirit.

After that, the teacher dismissed them, sending them to their respective rooms.
