Chapter 269: Vampiric nature?
Matt was a little surprised by several things at this instant. For a brief moment, he felt a soft sensation on his leg before she passed out, and his leg was between Alice's legs.
'She...' Matt sighed after realizing this.
He didn't want to think anything else. Alice had passed out in his arms, and that was the reality.
So he got up and held her in his arms to carry her into the room, but before he got out of the bath, he noticed that she had blood stains all over her body, even numerous wounds on her skin and flesh that needed to be washed properly.
That was why he sat her down in the corner of the bathtub, removed the last piece of clothing she was wearing, which also had blood on it, and began to wash her slowly.
He carefully cleaned her from top to bottom without any ulterior motive. Despite being aroused by everything that had happened, he was someone who knew how to restrain himself, and although at one point he lost control, seeing Alice in that state made him able to restrain himself.
Matt even washed her private parts. After that, he dressed her in the clothes they had prepared beforehand and took her to her room. There, he laid her down and let her rest.
He went and washed himself. After that, he went to the balcony of this Tower Room and looked at the night sky.
He needed to relax and calm down.
His action today surprised him, as holding back is easy for him. Being a controller of an Icy Power had influenced him, and control was part of him. But a moment ago, he couldn't do it.
'All my instincts were activated at that moment... Why? Was it a reaction from the technique we used to train?'
If he had considered it carefully, he would have realized that his vampire nature is a bit like an animal's; it's more raw and decisive, without as many secondary thoughts regarding consequences. That, mixed with how beautiful Alice was, would naturally result in him being unable to control himself.
'Sigh... Forget it.' He soon stopped thinking about it. He relaxed for a long while longer and then went to sleep.
.
The next morning.
Alice woke up slightly disoriented, looking sideways with doubt on her face. For a brief moment, she couldn't remember why she was there, but suddenly, she remembered what had happened the night before, which made her face turn red with embarrassment.
'Ahh... What did I do?' she thought with embarrassment. Still, soon, something crossed her mind that made her feel more embarrassed.
When she was semi-conscious, she felt Matt washing her all over. He did it very carefully so as not to hurt her and cleaned every single wound she had. It was that which made her fall totally unconscious, for it felt pleasurable.
Alice felt her face burning, but she remembered something. A place where Matt had washed her.
She looked inside the sheets and moved her hand to her nether region. That place Matt had washed her carefully and without prying, or at least that's what she felt when she was semi-conscious.
'...I wouldn't have minded if you stuck something in there, Matt...' She thought suddenly, but then she noticed that that part was getting wet again and quickly pulled her hand out.
"Ah... I'm crazy..." She spoke softly with embarrassment and blushed again.
Just then, the door to her room opened cautiously, so she panicked and hid under the covers.
"Matt..." She said with great embarrassment.
Matt nodded to her. "I'm glad you're okay." He said and walked over carrying breakfast for her. She felt deeply ashamed that she had done so many things, but it also felt extremely good that Matt received her like this despite her actions.
She didn't even know how to approach Matt or what face to see him with, but since he didn't make a big deal about it, she decided not to say anything.
Maybe what happened the night before was just a wet dream of hers, after all.
...
After a leisurely breakfast, they both went out to the classroom. Well, more specifically, to the courtyard where the 'tests' were taking place.
Professor Robert greeted them with a beaming smile that day.
"Everyone, sit down. Before we begin, I have one thing to announce."
"In four days, there will be the Welcome Ceremony for the new students, that is, for you. There will be students from the Internal Academy and also the 2 New Alignment Members. Both of them are famous in the Academy; I am sure many of you already know them. So you should prepare yourselves. Gathering contacts may be good for you in the future."
His words surprised the students. Although they expected that the Welcoming Ceremony would happen soon and have Internal students, none of them expected that the two most famous people in the Internal Academy would also go.
Those two are brothers; although they study together, they are not the same age. And they are the most powerful Summoner duo in recent years.
"Hey, I heard that sometimes the siblings Webb give advice to new students, and there are rumors that they have several students as subordinates, even granting them good resources to strengthen themselves. Apparently, they are looking for people to join their Webb family."
"Looks like we can't miss that day..."
Rumors rose from one side to the other, but Matt and Alice cared little about this.
Matt wanted to know how strong these two new Alignment members were so he could know what strength he needed to get in there.
The rest was of little value to him.
And once Professor Robert said this, he mentioned a few more things regarding what they would be doing today and activated the ability of that huge spirit once again.
Because Matt had completed all of the first three tests, he was sent directly to the fourth test.
'With what happened last night, I feel looser. It's a little strange, but somehow, I think it wasn't bad for the vampiric nature. I'll just have to see how much of an impact that has on a mental level...' Matt thought as he stepped forward, starting his test.
