Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!

Chapter 271: Attack outside the city

Matt looked behind him and sighed softly.

Taking advantage of Alice's carelessness, he slipped away from there to walk alone for a while.

As an introvert, he always looked for a way to walk alone for a while when he was on Earth. Sometimes, he just needed a few hours to consider his next steps.

Maybe he was trying to find himself in those moments, and this time, it is the same.

He doesn't feel like he did anything good, but he can't repay the kindness and love Alice is trying to give him with a bad attitude or ungratefulness. That is why it was better for him to find himself before facing her again.

That was why he walked along a long, lonely road, where occasionally, one or two people passed by until he reached the end of the city, leaving it to enjoy the atmosphere a little.

During that time, his mind was in chaos, trying to find answers to his questions.

But he couldn't come up with an answer, no matter how hard he thought. That was annoying, but there was nothing he could do.

He had been walking for more than four hours between thoughts and memories of the past. The sky didn't change much, as it was still dark, but Matt realized he had gotten lost in his thoughts and sighed.

'In the end, I think it would be best to go back and keep trying.' He thought to himself, turning around to head back to the city.

He had walked quite far from this one, but he would get there quickly.

Still, when he turned around, he frowned and looked back.

The street was lonely, and no figure was in sight, but a few people were nearby.

"If I'm the target, they don't need to look for an opening. Just attack at once; anyway, you won't be able to do anything." Matt spoke and launched a magic attack towards some nearby trees.

But then a different attack hit Matt's magic, and both magics were countered.

At the same time, several people appeared from all sides. Some carried swords, and some were mages.

But they all wore similar garb, which made Matt look at them in surprise.

"Low Deal." Matt recognized it, naturally. It was the vestment that belonged to that strange organization.

One of them stood out and looked at him.

"I feel the presence of several of our items on you. You seem like you're not someone normal, but messing with us is a grave mistake." He said as he pulled out a spear lit on fire.

His arrogant demeanor and haughty words slightly annoyed Matt, but he said nothing.

Instead, he pulled out the items he had and showed them.

"Oh, you mean these?" he asked.

The eyes of those around him glittered with greed.

"So it's true that you have several!"

"You bastard, how did you get them!?" The one who had spoken before asked, holding back the urge to move. If it weren't because he needed to keep up appearances in front of his subordinates, he would have already jumped up and taken the items from the 'kid' in front of him.

But appearances were necessary.

Matt sighed. "If you're going to attack for your greed, why ask unnecessary questions? One I got by assassinating a vampire. The other I got by exterminating a branch of your organization, and the other was by assassinating a self-styled 'Genius Mage.' Are you happy now? I hope you are because these are your last seconds to live." Matt said mockingly.

He suddenly disappeared from where he was and appeared behind the guy he had been talking to.

It was a swift movement that no one could follow. At the same time, strange claws had grown on his hand, easily torn off this guy's neck.

It was so fast that when everyone reacted, their leader was already on the ground, and the head was rolling.

"ATTACK, THE LEADER IS DEAD!" A loud shout came from the second leader, and everyone immediately began to launch magical attacks.

'No necromancer...' Matt grumbled internally after seeing this. He thought he could collect a few corpses, and so he gave them time, but this was just pitiful.

That was why he stopped wasting time. His body disappeared from where it was, once and then a second and third time.

Each time it disappeared, a head flew off, and a body fell to the ground.

And in a moment, only one enemy was left, full of fear, crawling on the ground. But his executioner was bored and wanted to return to the city, so he didn't even have time to beg.

In the end, 15 bodies were decapitated by strange vampire claws.

Matt looked at his hands in surprise. 'These claws are really powerful. They are as hard as a sword, and although they don't compare to my saint sword, being part of my body, I can use them in a more versatile way.' He thought.

He had just discovered that he could use Vampiric Claws a moment ago, just before attacking. He didn't understand why he got that information now, considering he hadn't yet surpassed 30,000 power, which is when they were unlocked. But not bad at all.

Still, he could quickly tell that these claws greatly increased the vampiric instinct within him. And this was a little strange. It was a feral instinct.

In the face of certain death, his instincts would not move his body to flee from danger as humans do but would move it to meet danger with savagery.

It was a totally different instinct from the humans and also a little more difficult to control.

'...Honestly, I still don't understand vampires. But I feel like there's common knowledge that no one tells them because it's basic, and I can't figure it out because my memories in this body are foggy.'' Matt thought, frowning.

Suddenly, something occurred to him. If what happened yesterday with Alice was because of the activation of his vampiric instincts, does it mean that vampiric instincts are not only wild in killing but in other matters? When his mind thought like this, he felt like trying it out.

Perhaps this was the way to go to lighten the weight on his mind.

Therefore, he ran back to the city.

He did not realize that near him, there was a figure watching him.

Her eyes sparkled at what she had just seen while her glasses glittered in the moonlight.

At the same time, a small spirit floated above her and fell on her shoulder, totally exhausted.

"Haah... He... He... He's dangerous... I can hardly hide her presence, Madam..." A soft voice reached the ears of the woman standing there, watching Matt leave. The speaker was one of her spirits, who had the ability of Concealment.

But that spirit was quite exhausted at the moment. It had had a hard time hiding this woman from Matt, as his senses were constantly prowling the surroundings.

This woman nodded unconsciously. 'Such a young and powerful vampire... And on top of that, he has so much guts to come here, To the Nevod Mountains!' she thought, smiling mischievously and disappearing into the dim light of the night.
