Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!

Chapter 279: Problems at the Welcome Ceremony (1)

The Webb brothers were amazed by what 'Aelia' did. They wore white suits, but she still dared to throw that glass of wine on the floor near them.

They didn't care if she had thrown it because of them; what mattered was that it had stained them!

The expensive suit that bore the logo of the Alignment had been stained!

It was a great insult to them, and they looked at her fiercely.

"How dare you!? Do you know how expensive these suits are? Never in your dreams could you afford them!"

"We only came here as a courtesy to treat you to a few glasses of wine and dancing, it being a great honor for you. But this is how you repay us? You don't seem to understand how status works within the Academy!"

They then became furious and raised their hands, trying to grab 'Aelia' by the arms. Their hands were wrapped in mana, so besides grabbing her, they wanted to give her a solid blow to paralyze her at once. The few people who noticed this were amazed by Aelia's guts.

But suddenly, just before they could touch her, a figure appeared in front of her. With one hand, it held both arms, coming towards Alice. It was a swift move, and the two couldn't even react as they felt the mana in their bodies slam against them, and they lost strength. Read today on m,v,l,e,mpyr

Then Matt pushed them backward, so they both fell rolling on the ground in a moment.

At that very moment, Matt moved his hand and embraced Alice around her waist, pulling her closer to him in a moment. At the same time, his whole body went on high alert, which was reflected in his eyes, which, although looking at a single point, seemed to have a complete barrier around Alice.

Such a sudden movement naturally attracted everyone's attention and more so when they realized that the people on the ground were no small thing.

"The Webb brothers..."

"That guy dared to hit them... Is he crazy?"

"Does he want to die? He's totally crazy!"

"Looks like the fame and accolades went to his head..."

As with every occasion, people tend to form their own conclusions about what is happening and what could happen. Besides, in the human race, it is common for everyone to criticize without knowing anything, so that is precisely what many mumblers did.

Because of the timing, this attracted the attention of the entire room.

Still, Matt didn't care.

He knew these two guys had a high status and several powerful people were nearby, so protecting Alice was his default decision.

He glared at them fiercely.

"Aelia already told you that she doesn't want to dance with you guys. Are you idiots, or don't you understand when a person talks to you? Look at you wanting to grab her to immobilize her in my presence; it looks like you guys are stupid."

They both raised their heads sharply in anger. Due to the shove, they did not expect to receive, they both felt sore, which made them even angrier.

"How dare you!?"

"It seems that there really is no respect among the new generation of this Academy anymore!"

Both shouted, angry, and stood up abruptly.

"Shit, since you think you're so powerful, accept our challenge!"

"Teachers, as Senior Disciples, we demand that we be given the opportunity to challenge a new Student! It is necessary for his future!" After shouting this, they both threw their Spiritual Alignment member badges, showing that they meant business.

That shocked everyone who heard it, and some powerful people came out to see what was happening.

Alice was a little surprised and clenched her body as she felt the power of the other people rushing over.

Matt noticed them, too. They were the Alignment members on the Founder's level or maybe even above in power. Two of the three present came over to see what was happening.

"Matt... Isn't it dangerous? Those people are powerful. We can't beat them even if we fight between the two of us. They're elite here." She said softly.

Matt noticed that Alice got a little scared and tensed up, so he smiled and stroked her waist a little, while looking at her out of the corner of his eye.

"What's the fear? I just need to make these idiots understand that there is no one who should mess with you unless they want trouble. Don't worry; according to the rules, what they ask for is allowed. But the rules don't specify that we should only fight spirits." Matt replied, grinning mischievously.

He was actually annoyed. Lately, he's noticed that every time someone tries to approach Alice with other intentions, his anger flares, and he feels the desire to kill them. Naturally, though, he restrains himself.

But this time, although he will not kill them, he needs to teach them a lesson. First, because he is in front of many people, they all stop thinking about touching Alice. Second, there are powerful people, and this is the time to show that he is someone powerful, within the limits they think they can control.

That way, he might have a chance of getting into the Alignment, which is his ultimate goal, although he doesn't know if he can make it.

Alice was stunned that Matt would act this way to protect her. Although she could see that Matt had other intentions, much of it was to protect her, which was important to her. Somehow, this felt good to her and even a little unrealistic.

'...Though his intentions with me are not what I would want.' She thought with slight frustration.

"What's going on?" one of the two leaders asked as soon as he arrived, focusing his attention on the testimony of the two Alignment members.

"Sir, we politely approached to chat with this woman, but she still broke a glass on our feet and stained our robes bearing the Alignment insignia. And then this man jumped in and shoved us, catching us totally off guard! We want a duel against both of them!"

Both Webb brothers were very well in sync, as they both said the exact same thing. It was so much so that everyone had to believe that version of events, but the leaders still looked at Matt and Alice.

"Has there been any change in the way you guys saw it?" the same man asked, and Matt smiled.

'Good teachers, so far.' He thought.
