Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!

Chapter 343: Matthew vs Vanessa Cromwell (1)

Matt was hit by what he thought was a clone, and the blow sent him crashing into the city, knocking down several buildings and even a large building.

He was in pain after taking those full blows to his body. Although his Icy Curse was protecting his body, in the end, she drastically overpowered him, plus she was able to catch him completely off guard.

His bones ached, but a few seconds later, he was up once more. The dust that his explosion had kicked up didn't let him see Vanessa with the naked eye, but he fixed his eyes on one place in the sky. There she was.

"A time control domain, huh? Amazing, so the capabilities of these domains are so incredible. I've only seen two so far, and I didn't expect the second one I saw to have a better than amazing with the last one I saw." He spoke softly, but Vanessa heard his voice, even in the distance.

Vanessa frowned slightly after hearing this. 'Could he have noticed it so easily? Understanding time is harder than you think; how does he know my ability is to control time?'

But, even though inside she felt something was wrong, she smiled. "This is the second time I'm using my domain and, in this case, I'm doing it out of respect for your speed of increasing your power. But I'll tell you one thing.

Actually, killing you is easier than you think." She smiled then, and in the blink of an eye, a figure emerged behind Matt, punching him in the waist, wanting to snap him in half.

The attack was powerful, but at the last moment, Matt turned his body and charged hard behind him with an icy fist. His blow collided with Vanessa's spear, but he ended up losing quickly. His body flew backward, smashing through several houses and creating numerous explosions.

'Her attacks really hurt if I took them without the sword domain.' Matt sighed as he was able to get back to his feet. Part of his arm bones were a bit broken from that impact.

The situation was dangerous.

What her domain does is allow her to control time in a particular place. Or maybe it's not controlling time; it's simply sending attacks into a future that doesn't exist but is created by the domain. But that's also a way to control time.

The thing is, no matter where she is within this domain, she can attack him at different times and from anywhere, making him complicated to counter.

How can he predict an attack sent to him, in this case? She could attack him now or have attacked him a few seconds earlier. Perhaps one way to counter it was to erect a domain above it, which would affect it, although being a domain to control time, very few domains affect it.

After all, time is a Primordial Law that is always present in the universe. It never stands still, as even Domains have a preset time duration.

Still, Matt wasn't entirely out of it.

Even though it was complicated, he still had a way to counter this.

As someone with experience with things related to time, he can approximate the time she wants to attack him.

That's why he returned to the fight and landed above a house near Vanessa.

"You are quite tough and capable. Although I don't know how you countered that attack, I can tell you have an impossibly fast reaction speed—as expected from a ridiculous genius like you." She said, and Matt shrugged.

"You consider me a genius?" he asked.

"Well, at the very least, I don't think I know many people who are able to cross 20,000 power in so few months." She replied. Somehow, today, she wanted to talk a little more than usual.

Normally, she liked to wrap things up quickly, but she wanted to take her time today. Maybe she was at an overwhelming advantage, or maybe it was because she had encountered an absurd genius.

Her response made Matt smile. "Hehe, well then, I wonder what you'll think of me the moment I show you that I can counter your domain." He smiled after saying this and drew his holy sword once again.

Unfortunately, with the domain active, he could not use the 20% power granted by his saint sword when equipped, as the domain limited the upgrade to 80,000 power.

Still, it was enough for now.

Vanessa was surprised by his response and began to chuckle a little.

"Hahahaha, I think you're belittling my power and domain, vampire genius. It's not as easy to counter as you think." But even though she was laughing, she was also a bit annoyed.

"Still, since you say so, why don't you show it? My next attack will kill you, vampire genius. You don't have much time to do that," she said, scoffing a little. At that moment, she jumped at him.

Matt smiled.

"Time is something you can't play with, Human Princess. You must keep in mind that Time... It's not as absolute as you think." He smiled a little and swung his sword sharply back to stand in a fighting stance, and then his heart pounded.

"Frozen Time," he said softly, and everything around him froze—from the wind to this woman's extra-fast movements.

"If there is no time you can use, what good is your domain?" He said as he appeared in front of her, which was frozen in time and attacked her fiercely.

It was several attacks in a moment, and he appeared tens of meters behind her.

Although freezing time was not an easy feat to accomplish either, he no longer had as much trouble as he did at the beginning.

His supreme ability had been used again, but the effect did not last long enough to be appreciated.

Soon, Freeze Time was over, and all the blows delivered by Matt reached Vanessa's body.

She was shocked, and the momentum sent her flying backward, right into the position where Matt awaited her.

His attack was powerful from behind, so Vanessa's body was sent flying across the city, crashing into numerous buildings.
