Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!

Chapter 349: Wife and Husband, face to face (2)

*

Matt frowned slightly, staring at her.

Naturally, he could understand why she was doing it. But it was a request that could cause him some pain.

But he sighed and said nothing.

Along with his sigh, a connection of souls suddenly broke, causing Matt's inner body to be slightly wounded. Blood came out of his mouth at the same time blood came out of Charlotte's mouth.

He didn't even last a second to break it, which surprised Charlotte.

She hadn't expected him to break it so easily. Suddenly, the whole plan she had in mind to convince him fell apart, and joy welled up in her.

Her heart pounded as she realized...

Her Matthew had changed.

Matt smiled at her, seeing her like that. "I always knew that was the last tie in my soul toward my dependence on you. I'm honestly not against cutting it off. After all, I decided to live this life my way and according to the path I want to and should walk."

Charlotte stared at him for a moment, unsure what to say, but Matt spoke again.

"Besides, cutting it off would mean it would take longer to find you, something I didn't agree with. After all, that connection was just something we did on a whim, on one of our last nights together." After saying this, he smiled, remembering the past.

He didn't need to have the past because one of the requirements for growing up is letting go of the past and wanting to walk forward. But that didn't mean he couldn't remember them, like what it meant.

And Charlotte was finally able to speak when he said that.

"That soul connection only united our conviction to meet even if we were to die against the Ice Emperor. No matter where we went, heaven or hell, our souls would be etched with a seal imposed on that night, so we would meet again." She said, and Matt then raised both arms towards her.

Stay tuned to ???

"It only united the desire to stay together of a married couple struggling to survive in a chaotic world. And in the end, our ultimate connection fulfilled the reason it was created, don't you think?" he asked, and she disappeared from where she was and appeared, hugging him.

"Our deepest connection will always be etched in the history of a world and in the essence of our souls." She whispered, and Matt continued with that little saying they had.

"In the essence of souls that yearn for survival and the... Extermination of enemies. That connection will not be erased, even if we were to be reborn in different people and with erased memories." Although at that time they made that oath, they never thought that they would actually travel to another world in which they would meet once again.

When they made that oath, neither Matt nor Charlotte expected to be betrayed by those they called friends, but somehow, it remained an oath even when they both arrived in a new world.

And those dormant feelings they had for over 35 years hadn't died, hadn't even weakened. They were as strong as the first time they said it, which showed the intense love they both had for each other.

The severing of that last connection did not affect the mind, memories, or feelings in any way. It only showed that they had completed the oath behind that connection and no longer needed it.

They both knew it, even without saying it. So they both looked at each other and smiled softly, their breaths colliding, feeling each other's scent once again.

Unconsciously, they both moved to kiss, in a soft kiss that appeared innocent. It looked like that first kiss they gave each other many years ago, when they were both not even of age and thinking of having a future, studying together in college.

This little kiss brought back countless memories of the past and was like fuel to an unquenchable flame that ignited it several times more powerful than it already was.

They both pulled apart a little then.

And Charlotte had to speak.

"I like that new girl you got yourself; even though being around her makes me want to kill her, her determination to stand up to me, even though she knew I far outclassed her, reminded me of my past self. So you must continue to grow stronger with her." She said suddenly, startling Matt.

He didn't know how to broach that subject, but since she brought it up, he had to speak up.

"Her name is Alice Allen. When I first came to this place, she saved me. We've been traveling together ever since." He replied, and Charlotte nodded.

"Alice, uh. I remember you were thinking of naming our daughter that if we ever had one." she said suddenly, surprising Matt.

He had forgotten that, but now that she said it, he realized that it was, in fact, the case.

Among the names he liked best for his daughter, after 'Charlotte', was the name 'Alice'.

That made him smile with embarrassment. He didn't think he'd ever get to have an Alice in his life, that she wouldn't be a daughter, but rather...

"But now, from being your daughter, you seem to want her as a woman." Charlotte said, glaring at him.

Matt returned her gaze but didn't deny it. Instead, he sighed.

"Well, a lot of things have happened, and I decided to live differently. Besides, there are things I simply can't control, nor do I want to," Matt replied firmly. He had no need to embellish the situation because he knew Charlotte was joking with him.

She smiled after hearing him say that. "As long as you want to walk your own path, I will support you. I don't like other girls hugging you, though, so I hope you won't leave them with me alone because something bad might happen." She replied and turned around to stand with her back to him.

Although they both had a lot to say to each other, they knew they were in a complicated situation right now, so she needed to get to the point.

"Matt, I'm going to exterminate the human race." She said suddenly, changing the subject of the conversation drastically.

Matt stared at her and frowned. "That's my plan; the human race will not continue to live in a world where I live."

"Even if I'm human too?" she asked.
