Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!

Chapter 35: A night visit

Matt and Isla returned to their respective rooms to get ready as soon as classes were over.

Many were worried about what was going on, except Matt.

He was smiling this time.

It's not every day that he gets the chance to fight devourers, so he should take advantage of it when he gets it. Those guys are so strong that they always give him a good fight, drastically increasing his power.

Thanks to the training he was having these days, Matt could understand his vampirism more and more and how vampires become strong.

Based on this training, he has realized that blood does not make him strong; it is simply a source of energy for his body and vampirism to process. Once processed, it is converted into power. But, depending on the intensity and difficulty of the training, the body and vampirism can take more or less time to process the consumed blood.

This is a good thing because if, before he goes to fight in a battle like this, he consumes blood, he will be able to get stronger during the fight and give a great surprise at a moment's notice. Though, of course, this is just a theory of his, and he doesn't know if it's real, but it's worth considering.

'I'll try it this time.' He thought, smiling and looking at the sky.

It was an unconscious movement, and he expected to see a glow, but what he saw was night.

'Tsk, this world makes me lose what time of day I'm in. I don't even know how long it's been since my reincarnation anymore; how am I supposed to measure the number of days I've been here if I can't even tell when it's daytime?' He thought in frustration.

In the end, he sighed and began to sort through the things he needed until dusk, which could very well be dawn, as the weather didn't change and the stars were still there, though certainly, the moon was moving and no longer visible.

'Hmm, maybe they use the moon to measure days.' Matt thought and stopped worrying about nonsense.

Just as he was planning to go training, someone knocked on his door.

'Could it be Isla?' He thought and went out, though he was surprised to see Alice standing there.

"Alice? What are you doing here?" he asked in shock. He thought she would be busy at the first academy.

She smiled and raised her hand, handing him a training stick.

"This is it?" he asked.

"Let's train. I want to see how strong you've become." She said, answering almost none of his questions.

Matt was confused to see her like this, but a few seconds later, he understood that she was worried about him, and that's why she came all the way here. That's why he smiled at her.

"Well, it's been a while since we trained together. I want to see how strong I've become." Matt said, smiling, and grabbed the stick she was giving him.

They both walked towards the training room and stood facing each other.

"I hope you don't disappoint me, Matt." She said with a slightly mischievous smile and ran full speed towards him, appearing in a second before him.

She threw a powerful punch towards his shoulder, but Matt quickly defended, and a slight popping sound came from the sticks as the vampiric power of the two slammed into each other.

The impact pushed Matt back, but he quickly composed himself and lunged at Alice, striking hard and accurately toward her right shoulder. Even so, she quickly moved the weapon in her hand and managed to defend herself.

At the same time, she launched a vicious counterattack with her leg towards Matt's stomach, from which he had to defend himself with a blow from his fist.

Still, Alice's strength completely overcame him, so he was sent back several meters.

Alice took advantage of the moment to quickly appear before him and struck him in the shoulder. Even so, Matt drastically increased his weight with his vampiric power so he was not sent flying backward, and he took advantage of the moment to hold Alice's weapon and struck her with his fist in the shoulder.

She didn't expect that counterattack, so she rolled several meters backward.

Matt took advantage of the moment to recompose himself and jumped into the air, trying to fall on top of her to hit her, but she quickly dodged the attack and ended up hitting the floor, destroying it with a punch.

'He has become powerful...' Alice thought with happiness.

Still, she didn't want him to think that she couldn't beat him. She couldn't allow him to become arrogant right now that he would fight devourers, so once she dodged one of Matt's attacks, she unleashed all her power all at once.

A pressure of powerful energy girded over Matt's heart, just as it had been the first time he had seen Alice's full power unleashed.

Alice's eyes glowed with intensity, and she launched a powerful blow towards Matt's shoulder.

That blow was meant to stop him from becoming arrogant, even when he knows he can win.

*BOM*

A slight explosion occurred then, followed by a thud of something breaking.

Alice was shocked after seeing what happened.

"I didn't expect you to be able to defend yourself so well..." She said in shock after seeing that Matt had defended an attack of such magnitude. Although the stick in his hand broke and he still received damage to his shoulder, it wasn't the damage he should have received.

She felt stunned, but for some reason, she felt happy.

She was happy at how strong he had become.

"Matt, that's great!" She said, smiling. Then he saw him stagger back, so she quickly walked over and held him in her arms.

He smiled back at her but with difficulty.

"That was a big blow, Alice. And don't worry so much about me, I'll be fine. You should be calm at the first academy and wait for my admission." He said, smiling, and she nodded at him.

"I can't help but worry about you when I know you're going to fight such cunning and powerful devourers. But, now that I see your power, it seems you didn't need me to worry about you." She said, smiling, and allowed him to rest in her lap for a long while.

She didn't know why, but Matt had a big smile on his face right now.
