Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!

Matt was confused by his words.

"You mean those people who guard the Philosopher's Stone, they're enemies of Gray Allen?" Matt asked, and Reagan nodded.

"It is public knowledge that the Central City of the World is an enemy of Gray Allen and Clan Allen in general. Though no one knows the motives." Reagan Cooper thought Matt might know this, but he didn't expect him not to. That's why his answer came with airs of evidence and his tone of voice of obviousness.

Matt nodded at his response.

'It would be good to try to make friends with Gray Allen; he seems to be a person with good guts.' He thought.

But there was a problem. If the Philosopher's Stone was in the hands of Gray's enemies, it meant that getting his hands on it would be tricky.

'Looks like I'll have to be out there without using the Vampire Mark unless it's an emergency... Well, it's not like it's anything too serious, either. I heard that what the Vampire Mark does is increase power by 20%. That's already done by my Saint Sword...

Although I guess it has other peculiarities that I'll notice when I use it, it's the most famous ability in the world for a reason.' Matt thought.

The Vampire Mark was a 'basic' skill around his explanation. You didn't have to go too deep to know what it does, but being a core skill, it's one of those skills that has things much more amazing than the rest.

It may well be the most amazing ability in the entire vampire race, but until Matt tests it, he can't say for sure.

While his Blood Transformation ability…

He wouldn't mind taking it out of his body. He can use it again or give it to someone else when it's turned to stone.

But it is not a bad ability and more so because it was created by him.

He doesn't know exactly what percentage of power this ability can raise when he uses it, but he's sure it's more than 20%. Even so, it requires blood to activate, and if Matt's victims don't have blood, it will use Matt's blood.

Being a Berserker-style ability, which causes him to lose much of his rationality, he doesn't feel it's an overly reliable ability.

The time he used it was because he had just created it, and it was used indirectly, but despite the large amount of blood from victims nearby, the ability still managed to take a large percentage of Matt's blood, to the point of rendering him unconscious and almost killing him.

That's why it was not a reliable ability. At least as long as he had no way to control it.

That's why it was a skill he could discard unless he got a better option.

As Matt thought about this transformation-type skill he had created, he remembered Dietrich's Transformation skill.

Honestly, he hadn't forgotten it. Every so often, he would try to use it, but each time, he failed.

Ever since he discovered how amazing the Dietrich was, the urge to use that ability had increased.

It was possibly one of the most powerful Transformations he would ever see, so he was eager to try it.

But for now, he couldn't do that. It was still a powerful enough ability to make his enhanced power unable to activate it. But that only made him more eager to try it, so he looked forward to the time when he could.

Reagan Cooper sighed when he saw that Matt didn't plan to talk about it any further. "Kid, you shouldn't go to Central City just yet. Right now, I'm sure when you're 30 years old, you'll shock the world again, showing power so absurd that it will be unmatched among your own generation. By that time you can think about going there.

Believe me when I tell you that it would not be fear not to go; it is caution towards very powerful people." He spoke. He thought Matt might be thinking of a plan to go.

Now, he knew him a little better and knew how daring he could be.

"You had the guts to go to the Nevod Mountains of the human territory. To humans, the Nevod Mountains are like the Central City to us. But you must never think that the might of the Nevod Mountains is comparable to the might of the Central City. The Central City is not as simple as many people think. Therefore, do not make plans to go there. You will die if you do so with your current strength."

His words made Matt hold them in his heart. What he was being told was quite astounding. What was in the Central City that was so frightening to the higher-ups of one of the Five Realms of the Vampire World? He wanted to know, but he didn't ask him.

He simply nodded.

"That's all right, Professor Reagan. I'll keep that in mind." He replied, and Reagan Cooper smiled.

"You can come back. Now that you're back, get ready to go to the First Academy. Although most teachers have been trying to change the rules lately to stop Isla from going, now that you're here I think things will work out, so I'll arrange a meeting and call you when I'm ready.

However, if you don't want to settle it with sheer force, you can ask Alice to give you an invitation to the First Academy Students Graduation. With it, you'll be able to get rid of all those stupid teachers." He replied, and Matt nodded to him.

Afterwards, Matt and Isla left the office.

Reagan Cooper stared at the ceiling, and a long sigh came out of his mouth.

He looked at the table and noticed that the tea he was drinking was still there. "I'd better drink it and relax before it gets cold." He said but didn't raise his hand to grab the tea.

Still, something strange happened when, before his gaze, the glass began to move toward him and reached his mouth as if an invisible hand was grasping it. This invisible hand was actually Reagan Cooper's vampiric power. And he took the tea and gently closed his eyes to relax.

'This is quite convenient. Early Understanding, eh.' He thought as he relaxed in his seat.
