Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!

Chapter 109: He stole something from him

On the outskirts of Blood Dawn City, several people were gathered in the nearby woods.

"Did you manage to warn your brothers in time?" a hooded man asked as he looked at the man behind him.

He nodded to him.

"Yes, sir. There was no trouble at all. Still, I missed the target." He replied, and the man nodded.

"How?" Asked the hooded man once again after he had been thinking for a few seconds.

"...I don't know. Honestly, I'm still figuring out what the hell that guy did, but he disappeared in a moment." He replied.

"Oh, it looks like this guy is even more capable than I've seen." the hooded man said and turned around.

"Get together with your brothers and go back to that place. We will arrange for someone to take over the position you were occupying. For now, keep quiet and do nothing." The man said, and he left with several others.

Philip Baker was left alone in the woods and sighed.

"Tsk, that bastard was sneaky. I really got careless. It's a good thing I wasn't stripped of my membership status." he said plaintively and reached into his pants pocket, looking for something.

But a terrifying chill went down his spine as soon as he did.

What he was looking for was missing.

He quickly went through every pocket of his clothes and entered a slight crisis.

'What the hell? How could it be gone!?' He thought to himself in shock.

'Shit, I always knew that having a thing that can't be stored in a ring was a big deal!' he complained as he couldn't find his organization member token.

He soon decided to relax.

'That doesn't have anything of value. Maybe just the location of the headquarters, but it's encrypted. No one besides the members can break it. ' He thought and sighed.

'Maybe I dropped it when I attacked that bastard. I'll have to go back to the city.' He thought and sighed; soon after, he disappeared into the nearby trees, leaving all this in a profound silence.

...

A few days later, Matt finally woke up.

The headache persisted, and his body ached slightly as well, but right now, he could stand it, and it was no time to sleep.

As soon as he got up, he checked Isla and noticed that she was recovering at a faster rate than last time, even though this time she was almost on the verge of death.

'My God, is Dietrich's blood that good?' He thought in shock. Perhaps he had been underestimating it lately.

For some reason, he thought his blood was no good and that only his vampirism was unique, but now it seemed his blood also had some unique quirks.

Knowing that made him sigh, for Isla was out of danger, though she was still unconscious.

Matt then grabbed a small piece of paper and wrote some things on it. He called his messenger bird, which arrived shortly after and sent a message to Alice.

'She must know I'm okay.' He thought. He then turned his mind away from those thoughts.

Instead, he focused on something more important right now.

His Icy Curse.

'It has become more powerful and it seems that the abilities too... Still, on earth, it wasn't possible to break my Frozen Time if you didn't use a powerful ability...' Matt thought and frowned.

He was remembering the past.

Frozen Time is an ability that gets stronger over time. Right now, it's supposed to be able to freeze time for as little as 2 seconds.

But, as it gets stronger, that time would increase infinitely.

When he was on Earth, Matt thought that if he got strong enough, he might be able to freeze the time of an entire world. But he was never able to confirm that theory. Mostly because time is too complicated a subject to understand.

Still, if there was one thing happening on earth, it was that his Frozen Time was a supreme ability, being one of the most powerful to his credit and the most feared.

But here...

The first time, he used it, and it could already be countered with pure power.

'Maybe it has something to do with the laws of the world...' He thought and considered a few things regarding his ability.

While thinking like that, he realized that, perhaps, even a supreme ability like that could be improved. He just needed to find the point where it failed to do so.

So soon, his thoughts were filled with countless theories about his own power, though in the end, he sighed helplessness.

'Forget it. There's no use thinking about it right now. I don't like absurd headaches that force me to disconnect from the world.' He thought, sighing.

Just then, he heard some words outside the door and sighed.

'...I hope Alice arrives as soon as possible and rents this room.' Matt thought as he heard a person enter the adjoining rooms.

Still, no one was coming to this room, so he was relieved.

He had entered this place without paying and spent several days sleeping; he was lucky that no one came to clean this room. But now people seemed to be coming to this hotel, so he might be discovered soon.

Still, he was sure that not right now, so he decided to look at the next thing on his mind.

'I managed to steal something from that bastard before I ran here, but this thing can't be stored; what the hell is it?' He thought as he pulled his hand out of his pocket.

'A token from that organization?' He thought, frowning.

He was sure the other tokens he had from that organization could be stored in the ring.

'If it can't be stored, it means there's something special about this... Its weight... It's much lighter than the other one; the material seems to be more refined, too... But that shouldn't be.' He thought and sat down on a small table to investigate it.

He sensed that there was something strange.

First, he hit it with ice to see if it would react. But seeing that it did nothing, he began a thorough investigation.
