Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!

Chapter 131: Behind the scenes movements

The following day, Matt went to talk to the King and told him several things about the investigation. The King then gave him some things needed for the mission this time.

It was time to go to the City of Clans.

The time to put an end to this little cycle of his life, where a strange organization was targeting him, or at least that was his intention.

Allowing that organization to continue using him as a target was not good, so it was better to seek to end the soon.

After talking to the King and mentioning several things, Matt, Isla, and Alice left the Royal Palace. Everything was ready to start.

.

While Matt was leaving the Capital City, the King watched him from the top of the Royal Palace.

Ericson Lewis was at his side.

"Brother, is the decision to grant a young man like him that status okay? I understand that you want to look for someone who can complete that mission since it's been bothering us a lot lately, but don't you think a Bloody Vampire General is too powerful? You even awarded him an extra star; that's unprecedented," Ericson Lewis said, expressing his doubts.

Dawid Lewis smiled as he heard him say this.

"Ericson, as the years go by, you still can't seem to look at what our master looked at." He said, with a slight sigh and looked at Ericson.

"Tell me, do you know why Matt is Miss Alice's subordinate?" asked Dawid.

His question stunned Ericson a little, but he shook his head after thinking about it momentarily.

"The Allens have shut down all information regarding Matthew Dietrich; we don't have that information."

Dawid nodded at his answer, "That's right. That means Matthew is special. Now, do you remember the time we went to tell Lord Gray that I would give him my daughter as Miss Alice's subordinate?"

Ericson nodded.

"I remember, he declined that time. I keep asking myself why. It doesn't make sense. My niece is so much more powerful than Miss Alice. Isn't it in his best interest to have her as a subordinate? Besides, that would mean they could have greater control of the next generation of Kings, should my niece ascend to the throne."

At the time, Ericson was deeply confused by the fact that Gray Allen had refused that request. After all, who wouldn't want to have someone so powerful under them?

While it was true that they were stronger than the Kingdom, that didn't mean they could ignore them.

Still, Dawid could understand everything that time, so he smiled.

"The answer is simple: he didn't consider her worthy of being a subordinate to Miss Alice." Dawid replied.

"Impossible, how could she be unworthy? My niece is several times more powerful than Miss Alice, and she is only to be subordinate; how could she be unworthy? Miss Alice is not even the most talented of the Heirs and even Sophia Murphy would want the niece as a subordinate." Ericson replied in surprise, and Dawid smiled.

"To Gray Allen, Miss Alice is the most worthy of the Heiresses. Perhaps it is because she is his daughter, and he loves her above all else, or perhaps he sees something else that we do not. Remember, his way of doing things is not the same as everyone else's; he always does things strangely and differently."

"He would consider many things before he would allow someone to be subordinate to Miss. That's why it's strange to me: What did he see in Matthew? Not only is he weak and young, but he is also a man. If Lord Gray allowed him to be close to Miss, maybe it means that he also allowed that, in the future, the two of them will become a couple. Isn't it strange? Coming from that man."

Dawid's words made Ericson mute, and he began to think of several things.

It was then that he realized, once again, that his brother was still seeing more broadly than he was.

'No wonder he is the King.' He thought.

And Dawid smiled to see him so thoughtful, "I saw some things in him, too. I may not have the skills of our master, but at least there are some things I can see. This boy is not as simple as you think, and while I can't understand the exact reasons for that feeling, at the very least, I am sure that Lord Gray will not be easily mistaken.

If he bet, then let me bet, too." He replied and turned around while laughing.

"Haha, brother, hurry back to Clan City. Remember the mission." He said, waving goodbye there.

.

At the city wall, a beautiful female figure in an army costume of very high rank was looking at the carriage where Matthew was departing.

Her long crimson-red hair waved in the wind, making her look more beautiful than usual.

'Matthew Dietrich, you are good. But I think you will soon be shown that you are not worthy of that title. My father will regret it then. I hope to see you next time to tell you this to your face.' Thought the princess of the kingdom as she looked at him from afar.

Only she knew the importance of this rank in her life. But her father still gave it to someone else.

Despite all her efforts, she could not enter her father's gaze to obtain such a rank.

That bothered her, and her pride prevented her from even going to see him. So, when the King summoned her to the palace, she simply turned around and went to do her duty in the army or to 'play', as she is wont to say.

...

Far away from the Capital of the Kingdom, in the Main City of the Allen Clan.

Gray Allen was looking at several documents today in the largest mansion in the city, which belongs to the exalted Clan Allen.

They were about Matthew.

'Hm, as I suspected. There is no Dietrich family even on the other side of the mountains...' He thought, and his body trembled slightly.

As he read the documents that came to him a few days ago, his body became increasingly excited.

'That blood in his body... That feeling... I think we really have stumbled upon a walking treasure.' The excitement on his face was so evident that anyone could see it.

All this time, he has been doing a lot of research on Matt. From the time he first saw him until now, he always felt he was special.

When he learned that it was a person with the surname Dietrich, he immediately called his allies on the other side of the mountains to have that surname investigated.

But he found nothing.

There was no one with that surname on that side.

So, who is Matthew?

'He came out of a scary place like that... No matter what, he can't be normal. Besides, that weird icy power he has, since when do vampires have those kinds of powers? He can't be normal.' he repeated himself.

His mind was thinking many things, and he had some incredible theories, but what was certain was that no matter what, this person had to be attached to his family.

'We must protect him.' He thought and looked up when he felt someone approaching.

One of his men soon burst open the door.

"Sir, news from the Royal Capital." He said, and Gray Allen nodded.

"Did you find out what they went there to do?" he asked, and the man nodded.

"That's right, sir. I saw it with my own eyes. The King granted the status of 1 Star Bloody Vampire General to Matthew Dietrich; the Miss was the one who pushed him to grant it to him." He replied, causing Gray Allen to frown.
