Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!

Chapter 204: Attacking directly

The seconds passed as if they were hours for the man who had been smashed to the ground as he wondered what the hell had happened.

The situation was similar for the people on one side. They spent several seconds trying to assimilate the situation, and suddenly, one of the two teams stood up abruptly.

"What the hell do you think you're doing? How dare you take down one of my team members!?" shouted the group leader, attracting Matt's attention.

The latter moved in the blink of an eye once again and appeared from behind the leader of that group.

'How fast!' The leader was in shock and soon felt a small dagger squeezing his neck.

"You think you are powerful? A mere A-Rank hunter, where do you get the arrogance to yell at me? Since you didn't stand up when he was threatening me, then keep quiet if you don't want your head to roll." After saying this, Matt moved his hand to where the man he had just struck down was standing.

The dagger in his hand, which he had bought at the red market, shot out towards that guy's hand and stuck him firmly.

"AGHHHHH!" The hunter fell to the ground, holding his hand in deep pain as that slight movement shocked everyone present.

It had been so fast that few of them could follow the trajectory.

'What the hell was that? I didn't feel it was a very powerful attack; what skills does this bastard know?' The leader of the group the injured hunter belonged to was confused.

Still, he did nothing, and Matt stopped caring about this.

"If I'm making a group with you, it's because we have something in common, not because you deserve it. If you don't want to end up just like this bastard, you'd better stay out of my way." As he said that, Matt walked over to where the wounded hunter was, and after kicking him in the chest to slam him to the ground, he took the dagger from him and returned to his place.

At that moment, Alice removed her hand from the sword at her waist. She had been prepared to move at any moment.

To tell the truth, these A-Rank hunters were not particularly powerful. Although they had about 10,000 power, they couldn't compare to both, so they weren't worried about retaliation.

After that small event, the situation was quiet again for the rest of the way. Still, the tension between the teams was palpable. Matt and Alice were the most relaxed and didn't mind this too much.

Several hours later, the large group arrived near the village. It was built so that it appeared to be both a village and a large town.

Once they reached the vicinity, they took out the map and a few other things that the Guild Leader had given them.

"I think the strategy should be simple. We don't need to investigate anything else; just enter through the two back doors investigated by the Leader to kill the leaders and everyone we come across. I think that's the best way to do things since there aren't too many of them, and fighting the mages in the open field would be stupid."

"You're right. This is a quick and effective attack designed to kill the vast majority. In all, we have 17 people, and they have 20 and several weak undead vampires. I think it won't take us long."

Both leaders of the two larger groups spoke and then looked at Matt to await his confirmation.

He simply nodded, agreeing with them.

He didn't need to do or say anything else.

Then, the three groups split up by lot to see who would enter through the west and east gates.

In the end, Matt and the group of hunters he had hurt agreed to go through the east gate, and the other group would go through the west gate. So, each group went to their posts, and at the agreed-upon time, they ran inside the village.

'It's got no traps or anything. These guys were confident they couldn't find them, to let the pass through so easily.' Matt thought after noticing that there were no traps in a huge dark hallway of the main house.

The house wasn't too sturdily built either to be able to camouflage itself with the houses in the village.

Besides, it looked a bit lonely. But being a big house with small walls, different people's voices could be heard, and some guards were scattered around the place.

"Let's do this quickly. The guards will first clear the corridors of the mansion, and later, we will attack the main hallway all at once." Once inside, one of the group members, where Matt was, was leading the issue.

He was in charge of research and strategies, so he was experienced.

Once he said that, he marked several points within the map that should be the targets of the attack, and the group dispersed momentarily to assassinate the isolated people in the mansion.

A while later, they found themselves in front of a vast room. The other group had just arrived as well, so they nodded.

After that nod, two kicked the door in front of them hard, causing it to fall.

Those inside stood up abruptly, "Who!?"

But at the same time, a loud shout came from behind them.

"Sir, we are under attack!" Eight strong people came from behind, followed by several undead vampires, which made the three groups frown.

'At least at the level of B-Rank Hunters... They won't be hard to assassinate.' They thought.

Inside the room, there were 12 people, not counting the undead. Even so, they were not weak.

Especially one of them, who was so powerful that he was possibly equivalent to several A Ranks.

Moreover, he was a mage.

"Heh, Vampire Hunters, you've become arrogant these days!" Replied the most powerful Mage as tremendous power rumbled through his body.

The Hunters frowned at the sight of it. 'We were not informed of such a powerful person.' The two larger groups looked at each other.

Immediately, those behind and in front of them unleashed their powers, causing venting from all sides. The undead also stood their ground for combat.

One of the group stood looking back after seeing this.

"We'll kill these bastards quickly. Make sure you guys hold on; we'll support you right away." Among the three groups, it could be said that the group that hadn't fought Matt was the group that was helping the most.

However, their decisions were becoming more and more convenient for Matt.

'Well, it's time to start doing things right.' He thought to himself.
