Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!

Chapter 384: An organization with very deep roots (1)

Matt stared at him. Although he didn't believe in empty oaths, this time, he felt an interest in knowing what this person was going to say.

Seeing him in such a sorry state, he could guess many things. But did it all have something to do with that Organization?

Eliot didn't take long to start talking; his arms were still bleeding, but he didn't care. In front of him was the opportunity he had wanted.

Although Matt might still be cheating him, if he kept it up, he would die sooner or later, and he wouldn't get what he wanted. So, die now or die in a month or two; what difference did it make?

If he could change his trajectory and course, maybe today would determine it.

"My father was a mid-level man within the Organization. He was a strong person with a rebellious personality who had no choice in his life, for when he was born, he had already been implanted with the 'Seal' of the Organization. He dreamed of being a legend of this world, but he knew he couldn't do it because of his Slave Seal of an Organization that seemed to go against the race."

"How could they win? They oppose the race and all the Vampire Clans. To my father, there was no one capable of opposing the Vampire Clans, so he knew that his time to live would be until the leaders decided. That was why he researched, over and over again, for over 100 years, how to get rid of the Unifying Curse.

No one knew about it, so they didn't expect that one day, when he completed a mission and was allowed entry to a certain Library, he would be able to find a way." His words began by telling a story from the past.

No one besides the organization's leaders imagined that there really was a way to break the Unifying Curse. But no one should have access to the section of the Library where it was mentioned.

But Eliot's father did. It wasn't on his own merit, but he once managed to get one of the dead leaders and stole a couple of things from him. Among those things, there was a key that gave him access to that place.

It was thanks to that that he was able to access and find the key to his freedom. Or so he thought. By that time, Eliot Roberts had already been born.

"I was living with my mother at the time. But that time they went together and stole that secret between the two of them. Heh, my father would never imagine that would be the worst mistake of his life, for which he would never be free." When he mentioned his mother and remembered the past, Eliot felt disgust and revulsion, so Matt could guess why.

"My mother betrayed him and went with one of the leaders. They made fun of my father to his face, and subsequently, that same leader killed him at that time. Both of them never thought that my father had already told me the way to get rid of this, so I decided to stay as usual and not reveal anything.

I kept living with that woman to learn from her, and eventually, I was sent here as an infiltrator in a bigger plan; there were several with me. It was then that I remembered that my father had told me before he died that if I ever make it into the Academy, I must find a way to break the Curse so I can be free."

Matt didn't really want to hear this story, so he stopped him as soon as he said this. "Just tell me what you know and the way you have to break the curse. You don't need to tell me a story. I also see that you don't want to tell it, so be direct."

Eliot smiled in embarrassment when he heard this and nodded. He was telling it because a story could make everything more believable. But since he didn't want to, he would cut to the chase.

"To summarize, I started looking for the necessary resources. You can break the curse if you sacrifice all your power, but then you will become a crippled vampire, so it is not recommended. That problem can be solved if you have tools or treasures capable of containing power, which will give you power with their equipment, which is equal to your total power. Such as rings, books, and weapons.

Getting those kinds of resources is very expensive, especially if you have more than 10,000 power because getting tools capable of giving you a total of 10,000 power is difficult."

"After collecting money for a long time by completing missions for the Guild and the Organization, I got a few rings, a weapon, and some books. The total power I had at the time was 8,000, but I could only get tools capable of matching 7,000 power. But I was on the ropes.

Once at the First Academy, any powerful person could figure out the Unifying Curse, or so I thought, so I needed to get rid of that thing to get my freedom."

"The First Academy has so many powers that I was sure that if I did it and then went to the Leaders to mention everything I know, they would accept, and I could get a lot of resources. That was why I wasn't afraid to do it; when I did it, the remaining 1,000 that was missing ended up taking away 3,000 of power, and that's why I'm now back at 5,000. But when I finally did it, I felt free..."

"And I ran to that place to talk to a powerful person. Still... Sigh, I underestimated the power of the Organization. They're not just small fry like my father thought. A part of the Academy's high command has been taken over by them. Many students belong to the Organization and no one knows it.

I found out that this is the reason why graduation ceremonies are not held here. Maybe it's because they are trying to prevent the leaders of the world from taking a look at the Academy from the inside so as not to reveal secrets."

"They have contaminated the entire Academy. Although no one seems to know that I managed to break the curse, they already know that I have information from them. That's why they have crossed me out and set the price of food for me sky-high.

Plus, there are several powerful people and professors who turn their backs on me in everything and won't allow me to almost participate in classes." When he finished speaking, he sighed.

He had more to say but had paused for breath, as he would now begin to tell Matt more of the information he wanted to hear.
