Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!

Chapter 80: A strange architecture

Seeing the world from such a high place left a good impression on Matt.

This world had no pollution to interfere with his view, so he could see as far as possible. That was impressive to him.

He hadn't noticed it because it was night all the time here, but now that he could fly so high, seeing the far reaches of this world felt unreal.

On Earth, it was impossible to see it, even if you were in an airplane.

'...What a beautiful place.' Matt thought, looking from side to side. He was the most surprised right now.

A while later, though, he thought of something.

'On my way out of Allen City, I remember seeing a few vampires flying without the need for beasts. At first, I thought it was an ability that was unlocked as the vampire got stronger, but the director looks very powerful and doesn't seem to be able to fly. Could it be that this is not the case?' Matt thought and looked at the director.

"Director, previously I saw some people fly without needing beasts, can you do it too? They seemed to use magic or something." Matt said, attracting the director's attention.

He looked at him and smiled, "It's true that there are vampires who can fly, but they need to reach a certain level of power to be able to do it. I can't do it; I'm very close to achieving it, but increasing my power is getting harder and harder. I may never be able to achieve it." He replied, surprising Matt.

"What is the level of power a vampire must reach to be able to fly?" Matt asked back, and the director sighed slightly.

"30,000. That's a difficult height to reach." He replied with a sigh, and Matt nodded.

'So, the director is close to 30,000 power... And those people I saw flying, maybe they are Allen Family powers.' Matt thought.

Although...

30,000 power was a number too far out there right now for him.

So, he sighed and stopped asking questions.

Still, the director still had a few more things to say.

"Kid, since you ask this, I'll tell you that it's not easy to reach those heights, so the people you saw were surely amazing. Those kinds of powers usually belong to one of the Vampire Clans, they have immense wealth and tremendous power to help their people reach those heights.

You must keep in mind that once someone reaches 10,000 Power, the difficulty of getting more power increases considerably, and after 20,000, it is the same."

"Mentalize that so it doesn't take you by surprise when you reach those heights. Go prepare beforehand as well." He said though he smiled in the end.

"Well, as long as you get some bloody partner who is very compatible with you, you can advance much faster, and since you seem to be getting help from the Allens, I'm sure you can reach those heights someday." He culminated.

Matt nodded, "Thank you for your advice, director. I'll keep that in mind." He replied, and the director then nodded, looking at the two students behind him.

'It seems like both of their determination is a bit unwavering, but I wonder why I feel like they're not a bloody couple, even though that girl sees it with so much love.' He thought and then gave the eagle a little swat, telling it to fly faster.

And so, the hours passed until finally they could see the First Academy.

As the director said, they were close to each other. Although they still had to travel for several hours at such a high speed as that.

Maybe overland, it could take a day.

'How great this academy is.' Matt thought, looking at the land in front of him.

This place was much more beautiful than the First Academy and looked much more alive. There were even a lot of powerful guards flying around on griffins and other powerful beasts as they protected the place.

'Unbelievable... In the Second Academy, there is hardly any protection. I seem to have heard that we only have 20 griffin mounts, but here, I've already seen over 400.' Matt thought with surprise.

However, the construction of the first academy caught his attention more.

This place was vast, and looking down from above, you could see that there were two sections.

The first section that was visible to them looked like a city, a vast metropolis with only four streets wide enough to land several planes of the Earth simultaneously without crashing.

The first street on the left had huge, nicely decorated classrooms on both sides. They were as big as three or four classrooms of where Matt studied, and it wasn't just one; it was several. While the ones on the far left were arranged in a curved way forward and to the right, the ones on the right side of the huge street on the left were arranged straight ahead.

The same design was laid out on the other side of this place, on the street farther to the right. The halls farthest to the right were arranged in a curved form at the end, making it look as if the halls on the right and those on the left were to be joined by the final curvature they had.

And the classrooms and other constructions between those two rows of classrooms were arranged straight.

It was a peculiar but attractive design.

And each of the rows of classrooms in this place flowed like a waterfall at the end of it all, where there was a colossal medieval-style castle.

That castle was also the central part of the academy, the place where the leaders of the academy were.

But, at the back of the castle, there was more construction, which, according to the director, was where the most powerful students and heirs were still studying. There, the classrooms were arranged in huge, beautiful mountains that connected to the castle in one way or another, but they were not all on the same mountain.

There were two halls per mountain, with 16 on those mountains.

For Matt, this was a fantastic thing to see.

'What interesting and strange architecture. I've never seen anything like this in my life. Although I have seen cities built on one side of the streets like here, but they are not arranged in a curved manner at the tip... What an interesting way to build.' Matt thought.

Also, if you looked closely at the sides of the two sections of the academy, there were giant buildings that were also training places for different things; there was also a place for beast tamers and other impressive halls.

"What strange architecture... Did they have something in mind when making it?" Matt asked suddenly, not holding back his curiosity.
