Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!

Chapter 2: His Power and Skills

The fact that this place had several moons was unexpected to him and told him that he was not on Earth.

It was impossible for the Earth to have had three moons at any time in its history, so he was sure of it.

That being the case, where was he?

The answer seemed to be simple but, at the same time, hard to believe.

'This is another world...' Matt thought as he walked through the city.

The language they spoke, he doesn't know, but he can understand it.

The customs seem different, but if there is something similar, it is how they buy and sell.

The distant sound of trains attracted his attention, and cars with excellent and unique designs that were not so fast occasionally passed by.

The city looks many times more resilient than any technology-enhanced city in his world.

The walls of the houses look sturdy and thick; they are very well made, so much so that no earthquake that has happened on Earth could do anything to them.

The city's overall infrastructure is fantastic. Much better than the modern world's infrastructure, or at least it was to Matt's taste. They were sturdy, and the medieval-style buildings, with modern touches, were beautiful.

Some people carried swords and different weapons on their bodies, while others used some bags to stuff many things in without it growing a bit.

At first, he might have thought this place was the Earth several hundred years ago when trains began to appear. But the moons above told him otherwise.

'What the hell is this place?' He thought as he walked through the city.

Suddenly, Alice asked him, "Matt, may I know your last name? So, I could think about where I should look to find your family." She asked, smiling and with an innocent face.

Matt looked at her and nodded slightly.

'My last name...' He thought.

According to the memories he received when he was reincarnated into this body, his full name was Matthew Dietrich. Still, nothing in his memories told him the location of that family.

Getting help from someone who knows about this world is a good option.

That's why he didn't hide it.

"My last name is Dietrich. Do you know of any family with that last name?" he asked, and she was surprised and looked at him.

"Your last name is Dietrich?" she asked in shock.

Matt nodded, "That's right." He replied, and she, in shock, stopped walking.

Still, she was soon walking again.

Of course, she knew of a family with that last name.

The problem is...

"...It's not just me, this I think anyone in this Kingdom will tell you. The Dietrich Clan was a saint clan over 10 million years ago. Since they disappeared, we never had that surname again in this place." She replied and then looked up smiling.

"So there really do exist other Clans with that surname; I didn't know that. It probably belongs to the other Kingdoms, or maybe it could be in that place you call Demon Territory. I'll ask my father when he returns to help you better." She spoke.

Matt frowned and didn't respond. He looked straight ahead as he continued walking.

'Saint clan...Dietrich Clan, 10 million years? Shit, that's too far out. I wonder what kind of Clan it was.' Matt thought, although that was his only thought on the matter.

However, the fact that she knew information from 10 million years ago with such clarity proved that this place wasn't his world anymore.

After all, there were no historical records of that time on Earth.

After walking for a while, they both came to a vast and beautiful building, which appeared to be a government building. However, in this case, it was not.

They both entered and were taken to a lonely room after being greeted by a person.

Alice let Matt stop near her and went to do what she was supposed to do.

'Is that a texting object? It looks like a computer keyboard, too, but it's ethereal... Is it magic?' Matt thought when he saw Alice.

She was using a long-distance message-sending device, which is very famous today. This device is used with magic, and the cost is high, but it's fast, so it's worth it.

Once Alice did what she came to do, she turned to leave.

But she noticed Matt was looking at various things in the room and smiled, approaching him.

"It's a Vampire Ball; if you want to check your vampire power, just put your hand in there and inject power." She said suddenly and grabbed it in her hands.

She closed her eyes briefly and injected power into the ball, causing the crystal ball to glow red for a few seconds.

Next, a number appeared on the crystal ball.

"5,050 is my current power. Do you want to try it?" She asked, smiling, and Matt, though surprised, nodded.

He took it in his hand and did exactly what Alice did.

There was no difference, only that the red that lit up was more like a bright crimson, which surprised Alice a little.

"What great purity." She said suddenly.

And soon, a number was visible.

"?500?" She said in surprise.

'That low?' She thought in shock.

Still, she looked at him, "Have you ever trained to increase your power?" she asked.

After a moment, Matt tried to remember and shook his head, "I don't remember, but I have a feeling I haven't. Honestly, I don't remember anything from my past." He replied, and she nodded.

'He started with 500 power? Wow, that's pretty good.' She thought and smiled.

Since he said he had never tried it, he should try this place's other attraction.

Therefore, she turned around and grabbed a book.

"Here, use this." She spoke.

Matt was confused, "What is it?" he asked.

"It's a book that will show you what skills you have. Actually, right now, it should only show you one skill, Vampirism. But you might not remember it, so seeing it for yourself and seeing its description will be better." She replied, smiling.

Matt then nodded and looked at the book.

There was nothing inside it.

This confused him, and Alice smiled, "Use it the same way as the ball. It will write things in there when you use it." She spoke.

Matt nodded and used it without wasting any time.

The book lit up slightly with a bright, red light.

Then it went out, and various letters appeared in the book.

Alice noticed something strange about this and rushed over, but the book showed nothing for her, 'Right, it's only visible to him.' She thought but stared at him as he read what was in there.

Matt was in shock seeing this, 'Why do I have so many abilities?' He thought, a little surprised.

Besides, they didn't seem to be normal.

Name: Matt Dietrich.

First skill: Dietrich's Vampirism.

[Dietrich's Vampirism. Skill improved by the Dietrich Clan. Effectiveness doubled. Anything considered blood training you do will give you double the benefits].

When he saw this, he felt confused, 'Did my clan improve the Vampirism skill? And the feeling I had had before about Vampirism seems to be real. I feel like I can become strong by absorbing blood.' He thought, looking sideways at Alice's neck.

Every time he saw it, he had the same feeling of wanting to sink his teeth into it, though he restrained himself in the end.

The benefits of this Vampirism were incredible if he got the two-for-one, but truth be told, he had no idea what he was referring to.

'Unknown?' He thought as he looked at the second skill and then the third one the same.

On the fourth one, it changed something.

Fourth skill: Dietrich Transformation.

[Unknown.]

'Just the name?' He thought and felt his head hurt from not knowing what skills he had available, and the ones he had didn't even say what it was for.

It wouldn't even tell him how the hell to use it. Were they mocking him?

Ultimately, he tried to use it like when he used his skills in his past life...

And he hit the nail on the head.

But the feeling of his head spinning made him a little dizzy. That feeling he remembers, he felt it once.

Back then, he had a system in front of him that told him he couldn't use it because he was too weak, 'Is it the same this time?' He thought and was convinced that it was when he tried to use it again.

Thus, he realized that he could not use the transformation. Resigned, he reviewed the skill book again to see his last two skills.

'What the hell? What are they doing here?' He thought in shock, but just at those moments, a commotion happened outside the room.

And the door was flung open, which attracted his attention.

"Haha, Miss Alice, I finally found you." Said a tall man as he walked through the door, followed by two others.

The clothes they wore were glamorous and of high quality.

Alice frowned as she saw him here.

"Mr. Becker, I hope you are well. If you're coming to visit my brother, he's out of the city. If you wait a few days, you can surely talk to him." She replied, smiling.

The man approached them and shook his head, "This time, I am here to see you, Miss Alice." He replied.

Alice stared at him, "Our city is not close to Becker City, and I am not close to either of you; what did you come here for this time?" She asked directly.

He smiled.

"Young Mr. Becker wants his Inheritance Token. We offer a full alliance with the Allen Clan in all sorts of things and also a long list of treasures." He replied confidently as he handed her a small piece of written paper.

There were various names of treasures written there.

Still, Alice ignored them and stared at him.

"Do you want me to hand over my Inheritance Token? Mr. Becker, is your Clan trying to make fun of Clan Allen?" she replied angrily.

Mr. Becker shrugged, "Miss Alice, think it over. It's useless to you; you're the weakest of the Heirs, and you haven't even been able to awaken your ability. You will die sooner rather than later. If you hand him over to us, we have someone worthy of him, and your family will receive our help in everything; plus, you will receive many rewards that will make you much stronger." He replied.

Still, Alice scoffed.

This was a clear insult to her Clan, so she passed him the paper.

"The door is where it always is, Mr. Becker. Tell your Young Lord that he is not welcome in Allen City." She replied coldly.

Mr. Becker frowned, "Are you sure about this, Miss?" he asked angrily.

And she shrugged her shoulders without giving him an answer, which already reflected her position on this.

She was being serious.

This made Mr. Becker frown, but he nodded.

"Fine, if you want it that way." He replied.

Just as Alice thought he was going to retreat, Mr. Becker kicked the ground hard and jumped on top of her swiftly.

The other two people behind him did the same and jumped up to surround her.

Alice was frightened by this, so she instantly tried to defend herself.

She hadn't expected to be attacked inside her own city.

Still, it seemed to be too late...

They were as strong as she was regarding vampiric power; they were speedy people, and being caught off guard, she could not defend herself.

'Shit...' She thought.

Just then, Matt, who was watching from the side, raised his hand to the front and, in his mind, said, 'Icy Curse.'

With his thought, a thick wall of ice formed in front of Alice in the blink of an eye, confusing the attackers, who had to stop in their tracks.

Still, Matt wouldn't give them time to react.

He immediately made another move, disappearing from his place with one of his abilities, and without anyone noticing, he appeared behind Mr. Becker with an icy dagger in his hand.

"If you move, his head will fly off." He said coldly.

They were shocked and looked at him in shock, "Who the hell are you!?" one of them shouted, but seeing the dagger in his hand pressed tighter into Mr. Becker's neck, none of them dared to move.

They had been caught off guard by a move like that; they had ignored the other person's presence in this place.

Or perhaps that person had concealed his presence so that none of them would notice; they did not know which was the correct answer, but what was certain was that now their leader was being threatened in this way.

Mr. Becker frowned and looked sideways. He couldn't sense a high power in this guy behind him.

He could neither confirm who this person was nor was he sure that he could kill him, but...

He didn't want to find out either.

If this guy could get behind him so nimbly, maybe he could assassinate him, and he wouldn't risk that possibility.

That was why, besides frowning, he didn't do anything else. Just then, the icy wall in front of them dispersed as if by magic.

He looked at Alice then.

"You've gotten yourself a good bodyguard." He said, a little angry at his foiled plan, and quickly got out of Matt's grip and left, grumbling in his mind.

However, the most confused was Alice, who couldn't figure out what was happening.

Still, she didn't have time to think.

When those guys walked out the door and disappeared, Matt couldn't help but spurt blood from his mouth and fall to the ground.

He was in shock...

'Why did these abilities travel with me?' He thought in confusion, using the last vestiges of his consciousness, before falling completely unconscious...

"Matt, what's the matter with you!?" Alice asked in shock and rushed over to him, but no matter how hard she tried to talk to him, she received no answer...
