Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!-Chapter 127: A good merit achieved, what is in that Token?

After long talks with the King, Matt walked through the castle until he reached his assigned room.

Although he had not been consecrated before the army to avoid raising suspicion from enemies, his status was very high right now.

So great that he had access to a lot of privileged information.

The King told him many things about the City of Clans that stunned him, including its history and the secrets it hid.

Although they were important, they were not of much use to Matt other than to help him know how careful he should be when going to that city.

In addition to that, he mentioned things to him regarding his new status.

Even he was stunned after hearing all the benefits this status brought.

He would not be given any army in the Five Kingdoms, but this was not because his status was not high enough, but rather because his status was so high that he could command all five armies, provided certain conditions were met.

For example, if at some point Matt wanted to fight the devourers, he could go to any of the five kingdoms and request the King to be allowed to use the army for that mission, and the King has a certain obligation to let him use it, provided some minor conditions are met.

It was so high a status that he couldn't help but be stunned, just thinking that he now counted on this status.

'I haven't even been in this world for very long... Although I understand the reason why I was granted it, isn't it too much of a gamble? This King is a bit strange and straightforward.' Matt thought when he reached his room.

It was a huge, comfortable, well-ordered room with many things he could use.

Beautiful chandeliers hanging from the ceiling adorned everything and gave a fanciful feeling.

Matt didn't stop to contemplate the room; he simply sat down at a small table and took out some of the things the King had given him.

To one side, he put the uniform he had been given, which would not be used until his consecration, and a few more books.

The King had mentioned those things to him and several important topics of the mission he had accepted.

Among those important topics, he told him about a book they had discovered in the room of a certain nobleman, the Marquis, that was being investigated this time.

That book had helped them discover more or less the location of these traitors, so it was an important book for them.

That book had been handed to Matt this time, and when Matt saw it, he knew what it was about.

'A book with encrypted words in it of that organization... This will help me figure out what the hell is inside this token.' Matt thought as he pulled out the stolen token from Philip Baker and the book.

In fact, the book was a bunch of encrypted words, some of which were found to have a rough meaning. But the vast majority were raw.

Still, Matt is a high-level assassin; how could he not have experience dealing with these cases?

Also, at Matt's request, the King granted him a giant encyclopedia, so Matt soon immersed himself in a thorough investigation of this subject.

He did not have many days to prepare, for in order to prevent the traitor from escaping, Matt had to leave for the City of Clans the moment Isla and Alice returned to the academy.

That was why he needed to prepare. freeweɓnovel.cѳm

The hours passed, slowly and leisurely, while Matt was immersed in writing various things on a pile of papers.

He didn't even notice that Alice had entered his room a few hours before and was watching him from the side, a beautiful smile on her face. Her look when she saw him said she was very proud of him.

Still, she didn't bother him, and he didn't notice her.

So, 2 hours, 4 hours, 8 hours...

12 hours.

Somehow, 24 hours passed in a moment, and Matt hadn't slept during the entire time.

Still, he didn't need it. He didn't need sleep; he needed answers.

After so many hours, a smile formed on his face, and he grabbed the map next to him.

Then he opened it on the table where he was working and looked at it from side to side.

'I knew it; it was an address. Although it doesn't say what it is, it's a location within the borders of the Kingdom...' He looked back and forth at the huge map, comparing the researched location to the map.

'It must be around here...' He moved his hand slowly across the map, and his finger stopped at a specific location.

'I see, it's near the Academy and the City of Clans...' He thought and remembered what that 'Lord Envoy' he had discovered through the inscription had said.

'Their goal is to control this whole region... And this location was hidden in the token of such a powerful person as Philip Baker...'

His thoughts were quick and precise, moving back and forth as he tried to understand what exactly this location was.

His eyes sparkled soon after.

'Could it be the headquarters of the organization? Is it so close to the Academy and Clan City? Shit, they really have big guts.' He thought but smiled.

He realized that, in fact, that seemed very likely, and happiness hit him.

Discovering the headquarters of this organization was so important that, if it really were, it would have already made a great merit. Besides, things could go differently now if that were the case, and it would make many things more manageable.

That's why he was happy and finally relaxed, leaning back in the chair.

Just then, he felt something enter his sight and looked up.

"Alice?"

Alice smiled, "Good job, Matt. As expected of you, you're making me prouder and prouder." She said, passing him a glass of water.

Matt thanked her and took it.

"Sorry, I got immersed in research and didn't notice you."

"It's okay, Matt. I've been here for many hours, did you manage to find out anything?"

Matt nodded, "It's possible it's something big, but I still need to confirm it, but I think it will be satisfactory." As he said this, he looked around.

"What about Isla? Wasn't she with you?" he asked, and Alice shook her head.

"She's being consecrated, did you forget? She is now a General, and her consecration is today." She replied, and Matt nodded.

'Right, I can't participate lest the word about me spread.' He thought.

Alice smiled after saying that and stared at him.

It was written in her eyes that she wanted to tell him something, but she didn't dare say it, and she didn't know why. Maybe she thought she would be using Matt if she revealed what her mind was thinking.

Still, she soon lowered her head.

"Matt, can I talk to you a little about your identity as a Subordinate?" she asked.

This caused Matt to look up doubtfully. "If you have something to tell me, I'll listen. I have some free time before I leave." He replied, and she nodded softly.

She turned to the room's balcony, and Matt followed her.
