Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!-Chapter 157: Improvements
The days passed quickly since that event.
For Matt, these days have been calm and relaxing.
He was able to train properly and noticed that his power had risen to an incredible height, so he became increasingly encouraged in his training.
Also, thanks to these peaceful days, he could train hard with his bloody partner and noticed great things.
The first thing is that having a bloody partner is the best thing a vampire can do. The difference is noticeable between training without one and training with one.
Before, his power increased by 30 to 50 during every academic training using high-level blood.
Considering that each academic training session tends to last between 1 hour and 2, that amount was incredible—even more so because he didn't use authentic blood.
However, this time, he could notice an increase in quantity by 40 to 50%, using the same high-level blood. The difference was even more noticeable if he practiced with authentic blood.
The previous 30 and 50 had now become more than 100 per academic training.
If he wanted to train more roughly and without following the academy's guidelines, the number could only increase, although injuries also increased.
This was unbelievable to him, and if it weren't for the fact that he needed rest for the blood to merge properly with his body, he might have trained 20 hours a day to increase his effectiveness to the maximum.
Unfortunately, he couldn't do that.
Still, he saw his power increase amazingly every time he trained.
Isla was also a beneficiary, and she didn't expect it to be that way, for her power had skyrocketed tremendously since she started training with Matt.
Though she had her own conclusions and among those conclusions, she was sure of one thing: Matt's blood is not just any blood.
Not only is it incredibly delicious in an abnormal way, making even her addicted to drinking it. But, since she drank it, her stamina and resilience increased.
Everything inside her has increased lately so much that she even feels a bit afraid of it.
However, lately, she seems to feel more afraid of other things, like how some beautiful ladies tend to look at Matt a lot, somehow making something inside her activate and want to pull out her sword.
Still, they are only fleeting little feelings.
She is still in awe of the fact that her strength has increased dramatically, for which she feels grateful to Matt, as she is sure it is all due to him.
For both of them, these have been beautiful training days as they feel their power is getting closer and closer to their goals.
Yesterday, Matt was summoned to the Kingdom's Capital, where he was to be finally consecrated as a Bloody Vampire General before all the kingdom's powers. He seized the moment to bring the entire report of the mission he had recently completed.
He came here alone, but Isla and Alice also rushed to the Capital to be present when he was consecrated.
After entering the Castle, he was brought before the King and handed over the entire mission report.
In addition, he told him about the destruction of that organization's headquarters with the help of the Allen Clan.
It was an extensive and exhaustive report that showed Matt's skills as an expert investigator, assassin, and a great strategist.
The meeting with the King lasted several hours until nightfall when Matt could finally be free.
'Tomorrow will be the consecration.' He thought as he walked back to his room.
As he did so, he frowned as he passed near a balcony of the Castle and looked over.
There stood a beautiful woman in her late thirties. Long red hair waved in the wind as the cool evening breeze lightly brushed against her.
Her beauty was incredible, and her mature aura gave her a special and unique feeling.
She was the type of woman that could cause many to fall in love.
She turned as soon as she felt Matt's gaze and frowned as soon as she saw him.
"Matthew Dietrich." He said softly.
"Miss Assassin, you are quite interesting. Perhaps I should say better, Princess Royal." Matt replied.
She glared at him and then shrugged as she began to walk.
"Won't you join me, General Bloody Vampire? Let's have some wine." She said as she walked past him, inviting him to a different place.
Matt smiled and followed her, "I don't want wine, I prefer some blood or water."
"Fine, follow me then."
After that, both walked through the Castle deftly and entered a room.
'It has her scent. So, she sleeps here. It's not as elegant and feminine as I expected.' Matt thought.
Alice's room was quite feminine and elegant with slight extravagance. Isla's room is very feminine, with surprising tidiness.
But this room was a little different. It didn't have the feminine touch of those rooms; it seemed more mature.
It was very large and decorated with elegance and wisdom. Red was the predominant color, which combined very well with the golden decorations. The lamps hanging from the ceiling dimly illuminated the room, giving it a slight sense of mystery.
Although it looked elegant, there was a touch of roughness in every section of the room, as the furniture, although made of excellent oak wood, was not very elegant.
"I didn't expect a princess's room to be so rough, with so few touches of elegance." Matt said, surprised by this, and she smiled at him.
"If you can't see the elegance in roughness, you won't be able to understand the elegance of the harsh reality of life." She replied.
Her response made Matt startle.
'She sounds like she has a lot of experience.' He thought.
She led him to sit at a window overlooking the balcony, where she served him what he asked for.
Authentic blood as if it were wine in a slightly rough glass of wood.
She did the same for herself and stared at him as she drank this delicious blood.
"Do you like it?" she asked softly.
Matt nodded, "Surprisingly, this authentic blood is delicious. Looks like I need to buy more blood in the stores."
She smiled at his response, "This blood is not for sale. It's royal blood."
"Oh, it's royal blood? What a surprise, so that's what you take in this place." Matt was surprised by this and took another sip.
Then she nodded slightly.
"Well, the one you're drinking is my blood. The one I'm drinking is second-rate blood I bought."
Matt stopped drinking for a moment and stared at her.
"It's not common to invite someone into your room and give them your own blood to drink."
