Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!

Cecily Edevane brooded over several things as she looked at the spot where Jack Allen disappeared. 'Looks like things are finally going to get interesting.' She smiled a little and put away the box Jack had given her.

"He doesn't seem to like you very much." She said, glancing at Charles, who stood behind her.

He shrugged his shoulders. "Well, what can I do? I'm not a beautiful woman who says a few nice words to him every now and then to keep him there." He replied, and Cecily scoffed.

"Well, it's not like you have the charisma to get people to like you, either."

"That's rude, Lady Edevane."

"But I'm right."

"..."

Cecily Edevane started walking in the opposite direction from where Jack had gone after this exchange of words.

Charles sighed and followed her. "What did you buy him?"

"Information. Matthew Dietrich is a name that catches my eye. If it weren't for the fact that I'm too lazy to move, I'd go meet him today." She replied, and Charles scoffed.

"You're not too lazy if you came here. He's very close to here, and I can talk to Emma to get you an audience with him; I hear the two of them are friends; why don't you come over?"

She looked at him. "Say your terms for doing that. When you bring Emma Lewis into the equation, it's because you have a lot of interest in something, so I won't agree without knowing your terms."

"Hehe, I just want to know all the information you get from him. I'll put you face to face with him; you'll get to know him well, won't you? Unfortunately, I don't have a pretty feminine face; approaching a man like that would feel strange to me, and he wouldn't reveal anything.

Possibly, he would just feel fear, but with you, it's different; with you, it would work." His way of speaking was a little strange. It looked like he was teasing, but the truth was that he meant it.

But Cecily sighed. "You ask a lot, Charles Relish. Forget it; go meet him yourself. I don't have that much time to waste talking to someone of little importance; you, on the other hand, have all the time in the world." She said that, and after saying that, she disappeared from where she was.

Charles sighed. "Tsk, this woman is so impatient." After saying that, he turned back and flew high to see much of the Dark Kingdom.

"Hehe, this is the first time I've seen anything make this woman move. She seems to know a lot of things."

"The Dark Kingdom, eh... You're getting interesting again, Kingdom of Treasures." After smiling, he disappeared from where he stood, leaving the place in a deep silence, where only the nearby birds were singing.

...

Away from the Dark Kingdom, the Becker Clan was in an uproar over the anger of several powerful people.

"Shit, those Allen bastards know how to move their cards." Growled Leader Becker as he slammed his glass of tea on the table.

In front of him, there weren't many people. Several high-ranking men in the Clan and some of their sons, plus a man in a black cloak that covered him completely.

There were only 7 people in the room, but they all seemed to be powerful.

"Sir, the Allen Clan, I think, just wants to put on a circus this time. To my appearance, Gray Allen appointed him Leader to distract us. They've been bothering us for a while now, and they want to divert our attention elsewhere. Maybe they are preparing for something big behind the scenes." Said one of those present, causing Leader Becker to glare at him fiercely.

"I know that, you idiot! The point is, what the hell is that bastard planning!?" He was so angry that the glass of tea in his hand exploded into pieces.

That made the man shudder in fear, and he couldn't respond anymore. Find your next read on empire

Leader Becker got angrier, but this time, he knew how to calm down in less than 1 minute.

After several deep breaths, he frowned. "And that Matthew Dietrich... He has been on our list for several years. Two years ago he wasn't so powerful, despite what my nephew said... What a strange situation. How did he become so powerful?" he said, but suddenly remembered something.

"That's right, he was the one who got that herb... Maybe if they make good use of it... No, there's no way." So many probabilities were running through his mind that he didn't even realize he was talking.

He knows Gray Allen is not just any man. His every move has a motive. And it is that motive that makes him uneasy.

The most troublesome Allen man cannot get out of his sight so easily, for it would be too dangerous. But now, one more variable has appeared.

A young man capable of increasing his strength more than 10 times in 2 years. Where did the Allen Clan get him from?

And yet the Allen Heiress is now revealed to have a talent on the level of the 3 Most Powerful. That ability to increase so much power in such a short time is amazing, which makes the Allen Clan benefit greatly.

"Tsk, those bastards have too much luck." When he realized this again, the anger in his body increased. He stood up and kicked the table to the side of him hard, causing it to fly apart and slam into the wall.

His fury vented at that, so he looked at those in front of him. "Call our allies in the City of Clans. Tell them it's time to get to work. Make sure to avoid anything that can be tracked by the Allens. I'll go to Central City." His drastic change took those in front of him by surprise.

But he didn't care and started walking toward the door. As he passed by the person with a cloak over him, he looked at him. "You're coming with me." He said and then walked out of the room.

The rest of the people sighed but went to do as they were told.

During these days, news of Matthew and the Allen Clan went around the world. It was shocking news that even made the Vampire Clans impatient and made Matthew Dietrich's name on everyone's lips again.
