Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!

Abyl Taylor mustered up some courage to speak up, but seeing that Ava had made such a risky decision for her made her feel a lump in her throat.

She wasn't sorry for anything, though, because she couldn't control these things. She was turned into a vampire overnight without her even being able to defend herself, and that was why she was now being chased all over the city. But there was nothing she could do.

That's why she didn't know how to respond to a person who had risked so much simply to hear her side of the story.

"Miss... It's a difficult situation to explain..."

Ava interrupted her when she tried to say something. "Don't make excuses, Abyl. We were always good friends and you showed me your sincerity with your actions. You were willing to stand in front of me to face anyone to defend me; that had shown me that you were a trustworthy woman, and that's why I gave you the status of being the Guardian of the Thompsons, even when you don't have the power."

After saying that, Ava dropped her umbrella to the ground, and the downpour came down again, this time on the two of them. Ava walked to the front, turning her back to Abyl, standing helplessly before her.

"I always considered you my most loyal friend, who I could turn my back on and feel confident that I would never be stabbed in the back. But this time, I don't know how to feel. I turned my back on you, but why do I feel like I might be stabbed now? It's not the identity you now use, it's that you never told me before. If you had told me you were a vampire, do you think I would have dismissed you?

Don't think me a lowly human, Abyl." Ava spoke softly, but they were words that hit Abyl hard.

For they were filled with a sincerity never before seen in Ava Thompson, a woman who, it is said, can give up anything if it is for the sake of her territory, even her body.

She is not self-serving; she just wants the welfare of what her parents left for her.

Abyl then swallowed several times and spoke.

"Miss, the truth is..."

"I can answer what you want to know, Countess Ava." Suddenly, a man's voice came from behind them, startling them.

At the same time, several dozen people were felt in the vicinity.

After this, Ava was in shock and quickly grabbed her umbrella. That wasn't just any umbrella; it was her most precious weapon.

'More than 25 vampires? And they're strong.' She thought.

Abyl turned sharply after hearing this voice and smiled happily, "My Lord!" She said with a big smile after seeing Matt arrive.

Matt nodded to her and waved as he arrived next to her. "You've done well. Sorry for taking so long to arrive; I was rounding up your sisters," he replied. Alice was also standing next to him.

There were also 28 vampires in the vicinity. All powerful women.

Ava was stunned to see so many vampires in the city. It was assumed that vampires had it extremely difficult to get in here. How could there be so many?

Because of this, she was put on alert.

If one thing made her feel good, it was that it looked like those people were with Abyl. However, in a way, it felt terrible for her, as she was the only human present.

Matt stared at her.

The rain continued to pour down on this night, but it wasn't hard for him to stare into her eyes. He could tell she was being careful, and it made sense.

What he was doing was practically a threat. He brought all the women with him because of the 'negotiation' he wanted to make because he wouldn't take 'no' for an answer.

"Countess Ava, as I said, I can answer the questions you have for Abyl. I can also tell you why we are here, so I would like to talk and negotiate a few things." Matt spoke up.

"Negotiate? I guess you're not really here to negotiate. It's a one-sided negotiation that doesn't take no for an answer, right?" she laughed after saying this, as it didn't make too much sense to use the word negotiation in a situation like this.

Matt naturally knew this but could only shrug his shoulders. "Countess Ava is a perceptive woman. That makes I want these 'negotiations' to go faster."

Ava Thompson frowned and looked at Abyl. "I just want to know what happened with Abyl, isn't that too much to ask? Honestly, I can even turn a blind eye to you guys being here, if you don't get me in trouble."

"If you want to know what happened to Abyl, it's not too complicated. I found her almost a week ago wandering the streets and worried, so I gave her a boost to help her complete her revenge. If she's much changed from the Abyl you knew a week ago, it's because of this."

"You mean you turned her into a vampire in 1 week? I think lies can be told in a better way."

"Countess Ava, why don't you prove it, then? Since you don't believe me, let me approach you, and I will show you why Abyl is now so different from what you remember."

Ava Thompson frowned once again. "If you want to get close, why don't you? If you think you can turn someone from human to vampire overnight, then wouldn't you do better turning me into one and talking later? I don't think that would affect your plans." She replied, and Matt sighed.

"I'm not suicidal, Countess Ava."

Ava sighed after hearing this. "So, you can see that. I thought I could use it this time to exterminate a bunch of vampires... Maybe it could raise my nobility rank with such a good deed."

Matt smiled. "If I couldn't see it, I wouldn't have lived this long." He spoke.

Indeed, this woman had a really powerful item surrounding her body. At the scene, only Alice and Matt could see it, and Matt was aware of this tactic.

'This woman is an assassin... And a very high-level one. She's someone dangerous, even though she's not that strong.'

That item moved using mana and was extremely small, resembling a needle.

The speed at which it moved was so absurd that it could assassinate anyone who approached her in a second.

It was a deadly assassination tactic of the highest order, with the only flaw being that it had a limited range. Still, it would be enough to kill Matt if he was careless, so he couldn't approach freely.

Ava then looked at Matt. "Tell me, what exactly do you want?" She said, lowering her umbrella.

'An umbrella as a weapon, huh... I haven't seen anything like that in a while. It's more dangerous than I thought. She could hide as many needles as she wanted in that umbrella, and no one would be able to see it. How dangerous.' Matt smiled.

"My plan is to turn you into a vampire, Ava Thompson. I will give you a higher status than you already have, but before that, I want to show you why I want you to do it and why it is in your best interest to do it. I'm just waiting for your decision." He replied.

Ava Thompson could tell he wasn't kidding, which struck her as odd. Still, this situation became intriguing to her.

What if it was possible to turn a human into a vampire? She didn't hate vampires, for sure. On the contrary, because of the feats they had done in the past, she had come to admire them, even though she had killed several slightly.

It was because of this that the weapon circling her suddenly stopped.

"Follow me to the mansion. You can bring your people with you." She replied and started walking in another direction.
