Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!

A person who boasted a transformation with barely 10,000 power was someone dangerous. Not that it was impossible; there were cases in both races, especially in the vampire race.

However, those transformations usually don't increase combat power that much and usually do so in a fixed way.

Also, not many people have transformations. Vanessa knows only five people of all races who have transformations. Naturally, not counting the 'Vampire Mark' that Vampires receive once they reach 50,000 power.

Such people's transformations are respected and admired, although they do not increase power very much. On average, they can increase between 2,000 and 3,000 power, which is significant enough.

Such an increase in power at these levels can be crucial to win a fight.

But besides the 'Vampire Mark,' there should be no other transformation capable of increasing strength in such important percentages. When they exceed 50,000 power, vampires become such complicated existences to defeat that they are scary because of the Mark. How could they have a transformation that helps them to increase power in percentages further?

The person who undergoes that transformation may not be dangerous right now, but in the future, he could become the absolute ruler of the world. And even more dangerous is that that person has a saint weapon.

'That's a hazardous person... Matthew Dietrich, huh?' Vanessa thought.

She returned her gaze to the cloudy sky, which was pouring rain all over the Capital City.

"You will eventually get your revenge. I'll investigate this Matthew guy more later. For now, tell me how the investigations I asked you to do are going?" She asked.

Caroline nodded. "Miss, the investigations I've been conducting in the city tell me that there are more vampires in the city than I thought. Those people who showed up at the academy don't appear to be the two infiltrators, as Abyl Taylor is said to have been a subordinate of Ava Thompson's, who was hiding her identity for a long time.

Ava Thompson has been looking into all of this, and Abyl's family was also questioned about it. It seems they had no idea, and they passed the test; they are human."

"What I believe is that Abyl Taylor manipulated them in some way, perhaps with the help of a magician. They keep saying they saw Abyl Taylor being born, and there is no way she is a vampire."

Vanessa shook her head after hearing this. "Impersonation, it's nothing new. Don't tell me that story, I want to know what you found out about those two. There's no way the information I gave you is wrong."

"All right, miss. Moving on to the main topic, I've been researching hard all this month. I struggled because there weren't too many traces to follow, but I'm sure that the vampire couple that infiltrated is in the slums of the city. Also, according to investigations, next to a certain square, every night, people's screams are heard, and they are terrifying screams."

"I was able to confirm those screams, and I chased the person who caused them. I am sure he is a vampire. He is not old; he is young. But I couldn't find out his power. What I can say is that he's very fast."

Vanessa nodded after hearing this. "The screams were from the victims, weren't they?"

"Yes, Miss. When I was following him, I found dead bodies. They were of women, so I can assume it was a man since there were only women around. Though I also found traces of women that could be vampires."

Vanessa nodded. "How are the corpses? Did he abuse them?" she asked, and Caroline shook her head.

"No, he just sucked their blood, and then they died from some sword thrust to the heart or a clean cut to the neck."

After saying this, Caroline began to give Vanessa a more detailed explanation of what she had seen and what she and her group had discovered so that Vanessa could better understand it all.

'From the way she says it and with all the information I have, the two infiltrators must be precisely those that man said some time ago... So that Matthew guy is close... This will be interesting.' Vanessa smiled and rose gracefully.

She walked to the window and spoke.

"Caroline, we'll move. We'll make an all-out attack to find those two; you may not know this, but it's almost certain that one of the two vampires I'm looking for is Matthew Dietrich. So, I think you may soon be able to get your revenge." She replied, and Caroline stood up in surprise.

"Miss, do you want to launch a mass attack? Isn't that counterproductive? If we do it during the day, they won't show themselves, but fighting them at night could be dangerous. Although I haven't seen very powerful people, the fact that there are so many vampires inside the Empire's most guarded city makes me believe that there are several who are very powerful.

Besides, there could be traitors; isn't it better to do it carefully and from the shadows?"

Vanessa shook her head. "As dangerous as it may seem, the idea is to try to stay ahead of what those vampires think. Possibly, they think like you and don't think we have the guts to attack it at night. Besides, that's precisely why you say I have to make a mass attack. The traitorous bastards won't show themselves unless we take them to the ropes.

Therefore, mobilize the troops, and let's make a massive attack tomorrow night. Even if I have to overturn the capital and the sun doesn't rise the next day, I'm going to find those traitors and all the vampires." Vanessa was determined to do it that way because she knew it was the only way.

She can't play mind games against vampires because they don't play by the rules. Even more so because she doesn't know how many enemies she's up against, which makes her make drastic decisions.

Although Caroline was surprised by this decision, everything Vanessa said convinced her, so she quickly nodded and left the room to prepare the troops.
