Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!-Chapter 15: Several Villages Exterminated

After arriving at Professor Reagan's office, he bestowed a different reward on them.

"S Rank is not easy to see among low-level students, so you deserve that." He said, smiling, and they both thanked him.

"Now, I want to talk to you about something." He spoke.

"How are they going with looking for a Blood Mate?" the professor asked calmly.

The academy regulations encouraged students to get a Blood Mate, so he didn't need to explain that.

Caspian White, the other one who had achieved S Rank, smiled.

"Professor, I already have a Blood Mate, and although I'm looking for others, the one I have is quite strong. She's already a First Academy student." He replied, and Reagan Cooper looked at him, nodding gently.

"Well there, boy, no wonder your power is high. So, you've been receiving blood from a high-level vampire. Finding a second blood mate will help you tremendously if that's the case. If your second blood mate has a power similar to yours, it's better, as you might be able to keep her from betraying you." He said, and Caspian nodded with a smile.

Reagan Cooper then looked at Matt, "What about you? Is that girl that was with you today your blood mate? Or could it be that you have been lucky enough to have Miss Alice as your blood mate?" he asked.

Matt just looked down a little and shook his head.

"For now, I don't have a blood mate." Matt replied.

The professor frowned at seeing him like this and nodded to him. Then he looked at Caspian, "You can come out. I want to talk to him alone." He said, and Caspian obeyed, leaving shortly after.

The professor then poured some tea for Matt and made him sit down.

"Your looks aren't bad, and Miss Isla has potential and good looks; why don't you take her as a blood mate? You won't be a real couple but could become one." He spoke.

Matt smiled a little.

He has no desire to look for a partner of whatever because Charlotte occupies his whole heart.

If it's not Charlotte, then he doesn't want someone else.

"I already have a wife, Professor Reagan. I feel that if I seek a blood mate, I might be betraying her." He replied, and Professor Reagan eyed him doubtfully.

"Does your wife study at the academy?" he asked.

Matt shook his head.

"I don't know where she is." He replied, making the professor realize it was a touchy subject, so he stopped talking.

'Maybe the pain of losing her keeps him from seeing other women...' He thought, so he nodded.

'Okay, we won't talk about this anymore. But as a teacher, I will tell you that looking for a bloody partner is essential. You may not understand the difference between the blood you buy out there and the blood of a real vampire, but the difference is drastic." He said and then stopped talking about it.

He told Matt several more things for a while until Matt decided to come back.

'Blood mate, huh? I have no desire to look for one, even if they tell me I can increase my strength much more...' Matt thought as he looked up at the night sky.

He had spent so many hours talking to the professor that it was getting dark.

As he returned to his residence, Matt was surprised to find Isla sitting, waiting for him.

When she saw him, she smiled broadly.

"Matt!" She said happily and ran up to him.

"Welcome back, and congratulations; I didn't expect you to be so talented to get the S-Rank in such difficult tests." She said, smiling, and then handed him a small box.

"Here, I brought you a present. They are small cakes; I made them myself." She said, smiling.

Matt was taken aback by this but grabbed the small box and thanked her, "Do you want to come in and eat? I have some juice." He said, and she nodded repeatedly.

They both went inside and started eating the treats she had baked, which were delicious, and spent the night talking about different things until it was time for bed.

.

The following day, classes officially began in their classroom.

From teaching them the theoretical stuff to the practical, Professor Reagan was very professional in his teaching, and thanks to there being only 10 of them, they were all able to talk to each other and make acquaintances with each other.

Although Matt was pretty closed off as usual, so many didn't approach him. Apart from occasional chats with Caspian White, he only used to talk to Isla, as they practiced together.

So, a few days passed. Matt planned to go to the mountains to hunt beasts; being in a class was always as dull as he remembered.

And just in those days, Professor Reagan called Matt and Caspian.

"I'll be blunt. You two were chosen, along with other students from other classes, to investigate the extermination of several villages in the vicinity of the academy. These are villages that, although poor, have vampires, and the extermination is a bit strange. Maybe there are devourers nearby." He said and then explained several more things to them regarding this training.

"You can both go with your teams." He said and then looked at Matt.

"Matt, your team is that girl. Don't you need another one more? Teams 3 are better." He said, but Matt shook his head.

"It's okay, professor. I feel comfortable with Isla, so my group will currently only be with her since she can keep up with me." He replied, and the professor then nodded.

"If that's the case, then you can go. But be careful; it is possible that these exterminations are caused by devourers." He said, and just then, Matt spoke up.

"Professor, I think I can tell you a little information about that." He said, causing them both to look at him.

"Oh? Do you know something?" the professor asked, and Matt nodded.

"When I was on my way to the academy, Alice and I found a village that was attacked by devouring beasts; they had a devourer as a leader. We managed to kill everyone there, but those beasts left no survivors in the village." Matt said.

The professor nodded slightly, "So something like that happened... I understand; I will talk to the management about it. Let me tell you that you guys have no other mission but to get information. You can fight, but only if you see that you can win; if not, prioritize going back quickly." Professor Reagan said, and then they both left.

Caspian went one way with his group while Matt went to warn Isla.

She got a little excited, though the nervousness was evident on her face. Still, soon, they were both out of there, heading toward the designated locations.
