Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!-Chapter 160: Words by The Princess
"What do you guys object, you say? Hehe, well." He said and pulled out a letter of invitation.
This letter he had sent to the various powers present, some of whom had brought the people who were now complaining.
He then read it aloud, making all present hear him.
He was clear in reading and writing this letter because he naturally knew that something like this would happen today.
So, when he finished reading the letter, which made everyone wonder what he was planning, he stared at them.
"Did you read the letter well? It clearly says that you are invited to witness the consecration. I did it out of respect, not for you to come and complain and say you are against it. This is a consecration ceremony left by our ancestors. Where do you get the nerve to object?"
"And I don't care if you are a Bloody Vampire General, Duke, or Marquis, High Commander of the Kingdom, or rich man; you have no right whatsoever to object. You are invited to witness it, not to oppose it. I hope my words are clear; if they are not, let me explain once more."
The King looked at all those who had complained and spoke again.
"None of you are worth complaining about. A Bloody Vampire General who earned his rank by slaying devourers and creating an amazing ability that can be passed on to other generations. I respect you for that, but let me tell you that Matthew Dietrich here has done no less than you.
Being much weaker, he managed to assassinate several high-level devourers, helped the Kingdom capture powerful traitors, and was even able to destroy one of the headquarters of the organization that is now creating trouble in the Zimermann Kingdom. Are any of you here worthy of standing in front of him?"
"You, a Duke who lives off the greatness achieved by his father? Or you, an Army General who is with one foot in the grave? Hmph, back to your seats. You are not worthy."
Dawid Lewis has always been straightforward and tells things like they are. While he sometimes seems like someone who relies purely on force, he also vets people in high places so he knows what to do in case something happens.
He learned this from Gray Allen, so he tends to be careful when these types of meetings occur.
So, he was already prepared.
His words made many of them frown, but the Bloody Vampire General was unwilling.
"Even if you say I'm not worthy, Miss Lewis isn't? She should be in that place right now! We all saw how hard she has tried, being your daughter; how can you ignore her in such a way? She's not even here, so I guess you sent her to the border to fight. Are you really going to overlook what people trying to reach great heights have done for someone as small as him?" he replied fiercely.
Being one of the highest-level people in the world and being so young, he naturally knows the King's daughter, and they have even done missions together. Therefore, it is obvious that he was going to stand on her side this time.
Likewise, he knows that his words cannot be ignored.
"Since you want to bring up the subject of my daughter, I must show you my daughter's decision in this matter." The King said coldly and took out a royal scroll.
It bore the seal of royalty, specifically the one belonging to the Princess of the Kingdom.
Then he opened it and read its contents, which were not much.
-I, Emma Lewis, am leaving for the border after speaking with Matthew Dietrich. I must make one thing clear to anyone who would oppose his consecration: He is worthy. I would not have done what he did, nor would I have accomplished what he accomplished. So, even though he is weaker than I am, I recognize him as worthy.
I don't think anyone else can say anything about it besides me. So, I hope that his consecration will be carried out correctly.
I leave this writing with my acknowledgment, the Royalty Token that belongs to me. I will now bestow it for anyone to recognize him as someone worthy of the title.
Honestly, I am not up to the task yet, but I will not give up on completing my dream. The last Token of General Bloody Vampire belongs to me.-
That's what the scroll said; simultaneously, the Royalty Token fell from the scroll into Dawid Lewis' hands.
He didn't even bother to say anything else.
"Whether my choice was right or wrong is not for any of you to say or decide, so fulfill your role as a spectator guest and stop wasting my time." He then handed the scroll to Matt, along with the token.
Even Matt hadn't expected that move from this fascinating lady.
Smooth and elegant in name but rough and decisive in nature, this time, she had made a move exactly equal to what her nature indicated.
'She really is a great woman.' Matt thought.
The Bloody Vampire General, who had been made a fool of this time (or at least that's how he saw it), trembled with anger upon hearing this.
"Right, I can't say anything more in that regard. If she decided to give up, then I have to accept it. But I can't accept him," he said, jumping up from where he was to stand on the carpet.
"Audacious!" the King shouted as soon as he saw this.
"How dare you stand on the sacred carpet at a time that does not belong to you!? Do you really want to die!?"
Several shouts came from one side to the other.
But some people stood on his side.
Among them, the King present finally revealed that he wanted to see this.
"Dawid, stay out of the problems of young people. We've told you so many times, so why do you keep doing it?" he said, causing Dawid to glare at him.
The Bloody Vampire General smiled as he saw this person take his side and glared at Matt. frёewebηovel.cѳm
"If you think you're worthy, why don't you fight me? Ever since I was chosen as a Bloody Vampire General, I said I would participate in all subsequent consecrations, and if someone weren't worthy, I would kick them off the mat. You are not worthy; that's why I'm here to kick you and prove it to the world."
Matt looked back at him, "I think, in addition to being arrogant, your brain broke down a bit." He replied with slight disdain.
Still, there was reality in his words.
However, the guy in front of him didn't seem to notice.
