Chapter 32: Return to the Academy: Good Power. Good Guts.
When they returned to the academy, the three gathered in Matt's room to celebrate their good hunting and partied late into the night.
At those moments, Alice received a message via messenger bird that made her smile.
"Matt, the battle of the halls of the First Academy is about to begin, and I have been chosen as my hall's participant, so I will have to come back tomorrow." She said, smiling.
Matt nodded at her, "What exactly is this battle? Some tournament?" He asked, and Alice nodded.
"That's right, it's a tournament of forces. The chosen ones participate in combats to get a good position in the Top of the tournament and receive rewards. In this case, this tournament is just to choose how much resources each classroom receives, depending on the quality of their students. It's entertaining; you should participate when it's time for the Second Academy." She said, smiling.
Matt nodded, 'Measuring strength against people in your own category should be good...' He thought, smiling, and nodded to Alice.
"If I get the chance, I'll participate." He replied, and after some small talk, both girls went to sleep while Matt went to train some more.
This time, he was pretty happy, so the smile on his face could not be erased.
Finally, he could feel that his strength had really increased.
He is no longer intimidated by Alice's strength when she unleashes it, and although she is still a rival he can't beat, he feels he is getting closer and closer to her.
But what made him so happy right now was that he managed to participate in eliminating two beings with more than 5 thousand of power, giving important blows.
Especially that final blow he gave to the devourer, who had a power level close to Alice's.
Even if that broke several bones in his hand, it still filled him with happiness.
Several weeks ago, he had great difficulty facing those devourers who attacked them during the night and almost died in the attempt, but now he was even able to kill a devourer who clearly looked much more powerful than the ones from that time.
This made him smile, and the urge to get stronger came.
"Right, I haven't tested the increase in my strength in the last few days; how much will I have?" Matt said, talking to himself, and pulled out the vampire ball.
Soon, some numbers sprouted above the vampire ball, revealing his current power level.
Reagan Cooper was surprised as he read them, "They seem to be planning something pretty big, those guys. And from the keywords they use... It looks like they have something to do with the timing of the Heirs receiving their Inherited rewards." He said as he studied the scroll from side to side.
This caused Matt to be surprised.
"Are they targeting the Heirs?" he asked.
Although he could understand everything written there, as someone who was not of this world nor understood the Devourers, he naturally did not understand the keywords.
But to Reagan Cooper, a well-known member of the military who now teaches at this academy, knowing these things was a matter of course.
So, he nodded at him.
"It's possible. Boy, you got some good stuff this time; what the hell did you go hunting for? For there to be such good secrets there, looks like it was a good beast." He replied with a smile.
Matt nodded.
"He was a dragon. We got information about him in the cave where the village devourers were, so we ran there to prevent someone else from stealing him. We were lucky that the devourers weren't there when we arrived." He answered truthfully, surprising Reagan.
"A dragon!? Boy, your guts are as big as your luck!"
The surprise on Professor Reagan's face was great, but he was totally pleased that Matt was such a gutsy person.
That's just what a suitable vampire needs.
That was why he couldn't stop smiling.
And Matt felt a little embarrassed. If he had been a healthy dragon, it was possible that he would have thought twice before going to try to kill him, but he didn't need to tell him that.
On this occasion, he was also interested in something else.
"Professor, a while ago during class, you mentioned that the reason you made us pass the first test in the Control test was because that is the first step to becoming true Vampires and reaching the goal that every vampire wants. Can you explain more in detail?" Matt asked a latent curiosity in his mind.
When he heard about this, he wondered what the path to being a true vampire was and what the goal that every vampire wants is. In the history books he read, it didn't say anything like that.
Maybe one of the empty feelings he was feeling was because he didn't have a clear goal besides becoming strong to search for and protect his beloved wife. Would he manage to fill that void if he gets a new goal? That was his question and the reason for his intrigue.
