Chapter 69: A plan and deep thoughts.
With this attack, the fighting arena split, and a huge crack was visible. At the bottom was Harry's body, totally unconscious, while above it was Matt, glaring at him mockingly.
For some reason, he felt he could have made him suffer more. But in the end, he sighed, 'Rules are rules.' He thought and turned to leave the arena.
.
At the same time, in the section where the directors were.
"How is that possible!?" shouted one of the directors. The guy who had always kept quiet and said good words about Matt, who had also fought Reagan Cooper before.
Everyone was shocked because they had understood some things that others had not.
"Did everyone see that? That was weight gain using vampire power as a base?" one of them asked in shock.
And the head director nodded.
"I mean... This theory first appeared over 1 million years ago, but no one ever understood how it could be done, right? This guy actually managed to do it?" The head director asked in shock and looked at the director who had shouted earlier.
The latter also looked at him; the shocked look and the open mouth of such a powerful person like him made the head director realize that, indeed, this boy had managed to do that.
"Hey... What family is this kid from? How true is it that he doesn't have any family?" he asked, sitting back down.
The head director looked at him and sighed, "According to my research, he has no family and was found by the Allen Clan, but we have no information about where they found him. Apparently, those who participated in the raid where he was found were only Gray Allen and Alice Allen." Replied the head director and looked at him doubtfully.
"Why? Do you have a plan?" he asked, and the man smiled slightly.
'Such a talented kid and no family... That's pretty good. Maybe I should talk it over with my brother and see what he says.' He thought and shook his head towards the head director's question.
"Just curious. Find out how he gets on with women." He said, and the head principal looked at him in shock.
"Are you planning to marry him off to your daughter?" he asked in shock, but this man stared at him.
"Are you an idiot? My daughter was just born; how am I going to marry him to her?" he asked angrily, and then the director fell for it and apologized.
"If so, what are you planning to do? I don't think the king wants to give him his daughter, do you? That woman... She's hard to deal with, and he's still very young, you know, she's 40, and he's 20." He replied, and the man smiled a little.
"Okay, you just find out what I want, and I'll do the rest." He replied and leaned back in the chair once more.
'We really were the first after Allen to discover someone so capable... This is a miracle.' He thought to himself.
.
As Matt was walking out of the combat arena, when an intense vampiric power exploded at that moment and he frowned.
'So powerful?' He thought and turned to the combat arena where it had come from.
There were two contestants there, both of whom were among the most powerful in this place. Even so, a swift and sharp movement of the guy carrying a sword was soon seen.
It was so fast that it was hard for any student to see, but the terrifying power he carried drove his opponent out of the arena quickly.
'...A student of over 5,000 power, huh... That's pretty dangerous.' Matt thought as he frowned.
Though in the end he smiled and turned around to continue on his way.
There was no need to overthink things. If the time came for him to face off against this guy, he would look for a way to defeat him.
'Although it would be best to avoid showing off my more important skills.' Matt thought and returned to Isla.
"Are you all right?" he asked when he saw her, and she was glad to see him back.
"I'm fine, Matt; how was your fight?" she asked a little anxiously, and Matt nodded to her.
Just at those moments, a commotion occurred in the halls of the medical center, and many doctors passed by carrying a huge body across the front of the room.
Isla was surprised, "Harry Brown?" she asked hesitantly and looked at Matt, who sat beside her.
He smiled at her.
"Fortune smiled on me and placed that bastard. His condition right now is ten times worse than yours, so you can rest easy." Matt replied, leaving her stunned.
Tears couldn't help but pool in her eyes, causing a small lump to create in her throat.
She then rushed over to him, crying, and hugged him lightly tightly.
"Waaa! Thank you, Matt, thank you!"
She understood that Matt had done it for her; maybe he could get in trouble, but he still did it to avenge her. That made her feel good in her heart, and she couldn't help but thank him repeatedly while crying.
That's why she couldn't help but cry intensely until she fell asleep.
Matt smiled at this and sighed.
He left the room where she was and went back to his room, as he looked thoughtful.
Night soon began to fall as the hours passed, but Matt did not sleep. He kept looking out the window.
He looked at the token Alice had sent him for a while, though he sighed, for he could guess nothing from it.
In the end, he focused his thoughts on thinking about the matches and his possible opponents.
Only one of them was dangerous; if it was his turn in the next round, he might even lose before reaching his goal.
'A vampire with 5,000 power is dangerous. I could sense that he was stronger than the guild instructor, and his main weapon was a sword. Although I have great experience fighting swords, the martial art he was using was different from the ones I know.' Matt thought and frowned.
'When I was coming, I also heard that that guy has a power enhancement ring.' He thought, and he pulled out the ring Gray had given him.
'I can't use it until I have over 5,000 power... That means that guy can already use it.' He thought, letting his thoughts wander, trying to find a way to beat that guy.
