Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!-Chapter 13: Testing his strength

The first five beasts he had to kill with 100 Power were barely small beasts with 500 Power.

Moreover, they were the most basic and with the most weaknesses.

Therefore, Matt smiled without hesitation and pounced on them, giving a solid blow to the first one he encountered.

The impact sent the beast flying, and it fell, rolling dozens of meters, but Matt wasted no time and directly gave the next attack against the other beast nearby...

Although his attacks only had 100 vampiric power, he could slay them all in a few seconds due to the great weaknesses of these beasts.

Instantly after, five beasts appeared again.

Matt looked at them and noticed that they barely had 1,000 Power, so he smiled.

He clenched his fist, which became surrounded by extremely pure and red vampiric energy, increasing its strength.

He jumped hard through the air and gave a decisive blow to the beast that was in the middle, crashing it to the ground.

This beast couldn't even take one more hit; it immediately disappeared, and Matt, wanting to end this quickly, jumped on another one...

Using 500 power against these basic beasts, the situation would be no different from the previous one, so the fight was over in a few seconds.

The third wave took a while to come out, but the beasts only had 1,500 power.

'It's a bit pitiful, but... Well, it seems I've even been underestimating myself.' He thought to himself, smiling, as he fought against these beasts.

His power had increased to 3,000, but what does that mean? He doesn't know, and that's why he tried to challenge himself yesterday.

Although he thought he could win easily, he also did it to test how high his power had reached.

Even so, he still doesn't get it.

The beasts in this place don't give him a sense of accomplishment when he slays them. They are just virtual beasts, and that bothers him.

That's why his third wave finished it even faster than the previous ones with direct attacks.

'It's not enough. I can't figure out how high my current power is; could it be that I would still be daunted by the power exuded from Alice's body?' He thought. He wanted to find out but had to make do for now.

.

Just at those moments, outside the testing ground, some teachers were amazed by Matt's speed.

"Hey, that kid is amazing. He made it through the first 3 waves in a few seconds. Professor Reagan, it looks like you finally got a good seed; this one is faster than that White kid." Said one of the directors, smiling.

Professor Reagan nodded with a smile.

He hadn't expected this, but...

It seems he had still underestimated Matt.

"Hahaha, this kid was handing me as many badges as possible on each passing day of the week. He's a genius; looks like he'll be able to get the S Rank." Reagan replied, and the directors nodded.

"But he doesn't look very satisfied; could it be that he wants to do it faster?" another director asked doubtfully.

Reagan Cooper had noticed this but didn't think that was the case.

Speed was good enough, instead...

He felt Matt was going through a stage he went through as a young man.

'His power increased so quickly, he doesn't understand it, making him feel insecure. This boy seems to have worries in his head that drive him to become strong.' He thought and smiled after realizing this.

'He is not someone who should become strong by facing fake rivals like these. It seems it's better to train him in really dangerous places.' He thought, and the plans in his head became clear.

It seemed he could see the right way to teach this boy.

Matt had finished the A-Rank battle and was about to start the S-Rank match when he was thinking like that.

So he looked at the director who controlled the room next to him, "Can you give him a tough opponent? Tougher than the rest. If he fails, I will be responsible for telling him." He said, and the director looked at him in surprise.

Still, he realized Professor Reagan's intentions, so he nodded and did so.

Reagan Cooper then smiled.

This is a match he certainly wants to see. He doesn't know if his mentality of being bored in these tests will cause him to make a mistake and not get the S Rank or, if he'll get it just as easy, or maybe he'll find his ceiling against this new opponent?

Whatever it was, he was having fun.

.

Matt was bored.

One of the teachers had said something to him a moment ago about the S-Rank Test about to start.

But he didn't have high hopes.

'It's better to go out and hunt different beasts to enjoy a real fantasy world than to be cooped up here, increasing my power.' Matt thought, and just then, a beast in human form appeared in front of him.

It was pretty great, so he was surprised and had to look up.

'A giant?' He thought in shock.

It was about 3 meters tall, but what made him call it that was not its height, but its musculature and the fact that he knew this breed.

'Hahaha, I didn't expect there would actually be giants like this here.' He said to himself in his mind.

He had fought these giants when he was on Earth, so he was glad to see something 'familiar' in this place.

But this also stirred his desire to want to fight it.

Also, the fact that it had 500 more power than him made him even more excited to fight it.

This was a beast on the level of the ones that gave him a hard time but with the advantage of having a naturally powerful body for being of the giant race. For that, he smiled.

He clenched both fists tightly, and a vampiric power rose in both arms. The burst of energy caused the giant to go into a combat stance and start attacking him immediately.

'It's just like on Earth.' He thought, smiling.

He lunged at him to punch him in the face without a second thought, but the giant countered with an equal blow.

The impact sent the giant a few steps backward while Matt managed to push him hard.

As he fell to the ground, Matt propelled himself against him again and caught him off guard, delivering a blow to his stomach, which was followed by a flurry of more blows, pushing him back even further.

Seeing this, he shot out again, leaping into the air shortly after to deliver a heavy blow to his face, sending him crashing to the ground with great force.

Even so, the giant took advantage of that moment to throw a punch, from which Matt had to defend himself.

*BOOOOOOOM*

The explosion caused by the giant's strength and Matt's protective power sent him flying meters backward until he stopped.

'Oh? He has great strength, as expected.' He thought, realizing that his protective power had been nearly shattered with a single attack like that.

He smiled and looked ahead but didn't see the giant anywhere. Just then, he sensed danger from above and looked up in shock.

'How the hell is he so fast?' He thought after seeing that the guy was very close to him, about to hit him.

He immediately moved his two hands forward to defend himself.

"Buagh..." The impact pushed him forcefully backward and stirred his internal organs a bit, which knocked the wind out of him momentarily.

Still, he quickly pulled himself together as he saw the giant continue its pursuit of him and put his feet on the ground to stop.

Then, he jumped high to dodge the giant's punch, which he slammed into the ground.

Matt clenched his fist tightly, gathering all his strength in the attack, and fell on top of the giant with a huge impact on his back.

The giant is not as agile as he appears, so he can't turn around and can only fall straight to the ground by force.

Still, it is not an animal or a living thing. It can't really feel pain.

Therefore, he swung his elbow hard, trying to hit Matt, but Matt raised his left hand to sustain his attack.

He then continued to strike the giant's back, causing it to roar and move sharply to knock him off it.

Matt jumped backward away from him and grinned.

'Heh, let's try this attack I've been thinking about... I don't know if it will work.' Matt thought.

He gathered all his power in his right hand, causing the muscles to take on a slightly tight and rugged look. They grew a little while the veins became even more visible. His bulging muscles slightly tore at the clothes he wore.

Then he smiled. He looked at the giant before him and ran at high speed...

Arriving shortly before him and without thinking, he swung his fist and unleashed a mighty blow toward the giant's belly.

He didn't expect him to attack him like that when he was still recovering, so he couldn't defend himself.

Even so, the fist stopped a few centimeters before hitting him, while all the vampiric power in Matt shot out like a cannon toward the giant's belly...

The impact was tremendous, and the explosion shattered the giant's body in milliseconds, ending the battle.
