Vampire Academy?

One day later...

"Charlotte!" cried Matt again, and he jerked upright.

His outstretched hand failed to grasp the beautiful woman in his dreams, which filled him with remorse again.

Still, it reassured him to realize that he was in the same room as before. At the very least, he had not woken up in another strange world of dubious provenance.

This time, realizing this, he also realized what was happening, as he remembered the pain he felt before he fell unconscious.

'Several abilities traveled with me... These two abilities were the most important for me to become the most powerful assassin in the world. Dimensional movement, while not as powerful as in the past, was still good. After all, it could fool the perception of those 3.' He thought.

Those people were not weak.

When the three of them revealed their powers, he realized that if they had attacked him, they would have killed him in one blow.

Strength like that was incredible, so he was thankful that they didn't attack him, and at that moment, he only thought about repaying the debt to this girl who had rescued him in that cold place.

Although, right now, the issue was not the strength of those guys.

But the abilities that had traveled with him.

His dimensional movement, one of the most essential skills when he was a hunter on Earth, was already impressive enough, but...

What about the Icy Curse?

This skill was the most important skill for him and was the skill that gave him the title of 'Ice Assassin,' even before he had assassinated the Ice Emperor.

Thanks to this skill, he was able to assassinate the emperor.

The fact that he had traveled with him gave him a great advantage, but...

The name had changed.

It used to be called Icy Power, but now it was a Curse.

'What does that mean?' he thought.

Not only had the name changed, but he could use it more versatilely than before, and it seemed much more resilient.

Basically, he could create Ice from the non-existent, and it would be so tough it could amaze him.

Still, it wasn't bad at all.

This was quite good.

'Being reborn is already good enough for me, but what if I'm reborn with abilities? Isn't it an amazing opportunity? Shit, I guess I really can't stop smiling...' He thought, and the smile on his face was captivating.

Still, his thoughts were moving more and more towards hatred and thirst for revenge.

'If I was given the chance to tear you bastards apart, do you think I won't? I swear that I, Matthew, will tear each of you apart, even if you are a world away.' He thought with a growing hatred in his heart.

To be betrayed by his best friends and those he saved from certain destruction, how could he feel good?

His beloved wife, with whom he had spent more than 35 years and whom he loved with all his soul, died in his arms while they were fulfilling the last promise. If it wasn't for those bastards, how could they, the Heroes of Humanity, meet such a sad end?

In the end, the whole of humanity betrayed them and sentenced them to certain death.

'In the same way, I will sentence all of you to annihilation...' He thought, gritting his teeth through the hatred and pain he felt in his heart.

But he soon diverted his thoughts and feelings to another direction.

'Vampirism... I need information from this world to learn how to use it, according to my memories and Miss Alice's words; to increase my power, I need to use that skill. I have to find a way to prove it.' He thought with a smile.

Being human, he has little chance of becoming strong.

On Earth, he needed to awaken as a hunter to make it. Maybe it would be a little different in this world, but he was sure of one thing: vampires are one of the best races for increasing strength. So, he was happy to have been reborn as one, not that he had any feelings towards the human race that betrayed him.

Still, Alice's sudden entrance into the room interrupted his thoughts at that moment.

"Matt, are you finally awake?" She asked in surprise and rushed over to him with some tears in her eyes.

"You finally wake up!" She said, almost crying, but didn't do anything else for fear of hurting him.

Matt looked at her, and although surprised by her tears, he smiled, "I'm sorry if I worried you. Thank you for bringing me back." He said, and she shook her head several times.

"No, no, thank you for what you did that day. Honestly, thank you so much." She said, bowing to him.

That day, maybe she could have been kidnapped. How could she not be grateful?

But before he could speak, she stood up, "Are you hungry? I made something that will go down well with you." She asked.

Matt looked at her, slightly surprised at her excitement, but nodded at her. He certainly was hungry.

He looked at the clock to the side and noticed that quite a bit of time had passed. There was no way for time to go backward, so it could only mean that he had spent one day unconscious (or it could even be more).

After that, Alice quickly went out and returned with the excellent food she prepared.

The food was delicious, so Matt devoured it. After that, she washed the dishes and went back to the room.

"Matt, my dad came back this morning and wants to see you. Are you feeling up to seeing him right now?" she asked, smiling.

Matt looked up and saw her a little confused.

'Alice's dad? I think she told me he was pretty strong, and considering they seem to be incredibly wealthy, maybe he's pretty powerful...' Matt thought, frowning.

He didn't know much about this world. A world of vampires couldn't be ordinary.

Just as a 20-year-old like her had a level of power capable of killing him in one blow, how about one of the leaders of the family she belonged to?

His power had to be absurd, probably.

That might prove to be dangerous, but...

'I need to get strong enough to look for Charlotte. This world is very dangerous; if she reincarnated just like me, she could be in danger. Knowing a strong person like him, maybe he can help me.' He thought, and so he nodded to Alice.

"I will meet him; I must thank him for rescuing me." He replied.

Alice was visibly excited and immediately got up to lead him to the place.

Soon, they were both walking through the vast Allen Family mansion.

This place was quite big and beautiful; the mansion's structure was unique, especially the main castle.

'My God, this is huge...' Matt thought as soon as he saw it.

On Earth, there were no such constructions left. They were destroyed by demons and monsters or even by the same treacherous human being, so seeing this beautiful construction of the ones in the Middle Ages brought a smile to Matt's face.

Also, people were coming in and out of this place. When they saw Alice, they bowed to her and continued their way.

They both entered the castle. From the initial view, until they both reached the room, Matt was in awe of this place's beautiful building infrastructure.

Everything was beautifully decorated and tidy, which left a good impression on him.

They both then entered the room, which had beautiful lamps from side to side to illuminate the whole place.

In the middle of the room was a desk with different books and some papers; a burly man was sitting there.

When he heard the door, he stood up, "My daughter." He said, smiling, and Alice ran to him.

"Father, I brought Matt." She said, smiling.

He nodded and looked at him.

"Boy, it's amazing that you healed from those bad injuries. I'm glad the medicine worked." He said, smiling.

'This man is powerful.' Matt thought.

Ever since he had entered the room, he had noticed a powerful aura around him. He was sure this man was at least ten times stronger than Alice.

The thing is that he does not understand such an extreme difference in power.

The power in this world is different from his world. In his world, they used mechanisms to measure the mana or strength of the individual to give him a Hunter Rank.

Their mana reflected their strength.

But in this place...

The strength is different. Their power is different, and how they wield it is even more different.

Even the vampires he faced in his world are not like these.

That's why he doesn't understand the strength they have.

Though his thoughts wandered from side to side, Matt quickly responded.

"Sir, thank you so much for saving me that time and for the medicine." He replied and bowed.

He should be grateful to those who deserved it, and these people saved him without even knowing who he was. Even if he knew they might have other motives for doing so, he didn't care right now. The main issue was that he had been rescued, which was important.

The man in front of him nodded towards him.

"You can call me Gray; I am the current leader of the Allen Family and this City. Make yourself at home while you are here, but if you want me to help you find your family, you can also tell me, and I will." He replied and waited for a response from Matt.

Matt smiled, "To tell you the truth, I think I have amnesia. But according to my few memories, I belong to a Family with the last name Dietrich; I don't know if you know where one can be found." He asked, and Gray's eyes widened slightly at this.

'Dietrich?' He thought and frowned.

'There hasn't been a Dietrich in the 5 Kingdoms for over 10 million years... Could it be from the other side of the mountains?' He thought.

However, the fact that this person had the surname of the greatest Saint Clan ever existed surprised him.

But he said nothing more.

"I will investigate about it and tell you as soon as I know. But I'll inform you that in our 5 kingdoms, there is no family with the surname Dietrich; you may have to wait years or decades to receive news because I have to investigate on the other side of the mountains." He replied, surprising Matt with his answer.

'That many years?' He thought, but he still had no choice but to nod.

"That's all right, Mr. Gray. I appreciate your help." He replied, and Gray Allen laughed.

"Hahaha, it's alright, kid. Though you are fortunate to have the last name of the most powerful Saint Clan our world has ever had, for that alone I admire you, hahaha." He said, laughing. Then, he turned around and started walking, urging him to follow him into the next room.

"Boy, do you know what you want to do from now on?" he asked, and Matt nodded.

"I need to build up my strength, Mr. Gray. So, I need to go out and train, but I will do that after I pay my debt to you." Matt replied, and Gray nodded.

'Good answer.' He thought and smiled.

"If that's so, why don't you go to the vampire academy? I heard from Alice that you have 500 power; even though it's not much, it's a good starting point, and you could be with Alice. Besides, you may find answers from your Clan that I don't have there." He replied.

"Vampire Academy?" Matt asked, confused after hearing this, and Gray nodded.

Then they entered the room. There were many large coolers with bags filled with red liquid.

'Is it blood?' Matt thought with a frown. He didn't know why; his stomach growled slightly in a way that only he could hear at the sight of this blood.

And Gray then turned around.

"The Vampire Academy is the favorite place to increase your power when you are young. Plus, you will meet and gather contacts that will help you in the future. What's better is that it's the perfect place for research because they have the greatest reach in this world. I once studied there, and I attest to their greatness." He replied.

"There are two ways to enter now, one as a common student. This one I do not recommend, they do not give you benefits and you must fend for yourself to get strength, they will only teach you how to do it and nothing else. The other option is to enter as the subordinate of an Heir. The benefits they give you are incredible and give you better studies."

"If you want to choose the first option, you must wait until next year to enter, although the maximum entry age is 20, so you can't enter then. If you want to enter as a subordinate of a Heir, you have one next to you, and I can give you the entry token at once." He replied and smiled at the end of his words, looking at his stunned daughter.

"If you want to come in, that's fine; if you don't, that's fine too." He said and then stood there waiting for a response from Matt.
