Once outside the mansion, Matt decided to do several things today.
The first thing was to visit certain connections within the city, who would give him several things he would need.
One of those people was supposed to be one of the highest-ranking people in the city, so they knew a lot about the city.
The other thing would be to know the different streets of the city and mark on the map the necessary places so that he could have perfect control of the terrain in the future.
'Then I'll have to find a way to find those low-ranking nobles who are here and belong to the King's side.' Matt thought, rembering that he had only been granted a few images of them and the explanation of what they did for a living.
Even so, he will do things pieceal, one at a ti.
'Certainly, the streets of this world lend themselves to murder and nightmares.' Matt thought as he walked through the lonely, dark streets.
It's not that there weren't stores here; there are. However, most stores require VIP identification to enter and are usually kept closed.
Maybe a few people are walking around those stores right now, but since all the buildings tend to maintain absolute silence, there's no bustle outside.
'It's a quiet town, honestly.' Was what Matt thought after he had walked for a long while.
Then, he stopped in front of a well-known huge mansion in the city.
A few people could be seen walking back and forth inside the mansion, tidying up the garden or other such things.
There were also so people standing guard at the gate.
'My god, the guards alone have more than 8,000 power, possibly. What an absurd city.' Matt thought as he handed a card to one of them.
After verifying the card, they said, "Young Mr. Carl, go ahead." Then, they led him inside the mansion.
Like Ericson's mansion, this one was also gigantic. Still, this one had a different aura.
It looked more ticulously cared for and more elegantly appointed than Ericson's.
'Maybe because it belongs to an old man who has lived a long ti.' Matt thought.
After walking awhile, they ca to a courtyard with good views and a huge, beautifully adorned water fountain.
An older man was lying there, reading so things, while two other people were beside him.
They all gave Matt an incredible feeling. They were very powerful.
As soon as they saw him arrive, they nodded to the guards, who left, and then the older man and the others stood up.
"General Matthew, greetings." Said the three as they gave him a military salute.
Matthew nodded back to them.
"Greetings, majors." He replied respectfully.
The elder then told him to sit down.
"Is that your real face, General Matthew?" the elder asked, and Matt smiled.
He then removed the mask he wore.
'He's younger than with the mask...' The three of them thought with surprise.
They had received the ssage that a 1-Star Bloody Vampire General would be sent to investigate the situation, so they expected a young man, but they didn't expect one so young.
'The youngest of the Bloody Vampire Generals is 30 years old... So, it looks like this guy just got promoted... What kind of accomplishnts did he have to have for that old man to promote him?' He thought and smiled at him.
"Very young, General Matthew. I thought you'd at least have another ten years, but isn't you a student? You look like one of them." The elder spoke, trying to get so information.
Matt didn't mind, so he nodded.
"That's right, sir. I'm in my first year at the Vampire Academy." He answered sincerely, surprising this elder even more.
'Too young... Sigh, whatever. I just hope everything goes well and we can catch those bastards.' He thought and smiled at him.
"I won't ask anymore; my heart is not made for such drastic surprises. General Matthew, here is everything you will need." Said the older man, passing him a storage ring.
Technically, after this, Matt should have left quickly to avoid arousing suspicion, but he noticed sothing else.
"It seems you have sothing else to tell , Sir. Be open; I will listen carefully and follow your advice." Matt said, putting the ring away, and the elder smiled.
"I didn't think I were an open book, although my subordinates couldn't tell, so I think you are quite capable." Said the elder and handed him another piece of paper.
"Be careful, General. I insisted on seeing you because I wanted to see how strong you were, but now that I see that you are younger than I thought, I must tell you that there has been a lot of movent in the city lately. Quite dangerous people may have entered, and I can't discern who they are. Even those monsters upstairs haven't been able to figure it out, so do things carefully." Said the elder.
His words caused Matt to nod softly.
'This guy in front of is not weak. He is supposed to be one of the important forces in this operation and seems to be the leader of the Basent Organization. Despite that, they managed to infiltrate without him noticing…' Matt thought and got up to leave.
"Sir, I believe this is from you. At the ti, it was thanks to this ssage and what was I found in that basent that I discovered one of the traitors. So I must thank you." Matt said, smiling softly as he left him a small sheet of paper on the table before leaving.
The elder frowned and looked at the sheet of paper, surprised shortly after.
'Isn't this what I sent to that family ho? I even got a reply that he seed to have the traitor... Right, they died a couple of days before, so he was the one who discovered them!' He thought, but as he was about to speak to Matt, he disappeared.
A smile appeared on his old face. 'Tsk, Bloody Vampire Generals certainly are capable. Even one as young as him can already do such incredible things.' He thought and looked at his two subordinates.
"Start preparing yourselves. Things will get chaotic from now on. We may have to leave the city before long because those guys might be disturbed," Said the elder, entering the room behind him.
