Chapter 89: Good opportunity

"Alice, what did you find out about the organization that one?" he asked, causing her to finally remember why she came here and grabbed hold of him again.

"Matt, I heard you were attacked recently. Are you okay? I'm sorry. My family's members came in a few hours later and heard all about it." she said with concern.

Matt smiled, "It's nothing. They were pretty good, but one of them was a devourer, and apparently, they didn't want to attack me; they just wanted to get information out of me." he replied.

She was surprised and sat back down. "A devourer on the academy grounds?" she asked doubtfully, looking thoughtful, which interested Matt.

"Do you know anything?" he asked.

Alice nodded.

"Actually, this organization is not new. In fact, it should be more than 10,000 years old, but it is a very powerful organization made up of vampires. Our Clan Allen has always been fighting them for many years, but it's too hard to find them because they usually disappear for a while, and when they appear again, they have a different headquarters and work differently. It's strange."

"Still, we have our suspicions that they hire devourers to murder or lure their victims." She said and pulled out some papers from her storage ring.

"It's information we've found on that organization. The fact that they can hide from us makes us think that they work with humans, although there is another possibility that we don't want to think about." She spoke.

"Which one is it?" Matt asked, looking at the papers she had passed him.

"It is possible that a Vampire Clan sponsors the organization, or there could even be more." She replied.

Matt then looked up to see her.

'...A Vampire Clan supporting an organization that kills good vampires for no apparent reason... There's no way they would do that just because. They must be doing it with something in mind. They must be making some profit from it, but they don't show it, so maybe they're not an organization of hired killers if not something else...' He thought and looked at the documents again.

Several of them detailed the murder of different powerful vampires, but who were not evil, at least not by the track record they had.

There was also the murder of nobles of the Kingdom who held different positions.

"What do you say, Matt?" Alice asked carefully. Even though she was supposed to be 'Matt's leader', she wouldn't do something Matt didn't want. So, she wanted to hear his confirmation.

Matt nodded to her, "I'm also intrigued by this, and staying in the dark about things doesn't appeal to me. So okay, let's go complete those guild missions." Matt replied, causing Alice to flash a beaming smile.

"Okay, Matt!" She said happily and then looked at Isla.

"Isla, come with us. I registered under a false identity, and it looks like I have Rank B, so as long as you register and stay at Rank C or B, it will be enough to team up with me. Then we will cheat to increase the rank faster to surprise the Kingdom leaders, which will increase our value in their eyes." She said quickly.

Isla nodded with a smile, and after they all agreed, they each went to get ready, as Alice said they were leaving at once.

A while later, Alice's younger brother came to say goodbye, and shortly after, he left.

"What did your brother come for?" Matt asked as he watched this one go off into the distance, and Alice smiled.

"He's looking for a bloody mate. Apparently, he was unsuccessful this time, so I guess he'll go to the First Academy to see if he can find one." She replied, smiling.

'Looking for a bloody mate like that?' He thought with surprise, though he couldn't help but stare at Alice, specifically at the slightly exposed neck.

Every time he looked at that delicate, pretty neck, he felt something inside him burn, wanting to sink his teeth into it.

'It's the same... How strange...' He thought and unconsciously put his hand on Alice's neck.

She was startled and turned her eyes to look at him, "Matt?" she asked doubtfully, though she was stunned to see that Matt's eyes were glowing slightly as he looked at her neck.

For a moment, her heart raced.

But then Matt returned to himself and realized what he was doing, so he retracted his hand quickly.

"Sorry, it's nothing." He replied awkwardly as he entered his room once more...
