Even so, the time it took Matt to make this attack was enough for the two men in front of him to move quickly towards him and attack him with force.
Matt was hit with a powerful impact that slammed him into one of the nearby walls.
"Matthew Dietrich, hand over the bloody treasure, and you can die without pain!" shouted the other as he followed close behind him to punch him hard in the stomach and slam him even harder into the wall.
Still, Matt then reached up and took the guy's punch with his fist.
'That strong?' The man wondered in shock but tried to hit him with his other fist.
Still, Matt had already gotten to his feet after being slammed against the wall, so he smiled.
"Very weak." He said and held that fist tightly.
At the same time, he squeezed it tightly when he said, "Icy Destruction." His words carried a terrifying coldness.
And for some reason, the man attacking him felt his arm, heart, and brain freeze for an instant.
Just then, Matt clenched his fist lightly...
Then, the man's arm shattered into pieces as if it were a chunk of ice falling to the ground.
"AGHHHHHHH!" The intense pain made him scream, and his other punch slowed his power considerably; when it hit Matt, it was only a tiny baby-like blow, and the man fell to the ground.
'What... What just happened?' He thought in a terrified manner, feeling that terrifying pain girdling over his arm...
For a moment, he felt like everything inside his body had frozen, and the terrifying pain of his arm being destroyed to the bone gave him the feeling as if that very thing was going to happen to his body, so he quickly looked down at his arm.
'What the...' He thought in shock when he realized his arm was gone.
Matt then kicked him in the chest, which forcefully pushed him to fall to the ground.
At the same time, he disappeared from where he was and appeared behind the man who had hit him a short while ago.
This man did not expect that and soon felt an extremely cold hand holding him by the head...
Soon, he felt a terrifying cold permeate his brain, and in an instant, he fell unconscious on the ground, unable to utter a single sound of anguish or pain.
It was a pain so terrifying that it made him pee on top.
So, Matt had to silence him and then look at the ice he had removed from his body.
The ice was its standard color, but inside was something frozen. It was a red color with transparency, but it wasn't blood.
'Vampiric power...' Matt thought as he stared at this.
What was frozen was vampiric power itself. Matt wanted to check if he could become strong using a particular method he had used on Earth.
Back then, he would freeze the inner power in humans and could absorb it as his own power. That is, he absorbed the mana, and a part of that mana became his power, drastically increasing his strength.
But is it the same with vampiric power?
It's a doubt that has been hanging over his head since he got here, and today, he finally has the chance to find out.
If, for some reason, it were possible...
His power would skyrocket enormously.
But the more he looked at it, the more disappointed he felt.
'What a disgrace! I can't seem to do it.' He thought, shaking his head.
Still, just as he was thinking like that, he felt something inside his body throbbing intensely, which made him slightly unsettled.
'What?' He thought as he felt his heart racing slightly, and a slight feeling came to his mind at that very moment...
This feeling seemed to tell him he could do that without using his icy power.
'What is this feeling? And why do I feel like I'm not ready for it yet?' thought Matt.
His heart began to pound even more.
The more he looked at the frozen vampiric power, the more apparent the feeling in his heart became. It was as if it was telling him that he had nothing to worry about; sooner or later, he could do it.
'It could be...' He thought at that moment, realizing something...
