Chapter 134: A powerful Elder

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, remembering 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 piecemeal, one at a time.

'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 some 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.

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 something else.

"It seems you have something else to tell me, 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 movement 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 me is not weak. He is supposed to be one of the important forces in this operation and seems to be the leader of the Basement 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 time, it was thanks to this message and what was I found in that basement 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 home? I even got a reply that he seemed 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.
