Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!

Chapter 277: Welcome Ceremony (1)



In fact, it wasn't just Matt who hadn't noticed. Even Will Jones hadn't noticed. Alice disappeared from where they were without giving him a response to his proposal, which was a more than obvious response.

She was basically showing him that she didn't care about his proposal with this.

Matt looked at her doubtfully, and that's when Alice returned to her senses.

'Huh?' She gently let go of Matt, unable to comprehend how she had gotten here, and all the pressure Janna Patel felt suddenly disappeared.

'I moved unconsciously...' She thought. She immediately planned to apologize, as it was not what she wanted to do. She even tilted her face a little to apologize sincerely to Matt.

But before she could finish, Matt intertwined his hand with hers, brought her towards him, and smiled at Janna Patel.

"I'm sorry, Miss Patel. I already have a date for tonight. I won't refuse to toast with you on the night if we are lucky enough to meet."

Her words surprised Janna and Alice, but Janna nodded normally. She had seen several things in a moment and, with her intelligence, could understand several things, so she didn't get in the way of either of them.

Matt then looked at Professor Robert. "Professor, we will be leaving."

Robert nodded towards both of them. "You may return; I have nothing more to say. Congratulations on reaching a milestone as good as that; I expect great things from you two," he replied.

Matt then pulled Alice with him and left the scene.

Will Jones was embarrassed and angry, so he left with an angry face shortly after.

.

Matt and Alice walked around the campus hand in hand, while Alice was stunned.

"I'm... I'm sorry, Matt. I didn't mean to interrupt you." She replied as she lowered her head.

Matt turned to look at her and smiled. He immediately raised his other hand and softly stroked her face to lift her head.

"What are you apologizing for? You are well within your rights to do so. I didn't want to dance with her either, and you came along to give me an excuse to get out of there. But what did you say to that guy? He basically asked you to go with him on the night."

Alice cocked her head. "That guy?" For a moment, she frowned, trying to remember who he was referring to.

It was then that she remembered that a person had asked her that, but it was at a very bad time to do so, for it was just the moment Janna Patel's voice caught her attention.

"Ah..." She felt embarrassed after thinking about that.

"...I didn't answer him. I forgot."

Matt was surprised by this and laughed out loud. "Hahahahaha..."

Somehow, that made Alice feel more embarrassed, but they soon returned to the room.

Then, they began to dress up for the occasion.

For the rest of the day, Alice was a little confused but happy. She didn't even know how she should feel about today, but the fact that Matt had said she was his date for the night felt great.

If she thought about it, it made a lot of sense. Why would Matt choose someone else to attend the Ceremony if he had Alice nearby? She's just like him in everything and knows his real identity, plus they travel together and are a Bloody Couple. But somehow, her confidence had diminished a bit because of what happened a few days ago.

It wasn't confidence in herself but confidence in attracting Matt's attention.

But this gave her some confidence back, although she would still stay away from Matt as much as she could to avoid giving him any more trouble.

So, the night came.

Matt didn't need to spend much time preparing, but it took Alice most of the day.

Right now, Matt was standing behind Alice to disguise her face.

She had put on a beautiful, elegant red dress with gold trimmings. She had bought it in the City for this occasion, so she would wear it.

The dress looked perfect on her.

Soon, Matt started. After that, she put on some makeup, and both went out together.

They were glowing today. Matt was wearing a gray and red suit.

But today, the focus was on Alice, or 'Aelia,' as she looked glowing and beautiful. Even when they were already inside the ceremony venue, she still stood out from the others.

The Ceremony began with several top students from the Outer Academy speaking about various topics that could help the newcomers.

Afterward, the two most hyped people in the room, the Alignment Members, appeared on Stage and gave some motivational words.

Being so respected, everyone looked their way.

They were dressed smartly and carrying two beautiful women, so naturally, they attracted quite a lot of attention.

And after speaking for a full 10 minutes, they were applauded and walked off the stage.

It was then that the real Ceremony began.

When five very high-status people appeared, everyone had to stop what they were doing.

A middle-aged man, the Founder, was leading those people.

Among those people, the one who attracted the most attention was the woman who was one step behind him.

"It's the Great Summoner..."

"As the rumors say, she is stunningly beautiful..."

"That older woman's aura, along with those glasses... She really is stunning."

"Look, there's a spirit flying beside her..."

Being the most famous woman in the Academy for her beauty and summoning ability, the Great Summoner quickly attracted the attention of everyone present.

Even Matt couldn't help but look at her and sigh a little.

'God, this woman is really amazing. Not only is her face beautiful, but even her body is amazing, and she knows how to show it off.'

Though the spirit flying around her was the most amazing thing.

It was a small spirit, but Matt could notice an amazing, almost imperceptible aura coming off the spirit and surrounding that beautiful woman.

'If I had to fight her..." Matt tried to think of that possibility when suddenly their eyes met for a brief moment.

In that instant Matt could feel what would happen if the two were to face each other.

'In an open field, I lose. I'd have to find a closed place.' He thought.
