Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!

Chapter 500 The Forbidden Library, The Academic World (5)

he couldn't help but grab her in his arms for a moment and give her a soft kiss on the forehead. "you still have the same expression when you sleep. you've gotten so much younger, though. how curious," he said, smiling softly. he carried her and laid her down comfortably in one spot.

afterward, he stood up and grabbed the book.

he looked at the last words of the book.

'five million years ago was this, but this man claims to have seen her. it seems that, although the mystery deepens, i am not far from understanding it.'

after that, he closed the book and started reading more history books while waiting for isla to wake up. she might spend quite a while in that state, as she might have remembered too much information all at once when reading her old name.

...

"gray. you didn't tell me that, and don't look surprised despite what you just saw." murphy spoke as they both read some history books.

gray looked up to look at him. "what is it?" he asked, smiling.

"don't play dumb."

"hahaha, old friend, why bother to know? it's enough to know he's one of them and on our side. that assures us of a future victory."

murphy sighed and shook his head. "i understand that, but do you understand who he is? the heir! a dietrich heir! don't you know what it means?"

"you do?" gray asked, changing to a serious expression.

murphy looked choked up momentarily at this answer and shook his head. "i can't even imagine it."

gray nodded. "yes, i can't imagine it either. a dietrich heir. according to the few records left in the clans, the only ones considered dietrich's heirs are the children of the great leader of the dietrich. that man who destroyed the sun. even i cannot fathom the magnitude of that status and power."

gray was surprised. "right, you guys belonged to one of those clans from the past. interesting. this man really could have lived millions of years. i can't even fathom this concept."

soon, they were both immersed in reading about it and learning several exciting things.

matthew had already read it, and because that story shares themes with isla, that information was now on his mind.

'i feel as if my amnesia is not because of there being a blockage there but rather because of the number of millions of years that have passed since then. i have yet to know how i got to this era, although i believe i was frozen in that place. i will have to visit it to confirm it. but, maybe being frozen for so long has caused this amnesia.' he thought and sighed.

after seeing that they had finished reading the book, matthew closed the one he was reading. "come on, let's go look up some information on curses, " he said and started walking to another side of the library.

in this place, there were only books and more books. there were so many that it could make anyone who wasn't used to it dizzy, but they moved nimbly through the place, through what seemed to be a maze of book shelves, until they reached a section where there was a lot of generalized information about different things.

'according to my memories, there should be information on curses here...' matthew glanced around; he could see several books that uncovered his curiosity.

among those, there was one that had several copies.

no, it was not just one. it was 3 books, different from each other, with different names that didn't seem to connect.

but somehow... they all felt attracted to those 3 books.

maybe it was because the entire bookshelf they were on only had copies of those 3 books.

there were exactly 80 copies of each of the 3 books.

their names were appealing.

the first one was called: the father of power.

the second: the broad behind the 150,000 barrier: the first step.

the third: a little trick behind everything: curses.
