Chapter 423 1 week later.
1 week later.
Matthew, Alice, and Isla ran back and forth in the Dark Kingdom during these last few days as news of Matthew and Alice spread.
The fact that they were both starting to develop a territory was enough to surprise everyone, but they didn't care.
And even though Isla wasn't doing much to help them, she stayed close by to assist them in whatever way was needed. So that's how a week of hustle and bustle and stress went by. Matt and Alice wanted to get everything ready so they could train properly and allow the territory to develop correctly, so they focused on that.
And when the busiest week Matt had ever had in this world came to an end, Matt received the subordinates he had prepared in the Main Mansion of White City. This city was the main city in this territory, so it was quite large and had a lot of people.
In front of Matt were Paul Cox and 3 other people he had brought. Ray Jowel and his wife. There were also the Businessmen he had managed to convince in the western city.
In addition to them, after several days of talking it over, there was also Reagan Cooper among Matt's guests today.
"I don't have much to say. During this week, I've been showing them around the territory, so they can get to know each other and the subordinates. From today forward, they're going to be working in different locations."
Matt pulled out various documents and placed them on the table before speaking again. "I've been studying the geography of this territory and potential business partners. I've been talking to several of them, and we've come to an agreement. It's all written down here.
I also wrote down your instructions for the short term and everything you will start doing, managing, and dealing with within these next few days."
After saying this, Matt looked at Paul Cox first.
"Mr. Paul Cox and his group will also have a task now that they will be working for me. This is a blueprint of something important to us; study it well, and then we will talk about it." Matt gave them the blueprints of that Magical Artifact he had made in the Empire. They were amazed at the level of detail it had and its complexity, but still, they began to study it immediately.
Subsequently, Matt looked at Reagan. "Professor Reagan, I know you are still not quite on board and only agreed to be the advisor, so I won't tell you to do much. I've brought in several members of Clan Allen to take over all the administration, so I'd like you to familiarize yourself with them." Matt smiled and then, after that, looked at the door.
"Old Martin, come in."
The door opened after he said this, and a person of astonishing status walked in.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Regan Cooper stood up abruptly when she saw him. "Martin Allen, The devil!?" In shock he couldn't help but say those words, but he suddenly remembered that Martin resented being called that, so he put his hands to his mouth and lowered his head slightly, but Martin laughed.
"Hahaha, it's been a long time since I've been called that. It's been a long time, Reagan Cooper, The Controller." As he laughed, Old Man Martin stepped forward and greeted Matt respectfully.
"Young Leader, don't worry. I take care of many things in the Clan, but I already spoke with Lord Gray to inform him that I would be in his territory for a while. You may return to the Academy, as classes have already started, and I will take care of everything here.
I must say that your idea in this territory is ambitious, but I, as Martin Allen, will support you without bringing the Clan into it." He had become quite respectful when Matt showed him the development idea he had for this whole territory.
It was a great idea that could make this territory a glorious place. It had been many years since anyone had surprised him in this way, so he didn't want to miss the opportunity to be a part of it. That also increased the level of respect this person felt for Matt.
In his eyes, Matthew was too good to be true. Even if he didn't have his last name, he wanted to invest in him solely because he wanted to see how far he could go.
Matt didn't care about that, but if they were that supportive, he would naturally be grateful. "Thank you, Old Martin. I'll leave you in charge then. I've already written everything down, so that should help you. Besides, I've explained enough, so you can be of help."
Reagan Cooper was still in shock to see such a remarkable person here. Martin Allen, being one of the most powerful men in the Allen Clan, was naturally well known.
He became famous for being a bloodthirsty butcher who didn't care about anything besides his Clan and himself. At some point in his life, he exterminated a rather strong clan all by himself, and that is why he was bestowed with such a tasteless nickname.
Martin Allen is only 50 years younger than the former Leader, so he has hundreds of years of experience. Still, it is known that he had decided to step aside from many things of the Clan and focus on less important things. No one knows the reasons, but after more than 100 years of not showing his face, many thought he was dead. Find your next read on empire
After all, he was a troublemaker back then; would he stop being one overnight? So many thought he was dead.
But not only was he not dead, he was still the same as the last time he was seen. He was immensely powerful, but now he didn't look as dangerous as the rumors.
He even looked like a typical kindly old man who cared about the younger generation, something that was not characteristic of him at the time.
'People can change in amazing ways.' Reagan Cooper sighed.
After a quick introduction, Matt spoke again.
"I will be at the Academy, so if my presence is needed, you can send me a message there, and I will come right over. Now, there are several topics I need to explain to you before I leave..." Subsequently, Matt began to explain to them several things regarding the territory, allies and other people nearby.
He also warned them to be careful around the members of the Vampire Prosperity Organization, as news of Matthew's current power and status had already spread far and wide.
And after hours of meetings, Matt was finally able to get rid of this problem called having a Territory to manage.
He had prepared enough development plans, and although he didn't get all the investment and business deals he wanted, he was satisfied with the outcome.
That same night, he left his own territory in the hands of Martin Allen and a bit of Reagan Cooper to return to the Academy with Alice and Isla. Although he had more to do, he wanted to see how the people he had tasked performed before he started implementing a plan on a larger scale.
Martin Allen would be his eyes there. Although that old man had been opposed to Matt being the Leader, he slowly began to see him more as one, so Matt was satisfied and trusted him for now.
Upon returning to the Academy, Alice stood before all the students to give her speech as the new Student Leader—not just as a Student Leader now but as one of the most powerful currently within the Academy.
Her nearly 40,000 power puts her among the elite, and if it weren't for the existence of an absurd Anomaly like Matthew, she would be the pinnacle of the students.
So, the respect they had for her was great. It was a well-founded respect.
Yet Matt, instead of respect, was feared. While he had done nothing to make them afraid of him, attending classes with a monster who could match or even surpass any elite teacher was too scary. Furthermore, what is the status of this monster?
The Next Leader of the most powerful Vampire Clan today!
The successor of Gray Allen!
Who wouldn't be afraid of him?
While Isla was the most normal. 20,000 power in this place wasn't too far-fetched; the Academy had several like that, though she was still among the elite of the elite, and among that elite, she was the most respected for two reasons.
The first reason was that she was too young, and the second was Matthew. She was so attached to him, and he was so accepting of her that naturally, everyone realized she belonged in Matt's Harem.
Harem to which numerous beautiful women tried to enter after this. Noble families came to Matt with marriage proposals, and even those same women sent them, although they were all rejected.
This strange situation put Matt, Alice, and Isla on the cusp of the Academy, where they had no equal within their respective categories.
Where even the teachers were a little afraid of them.
