Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!

The Spiritual Academy was strategically placed to have the best views of the entire city and much of the mountain. This city\'s architecture and natural beauty were incredible.

Matt and Alice were amazed at how beautiful it was. Still, they had no time to dwell.

Both rented a house in the lower areas of the city and subsequently locked themselves in there.

Matt was going to investigate further what he had discovered about the Hexagon Item and see what they could do.

The problem was that they were short on time because the Academy registrations would start shortly.

All they had was a month to prepare before enrollment.

If the research paid off, they could enroll in that Academy and expand their repertoire of attacks, so Matt spent all his time researching.

Researching these items takes time, as Matt needs to test many things to understand them. Thus, the days began to pass under Matt\'s intense research.

As the days went by, the research was bearing fruit.

The hexagonal items are not just any items. They are actually Magical Artifacts of the Container-Receiver type.

These items allow people who shouldn\'t be able to use magic to use it. The fact that they were artifacts and not just any standard item was already a surprise to Matt, but when he realized that they were of the Container type, he realized that they could be more amazing than he thought.

Magical Artifacts on Earth were items that big monsters dropped, and there are many types. The Container type could contain Magic and Mana, so it could be used to make large-scale attacks without having the necessary power. It was commonly used as a surprise tool.

But when you mix the Container and Receiver types, you create a great item that can contain mana, receive it, and cast it according to the wearer\'s taste.

It\'s like that time while fighting Gabriel Becker. He made the item float by activating a function; what the item was doing at that time was absorbing the surrounding mana in the world and casting various kinds of enhancements and powers towards the nearby undead, which were its creations through the necromancer magic it had.

But such magic had already dissipated. In fact, only one of the several items he had still had necromancer magic. In the rest, it had dissipated, and it makes sense. It is not an item to store magic but to temporarily contain it until it is used.

Eventually, it needs to be recharged, and that\'s what makes it extraordinary, precisely because that\'s why Matt and Alice can use it.

Magical artifacts, by default, can absorb the surrounding mana. Meanwhile, container-type artifacts are basically \'bodies\'. As long as they have mana, they can exert magic; if they don\'t, they can absorb it. However, being of the receiver type, they can also contain and exert magic simultaneously.

\'That\'s the best combination of Magic Artifact types I\'ve seen so far...\' Matt thought as he realized all this and smiled.

Then he stood up abruptly and looked towards the corner of the room, where Alice was looking up at the sky.

She noticed the movement, so she turned to look at it.

"Alice, I\'ve got it. We can exert Magic using these things. I don\'t know how the Spirit Magic they use works, but I\'m absolutely sure we can wield it when we learn it."

Alice stood up in shock. "Are you sure, Matt?" she asked, approaching quickly.

Matt nodded. "Come, I\'ll show you how you should use it. Actually, it\'s not hard to do. See, these Magic Artifacts are of the Container-Receiver type; they are used to..." Matt then began to tell her everything he had discovered.

He also taught her how they were used and other basic stuff.

"I\'m not too far along in the research yet, so I\'m not sure what the power limit is, but I have a feeling this item can be upgraded. I think I can join the hexagonal items into one to allow us to be more versatile with them."

"Join the items together? Do you know blacksmithing?" She asked in confusion, and he nodded.

"Just a little bit. Magic artifact smithing is special and different; it doesn\'t really take much more than the other parts of the magic artifact to put them together. Currently, we have four hexagonal items and one magic ball. All five items belong to the same category, and it seems that they can be joined together, but I still don\'t understand how.

We must investigate further." He said and looked at her, smiling softly.

She looked back at him, a little confused, until it dawned on her. "Do you want to use the experimental rooms they have at the Spirit Academy? Apparently, they\'re used to create Magical Artifacts..."

Matt nodded. "That\'s right. That\'s why we need to get into that Academy. Those experimental rooms I want to use, I have an idea of what they\'re for, but I want to see them for myself. If we can get there, maybe I can figure out how to put these items together and form a more powerful one." He replied.

Alice nodded. "I see... I have nothing to say, Matt. As long as we can get into the Academy, we\'ll do as you wish." She replied, and they went back to learn more about the items.

They took several days to learn how to use them and did a few basic tests. For the first time, Alice could feel the mana and use it. She even managed to do basic attacks with it. Although she could not sense the surrounding mana, she could sense it inside the item.

But she had a problem. She could only use one item at a time, and while it was good enough to amaze her, it didn\'t seem as impactful as Matt, who could use them all at once.

As he tried to figure out why, Matt realized it was because of the difference in mind strengthening and his own internal power control.

But for now, she was good enough to enter the Spirit Academy. So, they trained for the rest of the days to improve their use of these items, and at the end of the month, it was time to enroll in this Academy.
