Celestial Bloodline

Meanwhile, after running past the two strange cat man. Kyle appeared in front of a familiar wolf pack.

He kicked his back foot and without caring about the spikes, he jumped toward one of the nearby trees.

"Ugh."

It was painful as blood trickled down from his palms but still, Kyle grabbed one of the tree branches and propelled himself toward another tree.

The wolf howled at Kyle but before they could attack, the huge Scorpio appeared and attacked one of the wolves.

All the wolf's looked at the Scorpio with horror, they hurriedly started retreating but because there were too many wolves in the Scorpio way, it started attacking the wolves.

While the Scorpio attacked the wolf, Kyle didn't stop running.

He could hear sounds of battle behind him but Kyle knew not to waste his escape chance.

Only after running for more than an hour and making sure no one was behind him did Kyle stop.

He looked at the sky and sighed. Dark clouds were gathering, indicating the end of the day.

Such a tiring day, after thinking about all the things he experience today Kyle chuckled.

Never in his dream, he would have thought to experience a life and death battle. Also, seeing himself improve so much he was feeling a little strange.

After lighting a small fire with mana Kyle sat beside a tree to rest, Bia also flew toward him with a guilty expression.

Kyle gazed at her a little angry but then he sighed again.

According to Bia, she indeed know a lot of skills because of the memories the Phoenix left behind but she can't use them immediately.

It will take her some time to master those skills. Anyway, In the end she was just a few months old. Just like a newborn child, she has to learn a lot of things.

Taking out two mana fruits he stole from the wolves, Kyle threw one toward Bia and started eating the other.

The moment Kyle bit the golden mana fruit huge amount of mana gushed inside his body like a dam and within seconds all his depleted mana recovered.

He also felt a warm feeling coursing through his body, with a surprised expression Kyle hurriedly looked at his stats.

Stats:

Name: Kyle

Bloodline: Celestial (Locked)

Rank: -E

Strength: E

Mana: E

Agility: +F

Talent: SS Rank (suppressed)

Luck: A

.....

His mana stat increased! Just by taking a single bite. With a delighted expression, Kyle hurriedly ate the whole fruit but his expression soon changed because after the first few bites the fruit stopped showing results.

'It seems these fruits can't improve my mana stat anymore.'

After eating the whole fruit, Kyle looked at the dark sky. The surrounding temperature decreased a little making the wind cold. Some shiny stars were illuminating the dark sky.

'I don't know where to find the 'Elixir of life'. The Tower is huge, making it difficult to search for the Elixir but it's not impossible. I should avoid all the black cross marks and check as much as golden cross marks.'

Thinking about what he had to do Kyle stood up and patted his slightly tattered clothes.

There was no way he was going to sleep in such a dirty condition. Also, sleeping without preparation inside a forest filled with monsters wasn't safe at all.

So after changing clothes, he and Bia both started looking for a safe place to rest for tonight.

Soon they discovered a large tree that expanded several meters in width, ignoring the spikes Kyle climbed the tree and after reaching the top, he scratched away some spikes with his sword. Making a small comfortable spot for himself.

Today was a very tiring day that's why the moment Kyle closed his eyes he fell asleep. Bia also sat on top of his chest like a ball but she just closed her eyes and didn't sleep because their location was dangerous.

...

Next day, early morning. Both Kyle and Bia woke up and started looking for treasures according to the map.

A week passed just like that, they avoided all the black cross marks like a plague so as to not encounter a high-rank monster like the black Scorpio.

On the way, they also saw a few low-rank monsters but all of them were weak that's why dealing with them was very easy.

For some reason, the lazy Bia also started practicing her skills making Kyle surprised.

While looking for the location of the golden cross marks, Kyle found a few more things but all of them were herbs of different origins.

He also found some more fruits but the color of each fruit was different. Fortunately, Bia knew about them so he just placed the fruits inside his storage ring for future use.

Even after plundering more than 8 golden cross marks he still didn't find the Elixir of life that's why Kyle was a little frustrated.

But after thinking that it was only the first floor he calmed down.

He also didn't encounter any other person except for the two strange cat man he saw a week ago.

And just like that a bird and a man plunder almost all the treasure around them, but they were still not happy.

If someone else saw the amount of treasure Kyle collected their jaw would probably drop. Finding one or two treasures on the first floor was fine but finding so many was unheard of.

.....

On the other hand, after appearing inside the Tower Alec fought alone. Unlike Kyle, he didn't appear inside the forest. He appeared at the edge of a mountain.

There were trees at the end of the mountain but the trees didn't contain any spikes making it easy for Alec to rest at night.

He killed a lot of monsters and increased his stat a little but unfortunately, he didn't stumble upon any treasure or skill core.

After fighting for a week, he finally encounter a fellow human but he didn't know who it was. So, after helping each other for a while they parted ways.

Lara and Mia both were also doing great, they were long-range fighters that's why they didn't have to go near the monster. They did face some difficulty but after a while, both of them adjusted to their new environment.

On the other hand, Carcel appeared almost at the back side of one of the mountains. He fought some monsters and also obtained a skill core! With incredible luck, he also found a treasure making his journey around the first floor quite fruitful.
