Celestial Bloodline-Novel

Chapter 146 Learning about Arrays II

After an hour, Elder Han received a message on his communication device. He gazed at Kyle and Bia who were seriously focused on the book.

He wanted to make a lot of potions before leaving for the Central Continent but Vice Principal George called him to do another task. He looked at the bookshelves and after picking up a few more books about beginner Arrays he placed them on the table and left the secret room.

Kyle didn't leave the room because he felt the warm glow emitting from the stones embedded in the walls making his mind clearer. He studied the first book for a few hours before closing it will a serious expression.

"At first, memorizing the symbols was a little hard because they were completely different from the normal language but after reading this book I think I can understand some of the symbols."

Bia scoffed at Kyle bragging because even after focusing she didn't understand a single thing.

Kyle gazed at the other books present on the table but then his eyes landed on the piece of paper Elder Han used to draw a small array.

The circular shield present on the paper had already disappeared a long time ago because the mana present inside the stone was exhausted. He picked up the paper and stared at it for a while. The symbols drawn on the paper were slightly erased after the shield disappeared.

Kyle looked around and saw a bundle of white papers placed neatly above one of the bookshelves. He stood up and picked up some papers.

After taking a deep breath, he sat down again and picked up the pen present on the table.

'It's good Master left this pen behind.'

Even though he was a student he didn't have a pen. It was very shameful but Kyle threw the matter away.

Bia looked at Kyle before staring at the pen and Papar in his hand.

-'What are you going to do?'

"I am going to draw an Array!"

Kyle said and placed the white paper on the table. He grabbed the pen and started copying the exact symbols present on the piece of paper Elder Han used.

Bia gazed at Kyle's hand which was moving very fast.

-'What? Are you kidding me? Didn't the old man say it would take a week before you can pull it off.'

She narrowed her eyes and stared at the paper. After a few minutes, Kyle was done.

-'Hey Kyle. The symbols are slightly inaccurate. Are you sure this is going to work?'

Bia said but her eyes were fixed on the paper.

Kyle also looked at the paper. Even though he did his best and completely copied everything some symbols were too thin, unlike the original ones.

"Umm, I am trying anyway. What worse can happen? I will fail on my first try."

He said and took out a mana stone from one of his storage rings. Bia nervously gazed at the mana stone before Kyle placed it on the paper.

They waited for a few seconds but nothing happened. Bia blinked her eyes.

-'It's seemed you failed.'

Kyle nodded but then the mana stone present on the table started trembling. Bia looked at Papar with wide eyes.

-'Something happening!'

She shouted but because Kyle was having a bad feeling he instantly distanced himself from the paper. Bia gazed at Kyle.

-'What are you doi...'

Her sentence was cut short because, in the next second, the mana stone present on the paper was blasted into black smoke.

Kyle's expression darkened when he saw his first array failed so miserably. He hurriedly approached the table and waved his hand to clear the black smoke.

After the smoke disappeared. A black Bia appeared in front of him.

Kyle chuckled when he saw Bia but the latter glared at him angrily.

-'You bastard!'

Bia shouted and immediately attacked Kyle who dodged her attack.

"Wait, it was an accident!"

Kyle said but he was laughing because Bia's small round figure filled with black dust looked very funny! He avoided Bia once more and smirked.

"How about I try drawing the Array again? This time it will be a success for sure!"

Bia attacked again. This time she aimed for Kyle's hair. Kyle winced but after a while he grabbed Bia.

"Okay let's stop playing around."

He cleaned Bia and walked back to the table. After thinking for a while, Kyle again tried to draw the array but this time Bia started flying and stayed further away from his array.

He failed on the second try but was successful in his third try. After drawing the array two more times, he picked up another book and started reading.

Next day, early morning. Kyle left the secret room. The library was empty even the librarian was nowhere to be seen that's why he just picked up some books from the bookshelves related to the upcoming exam and entered the secret room again.

Meanwhile, after Kyle entered the room. One hour later, Nine and the others arrived at the Library.

Last night Nine told Alec and Carcel about the bet Kyle made but for some reason, they didn't agree. He was frustrated and tired to persuade the duo because they were getting free mana stones from Kyle but they didn't even budge.

After arriving at the library, they went to their usual spot and started reading.

Alec gazed at Nine.

"Where's Kyle?

Nine picked up a book and shrugged his shoulders. In the morning, he knocked on Kyle's door but no one answered.

"Anyway, Kyle isn't even here. He just studied for a single day. Why are you all so scared to make the bed!"

Nine said with a frown. Was he wrong to make a bet with Kyle? He didn't want to lose his precious mana stones!

After seriously thinking for a while Nine shook his head. There was no way he would lose the bet!

Alec and Carcel gazed at each other. They were tempted to agree to the bet when they didn't see Kyle in the library but they instantly threw the thought out of their minds. With the speed Kyle was flipping the book pages, they would be crazy if they agreed to the bet!
