Celestial Bloodline-Novel

Chapter 240  He is gaining strength

Kyle and the other participants quietly followed behind the Royal envoy.

They passed through the castle hallways and after a twenty-minute walk arrived outside.

Kyle looked back at the majestic gate. It was huge, maybe bigger than the one he saw in Kingdom Escalante.

The area around the castle was mostly empty and some Royal guards were patrolling around the castle walls.

Kyle looked around as he followed the Royal envoy. They passed through the empty area, heading straight toward the center of the elves' Capital city.

After a long walk, they arrived in front of a big building. Many female elves wearing beautiful clothes emerged from the building and greeted everyone with polite smiles.

The Royal envoy talked with the female elves for a minute and vanished into the city without even glancing at the kids.

Regius looked at the building with a smirk. It was the biggest in the whole capital city.

"So this is where we are going to stay for a week? Not bad."

Kyle nodded. Indeed the building looked luxurious.

The female elves politely gestured for all the kids to follow behind them. After a small tour of the hotel, Kyle got the key to his room.

He thanked the one who gave him the key and immediately went to his room because he wanted to bathe and rest. However, for some reason, his mind had a nagging feeling that something bad was going to happen. Kyle frowned as he walked through a long hallway heading straight toward his room.

"Sigh, I am probably getting too paranoid."

heading straight toward his room.

"Sigh, I am probably getting too paranoid."

He shook his head and chased the feeling away. Now was not the time to overthink. It's time to rest in a warm bed.

...

Meanwhile, outside the safe boundaries of the planet blue.

The bright projection that reflected the fate of almost every race present in the universe trembled when a large whip trashed it violently. Sparks of lightning flew everywhere and a loud click resounded in the dark space.

"Tsk, why can't I destroy it? It's a useless treasure without an owner!"

A slender hand belonging to a woman flicked the whip around a few more times. Soon, her alluring figure was revealed when she licked her paw with an evil smirk. A black three-petal flower was engraved in the middle of her forehead.

"What a pity. I failed again."

The pink ears standing at the top of her head twitched when she heard a muffled sound from below.

She laughed and looked at the majestic blue dragon whimpering under her feet with the red slits shining in her eyes. The dragon's once sleek and powerful body was littered with crimson blood. His scales that glisten like sapphires were scattered around everywhere.

"Just like the 'universe projection' this blue dragon is also stubborn. Anyway, Hay how many times it had been?"

She looked back at the man standing behind her. Unlike the women, the man didn't have any animal features. Instead, his ears were pointy just like elves.

His facial expression was twisted and the black rob on his body was completely hiding his presence within the darkness. However, just like the female a dark three-petal flower was engraved in the middle of his forehead.

"Diora you know we can't kill him because his life is connected to the universe projection. Still...."

He playfully counted on his fingers and looked at the dragon with a smirk.

"I remember, Including today you tried a total of 32 times to kill this pest."

The dragon's once bright eyes were dim and breath labored as he looked at the floating individuals with a sneer.

"Just kill me and be done with it. So, my soul can rest in the projection for a while because there is no way I am going to tell you about the empty spot."

Diora's eyes snapped and she gritted her teeth loudly.

"You are just a bug. Tell me why is master name on the second spot and why is the number one spot empty!"

She raised her hand and whipped the dragon's body until his whole body was riddled with large gashes. A pool of blood appeared below the dragon's body as he took the beating with emotionless eyes.

When the dragon breathed his last, he sighed.

'I think this time it will take me a lot of time to recover my body.'

In the next second, his majestic body scattered into tiny particles. The shimmering particles gathered together and entered the floating projection.

Diora gazed at the bright particles. She wanted to tear them apart but it was impossible for her. In the whole universe, only her master was strong enough to destroy scattered soul particles. A soul is something very fragile but after one's soul left their body not many can destroy it.

She looked at the bright projection with disgust.

"It's impossible for someone to become stronger than master in such a short time. So why is this useless thing showing that someone stronger than him has appeared?"

Hay rubbed her ears to soothe her anger.

"Diora why are you fixated with this projection? It's just a toy. Even master didn't care about it. Let's leave if you are done messing with the dragon. We have work to do."

He shuddered suddenly.

"The general is going to kill us if we are not on time!"

Diora stared at the projection. She was older that's why she knew what Hay was unaware of. This projection always portrayed truth. Now that the first name was empty that's mean someone stronger than Azazeal had appeared. This wasn't good!

However, she was confused because if someone stronger indeed appeared where was he? Was he hiding?

'No ... No... If anyone had enough power to make the universe tremble why would he hide? Maybe ... Maybe... The person whose name appeared on the top is still weak? He is gaining strength? The projection put his name on the top because he is most likely to become the strongest in the future.'

Diora's facial expression darkened a little but she laughed out loud in the next second.

"Now now... No matter the future I should report it back to the general. Maybe I will get some merits?"

She chuckled and slapped Hay's mischievous fingers that were playing with her ears.

"Let's go back. Leave the work for now. I have something more important to do."

Hay was reluctant but in the end, nodded because Diora was stronger. In the next second, both of them disappeared from the place, leaving behind the pool of blood and the shimmering projection floating between the darkness.
