Celestial Bloodline-Novel

Kyle jolted when Nesis materialized beside him. The man gazed at him and hummed.

"Did you recognize this place."

Kyle looked at the woman, the old healer checking the baby, his father's familiar figure standing behind the woman. He then glanced at the two familiar kids peeking from behind the room door, and his expression softened.

Nesis tapped his shoulder and pointed at the baby draped in a soft fabric.

"It's you, the time when you were born. Did your father never tell you that you didn't cry when you were born, nor did you move for a long time? The only thing that kept the couple going was that you were breathing and your heart was beating."

Kyle looked away from the woman. It's been a while since he saw his mother, but he knew she had gone to a better place. So, he focused his gaze on Nesis.

"I believe we're not here just to watch all this."

Nesis nodded.

"You're unresponsive because you possess the celestial bloodline. It's something that naturally belongs to you, a power that ignited within you the moment you were born. However, your body was too weak to contain it, that's why your life force was slipping away with each passing second. The healer is not even strong enough to fight a true monster, how could he understand what's wrong with you?"

Kyle kept his gaze fixed on the man. The realization that the bloodline naturally belongs to him brought a faint smile on his face.

"It's good that I didn't inherit the bloodline from the ice enchantress or anyone else. It's good that it is mine... Now I don't have to worry about someone coming and demanding it back or making me work for them in exchange for the power they gave me."

Nesis noticed the faint smile forming at the corner of the human's lips. He narrowed his eyes in contemplation upon hearing the name 'ice enchantress'.

"The ice enchantress... I'm not really sure who she is, but when I got my first contractor, I did hear her name a few times. Ah... now it all makes sense. That's why I felt traces of another power in your body and why you survived after birth."

Kyle's face, which had a faint smile, quickly turned solemn. So, the moment he had been dreading had finally arrived. The dark history of his ancestors.Follow current novelenglish.net . s on novelenglish.net . Fɪre.nᴇt

'After today, I am going to pretend I don't know the ice enchantress. I don't want her tragic love story to haunt me or my family.'

Nesis continued to explain about the other power within his body, and the more Kyle listened, the more his expression grew downcast.

Kyle glanced at his father and massaged his temples. So, basically, every descendant of the ice enchantress carried a trace of her inheritance within them. But the power remained dormant because it was too small.

That woman made sure to scatter her unique power everywhere, so if a strong individual ever emerged from her descendants, they would be compelled to right the wrong she did.

'How cunning...'

He didn't even feel a bit grateful towards the woman and looked at Nesis with a deadpan expression.

"You mean, I would have died after birth, but before I lost my breath, the celestial essence inside me forced the dormant 'nail-sized' power of the ice enchantress that I inherited from my family to awaken?"

"Then, the bloodline consumed the nail-sized power to lock itself within me. It also forcefully increased my luck stat so I could survive."

Nesis's eyebrow twitched violently when he heard the words 'nail-sized'. He so badly wanted to confront the human because, even though it was nail-sized, it possessed incredible strength! But he managed to control himself. After all, he needs to distance himself from this human as much as possible and as soon as possible.

"Let's continue."

He waved his hand and the scenery in front of them changed.

Kyle frowned as he watched his younger self leave the house with Neon after their father asked them to play outside. He remembered that during this time, his father's condition wasn't good because his mother had just passed away.

He stared at the two kids, one young and the other a little older, who stood in front of their house. Neon wanted to go to his favorite weapon shop. However, Kyle stopped midway and insisted on going to the park in front of their house. Just because he felt like playing there.

Neon agreed with a groan, but sighed when many little kids surrounded them at the park. He left Kyle there and went back home to check on their father.

Kyle watched as Sen and a few more kids around his age started picking on him in the park for no reason.

"I know what happened next... It was the time when that man with the golden pupil appeared and made me swallow something strange. The same man I saw in the projections you showed me. You know, my memories aren't blurry, so there's no need to watch all this."

Kyle glanced at Nesis, who pointed to another scenario. The same shop where he and Neon were originally supposed to go appeared in front of him. He watched as the shop crumbled into dust because a fight broke out between two adults. The duo was strong enough to destroy many buildings, and a lot of nearby people died.

"Huh...?"

Kyle blinked because he had no idea something like this happened. After all, he was bedridden for a few days due to the high fever he contracted the moment he returned home.

His breath turned uneven as he watched many familiar scenarios where he would just change his mind to avoid dangerous events. He couldn't believe his whole life was filled with so much danger, and he had no idea about all of it.

Nesis changed the scenes in front of him from time to time so the human could see how the essence inside him had been protecting him, even after knowing that his fate was blank.
