Celestial Bloodline-Novel

Nine opened his eyes and looked at the pitch-black space around him, with nothing in sight. He rubbed his hand and clearly remembered that the last thing he did was touch Kyle's hand and activate his inherited skill. Afterward, his vision turned blurry.

'What is this place?'

His golden eyes glowed in the midst of darkness as he took a step forward. However, no matter where he looked, he saw nothing but an endless void.

Nine opened his mouth and tried to speak, but as usual, nothing cout.

'Kyle did say his fate is blank... So, this is what he meant when he said I won't be able to see anything.'

He shook his head and started walking in the darkness, waiting for the effect of the spiritual gaze to wear off. The silence was deafening, and in the darkness, he almost felt a little out of place.

However, in that moment, a spark of brightness lit up in the darkness. Nine paused and watched as a tear formed amidst the darkness. But just as it appeared, the darkness swallowed it completely.

'Huh, what's happening?'

He took a step forward, but this tan even bigger tear formed in front of him, as if someone or something was trying to forcefully enter a space they weren't supposed to.

The sound of the tear echoed through the silence, and in the next second, brightness spilled out from the tear. A figure clad in dark yet luxurious attire stepped out from the tear and stood in front of him.

Nine's eyes widened, and he staggered backward as he stared at the pair of cold, emotionless eyes gazing at him. They were familiar, yet unfamiliar at the stime. The figure's face remained expressionless as he opened his mouth.

"I have been waiting for you."

Nine knew the man in front of him was Kyle. But no matter how he looked at him, he couldn't help but feel that something was off. The way Kyle's eyes checked him from head to toe, with little to no emotions, made it seem as if he was looking at someone who had died a long tago.

Kyle stepped forward, but Nine took a step back. He didn't want to, but it happened naturally. Nine noticed that Kyle's hair was no longer silver, but instead, it had turned black. His eyes remained the sshade of green, but devoid of any emotion.

Kyle chuckled slightly, but the corners of his lips stayed downturned as he raised his hand to point his finger towards Nine's forehead.

"Don't worry, I just want you to do something for me. It was difficult forto enter this space because in your time, my body is still heavily reliant on the bloodline. So, I don't have much time."

Nine's gaze zeroed in on the finger that touched his forehead, and then his vision darkened. In the next second, Bia's angry voice entered his ears, and he jolted in surprise.

-"Ahhhhh! Nine, I'm going to throw you down in three seconds. One, two, three..."

Bia flapped her wings and glided down from the sky, trying to throw Nine away from her body. But before she could, he started floating and rubbed his forehead, which was hurting a little.

"So, that wasn't just a dream?"

Nine ignored the grumpy phoenix who wanted more food because he stayed on her back longer than expected and looked at the familiar figures floating in the distance, watching the sunrise.

His eyes landed on Alec, and he couldn't help but let out a wry smile.

'I didn't see much of what the strange version of Kyle tried to show me. It would only be unlocked when I reached the place he askedto. Still, this bastard got himself into a big mess and hasn't told anyone yet. I just hope I can complete my task on time. Otherwise, it won't be good for both Alec and the others.'

He quickly joined the others, and they all floated silently in the sky. The brightness of the new day bathed the battleground where the war had taken place.

However, after just a few minutes, Kyle watched as everyone around him left one by one. Yue went to the three kings who managed to survive the battle and started doing her part. After all, she had led her people back to the Kingdom, along with many other old elves.

Nine went to his people and asked a few old merpeople to guide all the alive people from the Sea Continent towards Coexis, where they could rest for a day before heading back to the Sea.

Alec, Carcel, Jian, Regius, Sinon, and the girls went to join Yon and the other tower's guardians. They started surveying the battleground and eliminating all the remaining individuals with black petals engraved on their bodies.

The land was stained with blood, but Kyle knew there was nothing more he needed to do. He let out a sigh and stroked Bia's head as she sat tiredly on his shoulder.

"Let's go hand get srest... I'm tired too. Ray and Neon are safe. I should ask them if they want to go back together."

Kyle floated towards the place where many humans were resting, sin uniforms and others in ordinary clothes, but all of them had their clothes stained with blood.

The people who saw him approaching gazed at him with respect and cheered his nloudly because they saw how he ran around the battlefield, killing many enemies throughout the war.

Kyle nodded at them and quickly asked Ray and Neon if they wanted to go hor if they wanted to stay back.

The duo was tired, so they flung their arms over his shoulders and asked him to carry them back home. Kyle chuckled, and in the next second, a portal materialized in front of him. Ray and Neon rolled their eyes at how easily he conjured a portal just so he wouldn't have to lift their weight.

The tentered the portal together. However, when their father saw their blood-filled clothes and unrecognizable condition, the old man freaked out and called Butler Eon to bring shealers immediately!

It took Ray a whole twenty minutes to calm the old man down, and for Kyle to slip into one of the rooms in the small buildings to finally take a long bath.
