Celestial Bloodline

Chapter 272 How And Why We Are Here

Kyle's hairline was dyed with sweat as he panted heavily while sitting on a tree trunk. Countless dead bodies were lying on the ground, demonstrating a bloody sight.

However, amidst all, Kyle's clothes were clean, devoid of even a stain of blood. No, it's not because he was too careful it's because he changed his shirt again.

Bia was sprawled on his stomach with a blank expression, her chest was heaving up and down in a fast movement. She really outdid herself. A sudden thought appeared in her mind.

-'I am so powerful? As a (C+)-Rank 'divine' phoneix, I killed 1000 (C+)-Rank monsters! Unbelievable!'

Kyle narrowed his eyes and had an urge to grab her body and throw her down. He killed more than 700 (C+)-Rank monsters and now she was taking the credit!

"Shameless..."

His murmur was quiet but a certain bird was too close, she heard his words and gave him a snicker.

As if finally noticing something, Kyle grabbed her by her neck with a serious expression.

"Wait... You are a divine beast? The voice also said divine. That means it's true."

Bia didn't have any energy to bicker with him regarding how he picked her up and just gave him a smug expression.

-'It's seemed you finally know how majestic I am.'

Kyle smirked, of course, he was happy at the fact that she just increased her status from ordinary to divine. He wasn't sure yet but he had a nagging feeling Bia could reach the divine rank in the future. Doesn't that mean she can go past the limit of mortality and follow him when he becomes a true immortal? Kyle blinked at his thoughts. When did he become so confident?

'I am not even (S)-Rank and here I am imagining being an immortal.'

He shook his head with a sigh. The future was unpredictable and no one could guess what was waiting for him.

Bia saw the rapid change in Kyle's expression, she clicked her tongue and wriggled out from his grip with a hiss.

-'We are done with the goal but the mechanical voice didn't return. What now?'

Kyle's thoughts were disturbed due to her sudden question. He looked at the sky with a serious expression.

"I don't know. The voice only said we need to pass the entrance test to gain the right to fight for the Vails of divine essence."

After resting for an hour, he carefully jumped off the tree. As usual, Bia sat down on his head and both of them decided to go deeper into the trees because the mechanical voice never returned.

Kyle held his sword in his hand and started walking. They passed through many thick tall trees and to their surprise the place they passed from was devoid of any living being. A deadly silence envelope their surrounding.

After half an hour, Kyle activated the skill 'swift steps' and increased his speed. He dashed between the trees while looking around to find something, anything.

Bia flapped her wings and started flying above his head but the image behind the tall trees remained blurry.

The time tickled by fast but even after many hours, the duo didn't find anything. In the end, Kyle climbed a tree to sleep.

The sky was burning brightly above their heads, but Night never arrived. Still, he closed his eyes to sleep for a while.

Bia gazed at his sleeping figure and quietly landed beside him to keep an eye on the surroundings. She wasn't drowsy but for some reason after a few minutes, her eyelids fluttered shut.

A loud strained shout jolted her awake, Bia snapped her eyes open and got a heart attack when she saw Kyle holding the jaw of a huge, towering monster.

The monster's head was round and large with four short legs below his huge furry belly.

Her eyes trembled when she looked at Kyle. His shirt was drenched in blood. How? Kyle was so strong but the strange monster injured him so much! Her question was answered soon when the monster's body released a heavy, suffocating pressure.

Bia choked on her breath. A (S)-Rank monster! Her body trembled due to the pressure and she finally registered that they were not in the same place anymore.

The trees around them were nowhere to be seen. Instead, they were present atop a large white stage. The monster's deep blue eyes flickered with rage and it thrashed one of its paws forward to hack Kyle into pieces.

-'What happened!?'

Bia cried out in Kyle's mind and flapped her wings to fly. Her round eyes flashed with a deep glow and in the next second, golden flames descended on the monster's body with a maddening pace.

Kyle gazed back with hazy eyes.

"Oh...You are awake. Ugh"

He used every ounce of strength and pushed the towering monster away. Just like the golden flames, blue icy flames surged out from his body, they enclosed the monster who cried out in anger. However, it was evident their flames were not working.

Bia's golden flames only left some minor injuries on the monster's body and even though Kyle's icy flames froze its body parts the monster would get rid of the ice.

Kyle cursed loudly as he dodged another attack from the monster.

'Why the heck are my flames not working? I injured someone with (A)-Rank strength before so easily but it's not working on this thing... Is it because the strength difference between us is too huge?'

Bia's panicked voice echoed in his head again and again, it made Kyle dizzy.

He rolled back and started running around the stage to avoid the monster for a few seconds, but his speed was too low!

Only after a second, the monster jumped at him with a loud growl. Kyle gritted his teeth, the white stage was painted red with his blood. He grabbed his sword and swung it vertically at the monster.

"I don't know how and why we are here! The moment I opened my eyes I found this monster drooling on my body. Just a few more seconds and I would have been a goner."

Bia suddenly recalled how she wasn't supposed to sleep and watch over Kyle. So how the hell did she fall asleep?
