Celestial Bloodline

Chapter 52 First Floor I

After leaving the room, Kyle walked out of the hotel and stood with the students.

The moment he walked out, Bia who was with Mia flew toward him with curious eyes.

-'What were you doing.'

Her childlike voice sounded inside Kyle's head. When she woke up in the morning Kyle was nowhere to be found, she could sense he was nearby that's why she followed behind the students who were leaving the hotel.

'Nothing special, just found a rich master when I went to drink water.'

Bia looked at him with narrowed eyes, why does it feel like he just walked and found something on the way?

Nevertheless, she didn't ask more after knowing the name of the 'master' Kyle was talking about.

The busy street in front of the hotel was less lively compared to yesterday because almost all the individuals staying inside the hotels were seen walking toward the Tower with their instructors or guardians.

Compared to Kyle who was calm, all the other students of Royal Academy were chatting non-stop with each other. Some were excited while some were nervous.

As usual, Alec and his team stood at a side talking to each other. Kyle wanted to go toward them but he was already feeling exhausted after dealing with Elder Han.

He sighed and turned around to look at Nine who was standing beside him with an irritated expression. His calm expression was nowhere to be seen.

"Can you stop mumbling?"

Nine have been mumbling non-stop while looking at the surroundings.

"Bro, I am too nervous. See I am getting goosebumps looking at the Tower."

Kyle looked away not wanting to talk anymore. Did you call them goosebumps? You are clearly the most excited one in the crowd!

Soon, Vice Principal George appeared in front of the students. Elder Han was also standing beside him but for some reason, he was wearing a pleasant smile on his face.

Checking the students one last time, Vice Principal George started walking at the front while everyone followed behind him.

After walking for almost fifteen minutes they left the city area and stepped inside the large empty ground around the Tower, the other individuals from Kingdom Escalante also arrived shortly.

Vice Principal George talked with the guardians and Professors leading the other groups before asking them to assemble all the 100 young people entering the tower in rows.

Kyle gazed at the ground under his feet, it was scorched black with zero plant life.

The Tower was also emitting a faint purple hue, making the atmosphere around the Tower gloomy but instead of giving off an eerie and dark feeling the purple hue was soothing to look at.

He also looked at the other races and humans standing in large groups.

Except for their Kingdom, four more groups of people were standing around the Tower. They were from other Kingdoms present inside the East Continent.

The East Continent contain five Kingdoms that's why a total of 500 people were going to enter the Tower.

Among the Five Kingdoms,

Kingdom Escalante, Kingdom Whiteland and Kingdom Loringnad were human kingdoms.

Kingdom Tersia belonged to elves and lastly, Kindom Hoekan belonged to demihumans who were half human and half animal.

Nine who was standing beside Kyle also looked at the ominous ground with narrowed eyes.

"Why does the Tower look so creepy, even the ground is pitch black devoid of any life."

Kyle saw him mumbling again and shook his head, the ground was probably black because the Tower needed a huge amount of energy to operate and it seemed to be absorbing some from the surrounding.

After a while all the five kingdoms assembled their students in rows, Kyle could guess that standing in the front row were Royals because they were wearing luxury clothes.

The ones wearing simple clothes were standing at the back.

All the older individuals stood in front of the younger ones. Suddenly, two old men from each group started flying toward the Tower.

From Kingdom Escalante, Vive Principal George and Elder Han both also flew toward the old men gathering in the middle.

They discussed something before Vice Principal George flew back and looked at the 100 individuals belonging to Kingdom Escalante.

He spoke with a gaze filled with seriousness, telling everyone to be caution and careful.

For the next six months, no one would be able to help or protect them inside the Tower. Everything will depend on their own capabilities.

Vice Principal George knew that inside the Tower causalities were inevitable but still the minimum the better.

While speaking his gaze suddenly landed on the bird sitting on top of Kyle's head and he frowned.

"Kyle, you can't bring pets inside. Leave the bird behind."

All the people standing in front and the back started staring at Kyle like he was an idiot.

Kyle was at a loss for words. He wasn't sure why but he felt like if now he said the bird sitting on top of his head was a Phoenix everyone would start laughing.

There was no way anyone would believe that a bird looking like a ball of fur was a Phoenix.

Even he himself was suspicious of the 'bird'. Thinking maybe accidentally the egg was changed.

On the other hand, Bia become furious she wanted to go and fight with the Vice Principal but sensing his rank, she just humped and turn around.

Kyle sighed and spoke politely.

"Sir, it's bonded to me."

Vice Principal George looked at Bia with narrowed eyes seemingly trying to probe if Kyle was telling the truth but soon his narrowed eyes relaxed and a surprise expression appeared on his face.

'Now that I am looking at it closely it's emitting a faint hue. It's really a bounded beast. I wonder where he found such a strange beast?'

He nodded at Kyle with understanding before looking at Elder Han and the other four array masters flying not so far from the group.

All the five array masters took out a strange purple stone and started flying in different directions.

They put the stone inside the circular openings present around the Tower and started drawing some weird designs in the air.

Soon, faint black clouds formed around the Tower. It didn't go toward the Elders who were standing in front of kids nor did it touch any other individual.

The faint clouds approached the Five hundred kids standing in rows and a familiar feeling of dizziness enveloped their senses before they turned into hundreds of white particles and disappeared.

.....

Kyle opened his eyes and looked at the unfamiliar surroundings.

Clean air filled with dense mana entered his nose and mouth making him feel refreshed.

He was inside a lush green forest, a far contrast to the city surrounding the Tower.

Bia also appeared beside him shortly with a curious expression. She started flying, looking at her surroundings.

Kyle looked around only to see long large towering trees standing proudly everywhere. Even the grass around him was tall, touching the knees of his legs.

He could also hear the faint sounds of a waterfall not so far from his location.

'At last, I am here.'

It was the first floor of the Tower, also the largest floor.

Even after looking around for a while the only thing Kyle could see were hundreds of trees.

He tried to climb one to better understand his surroundings but the nail-sized spikes around the tree truck were too sharp.

Kyle took out his sword from the storage ring in case of emergency and started following the voice of the waterfall.

Meanwhile, similar to Kyle others also appeared inside the first floor at different locations. Some appeared in the mountains, some inside the forest while some unlucky ones encountered monsters the moment they appeared.
