Celestial Bloodline
chapter-203

While the students stepped on a path to start a new journey, the atmosphere around the elf's village where Alec and the group of students crashed after they safely left the enemy base was very different.

In the village, the calm old elves who always basked under the sunlight and walked on the uneven roads to spend their peaceful days were trembling due to the sudden harsh winter that appeared out of nowhere.

They were all shocked because there had never been a time such a cold winter appeared in their village.

Heck, the intense sun was burning on their heads so why was it so cold?

However, no one was able to answer these questions. In the end, two of the courageous old elves decided to go deep into the forest and investigate the reason behind the cold.

They both went into the forest with arrogance, ready to face everything that appeared in their path to disclose the mystery behind the sudden low temperature.

The other old elves stood behind and looked at their departing figures with solemn expressions.

The grandma who tried to make Blane his adopted son squinted her eyes at the departing figures.

Just a few days ago she received a letter from her grandson, he was coming back within a few months to meet her because afterward, he would be busy as he had to enter the strange selection process happening all over the Kingdom.

She looked at her husband with a serious expression.

"Dynn, make sure the temperature returns to normal before my grandson comes back or else you are sleeping on the floor."

Dynn looked at his wife and blinked his eyes.

'How the hell will I change something that could very well be happening due to natural reasons?'

He cried out inwardly and tried to grab his wife who had already started walking.

"Dear..."

Meanwhile, the two elves who entered the forest were soon dumbstruck. Their eyes went wide with shock when they traveled deeper into the forest. Everything was frozen. The iced trees, the grass, and even the insects shone brightly under the reflection of the sun.

The two elves traveled a little more and their body started to turn numb. In the end, when they returned they were trembling with white wisps of smoke puffing out from their mouths.

Dynn looked at their condition and knew a big headache was waiting for him. His wife would probably kick him out of the house if he didn't take care of the temperature before his grandson arrived.

He looked at the clear sky with unshed tears.

'Is the nature angry with me because I didn't do enough good deeds? Or is it because I secretly stole those extra sweets even though my wife hid them from me?'

Dynn shook his head and mentally prepared his back to sleep on the uncomfortable cold floor.

As he walked around with a dejected expression, ready to go into the forest to check what was the reason behind all this. A strange thing happened, the cold wind suddenly retracted, traveling back toward the forest with incredible speed.

Dynn eyes narrowed. Now he was sure this wasn't due to something natural. Not just him a lot of old men appeared beside him with serious expressions.

"Don't tell me a natural treasure appeared within this forest?"

One of them said with disbelief. Natural treasures were something that appeared when a thick layer of mana gathered in a single place. They were very useful for those who wanted a breakthrough in their strength.

Dynn words stuck in his throat. If there was a natural treasure born within the forest he could pick it up for his grandson.

He sensed the cold air that traveled backward toward the forest and hurriedly followed behind it without any fear. A few more old men followed behind him. They traveled inside the forest for two whole days but found nothing except for an area that was frozen completely.

"I can't sense any treasure."

Dynn said with a solemn expression. He shook his head. Just what the hell was he thinking? It was very rare for natural treasures to appear.

He sighed because he knew the situation was strange. After looking around for a few more hours they went back to the village empty-handed.

After they left, a small movement appeared within the ice but it disappeared within a second.

At the same time, the ice above the place where Kyle was present started melting albeit very slowly.

In the void where Kyle's body was floating, he opened his eyes with a blank face and sat down.

The towering flames around him were nowhere to be seen now the place where he was sitting was empty, devoid of anything. The sky above his head was white and lightly blue. The ground beneath his body was invisible he felt like he was sitting in the air.

"Hmm, where am I?"

After a few minutes, his mind finally started working as he took in his surroundings with a confused expression.

Kyle looked below and his eyes widened slightly. There was nothing beneath him.

He stood up and walked but no matter what he did he didn't fall. His confusion was increasing with each passing second. Also, he could sense something changed inside his body.

Meanwhile, in a faraway place filled with nothing but wisps of strange energies.

A majestic blue dragon with a sleek and powerful body, adorned with scales that glisten like sapphires opened its eyes.

The dragon's eyes sparkled with wisdom and mystery, reflecting the depths of the universe as he glanced at the huge bright projection hanging above him.

"Hmm, one more name appeared on the list and it's a human again?"

His voice rasped as he closed in to see the name clearly.

"Kyle."

The name was shining brightly among the thousands of other names but it was at the bottom.

The dragon nodded as its ethereal wings opened to hide a large expense of space, ready to fly but in the next second, he stopped.
