Celestial Bloodline
chapter-83

As Kyle pointed at one of the white orbs floating above them, the orb started moving and arrived in front of him.

Both Kelvin and Jian were looking at the orb with twinkling eyes. In their minds, they immediately marked this skill core as something awesome.

Under everyone's gaze, Kyle grabbed the core and saw its information before his face lit up.

The skill was very useful!

Also, it was an agility-type skill!

With a delighted expression, Kyle hurriedly absorbed the skill core. And all the knowledge regarding the skill entered his mind.

#*Swift steps (S)-Rank:

The skill can be activated with the usage of mana, after activation it will increase the user's agility stat as long as the user has enough mana inside his body. In the future, the user can become so fast that the enemies won't even be able to see the user's silhouette before they are killed.

The skill 'Swift steps' is a growth-type skill, it will grow more powerful when the user advances to the next rank.

The more Kyle thought about the skill, the happier he became.

The skill was simply too amazing because it was a growth-type skill, with a minimum mana requirement!

Right now if Kyle used 'swift steps' his agility stat would be doubled. He can also maintain the skill as long as he has enough mana inside his body.

While Kyle was grinning, Jian sighed and looked at Kelvin.

"I knew it, he got something amazing."

Both of them wanted to know what skill Kyle acquired but the topic was quite sensitive because people usually don't share their skill details with others, that's why they didn't ask anything.

After Kyle was done, it was time to leave the fourth floor.

Jian and Kelvin bid farewell to Kyle, now they were not sure if they would meet him again.

That's why before leaving Jian gave Kyle a small square-shaped family insignia and asked him that if Kyle ever went to 'Kingdom Whiteland' he was always welcome to visit them.

Kyle looked at the brown insignia. A white flower with three petals was engraved in the middle of the square-shaped insignia.

A family Insignia was only given to those who were trustworthy because it can be used for identification purposes or when you want to get entry inside the said family territory.

Kyle put the insignia inside his ring and nodded. He wasn't sure if he would visit them but if he ever got the chance to visit Kingdom Whiteland, this insignia could be useful in many ways.

After he took the insignia, both Kelvin and Jian approached the white stairway and left the floor under his gaze.

Kyle looked at the floating golden boxes and orbs one last time and sighed.

'What a pity.'

Afterward, he also climbed the white stairway and disappeared from the fourth floor.

....

Meanwhile, Alec, Mia, Lara, and Carcel all advanced to the fourth floor when Kyle was finding treasures on the third floor.

Kyle was probably the last one to appear on the fourth floor but he was the first one who left the said floor.

After Kyle, Kelvin, and Jian, Carcel was the second person who found the exit of the maze.

It took him a whole month but when he saw the reward, Carcel was delighted.

From the thousands of rewards floating above the open area, he chose a golden box and left the fourth floor quietly.

After Carcel, a lot more people arrived at the same place.

Some of them wanted to try taking more than one treasure but after the first choice, their bodies phased through the other treasures that's why they had no choice but to leave the floor disappointed.

Among the 55 percent of people who were present on the third floor, only 40 percent were able to advance to the fourth floor.

Of those 40 percent, almost 2 percent of people died on the fourth floor because the maze was too dangerous.

In the end, only 25 percent of people were able to advance to the fifth floor.

....

On the other hand, after arriving at the fifth floor. Kyle opened his eyes and looked around.

His eyes slightly narrowed when he saw his surroundings because he appeared inside a desert.

No matter where Kyle gazed, he could only see a sand desert filled with small swirling tornadoes.

Bia also started flying and looked around the desert but no matter where she looked she didn't find any path.

After looking around for a while, Kyle sighed and took a step forward but his foot didn't find a solid footing and sank inside the hot sand.

Due to the sand, walking normally was hard and tedious. Also, the temperature around the desert was too hot.

The hot temperature didn't affect Kyle that much due to his passive skill 'Fire resistance' but he had to put double the strength with each step just to walk normally.

He walked around the seemingly huge desert for a whole day but still found nothing.

After a long day, the burning sun disappeared from the horizon and a beautiful night filled with stars appeared on top of Kyle's head.

When the night arrived, the temperature around the desert decreased a lot. Kyle stopped walking and decided to rest for a while.

He didn't know anything about this floor nor was he sure how to find the exit to this floor.

Also, even after walking around for a whole day, he didn't see any living being.

The only thing around Kyle was a desert filled with small tornadoes.

Bia also flew back and sat on top of Kyle's head, she was tired after flying around for a whole day.

With another sigh, Kyle took out a sleeping bag from his storage ring.

The bag was square-shaped and fully brown. He bought it from the Academy before he left for the Tower

Kyle didn't use the sleeping bag on the lower floors as he could sleep on the trees but now he was sure he wouldn't be able to sleep with the small sand tornadoes flying around him.

After both Kyle and Bia entered the bag, they fell asleep.

Next day early morning, Kyle woke up and again started walking.

A week later,

A vein was bulging on Kyle's forehead. His feet were trembling due to walking non-stop. Also, he was dead tired.

"Just where the fuck is this place?"

Kyle shouted with frustration, even after walking for two whole days he didn't see anything or anyone.

Even Bia who was sitting on top of his head, looked tired and annoyed.

-'Just how the hell are we going to find the exit of this dam floor?'
