Celestial Bloodline

Chapter 69 Shiny Black Stones

Under the starry sky, three humans holding different weapons were fighting a giant (D)-Rank monkey who had three tails and two horns.

All the humans looked very exhausted and a lot of injuries could be seen on their bodies but even in front of such a disadvantaged situation, their faces displayed a resolute expression and there was only one thought inside their minds;

'No matter what, we will take down this monkey!'

The reason for this was a weak-looking blue branch, present on top of a tree behind the horned monkey.

As the sound of metal hitting flesh rang out inside the still forest, the fight was finally nearing it's climax when one of the humans delivered a huge blow to the horned monkey.

Amidst the hectic atmosphere, a figure wearing brown clothes was sitting on top of a nearby tree.

There was a beautiful white glow around the figure's left ear. The figure didn't care about the humans or the horned monkey. It just looked around with squinted eyes, seemingly trying to find something.

The figure was Kyle!

After leaving the black pool he directly started running toward his next stop. Finally, after two days, he appeared at the location where the second golden mark should be present.

He was definitely not in the mood to help those humans. He wouldn't have even stopped at this place, if not for the golden cross mark that was showing at the location where those humans were fighting with the monster.

Bia who was flying, looking around from above, suddenly spoke inside Kyle head.

-'I can see a blue branch that is emitting mana, It's on top of a tree present behind the ugly monkey.'

After hearing Bia's words, Kyle nodded. He gazed at the fight in front of him with understanding and replied.

'Just picked up the branch and don't disturb the ones fighting. We should leave after taking the treasure there's no need to disturb others.'

Hearing Kyle, Bia was speechless. She looked at the three humans who were fighting, for some reason they looked pitiful.

She sighed, the world was too unfair. Well, maybe she would have done the same but Kyle was being too much.

At least tell those humans, you are taking the thing they are fighting for with their life on the line.

Or at least show some guilt you prick?

After throwing another pitiful glance at the humans, Bia hurriedly flew toward the blue branch and picked it up.

Right now her expression was serious and there was a floating thought inside her mind that cleared all her guilt.

-'It's fine as long as it's not me who is being used.'

After picking up the branch she flew back and gave the branch to Kyle.

Kyle took the branch from Bia and placed it inside his storage ring.

After throwing another quick glance at the fight that was almost ending, he nodded and disappeared from the tree branch.

Two minutes after Kyle left, the three humans killed the horned monkey. The moment the monkey died some white particles left its body and entered their bodies, making them look at each other with proud expression.

They did it!

One of the humans, who seemed to be the leader of the group, hurriedly took out a healing potion from his storage ring and gulped it down before walking toward the tree present behind the monkey body with an excited expression.

He was the one who found this place and also the one who suffered the most injuries in this fight.

Now that they have won the fight, the only thing left was to divide the loot!

With the other two humans following behind him, the leader walked toward the tree but when he saw that there was nothing present on the tree, his soul almost left his body.

He was frozen on his spot with his heart trembling, not believing what he was seeing.

Then suddenly one of the humans standing behind him also looked at the tree and questioned with shock.

"Where's the blue tree branch?"

Those few words were enough to make him cough up blood and faint on the spot.

He wasn't even able to curse.

The other two humans looked at each other, they also had the urge to faint but because their environment was dangerous they restrained their urge and dragged their leader away who seemed to have fainted due to the shock.

There were tears in their eyes.

Of course, they knew the blue branch didn't disappear into thin air. Someone else probably took it, when they were fighting with the horned monkey.

They wanted revenge but from whom should they take revenge? They didn't even see the person who took the blue branch!

The more they thought about it, the more tears stream down their cheeks.

.....

Meanwhile, after taking the blue branch Kyle was already more than a kilometer away from those humans.

After running around for two whole days he was dead tired but the next golden cross mark wasn't that far from his location. That's why Kyle didn't wanted to rest, not until he reached that place.

With raged breathing, he jumped from one tree to another. Not stopping even for a second.

Finally after two long hours. He appeared in front of some old-looking trees. The ground in the middle of those trees was pitch black with a small hole leading underground.

Seeing no monster around the black hole, Kyle finally decided to sleep for a while before he entered that hole.

He didn't knew what was inside that's why it was better to be prepared.

After looking around and finding a large tree nearby Kyle directly went to sleep. As usual, Bia sat on top of his stomach. She didn't sleep and kept an eye on the surrounding.

Next day early morning, Kyle woke up due to some rusting sounds. He looked down from the tree with squinted eyes and almost fainted.

Three round black colored, stone-shaped creatures were standing on the black ground. They opened their eyes and looked around before slowly closing them again and sitting down on the ground.

Kyle cursed, he didn't see them last night. It was too dark.

Now under the bright daylight, he was able to see everything clearly.

There wasn't any hole in the ground. There were only three black stone-like monsters. The three monsters were sitting around a pile of black shiny stones.

Heck! He wasn't even able to feel their presence. If not for the sudden movement, Kyle would have actually gone down to pick up those black shiny stones, stacked in the middle of those monsters.

Bia also looked at the monsters solemnly before speaking inside Kyle's head.

-'I can feel the presence of those three strange monsters, they are all (-C)-Rank. Also, I can't feel anything from those shiny stones but if you want we can try to think of a way to pick up those stones.' contemporary romance

After speaking Bia looked at Kyle only to get dumbfounded.

Kyle was already a few meters away from her!

He shouted inside her head with seriousness.

'Bia you are becoming too greedy. Of course, treasures are important but we can't risk our life!'

Looking at his fading image with blank eyes, Bia cursed before following behind Kyle.

-'Were not you the one who claimed to pick up all the treasures! When the hell did I become greedy?'
