Celestial Bloodline

Principal Ratric was standing inside a dimly lit room when he clicked his tongue with annoyance. It wasn't the first time anyone tried to attack the students from the Royal Academy but this time it was a lot more severe.

"I don't think those old Kings are going to stop even after my warning. They will send someone again."

"It was manageable with only Alec but now that a (SSS+)-Rank beast appeared inside the Academy I don't think they will stay quiet."

He approached a nearby chair and sat down with a sigh. It was fine around the Academy but if the kids went any further without protection he wouldn't be able to guarantee their safety.

He massaged his temples and instantly called someone.

A black-haired old man entered the room after a knock. He wanted to bow politely but the Principal stood up with a serious expression.

"Which idiot permitted them to leave the Academy? Didn't I especially say to not let Alec and that kid Kyle go outside the Academy?"

The man looked at the furious principal. He started sweating because after coming back the Principal was working nonstop and now he was frustrated for some reason.

He could do nothing but quietly listen and curse the ones behind his misery. 

"Ban the four of them from entering the mission hall. If I saw anyone give them a mission and let them leave the Academy without my permission I would punish them myself."

The black-haired man nodded and instantly left the room. He went to the mission hall and after gathering all the people in charge he gave them a set of names. 

"If these people entered the hall and asked for a mission just kick them out or else we will be the ones to suffer."

Everyone nodded with a serious expression and instantly memorized the names.

....

Kyle and Nine separated with Alec and Carcel in front of the dorm building. They both walked together silently. 

They were busy processing everything that happened today. After reaching their rooms, Nine gazed at Kyle.

"Good night."

Kyle looked back.

"I can see the rising sun. How can there be a good night now?"

Nine chuckled and the mood instantly became light.

"Then just rest. Remember we have a practical exam tomorrow."

"I know..."

Kyle opened the door and entered inside. He looked inside his hoodie.

"Are you sleeping?"

-'I woke up when those individuals gathered around you. I wanted to come out to help but I felt a lot of prying eyes fixed on your body that's why I stayed quiet.'

-'I think they were there because of me.'

Kyle sighed and grabbed Bia who was inside his hoodie.

"Don't feel guilty everyone is fine. Also, it's partially my fault I knew it was dangerous but I still left the Academy."

"I wasn't able to refuse because it was the first time I was going outside with friends."

"Maybe I wanted to experience the feeling I guess."

He placed Bia on the bed. He could feel it she was feeling sad.

-'No it's not your fault. It's the second time you got attacked because of me. I should have stayed inside the room when you asked me to.'

Kyle sat on the bed and removed his shoes.

"Don't think too much, just sleep. We will become stronger in the future. Strong enough to roam around wherever we want without fearing anyone else."

"You can also become my exclusive (SSS+)-Rank Phoenix in the future let's see who dares to attack."

"The only problem is your size."

Kyle chuckled and looked at Bia who was wearing a solemn expression. Bia wanted to argue that size wasn't everything but she just stayed quiet. 

Her mood becomes lighter after hearing Kyle's positive words.

Kyle stood up and entered the bathroom to take a bath. Bia stared at his fading figure with her round eyes.

-'Alright.. we will become strong together.'

She closed her eyes emotionally but the comment about her size was very sour.

-'Damn it! I want to increase my size as well. Normally it would have increased slowly whenever I advanced a sub rank but after consuming Kyle's blood essence my body stopped growing.'

-'Maybe after Kyle awakens his bloodline my size will turn normal.'

She complained inwardly and buried herself inside a pillow to sleep.

After taking a bath Kyle also fell asleep. He didn't do anything the whole day and just lazily lay on top of his bed.

He tried to read the Ancient Array books he found inside the Tower but they were too difficult. In the end, he gave up and decided to read them when he became a little proficient with Array Symbols.

At night, Kyle heard a knock at his door. He opened the door and Nine was standing outside with a solemn expression.

Kyle frowned.

"What happened?

"Bro, I just went to the mission hall to summit the failed mission we took before leaving. You know what happened!"

"They mercilessly kicked me out!"

Kyle raised his brow.

"Why?"

"I don't know the reason but it seems we are banned from stepping inside the Mission hall!"

Nine grumbled. It was okay if only Kyle and Alec suffered but he and Carcel were also prohibited from leaving the Academy! This wasn't fair at all!

Kyle chuckled when he saw Nine expression.

"I think it's for our safety because we faced a big threat when we went out."

Nine mood didn't become good at all. 

"Anyway want to eat together."

Kyle shook his head. He and Bia had already eaten an hour ago. Nine wanted to enter his room to tell him the tragic story about how he was mercilessly kicked out and all the watching students laughed at him but Kyle pushed him toward his room with a laugh.

"Alright go and rest. We have the practical exam tomorrow!"

"But I have been resting the whole day!"

"Let's meet tomorrow."

Kyle said and shut his door. He went toward the bed and closed his eyes to sleep again.
