Celestial Bloodline - Chapter 465: I can do it

lightsvεl m Joshua paused for a moment as a thought flashed through his mind. He glanced at Kyle from head to toe, observing his human physique, which was significantly different from that of a dragon’s.

“Kyle, how about you go and ask the owner for help as well?”

“This land lacks mana, so you won’t easily find any natural treasures that can assist you. He can train you. His methods are a little… challenging, but under his guidance, you can definitely achieve a transcendent rank physique more easily.”

Kyle noticed the slight pause in the old man’s words when he mentioned Hubert’s training method. Nevertheless, he didn’t care about the difficulty of the method. He needed a way to leave this place.

If achieving a transcendent rank physique was the key to leaving, he was willing to do whatever it took to reach that level.

He glanced at the image that had replaced his stats from the corners of his eyes and noticed that his physique had already reached the pseudo-divine rank.

Kyle rubbed his temples.

“But still, it’s gonna be hard to get him to agree, right? I mean, he made it crystal clear that he wanted me out of this village multiple times. If it weren’t for my injuries, I believe he would have kicked me out without a second thought.”

Joshua let out a chuckle.

“So you don’t even wanna give it a try? I remember those youngsters who wanted his teachings.”

“They had to camp outside his house for days and do all the chores for that lazy man, like cook meals for him, cleaning his house, and washing his clothes. It was only after enduring so much hardship that they achieved what they wanted. And mind you, they were of his own race… That’s why for you, it’s gonna be even tougher, but he’s not a bad person. If he sees your determination, he will surely help you.”ewW ovels updtes on nov/l/b(i)(.)com

He lowered his voice into a whisper.

“Also, it’s a secret, but owner can use spiritual energy. So if you are under him and get badly injured somehow, he would save your life at all costs.”

Kyle nodded and stared back at the old man with a firm gaze.

“I will make him agree. I have no idea about this land, and if I train on my own as you said, this land lacks natural treasures, it would take me too much time. I need a knowledgeable figure to guide me and Hubert is my best choice.”

“That’s why I will make him agree.”

Joshua patted his shoulder with a grin and wished him luck before he left the room after picking up the kid who had long since fell asleep on the chair next to Kyle.

Kyle watched his fading back and then stood up from the chair. He did some light exercises in the room, like moving his arms and legs, before he went out of the room to enter the bathroom opposite his room to wash his face. There was no mirror in the bathroom, and the water was filled up in large buckets.

He bent down slightly, careful not to make any excessive movements, and splashed water on his face multiple times before staring at his reflection in the water. The faint glow from the grey flowers hanging on one of the walls illuminated the small space with a soft glow.

“I have to do a lot, right?”

He sighed and closed his eyes.

“I need to keep moving forward… I can’t stop. Not when I promised Bia I would go see her soon. She’s probably going crazy right now… And Yue, I wonder how she’s doing? I hope she’s alright.”

Kyle’s eyes fluttered open as a rush of unfamiliar thoughts flooded his mind. His eyes turned extremely cold because he had finally understood the pattern of how his bloodline influenced his mind. Almost every time he was about to step into danger, the essence would try to influence his actions, just like now… his thoughts—they were trying to tell him that he shouldn’t take any action at the moment and that he shouldn’t worry too much about the people waiting for him, as they can take care of themselves.

“What now? Is there something dangerous nearby? Hmm, well, the No Mana Land itself is dangerous.”

“But… for some reason, the essence has become rather quiet lately, has it not? It’s not even pushing it anymore. Now I can easily sense thoughts that don’t belong to me. Or is it that my mind has gotten sharper?”

He wasn’t exactly sure why. Maybe it was because he warned the bloodline that he would lock it, or perhaps it could sense his restlessness and frustration.

But strangely, it had settled within his mind space completely. He could occasionally sense a familiar cold sensation coursing through his body, but it would quickly vanish as if it never existed at all.

“I am sure I can’t lock it at my will. Not when it’s a part of me. But I will make sure it does not interfere with my thoughts. Now I know this feeling. So, I will know if danger is nearby.”

Kyle cleared his mind and stared at his reflection.

“Hardships… I need to face them as well. I can’t always rely on my bloodline. Not when it’s not even listening to me if it’s threatened.”

He has realized that as long as he stays alive, everything will be fine. Only when his life is threatened does the bloodline act up. That’s why he needs to stay alive, and he will stay alive. No matter what.

Kyle took a deep breath and straightened his posture before removing his clothes. He examined the multitude of scars and injury marks that marred his body. They stood out even more prominently against his pale, cold skin.

“So, let’s get started. The goal for now is to achieve a transcendent rank physique. It’s hard, but not impossible.”

“I can do it.”

His gaze shifted towards the clothes placed in the distance.

Hazel had purchased a few sets of clothes for him to change into. He put on the plain brown shirt and jacket, slipped into the dark pants over the boots, and let out a sigh as he noticed that everything was made of leather. They were slightly larger on his frame, but well, it’s not like he can complain.
