Chapter 105: (-SSS)-Rank talent
Meanwhile, When Kyle's heart stopped beating. Bia felt the connection present between both of them dimmed.
Her body trembled as she looked at Kyle with tears.
At the same time, Kyle's hand slumped on the hot ground and he stopped shouting. He was breathing but his heart stopped beating.
After a few seconds, Kyle's motionless body moved. He blinked his eyes and looked at Bia who was flying in front of him.
Bia looked at Kyle who was gazing at her.
-'Are you.. alright?'
Her childlike voice trembled as she tried to stop her tears.
Kyle didn't reply. Even if he wanted to voice didn't come out from his lips. Now that some of his senses returned, he could feel something was happening within his body.
While Kyle was looking at Bia, the blue sparks present within his body shone brightly before they moved toward his soul.
They appeared inside a small white void. In the middle of the empty void, a transparent body was floating vertically.
The body was completely golden, and its facial features were similar to Kyle's. The body wasn't complete because its whole left shoulder was completely gone.
Its eyes were closed but an extremely painful expression could be seen on the body's face.
The blue sparks approached the golden body and surrounded the golden body.
All the blue sparks slowly started merging with the body. Within a few seconds, half of the blue sparks disappeared but the painful expression present on the body's face also disappeared.
After absorbing the blue sparks, the body became complete once again. Also, now it was shining more brilliantly than before.
The remaining blue sparks lost their radiance. With a wave, they returned inside Kyle's veins.
If Kyle could see his stats now, he would be able to know that his bloodline was temporarily unlocked but because of his condition, he wasn't able to see it.
At the same time, Bia who was looking at Kyle, narrowed her eyes. The beautiful green shade present within his eyes disappeared. His hair also started changing color.
The corner of his hair which shone brightly with silver color before became ash grey.
The brightness present within them disappeared.
Under Bia's gaze, suddenly Kyle gasped and clenched his chest. After a second, his heart started beating normally.
The pain also disappeared. He moved his hand and sighed with relief.
With a deep breath, Kyle wiped the sweat from his forehead. His body temperature also became normal.
Hundreds of questions roamed inside his head. Was this because of his bloodline? But no one could answer his questions, even he himself knew nothing.
Kyle didn't like it, how he had no control over his own body. If something like this happened again, he would probably die because of the unbearable pain.
Seeing him moving, Bia slowly flew toward Kyle.
Kyle looked at her. Bia's eyes were completely red. It seemed she cried.
With a light smile, Kyle grabbed Bia and creased her fur. He knew even though they quarreled and cursed each other a lot, she was worried about him.
"I.. am fine!"
Kyle said. With every second, his pale complexion was turning normal.
"It's just I felt... I lost a big part of my strength."
His voice was barely audible, because he was not sure what just happened but then Kyle shook his head.
Kyle gazed into Bia's eyes. He could see his reflection. A frown appeared on Kyle's face as he saw his hair.
The corner of his hair turned Ash grey.
'Tsk, I liked silver ones more.'
After a minute, Kyle heard some sounds from behind the boulder he was hiding.
"Hey, can you stop crying my sleeve is getting wet?"
Bia looked at Kyle with dark eyes. She was so worried about him and he was worried about a dam sleeve?
With a cold 'hump' she hurriedly left Kyle's hand and started flying.
Kyle chuckled at her reaction. He stretched his legs and stood up with caution.
"Who's behind the boulder?"
Bia looked at Kyle with a serious expression.
-'Two red core (-D)-Rank skeletons are standing behind the boulder, also I can see more are approaching. It seemed they heard when you were shouting.'
Kyle nodded and took out his sword from the storage ring. He was a little angry because of all the pain he had to suffer. Now he was going to take out all his frustration on these skeletons.
Bia looked at Kyle who took out his sword and became a little worried.
-'Hmm are you really fine now?'
"I am fine. No, actually I feel more energized than before."
Suddenly Kyle raised his bro, he hurriedly looked at his stats from the corner of his eyes.
Stats:
Name: Kyle

....
Kyle's eyes widened when he looked at his rank.
"I broke through?"
He said with shock. Just a few weeks ago Kyle broke through to (-D)-Rank. He knew, it would have taken him a few more months before he broke through again!
Bia also became surprised. She hurriedly tried to sense Kyle's rank but then clicked her tongue because after Kyle wore that strange earring, she wasn't able to sense anything from him.
On the other hand, Kyle's shock increased as he looked at his talent.
"What the hell!"
He mumbled under his breath. It was (-SSS)-Rank!
Kyle recalled that after the Phoenix helped him, his talent was (SS)-Rank but now it's showing (-SSS)-Rank!
Also, it's still suppressed!
But then Kyle suddenly thought about the pain he suffered a while ago. He shuddered, there was no way he wanted to experience that much pain again.
'Does it mean whenever my bloodline awakened a little, I have to suffer pain?'
Kyle's thoughts were disturbed when one of the red skeletons standing behind the boulder popped out his head to look behind the boulder.
With an annoyed expression, Kyle crushed the skeleton skull with a single strike.
-CRACK!
Kyle jumped out from behind the boulder and looked at Bia.
"How many more skeletons are coming?"
A simple question but Bia didn't reply.
"Bia?"
Kyle shouted her name and attacked another skeleton present in front of him.
-'Maybe 400 or something?"
Kyle almost tripped when he heard Bia's words. In the end, after killing another skeleton, Kyle turned around with a blank expression and started running in the opposite direction.
'I don't care about releasing frustration! My life matters more!'
