Celestial Bloodline

Outside the huge Tower, the atmosphere around the small city was bustling. Many people from different races were roaming around or settling up small stalls for trading and business.

Today was the day when the individuals who entered the Tower would come out. The city present around the Tower was bustling with all kinds of activities but the atmosphere in front of the Tower was quiet and heavy.

Many old yet strong individuals from each Kingdom who left six months ago were now anxiously waiting in front of the huge Tower.

Like a circle 5 different groups of people were standing around the Tower. Their gaze was fixed on the Tower

Among them, Vice Principal George was also seen standing with Elder Han. Both of them stood tall in front of the people from Kingdom Escalante.

Almost every one of them had a grim expression because they knew a lot of kids who entered the Tower would have died but they were waiting for the ones who would return alive with newfound strength.

Those kids were the future of each Kingdom because even in the past those who had entered the Tower and found some opportunities had always achieved something in their lives.

But for some reason, all five groups present around the Tower looked at the other groups with vigilant.

Their eyes were sharp and cautious as they looked at the powerful individuals from the other Kingdoms.

From their stance, anyone could guess they were ready to fight if the others dared to make a move on their kids who came out from the Tower.

It's because every time anyone from the opposing Kingdoms got someone strong from the Tower, the others always did their best to take out that individual to make sure the Kingdom would not gain more power.

While they were waiting with serious expressions, under their gaze suddenly from the middle of the Tower a bright light flashed and a cracking sound was heard.

"They are coming out!"

Someone from the crowd exclaimed. Vice Principal George looked at Elder Han who was looking at the white light with an impatient expression.

He sighed. For some reason, Elder Han was quite agitated for the past few months.

"Finally..."

Elder Han mumbled under his breath and gazed above at the Tower. The bright light stretched wide and became circular.

....

Meanwhile inside the Tower, on each floor suddenly the sky glowed with bright light.

Everyone moving around the different floors looks up at the sky. Some were happy, some showed dejected expressions while some just sighed.

"It's time."

A golden-haired youth who was standing above a large black crab's body whispered.

The 4 to 5 humans standing behind him also gazed at the sky and nodded.

They knew when their six months inside the Tower would be over the sky would form a bright portal. The portal will suck all the alive people to send them outside.

Carcel jumped down from the crab's body and looked at Mia's panting figure.

"It seems we are going back."

Mia nodded and hurriedly picked up the skill core that was floating above the crab's body.

After she was done, she stood beside Carcel and the other humans standing beside them.

After a few seconds, the bright light present above the sky stretched and took the shape of a portal. Mia suddenly felt a tingling feeling on her fingers, She looked down at her hands they were turning into white particles.

She hurriedly gazed at the other individuals standing beside her. Under her sea-blue eyes, everyone turned into white particles.

She opened her mouth to say something but with a large wind gust her body also turned into particles. All the particles were sucked inside the wide portal present above the sky.

Similar portals appeared on each floor of the Tower and everyone turned into bright light particles and those particles were sucked inside the portals.

In another place around the second floor, a brown-haired youth looked above the sky and sighed dejectedly. Nine gazed back at the two elves standing beside him.

"So it seems the time to say goodbye has arrived."

The black-haired elf standing in front of him gazed at him with her beautiful eyes.

"It was nice traveling with you."

She blushed a little and fiddled with her slender fingers. Rowan looked at Elli and Nine before showing a sour expression.

'Why do I feel like a third wheel?'

He quietly distanced himself from the duo so as not to interrupt them. He and Elli only spent two weeks with Nine but it seemed Elli had taken a liking to Nine.

Nine looked at Elli's flushed expression and blinked his eyes. There was a tint of red present on his checks.

'I thought it was just casual interaction. Why do I feel bad now that we will be going our separate ways.'

He thought inwardly and gazed at Rowan but didn't feel anything.

'It seems I am only sad because of Elli.'

"Make sure to take care of yourself. Hope we meet again."

Nine offered a polite smile and looked at Elli.

Elli looked back and suddenly she remembered something and took out a blue fist-sized crystal ball from her storage ring.

"Here you can communicate with me with this!"

She hurriedly tossed the ball toward Nine. She wanted to say something more but her body started turning into white particles.

Nine caught the blue crystal. He was confused at first but then remembered elves and dwarfs were more advanced than humans. That's why something like a communication device was easily available in their Kingdoms, unlike human kingdoms where only strong individuals had communication devices.

Nine stared at her fading figure and hurriedly put the crystal inside his storage ring. There was a proud smile on his face before his body also started turning into white particles.

'It's seemed I found myself a cute and beautiful wife. Damn! I never knew I was so charming!'

At the same time, Rowan who saw the duo interaction cringed and suddenly felt a little lonely before his body also turned into particles and disappeared inside the portal present in the sky.

Meanwhile, in another place. An orange-haired girl released a sharp arrow from her bowstring directly killing the last (D-)-Rank monkey-type monster. After retracting her bow, Lara took a deep breath and gazed at Henson and Kelvin who were standing a few meters above her.

After the last monster died, Henson laughed and hurriedly rushed to the patch of brown color flowers present on the clear wet ground below a huge tree.

"I didn't think we would have such great teamwork!"

After grabbing the flowers, he divided them into three equal portions and gave the others their share.

Kelvin gazed at him with a smile. Their teamwork was indeed good but Lara's arrows were too powerful because she would easily kill any monster below (D)-Rank.

Just within a week, they found three natural treasures and both Kelvin and Henson broke through to (D-)-Rank.

Suddenly, the sky above them flashed with a bright light. Henson looked above and groaned.

"Tsk I just started having fun!"

He looked at Lara and Kelvin with a sigh. After a few seconds, his body started turning into white particles.

"Goodbye, guys. If fate willed it maybe we will meet again."

He waved his hand at Lara and Kelvin who nodded. All three of them also turned into white disappeared and disappeared into the portal.
