Celestial Bloodline

Next day early morning, while everyone was gathered in front of the hotel waiting for Vice Principal George, Kyle was sitting in front of Elder Han inside an empty room.

He glanced at the Elder, wondering why was he called here.

Elder Han poured a cup of tea and pushed it toward Kyle. He looked at Kyle's anxious expression and knew the chances of success were very high.

That's why without wasting time, he started telling him about himself. Firstly the Elder was a high-ranked Mage;

Mages were those who studied and used mana in various forms instead of practicing a specific Art or weapon.

Secondly, the Librarian was also well-versed in Potion making and Arrays.

The more Elder Han spoke about his profession the more puzzled Kyle became.

Why was the Elder suddenly telling him about himself?

But he soon got the answer, when Elder Han stopped talking about other things and went straight to the point.

"How about taking me as your master? I think it will benefit you greatly."

"I have been thinking of taking a disciple for quite some while and you seem to be one of the best candidate."

Kyle stared at the Elder stunned. He have heard about some Professors and Elders inside the Academy taking in apprentices if they were interested in the said person.

But why him?

He was sure not just the Elder, almost everyone around him knew his talent was too ordinary! Nor was he a genius who possessed extraordinary talent in any aspect.

So why?

Kyle looked at the Elder with a complicated expression, he wasn't sure what to say anymore.

He knew that accepting the offer could give him a lot of benefits but he wasn't sure why the elder suddenly wanted to take him as his disciple.

The more Kyle thought the more confused he became. From the past few days, he could sense that Elder Han had been keeping an eye on him secretly.

But now the sudden offer made him a little suspicious.

Did he find out that his talent was greater than (B)-Rank or worse did the Elder find out about his bloodline? But it's not possible as he himself found out about the bloodline recently.

While hundreds of questions were going around inside Kyle's head, making him anxious. Elder Han looked at him and frowned.

He just gave him a once in a lifetime opportunity and this lad was wasting time thinking!

If there was anyone else, he would have already knelt and accepted him as his master.

After all, having a powerful master would make their journey of becoming strong a little smooth sailing.

The Elder became a little furious not hearing any response from Kyle even after he waited for a few minutes. As his patient was wearing thin he placed the teacup on the table and a loud sound echoed inside the room.

Hearing the sound Kyle finally snapped out from his thoughts and glanced at the Elder.

He almost freaked out seeing the Librarian staring directly at him with a dark face.

What's this?

Was he being forced?

Kyle would never accept this! No way!

He was going to protest when Elder Han's loud and cold voice reverted inside the empty room sending shivers down Kyle's spine.

"So, What's your answer?"

Kyle looked at the Elder, his expression deadly serious.

The Elder looked at his serious expression a little taken aback, was this kid going to refuse him? Thinking about this, the Elder became a little nervous but he didn't show it on his face.

Meanwhile, Kyle picked up the half-filled cup of tea the Elder placed on the table and stood up straight.

"Kyle greets the Master."

His words almost made the Librarian choke, what the hell?

If you were just going to accept in the end what's with the seriousness!

Nevertheless, Elder Han took the cup of tea from Kyle's hands and took a small sip before smiling with satisfaction.

He succeeded. Now he just needs to sit back while his disciple conquers the world.

Well, conquering the world would be an exaggeration because the Elder wasn't sure how far Kyle would go but he had a feeling if he missed today's chance he would regret it in the future.

Elder Han's gut feeling had never been wrong before so whenever he had a feeling he would always seize the chance.

Also the last time he felt this feeling was when he entered the Royal Academy after Principal Ratric tricked him into signing a long-term working contract.

He was traveling here and there gaining a lot of knowledge about undiscovered herbs when he first met the Academy Principal. The Principal was also roaming around wearing plain clothes like commoners that's why he didn't recognize the Principal.

After meeting the Principal accidentally, Elder Han had a nagging feeling that this person was dangerous but even though he was a caution person, Elder Han still got tricked by Principal Ratric.

Now he can do nothing but stay inside the Academy and watch over some old dusty books while also sharing his knowledge with the Academy Professors who were walking on the path of Array making or potion making.

Elder Han signed thinking about the regretful past, if he could go back in time he would probably beat himself up.

'If only I didn't succumb to the scent of that five hundred year old wine... Sigh.'

He who always roamed around the world not caring about a single thing, now has to serve someone else just because of a single wine bottle.

Sending all the old sour memories to the back of his head, Elder Han looked at Kyle and casually took out a bunch of high-grade potions from his storage ring with a plain bracelet that seemed to be an artifact.

"Here's a small gift from your master."

Kyle looked at the variety of potions lying on the table. All of them were high grade.

The light golden color ones were mana recovery potions, green ones were healing potions and the ones with blue color were used for energy recovery.

Seeing the Elder taking out so many expensive potions at once, Kyle understood one thing his new master was very rich!

The plain bracelet among the small pile potions seemed ordinary but seeing the faint light it was emitting, Kyle knew it was an artifact.

Kyle placed all the potions inside the storage ring and wore the bracelet in front of Elder Han.

He was pleasantly surprised after wearing the bracelet because he felt like he could control the mana more efficiently and easily than before.

"Thank you, master."

Elder Han waved his hand like it was nothing and asked Kyle to go downstairs where all the students were gathered.

Without saying anything else Kyle left the room, he was a little suspicious at first but after thinking about the pros and cons of having a master he didn't think it was a bad choice to accept the Elder as his master.

Anyway, he would eventually find out in the future if the Elder was scheming something.

Also, the first gift he received from his master was not bad at all. It would be quite useful to him after he entered the Tower.

Kyle was thinking of buying some healing potions yesterday but the amount of wealth he possessed was too low to even buy a low-grade healing potion.

'I need to think of a way to make money.'

Now that he had seriously started training and working hard he needed a lot of resources and to acquire those resources he needed money.

'I will think of a way after finding the Elixir.'
