Celestial Bloodline
Chapter 454 I will give you a good spot among my servants.

Kyle slowly began moving backward in mid-air with a face that didn't reveal his inner panic. His expression turned serious when the elven man started to move towards him. He blinked and used instant teleportation to disappear in a different direction.

'I am fucked!'

Onicuss' lips curled into a smirk as the human across from him vanished into thin air. He narrowed his eyes and raised his hand to envelop the space around him inside a barrier. A comfortable wooden chair materialized beneath him in mid-air, and he sat down. Onicuss rested his palm beneath his chin as he watched the human with an amused expression.

Meanwhile, Kyle didn't dare to look back as he kept using instant teleportation to go to the other end of the planet. He was hoping to find an abandoned cave or something to hide in. But his eyes widened because after the third time he used instant teleportation, he realized that the scenery around him didn't change at all.

He clenched his hoodie, which covered his head, and slowly looked back at the man who had been watching him with an amused smile.

"You... "

Kyle's shut his mouth when he sensed countless more people around him.

The night sky started to turn even more ominous as individuals from the dark race and nightkin race began to fill the sky and surround the area from all sides. The air rumbled with the distant echoes of their laughter and cheers. It seemed they were delighted to have found their prey, the prey they had been searching for so long, all thanks to the shadow general.

Kyle's face hardened as he stared at the man, who he was now sure is the shadow general. He sensed many pseudo-divine rank and divine-rank individuals around himself.

'What does he want to do? I believe he alone is enough to finish me, so why? Don't tell me this bastard wants to watch me struggle...'

He knew he was in big trouble.

No, if only it could be called trouble... he was literally floating between so many enemies that his chances of survival were almost non-existent. Not to mention, he still had no idea about the rank of the elven man sitting in the chair before him.

Could he be a transcendent rank individual or maybe even higher?

"Just when I thought things couldn't possibly get any worse..."

Kyle whispered under his breath in a faint voice, but he knew everyone around him heard him because the two dark-robed individuals floating behind the shadow general burst into laughter.

He would be lying if he said he was not overwhelmed. He wanted to curse so badly, but had no idea who to curse... The only thing that gave him courage was knowing he was part of the future Nine saw.

'Damn, back then I was so sure that the future had changed because Nine told me about it. And now, I'm betting on that same future. Huh, honestly, getting beaten up by Alec and beating him in return is a lot better than dying.'

Kyle almost wanted to laugh at his thoughts but held it in because he knew people around him would think he went crazy, seeing no way to survive.

He pulled down the hoodie that was covering his head. His silver hair glistened in the darkness as he locked eyes with the elven man sitting on the chair in mid-air across from him.

The man had been strangely quiet, but Kyle did not care. He got ready to face the worst nightmare of his life. After all, he had already tried to escape using instant teleportation, but he failed.

"So, fight is it? Alright, let's fight 'cause I don't think I can escape."

Kyle grabbed his sword from his mind space, but the shadow general only raised a surprised brow and waved his hand.

In an instant, the twin demons behind Onicuss floated forward to fight Kyle. Not just the duo, but the countless people flying in the sky also surrounded the silver-haired human from all directions.

Kyle's face stiffened when the twin divine-rank demons attacked him with many other divine rank individuals. He blocked one of the attacks as his sword crashed with the pointy nails aimed at his heart, but he was just a pseudo-divine rank individual. That's why he was pushed back in mid-air. As the second attack aimed at his heart arrived, he vanished toward Onicuss to at least wipe that disgusting smile off the man's face.

But he let out a frustrated shout when a barrier stopped him from approaching the man sitting on the chair, and many people flew forward to attack him.

"The hell... I told you I would fight you! Why do I need to go through so many people just to reach you!? That's not fair!"

Onicuss rubbed his chin and narrowed his eyes at the human, who blocked another attack aimed at his back and vanished into thin air, only to appear behind one of the divine-rank individuals to kick them into a portal that materialized in the air.

The air lit up with arrays of skills as they were thrown at Kyle. But everyone was growing increasingly frustrated due to the human's teleportation skill.

Kyle jumped back after he killed a pseudo-divine rank individual amidst the crowd. His ears twitched when he faintly heard the voice of the shadow general amidst all the sounds around him.

"There's something in your body I can't sense... what is it, human? It's strong enough to counter my perception... how interesting."

Kyle's face darkened.

No way, he couldn't let the secret of his bloodline be known to others, especially not to the shadow general! He still remembers how that woman who took Yue, Nine, and the others with her wanted to peer into his body just because she couldn't exactly understand the essence in his body. The pain he felt in return was unbearable.

He blinked and disappeared into the distance, away from the shadow general. Also, to divert the man's attention from his body, he took out countless mana stones from his mind space and scattered them in the air around him. In the next second, many portals lit up in the air and illuminated the dark sky.

Then Kyle used his fear skill. His eyes glowed a bit, and all those below the pseudo divine rank stopped in their tracks, and their eyes started to turn hazy.

Kyle's head throbbed, even though the skill didn't require mana or anything else. He still had to concentrate to spread it out to such a vast space. Moreover, he noticed, with a clenched jaw, that he couldn't maintain it for a long time. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Nʘvᴇl(F)ire.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

But he took advantage of the few seconds he got and used a big part of his divine energy to spread out his ice domain. Kyle felt his strength rising when an ice barrier spread out to enclose him and a lot of people around him inside a space that separates them from the surroundings.

Kyle's breath turned heavy. He knew his domain had the ability to make itself invisible from the outside world, and not many people can enter inside without his permission. But it consumed too much of his divine energy and mana, and he knew that to maintain it for a long time, he needs more mana and divine energy.

'That's why I don't use the powerful skills too often... they are useful but they require too much energy.'

The people inside the domain watched as countless icicles formed around them, their icy sharp tips pointed directly towards their bodies. The air grew increasingly cold as Kyle clenched his fist, and the icicles shot out towards them with lightning-fast speed.

Many people who were still struggling to overcome the fear skill cried out as the icicles penetrated their bodies. But in the next second, the air stilled and Kyle gritted his teeth when he saw a crack in his domain.

'Darn it! I thought he wouldn't interfere!'

He watched as the icy barrier started to shatter. All of a sudden, a chill ran down Kyle's spine and he vanished from his spot. In his place, Onicuss watched as his hand grasped nothing but thin air.

"The human possesses yet another impressive skill. Now, I wonder how many more strong skills he has."

Onicuss chuckled, but a look of disdain appeared on his face as he glanced the injured people around him. He couldn't help but feel repulsed by these weaklings who couldn't even handle a single human who hadn't even reached the divine rank yet.

He raised his dark eyes, and the domain Kyle created shattered into countless pieces before fading into thin air.

Onicuss watched the fading ice and glanced at the panting and sweating silver-haired human across from him. He knew the latter had probably used up all his divine energy, and he wouldn't be able to fight any longer.

But for the first time in his life, he was so interested in someone. That's why, even though he wanted to kill the human before him and extract all his skills, he offered him a way to survive.

"I have to admit, you are strong. I will give you a good spot among my servants. So, how about you sign a contract with me, human?"
