After arriving in front of a small stream, Kyle hurriedly cleaned himself.
The water of the stream was crystal clear with some small fish monsters swimming here and there. On both sides of the stream, the only thing Kyle could see was large trees and grass.
“I don’t have more clothes.”
With an annoyed expression, Kyle looked at the clothes he was wearing.
A loose brown shirt with pants. It was the last clean dress he had left.
Kyle looked at his reflection present inside the stream water and frowned. The corner of his black hair started turning silver when he turned 16 but now almost 25 percent of his hair was silver.
Unlike before he was clearly able to see a big difference in his appearance because all this happened within a week. Even his black eyes were strangely giving off a greener shade.
“What’s happening?”
Kyle questioned but after thinking for a few seconds, he stopped looking at himself.
‘Is it because of my bloodline?’
He knew he would be turning 17 next month and just like last year, these changes started to appear again.
When the first time, Kyle’s hair started changing color his father was a little worried because instead of turning silver from the roots his hair started turning silver from the corners. Baron Ohan called some healers to check on him but the healers didn’t find any problem with Kyle.
That’s why afterward Kyle just stopped thinking about this matter because the changes were not harming him. But now that he knew he possessed a bloodline something others didn’t have, he was sure the changes in his appearance were related to his bloodline.
With a serious face, Kyle walked toward the cloth bag in which he placed the 2 blue eggs.
The eggs were still emitting cold chilling auras. Kyle placed the pouch containing the storage rings with the eggs and tied the bag to his waist.
After resting for a while, both Kyle and Bia started heading toward the east to find more treasures.
While Kyle was walking, Bia was flying above his head. Suddenly she spotted some humans and immediately informed Kyle.
With a nod, Kyle changed his direction as he didn’t want to meet someone and waste time because he was very busy sweeping the ‘first floor’.
After an hour, Kyle was standing in front of a strange structure.
In the center of three large trees, a large stone tablet engraved with ancient language was standing vertically. There was a large dark tunnel under the stone tablet.
Kyle looked at the stone tablet and frowned. The golden cross mark he was finding was a little further from this place.
Also, according to the map the place he was standing wasn’t marked with any golden or black cross mark.
Bia also looked at the stone tablet and the dark tunnel before questioning Kyle.
-‘Are we going inside?’
With a serious expression, he hurriedly shook his head.
“Bia I think we should avoid dark ‘holes’ as much as possible.”
After speaking, Kylee immediately turned around and left the place.
Just an hour ago he was chased around by the snakes. There was no way he wanted to experience that feeling again!
Bia looked at the tunnel and then at Kyle. She blinked her tiny eyes with a rather surprised expression.
-‘Okay.’
While Kyle was leaving, the old man who was called ‘Susan’ looked at his fading image. Even though his face was expressionless, one could see a vein bulging on his forehead.
“This kid! You entered every tunnel and hole you saw but now that I want to send you to the seventh floor you are avoiding the holes?”
For the time after a long time, Susan’s old face which was always devoid of emotions finally became dark.
“Should I just pick him up and throw him inside the tunnel?”
Susan hurriedly shook his head. He wasn’t allowed to harm the kid.
With a patient expression, he started floating toward the next destination where Kyle was going.
….
Meanwhile, on the seventh floor;
Alec and Jian were sitting on top of a large stone. Their breathing was rough and various holes can be seen in their clothes.
The stone they were sitting on was the only place that wasn’t hot.
The atmosphere around them was so hot that both of them felt like melting.
While they were resting, suddenly two fire skeletons crawled out from a small lava lake present opposite to them. One of the fire skeletons had a blue core in the middle of its chest while the other had a red core.
After crawling out both of the fire skeletons looked at Alec and Jian with their hollow eyes before running toward them.
Jian looked at the approaching skeletons, he wanted to cry.
“It’s been a week since we arrived on this floor and the only thing we did was to search and kill these ugly skeletons! We didn’t even find a single treasure.”
“It’s so unfair, I don’t want to fight anymore.”
Hearing Jian’s voice, which was filled with frustration. Alec sighed and glanced at his wrist.
On his wrist number 289 was written in red bold letters. That means he needs to kill 711 more Fire skeletons to reach the number 1000.
Jian kill number was even lower than Alec’s. His wrist showed the number 198.
Killing fire skeletons wasn’t hard as both of them fighting together could deal with the skeletons.
The hard thing was finding those ugly skeletons and coping with the hot environment!
From time to time, the skeletons would crawl out from the lava lakes or pits but the number was ridiculously small.
With a serious expression, Alec stood up to fight the two skeletons who were running toward them.
“Let’s continue. I believe we can do it.”
After hearing Alec’s cheering words, Jian didn’t knew whether to cry or laugh.
He just wanted to go home!
With a teary expression, Jian also stood up and threw some spells toward the approaching skeletons.
“You bastards. Piece of shit! I can’t even cook or eat you. Why the hell are you all so ugly!” freeωebnovēl.c૦m
Alec looked back at Jian dumbfounded.
Even the skeletons who were running toward the duo were momentarily speechless.
