Celestial Bloodline

Chapter 467 A familiar name

The sky had started to turn dark, and he couldn\'t understand how Kyle managed to stay so dry.

"Man, I start sweating buckets after just a couple of hours, but look at this guy..."

Bemail muttered under his breath and scratched his head.

"Ugh... I guess humans just don\'t sweat as much as dragons?"

He flinched as, just before he could jump over the wooden barrier, Kyle glanced back and locked eyes with him, raising a questioning brow.

"What happened?"

"That... I-!"

Bemail almost slapped his mouth in disbelief because he actually stuttered due to the sudden surprise. That face, coupled with those bright eyes that had a color he rarely saw in his life... Damn!

"Ahem, the instructor said you can join us and train inside the field. So why don\'t you come in?"

Kyle let out a surprised \'Oh\'. He had felt many eyes on him ever since he started coming here. But he mostly ignored them because he knew the people of the village would be cautious around him.

"It\'s fine. Now that my injuries are healed, tomorrow I\'m heading to the mountain to find Hubert. That\'s why I don\'t think I\'ll be coming back here anytime soon."

Bemail blinked, but when he processed Kyle\'s words, he let out a gasp of surprise with wide eyes.

"What, you are going to find the owner? Don\'t you know he doesn\'t like it when others visit him? He\'s gonna throw you off the top of the mountain!"

Kyle looked at him, and the corners of his eyes raised a bit with amusement. At first, Bemail was very guarded around him, but now Kyle could sense a hint of worry in the man\'s voice. Maybe after staying around him for so many days, Bemail had started to to feel more at ease around him.

"Thanks for the reminder. I\'ll make sure he doesn\'t throw me off the mountain, at least. After all, I can\'t fly now."

He rummaged through his clothes and pulled out a few patches of dark silver flowers from inside his jacket. As soon as he revealed the flowers, Bemail\'s eyes widened even more in shock. Kyle noticed the subtle change in his face and tossed the flowers towards him.

"I just found them around the field while running. Are they useful in any way?"

Bemail quickly caught the flowers with a fluster. He glanced at them and then at Kyle with a bewildered expression before turning around completely to face Kyle, making sure that no one could see them.

"These are moonlight flowers! They are very rare and precious! How the hell did you find them? And not just one, but so many! Did you really find them around the field? No way! I won\'t believe you!"

Kyle raised an eyebrow. He really found them around the field while running... they were unlike the other gray flowers and were simply concealed amidst the cluster of flowers around them. If it weren\'t for the faint metallic scent he detected from them, he would have overlooked them, thinking they were ordinary.

Kyle rubbed his chin because he had noticed many more in that spot as well. He would go and gather them too.

"Moonlight flowers? So, are they useful?"

Bemail lowered his voice with a solemn expression.

"Of course they are! They are very popular among girls because they are believed to enhance beauty and youthfulness!"

Kyle\'s eyebrow twitched, but he took a deep breath and patted Bemail on the shoulder.

"Then you can have them. Take care."

Bemail seemed like he wanted to refuse, but the human left the area with long strides, without looking back.

Kyle clicked his tongue as he passed through the narrow, earthy streets and made his way toward the place he\'s been staying to say goodbye to Hazel and Joshua, as he would be leaving tomorrow. On the way, his ear twitched when a passerby suddenly called out his partner with a name that sounded strangely familiar. He furrowed his brows and mumbled under his breath.

"Nicole...? That name sounds rather familiar, but why can\'t I remember where I heard it before?"

But no matter how much he thought about it, he couldn\'t remember any memories associated with that name except for a feeling of familiarity.

Kyle\'s picked up his pace, and after only a few minutes, he entered the room he had been staying in and hastily took out the notebook from beneath the pillow to check for any familiar names. Yet, even after he checked the notebook multiple times, he realized that there was no mention of that name in there.

As he rubbed his forehead in frustration, Hazel entered his room with a few more sets of clothes and asked him what had happened. Kyle hid the notebook inside his jacket and glanced at the old woman.

"Nothing... I feel like I have forgotten someone important once again."

Hazel looked at him quietly and softly patted his shoulder. She placed the clothes she brought on the bed.

"Don\'t worry, young man. Even if you forget them, they will remember you, won\'t they? Once you leave this place, you can go and meet them, and you will regain your memory."

Kyle stared at the woman\'s old face, his expression downcast as he felt a deep sense of having forgotten someone very important, someone he never wanted to forget.

"Yeah... Hopefully."

He responded with a sigh, setting the matter aside. He informed Hazel that he would be leaving to meet Hubert the next day. At first, the old woman was taken aback, but then she wished him luck.

Hazel had seen Kyle heal faster than anyone she had ever seen. She had a feeling he would leave this land sooner than she expected.

Nevertheless, she made sure to let him know that he was always welcome to visit her whenever he wanted. She even packed some sets of clothes and shoes for Kyle in a bag. After all, storage rings or any other storage abilities didn\'t work in the No Mana Land due to the lack of mana.
