Celestial Bloodline

111 What about the Reward?

Meanwhile, inside the white room where hundreds of different colored books were floating.

The red-haired woman who was sitting on the chair and reading a book, suddenly gazed at the three unconscious floating bodies.

"They are waking up already?"

Bia's ears perked up when she heard the woman's cold voice. She hurriedly gazed at Kyle and the others to see any reaction.

The first person to wake up was Jian. He looked around with his red eyes. 

"What happened..?"

The red-haired woman raised his brow when she saw Jian's face.

'Only one illusion. It's seemed he hadn't suffered a lot in his life.'

She was right, Jian's parents died when he was one year old that's why he didn't have any memory of them. Sometimes he became emotional because he didn't have any parents but he wasn't much attached to that feeling. 

The only people Jian was attached to was the late Queen and Prince Kelvin. So, after he saw the illusion where the Queen was alive he didn't experience any other Illusion.

Jian's life was also quite good in the Royal Palace that's why he didn't face too many bad experiences.

However, unlike Kyle who found the white portal immediately after the Illusion finished, It took Jian a whole week just to find the exit portal.

Jian ruffled his red hair and looked at Kyle and Alec. Just like him, both of them were floating. 

With a serious expression, he gazed around the white room with interest before his gaze landed on the red-haired woman.

"Hmm... Hello."

Jian waved his hand nervously at the woman because her eyes were too cold.

He could feel she was powerful enough to crush him with a single finger.

The woman nodded his head and pointed toward a corner. Jian looked to his left and saw a golden portal.

"You passed the trial. You can advance to the next floor whenever you want."

The woman spoke in a cold voice and again became engrossed in her book.

Jian blinked his eyes and didn't immediately rush inside the portal. 

'What about the Reward?'

He questioned inwardly. Each floor had a reward but this cold woman was just kicking him out after the trial? Jian wanted to protest but gulped down his words when he saw the woman's cold face.

With slow steps, he approached Bia who was sitting at the table, and silently stood beside her. He wanted to wait for the others to wake up because the others were more courageous than him. 

They will probably ask the red-haired woman for a reward!

After an hour, Alec also woke up with a drowsy expression. His black eyes were moist because he cried a lot inside the Illusion. With a serious expression, he looked around the white room. 

The woman gazed at Alec coldly and pointed at a corner while speaking some familiar words.

"You passed the trial. You can advance to the next floor whenever you want."

Alec blinked nervously when he gazed into the woman's deep and cold eyes. For some reason they were scary.

Jian who was standing beside Bia quietly looked at Alec with anticipation.

'He will surely ask for the reward!'

He secretly waved his hand toward Alec who nodded his head with understanding.

'Yes!'

Jian shouted inwardly with excitement. The next moment, Alec approached Jian and quietly stood on his left side.

Jian who was looking at Alec with admiration almost lost his balance. 

'The hell!'

With narrowed eyes, he threw a disdainful glance at Alec who ignored him completely. 

'Now my only hope is Kyle!'

Jian looked at Kyle's floating body. After another hour, Kyle opened his eyes with a deep sigh. 

Just like Jian and Alec, he immediately looked around the white room and spotted the red-haired woman who was engrossed in the book.

Bia looked at Kyle and hurriedly flew toward him before sitting on top of his head. Seeing Bia, Kyle showed a relieved expression. He was worried about her when he was inside the Illusion.

'How long did I sleep for?'

He questioned Bia inside his head and looked at Alec and Jian who were standing together beside the table present in the middle of the room.

-'You slept for two whole days!'

For some reason, Kyle felt like Jian and Alec both were looking at him strangely.

With a confused expression, Kyle waved his hand at them.

"Hey, what's up?"

The red-haired woman looked at Kyle and again pointed at the corner.

"You passed the trial. You can advance to the next floor whenever you want."

Kyle felt a cold sensation coursing through his body when he heard the woman's voice. It was even colder than ice!

He gazed at Alec and Jian. For some reason now he had an idea why they were looking at him with puppy eyes.

After throwing an apologetic nod at Alec and Jian, within a second Kyle grabbed a brown color floating book from the white room and jumped inside the golden portal.

Alec and Jian's eyes almost popped out of their sockets when they saw Kyle's actions. Both of them looked at Kyle's fading image and cursed inwardly. 

'Bastard!'

The red-haired woman's eyes also widened slightly before she stood up.

At the same time, the duo standing beside the table started sweating. They were tricked! Now gods know what will the woman do to them!

They never even dared to imagine that one day both of them would want to kill someone so badly!

With a nervous expression, Jian gazed at Alec who was wearing a dumbfounded expression. There was shock, disbelief, and confusion within Alec's black eyes.

After taking a deep breath, Jian stepped forward.

"I remember I had something important to do on the next floor so I think it's better if I leave..."

His sentence was cut off by the red-haired woman.

"Wait!"

Jian shuddered and almost went to his knees to apologize.

'I swear I don't have any connection with that thief!'

He exclaimed inwardly but then the woman sighed and spoke up again.

"Both of you can also take one book before leaving."

Jian looked at the woman and without waiting for even a second he grabbed a book and entered the golden portal.

Alec also snapped out of his daze and after grabbing a book he followed behind Jian.

After they left, the red-haired woman chuckled slightly. The books floating around the room trembled with happiness because while smiling the red-haired woman looked beautiful enough to be mistaken as a fairy.

The woman picked up another book and started reading again. This time no one knew when she would laugh again.
