Chapter 59 An Ancient looking Cave I
Inside an unknown place shrouded with darkness.
No matter where one looked there was nothing.
Amidst the darkness, a huge bright white color circular orb, sized more than thousands of meters was floating mid-air.
The orb was the only source of illumination inside the pitch-black darkness.
A huge amount of golden energy was continuously rotating around the orb, trying to maintain its shape and luster.
After completing a rotation the energy which should have been returned to the core of the orb didn't return, instead the energy gathered like a small wave and went in a certain direction.
In that direction a black haired man who seemed to be in his mid thirties sat cross legged, the man's body was sucking the golden energy greedily.
The more the man absorbed the golden energy the more the seemingly white orb lost its radiance.
A small nail-sized, drop shape red crystal was also floating in front of the man chest. Even though the golden energy was going toward the man it didn't dare to touch the crystal.
The red crystal would tremble after every few minutes like it has a mind of its own.
The man sitting cross legged was wearing an elegant robe filled with ancient purple color patterns, a strong aura was surging around his body.
But the man whose eyes were closed looked seriously injured as his face was incredibly pale.
Suddenly a small frown appeared on the man cold face and he opened his eyes in surprise.
His golden color pupil shone beside the white orb radiance, seemingly trying to penetrate something present thousands of miles away.
But then again his face turned cold and expressionless.
"I am unable to see through that huge thing. It seems this small planet has quite a profound history."
A cold chilling horse voice, capable of freezing anyone came out of the man's mouth as he mumbled and closed his eyes again.
"It doesn't matter, If that 'thing' died inside everything will return to me anyway."
"It's just a pity that I have to waste some more time to find another suitable body compatible with the refinement."
....
On the other hand, Kyle was sleeping peacefully on top of a tree.
Suddenly a cold shiver passed through his spine and he stood up abruptly with sweaty palms.
Bia, who was sleeping on top of his chest cursed when she lost her balance due to his sudden movement.
-'At least give me a signal before standing up so suddenly. I almost fell and broke my precious beak.'
Kyle looked at Bia and smiled with embarrassment.
"Sorry, I just felt something bad was going to happen."
Bia looked at Kyle sweaty forehead and didn't say anything else thinking maybe he had a bad dream.
Kyle sighed and shook his head. He gazed at the mountain in front of him and jumped off the tree.
After traveling for more than two weeks, they finally appeared in front of the tallest mountain.
Kyle took out the map from his storage ring checking for the golden cross marks. There were 11 golden marks on the mountain in front of him.
He ponder for a while because even the nearest golden mark was almost in the middle of the mountain. Also, the mountain contained black cross marks more than the golden marks.
After thinking for a while he put the old scroll back inside his storage ring and decided to climb the mountain because the golden marks inside the forest were too far and it will take too much time to reach them.
With slow steps, Kyle approached the mountain and started climbing.
While climbing, he was on high alert because the monsters he encountered near the mountain were all (-E)-Rank or higher.
Kyle also saw a horde of (E)-Rank bees monsters on the way but fortunately, all the bees were busy munching on some monster's corpse that's why they ignored his presence.
Bia was also following behind him but instead of sitting on his head, she was flying because Kyle asked her to keep an eye on the surrounding and notify him if there was any danger around them.
Suddenly she noticed some commotion on the north side of the mountain.
-'Kyle there's something happening on the north side, I can see some people gathering around a strange ancient looking cave.'
After hearing Bia, Kyle stopped in his track and looked toward Bia.
"How far are they?"
-'Not much just five kilometers north.'
Kyle nodded and took out the map, there wasn't any cross mark toward the place Bia was referring to.
"There's nothing on the map, no black mark no golden mark so why are they gathering there."
Thinking for a while, he decided to go toward the north.
If there was any danger he would retreat if not then there was nothing wrong in checking out what was going on.
After running for half an hour, Kyle appeared at the place Bia mentioned.
He looked at the situation from a few meter distance.
There was a strange cave in front of him, the cave looked man made as it was completely circular.
The ground around the cave was strangely caved in a few centimeters, and the stones stacked in front of the cave were also different from ordinary stones because they were emitting white color hue.
The faint hue was continuously gathering around the entrance of the cave making a thin shield that stopped others from approaching the cave.
Kyle gazed at the surrounding of the cave and saw 6 people standing in front of the cave in two groups.
4 of the 6 individuals had pointed ears indicating their identity as elves and the remaining 2 were humans.
Two of the elves were trying to break the shield around the cave.
Seeing a familiar face among the small crowd Kyle's eyes lit up.
It was Blane! One of the Second year senior who talked with Nine and Kyle before they left the Academy.
Kyle started moving toward the two humans, he didn't even notice his steps were too silent.
After arriving beside them, Kyle spoke in a low voice.
"Senior Blane?"
"Kyaaaa."
Blane jumped backward, his heart almost leaped out from his chest. The other human standing beside Blane staggered due to the sudden movement and fell on his butt.
Blane was going to attack Kyle with his weapon but before he could Kyle shouted.
"It's me, Kyle."
With fast beating heart Blane looked at Kyle who just creeped beside him out of nowhere. He hurriedly retracted his weapon and settled his glasses.
"You almost freaked me out."
The small commotion also attracted the attention of the elves who were trying to break the shield.
On the other hand, Kyle looked at the duo and become speechless.
'What the! I just called your name.'
