Chapter 435 My future friend


    On the other hand, after Kyle went home, the morning sun did not stop him from staying in bed all day. The bed belonged to Neon, but he did not really care, even when his brother entered the room and stared at his back for ten long minutes.


    Kyle''s entire body was sore from the intense battles in the war. He let out a sigh and covered his face with the nket.


    "I never knew that repeatedly exhausting mana and divine energy could be so physically draining..."


    He had many things to do, like getting up and exercising, as well as finding a good and safe way to leave the. However, he felt that nothing was urgent, so he decided to simply lounge around for the next few days.


    But in the evening, his father insisted on dragging him to the dining hall and asked him to eat. Kyle protested that as a pseudo divine rank individual, he did not need to eat. Nevertheless, when Ohan gave him a deep look, he obediently and quietly ate with the others.


    Kyle gazed at the round, red feathery ball sitting on the table with a raised brow.


    "What is this thing?"


    He poked his finger at the bulging stomach of the phoenix and let out a chuckle.


    "Just how much did you eat?"


    Bia huffed and rolled her body toward his father.


    -"Dad, your unfilial son is bullying me!"


    Kyle blinked and watched as his father picked up the little phoenix in his hand and gave him a re as if he had done something wrong.


    ''Huh, what the hell?''


    Heughed, and even though Ray and Neon left the house to celebrate the war victory with their friends, he went to his room to lie down again.


    But his peace did notst long because his father asked him to go and help Butler Eon in setting up a small library in the building. After all, in the old man''s opinion, lying for too long will not be good for him.


    Kyle let out a tired yawn and reluctantly went to assist Eon in cing the many books on different shelves. But after an hour, instead of setting the books, he started reading them. Eon noticed his distraction but allowed him to do as he pleased with a smile.


    The day paused, and Kyle didn''t even realize because he was engrossed in the books that were strangely interesting.


    He didn''te across many books that mentioned his family ancestry and just skimmed through the book about the ''ice enchantress'' a few times. Somehow, that particr book ended up inside the pile of books that came out from the old storage ring Eon brought from his father''s study.


    But strangely, he didn''t find anything useful. Regardless, he had to admit his father had a strange interest in romance because he came across many romance books in the pile. Kyle finally got the chance to justy down on the bed without a care when both Eon and his father left the house.


    The two old men went to the royal castle in the center of the human Kingdom to watch the ceremony, where all the young heroes of the Continent would be present.


    Kyle slumped down on his bed, thinking that he should soon contact Susan or Yon to find out how he could leave the.


    "Should I just fly and leave the to go to another? Also, Yue hasn''t given me an answer yet."


    Bianded on his stomach and closed her eyes to sleep.


    -"Talk to her again when she''s free. You know she''s busy, unlike you."


    Kyle clicked his tongue, a little annoyed at the truth. He closed his eyes and went to sleep as well, but he was jolted awake after a while when a sense of dread crept into his heart.


    Bia''s eyes snapped open due to his sudden movement, and she freaked out when she saw a pair of glowing eyes in the dimly lit room.


    -"Kyle!?"


    The phoenix called out his name and settled on hisp to see what happened.


    Kyle closed his eyes and rubbed his forehead that throbbed painfully.


    "I just saw a strange dream. I don''t usually have dreams... no, it''s the first time I had such a vivid dream."


    Bia gave him a puzzled look and furrowed her brows.


    -"What kind of dream was it that made you sweat so much? I mean, you usually don''t sweat even under intense heat with your normal body temperature."


    Kyle caressed the phoenix''s head and stared nkly at the ceiling above him.


    "I don''t know, it was really weird. I was screaming for help while some bizarre creatures, made of... maybe molten steel, were devouring me. The weirdest part is that I saw it all as if I was watching it, not actually experiencing it."


    "Bia..."


    Kyle paused for a second.


    "I saw someone standing just a little distance away from me... but that person just stood there silently, watching me cry out in pain, and soon blood painted thend that looked colorless for some reason."


    "I was jolted awake when that same person suddenly spoke up without turning around, saying, ''Are you looking my future friend?'' The voice sounded sad, but it gave me chills for some reason."


    Bia stared at Kyle, who started rubbing his forehead again. He was probably trying to understand what the dream meant. But then, a familiar voice entered Kyle''s ears.


    "Kyle, my bro? Where are you? We''re all here to pick you up! Let''s go party! Alec''s paying for everything!" N?v(el)B\\jnn


    Sinon sounded very excited when he mentioned Alec name. It seems he was ready to make Alec poor. Kyle blinked, feeling a bit disoriented when someone knocked on his room''s door.


    Kyle didn''t even respond, and all of a sudden, the door of his room swung open before Nine, Jian, Carcel, Regius, Alec, and Sinon strutted in like they owned the ce.


    Nine grabbed his nket and tossed it away. The brown-haired man burst intoughter at Kyle''s bewildered expression.


    "Don''t me us for intruding! We bumped into your father on the way, and he gave us the green light to kidnap you. He said you were just lounging in your room like a sleepyhead. So,e on, get up and let''s have some fun!"


    Kyle stared at them as he was pushed off the bed, and before he knew it, everyone was urging him to go wash his face. He let out a sigh and chuckled before giving an okay sign as he entered the bathroom.


    Bia stared at Kyle fading back before she turned to look at the many people in the room. The room looked crowded because of its small size, and for some unknown reason, she gave them a pitiful gaze.


    After five long minutes, Jian frowned.


    "What''s he doing? Why is he not out yet? Did he sleep in the bathroom or something?"


    The others had simr questions, and at that moment, Bia climbed onto Jian''s shoulder with a huge sigh.


    -"Who told you to send him to wash his face? Now, just wait for an hour because he takes forever when he''s washing up."


    Jian stared at Bia, and she nodded with a serious look. He looked at the others who were standing around him, and they all facepalmed.


    After ten long minutes, all of them sat down on the bed where Kyle was lying a while ago, waiting for him with a patient look as he took his sweet time to get ready.
