No hesitation. No second thoughts. Everyone rushed toward the exit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stop.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Celeste's cold, slightly irritated voice rang out. The crowd froze mid-step, turning back in confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following her gaze, they finally saw what she meant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan was hunched over, desperately trying to squeeze his way through the mass of bodies. Even with his ridiculous strength, there was no way to bulldoze through over a hundred people in such tight space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now? Now everyone knew exactly who Celeste was talking to. No one said a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, whether it was one person or several acting together, someone gave a hard shove.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan was immediately pushed out of the crowd, stumbling into the open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he turned back, helpless, his classmates simply looked at him with a silent and collectively pitiful expressions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, in a wave of motion, they all bolted from the training hall. Someone even took the time to close the door behind them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan slowly turned around, awkwardly facing Celeste. \"Uh… M-Miss Celeste,\" he stammered. \"So, uh… it's dinner time, right? How about… we, uh… talk over a meal?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, Celeste steadily walked toward him. Her face was unreadable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan, however, was very aware of how many times he had witnessed her absolutely destroy their classmates in sparring sessions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tension gripped his entire body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stopped just half a meter away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, she simply stared at him. Then, to his utter disbelief, her lips curved slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You're buying.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…Huh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan's brain spun. Celeste had already opened the door and walked out before he managed to react.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly followed, trailing behind as they left the building in silence. The atmosphere felt unbearably awkward, so Ethan finally broke it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So… where are we going?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You're paying. You decide.\" Celeste didn't even turn her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uh… there's this burger joint by the west gate. They make a good double cheeseburger.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Celeste stopped in her tracks and looked back at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…Uh,\" Ethan blinked. He realized his mistake immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was the most sought-after girl on campus. Guys would probably line up around the lake just to take her to a fancy restaurant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And what did he suggest? A greasy burger joint? Yeah. Not his best moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Or, uh... we could get some sea food?\" he blurted, his brain scrambling for an alternative. To his surprise, the Ice Queen actually smirked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have to say, your taste is incredibly low. Seriously, how did you even manage to date Lyla?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan opened his mouth to protest, but then—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But seafood sound good,\" Celeste continued. \"Haven't had them in a while. Let's go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And just like that, she wasn't walking ahead of him anymore. Instead, she walked beside him, shoulder to shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan blinked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wait. Was this the second time he had seen her smile? And… it actually looked nice on her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, he wasn't dumb enough to say that out loud. As they walked together, students around them whispered frantically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within minutes, the news spread like wildfire. The Ice Queen… was leaving campus with a guy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And not just any exit. The west gate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone knew what the west gate was famous for. Hotels. Motels. A whole street lined with them. So when Celeste suddenly spoke, Ethan wasn't surprised at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shouldn't you check in with your girlfriend first?\" she asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had already noticed the stares. Even some teachers were giving them strange looks. Apparently, Celeste's reputation on campus was that powerful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan cleared his throat. \"Uh… I'll just ask Lyla if she's eaten yet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan wasn't usually the paranoid type, but he really didn't want this situation to be misunderstood by Lyla.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Things were finally progressing between them, he couldn't afford any unnecessary drama.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good timing,\" Celeste said casually. \"I was planning to find Lyla anyway. Quite the surprise running into both of you like this. If she's free, have her join us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan wasn't really paying attention to her wording. Under Celeste's half-smirking gaze, he quickly pulled out his phone and dialed Lyla's number.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, Lyla, have you eaten yet?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not yet. I was actually heading home to eat with you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uh… I'm still on campus. Senior Celeste invited us to dinner.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was a brief pause.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Celeste invited us to dinner?\" Lyla sounded genuinely surprised. \"Alright. Where are you? I'll come meet you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After giving her the location, Ethan hung up. Lyla didn't take long to arrive. And just like that, the three of them walked out of the school gates together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scene they created? Absolutely eye-catching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan, flanked by two of the most stunning girls on campus, was now the center of attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They found a casual seafood restaurant and took a table near the window. This time of the day, the place wasn't crowded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, their table was filled with plates of fresh oysters, grilled fish, and crispy calamari.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Celeste, who had been silent up until now, finally spoke. \"Do you know why I invited you here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn't bother with small talk. Ethan and Lyla exchanged glances. Then, they both shook their heads.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing how stiff they looked, Celeste suddenly smiled, a genuine, beautiful smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Relax, you two.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That only made them more tense. Celeste never smiled. It was part of the reason she was called the Ice Queen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And according to rumors, anyone who had ever seen her smile… hadn't ended up in a good place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because when Celeste smiled, it usually meant she was about to wreck someone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Actually,\" she continued, \"I'm not really a student here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That got Lyla's attention. \"Wait, but I heard you transferred in later. Where were you before?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead of answering, Celeste asked, \"Have you heard of Recruitment Officers?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan blinked. Recruitment Officers? Sounded like… military recruiters?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lyla, on the other hand, looked genuinely surprised. \"Wait, you're our school's Recruitment Officer?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan turned to her. \"Okay, hold up. What's a Recruitment Officer?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lyla hesitated, then glanced at Celeste.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Surprisingly, Celeste, who had been nothing but cold and distant in class, now had the demeanor of a friendly older sister. She nodded. \"Go ahead. It's not really a secret.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Getting her approval, Lyla explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Recruitment Officers were basically military recruiters, but with a twist. Instead of enlisting for the army, they scouted for a special government division.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Ninth Division.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lyla didn't go into detail, only saying that it was a classified national organization.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every major university had at least one Recruitment Officer stationed to identify and recruit promising talent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she finished, Celeste studied her closely. \"Sounds like you know quite a bit about them. Has someone tried to recruit you before?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lyla nodded. \"Yeah. Before I transferred here, someone approached me. But… I have a Silverwood surname.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That last part sounded cryptic to Ethan. What does having that surname have to do with anything?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Celeste, however, immediately understood. She gave a small nod, though a hint of regret crossed her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she turned to Ethan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So? Are you interested in joining the Ninth Division?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan stared at her, baffled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Ninth Division? What the hell even is that? Why do you guys talk about it like it's some top secret?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1202,"2026-06-02T11:41:20.825Z",1,"novelbin.me","09103673aa42ae8b2a8a755ea612494ba1bd2b6a41fcdf09b96f122936c417ed","level-1-to-infinity-my-bloodline-is-the-ultimate-chapter-76","level-1-to-infinity-my-bloodline-is-the-ultimate-chapter-74",946,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Flevel-1-to-infinity-my-bloodline-is-the-ultimate-cover.jpg"]
