My Mage System (BL)

Chapter 110 - Being Caught Hesitating Whether Or Not To Knock On The Door.

When they were all in the kitchen, Erik began to prepare the meal and he categorically refused Kevin's help.

And, seeing that he wasn't very happy about it, he reassured him by telling him that he had planned an easy meal to cook, and once the preparations would be done, he would just have to leave it to simmer quietly before serving it.

Kevin really didn't like feeling useless, especially in his own house, and seeing this, Axel quickly diverted his attention asking Ian : "Did you come to bring the course for Kevin ?"

Ian said to them sincerely : "Not really, I just wanted to come and see how Kevin was doing."

When he saw that Kevin looked somehow disappointed he then said : "Well, I have my detailed formulas with me, so I can give them to you, but on condition that you promise me that you will listen to Alan and that you won't try to do them without his consent."

Kevin smiled at him delighted and then he frowned and he asked him surprised : "The detailed formulas ?"

Ian smiled at him, he had rarely seen someone who was so eager to learn, he pulled out 3 detailed formulas from his magic bag and said : "These are the potions I'm teaching this week, as I don't know yet if you will be able to come back by the end of the week, I will give them all to you.

There is the Spirit potion, the Energy potion, and the Purify potion."

Ian explained their effect to him but he already knew them, and the only thing he learned was that the Purify potion low grade could deal with all poisons of level 1 and 2.

Kevin looked at the detailed formulas Ian had just given to him, and he was once again amazed by this precision work, with all these explanations and with the procedure to follow to craft these potions, he was really wondering how some of his classmates could not succeed in crafting them.

When he asked Ian about it, he laughed and said to him that it was mainly because of two things, the lack of organization and the lack of concentration.

Kevin had to admit that without these two qualities it would be difficult to become a good mage.

Axel then frowned suddenly which didn't escape Kevin, and he asked him : "What is it honey ?"

Axel immediately said to him : "At first, I thought it was a coincidence and that this person was just passing by, but there is someone outside who keep walking close to our pavilion, and I don't recognize his scent."

Everyone looked at Axel surprised and then he said to them : "It's okay, it's not like it's a threat ... I'm going, you can continue to chat without me."

Axel kissed Kevin on his forehead before leaving, curious to see who the hell it could be.

And, when he opened the front door, he saw a boy who must have been the same age as Kevin and who was obviously hesitant to knock on the door or not.

Axel smiled at him, the look of surprise on his face was really, really funny, but he didn't want to upset him so he asked him nicely : "Can I help you ?"

The boy had blushed a little at having let himself be caught hesitating whether or not to knock on the door.

He politely asked him : "Does Kevin live here ? I'm in his class and I just wanted to know how he was doing."

Axel was quite happy that someone from Kevin's class was worried about him so he opened the door wide and invited him in : "Come and see for yourself, he is in the kitchen, please come in."

The boy seemed surprised by this sudden invitation but he thanked him politely and followed him to the kitchen.

When Ian saw the boy behind Axel he exclaimed : "Ashton ! Did you come to see Kevin too ?"

Ashton who obviously didn't expect to see so many people here greeted his teacher politely : "Teacher Ian … Kevin … I know we don't really know each other yet, but I wanted to come and introduce myself and see how you were doing."

Kevin smiled at him as he motioned for him to come and sit with them, he then said : "You were the boy who was to my right during the spells class, right ?"

After obediently sat down, Ashton's smile widened, he was happy that at least Kevin remembered him, and he replied : "Yes that's right, it was me ... You are really amazing, the blades you made were perfect and you threw them with such a deadly precision, every time you hit right in the middle of the dummy's head."

Kevin laughed, this boy had a communicative enthusiasm, so he decided to start doing the introductions : "You already know our teacher, so let me introduce you to Axel my boyfriend, you might have heard of him, right ?"

Ashton nodded and said eagerly : "My parents let me go to see the Three Sects tournament, three months ago, I was supposed to go to watch the mages but I always preferred watching the fighters."

He said while looking at Axel : "I have seen all your fights, you really are the best."

Axel thanked him and Kevin then asked him curiously : "Do you come from a family of mages ?"

Ashton nodded, he was about to speak but Ian answered for him first : "Ashton's family is the equivalent to mages of what Alan's family is to fighters."

Kevin looked at him surprised and saw that Ashton looked a little embarrassed, so he asked him a question that he hoped wouldn't upset him : "If your family is so famous, why aren't you at the capital's Academy ?"

Ashton answered him honestly : "This is what my parents wanted, but I pointed out to them that the annual Capital's tournament last year was won by a mage and a fighter from the Sun Sect, so they accepted to send me here."

Kevin was more and more curious about him so he asked him : "Why did you prefer to go to see the fighters rather than the mages ?"

Ashton then confessed : "It's because I would like to be stronger, I'm good in crafting potions, and create basic spells don't give me any particular problem, but when I see them fight I feel so weak, they are so fantastic.

Besides, I had already attended the annual Capital's tournament and watched the mages, I was sure that no one could beat Alan.

So, I preferred to go watch the fighters instead."

Kevin smiled at him, he remembered the weak and helpless body he was in just after transmigrated, so he understood very well what he was talking about.
