My Mage System (BL)

Chapter 48 - The Perfect Excuse

Kevin was glad he took the time to calm down, he then grabbed the collar of Axel's sweater and kissed him passionately.

He had always been more of a man of action than words, and this fiery kiss would allow his man to understand that he had missed him too.

Axel didn't expect this, but he responded fervently to his kisses, he had really missed him this morning and he was happy to feel that he had missed him too.

When his hands were slowly heading to his so tempting butt, they heard someone cough and Axel reluctantly part away from Kevin and said, introducing him to the red haired boy : "Kevin this is Erik. Erik it's Kevin the one Alan told you about."

Erik held his hand and laughed heartily, winking at Kevin : "It's not just Alan who told me about you, your man keeps talking about you all the time, I couldn't wait to meet you."

Kevin shook his hand and said smiling at him : "Alan talks a lot about you too, I was also looking forward to meeting you."

Fortunately, nobody noticed his relief that it was indeed Erik and he felt like he could breathe freely again.

Erik seemed very pleased to hear that and Axel then asked Kevin with a obvious curiosity : "So how did it go ?"

Kevin couldn't tell him that he had just unlocked a whole new block of skill in front of Erik, so he just said with his eyes shining with excitement : "It was awesome, I managed to craft 2 Healing potions low grade and I also meditate for 2 hours."

A rather familiar voice then exclaimed behind them : "Fuck Axel, weren't you supposed to tell him to slow down on meditation. Do you want him to go into a coma ?"

They all exclaimed together : "Alan !"

Upon hearing his voice, Erik immediately went over to Alan who pulled him into a hug and kissed his forehead, then he began rubbing his lips against his, teasing him before kissing him fiercely.

He let Erik go only when he was out of breathe and after giving him a last kiss, he immediately returned all his attention to Axel with an expression on his face that was clearly saying, 'I'm waiting for your explanation'.

Axel seeing his friend looking at him that way thought that luckily he had found the perfect excuse for Kevin and he immediately said to him : "Let me explain it to you okay, yesterday we went for a walk in Dawn city and I introduced Kevin to Tony, I still had weapons to sell him."

Well that wasn't exactly a lie so he continued : "Kevin apparently made a good impression on him because he showed us a necklace made of a strange black metal that can suppress the negative effects of meditation, and it can also increase his absorption of the particles of the elements.

Thanks to this necklace, I promise there is no more mental fatigue for him, problem solved, Kevin can now meditate with serenity, and by the way … Do you think really I would have let him put himself in danger ?"

Alan was stunned, he had never heard of an item that could have this kind of effect before, he turned to Kevin and asked him, completely ignoring the last thing Axel had said to him : "Can you show it to me ? Do you mind if I give it a try to check its effectiveness ?"

Kevin took off his black chain and handed it to him : "No problem Alan, you can keep it for testing it if you want, I still have to do my workout hour and my stretching hour.

If you can bring it back to me around 4pm that would be great, I would like to do some more meditation again."

Alan nodded and said : "I'll bring it back to you even before, you don't have to worry about it, thank you Kevin to let me try it."

Kevin waved his hand to say it wasn't a problem at all, and Alan that have been a little taken aback by what Kevin had just said, asked him suspicious : "And otherwise, was it Axel who made you a training program ?"

Kevin laughed a little embarrassed and told him the truth, after all there was nothing to hide : "No it's me, I was a little ashamed to have such a weak body, so I set goals for myself, but don't worry it won't interfere on my apprenticeship as a mage."

Alan nodded very satisfied, it was just as important for a mage to have a good physical stamina as it was to have a strong mind : "This is a very good initiative Kevin."

He then remembered what Kevin had said earlier before he cut him off to scold Axel and asked him curiously : "Did you really manage to craft 2 Healing potions low grade in your first alchemy class ?"

Kevin nodded and took out teacher Ian's detailed formula, he handed it to him and said : "Yes I succeeded on my first attempt, it's thanks to our teacher, he prepared this detailed formula for us and everything is explained on it, you just have to follow the steps, that was really easy this way."

Alan took the paper and read it and a smile appeared on his face : "It's Ian isn't it ?"

Kevin just nodded and Alan said to him giving back his paper : "Ian is the youngest alchemy teacher in the Sun Sect and a true genius at crafting potions, you couldn't have had a better teacher.

He's also a very good friend of mine so you will probably run into him outside of class as well. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask him, he will answer you for sure."

Kevin had suspected it a little since Ian had mentioned Alan when they were talking together, so he said : "Great, actually, I really enjoy working this way, it's very efficient and you don't waste time."

Alan chuckled and then he said more determinated than ever to be Kevin's tutor : "Did Axel warn you that I had made a request to become your tutor ?"

Kevin nodded and asked : "That would be really great, when will you get an answer ?"

Alan laughed and said to him : "So eager to learn um, that's good ! To answer your question, maybe in a week or two, but I'm sure they'll let me be your tutor, so prepare yourself for a hard training."

Kevin laughed heartily too, working hard had never been a problem to him, and when he nodded Alan could see how serious he was while looking at his eyes.
