My Mage System (BL)

Kevin smiled and he freed himself from his embrace to climb onto his back.

He said : "Let's hurry then, I'd rather spend my time alone with you."

Axel had really been thrilled to hear that and as he ran to the Sun Sect, Kevin was really filled with emotions.

On the one hand, he was eager to learn alchemy and how to create a spell, and on the other hand, he wanted to be able to always stay with Axel.

He who had always felt alone all his life even when he had had people around him, suddenly that feeling of being just an empty shell had disappeared.

And all this was thanks to Axel who made him discover an avalanche of feelings and emotions completely unknown to him.

Axel heard him sigh and he asked him what was going on but Kevin didn't answer him, and he just hugged him a little tighter.

Axel found his behavior odd but he didn't insist, Kevin was allowed to keep things to himself as long as he didn't push him away.

Once there, Kevin got off his back and to Axel relief he seemed perfectly fine, he then guided him, introducing him to the different buildings of the Sun Sect.

He had never been to a university but he imagined it must look like this, everyone they met looked so carefree, some were excited and some were nervous but there was a very good general atmosphere.

There was a dormitory, buildings reserved for mages, an arena and a gymnasium for the fighters, as for the library, the canteen and the warehouse they were common to all.

Axel asked him for his schedule and since tomorrow would be Friday, Axel showed him where the building that the mages were using for alchemy classes was located.

Axel also told him that he would be able to resell the potions he would make in the warehouse and that it was Douglas who was handling all of this.

After this little walk around, they went to the warehouse because that was also where they could buy ready-made meals and everything needed to cook.

The warehouse was divided into several sections, there was a food section, a section for mages and a section for fighters.

Kevin was familiar with everything on the fighters side, however, he looked curiously at the shelves full of vials of different colors and magical herbs of all kinds that were in the mages section.

There were also some parchments of different colors and different sizes, and he asked Axel if he knew what it was, but it was a familiar voice that answered him instead : "These parchments are called talisman papers, and they are useful for mages who already have a good control over their meditation, and can absorb a lot of particles.

The different colors represent the different elements and you will use them to concentrate particles of elements inside them.

These talisman papers are used by mages when they have exhausted their reserve of Soul force, and therefore can't continue to create spells.

They are very useful during fights, because you can create spells using directly the particles store inside."

Kevin exclaimed pleasantly surprised : "Uncle Douglas !"

And he added looking at these parchments with sparkling eyes : "So amazing !"

Douglas laughed and greeted them, then he said to Kevin : "Don't worry, tomorrow many of your questions will be answered, my knowledge is limited to the bare minimum so I can't go into details with you, sorry about that."

Axel told him then : "Thank you Douglas, it was already a lot more than I could have taught him ... I was showing him around and actually we came here to buy some food."

Douglas nodded, smiling and told them he would wait for them at the counter to cash them.

Axel and Kevin then went to choose the food, and Axel let him handle it, after all he had never cooked before and he truly had no idea what to buy.

Kevin who had already observed Axel's preferences when he was eating with him did the shopping according to what they both liked to eat and as he had already warned Axel, he also buy some ready-made meals.

Kevin figured that they had just bought food for a week and it didn't even cost them a gold coin, that was cheap or maybe it was because they had lot of money that he thought that way.

Kevin had already experience to be poor and to be rich in his past life and he had learnt very well his lesson from his past life.

Money could give you power but in the end it was only by being powerful enough that you could protect yourself, he didn't care much about money, it was just a tool for him.

Being an assassin, not by choice but because it was his only way to survive in his world, and the fact of having been hunted down in recent years, he would have preferred to exchange all of his wealth for this life sooner if someone had given him the chance.

Once back in their pavillon Kevin didn't feel like cooking, it had been a long day and it was already 8pm, so they warmed up some food and ate in silence.

It was not an awkward silence, they were both just wrapped up in their own thoughts.

The good thing about ready-made meals was that there were no dishes to do, and Axel was very keen to go take their bath now, but he could see that something was bothering Kevin so he asked him : "Kev, is something bothering you, can I help you ?"

Kevin hadn't realized that he had somehow isolated himself in his bubble so he said as he approached Axel and put his arms behind his neck : "I'm sorry if I have behaved strangely, this world is still new to me and I'm still adapting.

There are a lot of things going on in my head, and if you really want to know I mostly have two thoughts that disturb me."

Axel was glad that Kevin opened up to him so he said while stroking his lower back : "I want to know Kev, tell me more."

Kevin then said to him very honestly : "I am very excited because tomorrow I will start to learn to really be a mage but at the same time, I am not in a hurry to be there because it will mean that we won't be together."

Axel froze, he hadn't expected that sort of thing, he thought maybe Kevin was regretting his old life, or missing his world, but not something like that.

What Kevin then said stunned him even more : "The second thing is that it's going to take me a long time to be able to become strong enough to protect you, right now I feel weak and I don't like at all that feeling."
