Chapter 31: The Earth element spell

Kevin was delighted, it had been a long time since he had had so much fun, when they went in the other gallery, and he saw that the monsters that appeared were goblins and knight goblins, he asked Axel : "You told me that the goblin's blood was in great demand, right ?"

Axel confirmed with a simple nod of his head and Kevin then gave him his daggers.

He started to warm up his wrists now protected by the hand wraps, and after winking at Axel who was still wondering what he was up to, he rushed towards the 8 goblins and the 3 knight goblins that were in front of him.

Axel who still had Kevin's daggers in his hands leaned against the mountain wall and watched him fight.

Kevin was a real inspiration, he killed all the goblins by just punching them in the throat or in the heart, when that wasn't enough though, he just simply broke their neck.

He was moving a little faster than before and he was much stronger, it only took him 10min to overcome all these monsters and he had killed them all with his bare hands.

Axel hissed to express his admiration when Kevin was walking back to him and said praising him : "You're sure you want to be a mage, because you would undoubtedly be the best recruit the fighters ever had at the Sun Sect."

Kevin chuckled and said to him : "I'm 100% sure ! Besides, you are already an expectional fighter, it's better for us that I become a mage, so that we will form a perfect and unbeatable couple."

Axel smiled and said : "Are you trying to seduce me with your sweet words ?"

Kevin scratched the back of his head a little bit embarrassed and confessed, blushing : "Maybe ... Well, you're not the only one afraid of being abandoned you know, I'm an orphan too, and even though I was the head of the largest organization of assassins in my world, I have lived alone and trusted no one."

He added sincerely, blushing even more : "I love being with you, I trust you completely and I'm starting to fear that this happiness will suddenly stop if you decide to leave me."

Axel put his hand on his cheek and caressed it, he just wanted to tease him, he didn't know Kevin had the same fears as him.

So, he said without hesitation : "Don't worry, this won't happen."

He took him in his arms and took the opportunity to kiss him for a long time. When he saw that Kevin was staying in his arms not moving, his head in the crook of his neck, he asked him suddenly worried : "Are you okay ?"

Kevin chuckled and then said, after kissing his neck : "I'm perfectly fine, I just want to enjoy this moment a little longer."

Axel then kissed his forehead and tightened his embrace around him, after a moment, he asked him too curious to restrain himself : "Have you made it to level 10 ?"

Kevin pulled away from him and checked his messages. After killing 8 goblins and 3 knight goblins he had received 4 750 gold and 1 560 exp points.

But that wasn't all, a message caught his attention more than the others and he then said to Axel smiling : "Yes, I just got to level 10."

He then read the message to Axel.

[Congratulations, you have just completed the Monthly Quest : Reach level 10 before the end of this month. ]

- Reward 1 : Healing potion low grade × 5

- Reward 2 : Spirit potion low grade × 5

- Reward 3 : Energy potion low grade × 5

Kevin looked at Axel and asked him : "Do you have any idea what these potions are for ?"

Axel then said to him looking stunned : "If that's what I think then these potions are very precious even if they are low grade, the spirit potion must allow to recover Soul force points and the one of energy must allow to recover chakra points, but you should check them Kev just to be sure."

Kevin obediently opened his inventory screen and took out a potion from each, he then said to him after putting them back in his inventory : "You were right, that's exactly it, the spirit potion allows to recover 50 Soul force points and the energy potion 50 chakra points."

He added with a smile : "Plus, the store is now open so we can also buy and sell, I wonder what will be there."

Axel then said to him : "We will have plenty of time to see what is inside, let's keep moving forward, I can't wait to see what other kind of monsters will appear."

Kevin nodded : "You're right let's keep moving."

Axel guided him to another gallery and said : "Those who are coming are for me, and there's no point in negotiating."

Kevin looked curiously towards the back of the gallery and he saw 3 monster notifications appear, they were all elite knight golems and their level were quite impressive, level 36, 42 and 45, Kevin knew his own limits so he said to Axel : "Be careful."

The golems were a heap of large stones stacked on top of each other that looked like a human form.

What surprised Kevin even more was that they didn't have any weapons, but he understood why soon after.

The golems could use spells, and they could throw sharp stones with their hands or their mouths, it was really terrifying.

Luckily, Axel was very skillful and managed to dodge most of their attacks while he simply destroyed the ones he couldn't dodge.

Kevin thought back to his active observation skill, he decided to try to copy the attack spell of the golems and a message popped up instantly.

[ Earth element spell level 1 : throwing stones, need 150 Soul force points to activate the observation skill, Yes / No. ]

Kevin had more than enough Soul force points so he thought yes, and a new message appeared shortly after.

[ Congratulations, you succeed to copy the Earth element spell level 1 : throwing stones. ]

Awesome ! Was the only thought that came to Kevin's mind, all he had to do was find a place where spiritual energy was concentrated with the earth element and he could start using this spell.

Axel after having beheaded the three monsters came back to him with a dazzling smile on his face.

He took him by the waist and twirled him in the air before putting him down on the ground he said to him excitedly : "It was not a box these golems were guarding, it was a highly desirable ore for crafting weapons.

In fact, this is the same ore that was used to craft my sword, it's called Nerudium, and thanks to this ore, we can associate an element with the weapon that will be crafted with, isn't it too cool Kev !"
