Chapter 81: You have reached level 25

Axel looked at him with a beaming smile on his face, he put his hand on his abs which were strating to be visible and he caressed him in a tender way.

After admiring his body full of his hickeys he said : "Don't worry, I will take good care of you babe."

Axel then added to prepare him and to appease him : "The next few times will be less painful for you babe, your body will get used to it."

Axel then straightened up and carried him as usual, and kevin nestled in his powerful arms resting his head in the crook of his neck.

He was so dead tired, and every part of his body was paining, but fortunately for him Axel was a caring boyfriend.

Axel went straight to the bathroom and after helping Kevin to wash up, he told him to wait for a bit and he returned to their bedroom to get the bag of magical herbs that Alan had given to him.

Once back, he emptied it in their pool of hot spring water, and a few minutes later, when a good smell spread in the bathroom, Axel carried Kevin again and they entered the pool together.

Kevin finally gave up and fell asleep in his arms as the hot water mixed with the magical herbs was healing his battered body.

Axel was a bit angry with himself, maybe he could have restrained himself a little bit more for his first time, but there was nothing he could do about it, Kevin had this weird effect on him.

It was like he was awakening his animal urges while he was still in his human form, it had never happened to him before and he knew that now only Kevin could satisfy him.

After 40min, Axel decided to get out of the water and he dried them off before going to bed. He then left him a note on the nightstand to tell him to wake him up at 5.30am.

Kevin had like an internal alarm clock and he always woke up at 5.00am, he had explained to him that it had always been like this, and that he rarely slept more than 4 or 5 hours in a row, except in cases of extreme fatigue.

Axel joined him under the blanket and Kevin came mechanically nestled in his arms and he even heard him breathe a sigh of contentment which made him smile, he kissed him on his forehead and he whispered in his ear : "Sleep peacefully babe, I'm watching over you."

Since the hotel incident, he had whispered this sentence to him every night and Kevin hadn't had a nightmare since then.

He didn't know if it was effective or not but as long as Kevin managed to sleep peacefully it didn't matter to him if he had to reassure him every night.

Axel looked at the time and it was only 11.30pm, he said to Alan to meet them at 6.30am in front of their pavilion and he had asked him to come with weapons.

He knew that his cousin, the only member of his family he had kept in touch with, had given him a splendid sword last year when he had won the annual capital's tournament of mages.

This sword alone should increase his Stats enough for what were hidden behind that purple vortex.

Axel before falling asleep, tighten his arms around Kevin's body. He was confident that Kevin would wake him up in time tomorrow morning and he was confident enough in his survival animal instinct to protect him if ever an unexpectedly danger arose.

When Kevin woke up, he lazily checked the time on the main menu of the System and it was 4.30am, curious he thought, he must have fallen asleep earlier than he thought to wake up at this time.

His body was intertwined with Axel's as usual and a bright smile appeared on his face at the memory of the last night.

That was it, with Axel they had taken a step which for him was a definitive one, he just hoped that the day where his Warrior Spirit innate skill would be triggered, it wouldn't frighten him to the point that he would want to run away from him.

When Kevin pulled himself out of his arms and stood up, he was relieved to be able to move his body normally, the pain he had felt after they had made love was completely gone and only few hickeys were still visible on his chest.

It was perfect, he then saw the note on the nightstand and read it 'Babe, thank you for this unforgettable moment it will be forever engraved in my memory … Wake me up at 5.30am for ours next adventures !'.

Kevin couldn't have dreamt for a better wake-up call, he knew he must look like an idiot smiling to himself like that but he couldn't help it.

After putting on a black joggers pants, and as he had some time left, he decided to check how many Soul force points he needed to use the new spells he had managed to copy yesterday.

And when the holographic screen of the System appeared in front of his eyes, he saw that the Quests menu was flashing as if to get his attention.

So, too curious to wait, he chose to start with this menu instead.

Too awesome ! Was the only thought that came to his mind.

He not only would get better Stats and experience points faster, but now he could also tell when a dungeon was going to close thanks to this countdown.

He really hadn't expected this when he decided to control the spells he had copied yesterday, besides, it was time to go take a look at them, so he focused on the Skills menu and the holographic screen immediately changed.
