Chapter 176: Didn't want to shatter Axel's illusions

Kevin thought about what Axel had just told him about this girl, and indeed, if she really possessed a good control over her Chakra, with the control Ashton already had of his Soul force they would make a very good duo.

He said to Axel with a satisfied smile : "You're right she seems perfect for Ashton."

Axel then asked him curiously : "If you want us to go train at Tony's shop, does that mean you won't be meditating or crafting potions ?"

Kevin wasn't really sure either so he said to him : "I need to go with you to see if this way of training is really effective, and once I'm sure we can train him properly in this gravity room, I will let you handle the rest of his training and I'll craft potions.

It would be a waste of time to meditate anywhere but at home, our small magical crystal of legendary grade really makes a big difference."

Axel then lifted his chin with his hand and kissed him on the lips before telling him because they had finally arrived home : "You will do as you wish babe.

I'm going to prepare the bath for you, make some quick food, don't forget that we need to stay in there for at least an hour, it's the minimum for your body to recover."

Kevin nodded and before beginning to cook he went to get their baby phoenix and he set it up on the kitchen table, his lava stones were already starting to darken, and when Axel arrived in the kitchen he saw Kevin watching their future baby and he asked him because he looked thoughtful : "What are you thinking babe ?"

Kevin looked at him and beckoned him to come have a look : "You see, the lava stones are already starting to blacken.

I feel like his growth has accelerated since your father allowed him to tap into the fire and light particles of our pavilion. At this rate it's going to hatch soon, don't you think so ?"

Axel came and hugged him from behind and he then said to him : "I don't know babe, but I can't wait for him to be born, I'm sure he'll be too cute."

Kevin didn't know if he would be too cute, he just hoped he wouldn't be too dangerous.

Axel really seemed to think he would be totally harmless but this phoenix was still a legendary creature and even Liam didn't know what a baby phoenix would be capable of.

All they knew was that even at birth this phoenix would already possess the knowledge of its ancestors.

Kevin, who didn't want to shatter Axel's illusions, said to him : "I am lazy to cook honey, we still have some ready meals to heat up, let's eat them now, okay ?"

Axel immediately said to him : "Good idea, like that you can stay longer in the bath, I already warned Erik to meet us here at 1.30pm and I also warned Tony that we will come to train at his place.

These communication stones are really helpful, I wonder how those in the organization communicate with each other without them."

While Kevin went to warm up their dishes, he told him his theory : "These communication stones are double-edged. They are of course very useful to be able to communicate with each other and thanks to them we can coordinate and stay in touch with everyone.

But they are so practical and discreet that it is impossible to unmask a traitor who uses them.

I think that after the assassination of the former bearer of the Pentagram Mark, the Queen had to ban the communication stones from the organization because they found them too dangerous.

Even Liam didn't seem to have one before, and from what I understood only Tony and Caleb had one.

So to keep the people in the organization in touch, I think they use exactly the same means we want to use to create a secure path through the territory of humans and demons, Teleportation Talisman papers of short distances."

Axel who had joined him thought that what Kevin had just said made sense so he took the dishes he had just heated up and he put them on the table in silence lost in his thoughts.

And as they both began to eat he asked him again : "I can understand why Tony and Caleb have a communication stone, after all without them the organization might not even exist.

Thanks to you I'm beginning to understand the importance of a good distribution and intelligence network, but why didn't Liam have one then ?"

Kevin answered him honestly : "I'm not sure myself, maybe he just didn't need one for his missions and maybe the organization never had many.

After all, we can only find them in the demons territory and I don't know how close Solomon and Kerry's uncle was to Xander."

Axel then realized what he had just done and immediately apologized to him : "Sorry babe, I'm asking you all these questions like you're supposed to know all the answers when you've only just arrived in our world."

Kevin chuckled and said : "I don't mind at all honey, ask me as many questions as you want, I will always answer you honestly.

But remember, these are just guesses of my part, if you want real answers to your questions, you should ask Liam directly."

Axel smiled at him and said : "You're right, I'll ask him ... Just to check how brilliant my man is."

Kevin smiled in spite of himself and motioned for him to eat while it was hot and Axel went back to eating right after stealing a kiss from him.

Once in the bathroom, their bodies immersed in the water of their small pool, Axel then proposed to him : "We have one hour left before Erik arrives, if you want to take advantage of it to meditate do not hesitate I hold you firmly, nothing will happen to you."

Kevin had not thought about it but Axel was right, he could kill two birds with one stone, while his body would be recovering he could indeed meditate, it would still be an hour gained for tonight.

Kevin then took out one of the blank Lightning Talisman that he had placed directly in his inventory to be more convenient and he said to Axel as he placed the Talisman on the edge of the pool next to them : "You're right honey, I hadn't thought about it but it will be one hour saved compared to what I will have to do tonight when I get home."

Axel smiled, obviously his suggestion was not innocent, he knew that Kevin absolutely wanted to do his 3 hours of meditation and his 3 hours of fighting per day, and so tonight he would be able to enjoy his man for an hour more if he meditated now.
