Chapter 208 - Getting Stronger

Jeremy asked him : "Tell us exactly what is your plan and what do you want from us."

Tal nodded and explained to them : "We have to wait for this meeting to be able to see how far the demons have infiltrated the powerful clans in Elementary.

I need you and Anthony to spot them and judge their level, then we'll see if we get rid of them directly or if we wait for reinforcements."

Anthony asked him : "Do you know when the meeting is going to happen ?"

Tal said to them : "In five days, during that time, anyone can do whatever they want except for the both of you."

Tal pointed to Anthony and Jeremy and said extremely seriously : "If something happens to you ... Well, I'd rather not think about it.

If you want to go out, bring always someone with you, is that understood ?"

Anthony and Jeremy nodded, they knew they were at the end of the food chain right now, and they didn't want to die so of course they wouldn't take any risk.

Sky asked Tal : "What are you going to do ?"

Tal said to them : "With Onyx we're going to take Arthur with us and we will go to where my clan and Arthur's used to live, I want to see if there are any survivors."

Snow said to them : "Be careful and don't forget Arthur identity has to stay hidden at all cost."

Tal just nodded, he was the only one who had protected Arthur till the girls enter their life, he would never let something happen now, that they are so close of their aim.

When Arthur will be strong enough, he will become the ruler of Elementary as it supposed to be.

Tal then said to everyone : "We will leave tomo morning, there is four bedrooms in this suite so if you are not confortable with that ..."

Tal threw a magic bag on the table and said : "You can still go and book more rooms."

When he had finished, he smiled to Onyx and put his arm around his shoulders leading him to their room.

Lilac was the first to say : "I'm taking Arthur with me."

Arthur obediently followed her and they left in search of a room.

Jeremy went to check curiously what was inside the magic bag, he opened it, and found a mountain of pearls and moon stones.

Celia had explained to them that all worlds had their own currency, and that in most worlds just by selling a few magic pills and a few scrolls to make high level one they could make a fortune.

Jeremy looked at his brother and said : "It's like Celia promised us, money will certainly not be a problem for us anymore."

Anthony looked inside the magic bag curious too.

Indeed, even if he did not know the value of pearls and moon stones in this world, considering the quantity present in the magic bag, he was sure that they would be fine.

Sky suddenly said : "I'm going to share a room with Anthony, if we ever get attacked, it'll be safer that way."

Anthony turned his head to him surprised, he thought he would share the room with Jeremy but if Sky insisted, he told him : "Sky if you want to sleep with me you don't need to find an excuse, just ask."

Sky smiled without responding to his provocation and motioned for him to follow him, Anthony finally followed him and said to his brother : "See you tomorrow."

Jeremy chuckled and said : "Only if you can still get up tomorrow morning."

Anthony answered him without embarrassment : "Celia also gave us some bottles of the lake water, so that shouldn't be a problem."

Sky ended up dragging Anthony with him and they disappeared into one of the rooms of the suite.

Jeremy looked at Snow who was shaking his head looking at him and asked : "What's wrong ?"

Snow said to him : "Nothing, you really look like your sister that's all."

Jeremy smiled and said : "I hope so ... Otherwise, don't worry though, we were just teasing Sky, nothing will happen between them."

Snow looked surprised and asked him : "Why are you so sure about it ?"

Jeremy said to him seriously : "I know my brother well, and we almost lost Cel once before, and during the last battle she was unconscious again.

My brother will spend every second of his free time getting stronger, so I hope that Sky does not expect anything from my brother, otherwise he will be disappointed."

Snow was starting to really like Jeremy, he asked him : "What about you ?"

Jeremy said to him full of determination : "Definitely the same as Anthony, meditate."

Meditate by absorbing Celia's spiritual energy that was inside the green papers, was much more efficient to level up than making magic pills.

......…

Once in their room Anthony decided to be clear with Sky : "You know that nothing will happen right ?"

Sky looked at him and finally looked away, he clenched his fists in frustration but still said to him : "Yes, I know that ..."

Sky remembered vividly what Anthony had told him before they mixed their energies together, that nothing would happen between them.

Only ... Anthony walked past him and he needed to get a clear answer about it, he grabbed his wrist and pushed him gently against the wall.

He slowly let his hand go up his forearm and he immediately felt the electric shocks, he asked him : "These electric shocks, you know what that means don't you ?"

Anthony gently pushed him away and walked over to the bed, he sat on it with his back to the wall being careful to leave enough room for Sky to rest.

He said to him in a serious tone : "Yes, I know what that means, but it doesn't change anything for me."

Sky asked him again, refusing to give up just like that : "If you know that I'm your soulmate, why are you rejecting me then ?"

Anthony looked at him surprised and said, patting the bed next to him : "Come here !"

Sky obediently came to sit next to him and Anthony decided to clarify this misunderstanding : "I never said I rejected you, I just said that nothing would happen between us."

Sky looked at him confused and asked : "What's the difference ?"

Anthony was preparing to meditate and said to him : "Ask me again that question when this demon god would have been killed, and the threat to my sister eliminated."

Anthony took out some green papers of spiritual energy reserve and Sky asked him : "So I have still a chance ..."

Anthony chuckled and said to him : "You are my soulmate, you said it yourself, if there is a person who has a chance with me it is you, be patient that's all, my sister need me I have to get stronger."
