Chapter 233 - A Common Fragrance

Mykael then looked at his son and he said to him : "Even if you are my son you are not yet strong enough to be able to stay in our plane of existence but I can put a temporary shield around you which could save us 30min."

He looked at Kevin wondering what his so smart son-in-law had come up with this time and he asked him curiously : "What is your plan ?"

Kevin didn't know if it would work so he said : "Before we bring this chameleon here I would like to put all the chances on our side, if your men can't find Kelan then we need to be able to track him down using another way."

He then turned to Axel and asked him : "Look, I don't even know if it's possible but can you find a common scent in Alan, Nolan and Dilan."

Axel shook his head and said : "Babe, each individual has their own scent..."

Kevin raised his hand to cut him off and he tried to explain to him what he had in mind : "What I want you to try to do is to find in their scent a fragrance that they would have in common, is this possible ?"

Axel's eyes widened and he asked him to make sure he understood what he wanted him to do : "You want me to decompose their scents to find the fragrances that make them up and try to see if they would all have one in common, is that right ?"

And he finally exclaimed when he understood why Kevin was asking him such a thing : "If I can find one, I can find Kelan following that fragrance, that's brillant."

Kevin said with a smile : "You got it right ... Now, tell me, can you do it ?"

Axel thought about it before telling him : "Maybe, but not here, let's go to the Wildlands, I need to use my legendary wolf form if I want to have a chance of being able to decompose their scents, I might even need to use my demigod bloodline to increase my perception."

Alan then said hastily : "Wait, not so fast, Erik is still unconscious and Ian and Liam haven't come back yet, I don't want to leave him alone ... Can't you find another way ?"

Mykael then said happy to have this opportunity present itself to him so soon : "Actually, there is one."

He looked at Axel and told him what he knew about his mother, hoping he wouldn't ask too many questions, because at the moment he didn't have many answers to give him : "If I can activate the bloodline of your mother, which must be in your genes, then you should be able to do this without any problem.

Your mother was a Werewolf, a legendary creature, and she came from a very powerful lineage.

Let's just say for now that the shapeshifters who can take on the appearance of a wolf are only pale copies of the real Werewolf.

Only those who, like you and Liam, become legendary wolves can claim to look a bit like them."

Axel was curious about his mother but he would have time to ask him questions later, after all his father seemed to want to stay with them, so he said : "Okay, what do you want me to do ?"

Mykael just told him then : "Give me your hand and grit your teeth, I don't know why you can't access it so I can't guarantee it will be painless."

Axel nodded and immediately held out his hand to him, which made Mykael smile, his son hadn't even hesitated for a second, he must really be very close to this Alan.

He took his hand and placed his on the veins of his wrist and then he focused on the various powers that were inside his son.

He could feel his bloodline running through his veins and he decided to use this moment to strengthen it, which would make him more powerful and allow him to use it more often.

Axel immediately felt a flood of power invade his body but curiously he suspected that it wasn't what his father originally wanted to do, because apart from feeling a little dizzy from all this new energy it was not painful, and he hadn't felt any particular change.

Axel had seen his father smile, satisfied, then he had seemed focused again and soon after he had seen him frown, and this time he knew he had finally found what he was looking for.

Mykael, after refocusing on his son's various powers, went back to looking for a seal or something similar that would explain why his son didn't have access to his maternal heritage.

And he had finally found it ... He was surprised at first because the seal was unknown to him and yet it looked strangely familiar at the same time.

Then he remembered that Gwendolyn often drew this symbol and now that he thought about it she had also taught him how to undo it.

Once, instead of drawing it as she used to do she had carved it out of wood and showed him how to do and undo it, so he sent his energy right at that seal and did exactly what she had taught him to do.

And the seal gave way immediately, he placed a force field around Axel while his body was assimilating his new bloodline and he took Kevin by the shoulders to move him away from his son.

He then smiled because he had not been mistaken about Gwendolyn, even if she had deceived him to save her people, she did care about their son, otherwise she wouldn't have taught him how to break the seal.

At least he could tell his son that although he didn't know why his mother had sealed his bloodline, she had also given him the means to break the seal.

And as Axel continued to assimilate his new bloodline Kevin asked him : "Is Axel's mother still alive ?"

Mykael then replied to him : "I don't know son, but I'm looking for her, if I couldn't come earlier it's because there were several things I wanted to find out before coming to join you.

But today watching you I got a lot more answers to my questions than I expected and some were really disturbing."

Kevin nodded and said to him : "You mean the champion that Lilith mentioned and the fact that there may be Acrium in this world."

Mykael frowned and told him : "I always wondered why they were so interested in this world, but the Acrium explains everything."
