When Axel returned, he sat down next to Kevin and put the tray he had filled with different dishes in front of them, Kevin then asked him curiously : "What were you talking about with Alan ?"
Axel blushed and said : "I was asking him what to do if I wanted to live with you.
As I have always been alone that was a question I had never inquired for, but I know that Alan and Erik live together, that's why I asked him what was the best solution."
Kevin put one of his hands on his thigh to reassure him and asked : "So did you find a way for us to live together ?"
Axel looked at him surprised : "Do you agree ?"
Kevin chuckled and told him : "Of course I do, I guess not everyone gets a second chance, so I decided to truly enjoy this new life … And I want to enjoy it with you."
Axel wasn't expecting this confession and his heart raced immediately, since they were in a place full of the Sun Sect people he preferred to remain discreet, so he just put his hand on the one Kevin had placed on his thigh and squeezed it.
He said to him : "Since you're okay with living together, I can ask Douglas. We can rent a small pavilion, it will cost us 10 gold coins per day but Alan told me that for a mage it was the ideal place because the spiritual energy was denser inside the pavilions, and so you will progress faster."
Kevin looked really excited by the idea but as he still didn't say anything he ended up asking him : "So what do you say ?"
Kevin was too excited : "Can we settle down together tonight, or will we have to wait a bit ?"
Axel honestly told him : "I don't know yet Kev, I'll go ask Douglas later. How's your training going ?"
Kevin said to him very proud of himself : "I managed to absorb much more particles, and I can see more frequently the ones of the water and wind element.
As for my body, I already felt some changes and it's very pleasant, I can run faster, longer and without tiring me too much."
Axel ruffled his hair, saying : "That's great Kev."
He then moved his lips silently, and even though Kevin looked surprised, he let him know he understood what he was saying.
Axel still without making a sound said to him : "Like tomorrow we have a free day, would you like to try to find another dungeon ?"
Kevin smiled and said : "I would love that very much."
Axel seemed satisfied with this answer and he told him how his morning had been, then at 2pm they parted again and each went their own way.
Axel went to see Douglas and immediately asked him if he could rent a pavilion for him and Kevin, he didn't hide the fact that Kevin had become his boyfriend and Douglas didn't seem more surprised than that given their interaction together.
He gave Axel two passes, one for himself and one for Kevin and he told him he could choose to pay weekly or monthly and Axel chooses to pay monthly.
No one will find it weird that he pays monthly because everyone knew he was making a good living.
There were still 12 days left before the end of the month so he gave him 120 gold coins and then asked him another question : "Do you have a map of the different territories around the Sun Sect, I would like to buy you one ?"
Douglas hadn't expected this request but he replied : "Of course, I always have some with me, do you want only the one of the different territories around us or would you like also the one of the continent ?"
Axel thought about it, then he said : "Give me both of them, and the more details the better."
Douglas nodded and fetched the two maps for Axel : "The one for the territories around the Sun Sect is 50 gold and the one for the continent is 200 gold."
Axel paid him and Douglas then asked him, "Are you planning to go on an expedition ?"
Axel smiled and put in his magic bag the passes and maps, he said to him : "I'm not sure yet, but these maps will help me to make up my mind. Thanks for your help Douglas, see you later."
Douglas waved his hand at him and Axel was eager to be able to take a closer look at these maps, he was planning to use them to try and find dungeons in the Wildlands.
And for that, he needed a map because he did not know precisely the borders between the different territories. He knew that the Wildlands were surrounded by three Sects, the Sun Sect, the Moon Sect and the Sky Sect.
It was a very dangerous place, but it was known to have a lot of dungeons, and most importantly, it was very wide. He was confident enough in his own skills to keep Kevin safe and it was there that he planned to loot dungeons without the sect knowing.
Axel finally arrived at his post and put his thoughts aside to concentrate on recruiting the new fighters.
Kevin went straight back to his room in the inn and did his workout hour and stretching hour for the second time of the day.
He got the usual message that told him that he had completed his daily quest, Strengthen your body, and when he checked the time it was already 4.20pm, Axel had told him to come around 5.45pm so he just had the time to finish his last hour of meditation.
He got into his bed and began to meditate immediately. An hour later, he finally received the last message of his daily quests for today.
[ Congratulations, you have just completed the Daily Quest : Strengthen your Soul force, the rewards has been sent. ]
[ Summary of your meditation ]
Lightning element level 5 : 4 945 / 20 000
