The three of them were still tense, and Alan then asked him : "Are you sure that the presence is gone ?"

Kevin said to them in a confident tone : "I'm sure of it, you can relax now !"

Erik exclaimed then : "Holy shit ! But what the hell was that ... Kevin, you know I really admire you, but sometimes you are really creepy."

Kevin scratched the back of his head a little embarrassed he hadn't meant to be scary but he also knew that Erik hadn't said it to upset him so he frowned again and he told them : "He was heading towards our phoenix egg, I hope he didn't do anything to him ..."

This time it was Alan who interrupted him : "Damn, you don't feel that Kevin ?"

Kevin came to stand next to him and asked him puzzled : "What's wrong ?"

Alan then said to them : "Okay, everyone sit down, with Kevin we have to check something and we have to go into meditation to be able to do it."

They all sat down obediently, and Axel came to position himself behind Kevin and wrapped his protective arms around his waist, he asked Alan : "Why do you have to go into mediation, and why do you need Kevin, can't you do it alone ?"

Alan then said to him : "Of course I can do it alone ! There is something that has changed in the spiritual energy around us, to know what's going on, I need to meditate, and two opinions are better than one, that is why I want Kevin to also go into meditation and to tell me what he will have seen there."

Axel wasn't too happy about it but Kevin didn't give him the time to argue, he nodded immediately and leaned his body against his to find a comfortable position.

Kevin was way too curious to miss this chance to see something unusual, he quickly closed his eyes and after some breathing he saw the first particles appear.

He couldn't believe it, he could see them everywhere and all the colors were there, the difference between the two magical crystals was really huge, the last time he had seen so much particles was when he had used his Warrior Spirit skill.

It didn't take long for him to figure out what Alan meant, all the fire and light particles were being sucked into a black hole that was exactly where the phoenix egg was, it couldn't be a simple coincidence.

He came out of his meditation and Alan was already looking in the direction of the egg, so he asked him : "When exactly did you feel the change in the spiritual energy around us ?"

Alan turned to him and confessed : "I started to feel it right after you threw your dagger, but I didn't pay too much attention at the time.

When whoever was there left, the feeling that something was wrong with the spiritual energy around us intensified."

Axel then asked them : "What did you find out ?"

Kevin didn't know if it was a good or a bad thing so he said : "Our phoenix egg is absorbing all the fire and light particles that are around us ... Maybe the presence that I felt was not an enemy after all."

This time it was Erik who asked : "What makes you say that ?"

Kevin then said to them : "Whoever came to our pavilion was powerful enough that none of you could detect him, but he just stopped my dagger and left as soon as he was discovered.

To be honest, I'm sure he could have beaten us all easily."

Axel asked him because it was the only thing that made sense after what had just happened : "You think the fact that the presence has come here and the fact that our baby phoenix suddenly absorbs the fire and light particles is not a coincidence, do you ?"

Kevin nodded and looked at Alan who seemed lost in his thoughts : "What do you think Alan ?"

Alan at the mention of his name, came out of his thoughts and explained to them : "I think Kevin is right, this presence wasn't there to harm us.

I think he came to help the phoenix egg to connect to the spiritual energy around us.

We already have the lava stones that help his growth, but remember that the elements he has an affinity with are the fire and light elements.

There's no way this egg could have created that black hole you saw Kevin, it's definitely the work of that person who was here."

Erik then asked curious : "Why doesn't he show up then ?"

Kevin then said hoping he wasn't wrong : "Because maybe now wasn't the right time, if that person wants to help us, he will show up eventually, I'm sure of it."

Kevin didn't want to say more, because if it wasn't Axel's father as he assumed to be, but someone else, and that he had given to Axel a false hope of being able to see his father, he would feel terrible.

He asked Alan again : "There is no danger to our 'baby phoenix', is there ?"

He had used the same expression Axel had used to call the phoenix egg and Axel rewarded him with a kiss on his neck, it was worth it.

Alan shook his head and said to them : "There is no danger, on the contrary, he will only be more powerful.

Legendary creatures are born with the knowledge of their ancestors, at least we have been taught that, so he should know what to do with all these particles, we don't have to worry for him, maybe he will hatch faster thanks to this, who knows."

He stood up and motioned to Erik that this time it was okay they could go back home.

When Erik got up, Alan grabbed his collar and he pulled him against his body before kissing him fiercely, he said to him : "You should focus your attention on me sweetheart, I'm still really hungry."

Erik immediately blushed and grabbed his hand to drag him to the exit, exclaiming : "Damn Alan, if you could just wait until we are alone to say this sort of thing."

Alan chuckled and turned around one last time to say to them : "See you tomorrow guys."

Then he grabbed Erik by the waist and threw him over his shoulder before disappearing.

When Alan and Erik left Axel and Kevin laughed so hard that their abs were hurting them, Axel then said to him : "Poor Erik, Alan looks like he is in great spirit, I don't think he will be able to sleep much tonight."

Kevin then asked him curious : "Alan has always been like this with him ?"
