He moved everything into his own magic bag, because the one he had with him was much bigger than the one of this guy, it was like he had room of 100 square meters to store his belongings.
He had received this magic bag from the headmaster of the orphanage and it contained only some clothes, 20 gold coins to apply for recruiting for the Sun Sect, and a book with a pentagram on it that he had received two days ago for his birthday.
The headmaster of the orphanage had told him that his parents had made him promise to give him this book when he would reach eighteen and that he would then have to try to be recruited by a sect.
He also had told him that his parents seemed concerned for his safety and that was why he ended up in this orphanage, those 20 gold coins was also part of what his parents had left for him.
From Kevin's memory he could see that he was in a completely different world that the one he used to live in.
Here there were no guns or any advanced technology he was used to, everything was replaced by magic.
This world was ruled by three different races, humans, shapeshifters, those who were capable of assuming the appearance of animals, and their sworn enemies were demons.
The humans and shapeshifters could become mages or fighters and the shapeshifters were slightly stronger than humans, but there were still humans who were very talented and could surpass the shapeshifters.
The demons were the strongest race but they were fewer because of their low reproduction rate, so the humans and shapeshifters could still repress them, at least that was all what he could find out from Kevin's memory.
Well, now he had to choose his next step into this new world and quickly, he could not stay longer in this alley and take the risk of being discovered with a corpse at his feet.
Entering into this sect indeed looked like his best option at the moment, Kevin's knowledge of this world was too limited and by the time he grew strong enough to be able to protect himself on his own, the sect seemed to be the perfect place to train and to be safe at the same time.
Even though he didn't like depending on others, he was going to have to make an exception because this world was far too different from his, and until he understood how it worked, he would stay safe in this sect.
Once his decision was taken, and before leaving this alley, Kevin changed his clothes that were dirty by the blood he had just lost and put on clothes that could go everywhere to be able to disappear more easily in the crowd.
He also chose a sweater with a hood that went down in front of his eyes and thus hid half of his face.
After that, Kevin came out into the main street and after mixing into the crowd like the shadow he used to be, he walked towards the main square.
Recruitment for the Sun Sect had drawn a lot of people. Kevin after giving it some serious thought, had decided to queue for the Mages recruitment.
He could have queued to become a fighter but it would have been a waste of time for him.
His combat skills probably exceeded those of their instructors, he might as well train on his own.
On the other hand, becoming a mage would undoubtedly be an added value for him. Moreover, there was this book that 'his parents' had left him and which seemed to be linked to magic.
Kevin had already tried to open it but he had failed miserably, the reason why he failed was because this book seemed to be sealed.
He would have to take a look at it later, no lock had ever stood up to him, and he was eager to discover the contents of this book.
Listening to the conversations around him he understood that he had to pass a test to enter this sect, not everyone was admitted, and not everyone could become a mage.
According to Kevin's memory, a mage had to possess a soul force and at least an affinity with one of the five elements, which were, wind, water, earth, fire, lightning.
He didn't know if he met these prerequisites, but at worst he would enter as a fighter, whether or not he was a mage wouldn't change his plans at all.
When his turn finally came, the young man in front of him asked him exactly the same questions as the others : "Your name, your age and is anyone in your family already a mage ?"
He replied politely : "My name is Kevin, I am eighteen years old, and I am an orphan so I have no idea if there is a mage in my family."
The young man looked at him and said apologetically : "I'm sorry, I have to ask these questions, it's part of the recruiting protocol."
Kevin again replied politely : "There is no problem, and sorry that I couldn't answer your last question."
The young man shook his head and smiled at him, handing him his registration form : "No, no, I'm the one who is sorry, you just have to go over there and find a free tent to take your test … Good luck Kevin."
Kevin smiled at him and nodded before heading to the spot he had pointed out to him.
One of the tents had just opened and the young man who had come out of it did not seem to have passed the test given his crestfallen face.
Kevin waited a bit in front of the tent veil, wondering if he should just walk in or wait for someone to invite him inside.
Luckily he didn't have to wait long as a deep, masculine voice invited him in.
He walked in and he saw an unmistakably handsome man who looked really bored. From this man exuded an aura of power that had to intimidate many people.
Kevin looked at him straight in the eye and walked over to the table that was in front of this man, then he handed him his registration form and waited quietly.
This man had remained impassive but Kevin was used to this kind of person and he saw a glimmer of curiosity in his magnificent gray eyes.
The man motioned for him to sit down and looked at his registration form, he said : "Kevin, do you know the two instruments in front of you ?"
He looked at the two instruments in front of him and unfortunately Kevin didn't know any of them. There was one that looked like a gauge and the other looked like a crystal ball.
He honestly said : "No, but I can guess what they are for."
