Ian continued while staring dead serious at his students : « Kevin is an orphan and therefore has never cultivated his Soul force reserve before, and with only a Soul force of 180 and absolutely no knowledge of how to use it, he was the first one to finish his potion and it was perfectly executed.
Now get back to work, and the next one who blatantly laughs at another student in my class will be kicked out not a week but a full month !"
Kevin smiled, he hadn't made a mistake, he really liked this teacher, with him he was sure he could improve quickly.
Kevin refocused on crafting his potion, this time he didn't need to reread his teacher's detailed formula, having done it once already had allowed him to memorize the crafting process.
After having prepared all the ingredients like the first time, he started to craft the Healing potion and exactly 20min later he heard the System sound echoing in his head again.
He checked the message and as he had expected, he succeeded to craft his second potion, and he had just gained again 10 exp points and 1 Soul force point.
Those rewards were truly amazing and it was only for the potions low grade … When he would be able to craft the medium grade ones, the rewards should get better too hopefully.
He checked the time on the main menu of the System and it was already 10.23am, he then raised his hand to attract the attention of his teacher who immediately came to see him as he was free.
And Kevin asked him curious about something : "Teacher Ian, with the ingredients provided to us by the Sun Sect, how many potions low grade of each kind can we craft ?"
Ian smiled kindly to him and said : "I was planning to give this information at the end of my class but as you asked I will answer you now.
With the ingredients you have gotten from the Sun Sect, you can make 3 potions of each kind, if you want to train and do more, you will have to go and buy the necessary ingredients in the warehouse.
If you don't have any money, don't worry though, with the potions you just made you will make a lot of money, the ingredients to craft a potion low grade cost only 1 gold coin and you can resell it for 20 gold coins."
Kevin was very surprised so he asked : "If we can really make 3 potions of each kind that's 45 potions in all, why then it only cost us 15 gold coins ?"
Ian nodded in satisfaction and said : "Smart ! The Sun Sect has decided of this prize so that even students like you, who come from a disadvantaged background, can study without worrying about money.
If you are good at alchemy, being a mage is a very profitable profession. There will always be fighters to buy your potions, or mages who would rather buy ready-made potions than make them to focus on creating spells.
As for the fighters, they have to go to fight in dungeons to earn money, and the more skilled they are, the more they are allowed to participate in those expeditions.
The Sun Sect is a very good sect, it's not the same everywhere believe me, I hope you will like to be with us Kevin."
Kevin was really thrilled by this new world and crafting potions was really fun, he then thought to Axel and answered honestly with a big smile : "I like it already teacher ... And your detailed formula is exceptionally well written, it's very easy to learn that way."
He exchanged a few more banalities with his teacher before the latter finally left and he immediately began his hour of meditation. He couldn't wait to tell to Axel about his morning, it had been really exciting.
After a hour, when Kevin saw the familiar message appear in front of his eyes, he immediately closed the holographic screen whitout checking it properly, and came out of his meditation.
He barely had time to hear the teacher Ian tell everyone to try and keep practicing until they managed to craft successfully the Healing potion after each attempt, and then he dismissed them saying that Monday they would learn how to craft the Spirit potion low grade.
Kevin quickly put his things into his magic bag and pulled his hood over his head, then he mingled with the other and disappeared into the crowd of students without anyone noticed him.
Kevin spotted Axel immediately, he was so used to check first if there was a threat hidden in the shadows that he saw him standing in a corner a little away from the crowd right away, and to his great displeasing he was talking to a young man who had red hair and who was rather very handsome.
He felt so jealous that this feeling surprised him, he was definitely not prepare to see Axel with another man, and luckyly for this guy, Axel had forbidden him to wear his daggers and blades, otherwise he wasn't sure how he would have reacted.
Well, that wasn't true … If he wanted to be really honest with himself, he would have already threw a blade to this man if he had them with him.
He really hoped for this young man that he was Erik or he wasn't sure if he could restrain himself to … He really needed to calm down his heartbeat and his restless mind or Axel would ask him what was wrong with him.
And how was he supposed to answer this question … I was so jealous that I wanted to kill your friend right in spot … He wasn't sure his man would like that so it was better to calm down first.
And to do it he thought that Axel must have stepped aside on purpose so as not to attract to much attention, after all he was very popular and it could become very annoying if everyone wanted to greet him.
Axel immediately smelled Kevin's scent and he looked up trying to find him through the crowd of students who were leaving the building.
Kevin had seen that he was looking for him so he decided to make himself visible, and he took off his hood to keep the promise he had made to him.
He went down the steps and when he saw the smile on Axel's face when he found him through the crowd, all his fears and doubts he just had about this man, vanished immediately.
Axel opened his arms and Kevin came to hug him tight, he heard his voice close to his ear : "Babe, I missed you."
