Kevin finally opened the System holographic screen and there were just too many messages, and like the last time, just after thinking how annoying it was, the messages disappeared and a new one appeared.

Axel was very satisfied with this result, helping Kevin to kill stronger monsters was indeed the right thing to do to help him to level up quickly, he said : "6 levels all at once, it's awesome babe. Do you want me to use the fire spell of my sword now ?"
Kevin looked at him surprised, he was thinking doing this when all the monsters would have been killed, so he asked him : "Is it safe enough here ? Are you sure the dungeon boss isn't going to send us more summoned creatures ?"
Axel nodded and said : "I'm sure, the dungeon boss will surely try to summon as many creatures as possible to protect himself, and even if he does send some here, I can take care of them alone, don't worry ... So, do you want to do this now ?"
Kevin forgot sometimes that Axel was really strong and that whatever happened he would protect him, it was such a great feeling.
A bright smile appeared on Kevin's face when he thought that soon he would have an affinity with the 5 elements, he replied to him promptly : "Sure, let's do this now !"
Axel put his arm on Kevin's shoulders happy that he trusted him to guard him and then he guided him to the entrance of the room which was now completely empty.
Axel positioned himself in front of him and took his artifact sword, he focused his chakra inside the blade of his sword and when it turned to a blazing red, he made a sword movement as if he wanted to slice an enemy in two and a huge wave of fire swept through the room.
What the hell, thought Kevin, the destructive power of this attack was sensational, he pondered and stopped Axel who was about to launch his second attack, he said to him : "Axel wait, let me try to copy your attack, I want to know what the System will tell me about your fire spell."
Axel nodded : "Let me know when you're ready."
Kevin activated his observation skill again and he told Axel that he was ready. When Axel launched his attack a message popped up.
[ Fire spell level 5 : Inferno Fire, need 2 400 Soul force points to activate the observation skill, your Soul force reserve is insufficient to copy this spell. ]
Kevin couldn't believe his eyes, no kidding, a fire spell level 5 ! When Axel asked him if it had worked Kevin just shook his head and told him : "I don't have enough Soul force reserve to copy it. Axel, this is a fire spell level 5 call Inferno Fire, I need 2 400 Soul force points to be able to copy it."
Axel looked surprised and repeated : "A fire spell level 5, wow I didn't know it !"
Kevin sighed helplessly but when he looked at him, Axel could see the determination in his eyes when he said : "I have still a long way to go, but whatever hardship I will have to go through it's completely worth it."
Axel nodded and said : "I will be there to support you babe."
Kevin smiled at him and said : "I know you will ! Axel, do it one more time and that should be enough."
In fact, Kevin was sure there were enough fire particles in the air already, but he wanted to see that sublime attack one more time.
A thought just crossed his mind, did that mean that when he would have enough Soul force he could create that kind of spell ? Too awesome !
Of course, he already knew that being a mage would be a plus for him and Axel, but to imagine he was going to be able to do that sort of thing was just beyond his expectation.
When Axel had finished launching his last attack, Kevin asked him : "Do you want a potion to recover your chakra points ?"
Axel shook his head and said : "No need babe, I still have enough chakra reserve … Go ahead and take the time you want, there is no rush."
Kevin walked over to the middle of the room and sat down cross-legged.
He didn't put his hood over his head because he knew Axel didn't like it, and then he closed his eyes and focused on the spiritual energy around him.
He could see the usual colored particles but he didn't absorb them and he continued to focus until he could finally see the ones he was looking for.
The fire particles were red and they were very bright, he began to absorb them and a comforting warmth spread throughout his body.
My god, it was a nice feeling. He had always worshiped the heat and there he felt like he was on a deserted beach enjoying a good sunbath.
He only focused on the fire particles and more and more of them were appearing, but it was no wonder with the power of the spells Axel had cast.
At the end of his hour of meditation the usual messages appeared.
[ Congratulations, you have just completed the Daily Quest : Strengthen your Soul force, the reward has been sent. ]

He came out of his meditative state and stretched out like after a good nap, but he stopped dead when he saw that Axel was sitting right in front of him and he was devouring him with his eyes.
