Axel looked at him in the eyes and he felt the urge to make this man his, he kissed him wildly and said against his lips : "You are mine Kev, I won't let anyone else have you."
Kevin saw that Axel's eyes were starting to get dangerously darker and darker so he pulled away from him and told him to try to calm his man who seemed to be always so horny : "Let's open the rest of the boxes and then we'll decide what to do next."
Axel looked frustrated but he nodded, it was the best distraction Kevin could have found otherwise he would have started again where he left off in the boss room.
He leaned forward to destroy the lock on the high grade box and waited patiently for Kevin to tell him what was inside.
[ HIGH GRADE BOX ]
- 10 500 gold coins
- Purify potion high grade × 10 : allows you to purify your body of all harmful substances, effective against poisons of maximum level 5.
- Mind Protection potion high grade × 10 : allows you to protect your mind against all mental attacks, duration 2 hours.
Kevin frowned and Axel guessed immediately what he was thinking, so he said : "You too think it can't be a coincidence, this System always gives us what we need the most."
Kevin nodded, the purify potion was surely for Axel, to protect him while they would be looting the purple dungeon, as everything was dead around it, there must be something in the air that was toxic.
And the Mind Protection potion was for him to protect his mind against this unknown force that hypnotized him earlier.
He said to Axel : "Yes it's been going through my mind for a while, the fact that my soul has transmigrated into your world in the body of a mage and that System that, like you just said, always gives us what we need the most, it can't be a coincidence.
If we add to that the mark on my chest, the one who sent me here must want to make me as powerful as possible to accomplish something and if there is something that I really hate it's to be somebody else's puppet."
Kevin sighed helplessly and said to Axel : "It doesn't matter though, we can't change that right now, so let's keep enjoying the System and its rewards, what do you say ?"
Axel nodded : "You're right, only by becoming powerful we can protect ourselves, and the System is our best ally at the moment."
Kevin opened the last box and smiled when he saw what was inside.
[ MEDIUM GRADE BOX ]
- 5 000 gold coins
- Medium grade scabbard : + 30 Agility points, + 20 Stamina points.
Kevin looked at Axel and said : "I'll keep it, it'll be to put on the shortsword you just gave me. So, what do we do now ?"
Axel told him what seemed the best to him : "We can go to Tony's first, it should be faster than the last time, and then after that, I think we should invite Alan and Erik to come to dinner with us, sooner we will tell them about you, the better and the easier it will be for everyone."
Kevin nodded : "That's fine with me … Do you think they'll agree to come and loot the dungeon with us tomorrow."
Axel honestly told him what he was thinking : "The one we will have to convince is Alan, he doesn't look like that but he's very protective of Erik and he will never put his life in danger."
Kevin nodded : "It's going to be a lot for them to digest all at once ... It would be a shame to miss this opportunity, but they will have the last word for this one, we can't force them anyway."
Axel agreed with him on this point, and as Kevin had just approved his plan, he slowly began to undress to see how Kevin would react this time.
When Kevin saw that Axel was undressing slowly intentionally to provoke him, he then preferred to turn around or else they would never leave the Wildlands.
Axel was a little disappointed by Kevin's reaction but he vowed to make him regret it when they would be alone at home, he hadn't forgotten anything of their conversation and he was counting on winning his man tonight.
He then shapeshifted into a wolf and when Kevin felt his muzzle push his shoulder, he finally turned and climbed onto his back, he whispered in his ear : "Be patient Axel ! We will have all the time we want tonight."
Right after Kevin whispered this to him, Axel felt relieved and impatient, he sped at lightning speed through the Wildlands and then headed for Dawn city to lead them to Tony's shop.
The sooner they would complete the deal, the sooner they could get home.
What he had completely forgotten was that he was the one to suggest inviting Alan and Erik to dinner.
Once in the city, they headed straight to Tony's shop and since it was Saturday, Tony wasn't there and they were greeted by the same employee as last time, the one Kevin would have already put in his place if Axel hadn't stopped him.
Axel politely asked him if he could go get Tony and the young man immediately left to go tell his boss that Axel and Kevin were there.
Kevin found his behavior strange so he asked Axel : "It's weird the last time I could feel animosity and jealousy coming from him, so why today does he look so welcoming ?"
Axel chuckled and said to him : "I think Tony has praised your merits, all his employees really like him because he pays them very well and takes good care of them, it has always had an excellent atmosphere here, like a family one, that's why I like to come here too.
So if he has told them that you got him out of trouble, they're all going to treat you differently now."
Kevin scratched the back of his head, he felt a little embarrassed, he didn't help him to get any kind of reward, but at least that employee wouldn't cause him any more problem.
Kevin then said to Axel : "I'll go and see if I can find any good axes for Erik, wait for me, I won't be long."
Axel nodded he trusted Kevin completely to pick the axes that would best suit Erik, so he said : "Look for yourself too, maybe there would be a better shortsword."
Kevin wouldn't have thought of it as he always preferred to fight with daggers but he had realized that a pair of shortswords might not be a luxury in this world, especially with what they would have probably to face tomorrow.
He nodded to Axel to let him know that he would look for it, and he walked in the direction where the weapons were located.
Shortly after Kevin left, Tony arrived and he greeted Axel warmly, he immediately asked him where Kevin had gone and Axel told him that he was just looking at the weapons and should be back soon.
Tony then asked him : "Did you come to buy weapons or did you come because you looted a dungeon again ?"
Axel laughed and said : "Actually we came for both, we need to find weapons for a friend of mine, the one I have become the tutor of, and otherwise we just looted a dungeon full of summoned creatures.
Axel handed him his magic bag and Tony looked inside with a greed glint in his eyes that was too hard to hide.
It wasn't his fault though, because every time Axel came in those few days it was the jackpot.
His eyes widened in surprise and he said to Axel : "Shit Axel, if I'm not mistaken these are the bodies of 3 elite knight wizards and even ... A warrior wizard, wow !"
Axel nodded and said : "I have also collected all the armor and weapons and the skeleton bones, although I'm not sure if you can use them."
Tony then said promptly : "No matter what you find in a dungeon, always take everything, I'll take care of sorting it out for you.
The bones of the skeletons summoned by these wizards are used to create dagger handles, or ax handles, weapons made from these bones are always minimum of medium grade so don't worry these bones are valuable."
Tony looked inside the magic bag again and ended up saying to Axel : "1h should be enough for me to give you an estimate, are you okay with that ?"
Kevin who had just returned with 2 axes, a shortsword, a scabbard and some leather straps said to him : "It's perfect Tony, how are you ?"
Tony answered him warmly and then he asked him surprised : "Do you want to buy all this ?"
Kevin nodded and said : "Yes I would like to buy all of this and since we're going to be here for an hour, do you have big sheets of paper and colored pencils on top of that ?"
