Chapter 140 - Feeling Moved
Chapter 140 – Feeling Moved
Liam looked at the potions Alan had just added to the treasure that was already on the table and he felt really moved.
The only things he had ever obtained for his missions were some Teleportation Talisman papers that allowed him to travel 1 000 km, and if he didn't have enough he could only rely on his personal money and his own abilities to come back alive.
But his friends had given him, treasure after treasure, as if it was nothing, just to keep him safe, at least as much as possible.
While Liam was still speechless, Erik suddenly had an idea and said : "You should write down on a sheet of paper the places where you are likely to go, if you don't come back and that we have to go there to get you, we need to have a starting point to start looking for you."
Axel nodded, he thought it was a great idea and Kevin must have been thinking the same because he then said : "Great idea Erik, do it Liam, that will reassure everyone.
And once the goals are met, don't hang around there and come back immediately, I would rather have you here with us."
Liam nodded, if it could reassure everyone he would do it gladly, he then watched Ian who was taking one of the potions in his hand and look at it hypnotized but he recovered quickly and held out his hand to him, looking at the place where he always put his magic bag.
Liam smiled at him and handed him his magic bag, and when Ian was starting to pack up everything for him, he said : "Use Alan's sheet of paper and pencil to write down the places you might go, and Iet me do this for you."
Liam immediately complied, he knew that the sooner he was leaving the better his chances to find Solomon quickly would be, and apparently Ian was thinking the same.
Once finished, he took back his magic bag that Ian held out to him and he said to him : "I will be back as soon as possible my love I promise you."
Ian then said to him : "You better have to come back safe and sound, understood."
Liam nodded and said : " Don't worry, if something goes wrong you will know it thanks to our Union mark."
Kevin, who had just remembered this detail then said : "If it ever happens Ian, come find Axel and me right away, no matter what time is it, got it ?"
Ian immediately nodded, although it might sound strange, the fact that it was Kevin who was in charge reassured him a lot, even though he had only known him for a short time, his experience was obvious, and he knew he wasn't the kind of person to abandon someone.
Alan also told him : "Don't worry too much Ian, Kevin can buy as many Healing potions legendary grade as he wants and we still have 6 more Teleportation Talisman papers left … Everything will be fine."
Kevin could see that Ian was now more serene and so would Liam too, thanks to that he would be able to focus on his mission without having to worry about him.
He told them when he saw that Liam and Ian were about to get up : "Don't leave now, there are two things left before you can go on your mission, 30 minutes or even one hour more won't make a difference.
The first is the dinner, even if it seems ridiculous, a meal with friends before a mission is important, it will allow you to decompress and you will be full.
The second is … I will get it, wait for me here !"
Kevin got up quickly and returned a few moments later with the blanket that contained the phoenix egg, after placing it on the table and rearranging the lava stones around him he said cheerfully to them : "I present to you our baby phoenix, and as you can see, we have received some help to make his growth as smoothly as possible."
Ian walked over and said : "So cool ! I didn't think I would have the opportunity to see a phoenix egg in all my life … So it was him who was absorbing all the fire particles … And by the way, how come there is a so high concentration of particles in your pavilion, the last time I came it wasn't like this, am I wrong ?"
Kevin laughed heartily and confessed : "That was Erik's idea, we changed our low grade large size magical crystal to one of legendary grade small size, and our baby phoenix doesn't just absorb the fire particles, he also absorbs the light particles."
Liam looked at him curiously and then asked him having a strange feeling about all of this : "When you said that you have received some help to make the phoenix growth go as smoothly as possible, were you talking about the system or is there something else ?"
Kevin's smile widened and he said : "Let's just say that it's not just the demons who can get help from a very powerful person, we also have someone watching over us so don't worry too much."
Liam sensed that Kevin wouldn't say more but he understood better why he had insisted on showing them that phoenix egg, he wanted to make him understand that Ian would be safe with them and that he could leave with a light mind.
He smiled at him and nodded imperceptibly to thank him, after that they all left for the kitchen and Kevin and Erik agreed on a quick recipe and the dinner was ready in no time.
Liam was grateful to be able to share this meal with his friends before leaving, and to know that Ian was now well surrounded.
If he wanted, he could come and share his anguish with them … Before, nobody knew about his secret missions, and so Ian had no one to talk to, Kevin by trusting him had changed a lot of things for both of them.
And Liam really believed that Kevin was the King and leader they had all been waiting for, he truly hoped that when the time would come, he would embrace his destiny.
After dinner Liam and Ian both slipped away, Liam wanted to enjoy his last moments alone with Ian before going on his mission.
They had known each other for 10 years already and it wasn't their first separation but it was the first time he had to leave him since Ian had become his mate, and he just wished they had had more time together.
