My Mage System

As Kevin was finishing to write his list, Axel chuckled and said to him : "You are really planning to do all of this babe ... a recovery time is made to rest, not to exhaust yourself further."

Kevin turned his head towards him and after smiling at him he came to rub his nose against his and then he kissed him tenderly.

When he ended their kiss he said to Axel still smiling : "Everything that is on my list requires no effort on my part … I can go to see Tony using a giant bird, I can coach all three of you without having to fight against you, sorting my inventory doesn't require any particular effort and I have clearly written 'to find a solution with Alan to be able to craft our weapons with the Trinium', I didn't write that I was going to start introducing particles in Talisman papers."

Axel laughed heartily and hugged him saying : "Okay, Okay, I got it babe ... By the way, why do you want to go to see Tony ?"

Kevin answered him honestly : "I need some information to be able to free the Queen and her sister, we don't have much time to prepare, I need the help of professionals."

Axel looked at him puzzled and asked him : "What kind of professionals ?"

Kevin smiled at him and replied : "The kind that you can buy with money, and who will be quick and discreet."

When he saw that Axel was still perplexed he said to him : "I need to find either a spy who is already inside the palace and who wishes to help the Queen to escape, or an assassin who can go unnoticed and gather the information I need to free her and her sister."

Axel preferred to be honest with Kevin and he said to him : "Babe, I don't think Tony knows that kind of person though, how and why would he know spies and assassins ?"

Kevin looked at him seriously and he caressed his cheek not sure how Axel would react to the truth : "Don't be so sure honey, there is some kind of base code for all assassins and I guess it's the same here.

When Tony told me he knew a lot of people and that, if we ever needed to find something he could make his network work for us … Believe me honey, Tony ain't someone as simple as you think."

Axel looked at him a little surprised by this discovery and he wasn't sure what to think anymore : "I never thought Tony could be related with that kind of people."

Kevin decided not to take offense, after all, he had been part of 'that kind of people'.

So instead, he chose to teach to Axel a few things : "Honey, there are many kinds of assassins like there are different kinds of people, some are good and some are bad.

Some do it for money, others for revenge, or just for fun.

Those who do this for money are the only ones who can be counted on, those who do it for fun are generally psychopaths and those who do it for revenge, either die trying to get revenge, or stop everything once their revenge is over.

But killing human beings for revenge also makes them psychologically unstable."

Axel then asked him : "Were you doing this for money ?"

Kevin continued to caress his cheek, Axel hadn't push him away, he seemed only curious so he told him : "I killed my first targets when I was 15, I was a kind of bounty hunter, unlike other assassins, I always chose my targets myself, and it has always been criminals.

Everyone was trying to recruit me to do their dirty job, but I only dealt with the criminals, I have never dealt with politics, except when the politicians were becoming the criminals."

He added because when he thought about it, he had to kill other people to survive too : « And for my survival, I also had to kill, mercenaries, soldiers, other assassins, sometimes innocent people were involved and found themselves trapped between our fights.

I always tried to minimize my social interactions and always chose isolated places as a base, so that there were as few people as possible around me.

In my home world, the communication systems were very evolved and I didn't need to be present to lead the group of assassins who worked with me.

When I became the man to kill, I dissolved our group and played the bait to give them the time to settle elsewhere.

The men I trained must still be alive and continue to do what we used to do ... When I died, they were still all alive."

Axel nodded, he had never thought too much about it before, of course Kevin had never hidden from him that he had been an assassin, and that he had been the best assassin in his world with that, but oddly his behavior didn't correspond at all to the image he had of an assassin.

And he had finally understood why, even though he had been a assassin, he had never lost his integrity and he had always killed only those who deserved it or those who threatened his own survival.

He still didn't know who had made him become an assassin, but he felt relieved that his Kevin had always been a good person, until the end he had protected people and his men.

He saw that Kevin looked a little tense so he took Kevin's hand with which he was caressing his cheek and he put it on his heart, he then put his hand behind his head and he kissed him passionately.

Kevin hadn't expected this kind of reaction, he had thought that Axel might regret his choice to become the man of an assassin and he was already ready to plead for his case because he really didn't want to loose him.

So, when Axel finally let him breathe after that fiery kiss he asked him curious to know what he was thinking : "Aren't you disgusted or disappointed after what I just told you about me."

Axel looked at him surprised and he replied : "On the contrary, I am even more proud to be your man, you may have been an assassin but you were protecting the people of your world in your way, and you continue to do it here. You also saved us all in this dungeon, without you we would never have made it out alive."

Kevin then came to snuggle in his arms, the words Axel had just spoken had touched him deeply, no one had ever understood him better than him.
