My Mage System (BL)-Chapter 49 - Magical Crystals
Finally, Axel put his arm around Kevin's shoulders, it was their break time and he didn't intend to pass his precious time with Kevin talking with others same if it was his very close friends.
Alan understood right away the message and him too wanted to spend his time with his man alone, so he took Erik's chin and asked him while looking in his azure eyes : "Are we going to eat sweetheart ?"
Erik wasn't sure if Alan was really talking about food but he answered him all the same : ? Of course my love, let's go ! ?
Erik then said waving to Axel : "We will meet at 1.30pm as planned, see you later Kevin."
When Alan and Erik were gone Axel said to Kevin : "Sorry I couldn't find anything else so that Alan wouln't be suspicious."
Kevin put his arm around his waist and said : "It was a perfect excuse, well done ... Can we go to the warehouse before we go home, I have to talk to you but it will have to wait until we are alone."
Axel said to him, after quickly kissing him on the lips and while he was guiding him to the warehouse : "Of course let's go, take this opportunity to also choose whatever machines you want to put in our other bedroom."
Kevin did a quick calculation on the way to the warehouse, he could make 7 potions thanks to his actual Soul force points, 20min per potion, it would take him 2 hours and 20min to make them.
Then, he had still 3 hours of meditation to do to earn his 20 experience points, and thanks to his passive recovery skill level 2, 30min of meditation would give him back 150 Soul force points.
So he could still make 6 more potions which would take him another 2 hours, he wasn't sure Axel would agree with his plan but it was worth a try.
When they arrived at the warehouse, uncle Douglas was there and Kevin wasted no time, after greeting him he told him that he wanted to sell his two potions that he had just made during his first alchemy class and that he also wanted to buy the ingredients needed to craft 12 more.
Douglas looked at him puzzled, 12 was no ordinary number, why not 10 or 15, but Douglas chose to not say anything and he gave him the ingredients to make the 12 potions as he had asked.
Douglas then said to him : "We have established unique prices according to the potions' grades, the potions low grade are all bought 20 gold coins, the potions medium grade are bought 150 gold coins and the potions high grade are bought 700 gold coins.
It's the same for the ingredients needed to make potions, for all potions low grade 1 gold coin is enough, for potions medium grade, you will have to spend 15 gold coins to buy the ingredients needed for one potion, and for potions high grade, it will cost you 70 gold coins per potion."
Kevin was thrilled, being a mage was going to make him earn a lot of money, but not as much as looting dungeons with Axel.
Douglas after explaining all this to him therefore gave him with a smile, 28 gold coins in addition to the ingredients he had already given him.
And Kevin wanted to use this money to buy the equipment he wanted to build muscle, but Axel refused and paid for him the 15 gold coins it had cost.
This trip to the warehouse hadn't taken them long and while Kevin was cooking at their pavilion, Axel went to set up the equipment Kevin had chosen in their bedroom they weren't using.
Axel finished before Kevin and when he came back to the kitchen he smelled the scent of his favorite food and he exclaimed in surprise : "Babe, that smells so good !" 𝙛𝚛𝙚ewe𝗯𝓃𝗼ѵ𝚎Ɩ.𝒄o𝐦
Kevin smiled happy to get a compliment from his man and he said : "Get the table ready, I'm almost done."
Axel embraced him from behind and rubbed against him, he kissed his neck and said : "You were very thoughtful on the way to the warehouse and when we got home, what are you hidding from me again ?"
Kevin gently pushed him away and motioned for him to set the table, damn, he hadn't taken his man's sexual appetite into his calculations.
Kevin ended up answering him : "I didn't hide anything from you, I was doing calculations to find out how many potions I could make this afternoon ... and for the rest it's just that I couldn't tell you because there were always too many people around us."
Axel was sitting at the table after setting it and he asked him : "Is something happened with the System ?"
Kevin finally extinguished the fires of the stove, which worked not with gas or electricity, but with small magical crystals low grade that could be found in dungeons.
These small magical crystals low grade were the first source of energy in this world, he hadn't found any with Axel yet, but he would come across them some day or another.
Also, if the pavilion was so good for mages to meditate on, it was because there was a large low grade magic crystal buried in its foundation.
Uncle Douglas explained this to him the last time after they bought some food. Magic crystals were not only the only source of energy in this world, they could also increase the number of particles of the elements around them.
The better the quality and size of the magic crystals, the more particles would be found.
He served them and sat down next to Axel to eat, he told him excitedly : "Yes it's related to the System, you will never guess … When I finished my first potion a first message appeared and I have gained 10 experience points and 1 Soul force point.
I have also unlocked a new skill block, crafting potions !"
Kevin explained everything to him and he also told him about the change he had felt when he had meditated thanks to the black necklace.
He also asked him if, thanks to his artifact sword which could use fire attacks, he could try to absorb fire particles so that he would be able to master all the elements.
Axel was really stunned by this discovery and he told him : "Kev, babe, this is really great, by crafting potions you are going to be able to gain a lot of experience points and Soul force points, it's amazing.
And as for using the fire element of my sword so that you can master all the elements, we will do it sunday when we will go back to find another dungeon in the Wildlands, it's better to do it when we are out of sight."
