Kevin looked at the spot in the corner next to him and asked : "Can I sit there ?"
Ashton immediately replied cheerfully : "Of course you can !"
Kevin smiled and said, while putting his magic bag on the table : "That's great, I will be right back, I have to talk to our teacher before the beginning of his class."
Ashton nodded and Kevin left to see Ian, the class was about to start but not all the students had arrived yet.
When Ian saw that Kevin was walking towards him, he moved away from the other students a bit and after politely greeting each other like a teacher and his student were supposed to, Kevin didn't beat around the bush and asked him in a low voice : "How are you doing ?"
Ian answered him honestly, wispering too and without hidding his feelings : "It's not the first time he is gone so I'm used to it, it's hard at first, and then afterwards I try to keep myself busy so that I don't have time to think about Liam and how much I miss him."
Kevin smiled at him and said : "Cool then ! Alan and I are alone today as well, since both Axel and Erik went on an expedition, therefore we decided to go to work together on our fighting techniques.
Would you like to join us at 3.30pm at the training ground number 8, we are going to train there."
Ian then said to him smiling : "I want to join you guys, but I have another class this afternoon with the 4th year, I will finish at 4.30pm and I will join you right after, but I warn you, I suck at fighting, Liam taught me the basics but I think it's really not for me."
Kevin smirked and said : "Let me judge for myself okay ! We will be there so join us whenever you want."
Ian smiled at him and just nodded, and after that Kevin went back to his seat and whispered to Ashton as Ian was giving his instructions for the potion they were learning to craft today : "Would you like to come train with me this afternoon.
Alan will be there too, we will meet at 3.30pm on training ground number 8, and Ian will be joining us around 4.30pm, so if you don't mind training with us you're welcome."
Ashton really didn't expect this, Kevin had just offered to him to train with his idol, who on his right mind would refuse, he replied without hiding his excitement, but still in a low voice as not to disturbe the others : "Really ! You are kidding me, of course I want to come, I have been waiting to learn how to fight for a long time."
Kevin winked at him satisfied with that answer and then they both started crafting the Purify potion that Ian wanted them to learn today.
Kevin who had officially become Alan's student made no secret of the technique he had taught him, and since all low grade potions had the same number of ingredients, it only took him 10 minutes to make 2 potions.
Ashton didn't hide his astonishment and his admiration for him, he told him that some mages never managed to use this technique because it required too much concentration.
And Kevin who had been focusing on his own potions had just realized that Ashton had already crafted, in the same time as him, the 3 Purify potions that could be made with the starter kit that had been given to them on the day of their recruitment.
Kevin was also very impressed, it meant that Ashton could already practically craft potions at the same speed as Alan, it was completely mind blowing.
It made him feel better about his choice, Ashton would undoubtedly be a very good asset to them, with this kind of achievement at his age, even though he came from a family of powerful mages, he was still exceptional.
Seeing how quickly Kevin was already crafting potions despite his low Soul force level, Ashton asked him curiously : "Is that the maximum potions you can craft at the moment ?"
Kevin just nodded and Ashton asked him again : "How long do you need to fill your Soul force reserve again ?"
Kevin decided to tell him the time he got thanks to his recovery passive skill, so he said to him : "I need an hour of rest or 30 minutes of meditation."
Ashton was going from surprise to surprise and he said to him : "Wow, that's super impressive, are you sure you don't come from a family of mages ?"
Kevin felt a little embarrassed to have to lie to him, but he didn't show it.
Now that he knew who were the real parents of this boy to whom he owed this body, that is to say Kevin, as Alan had already told him, that indeed explained a lot of things.
He said to him though : "I don't know, sorry."
Ashton realized that his question might sound harsh so he quickly excused himself and asked instead : "Do you have enough ingredients to craft other potions, if you want I have plenty of them stored in my magic bag.
If Alan told you that you could use your Soul force normally again, the more potions you will craft the more your reserve will increase, I can lend you some if you want, and don't worry about mental fatigue, I can prepare another remedy for you."
Kevin thanked him and told him that it was okay and that Alan had given to him enough ingredients to craft potions during his class.
Ashton couldn't help to exclaimed : "He is so cool !"
And Kevin smile widened when he said : "Certainly ! Alan is so awesome, but not as awesome as Axel."
They both giggled, and Kevin after their exchange finally sat cross-legged and pulled his hood over his head as usual.
Kevin was delighted that Ashton had offered to make for him another remedy on his own, that meant it was possible, and so he would be able to ask him for some for Erik in exchange for training him.
Only, it was not yet the right time to ask him about it, he would have to wait until the end of their training tonight.
After that he began to meditate and he could clearly see the difference between the concentration of the particles that was now in his pavilion and the one that was here.
And, as Alan had already said to him, yes it was really a waste of time to meditate here, so he would try to find another solution for the next time.
Now that the particles had appeared and before he started to absorb them, he was wondering if his System would allow him to have a chronometer.
