BXBX NOVEL Chapter 34 - Weaknesses
When he was clean again and that they were both dressed and equipped, Kevin then asked him, looking curiously at the ore that was still trapped in the rock : "Is it another ore ?"
Axel replied with a smile : "No babe, it\'s the same, but the one you see there is of better quality than the one you have seen on the surface."
Axel added, while he hugged him from behind : "I haven\'t finished extracting it yet as you can see, but it\'s definitely worth the time wasting here."
He said looking in his eyes : "Kev, in 2 months there is a very important tournament in the capital, and I know someone there who can craft us the weapons we want with this ore, and if you become powerful enough by then, you may be able to introduce the lightning element inside our weapons."
Kevin asked him surprised : "You don\'t want to sell it anymore ?"
Axel caressed his face and said : "We\'re going to sell the Nerudium of lower quality and keep this one for ourselves, the weapons we can craft with it it\'s priceless, trust me okay."
Kevin nodded and said : "Can I do my stretching exercises while waiting for you ?"
Axel nodded but added hastily : "But only stretching exercises, no workout, no running, no meditation, understood ?"
Kevin smiled at him and said to calm him down : "I know, I know, I\'ll be a good boy, I promise."
Axel kissed him and went back to extracting the Nerudium, and Kevin before starting his stretches, decided to take a look of his Skills menu.
It had been a while since he had taken a look of his skills, and he remembered that skills were something very important in the virtual reality games he had played in his home world.
The holographic screen appeared and his innate skills had not changed, his warrior spirit was still at level 1, so he quickly moved on and was pleasantly surprised by what he found out after that.
[ PASSIVE SKILLS ]
Perception level 2 : Allows you to see your opponent\'s level and Stats if it is not more than 40 levels above yours. Allow you to see the grade and Stats of Items and the grade of boxes.
Soul force required to activate : None
Recovery level 2 : 20 min of rest allows you to recover 50 Soul force points. 30 min of meditation allows you to recover 150 Soul force points.
It was great, now just by doing meditation he could regain a lot of Soul force points. But the sequel caught his attention even more and he smirked when he saw the skill that had appeared.
[ ACTIVE SKILLS ]
Observation level 1 (see more)
Vital points targetting level 1 : all vital points become immediately visible regardless of the opponent\'s level.
Soul force required to activate : 50
This skill was going to be really useful to him, he was already an expert in vital points on the human body, but he had realized that monsters did not necessarily have the same weaknesses as humans.
This skill would allow him to be much more effective at killing them.
He then checked if he could use the new spell he had just learned, it was something that intrigued him a lot, being able to fight thanks to magic and casting spells remained a complete mystery to him.
[ MASTERY OF THE ELEMENTS ]
Lightning element level 5 : 5 015 / 20 000
Spell : None
Water element level 3 : 1 221 / 5 000
Spell : None
Wind element level 1 : 332 / 1 000
Spell : None
Earth element level 1 : 12 / 1 000
Spell level 1 : Throwing Stones (Soul force required to activate : 20)
Fire element level 0 : 0 / 200
He figured out that he would only have to think of that spell to activate it, as long as he had enough Soul force points he could use this spell, if his guess was correct then it was just too cool.
Kevin was really pleased and he finally closed the holographic screen and began his stretches.
He was observing Axel who was extracting the Nerudium, and he felt his cheeks getting hot and his heart racing when he thought back to what had just happened.
Axel, who had heard the change in Kevin\'s heartbeat, turned his head in his direction to see what he was doing and when he looked at him, Kevin blushed even more and he turned to the other side to hide his embarrassment.
Axel bit his lower lip to prevent to laugh, he didn\'t want to upset his man, Kevin was just damn too cute.
How this man who was a war machine could have remained so innocent, it was a real mystery to him, but he was also very happy about it.
Knowing that he was his first boyfriend made him jubilate, and he would do anything to be the only one for the rest of his life.
30min later, Axel finally gave a sigh of relief, he had just finished to mine the ore, Kevin came up to him and asked him with a smile : "Have you finished ?"
Axel nodded, he had put the lower quality Nerudium with the bodies of the monsters and the high quality one in Kevin\'s magic bag, he said to him while handing him his magic bag : "We can continue now, we are done from that side, we have to return to the first gallery and take the other path."
He got closer to Kevin and put a hand around his waist, he leaned slightly and swiftly he put his other hand behind his knees and he trapped him in his arms.
Kevin cursed and struggled : "Fuck Axel, I\'m not a girl, put me down."
Axel kissed him to silence him and then said : "I like to hold you like this and we are only the two of us here, no one will see you."
Kevin stopped struggling and asked instead : "Why are you carrying me ?"
Axel\'s smile widened and he told him, knowing that he would be delighted after what he was going to say : "I haven\'t been able to test my new speed with the help of my swords\' Stats yet, I\'m curious how fast I can move now."
Kevin\'s scowl face immediately lit up and Axel could see his eyes sparkling with excitement, he told him, while hiding his victorious smile from him : "Babe, put your arms around my neck and hold me tight."
Kevin did so immediately, speed was one of his weaknesses, and the fact that Axel liked to carry him like a girl had completely vanished from his thoughts.
Axel said again : "Just keep your eyes open Kev to enjoy the speed, and don\'t worry I\'m holding you tight, I won\'t let anything happen to you."
