每个人都有第一次

Chapter 25 - The Giant Birds



Kevin walked for the last time to the main square, and when he approached the makeshift camp of the Sun Sect he could see that there were a lot of people there.

About three hundred people were gathered in front of the camp that the Sun Sect had set up and they were all around the same age, no doubt they were all the new recruits.

Kevin, who still had his hood falling in front of his eyes, slipped through the crowd and when he got in front of the entrance he finally saw Axel who had stayed inside the camp away from all this mess.

When he tried to join him he was stopped by two young men who didn\'t have time to reprimand him because Axel\'s voice rang out just behind them : "He is with me, let him pass."

The two young men froze immediately and Kevin took this opportunity to join Axel, who pulled his hood back and said : "I already told you to stop doing this."

Kevin then said with a smile and a playful tone : "I never said I would stop."

He then sighed and scratched the back of his head compliant : "But I promise that when I\'m with you I won\'t do it anymore, is that okay with you ?"

Axel put an arm around his shoulders and led him to the other side of the camp, he said to him : "Okay, that\'s fine with me."

Kevin put his arm around his waist and let Axel guided him, he then handed him a kind of pass, like those used in his world to open hotel rooms.

He took it and Axel said to him : "Don\'t lose it, that\'s what will allow you to enter our pavilion."

Kevin looked at him and a bright smile appeared on his face, he said excited : "So we can be together tonight, no need to wait ?"

Axel chuckled and said : "Um, we were lucky, there were still some available. I have another surprise for you but it will have to wait until we are only the both of us."

Kevin nodded and asked him : "Are we going to use giant birds to get into the Sun Sect ?"

Axel smiled at him and said : "Indeed, giant birds are the fastest way to travel when it comes to long distance, even though my wolf is much faster than them, I thought that you would appreciate to try it."

Kevin seemed delighted, so he was happy to have guessed it correctly and he added : "We\'re going back with the first group. The Sun Sect has rent 20 giant birds and they can each hold up to 20 people, so we\'re going back first as our job is done and the new recruits will follow later on, when everyone will have been checked and will have been settled into the giant birds."

As Axel had taken off his hood when those in front of the entrance could still see him, and as Axel seemed to be very popular, he could forget the fact that he wanted to keep a low profil.

But once again he remembered that he had vowed not to hide anymore and to live this life to the fullest.

As for these giant birds, he had seen them in Kevin\'s memory but the latter had never had the money to try them, so he was very impatient to feel the wind on his face and enjoy the wonderful view he was going to have.

Axel continued to guide him and soon Kevin saw the 20 giant birds wisely waiting for their signal to fly away.

Alan who was already seated on the back of one of the giant bird waved to them and Axel immediately grabbed his waist and a second later they were standing in front of Alan.

This one laughed when he saw Kevin\'s stunned face but he finally told him to sit down and patted him on his shoulder.

On top of the giant bird was a structure that looked like the interior of a small plane in his home world, there were 6 rows of 3 seats and a row of two seats in the front.

Once Kevin sat down next to Alan, Axel went to sort out some formalities and Alan told him : "You\'re such a lucky guy you know, you\'re going to escape the welcome ceremony which is very boring.

And since you\'ll be living with Axel in a pavilion, you can choose to use the sect\'s canteen which is free and serves 3 meals a day, or you can buy food and eat at home."

As Kevin looked at him a little in astonishment Alan added : "I\'m only saying that because you don\'t seem to be the type to like to mix with other people, and Axel is quite like you, so don\'t be shy if you want to avoid the canteen.

Axel will be more than happy, it was kind of a torture for him ... You know already that he is the super genius of the fighters, right ?

So, everyone were wispering when he arrived, some were even brave enough to try to give him love letters or presents but he has always refused all of them."

Kevin clenched his fists, he had just imagined this scene in his mind and the jealousy he felt surprised him so much that he said to Alan : "Then don\'t worry, I will never let him go again to the canteen, or I may killed someone accidentally and it will be quite troublesome."

Alan laughed again but when he saw that Kevin looked dead serious, he abruptly stopped laughing and he asked him : "Are you serious or are you joking with me ?"

Kevin said simply : "I\'m serious."

Kevin added quickly with a smile to prevent Alan from thinking too much about what he had just said : "Don\'t worry too much Alan, I won\'t do anything stupid ... I can\'t wait to start my classes, it\'s so exciting."

Alan finally chuckled and said : "I have no doubts about it ! Tell me, have you started to meditate ?"

Kevin replied very enthusiastically : "Yes I started, and thanks to your help and advice, I can see more and more particles everytime I\'m doing it."

Alan seemed surprised but he asked him curious : "Can you already absorb the particles of your three elements ?"

Kevin nodded in satisfaction and said : "At first the wind element particles rarely appeared but now it\'s getting better and I can see more of them."

Alan still surprised asked him again : "Kevin, how many hours exactly have you meditated ?"

Kevin promptly replied : "I did 4 hours yesterday and I just finished my 5th hour today."

Alan was shocked, the meditation required a great deal of concentration and so, at first it was very exhausting to practice it.

Even he couldn\'t manage to meditate more than an hour or two a day at first before collapsing due to mental fatigue.

Alan then said to him : "And, aren\'t you tired ? Meditation requires great concentration as you can see, and the resulting mental fatigue can be very dangerous especially at the beginning."
