Mykael shook his head and said to them : "If the Titans ever leave their world, the Gods will take care of them, but what bothers me is how these two bitches are related.
The Hydras are legendary creatures and just like the Drakonits they were created by you know who … I have just a bad feeling about all this mess, I don't think things are as simple as they seem at first."
Kevin then said to him : "Let's forget about that for now, Ian and Alan are on their way, let's go join everyone."
And when they joined the others, Mykael who was the only outsider among them took the potions that Ian and Alan had prepared and went to give them to the other survivors.
As for Alan, he opened his brother's mouth and forced him to swallow the antidote, his heart was pounding because there was always a risk that it wouldn't work.
But when he saw the red and purple veins start to disappear he looked at Kevin with hope in his eyes and he breathed a sign of relief when he said to him that it was okay and that the poison had really been eliminated.
Kelan then began to blink softly, and he straightened up quickly but their father who was also next to him held him by the shoulders and said quickly : "It's over son, it's us, you're home, don't move too much your body still need some time to recover."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtKelan let himself fall back on the bed and his gaze finally landed on Alan, he blinked several times because although Nolan and Alan looked like two peas in a pod, Nolan would never look at him that way.
He looked around quickly and met Nolan's gaze who nodded imperceptibly to let him know he wasn't dreaming and he immediately turned his attention back to his younger brother.
He raised his hand to rest it on his cheek and he said in a hesitant voice : "Alan ... It's you … It's really you."
Alan put his hand on his and just nodded, the emotion he was feeling at that moment was again threatening to overwhelm him and he didn't want to cry in front of his big brother who had probably just been through hell.
Kelan who was still confused then remove his hand from his cheek but he grabbed his brother's hand and squeezed it hard before asking his father : "Don't tell me it's only temporary, tell me the banishment has been lifted."
Dilan looked at Kevin but it was Alan who spoke first : "Big brother the banishment can't be lifted ... Not yet."
Kelan wanted to protest but Nolan explained : "Kelan calm down, we can see Alan freely now, but we have to keep the banishment active or else everyone will know that the bearer of the Pentagram Mark is among us, because he is the only one who has the authority to go against the decisions of the council."
Kelan looked at his father again and said : "Let me straighten up, I am fine now."
Dilan nodded and Alan helped him sit up and then sat down next to him as Kelan tapped the mattress to signal him to come, he then asked as he stopped his gaze on Axel who was putting a protecting arm around the shoulders of a young man : "Kevin, is that right."
Kevin smirked and said : "Kelan, glad you're back with us."
Kelan chuckled and said : "Caleb was right then, you are indeed the new bearer of the Pentagram Mark … He had first thought you were a fighter but after Tony assured him that you were a mage, he started to have doubts."
Kevin then said to him : "Don't forget to thank him the next time you see him because without that ring you wouldn't be here ... And just out of curiosity, how many hours a week do you train in the gravity room ?"
Kelan looked surprised at the ring he had put on his index finger just after the guard who had administered the poison had left and when the pressure of his cell, in addition to the poison that was spreading rapidly through his body, became almost unbearable.
He replied to Kevin mechanically, while stroking the ring still lost in thought : "Not as much as I would like …"
He stopped dead when he realized that his father had also seen the ring and he looked at him quickly and said : "That's not what you think at all."
Dilan chuckled but his gaze was threatening as he said : "Really, then why do you look so guilty."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKelan said trying to calm down : "This ring doesn't have that kind of meaning between us, as Kevin just said, it has regenerative powers and Caleb lent it to me sometimes when I go on missions.
I usually leave it in a lining of my pants but after the injection of the poison, when I didn't feel the presence of the guards anymore, I put it on my finger hoping that it would help me."
Dilan then leaned towards his son with a smile that made Kelan's internal alarms ringing and he said : "Bullshit ! But it was a nice try, don't worry I'll sort it out with Caleb."
Damn thought Kelan, he muttered again even though he knew he couldn't stop his father from talking with Caleb now : "It's really not what you think ..."
Alan placed an arm around his shoulders and then told him : "Don't worry dad won't do anything to him, he owes him your life."
Kevin then asked him to bring the subject back to more important things : "Do you remember what happened ?"
Kelan then said : "After spending the afternoon with Nolan I had an appointment with a man who provided me with the information you asked us about the change of guard during the annual capital's tournament, by the way ..."
Kelan touched the ring and a bundle of documents appeared, he immediately handed it to Kevin who took it dumbfounded and he explained to him : "It's also a storage ring, only me and Caleb can open it, it's very secure."
He then continued to tell them what happened to him : "Just after this transaction when my contact left I was attacked by men dressed all in black.
I have no other information for you, I could not even see the color of their eyes because they wore an opaque mask.
All I can say is that they were all very strong and they overpowered me very quickly .... They also knew the dispersal techniques because when I tried to run away they found me right away, I couldn't do anything at all and they ended up knocking me out."
