My Mage System (BL)

When Kerry gaze fell again on the bloodstones that were in Liam's magic bag even though he felt grateful he was also a little worried so he asked him : "What's your rightful king asking in exchange for these bloodstones ? Nothing is free Liam, and I don't want my brother to feel in debt, if we want this alliance to work, we have to be on an equal footing."

Liam nodded and said : "What Kevin expects from you is very simple, he wants you to unmask the traitors and strengthen your network, if you want to be on an equal footing with us then you have to help Solomon to expand his network.

The Queen is supported by powerful families of fighters and mages, as well as the best intelligence network in our territory with the best assassins and the best spies.

She also has countless people who are ready to offer her and her sister a safe haven once they will be freed.

The current King can only retain power because he has found a way to restrict her powers with some black chains made of an unknown metal that prevent her from using the particles of the spiritual energy, and because he is holding in hostage the person she cherish the most.

He also has the military backing but I'm not worried about that either, when Kevin will show them his mark, they will side with us."

Kerry looked at him puzzled and asked : "You just said the Queen is going to be freed … But by whom and how ? Your pseudo King has been holding her prisoner for 17 years, and all the attempts to free her have failed."

Liam smirked and said : "Kevin is going to do it himself ... He told me to say to you that it was all he was able to do for you at the moment, and that until he frees the Queen nothing will change on our side.

He's planning to free her at the annual capital's tournament ... Look, I know it might sound a little crazy but I trust him completely and when you will meet him you will understand what I mean, Kevin is born to be a leader."

Kerry looked at him still startled and said : "Do you realize that if something goes wrong we will lose both the Queen and your rightful King … It's unlike you to take that kind of risk, is this Kevin so exceptional ?"

Liam laughed heartily at his puzzled expression and said : "Well, that's not all, he is also the mate of a legendary wolf that I trained myself and he has another trump card but I won't tell you about this one."

Kerry seeing how confident Liam was finally nodded and said : "Okay, you know that I trust you so we are going to follow Kevin's plan … It's a good plan, let's start by finding a trustworthy person who can take care of our transactions, there are several large shops in this city that might want to work with us.

And since this was the city where our uncle grew up, we are more likely to find allies here."

Liam agreed with him, this was the best place to hope to find someone they could trust, he said to Kerry : "I am coming with you, Alyssa will stay with Solomon to watch over him."

Kerry nodded, Liam was truly a man of honor and he respected him a lot, to have him by their side now was really reassuring.

He went to tell Alyssa what they were planning to do and gave her the coordinates of another hideout just in case something unexpected happened.

She would only have to use a Teleportation Talisman paper to get there.

Before they left, she handed them each a Teleportation Talisman paper and she gave to Liam a communication stone in case they had to go their separate ways, like that they could communicate with each other and meet again in the place Kerry had just given to her.

Liam had completely forgotten that demons used communication stones to keep in touch with each other, they were made of a metal that was only found in the demons territory and were very easy to use.

It was enough to think of the person you wanted to get in touch with and that person would get the message straight into their mind, of course for this to work the other person had to be in possession of one of those stones as well.

It was like a telepathic link except that the link was created by the communication stones and not by the mind.

After Kerry and Liam had changed their clothes so they wouldn't be spotted, they got out and Kerry led him to the shop closest to their house.

Liam had put on his long black cloak with the hood that hid half of his face and especially his snow-white hair, and Kerry was dressed like him, all in black with a hood over his head.

As they walked over to the first shop Kerry wanted to visit, Liam took the opportunity to ask him : "Kerry, if it's possible, I would like to buy as many communication stones as I can, it might be helpful to the organization.

I know that the Queen and some of us already have one, but the more we have the better it will be, and I also wish to be able to stay in touch with Ian, even when I am away from him."

Kerry smiled at him and showed him the first shop saying : "No worries, I will help you to get plenty of them, but let me warn you, short distance communication stones are quite cheap and easy to find, but long distance communication stones are harder to get and they are very expensive.

But thanks to Kevin and what he has given to us, that won't be a problem, I also would like to be able to stay in direct contact with you and not just with the Queen."

Kerry added : "Plus it will give us a good idea if the shop owner is a thief or someone honest."

Liam who was in enemy territory had no idea of ​​the prices of those communication stones or anything else.

The last time he came, they had stayed mainly in their hideout or they had trained in remote places, so it was his first time in a city full of demons.

But he wasn't worried, he trusted Kerry's judgment so he told him : "You will decide, I'm only here to protect you, my role stops there."

Kerry smirked and after only a few minutes they entered the first shop, Kerry had started to walk around the shelves but he snorted in disdain and left immediately after.

Liam didn't say anything and he followed him into the second and third shop where Kerry acted exactly the same.
