My Mage System (BL)

Liam nodded and he took out two long distance communication stones which he handed them both, he explained to them how it worked and immediately after Liam heard Kevin's voice in his head, 'Keep it natural and listen to me, the traitor is Alyssa and I'm absolutely certain of it.'

He was glad to see that Liam had remained impassive and he then revealed her Stats to him, telling him that she could only be a highly trained undercover assassin, and since all of the items she was equipped with were high grade, she must have been highly regarded too. Either by the King himself, or by those who were in charge of getting rid of the rebellion.

He then said to him hastily because every second was important to be able to counter her, 'We have to act fast because Alice's life may already be in danger, plus we absolutely must not let her slip away now that she knows for me and Ian.

Tell Kerry to trust me, we have to evacuate Alice that's our priority for the moment, I'll warn Alan and I'll use a pretext to send them to Tony's shop, from there with Axel and Erik they'll use a Teleportation Talisman paper to go directly to Alice's shop.

In the meantime stay alert and don't let her out of your sight, we can't afford to let her escape.'

While Solomon and Kerry were discussing who could be the traitor if it was not Derek, Alyssa by subtle phrases managed to bamboozle them and always pointed out a detail that made him guilty.

Kevin had to admit that she was really good, manipulating words and facts to create discord between the leaders of the rebellion and create the perfect scapegoat, very few people would have been able to do it.

He took advantage of the fact that everyone was arguing to warn Alan, he said exactly the same thing to him as to Liam and Alan, like Liam, remained impassive.

Fortunately for him these two had rather cold personalities except towards their friends, which was very useful at the moment.

Alan told him that whatever he decided he would follow his orders and Kevin told him to be ready to act and that he himself would have to warn Axel and Erik of what had happened here and not to waste any time.

Kevin pretended to have finished his conversation with Axel and picked up the file that was still on the table.

He looked at Kerry and he said to him : "Would you like to take a quick look with me at the file in the kitchen to see what it contains ?"

Kerry thought it was odd that Kevin wanted to go into the kitchen to look at the file but Liam had just sent him a message via their communication stones to tell him to trust Kevin, so he just nodded and followed him into the kitchen.

Alan got up too, saying that it was late and that he was going to make something to eat quickly, if they had to go back to the demons territory they might as well go back on a full stomach.

Fortunately for him, Solomon and Alyssa were completely unaware that he was unable to prepare food and as he left he couldn't help but smile when Liam began to bombard them with questions about Ian being the rightful King of the demons which immediately diverted their attention.

Alan joined them and he could see from Kerry's livid expression that Kevin was already explaining to him what he had discovered about Alyssa.

When he saw that Kerry was about to lose control of his emotions, he came and stood next to him, putting a hand on his shoulder to try to appease him, and Kerry surprised by this gesture immediately understood and calmed down.

He released his fists, which he had clenched so tightly that the marks of his fingernails could be seen in his palms, and he nodded to let Alan know that he would be quite now.

If what Kevin had just revealed to him was accurate, and apparently it was, or Liam wouldn't have told him to trust him, then it was his fault that so many of their men had died before they had split into two groups.

It had been almost 8 or 9 years since he and Alyssa had had a secret affair, he had allowed himself to be seduced and he remembered now that at the beginning of their relationship they had had many conversations about his strategies, which cities he intended to release, how he intended to succeed ... Fuck he thought, how he could have been so stupid.

Fortunately for him, Derek after revealing to him that there was a mole among them had made him promise to tell his strategies only to Solomon, not even to him nor to Alyssa, and that it would be Solomon who would transmit them to their main base.

And he had kept his promise, Alyssa had grown tired of asking him questions he didn't answer and their relationship had been a little strained ever since, but she hadn't left him either.

Now that all the pieces of the puzzle were falling into place he felt like throwing up, was she also responsible for their uncle's death, if so he could never forgive himself.

Kevin seeing him go through so many emotions felt helpless to find the right words to erase the guilt he could clearly see in his eyes so he said instead, 'Look, if Alyssa has a long distance communication stone like we do, Alice might be in danger, you have to go and evacuate her as fast as possible, the black market can't be compromised, it's too important for our future battles, do you understand ?'

Kerry after hearing Kevin's message paled even more and he asked him feeling helpless, 'Do you have a solution to go to save her ?'

Kevin nodded and took out the Teleportation Talisman paper that Ian had given to him, this one would suffice as Tony's shop was closer than the Wildlands and he could teleport two people which was perfect.

He handed it to Alan who immediately took the Teleportation Talisman paper and he told to Kerry to follow his instructions and that all would be fine if they acted quickly.

Kerry nodded and after Alan opened the teleportation portal he followed him without hesitation, he had already caused enough damage to the rebellion he couldn't afford to lose Alice and the black market.

Once they left,W Kevin tried to think of a way to keep her prisoner.

He didn't doubt that Caleb had cells specifically for interrogating traitors, but the problem was that with her stats, even if he took away her weapons and items, she would still be able to use the darkness and fire element and he couldn't afford to ignore this threat.
