Chapter 168 - The Show Is About To Start !
Kerry didn't have time to answer that Alice was already saying : "Bring him with you and kill as many of those bastards as you can ... Give me another five minutes to finish and we can leave."
Kerry shook his head helplessly, Alice really hadn't changed, still so bossy.
He motioned for the guys to follow him and after crossing the wall created by Alice's illusion stone they immediately found themselves in the shop which was being ravaged by the King's soldiers at this very moment.
Those bastards, as Alice had so kindly called them, were ruining her shop, Axel counted 4 of them and said : "Erik, they are for you, it's time for you to show to Alan what you can really do."
Erik then had the same kind of smile that Kevin had before a fight and he started to walk towards his first opponent.
Alan found him devilishly sexy like that, but he couldn't help but say in a very low voice so that only Axel could hear him : "If he ever gets hurt I'll make you pay."
Axel chuckled and beckoned him to watch, he said in a whisper too : "The show is about to start !"
Kerry who hadn't missed anything of their exchange found them rather funny and he was also curious to see what Erik, who seemed to be the weakest of their band, was able to do.
And indeed, Erik gave them a real show, he used all the new techniques that Kevin had taught him.
He used the pressure points to paralyze some of his opponents and while doing so he subtly used the sequence of moves that Kevin had taught him to hit the vital points of the remaining ones.
He didn't use any weapon and broke each time the neck of his opponents, the fight didn't last more than 2 minutes and Alan exclaimed completely blown away by what he had just seen : "Holy shit sweetheart, that was fantastic ... And you were so sexy …"
Axel smacked him behind the head and he gave him a warning look, Kerry wasn't used to their seduction game and he didn't want to make a bad impression.
But Alan didn't see it that way at all, so he said to Kerry instead : "I'm sorry, but if we're going to see each other more often, you would better get used to seeing us like this."
Kerry didn't have time to ask him what he meant by that as Alan then moved very quickly, which was very surprising for a mage, and he saw him press Erik against the wall near the front door, and shamelessly he lifted him up and had him wrapped his legs around his waist.
Then the two of them exchanged a fiery kiss as if they were alone in the world, if Kerry said that he wasn't shocked that would be a lie.
He saw out of the corner of his eye Axel sigh helplessly and run a hand over his face out of exasperation and he couldn't help but ask him : "Do they really do this often ?"
Axel just nodded, and whistled two times to warn Alan that 2 demons were heading straight for them.
Alan immediately put Erik down and whispered in his ear as he turned him towards the front door and stood right behind him : "There are 2 more coming sweetheart, I'll leave them to you too, dazzle me again."
He kissed the back of his neck and leaned against the wall with his arms crossed over his chest and with a gleam of lust in his eyes that didn't escape Erik.
Erik then said to him : "My love, you should be a little more serious in this kind of situation, don't you think so ?"
Alan chuckled and answered him while Erik was walking over to the center of the shop to have more room to fight : "For those who are coming I don't need to be serious, I just need to enjoy the show."
And indeed the two demons that entered the shop were not much stronger than the four he had just killed.
Once they got through the door they saw the corpses of their comrades and they immediately drew their weapons while walking menacingly towards Erik who was standing right in front of them waiting for them.
Alan took the opportunity to close the door behind them and immediately returned to his original position, winking at Erik who smiled at him as he picked up his axes to quickly finish off those two demons.
And while Erik was finishing them off, Axel felt a presence coming towards them that was more powerful than he was, and as Erik had already beheaded one demon and had just split the skull of the last one he quickly said to them : "Let's stop playing and get the hell out of here, the next one who will cross this door is on the same level as Liam, even with our weapons we don't stand a chance."
Alan joined immediately Erik and the four of them went back to the basement, Axel said to Alice : "We don't have time, we have to go, now ! You come with us and we'll see how we can get you back to the demons territory later, the priority is to keep you safe."
Alice just nodded, she had managed to store everything that was important and there was nothing left in the shop that could lead them to the black market.
She then looked at Alan who was the only mage among them : "Can you burn or destroy the entire store ?"
Alan's smile widened and he said : "I've been wanting to try a new spell, it should burn this place to the ground without any problems."
Axel lifted his hand to signal him to be quiet, he could feel that oppressive aura getting closer and closer and then he said to him as he pulled out the last Teleportation Talisman paper he had left : "Open the teleportation portal directly to Ian's pavilion , we're all gonna get there first ... Quick, he's almost here."
Alan nodded and immediately became serious, he opened the teleportation portal and he pushed Erik inside ruthlessly, he too could feel that terrifying aura and there was no way his man was going to stay here a second longer.
Alice chuckled when she saw this and she took Kerry's hand to cross over the portal together, Alice had always considered Kerry as a brother and the affection they had always had for each other had never been ambiguous.
Once Alice and Kerry had crossed Alan motioned for Axel to go too but Axel shook his head and said : "Not without you .... Hurry up and let's go, our men are waiting for us."
