Chapter 232 - Chameleon
Kevin nodded with a smile and Axel looked at the hand that his father had placed on his shoulder, he still had trouble realizing that it was indeed his father who was in front of him, but their resemblance was really striking.
He finally let go of Kevin's hand and he allowed himself to do what he had always dreamed of doing since he was a little boy, he took his father in his arms and hugged him tightly while whispering 'Dad'.
Mykael didn't expect this but he also hugged him tightly, and he said to him all the same : "I'm here now and I'm going to make sure I make up for all those years we missed."
Mykael while keeping his son in his arms grabbed his son-in-law and he also hugged him saying : "Thank you, for protecting my son for me."
Kevin then said to him : "Thank you, for giving me the means to free myself from this mind control necklace."
Mykael chuckled and finally freed them, he ruffled Axel's hair and then he walked over to the father of his son's best friend and held out his hand saying : "Just call me Mykael ... Your boys are pretty amazing you must be proud, one managed to develop a dual cultivation bond with his lover and the other developed a very rare ability, he can assimilate negative energies to use them as a new source of power, it's really very impressive."
Dilan shook Mykael's hand by pure reflex and when he felt the power of this man through this simple handshake he finally realized that he had really a God in front of him.
His hair stood up all over his body, even though Mykael hadn't used the pressure of his aura so as not to destabilize him, and he could only nod in response too shocked by what had just happened to say anything.
Mykael also greeted the boys and he said again : "Very impressive, son your friends are really unusual."
Kevin then intervened hoping that everyone would refocus on their current problem and he said : "There will be time for family reunions later."
He invited everyone to sit back down and immediately asked Mykael : "Do you know anything in particular about Alan's brother's disappearance ?"
Mykael shook his head and said : "As I said, I only learnt of Axel's existence last Sunday just as the exchange between Kelan and the chameleon must have occurred, so my spies were not yet in place at that time.
However I have already sent my men to look for him but I don't know when I will get results, as you said yourself I need to reduce our search area."
Mykael who had been following their conversation had immediately thought of a chameleon when Nolan had said that Kelan was acting exactly the same as before but that he felt as if he had a stranger in front of him.
Nolan, who developed the very special ability of being able to absorb negative feelings, had also become much more intuitive than normal humans, and only chameleons fit this description.
He decided to explain to all of them his thoughts : "There are no chameleons in your world which means he could only have been sent by..."
Mykael swore and he looked at his son-in-law feeling a little embarrassed : "I'm going to need you to fill in my blanks, I was allowed to come and protect my son on two conditions.
The first one is that in this world I can only use 10% of my true power and that I can't reveal anything about you know who and their purpose."
Axel frowned and asked him : "Could these gods who play with our lives really have sealed your powers and made sure you couldn't tell us anything ?"
Mykael nodded and said : "Son, it was the only way I could get there, but don't worry, your husband has already figured out what was going on here so it shouldn't be a problem."
Kevin then asked him : "Can they spy on us ?"
Mykael said frowing : "Not while I'm around you ... But when I'm not there, they can."
He said because he didn't want to give a wrong impression to his son-in-law : "I am not powerful enough to keep a shield around you 24 hours a day, I only intervene when necessary ... Like when you freed your friend and a gigantic pillar of fire appeared out of nowhere, I created a shield around all of you so no one could guess that it was you who was behind this.
He then added : "Plus, they don't have access to each other's territories, if they want to spy on what is happening there, they must either come in person or send spies to gather information."
Kevin nodded and said : "At least we are sure this chameleon come from Lilith or the other god, I guess you sent your men to find out where they could have hidden him."
Mykael nodded and Kevin then asked : "Do their men have any particular markings that you will be able to recognize ?"
Mykael smirked again and said : "Smart indeed ! All Gods have to mark their men otherwise they couldn't live in our plane of existence and only a God more powerful than them can reveal this mark."
Axel then asked him curious to know how strong his father was compared to these other gods : "Can you still reveal this mark if your power has been reduced to 10%."
Mykael said to him honestly : "With my current strength it will be difficult but since Kevin will hold him back with my Chains of Restraint I will just use their power to compensate and it should be fine.
If it's the first God you mentioned, then it won't be a problem because she hasn't regained consciousness yet, and her men won't take initiative that could cost them their life.
But if it's the second one, it's more risky because if her chameleon disappears and she can't locate him, she'll figure it out right away and she might kill Kelan before we intervene.
And if it is indeed the second God then we need to act fast because she is far more vicious and manipulative than the first God."
Kevin then asked him : "Will it be enough to know which God kidnapped him to find him ?"
Mykael shook his head and said : "There's no guarantee my men can find him even if we reduce their search area."
Kevin nodded that was what he thought too, so he asked him : "Axel is your son can he go freely in your plane of existence or do you have to mark him too ?"
