Chapter 170 - Create A Secure Path

Once they were both completely healed with no more burn marks on them, Kevin breathed a sigh of relief and after he helped Axel up, he snuggled in his arms and jokingly said to lighten the atmosphere that had remained a bit tense : "I knew the scariest thing was that Alan wanted to try a new spell."

Axel laughed heartily and Alan protested outraged : "Hey, what do you mean by that ?"

Kevin replied while enjoying the warmth of Axel's body : "I told you to wait until we were in the Wildlands to try mixing the particles of darkness with the particles of fire ... But at least seeing your injuries, we know there's nothing left from Alice's shop."

Alan then said proudly : "Indeed, and I'm pretty sure I even managed to hurt that demon that had that terrifying aura."

Axel said to him, after kissing Kevin's forehead and caressing his cheeks with his hands : "Even if you didn't hurt him, that attack was really amazing and very powerful, now they know that the black market has allies they should be wary of."

Kerry nodded and asked looking at Solomon : "Where is she ?"

Solomon said to him patting his shoulder : "I forced her to take a fasting potion high grade, we won't need to take care of her for the next six months, Liam left her in the care of someone we trust, she won't be able to escape or talk, we made sure of that, you don't have to think about it anymore."

Solomon had been pleasantly surprised at Kevin's efficiency, his divine chains could gag Alyssa to prevent her from speaking and reveal that he was the new bearer of the Pentagram Mark and also protect Ian's identity, and she could no longer use the particles of the spiritual energy which made her completely powerless.

The only problem that arose was how to feed her and that's when he had told him about this fasting potion that demons in hiding like them used a lot.

This eliminated the need to eat and drink as the potion kept your body hydrated and nourished for a period of time depending on its quality, the higher the grade of this potion the longer it was effective.

Kevin had found them through his System's store and he had bought a high grade one that was effective for 6 months, he had also explained to him quickly what his System was and that it too came from another divine artifact.

Solomon understood that with the kind of back up he had, given who Axel's father was, he was already lucky that Kevin was willing to reveal all of this to him.

After that, Kevin had proposed to entrust Alyssa to Caleb and Solomon had accepted because he had already dealt with Caleb in the past as he was one of the best men of the Queen, and Derek had also already told him that Caleb was a man he could trust.

Then he had taken the time to order Derek to change their hideout and he had given him the name of a place he was sure Alyssa didn't know about.

Kevin had told him that she must probably have to report to her superiors daily or weekly and when they wouldn't hear from her, they would attack any hideouts she had given to them.

Kevin had thought of everything and Liam himself had taken Alyssa and delivered her to Caleb with the help of a short distance Teleportation Talisman paper that Ian had crafted.

Liam hadn't said anything to them before taking her away so that they both didn't know where she would be holding, and so they wouldn't be able to reveal her location no matter what.

The teleportation portal had opened not long after Liam had left with Alyssa and so now the question was how to get all the demons to their home quickly.

Kevin and Axel had used up all of their Teleportation Talisman paper, well they still had one left with Liam, and Alan and Erik had also used two of theirs.

Kevin found that this means of transport was really very practical and fast and they didn't need to use always long distance Teleportation Talisman paper, small ones could be more than enough for the way he intended to use them.

He motioned for everyone to sit down and once they were all seated he asked Alice directly : "Do you have any maps of the demons territory with you ?"

Alice nodded and said : "I have several with me yes but ... What exactly do you need them for ?"

Kevin then turned to Alan and asked him : "How hard do you think it will be to get short distance Teleportation Talisman papers like the ones Ian has crafted so far ?"

Alan didn't see why Kevin was asking this question but he was curious to know what he had in mind this time so he replied confidently : "There will be no problem, these Teleportation Talisman papers are easy to find and they are not very expensive either, why ?"

Kevin lifted his hand to signal him to wait and he asked to Alice the same question and she also told him that it wouldn't be a problem to get a lot of them.

Many demons possessed the earth element and short distance Teleportation Talisman papers were very common unlike long distance ones which were almost non-existent on the market.

It was perfect, thought Kevin, it was the ideal solution for everyone, he decided to finally explain his plan to them : "Here's what we're going to do ... We're going to create hideouts at a maximum distance of 500 km each, we're going to create a secure path to travel through our two territories, like a kind of bridge to connect two normally inaccessible places.

All these hideouts will have to give access to strategic places, mainly big cities, the border or the royal palaces. And it will be easy to use them and secure them thanks to the communication stones.

One last thing, these hideouts will not be there to serve as refuge but more to be able to supply us if necessary, they will have to be able to provide weapons and all that can be useful for the missions.

Everyone seemed to welcome this idea pretty well but Alice suddenly said to him : "I can help you set up this kind of network but I can only do it for the demons side."

Kevin nodded and told her : "When Liam gets back I'll explain to him what we want to do and he'll decide with Tony and Caleb's help where to position these hideouts in the humans territory."
