Chapter 255 - When Will He Hatch ?
Axel smiled but before he could try anything, Kevin said to him via their link, 'Not even in your dreams, I want to be able to go to class without my body getting sore, and there are a few things we need to talk about together before you leave with Liam and your dad.'
Axel immediately calmed down as he thought of his father and he said to Kevin, 'It feels really weird that he's really here with us ... I have so many questions for him.'
Kevin snuggled into his arms and asked him, 'You told me you absorbed the knowledge of your mother's pack, so you know that she is the Luna of the Dark Blue Werewolf pack, right ?'historical
Axel chuckled and asked him aloud this time : "Babe, how can you know that, is it marked in my Stats like my father's name is ?"
Kevin looked him in the eye and said with a smile : "When you finished assimilating your bloodlines, I checked your Stats and your mother's pack name came up ... Honey, Mykael is looking for her but he hasn't found her yet and he looks worried, you should help him by telling him what you know about your mother's pack."
Axel's smile widened and he said : "Okay I'll tell him what I know ... have you been awake for long ?"
He saw Kevin mysterious smile and as his communication stone was still on the nightstand he immediately asked him : "Tell me, what did you do if you stayed in bed with me ?"
Kevin laughed and told him : "It was Kelan who contacted me first ... As the communication stone was left on the nightstand after I talked with Dilan last night, it started to emit a faint red light and when I picked it up I heard his voice."
He then told him what they had talked about together and that at noon he would talk with Dilan and Caleb about what to do next.
He also told him to stay with his father and Liam and that they would meet at the training grounds at the same time as usual.
Then he explained to him what he had decided to do with the rewards and Axel told him that he would ask him through their link if he had any doubt.
They finally got up and after showering and getting ready, they went to the kitchen to have their breakfast, which to their surprise was already served and Mykael was waiting for them at the table while watching their phoenix egg.
He smiled at them and beckoned them to join him at the table and he said to them cheerfully : "I didn't know what you would like to eat so I brought out a little bit of everything, how are you two doing this morning ?"
They greeted him warmly and reassured him that they were both doing very well, and after settling down across from him Axel then asked him : "Was it you who gave us this phoenix egg ?"
Mykael nodded and while they ate he explained to them what his duty as a God of Destruction was.
He told them he only cared for worlds without owners, which meant they had no God to protect them.
And he explained to them that when a world became too dangerous, and there were too many casualties, either because of technology or because of tyranny that could cause irreversible damage and cause the end of humanity, or because there were simply no more resources in this world due to the greed of its inhabitants, he then intervened and he reseted this world.
It was a security that the Creator himself had created for all the worlds to prevent them from exploding and forming a black hole that would cause much more trouble.
Then, the world that was reset was replaced by a new blank world, like a new page of a book that was just waiting to be written, and a new population and everything necessary to live freely and well was implanted in this new world.
He told them that he had saved this egg from a world whose resources had been totally plundered by its inhabitants, which had led to a climatic catastrophe that would have prevented any possible life in this world.
It was a doomed world, but the phoenix clan of this world was one of the most powerful he had ever seen so he saved this egg to save their heritage, otherwise all their knowledge would have been lost along with this world.
Kevin looked at that egg and said to it as he stroked it : "Don't worry ... You have a new family and a new world now, we'll take good care of you."
Mykael hadn't really expected that his son and son-in-law would get so attached to this future phoenix, he had only given him to them to become their bodyguard but apparently both of them had never thought of it that way.
Axel then asked him : "Did you change his lava stones ?"
Mykael nodded and said : "You left the magic bag containing the last lava stones next to him, so when I saw that they had turned black I changed them."
They both widened their eyes and Axel then asked him : "Do you know when he will hatch ?"
His father put his hand on the egg and he said to them : "Not before tonight, after having absorbed his last lava stones he must still assimilate them before to hatch.
Don't forget that these stones contain the sacred fire of the phoenix, and that this fire is a unique mutation of the fire and light particles.
By assimilating these stones he will acquire the necessary knowledge to be able to create this sacred fire himself, which will allow him to create very powerful attacks, especially against demons."
Kevin knew that their baby phoenix would not remain a baby for long, but it felt strange to think that he could already make this kind of decision when he was not even born yet.
A sudden thought occurred to him and he grabbed Axel's hand before asking Mykael hastily : "When Axel and I will have children, now that he has become a legendary creature, will their growth also be accelerated like this phoenix ?"
Mykael had almost choked when his son-in-law had asked him that question.. Damn, he knew that thanks to this mark of the Union they could have children, but to know it and the fact that he had asked him this kind of question, like that, without any preparation, was still a bit shocking for him.
