...Devyl absorbed this information with growing fascination, feeling his desire to be part of that mysterious place increase with each step. At the same time, he worried, pondering how he would persuade the Adept in charge to accept him, especially considering the 1000 Laer registration fee, money he did not possess....
...After hours of curious incursions, Devyl realized that his turn to face Kairos was approaching. A female Adept showed him the way and ordered him to enter the first door on the right....
...Devyl swallowed hard, approaching the office door cautiously. He touched the doorknob, turning it slowly, remembering the candidates who had warned him about the etiquette of not facing Kairos directly unless he allowed it....
...Upon entering, he kept his gaze lowered, avoiding any gesture that could be interpreted as disrespectful. Kairos, in turn, had not yet turned his attention to the young man in front of him, absorbed in the paperwork he was handling. ...
...A transparent communication device, shaped like an arcane symbol, interrupted the silence with a slight noise....
... "One second..." Kairos interrupted, putting the device to his ear....
...Devyl listened attentively as Kairos spoke to someone on the other side. The conversation revealed a past relationship and the Adept's assertive tone indicated that he was not willing to rekindle old connections....
... "What do you want? No. We're done, Trevis. I haven't been your boyfriend for a long time. Now, excuse me, I have work...."
...With that, Kairos removed the device from his ear, turning his attention to the candidate before him....
..."Give me your registration form...."
...Devyl handed over the blank paper. Kairos' serious expression indicated his dissatisfaction with the omission....
..."Why didn't you fill it out? Do you think I'm here to guess your name?..."
...The young man did not hesitate, kneeling promptly and seeking a way to remedy the situation. In a gesture of desperation, he put his forehead on the floor and began to speak....
..."My name is Devyl, just Devyl. I am twenty-five years old and I cannot read or write. Much less do I have any money. However, I have a fierce determination to become an Adept of one of the Fallen...."
...Kairos, impassive, kept his expression, not revealing his impressions....
..."We only require two things and you have neither, how do you think you will get in here?..."
...It was at this moment that Devyl pondered his last option, considering Kairos' possible orientation: sex....
..."I will pay the fee and take the written test with my body," he declared, facing Kairos resolutely....
...Upon hearing the bold proposal, Kairos smiled discreetly, revealing a mischievous smile....
...If Devyl understood correctly, the man in front of him was gay, inclined to prefer other men. Devyl himself considered himself attractive and in great physical shape. His black hair was well-groomed and his body denoted a lifetime of physical activity. ...
...He contemplated the man in front of him with a mixture of expectation and uncertainty. Kairos had a striking presence, his white hair gleaming under the light, his blue eyes sparkling intensely, and his fair skin displaying a unique sophistication. The set of his appearance was, without a doubt, worthy of admiration. For a moment, Devyl wondered if he was facing one of the archangels themselves, after all, they said that they were the most beautiful creatures in this world....
