...Alex watched Devyl from the first day, unable to look away. A mixture of curiosity and enchantment drove him. He wondered about the possibilities of Devyl's orientation, whether he could be gay, bi, or identify with any orientation other than heterosexual....
...As they got up for the next class, Alex didn't hesitate to put his arm around Devyl's shoulder....
..."Let's go to the next class together!"...
...Devyl was surprised by the gesture, but didn't object....
..."Of course!"...
...In the next class, a candidate approached them, but Alex's attention was fully focused on Devyl, almost as if they were competing for the guy's attention....
...Gabriela, like Alex, couldn't help but feel drawn to Devyl. She wondered where he came from and how someone could make her heart race like that. In her mind, she was already claiming Devyl for herself....
...While Alex continued to watch Devyl, he saw the boy trying to write his own name several times....
..."Why are you writing your name repeatedly?" Alex asked, curious....

This form of magic was limited; the user could only perform a few spells per day. Once they reached that limit, they showed signs of fatigue or even fainting, needing time to recover. Sometimes, they would only be fully refreshed the next day....
...On the other hand, by making a pact with an entity, be it an angel or a deity, the source of magic was expanded. There was no rapid depletion, but there were still limits. It was a power reserve that extended for hours, especially useful in battle situations....
...The adept responsible for the explanation was a devotee of Belzebu, as indicated by the tattoo of a wine glass on the back of her hand. This symbol represented the worldly pleasures associated with this archangel....
...As he listened to the magnificent instruction, Devyl wondered about Azazyel's symbol and whether he would accept it as his Adept. It was an important decision, and he was beginning to understand the complexity and depth of the world he was being introduced to....
