My Angel system

Orah caught his balance just before he could fall and immediately charged toward the Angel again.

Luis had improved in his hand-to-hand combat so far but he still wasn't that good when fighting without his abilities or weapons.

Orah went for a kick which was heading toward his face now but Luis was fast enough to block before doing a flip to get away from him before another kick followed.

"You've gotten a lot faster compared to the last time we fought," Orah said.

"You think?" Luis said getting in his fighting pose.

'If my golden fortification was active you would be screaming.' He thought.

'That's the point of the training, you're not going to have the golden fortification forever.' Lena said.

'I know.' Luis replied as he charged toward the Demon who didn't move an inch.

He feigned a kick down his gut before going for a sliding kick to bring him down.

Orah had predicted what he was going to do as he quickly jumped up to avoid the kick and coming down now, he was aiming to match down on Luis' gut.

Luis was lucky to have rolled out of there on time, that would have been a painful hit.

He quickly got up on his feet and quickly sent a punch toward Orah's stomach but the Demon was fast enough to block it with his right arm before jumping up and pushing him back with a double kick.

Luis staggered back a few steps before catching his balance.

'He said you improved in speed but he's equally fast.' Lena said.

"With your abilities, you can be a little bit unpredictable but in a fight like this, your attacks are quite predictable," Orah said.

"Predictable?"

"Yeah, they are two basic and predictable, try to mix them up a bit, you don't beat your opponents by going easy on them and you also have to realize that it's not all about strength, strength is a big factor but without technique, you'll lose to somebody with lower strength but better technique in this kind of fight," Orah explained.

"Where did you learn all these from?" Luis asked as he was quite surprised to hear him spit all these words out.

"We have a martial arts training temple on my planet plus, I read a lot of books just like you," Orah answered.

"I don't read a lot of books," Luis said, shaking his head. "I'm mostly interested in books related to Angels."

"Oh," Orah said.

"You said my moves are predictable right?" The Angel asked.

"Yeah," Orah said with a nod.

"Well, I'm going to try and be a little less predictable now," Luis said slowly making his way toward him.

Orah stared at him for a while with a strange expression on his face, Luis had noticed it and that was why he had stopped to ask.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" The Angel asked.

"You're trying to use your compel on me right?" Orah said.

"Compel?" Luis said with a confused expression on his face.

"Yeah, I can feel the waves bouncing off my head, you know it doesn't work on us," Orah said.

"Waves?"

"Yeah, I feel it anytime someone tries to use their compulsion on me, and that's what you're trying to do now," Orah said.

"No, I'm not," Luis said, shaking his head.

"You're not?" Orah said with a confused expression on his face.

"No."

'Wait, Luis someone is trying to use compel on him but it's not that type of compel.' Lena said.

'Huh?'

'Your aura vision.' Lena said.

[ Aura vision activated ]

Luis quickly activated his aura vision to see a dark green aura attached to Orah's head.

"It has to be him," Luis muttered.

"What?" Orah said.

Luis followed the dark green aura until it had led him to a particular part of the thick flowers around them where someone was hiding.

The person was hidden perfectly but Luis could see him perfectly because of his aura vision.

The Angel stared at the spot for a while before he slowly began to make his way there.

"What's going on Luis?" Orah asked as he was very confused.

'If only I could see people's faces clearly with this aura vision.'

He didn't reply to Orah's questions as he slowly walked toward the bush.

The person behind the bush had noticed his movements and had immediately taken to his heels before he could get any closer.

Luis immediately took off toward him and by the time he had jumped over the thick flowers the person was already a distance away from him and had taken the left turn along the building there.

Luis had stopped there as he knew it was no use chasing him, he would have already hidden somewhere by now or mixed up with the other students.

'It's no use, Luis.' Lena said.

'I know, I just wish this golden fortification had activated.' He grumbled, subconsciously.

'You didn't feel threatened, remember what Nova said, it only activates when you feel threatened by someone.' Lena said.

'I know.' Luis replied.

"Luis." 𝑓𝒓𝚎e𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯𝘰𝐯𝒆𝑙.c𝚘m

Luis slowly turned after hearing his name to see Orah standing beside him with a questioning look on his face.

"What's going on, who was that and why were you chasing him?" Orah asked.

"That was the person who was causing you to feel those vibrations in your head," Luis said pointing in the direction that the person had run off in.

"He was the person who was trying to use compel on me?"

"It's not exactly compel, it's called mind deception," Luis said.

"Why would he want to use that on me?" Orah asked still not clear about anything.

"So that you can fight me and probably kill me," Luis said.

"Huh?" Orah said with a confused expression on his face.

____ ____

Nova was lying alone in her bed in the room which was meant for her and Nicole in the apartment.

She was kicking her leg in the air and staring at the ceiling with certain happy thoughts going through her mind.

You would be sure that she was having thoughts because a smile had suddenly appeared on her face.

That smile had faded away as soon as it appeared as she sprang up from her bed, quickly rushed to the windows to close them, rushed to the light switch and turned the lights off, and then locked the door before returning to the small table beside her bed.

She slowly knelt beside the table and placed her right hand on it as a white light quickly shot out from it to create a white frame right in front of her.

It didn't take long before the image of the leader of the first Angel faction appeared there and Nova had immediately done a little bow.

"Nova," Asheru called with a scolding voice.

Nova had her gaze down for a few seconds before quickly raising it to speak.

"I know I was supposed to return a few days ago but I am still trying to find out some things about the Angel," Nova said.

"What are you still trying to find out about the Angel? I have you an order to capture him and the Demi-Angels and bring them back here!"

Nova felt shivers run down her spine as she inhaled deeply and exhaled before speaking.

"You told me that an eleventh crystal appeared out of nowhere in the council room, I am trying to find out if the Angel has any connection to it," Nova said. 𝙛𝑟𝑒e𝘸𝑒𝗯𝘯𝗼𝘃el.𝒄𝒐m

"And what makes you think he may have a connection to it?" Asherus asked.

"He has secrets and I am getting closer to finding them out, how do you think I found out about his Demi-Angels?"

"So, you are close to him?" Asherus asked.

"In a way."

"Have you revealed your identity to him?"

"No," Nova said, shaking his head. "I want to slowly find out all that he is hiding before capturing him."

"Is the Angel growing stronger in any way?" Asherus asked.

"His aura has grown stronger but not that much," Nova said.

"Then I don't think he has any connection to the crystal because the aura surrounding the crystal has grown quite stronger compared to the day we found it," Asherus said.

"Oh," Nova said.

"But I will still give you time to finish what you are doing and return with the Angels and Demi-Angels, I'm giving you six days," Asherus said.

"That's all I need," Nova muttered.

"Do not fail me, Nova."

"Wait, there's something I think you should know," Nova said.

"What?"

"There is a young Demon among the humans, he has his aura suppressed and is claiming to be a human student," Nova said.

"That is not our problem Nova, the humans can protect themselves, focus on your mission, and return as soon as your time is due," Asherus said.

"Okay," Nova said slowly bowing her head as the frame along with Asherus disappeared. "Father."

She let out a deep sigh as she quickly turned her gaze to the door and just then she began to hear knocking sounds coming from it.

She quickly got up, rushed toward the door, and opened it to see Nicole standing there with a puzzled look on her face.

"Why did you lock the door?" She asked slowly stepping into the room. "And why is everywhere so dark?"

She quickly turned on the lights expecting to see something unusual but there was nothing to be seen.
