My Angelic System

"He's right. I didn't want him to die since it would have surely lessened our points. So I kept an eye on him this whole time," Suha said after Maria looked at him furiously. "And I want you two to stop picking a fight with him. You're pissing me and annoying me. Not to add that the professors surely keep an eye on us to see how we act, and that would surely impact our points. So stop being childish and rest because the moment our energy is full, we will go and fight again."

Suha made the tension in the cave go up with what he said. He was strong enough to hold his ground even if Maria and John were to both join hands and try to beat him. But if they were to do so, it would be hard to continue the exam without any other conflicts.

Both of them were tasked to make Kye's life hard during the exam, and even kill him if possible. Of course not directly. A monster slipping between them who then killed Kye was the best outcome for them. However, Suha made things hard for Maria and John. Even though he didn't come from a big family, he still had enough of a background to not shy away from them. So even though Azul had also tasked Suha to do the same thing as Maria and John, it was up to him to decide if he wanted to or not.

Unlike Maria who had to follow Azul's order and John who owed a big time to the Viso family, Suha didn't have such things that could force him to do things that he didn't want to. And he was showing it clearly by opposing them the moment they were trying to attack Kye.

Suha didn't mind putting Kye in his place either if he was to disobey his order as the leader of the group, but he didn't want to create useless conflict. So if he had to take Kye's side to make things better so that they could keep the first place, he would do so gladly.

Of course not openly, but still enough to make sure that he would die. And Suha, since it was clear to Azul back then that he didn't want to take part in their secret scheme, didn't know that they aimed to kill Kye.

So even though he was ready to protect him, he wouldn't be able to say anything if it was an 'accident' that killed Kye.

"Tch," Maria and John clicked their tongues as they began to rest for real this time. They didn't want to mess up their exam either, so even though they would make sure that Kye will see an unfortunate death, they will still try their best to stay first so that they could get as many rewards as possible after the end of the exam.

As for Kye, he smiled and nodded to Suha to show his thanks, only to be answered with a cold glare. 'Even thanking people such as them seems to be unnecessary. They will just keep glaring at me as if I murdered their whole family,' Kye thought as he kept his smile on. It truly annoyed him to have to act like this when on the inside, he was clearly dissatisfied with the situation. But what could he do? Even though his angel abilities seem like real abilities, they didn't show it on his watch. So even if his abilities were strong, people would keep thinking that he was a lowly level 1.

'Now that I think about it, I was wondering if it was really possible for me to get an ability even though I have my angel's power, but since the energy, I have from being an angel is different from those an ability gives, I think it is possible,' Kye thought with a lot of excitation. He wasn't sure of him being able to get an ability, but not anymore since his theory made a lot of sense to him. 'But there's still a problem. What will I do if after I got an ability, the energy it gave me clashes with my angel energy? Won't it make me unable to use either of them? Or worse, won't I die because of the energies ravaging my body because they clash?'

While he was full of excitation earlier, he was now worried about getting an ability. Sure it sounds good and powerful, but if it was at the expanse of him dying, then it would surely not be a good idea to get one. 𝐟𝐫𝗲𝙚ｗ𝚎𝐛𝙣𝐨𝙫𝘦𝗹.c૦m

But he quickly dissipated this thought away to focus on what was in front of him. That is to say, the exam. Sure he didn't have a lot to do, but he couldn't let his guard down.

Though, while they were resting, Kye couldn't help but play with the ring that contained his sword. He still had many questions about it, but couldn't get any answer. His only way to get some was to level up, but he couldn't do that either for the next few days since his group didn't let him do anything.

'Should I try to sneak out when they will sleep during the night?' Kye thought. 'No, there's no way Suha will let me go, even if he's half asleep. And even if I manage to sneak out, it's better to not attract unwanted attention from them. They will surely question me on how I managed to kill a monster while being a level one without ability. Question that I don't want to answer.'

While he was thinking about this and that, no words were spoken among the group. It was as if they stayed together only for the sake of the exam, making Kye miss all the sounds his friends were producing when they were hanging out.

'I wonder what they are doing. I don't think any monsters in this low-level zone will be strong enough to pose a threat to any of them but I can't help but worry. Still, they will surely have an easier time than me regarding this exam. They can all rule over their groups whether by using their influence or their levels, not that they are the type to do that,' As he thought that, all his friends, even though we were all far away from the others, felt as if Kye was worried about them, making them all smile at the same time.

'I hope Kye is doing good,' They all thought at the same time. 'If there's any god out there, make sure to protect him.'

Unbeknownst to them, their prayer got answered in the form of a system window that appear right in front of Kye's view.

[Your friends are praying for your well-being from the bottom of their hearts in those difficult times]

[Their prayer should be answered]

Even though Kye was taken aback by the timing of the system window and its message, Kye hoped that it wouldn't make things difficult for him. 'Please, do not make anything flashy.'

And his plea got answered because nothing fancy happened. No golden light came out from his body, no pain changed his body, nor did anything appear out of thin air. Making him extremely relieved. 𝙛𝘳𝘦e𝓌e𝗯n𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝚘𝑚

Still, his system didn't stop after the last window.

[A holy random box had been granted to you]

[Holy random box: A box that holds a random holy artifact in it. Exclusive to the Angel race]

Kye blinked a few times seeing the box inside the system's window. It was a white box with a golden color edge with what looked like angel's wings coming from both sides of it. It has a heavenly look that made Kye even more curious.

However, the box description made him even more curious. 'A holy artifact? Does the sword heaven give me back then also a Holy artifact? Then does that mean that I can have another thing like my sword?' He began to be excited again, forgetting all his earlier worries. 'As for the race, does that means there are other angels out of there? Or did the system put the word 'race' because I'm the only one, to not be confused with beasts, which in one way or another, is also a race? Or even the human race?'
