Chapter 177 Healing The Wolf
The Angel was quite impressed by how well his compel had worked on Pearl completely stopping her from using her water ability. If he were to guess he would say that his compel wouldn't work on Pearl at its current level but it turns out not everyone is strong in the aspect you expect them to be.
Luis watched her struggle for a while before deciding to set her free.

Pearl let out a sigh of relief as she could feel her hands again but she still went ahead to summon water around her hands.
She didn't try to attack like she had been trying to and just watched Luis in the middle of the two wolves in amazement.
She wanted to get closer but as she took a step forward the other wolf turned to her with a growl.
"Allow her Jack," Luis said, placing his hand on the wolf's back.
The wolf heeded his master's command as it drew back allowing Pearl to get closer.
"How are you doing this?" Pearl asked as she drew closer.
"They weren't trying to attack us but you hurt him," Luis said, looking at the wound which was still bleeding.
The hurt wolf was moaning slightly as the wound on his back was seriously paining him.
The two wolves were the two original male wolves Tori and Jack which Luis had converted into his pets. The one that had gotten hurt by Pearl was Tori and the wolf was getting weaker and weaker as it lost more blood.
"Can't you do anything to stop the bleeding?" Pearl asked.
"I don't think there's anything I can do," Luis said.
Of course, there was something he could do like transferring his reserve life force and turning the wolf into a Demi-Angel but that didn't sound right to him in any way.
Luis was trying to think of something but nothing was coming to his mind, he could use the teleport and hope it teleports them somewhere near the school but there was no way he was going to hide a wolf this big in the school.
"Aren't there any leaves like the mugwort leaf around here?" Pearl asked.
"Mugwort leaf?"
"Yeah, a special leaf that's really helpful in stopping bleeding," Pearl explained.
"I don't know," Luis said. "Even if there is a mugwort here, what's our chance of finding it?"
Immediately after saying that Jack stood up from where it was lying like something was calling it and zoomed off.
"Where is he going?" Pearl asked.
"I don't know," Luis replied as he watched the wolf until he had run inside the forest.
He kept looking in that direction until Jack rushed out of the forest carrying a leaf in his mouth.
"That's it, that's the mugwort leaf," Pearl said immediately after Jack had returned to them.
"That's the leaf?" Luis said, taking the leaf from Jack's mouth. "How do you use it?"
"Let me have it," Pearl said, stretching her hands towards him and he didn't hesitate to drop the leaf in her hands.
She rubbed the leaf on her hand until the thing had gotten completely smoldered but it had released a large amount of a very viscous green liquid.
Pearl was cautious as he bent over the wolf and placed her hands over the wound and allowed the viscous liquids to slowly flow into the wound.
The wolf screeched and twitched as soon as the liquid entered the wound but Luis was there to keep him under control.
The bleeding stopped a few minutes after the liquid had touched every part of the wound and now it looked like the wound was beginning to close up slightly.
With the wound taken care of Tori was able to get up from the floor but his legs were weak and shaky due to the amount of blood he had lost.
"Alright return to the others now and don't come out here again, you can look for food over there," Luis whispered to the wolves.
The wolves began to walk away immediately after Luis had told them that. They could have run off like they usually did but because of Tori's state, Jack decided to walk with him.
Luis watched the wolves until they took the turn at the other end and disappeared, that was when he decided to turn back to Pearl.
Pearl had her hands folded with a little frown on her face as she looked directly at Luis.
"Ok, we should get that spar over with and leave this place before someone starts looking for us," Luis said.
"Forget about the spar and start talking," Pearl said with a kind of seriousness that Luis hadn't seen in her before.

Dylan was trying to relax just as Ace was doing, he had just woken up from his nap and was trying to relax on his bed when he suddenly received three beeps from his watch.
He quickly checked the message and had almost fallen off his bed after he had seen the contents of the message.
"Dylan." Ace called as he dropped his book on his stomach and looked up.
"What?" Dylan asked.
"Stop shaking."
"I wanted to come down," Dylan said, jumping down from the bed.
"Where are you going?" Ace asked.
"To the store?" Dylan said slowly moving to the door, he was acting more tense than usual.
"To do what?" Ace asked, giving him a suspicious look.
"To buy a… snack I'm really hungry, that training took a lot out of me."
Ace stared at him for quite a while before turning back to his book.
"Buy some for me too." He said.
"Ok," Dylan said as he slowly slipped out of the room.
He only had one destination in mind and he quickly walked there ignoring everything that was around him.
Nova was buying something from one of the groceries stores in the area when she spotted Dylan walking past the shop.
"That's one of Miles' friends." She said to herself. "I wonder where he's going?"
The reason why she was wondering where he was going was that after the warehouse there was nothing else and to keep walking on that track was quite useless because it wouldn't take you anywhere.
She kept her gaze on Dylan and just as she suspected, Dylan had stopped in front of the warehouse before the door was slowly opened and he walked in.
"I was told nothing was being done in that warehouse." She said and quickly walked off.
"Here are your items ma." The shop owner came out with a bag containing everything Nova had bought but she wasn't anywhere to be found. "Where did she go?"
Nova had decided to approach the warehouse from the back instead of the front. She had used her aura vision at first to see the kind of activities going on in there.
'Humans can really be blind with their ordinary eyes.' She thought. 'I wonder what that boy would be doing in a place like this.'
"Time to find out." She said as her body quickly shrunk to a very tiny size.
She looked like a tiny white bulb as she zoomed into the building from the tiny openings at the back.
