Chapter 258 Flawless Victory
Since Luis had known Orah he had never seen the young Demon get angry like this, he seemed very nice and kind and his attitude had managed to convince Luis to some extent that there were really good Demons out there.
He wasn't mistaken by taking for a nice Demon because yeah Orah was a nice guy for those who didn't know he was a Demon but his mood seemed to have completely gone sour after his father had shown him that vision.
"Orah, calm down," Luis said, stepping in between him and Monica before things went out of hand.
"I'm not going to tell anyone, I just needed an explanation of how your wounds healed at the clinic and why you ran off like that?" Monica said.
"You saw that?" Orah said as his face slowly returned to its normal color and his breathing returned to normal. "Was that why you were looking for me?"
"Yeah," Monica said.
Orah thought she had just decided to spy on them for no reason but now he knew he was the one who had created the suspicion and if he had tried to hear her out at the arena maybe she wouldn't have followed them.
"Oh," Orah said.
"I can't believe that all this while you were a Demon," Monica said. "Lucifer's son."
She spoke with mixed feelings of excitement and amazement.
"I don't think you should be saying that out loud," Luis said.
"Sorry, are you a Demon too?" She asked.
"No," Luis said.
"Listen, Monica, you shouldn't know about this," Orah said.
"I know you're keeping it a secret and I'm not going to spoil that for you as long as you're on our side," Monica said. "I promise I won't tell anyone."
Orah turned to Luis who gave him a nod, there was nothing he could do, it's not like he could kill her for finding out, and even if he tried to, Luis was there to hold him off.
"Ok," Orah said.
"Can I ask you something?" Monica asked.
"What?" Orah said.
"Why were you in such a hurry to tell Luis about your vision?" Monica asked.
'Maybe it's time to get another ally.' Lena said.
'She just found out that Orah is a Demon and you want me to just tell her that I am an Angel.'
'Yeah.'
'No.' Luis replied. 'I think I have enough allies for now.'
"Because I didn't see him in the vision," Orah answered.
He knew Luis didn't want him to tell Monica who he really was because the Angel had not given him any hint to do so.
"Ok but if the situation in the vision was too bad, shouldn't you tell someone who could get it to the higher-ups so they can start getting ready for his attack?" Monica suggested.
"No they would doubt the source of the information and who do you plan on configuring it so that I don't enter the spotlight?" Orah said.
"I don't know but if the vision you were telling him about is true then they should know about it," Monica said.
"It looked serious but it may or may not happen or it's just my father's way of trying to mess with my mind," Orah said.
"Huh?" Luis said.
"The vision is scary but it doesn't bother me much because I know there is a high chance that it's one of his tricks but what bothers me is the fact that he will soon begin his attacks on earth," Orah said.
"I think we should head inside and continue this conversation later before someone comes out here and sees us," Luis said.
"Yeah," Monica said, turning back. "Let me go in first so that we don't get any suspicious looks from anybody."
Monica turned and quickly made her way back to the arena and as soon as she had entered through the gate, Orah and Luis began to walk towards it.
Nothing was said between the two as Luis had certain thoughts running through his mind.
'He was Lucifer's son all this while and I didn't know.' The Angel thought.
'But he's nothing like his father.' Lena said.
'Yeah, but if he's Lucifer's son that means there's a chance that he can be a threat somehow.' Luis replied to her.
The two entered the arena as soon as the fight going on in the arena had come to an end.
Luis looked at the spot where he was standing to see that Sonia was still there.
'I think it's better if I stay here.' He thought as he stopped walking and turned to face the screen.
Orah had walked a few steps away from him before turning to face the screen.
The selection process began as an image of Ace stopped in the first box and that of another male student appeared in the other box.
The next fight will be between Ace Brock and Jace Loyd."
Luis turned back and had immediately made eye contact with Ace who was walking towards the earth pillar raised by Lieutenant Kate.
He was upset with Luis for helping Dylan yesterday and you could tell he still hasn't gotten over it with the way he turned away from the Angel.
Luis let out a sigh as he turned to face the screen.
Ace made it down to the arena floor where Jace was already standing opposite him.
Jace was a second-year student and just like Ace, he was in the elemental class.
Ace stuck his hands in his pocket and walked closer to Have as the countdown began.
"Five, four, three, two, one." Lieutenant Kate decided to help the AI voice do the countdown this time.
Jace quickly raised both of his hands to lift two large pieces of earth which he quickly sent flying towards Ace.
Ace didn't move from where he was standing as he used his hand to form a wind rotation which sent both pieces of earth away from him and crashed on the walls of the arena.
Jace didn't stop with his earth attacks despite that as he formed five large earth blades and sent them all flying toward Ace.
Ace still standing on the same spot used his wind ability to direct all the blades away from him.
"If you're not going to try something different then you should just surrender." Ace said.
"I like your sense of humor Ace but don't forget that I beat you in a spar at the elemental class," Jace said.
"Did you?" Ace said.
"Don't worry, let me repeat it," Jace said as he summoned his spear and ran forward.
Ace slowly pulled his hands out of his pocket as he got ready for Jace.
Jace closed up and tried to thrust his spear at Ace but he wasn't going to let that happen as he stepped to the side to block that and with a kick knocked the spear off Jace's hand.
Jace tried to hit him with a punch but Ace with the help of his wind ability was faster and had given him a devastating kick that sent him flying backward.
"Bastard." Jace groaned as he slowly got up and pulled up two earth pieces larger than the last one, he sent them flying towards Ace.
"That was a mistake." Ace said.
He used his wind ability to rotate the earth pieces before sending them back to Jace.
Jace tried to stop the earth pieces with his earth ability but the only thing he had done was break them into smaller pieces as Ace's wind kept pushing them until they had hit him, sending him back and knocking him out in the process.
"That was quick and easy." Lieutenant Kate said.
"That was flawless," Luis muttered.
The more he watched Michael and Ace use their wind ability, the more he was getting convinced that the wind ability should be his choice among the new elemental abilities he had to choose from.
