My Angel system

Luis knew right from the time he got matched up with Pearl that this wasn't going to be an easy fight as he wasn't going to use his ability but he was excited because he was finally facing off against Pearl in a real fight at least that's what he was going to make her think.

He was the first to reach the arena floor and kept his gaze on Pearl until she had reached the arena floor opposite him.

"You know this isn't going to be easy," Luis said.

"I thought you were supposed to tell yourself that, like in your mind," Pearl said jokingly.

"Just don't hold back much," Luis said as the countdown began.

"I'm planning to," Pearl muttered.

As soon as the countdown had ended Luis summoned his flaming sword and got ready to attack.

He cautiously moved to her before stopping midway to ask her something.

"You know I've never gotten to see what your soul weapon looks like." The young Angel said, putting his sword down.

"Are you sure you want to see that?" Pearl asked.

"Yeah, why not?" Luis said.

"Okay," Pearl said as a long silver Katana blade with a silver hilt appeared in her hand.

Luis stared at the Katana blade for a while without saying anything, he was speechless.

"I can't believe I have been her classmate and friend for three years and I didn't know about her soul weapon until now," Presley said, appearing beside Tammy.

"Pearl only trains with her sword in private, she says it's for emergencies only," Tammy said.

"That's not an emergency," Presley said with her gaze on the screen.

"How do you have such an amazing soul weapon and you didn't use it throughout your previous fights in the arena?" Luis said.

"Looking cool doesn't mean it's amazing and I didn't use it because I haven't seen a reason to," Pearl said. "But I think it will be useful against you."

"You don't want to use your water ability against me? Come on, you know I can take it." Luis said.

"I know you can but I think a little sword duel would be okay," Pearl said, looking down at his sword.

"Why are those two talking like they know each other?" Sonia asked with a pondering look on her face.

"That's because they know each other," Ella said. She wanted to say more but Sonia didn't give her the time.

"He knows Pearl Reeves, one of the strongest students in Crockel academy, not only that she's also one of the prettiest girls around," Sonia said. "I wonder why he didn't tell me that."

"I don't think you two have known each for that long. I mean what has he ever even told you?" Ella said.

As soon as those words had left her mouth she had received a sharp glance from Sonia forcing her to slowly turn her gaze back to the screen.

Luis and Pearl were engaged in a sword duel after Pearl had said they were talking too much and should probably start doing what they were supposed to do.

Luis expected Pearl's swordsmanship to be a little sloppy given that she hardly used the Katana blades at least that's what he thought but was by far the most skillful person out of the two when it came to fighting with swords.

Her skills were graceful compared to Luis' skills which didn't have anything unique attached to it.

Her hits were also very powerful and with each sword clash, Luis was getting overwhelmed.

,m It wasn't a matter of strength, it was a matter of technique and Luis didn't have a really good technique when it came to using swords.

Luis was trying his best to keep up with her as he was getting pushed back with each slash.

The reason he had been able to last this long in the sword duel was his improved agility.

"She's really good with that Katana," Presley said.

"Oh, maybe Luis is just bad with his sword," Tammy said, causing Presley to turn to her but she didn't care as she kept her gaze on the screen.

'You really need to take a few lessons from her.' Lena said as Luis blocked a strike from Pearl.

"I know," Luis said as he tried to slash her with his sword but she parried his sword away and gave him a kick to the side which sent him tumbling backward before he quickly got back on his feet again.

"You have good skills but they need a little improvement," Pearl said.

"Yeah, I think I prefer getting blasted with your water blast than you frustrating me like this," Luis said.

"No, I'm enjoying this," Pearl said.

"I'm not," Luis said.

"Well since it's a competition it's not supposed to be enjoyed by the person who is meant to win," Pearl said.

"Just use your water ability, you'll still get the same result and it's more fun that way," Luis said.

The reason why he was so keen on getting her to use her water ability was that he wanted to get his water ability to the next level and with Pearl's level of water ability, her water blast was going to get the job done.

"Okay," Pearl said as her Katana blade vanished from her hand. "You really weren't planning to take this fight seriously."

"I was but my chances of winning against you are very minimal given that I don't have any ability," Luis said.

"Hope you can take this," Pearl said as she blasted him with water blasts coming from both of her hands.

"Alright," Luis said with a smile as he returned his flaming sword to his inventory.

He formed an X with his hand to block the water blasts, he was slowly getting pushed and it looked like he was actually blocking the water blasts but what he was actually doing was using his water ability to reduce the force of the blasts when they hit him.

Luis was getting hit and pushed back but still, he had not gotten any message from his system indicating that his water ability points were going up.

'What's happening?' He thought.

'I don't know.' Lena replied.

[ Water ability points: 0/60 ]

'What?' Luis was shocked by what he was seeing and that had brought about his lack of concentration as he got blasted back by Pearl's water blasts until he had crashed against the wall.

Pearl quickly rushed to him to see if he was okay and his groans were a sign of that.

"I thought you were going to take in the blasts just like you did when we were at that place," Pearl said.

"I guess I lost concentration," Luis said, sitting up to rest his back against the wall.

"I guess this is the part where I knock you out," Pearl said.

"No need for that, I'm tapping out," Luis said, raising his hand to show that he didn't want to continue the fight.

"That fight seemed really friendly to a certain disturbing degree but there has to be a winner in every fight." Lieutenant Kate announced.

As soon as Lieutenant Kate had made that announcement Pearl offered Luis a hand up which he gladly accepted.

"I guess I'll see you later." She said before walking back to be taken up by the earth pillar.

"Yeah," Luis said as he was being lifted by an earth pillar.

"Are you okay?" Ella asked as soon as he had gotten close to them.

"Of course he's okay, the fight wasn't even serious," Sonia said.

"Yeah but hitting that wall was serious." Ella turned to Sonia to say before turning back to Luis.

"I'm okay," Luis said, aware that she still wanted answers to her question.

"Okay," Ella said with a nod.

Looking at the two girls which he was standing in between, he knew there was a little bit of tension between them as he could clearly read both of their minds.

He didn't want to but he had to and after finding out the reason why they were looking at each other that way he decided to move a little distance away from them.

"I need to go ask Orah something."

That was his excuse to get away from the two and none of them said anything about it.

'I understand Ella's line of thoughts but Sonia's thoughts aren't so nice for the nice girl I thought she was.' He thought as he made his way to where Orah, Monica, and Henry were standing.

'Do I even want to know what they are thinking?' Lena said.

'I don't think you do.' Luis replied.

"That was one friendly fight with lots of conversations," Monica said as soon as Luis had gotten close to them.

"There was no point fighting her," Luis said.

"You could have at least tried," Monica said.

"I did," Luis replied.

The matching process had begun again as everyone turned their attention back to the screen but Luis wasn't interested in that as he turned his attention to his system.

[ Water ability points: 0/60 ]

'All those water blasts and I didn't get at least one water ability point, why?' The Angel wondered.

'I wish I knew.' Lena said.

'Is this like some sort of cap, like my abilities have their limit abilities at level five.'

'That may be the case since there's no other explanation to what happened.' Lena said.

Luis seemed really dejected to hear that, he was expecting much more from his abilities only to have them stop leveling up at level five.
