BXBX NOVEL Chapter 97 Fake Family
The bell for lunch break rang as the students started to troop out of the class, everyone had left except for two people who were seated on their seats.
Ella had asked Luis to come have lunch with her but he declined stating that he wasn't hungry, the part of not being hungry was true but he would have still followed her if he didn't have another reason for staying back.
Ace and Dylan didn't bother him as they both went to have lunch together.
As for the other person in the class, it was none other than the young demon Orah.
Luis waited for everybody to leave the class before he quickly turned to Orah.
"Now, start talking." He demanded.
"Hey, calm down bro, I just want to experience a bit of human life before I head back home," Orah said, still maintaining his calm and smooth voice.
Luis let out a little chuckle. "What do you take me for?"
"My classmate, an Angel, maybe a friend."
"A friend?" Luis said.
'This guy must be sick in the head or maybe it's all an act.' The Angel thought.
"Yes, I promise I'm not here to harm anybody, all my life I've been on that dark planet I've never been on a planet like this before."
Luis could have felt sorry for him but the fact that the person speaking to him was a full-fledged demon wouldn't let that feeling come out but he did see some meaning in his words.
The fact that he was a demon didn't necessarily mean he was evil, evil humans and good humans existed so shouldn't there be good demons but what Luis was afraid of was that this demon grew up with the other evil demons which meant that he might have already been influenced by the others.
He decided to let him be, for now, it's not as if he could just outright attack him in the class and how could he prove he was a demon when his aura vision could no longer see even the red outline he was able to see last night.
'Maybe his suppression skill leveled up.' Luis thought.
"Fine, but if you try anything fishy I will make sure you don't live to see another day." That was a threat coming from Luis.
"Noted, O mighty demon Slayer," Orah said with a slight bow.
Luis found it strange for him to say that since he was a demon himself.
Luis turned his back on him without paying attention to his little gesture.
One of the main reasons he hadn't outright attacked Orah was because his system hadn't given him any quest regarding him, if he was to be a threat he would have gotten a quest to destroy him by now but he wasn't really leaning on that because he also believed that his system may not have deemed him as a demon because of his suppression ability.
The bell rang again but this time it was for a different occasion as students could be seen walking into the class to pick one thing or the other.
"What's the bell for?" Orah asked.
"Combat classes," Luis answered.
"Combat classes." Orah sounded confused.
Luis explained what combat classes were to him and also told him about the three options for a combat class.
"Which class do you attend?" Orah asked.
"Martial arts."
"Come on Luis let's go." Luis turned towards the door to see Dylan standing, signaling him to come.
Without making eye contact with Orah Luis stood up and joined Dylan and the others on their walk to the martial arts class leaving Orah to think about which class to join.
The group of four had their normal chats on their way to the class with Silvia and Luis being the more reserved who didn't speak unless they were asked a question.
On opening the door to the hall, they could see that Monica and Henry were already there, and on sighting, Luis Monica rushed and gave him a hug which he was in no way expecting.
"I'm just glad you didn't get hurt." She said,
'What is even wrong with her.' Henry and Ella had the same thoughts as they couldn't keep their eyes off the scene.
"Thank you," Luis said as he slowly pulled himself away from her hands.
Monica was quite the emotional and caring one when it came to people's life, most people would have felt awkward after doing what she just did now but she didn't.
"Is the cute boy with you?" Monica asked, pointing behind Luis.
"Who?" Everyone turned to see who was now standing in front of the closed door.
"Orah," Luis muttered.
"I didn't even hear the door open," Ella said.
"Hi everyone," Orah said with a slight wave.
"That's Orah, he's a new student in our class," Dylan explained to Henry and Monica.
"I'm guessing you want to join the martial arts class Orah," Monica said.
"Yes," Orah said.
"Well, then you are welcome."
"Thank you."
'Out of the three classes, he decided to join the martial arts class.' Luis thought.
This meant that now he could keep check on his movements and know if he was planning anything or not.
While Monica was introducing everyone to Orah a squeak was heard coming from Michael's office and it didn't long before the CEO walked out wearing his training outfit.
On seeing him Monica rushed to him and repeated what he did to Luis, Michael smiled at her caring nature and then pulled out of the hug.
It didn't take him long to spot the new student in his class. He pointed at Orah and asked him to introduce himself.
"My name is Orah Smith, I live with my uncle back in Phoenix."
"We share the same last name," Monica said in excitement.
"You're from Phoenix?" Ella said.
"Yes," Orah said.
"Then why are you here?" She asked.
"Yeah, Phoenix academy is way better than Crockel's," Dylan said.
"I know but my uncle insisted that I came here." Was the response from Orah.
Michael called his class back to order with a clap of his hands.
"Well Orah from Phoenix, you are lucky to have missed my physical training, but are you sure you are ready for this part of the training?" Michael said.
"As long as it isn't too much for me I'm always ready."
The other students didn't quite get the meaning of his words even Michael but he waved it off as he went straight into the deal of the day.
"Alright students, you know last time you faced about a hundred level one demons together but today you will be doing things differently." He said, grabbing one of the VR headsets. "You will be facing twenty level two demons each and you will be doing it differently."
Dylan gulped after Michael finished saying the last part.
"Alright everyone get on the floor."
They all laid down on the floor as Michael handed them their VR headsets, the last to receive his own was Dylan who didn't have a pleasant look on his face.
"What is the power gap between a level and level two demon?" He asked after Michael handed him his VR headset.
"Don't worry Dylan, it's not real and they can't kill you."
Michael's answer wasn't a satisfying one but Dylan still put on his headset and laid down, Michael pushed the button and their bodies immediately went limp.
He then pushed another part of the button which caused seven screens to appear behind him, he could see that the fight between them and the demons had already started as he glanced through the screens until his gaze stopped on the seventh one.
Michael now had his mouth wide open as he watched the skills being displayed by Orah while dealing with the demons.
"How does he know that?" He said in disbelief.
Without wasting time he rushed to the table and opened up his laptop.
"Smith family in Phoenix empire." He said the words as he typed them into the system.
He expected to see something but what he was seeing now wasn't what he expected to see.
'There is no Smith family in the Phoenix empire.' were the words displayed on the computer screen.
