Chapter 175 Triangular Blue Light
The students were sweating profusely and panting as they all made their way back to the martial arts class. Well, they were all sweating and panting except for someone.
Luis didn't get tired despite everything they did, he wasn't sweating and to prevent anybody from getting suspicious he was pretending to pant.
He may have fooled Henry and Silvia with that but there was someone who had been paying attention to him throughout the training session to know that he was faking it.
'All that training and he doesn't look anything like tired.' Monica thought.
Luis wasn't the only one the training didn't zap out like the other students, Orah was still okay after all the training but he was somehow sweating and was doing the pretend pants better than Luis.
"I was supposed to be enjoying my time this weekend but here I am getting all my strength zapped out of me during an ordinary training session," Henry said.
"Don't you ever call this an ordinary training session?" Dylan said panting heavily.
The funniest thing to note about Dylan was that he was the only person that had mud splattered all over his shirt; the rest of them just had little mud stains on their pants.
"That wasn't so much of a big deal," Orah whispered to Luis.
"You wouldn't be saying that if you were human," Luis whispered back.
The normal students were still trying to catch their breath when Michael suddenly appeared before them.
"You guys take a few minutes to catch your breath and we will continue later," Michael said as he walked up to his office.
While the others were using the time to catch their breath, Luis decided to check something in his system.
[ 70/100 Energy ]
All that training had used up only thirty percent of his energy and that was the reason he wasn't feeling tired at all, if he was still a Demi-Angel he would have been among those trying to catch their breaths as he wasn't sure his energy was up to this level then.
His energy then was like that of a human and the only thing his power drain allowed him to do was to absorb extra energy which would be temporary.
[ 30/50 reserve energy ]
His reserve energy which he had gotten from eating food yesterday was still there and one thing he had noticed about them was that they weren't meant to refill his normal energy, whenever it went down.
"Hey," Orah called to knock Luis back to reality. "You've been standing there looking in that direction for quite a while now."
"Oh, I didn't realize that, I got lost in my thoughts," Luis said, tapping his head.
"Oh, you must be thinking of how to stop my…. I mean Lucifer." Orah said.
"I don't have special times to think about that, it's always resounding in my mind," Luis said as his gaze slowly shifted to Orah's eyes which were like a pair of red burning flames.
"I never thought I would see a Demon, who's different." He made sure none of the other students were close to them before saying that.
"Then you don't know much about Demons then," Orah said.
"Huh?"
"There are a few demons like me back on my planet, they just want to live their lives in peace and find no meaning in trying to take over the earth," Orah said. "The rest of the demons are just power-hungry freaks who think they should be ruling earth and the humans worshipping at their feet."
Luis didn't say anything as he just kept his gaze at the demon.
'No one would ever believe this guy was a demon even if he told them.' Luis thought.
"I'm surprised," Orah said.
"Surprised with what?" Luis asked, thinking he might have read his mind.
"With the way the Angel Council is handling things now, sending a young Angel like you to do this type of job," Orah said.
"Actually I wasn't sent by the Angel Council," Luis said.
"Huh?"
Their conversation was interrupted by the sound of Michael's teleporters as the CEO had appeared in front of the students.
"Alright everyone, time for training session two," Michael said, clapping his hands.
There were moans and grumbling as the students reluctantly got up from the floor.

It was already nighttime at Asaka again, which meant that the search which was supposed to be carried out that day had already been concluded with the guards finding nothing at all.
Jude had put on his hood once again and had stealthily made his way to the forest.
The kingdom was really quiet as the king had set up a curfew and that meant there were guards moving around with torches to make sure nobody violates the king's order.
Maneuvering the guards was no problem for Jude as he simply waited for them to pass before silently making his way to the market and then going around the guard there to enter the forest from the other side.
There was little moonlight today unlike yesterday and Michael made sure to look at the hole but nothing was yet happening.
He continued his walk to where the elf twins were staying to see that they had covered the entrance of their new home with twines and leaves that looked like something growing on its own.
Tauriel was the first to spot him as she had brought out her head to check who was coming.
She quickly rushed to him and embraced him before thinking of anything else.
"I don't even get that much hugs from you Tauriel," Tuchel said.

"What happened?" Tauriel asked.
"We should probably go inside before I start answering any questions," Jude said.
The lamp provided good lighting in the room as the three of them sat on the mats. Jude went into details about how the guards had come and how they had inquired about them.
Jude had simply told them that they had gone back to Unelo, two days ago and there was no way they could prove him wrong because after searching the house they couldn't find anything.
"You may have succeeded in keeping us safe but your kingdom is still in danger," Tuchel said.
"I know, I sent a letter to a friend of mine at the Phoenix kingdom to see if there's any way he can help us," Jude said.
"And what makes you think this friend of yours can help?" Tuchel asked
"Because he's the prince of Phoenix," Jude said.
"Oh, but I still think getting help from Phoenix would be more effective if your king sends a message himself.
"I don't think he'll do that," Jude said, shaking his head.
"Why?" Tauriel asked.
"Because he's not on good terms with the king of Phoenix," Jude said.
"Then what makes you think your prince friend will be able to do anything?" Tuchel asked.
"We'll just have to wait till tomorrow and see what his feedback will be," Jude said, getting up.
"Are you leaving?" Tauriel asked.
"No, I want to show you guys something."
"What did you say you wanted to show us again?" Tauriel asked, looking into the hole.
"Just wait," Jude said.
"Yeah and we've been waiting for like ten minutes now," Tuchel said.
"I think it should start….. now."
Immediately after Jude said that the three blue crystals around the hole lit up and joined to create the triangular blue light he had seen yesterday.
"What the hell is that?" Tuchel said with widened eyes.
"I don't know, that's why I brought you guys to see it or the reason I brought Tauriel to be specific," Jude said.
Tauriel had already bent down to get a closer look, the triangular blue light had covered the hole with swirls of blue light swirling in the middle.
Tauriel kept looking at the beautiful mix of blue and white and was about to put her hands into it when everything suddenly vanished.
