BXBX NOVEL Chapter 365 How Many Abilities?
Chloe and Ace were currently sparring at their discovered training spot as Tania watched from the side.
It looked like she was watching their fight but in actual sense, she wasn't.
She was just staring off into the distance with a particular thought going through her mind.
Chloe had decided that they had a no ability and no weapon spar and Ace had agreed without knowing what he was signing up for.
He sent a kick toward Chloe's face now but she had quickly grabbed his leg before slamming him down to the ground.
"Without that wind thrust, you really don't have power in your kick," Chloe said standing over him.
"That's why I have the ability." Ace said slowly sitting up on the floor.
"Your ability is only a gift, you should learn how to fight properly without them." She said,
"Well, I'm in the elemental class, not the martial arts class." Ace said.
"Then maybe you should consider joining the martial arts class," Chloe said before turning her gaze to Tania.
"You're up Tania." She said but there was no response from Tania.
"Tania!!" She called again, this time raising her voice to snap her out of her daze.
"What?" Tania asked as soon as she snapped out of her daze.
"What is going on with you?" Chloe asked, moving closer to her.
"What? I'm okay." Tania said.
"No, you're not, you've been acting strange since last night," Chloe said.
"I'm still worried about what happened last night," Tania said after letting out a deep sigh.
"About what happened to Luis?"
"Yeah."
"You shouldn't be, Luis can clearly handle himself, he's clearly a better fighter than Ace," Chloe said, turning her gaze to Ace who was getting up from the floor now.
"I won't argue with that." Ace said.
"And I'm pretty sure their academy is going to figure out who is behind this very soon," Chloe added.
"I hope they do," Tania said.
There was a little moment of silence as Chloe stared at her for a little while before deciding to ask her the question that she had in mind.
"Are you sure that's the only thing that's bothering you?" She asked.
"Yeah, what else should be bothering me?" Tania said.
"I mean you started acting like this since yesterday evening, even before we went to the cafeteria and Luis got attacked," Chloe said.
'Was it that noticeable?' She thought, biting her lower lip.
"Is there something you're not telling me?" Chloe asked.
"Okay, Todd took me to the museum yesterday, the highest floor and I thought he just wanted to show me the nice view, he gave me a necklace which was really nice….."
"He gave you a necklace?"
"Yeah, and when I asked him to help me put it on, something bad happened."
"What happened?" Chloe asked but there was no response from Tania.
"What happened, Tania?" She asked again, giving her roommate a mean look.
Tania didn't reply as she bit her lips already regretting why she told her that now.

"How nice of you to show up when everything is over Lieutenant," Nicole said as he walked toward the barrack with Lieutenant Iris.
"I've already told you, assistant, whatever's going on with your student is none of our problems." Lieutenant Iris said.
"And why is that so?" Nicole asked.
"Because he is from your academy and you have to take the responsibility of figuring this out yourself, we will only help you in punishing the culprit when you find whoever it is." The Lieutenant said.
"Of course the punishers, but why would I bring the person to you when we can clearly punish him or her ourselves," Nicole said. "You think we're capable of catching whomever this is ourselves but you don't think we're capable of punishing the person to ourselves."
"You're right in some sense, assistant but if you choose to punish the culprit yourselves, I don't have any problem with that but you should know that we have a strict punishment system that turns glorified sinners into outright righteous people." The Lieutenant said.
"Oh, really?"
"Yeah." The Lieutenant said.
"I think this conversation is over," Nicole said as she suddenly stopped walking.
"Okay assistant but before you start heading back to your office meant for assistants, you should know something." Lieutenant Iris said.
"What?" Nicole asked.
"I don't like the way your student is getting involved in fights in public, if he gets into any more fights in public before you figure out who's this, I'm going to have to isolate him." The Lieutenant said.
"Isolate him? You know that won't help anybody, we need him out here if we're going to find out who's behind this." Nicole said.
"That's what I'm saying, if he gets into one more fight in public and you still don't find the culprit, I am going to isolate him until the tournament is over." Lieutenant Iris before turning and continuing her walk to the barracks as Nicole stared at her with a disgusted look on her face.

Luis was in serious trouble now as he looked at Pearl and Ciara who were still waiting for answers to his question.
The fight against the twins and everything that had happened after Pearl, Nova, Nicole, and Tammy arrived had made him forget that he had gotten a deep stab on his back earlier and now Ciara was demanding an answer to how it healed so fast and so was Pearl after Ciara told her what had happened.
"This isn't good," Nova said as she was standing at the side with Tammy.
"Wait do you know…."
"That he's an Angel, yeah he told me too," Nova said.
"Why?" Tammy asked.
"It's a little complicated," Nova said.
"Luis," Ciara called.
"Yeah," Luis replied, forcing a smile on his face.
"How did that wound on your back close up like nothing ever pierced deep into there, even the one on before that one is gone as if nothing ever hit there?" Ciara asked.
"Answer her question, Luis," Pearl said.
'A little help here Lena.' Luis said.
'This one is really tough to get out of given the fact that he saw when you got stabbed by that earth blade.' Lena said.
'Hello, Luis.'
'What?' Luis said subconsciously as he was quite surprised to hear another voice in his head.
Lena had quickly gone mute as soon as she heard that voice.
'Who are you?' The Angel asked.
'It's Nova.'
'How are you in my head?' Luis asked.
'Telepathy, it's a skill you'll get one day.' Nova said. 'See the only way to get out of your current problem is to tell them that you have a healing ability.'
'Healing ability?'
'Yeah, that's the only thing they'll believe besides you being an Angel.' Nova said.
"Luis," Pearl called with a grumbling voice.
"I have a healing ability." The Angel said abruptly. "That's why my wounds heal fast."
"You have an ability?" Ciara said with a stunned look on her face.
"How many abilities do you have, Luis?" Pearl asked, staring at Luis in disbelief.
