Chapter 407 Maybe The System Was Right
"The last person I saw summon a mystic weapon was a demon, a powerful demon with a powerful mystic weapon, a flaming sword greater than this one," Greg said with the sword still pointed at Luis. "Humans can't summon mystic weapons, who are you, Luis?"
"I knew you were going to find out very soon but I didn't expect you to find out this soon." The Angel said.
"What are you talking about?"
"I'm not a demon, I know that's what you're thinking now but I'm not one of them."
"He's right, dad."
Greg quickly turned back to see Tammy standing there.
"Tammy?"
"Luis isn't a demon." She said before she slowly walked to the Angel's side.
"Then what is he?"
Tammy didn't reply immediately and turned her gaze to Luis and stared at him for a while before she looked around to make sure that there was no one close by.
"He's the opposite of a demon, dad."
Greg didn't react immediately and just stared at the two with an expressionless look on his face.
"What are you talking about?" He said before turning his gaze to Tammy. "You don't mean, he's an…."
"Yes, dad, that's what he is."
"How can that be?" Greg said before turning his gaze back to Luis. "I thought there were no Angels on earth."

"So, their kingdom is in some kind of chaos which their king is the source of," Michael said.
He was standing in front of Layla who was sitting on the bed with his arms crossed.
"Yeah, that is the summary of the whole thing, he seemed to have these strange powers which Jude said he wasn't supposed to have but I don't know," Layla said.
"So, what are you guys planning to do?" The CEO asked.
"There's really nothing we can do for now at least but Jude wants to bring his parents and his girlfriend through the portal to make sure they're safe." She said before bringing up her tablet which was lying on the bed. "I'm just waiting for the sun to set over there and it is taking forever for that to happen but I guess this is the reason why the portal opens in the morning in this world."
"Are you sure that's a good idea? You know they'll arrive at Eukerion and will need someone to guide them and you guys are here."
"Don't worry, I'll use the drone to guide them." The Lieutenant said.
"Okay, I hope it all goes as planned." He said before turning to face the window. "See you later, I have to go find someone now." He added before he quickly got covered by white light and vanished.

The door was pushed open for the Angel to enter the room but this time there was no one in the room, even Dylan was gone.
"I guess it's okay now that Mason has been taken care of." He muttered before he made his way to his bed and sat down there.

'Five days to kill George.' He said subconsciously. 'He also wants to kill me so it should only be fair that I want to return the favor.'
'Maybe but I wouldn't like it if you started thinking like that.' Lena said.

'Still have a large amount of exp to gather to get that level up.' He thought. 'A massacre of demons will do the trick but that's unlikely to happen with all these powerful people here. I wish there was a free space where I could train just like at Crockel academy.'
'It's just for a week. If you really want to improve so fast, then you should start making the little things count.'
'What do you mean?'
'Greg and Tania know that you're an Angel now, don't you think it's time to add them to your list of allies, you have a quest to gather ten human allies have you forgotten?'
'I know, I'll do that soon.' The Angel replied before he slowly lay down on his bed. 'The smaller events will end tomorrow and the main deal will begin on Wednesday.'
'Yeah.'
He slowly closed his eyes and activated his aura vision to see the little amount of golden aura that had entered his system flowing throughout his body without mixing with his orange aura.
'There are a lot of things that I don't know yet, there are levels that I still have to get to, and I still have a long way to go.'
'Yeah.'
He stared at the ceiling for a while and let out a sigh before his VR headset appeared in his hand.
'If there's not a space for me to train secretly then I'll just do it in the game.'
He was about to put on the headsets when the door was pushed open for Ace to enter the room looking like someone who had just seen a ghost.
"Hey, you're here." He said as soon as he spotted Luis lying on his bed.
"I thought I told you to stay inside with Dylan," Luis said before sitting up on his bed.
"Yeah, but I wanted to meet Chloe's father." He said. "I'm sure we would have been able to handle ourselves if anything had happened but I'm glad nothing happened."
"What happened to you?" The Angel asked.
His roommate's breathing seemed a little paced and muffled so he had to ask.
"Well, it turns out meeting Chloe's father wasn't a good idea, just getting that close to the man caused me to almost freeze to death, and the few times he looked at him, I almost got five heart attacks at the same time, I was lucky to make it out of there alive."
"Really? All those things when he didn't even touch you." Luis said.
"Yeah."
"I think you were just overreacting."
"I wasn't," Ace said, shaking his head. "You'll feel it too when you get close to him."
"No, I won't." The Angel said. "Let's forget about that for now, you said you wanted to tell me something when we were at the stadium, that was after you returned with Dylan."
"Yeah," Ace said with a nod as a serious expression suddenly appeared on his face.
"Okay, what was it?"
"George isn't going to make his move until the last day of the tournament, that is the day the final battle will take place, he wants to take care of you while everyone is focused on the fight," Ace explained. "He plans to kill you without a trace and then burn your body so that you will be termed missing by the school and they will keep searching for you without knowing that he has sent you to your grave.'
'The way this guy explains his plans as if he's confident that everything's going to go his way.' Lena said.
"And what part does Dylan have to play in this?" He asked.
"The same part he played the last time they ambushed, they just want him to lure you out of the stadium so that they can make their move," Ace said.
"They know that I found out that Dylan was part of their plan the last time and now they want to use him again."
"Yeah, that's stupid," Ace said.
'His grudge against me has grown to the extent that he wants to eliminate me by all means possible, he doesn't want me to return to Crockel academy at the end of the tournament.'

'Maybe the system wasn't wrong in giving me this quest.'
"What are you going to do, Luis? I'll help you in any way I can."
The Angel didn't reply immediately and just stared at him for a while before slowly bringing his gaze down.
"What's wrong?" Ace asked.
"George wants to kill me right? We both know that he would do it without a second thought." The Angel raised his gaze to him to say. "The other one almost succeeded last time, if I wasn't an Angel, I would be dead by now."
"Yeah," Ace said.
"So, I have a question." He said.
"Okay."
"Is it wrong if I want to return the favor and then end up returning the favor?" He asked.
"By returning the favor, you mean killing him?" Ace said with an awkward expression on his face.
Dave stared at him intently for a while before saying, "Yeah."
