"So the Demon of the abyss is the reason why demons, the reason why Lucifer exists," Luis said.
"Yeah, he is the originator and strongest source of dark magic," Nova said.
'Someone who's the strongest source of dark magic is bad news for Angels.' Lena said.
'Yeah.' Luis replied.
"But how did he do it?" Luis asked.
"Do what?" Nova asked.
"How did he create someone like Lucifer and other Angels?"
Nova was quiet for a while as she stared at the young Angel before slowly turning away from him.
"Lucifer used to be an Angel." She said.
"What?!!!"
That was a huge bombshell that she had just dropped on Luis there.
"You can't be serious," Luis said but as Nova turned and he saw the serious look on her face, he knew she had to be serious about this. "You're serious."
"He was the original leader of the fifth family, he was known to be calm, friendly, and kind but everything changed the day the supreme orb chose Zillah as the Angel Supreme.
"Lucifer suddenly changed, his attitude, everything about him changed, he wanted to be the Angel Supreme, he wanted to be the one to rule over other Angels, and he believed that he deserved it more than Zillah.
"He knew that the supreme orb was not going to choose him so he began to seek another way to get more power, more power than Zillah had so that he can force him under his control and finally become the Angel Supreme.
"In his quest for more power, he came across the Demon of the abyss, who granted him more power, a power that changed him, his aura, his abilities, everything that made him an Angel.
"He was stronger than ever but it still wasn't enough, he knew that and that was why he started gathering other Angels who had the same mindset as he.
"He turned them into Demons, Angels numbering up to one hundred were turned into Demons. He started a war in heaven with these Angels, it was a chaotic war but with the leadership of Zillah, we were able to defeat and kill most of them but Lucifer had fled with the other demons.
"We didn't know where he went until after some time we discovered that he was on earth and was slowly turning the world into a state of chaos….."

Luis was looking at Nova throughout her narration with mixed feelings of excitement and fright.
Listening to a story like that was quite exciting but the fact that it really happened was quite frightening.
"I thought Demons were the direct opposite of Angels and never had anything to do with them, I never knew Angels were somehow the origin of Demons," Luis said.
"Those demons can never be described as Angels again, they are the children of the demon of the abyss and that is what they shall remain until the day they will all be finally wiped out from the face of this world," Nova said clinching her fists.
Talking about the war in heaven really brought up bad memories for her, memories that made her angry and at the same time sad.
"Okay," Luis said with an awkward expression on his.
"Let's get out of here."
"Okay," Luis said as he turned and brought up his tab to click the main menu option.
While the two were in the game, Nicole had entered the house to find both Luis and Nova lying on the couch unconscious with the VR headsets on their face.
"He just survived a death battle and now he's playing a game with the same Angel that wants to capture him." She said looking at Luis with a shake of his head.
She walked past the two and headed to the kitchen where she poured herself some drink.
She walked to the table in the middle and dropped her glass of wine before bringing out her phone from her pocket and immediately entering her contacts app.
She browsed through her contact list until she had finally got to Michael's number.
Her hands lingered on top of the option as she was contemplating on whether to click it or not and just as she was able to click it, she heard ruffle sounds come from the sitting room indicating that both Luis and Nova were out of the game.
"That was fun right?" Luis said, smiling at Nova as he sat up on the couch.
"Yeah," Nova said casually.
That wasn't the voice of the excited Nova he heard during most of their time in the game.
"I'm sure you two had quite a blast in there."
Both of the Angels quickly turned in the direction of the voice to see Nicole standing there with a glass of wine in her hand.
'When did they even get this close to be playing a game together?'
"Oh, you're back," Luis said.
"Yeah, and it was a really big surprise to open the door and find two Angels lying unconscious on the couches," Nicole said, taking a sip from her wine.
Just then knocking sounds were heard coming from the door.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
"Do you mind getting that, Luis?" Nicole requested.
"Sure," Luis said as he got up from the couch and quickly made his way to the door.
He opened the door to find a student just as the same height as him standing there.
'I thought this was the teacher's apartment.' Max said, subconsciously.
"Umm…. hey, I'm looking for a boy named Luis, a student at Crockel academy," Max said, staring at Luis oblivious of who he was.
'They've found you.' Lena said.

George was sitting alone in one of the bars in the academy, having himself a drink.
He took a sip from his drink as he spotted Zach heading toward him after entering the bar.
"Hey, boss," Zach said, feigning a smile after stopping in front of him.
"Sit down Zach," George said with an expressionless look on his face.
"Okay, boss," Zach said as he slowly sat down on the seat opposite George.
George stared at the table for a while waiting for him to settle down well before shooting his gaze up at him.
"So what did you want to talk to me about?" He asked still keeping his face void of any expressions.
"It's about the person who is always coming in between our operations, the one that has more than one elemental ability," Zach said lowering his voice.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"What do you know?" George asked.
"I think I know who the person is," Zach said.
"You do?"
"Yeah, it's a third-year student, Pearl Reeves," Zach said.
"And how did you come to this conclusion?" George asked.
"The last time she attacked us, she used a mystic weapon that could attack and return attacks, and just yesterday, Dan saw her training with Tammy Phillips and they were with the same mystic weapon," Zach explained.
"And because of that, you think Pearl is the one who attacked you guys," George said.
"Yeah, the proof is there," Zach said.
"Well, you're wrong Zach?"
"Huh?"
"Tammy cannot be the person that attacked because she doesn't have multiple elemental abilities and I'm sure she just happens to have the same mystic weapon as the person who attacked you or she got her hands on it somehow," George said.
"How do you know that?" Zach asked.
"Because I know the person that attacked you, the person that has multiple elemental abilities," George said.
"Who?" Zach asked with his eyes peeled.
"Luis Miles."
"Luis Miles?" Zach uttered with a shocked and confused expression on his face.
