When Luis saw the demon boss at once, he thought he wouldn't be facing an Angel with wings but he had just found out that it only needed a little push to unleash those wings he thought he wasn't going to see today.
The few times he had faced a demon boss with wings it had ended on a not-so-good note for him.
"It's a good thing these wings don't have a time out until I deactivate them myself," Luis said as he quickly formed a metallic shield with his metal ability and equipped the silver Katana blade.
He would have loved to use his flaming sword but his fire points had gone down after attacking the demon boss with a barrage of fireballs and he couldn't risk using them all in a situation like this.
The demon boss was the first to attack as it sent two large fireballs heading toward the Angel.
Luis expected the fireballs to come at him from different directions so that he could block one and avoid one but to his greatest surprise, both fireballs had merged just before they could get to him.
He was able to block the fireball with his shield but the impact had knocked him back in the process and his shield had gotten shattered.
'If your wing gets hit, you're done.' Lena said.
"I know," Luis said as he zoomed close to the demon boss and tried to slash it with his Katana blade but the demon boss had caught the blade and yanked him backward with it.
Luis was sent tumbling in the air and had almost hit the ground before he had caught his balance.
He grabbed his Katana blade from the floor and flew up to face the demon boss again.
Ace felt so useless watching Luis face the demon boss in the air.
"If only I had chosen my wind ability I could at least provide a little help to him." He said with his gaze fixed on the fight going on in the air.
Luis didn't want to get close to the demon boss now as he shot multiple blades at it but it turns out the demon was more mobile with its wings than it was with its feet.
After avoiding a couple of the blades shot at it by Luis, the demon boss sent another set of large fireballs heading toward the Angel.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Doesn't this thing run out of fire points?" Luis complained as he flew higher to avoid both fireballs from hitting him.
The demon boss was looking around now trying to find Luis who had flown into the clouds but it didn't take long before it found him as the Angel descended on it from above with a powerful strike from his flaming sword on its wings.
The demon boss let out a roar as it came crashing to the ground.
Ace saw this as his chance to do something as he formed a bubble in his hands, quickly stretched it form a long water blade, and sent it flying towards the demon boss.
The demon boss couldn't do anything about the water blade slash while it was falling as the attack hit and sent it tumbling to the floor.
"That last hit is mine," Luis said as he quickly rushed toward the demon boss, increased his flaming sword to the last intensity, and stabbed directly through the demon boss' chest to end it on the spot.
The demon boss let out a loud groan before its body began to slowly disintegrate until it was gone.
"Thanks, Ace," Luis said in between his heavy breathing as he turned to face Ace.
"You were the one that did all the work." Ace said, walking closer to him.
'He's right about that.' Lena said.
[ +600 EXP received ]
'Awesome.'
Ace kept his gaze on Luis' black wings as he walked closer to him and Luis, knowing what he was about to do, didn't deactivate his flight.
"I didn't expect them to be this soft." Ace said after placing his hand on one of the wings.
"Yeah, sometimes looks can be deceiving," Luis said.
[ Would you like to return to the main menu? ]
[ Yes/No ]
Ace slowly turned his gaze to Luis after both of them had gotten that message and it was very clear which option they were going to click.
The two found themselves in the white space as soon as they had clicked yes and now it was up to them if they wanted to take on another round of demons and demon boss or take a break.
"I think that's enough demon fighting for today." Ace said, turning his gaze to Luis.
[ 4610/4770 EXP ]
'Just a few exps now and I'll level up.' Luis said in his mind.
'Yeah but you should take a break, you just defeated a demon boss.' Lena said.
'You know that didn't use up any of my energy.'
'I know because it's a game but your friend is really eager to leave.' Lena said.
"Luis." Ace called after watching him stand there without saying anything for a while.
"Yeah, right we should take a break," Luis said.
"Okay." Ace said with a weird look on his face.
"That was really fun," Luis said, pulling out the VR headset from his face.
"It wouldn't have been so fun if we had both gotten vaporized by that demon boss." Ace said sitting up on his bed.
He checked his watch to see that it was already evening and time for dinner.
"It's already time for dinner." Ace said quickly getting up from his bed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Okay," Luis said, still lying down on his bed.
"I know you don't need to eat to survive but do you mind coming with me?" Ace asked.
Luis didn't say anything as his eyes darted towards Dylan who was still silently lying down on his bed.
"If you want I could force him to follow us." Ace said.
"No, don't do that," Luis said, getting up from his bed. "I'm just wondering if he has eaten anything recently?"
"He didn't eat anything last night but I did see him in the cafeteria this morning." Ace said.
"Okay, I think I'll get him something in the cafeteria," Luis said, walking closer to Ace who was standing close to the door.
"Alright, let's go then." Ace said, opening the door.
The two slowly walked out of their dormitory area while talking about the fight they had just finished and just as they had stepped foot out of their dormitory area one of the trails in front of Luis began to turn red.
Luis stopped moving as he watched the red aura move through the green aura until it had completely turned red.
"Luis," Ace called, finding it strange that he had just stopped walking like that. "What's wrong?"
"Oh no." The Angel muttered and before Ace could find out what was going on, he had already run off in the direction of that particular aura.
