Chapter 24 - Fire Power

Luis was glad that he wouldn't have to go into the forest because ten demons were now heading his way, he wasn't afraid because with his aura vision he could tell that they were all experimented demons even though they hadn't come into sight yet.

"It's time for demon grinding," Luis said.

He stretched his hands and then pulled out his sword from its sheath.

The demons started appearing from behind the trees and continued moving towards Luis.

The first demon, left its brothers and quickly ran towards Luis, Luis remained still while tightening his grip on his sword, immediately the demon got within striking distance he swung his sword, and down came the demon's head.

The other demons seeing how their mate was easily defeated started to screech and instead of attacking Luis directly started to circle him until they had him where they wanted him.

Luis was now surrounded by nine demons. Two demons quickly jumped towards Luis, they were doing this because they thought he wouldn't be able to deal with two at once, but they had underestimated their opponent here as Luis easily dealt with both of them, slashing one into two halves and taking the others to head off.

'Man this is easy.' Luis rejoiced in his mind.

He had lost his guard now and didn't realize the fireball that was heading for him now. The fireball had gotten close when Luis quickly placed his sword in front of him to block the fire.

[ Fire element successfully blocked ]

[ +1 fire ability point ]

This was the answer Luis had been looking for, a demon had thrown a fireball at him and when he successfully blocked it, he was granted one fire ability point.

Luis was a little distracted by the good news on his screen that he didn't realize a second fireball heading for him had hit him dead on the chest, sending him a few meters back.

[ -2 HP ]

[ 9/11 HP ]

'Well looks like their fireballs aren't that strong." Luis thought after that single hit had taken only two exp, but still, he couldn't take a couple of hits more or else he would be done for.

Luis didn't even get time to catch his breath as more fireballs kept coming his way, but now that he was concentrating he was able to hit away from the balls with his sword.

[ +1 fire ability point ]

[ +1 fire ability point ]

...…

[ 10/10 fire ability points ]

[ Fire ability unlocked ]

[ Fire ability: Level 01 ]

[ Fire points: 50/50 ]

[ Fire skill: fireballs unlocked ]

[ Would you like to use it? ]

Luis screamed yes in his mind. The balls were still coming at him fast and he was starting to tire out.

He deflected the last two balls heading for him and immediately a red ball started to form on his palms he knew what this was and quickly pointed it at one of the demons.

The fireball that shot out from his palms was the same size as the ones the demons were attacking him with but when it had hit the demon on the head it had instantly destroyed its head and the demon was no longer standing, the head was surely the weak point of these experimented demons, Luis realized this after taking out the first one easily and wasted no time aiming for the head and taking out the remaining demons.

Luis let out a sigh of relief and sat down resting his back on a huge tree, he shouldn't have been this tired, but while shooting those fireballs it felt like his energy was leaving him whenever he released a fireball.

[ Fire points: 43/50 ]

Whenever he shot out a fireball his fire points would reduce by one, this meant that he could shoot out only fifty fireballs while fighting, but now that he was resting he could see that his fire points were being restored every five minutes.

Something had caught Luis' attention when he killed the fourth demon which was required for his level up into level five and when he had killed the remaining six demons to level up into level six.

[ 400 EXP Gained ]

[ You are now level 05 ]

[ 3 stat points granted ]

[ 2 level up stats granted ]

[ 500 EXP Gained ]

[ You are now level 06 ]

[ 2 level up stats gained ]

Luis looked at the screen and he had only one thought in his mind.

'This was totally worth it.'

Luis had a total of seven stat points now and he was going to place them in areas where he wanted to improve.

He decided to split the points equally and then he placed the remaining one in his strength. This is what his physical status looked like.

[ Physical status ]

[ Strength: 13 ]

[ Stamina: 9 ]

[ Agility: 7 ]

Luis was happy with what he had gotten now and he could feel his body getting stronger and different.

Luis wanted to check other things in his system but he was stopped by the growling which he was hearing deep inside the forest now. He activated his aura vision and was startled by what he was seeing now, about fifty demons were now heading his way.

With his new upgrade in strength and his fire ability, he would be able to take them all down easily but instead, he decided to get up and quickly left the forest area heading back home.

Luis didn't flee because of the mere number of the demons, the thing that startled him was because there was an aura that was stronger than that of the experimented demons, the aura wasn't as strong as Raph's but Luis didn't want to take any chances, he was confident that with his strength and speed he would be able to keep up with the demon but that would just mean that he would have to waste more time here, and he needed to get home before they found out that he wasn't in the house.

Luis quickly ran home and slowly made his way up the stairs, he slowly opened his door and was surprised to find someone sleeping on his bed.

'How does she even get in here?' Luis stood at the entrance looking clueless.
