Chapter 351 Golden Fortification

Luis returned to his dorm room to find Ace on his bed staring at the upper part of his bunk while Dylan was back on his bed now.

"I was beginning to wonder when you were going to return." Ace said.

Luis didn't reply to him as he walked to his bed to find out that the book he dropped there was still there.

"Where did you go? I returned here almost an hour ago and you weren't here." Ace said.

"Uhh….. I went to have a little chat with Nova." Luis said.

"You did what?" Ace said quickly sitting up on his bed.

"It's okay, she didn't do anything to me," Luis said sitting on his bed.

"I can see that but she could have and then I would never get to see you again." Ace said.

"Yeah but I guess she never had any of that in mind," Luis said.

"Huh?"

"She just wanted to talk about my father and how I became an Angel," Luis said.

"Really? Why would she want to talk to you about that?" Ace asked.

"Turns out he knows my father who I just discovered is also an Angel," Luis said.

"Weren't you supposed to use your past tense since he's dead now?" Ace asked.

"I don't think he is," Luis said, shaking his head.

"Huh?"

"Nova believes that my father is alive and still out there which is shocking because all my life I had never really believed that my parents were dead," Luis said.

"So now you're going to go round the world looking for your father." Ace said sarcastically.

"Well not this world and I can't just go around looking for him, I'm going to look for things that will help me find him first," Luis said.

"Okay, you guys talked about your father and other stuff but she's still going to capture you, isn't she?" Ace asked.

"No," Luis said, shaking his head. "She taught me how to suppress my aura."

"I don't get it." Ace said with a confused expression on his face.

"Suppressing my aura will help keep me off their radar so that she can return and tell them that I died or something," Luis said.

"Oh, so she'll be leaving very soon then." Ace said.

"Yeah, just after the tournament," Luis said, grabbing the book beside him as he began to try and open it again.

"Yeah, I forgot to ask you, why is that book so hard to open? I've tried everything to open it but….."

"I don't know," Luis said, trying to pull the book open. "This golden strap is somehow keeping it shut."

"How is that strap keeping it shut, it only runs from the cover to the back, it doesn't even cover the page part?" Ace asked.

"The strap has some kind of golden aura, I think that's what's keeping the book shut," Luis said.

"Golden aura?"

"Yeah," Luis said.

"But can you open it?" Ace asked.

"I don't know but I'm trying to," Luis said, still trying to pull the book open.

"Okay." Ace said slowly getting up from his bed while checking his watch. "I have to go now."

"Where are you going?" Luis asked.

"The cafeteria." Ace said.

"This early?"

"Yeah, I have a date with Chloe." Ace said with a cheeky smile.

"Wait…Chloe, Tania's friend?" Luis said as he had stopped trying to open the book now.

"Yeah, that one." Ace said.

"You asked her out?"

"Yeah, and she said yes." Ace said. "My hands had to pay a little price for it but that's nothing."

"Okay, good luck with your date then," Luis said.

"I'll need that because I don't want my hands to get frozen again." Ace said heading towards the door.

"Huh?"

"Nothing." Ace said before leaving through the door and shutting it.

With him gone now, the room was quiet again as the Angel could once again concentrate and find a way to open the book.

'Here's a little tip, why don't you try absorbing the aura and transferring it to something else?' Lena suggested.

'Absorb the aura? Lena you know I tried that with the shadow enchantment and nothing happened.' Luis replied.

'But this isn't the shadow enchantment.' Lena said.

'Yeah but it's similar in some way.' Luis replied.

'But it isn't it, all I'm saying is that there's no harm in trying.' Lena said.

"Okay," Luis muttered as he dropped the book on his thigh and slowly placed his hands on the strapping.

[ Power drain activated ]

With his aura vision, he could see the golden aura slowly moving into his body, he didn't think it would work but it was.

The aura wasn't much so it only took a few seconds to transfer all of them to his body.

He expected some kind of system contamination message from his system or a confirmation for absorbing a form of energy but none of that came.

'I told you it was going to work.' Lena said.

"Yeah," Luis muttered as he slowly opened the book and this time, there was no resistance.

'I would advise you to head to the cafeteria first before going through that book.'

'Why? You know I don't get hungry unless I do something to drain my energy'

'You told Tania you would see her there tonight, have you forgotten?'

'Oh, yeah.' Luis replied. 'But I don't have to go, do I?'

'Of course, you have to, when you tell someone you'll do something, you do it.' Lena said.

"Fine, I'm going." The Angel said as he closed the book, dropped it on his bed, and stood up to leave.

He stopped in front of Dylan's bed and looked at him for a while as he was beginning to feel sorry for him now.

'You should talk to him then because his problem is that he is finding it hard to forgive himself because you haven't told him that you've forgiven him.' Lena said.

Luis didn't reply to her as he turned his gaze away from him and made his way toward the door.

It didn't take him long to arrive at the cafeteria as he stood at the entrance now trying to find Tania with his eyes among the numerous students there.

It didn't take long before Ace had spotted him and was waving at him now.

He was sitting at the same table as Tania and Chloe and it looked like they reserved a seat for him.

"There they are." He muttered as he began to make his way to them.

He had only taken a few steps towards the table when someone suddenly rushed out from nowhere using himself as a human spear to push him until both of them had crashed into one of the counters by the side, completely bringing the whole thing down.

There was a series of loud gasps in the hall as everyone suddenly turned their attention to the area.

"Luis." Tania gasped.

"What just happened?" Ace said with a confused expression on his face.

The two were completely covered by the rubbles from the counter and for a while, there was no movement there until one of them came flying out and crashed on one of the tables in the area bringing the whole thing down and causing another series of loud gasps in the hall.

"Okay, I am loving this night." A student said.

Luis walked out of the rubble unharmed and there was a little golden color in his eyes as he walked out but it didn't take long before the color disappeared and his eyes returned to normal.

'I feel….. different.'
