Chapter 66 Walked Into A Trap
Today the three roommates had gotten ready for school together, Luis didn't want to rush out like he always did so that Ace would stop being suspicious of him and also because he didn't have any reason to leave earlier than usual today.
The trio headed to the cafeteria had breakfast together and were heading to class when Luis bumped into someone he didn't think he wanted to see this morning.
Ciara was heading out of class and she didn't seem to be concentrating on where she was and that was when she badged into Luis, unfortunately for her, she was the only one that fell.
"Sorry," Luis said, offering his hand to her.
Luis noticed that she had a bag under her eyes and happened to be staring at his hand unusually.
'Did I do this to her?' Luis thought, now feeling bad for what he had done last night.
"Don't show me those filthy hands." She slapped his hand off, got up, and continued in the same direction.
"Woah. What did you do to upset her?" Ace asked.
"I don't know." Luis shrugged.
"Whatever you are doing with her, just be careful before she shoves one of those arrows into your throat."
"Hey, I'm not doing anything with her,"
"I just said be careful." Ace said, walking into the classroom.
Class started as usual but Luis found himself looking at Ciara every now and often.
This didn't go unnoticed by some of his friends and Ciara's friends.
Ace bent towards Dylan and said. "I thought Luis said he wasn't doing anything with Miss Archer over there."
"Yeah, anything wrong?" Dylan asked.
"Well did you notice he's been staring at her since the lessons started?"
Ella on the other hand was wondering why Luis would suddenly develop an interest in her of all people.
'Sure her permed hair looks cool but that still doesn't explain anything.'
'Relax, I don't think Angels can develop feelings for humans.' Jasmine said.
'They can't?'
'Well except in some special cases but it is still forbidden by the law.'
'Law of what?'
'Angel council.'
"I think zero potential, green eyes over there likes you." Lilly leaned in closer to her friend to say.
"Who?" Ciara said, rubbing her eyes.
Everyone who had noticed Luis' eye movements this morning had similar thoughts about it.
But the real reason why Luis had been looking at Ciara was that he felt bad that he might have been the person who had deprived her of sleep last night and now she was suffering the consequences because of him.
With classes over for the day, everyone headed to their various combat classes.
On the way to the martial arts class, Luis seemed to be trailing behind the others.
'What if I had mistakenly killed her brother?' Luis thought.
Sure his body wouldn't be set ablaze like the books said because his system clearly stated that he was guilty of oppressing him but the question was how that would affect his sister or even his family.
'But they are the ones who go around molesting and taking money from those below, they are also not being fair.'
Luis had come up with his decision, punish the wrongdoers, they deserve it and the family should understand.
"What's wrong with him?" Silvia asked, looking back.
"I think the problem with his girlfriend is disturbing him." Ace said.
"She's not his girlfriend." Ella cut in.
Ace held his mouth, he had forgotten that Ella was with them when he began his rambling.
"How do you know who he's talking about?" Dylan asked.
Now Ella didn't have an answer for this question, if she told them he saw Luis staring at Ciara during class, that would make her appear weird and nosey.
"Don't ask me that question," Ella said and continued walking forward.
'You know that wasn't the best way to handle things.' Jasmine said. "Now you've got them thinking about another thing.
When they got to their combat class Monica and Henry were already there waiting for them.
"Hi, guys," Monica said, then she realized that someone was missing. "Where's green eyes?"
"You mean Luis," Dylan said.
"Yeah, Luis."
The door was opened and Luis walked into the room.
"I thought you guys always came together. Why is he coming alone?" Henry asked.
"Don't ask," Dylan said glancing towards Ella, he was just glad that Ace wasn't in the combat class for this period of time and had walked off to the elemental class on their way.
After some minutes of waiting Michael showed up, coming out from the tiny room that made the students wonder if there was a secret passage leading to the room or he just comes early and enters there.
"Alright everyone, we have to hurry up with the training. The week is almost coming to an end." Michael said.
"Does that mean the physical training is just for this week?" Henry asked.
"If you finish your own final training then it will be," Michael replied.
The training started with the running in which Luis later got one stat point in both Agility and stamina.
Then they moved on to the pulling of stumps across the mud.
Then the last training was something new and something Luis would call crazy.
They were asked to climb a very tall and sleek tree with oily hands.
"This is insane, what if one of us falls?" Luis complained.
"I just know you won't die."
The training came to an end with everyone doing well in every aspect including Dylan.
Immediately after getting home, Luis left for work, on getting to the library the person that was there was Rose.
'So they work by turns.'
There weren't many people in the library today so Luis was done before the sun had completely set.
"I just hope there aren't any interruptions today," Luis muttered as he walked out of the library.
Luis walked to one of the shops near the second-year dormitory.
While he was buying something on the counter when his target came inside the shop-bought some snacks and left without even looking at him.
'That's strange, he should have at least taken notice of me.'
Luis walked out of the shop to follow his target only to find him walking into the forest.
Without hesitation, he followed him from a distance.
'I feel like I'm walking into a trap.'
Luis had used the time to cover his face and he had also activated his aura vision.
His target walked to a random spot and stopped, Luis who had his aura vision active couldn't believe what he was seeing now.
A small single figure behind his target was holding a sword covered completely with a red aura, his legs and hands were also covered with a red aura, Luis had a good idea of who it was.
'Well, that's killing two birds with one stone.'
Before Luis could move any further he felt a stinging pain on his back.
[ Warning!!! ]

Luis quickly grabbing onto the dagger turned to see a smiling Zach about to stab him with his other dagger.
