Luis wasn't finding it easy with the four demons he was facing but this quest had given him the drive he needed to get rid of them as quickly as possible.
He had quickly rushed to the fight between Michael and Grog and had saved Michael from getting hit by a deadly fireball, but things weren't exactly going his way now because he never expected a demon to be immune to fire.
With Michael down and him on his last legs, he had pulled out his big gun which also had a huge drawback on him.
"How did you get that?" Grog asked, his eyes fixed on the sword.
"I wouldn't be worried about that if I were you," Luis said.
"Give me that sword if you value your life." Grog said.
"Why would I give it to you when I know you'll just kill me afterward?" Luis said. "Why don't you blast me with a fireball and take it?"
"You ask for what you cannot take, goodbye Angel." Grog said as two fireballs began to form in his hands.
'I can't believe that worked.'
"Luis! Get out of there!" Michael screamed.
He tried to pick up his sword but he couldn't get a good grip on it.
"No!" Michael screamed as the fireball came flying towards Luis who had the sword held out to block both fireballs.
Grog's face quickly went from pleasurable to confused as he watched both of his fireballs get absorbed by the sword which was now pulsating, the energy coming off from it now was so powerful that Luis was struggling to keep his grip on the sword.
"You are done." Luis groaned as he pointed the sword at him.
Two fireballs which were almost covering the whole area shot out from the sword and went flying towards Grog, the impact from the blast was so great that it sent Luis flying backward.
The fire didn't just engulf the growing demon but kept pushing him through the trees as half of the jungle was on fire now.
"Are you okay?" Michael asked as he came staggering towards Luis.
"Where are you going?" Michael asked.
"To kill him."
"But isn't he dead?"
"No." Luis shook his head as he continued to walk ahead. "He's immune to fire."
The reason why Luis was so sure that the growing demon wasn't dead was that his system hadn't notified him of that and he was going to make sure the demon was dead before he got back to full strength again.
The fire wouldn't do any damage to his body but the impact from the blast and the many trees he had crashed into was going to pack a punch on his body.
Luis activated his aura vision and immediately spotted the growing demon crawling on the floor.
He quickly walked to the side to see that one of his legs had been disfigured.
"You fight an already lost battle." Grog said on seeing Luis. "Do you really think you can defeat Lucifer the way you are? Look at how you were struggling against a demon in the low rank."
Before Grog could say more his head was already rolling on the floor.
"Who told you I was going to fight him now?" He mumbled.
"Luis."
Michael had caught up to him in time to see him take off Grog's head.

'What?' Luis had to blink his eyes twice to make sure he was seeing the right words.
Everything became a reality to him as the pains immediately kicked in causing his body to immediately slump back but Michael was fast enough to reach him before he hit the ground.
"What's wrong?"
Luis couldn't say anything as he gritted his teeth, he felt like screaming away all the pain he was feeling now but he knew that wouldn't do them any good in a place like this.
Michael thought of what to do and why something like this was happening but nothing was coming to him, the very calm Michael wasn't looking so calm here.
The trouble didn't stop there as Luis who fortunately for them still had his aura vision active spotted about two dozen demons heading their way.
"Michael." He struggled to say as he clutched onto the CEO's arm. "I can't move but we have to get out of here."
"What's the problem?"
"Demons, more demons are coming." Luis groaned.
Michael now understood the seriousness of the matter as he picked up Luis and with the help of his boots was able to get far away before the demons got near.

Inside the castle in one of the special rooms, a young demon could be seen watching something on a screen but he wasn't just watching any show, what the demon was watching was the reply to the fight between Luis and Michael Vs Grog and his team and he was watching it with great interest.
"That was some really cool and dangerous skill!" The demon said on watching the part Luis used the demonic sword against Grog.
After that part, he turned off the screen.
"I never thought an Angel would appear right here on our planet." The demon said, getting up on his feet as he headed for the door.
"Where are you going master?"
He turned to see his medium-sized robotic spider behind him.
"You should shrink yourself Kobo, we are going to find the young Angel."
"What are you talking about, your father would never allow you to go out."
"I know he won't, which is why I won't ask." The demon said, already walking out of the door.
"But master." The spider said.
Seeing that there was no need to talk, the spider shrunk down to the size of a normal spider and quickly followed after its master.

Michael had managed to leave the jungle without being seen by the demons and they were once again back in the desert.
He placed Luis on the floor as he was constantly twitching.
Now that his mind was clear he knew what was happening to Luis.
'When the books said evolution was a painful process I never expected it to be this painful.' He thought looking at a twitching Luis.
'This has to be his evolution into a true Angel, he doesn't really have all the traits.' Michael thought using their last fight as a reference.
Luis could feel his body coming back to him as the pain was slowly going away.
