Chapter 168 Forget About The Coins
That stab down the thigh was quite a critical and painful hit for Luis and it was seriously bleeding.
[ 40/120 HP ]
[ -70 Energy ]
[ Healing process has begun ]
Luis didn't even bother to go check on Rodney who was still groaning on the floor. He slowly got up from the floor and staggered out of the room with Ace and Dylan quickly going after him.
"Who the hell was that kid?" A boy asked as he looked down on Rodney who still wasn't getting up from the floor.
"I have no idea." That was the answer he got from most of the people there.
"He was only level three and still he managed to do this to a level six student."
Luis kept staggering without responding to Ace and Dylan's calls, he kept limping until he had entered a little bush by the side of the road where nobody could see him.
He then staggered to a tree there and slowly sat down with his back resting on its stem.
Although the system had said that the healing process had begun, his wound was still bleeding up till the point when he sat down near the tree.
"Luis." Ace called immediately after he entered the area and that's when he spotted Luis under the tree.
He quickly rushed to Luis' side to see how deep the wound was, that was indeed a critical stab.
"We could have gone to the school clinic instead." Ace said.
"Yeah," Dylan said from behind Ace.
"And start explaining how this happened, no thank you," Luis said. "You guys have nothing to worry about, I'm okay."
Ace was about to say something to counter that but just before he could his very proof began to disappear before his eyes.
Ace and Dylan were in awe as they watched the wound disappear, no human would be able to heal that fast, it was phenomenal.
"See, I told you guys I was okay," Luis said as he tried to close the year on his uniform. "This was my last uniform."
"You can have my other pair." Ace said.

'So much for a tough guy, he only gave me twenty exp.'
Fighting the demons in the VR headset game, demon battle had helped him increase his exp a little and when he was called up to fight Rodney, he was expecting to give it a little boost.
But it turns out the guy wasn't that strong of a person for his system to give him a reasonable amount of exp or even give him a quest.
He still had two unused stat points from his last level up and two skill points.
He could have used the skill point to unlock the unmerited favor skill from his Demi-Angel skills but he didn't find the skill that useful preferred going for the last two skills, Telepathy, and possession which would cost more skill points.
'If only there were easier ways to get skill points.' He thought.
The only way he ever got skill points was by leveling up or completing a quest and the problem was that both of those things appeared to be very far from as long as he was in this academy.
Leveling up seemed impossible now because he didn't have demons or quests to do to get more exps in this environment.
"We should get going now, Luis." Ace said after returning with Dylan.
The two had gone to check if anyone was following them from the fight show, they didn't enter the place as Luis told them, they just checked around to make sure everywhere was clear.
"Ok," Luis said as he slowly got up from the floor.
His gaze turned to the tree before he could take a step forward as an idea popped into his head.
When he was just a Demi-Angel, his power drain just took life force from the things he drained and gave him extra energy and a little HP but since becoming an Angel, the skill now showed him how much life force he took and gave him stat points according to the strength of the organism he was taking the life force from.
He slowly placed his hands on the tree's stem and activated the skill the way he usually did.
[ 30% of tree's life force consumed ]
[ +10 Energy ]
[ +20 HP ]
[ 70/120 HP ]
[ 40/100 Energy ]
The spoils of the life force consumption were shared between his energy and HP but it seemed like his system focused on putting more of it on the HP where it was needed more but there was no stat point.
, Luis." Dylan called.
Luis didn't reply as he removed his hand from the tree's stem and started to walk toward the two.
The three roommates had made it out of the area and had entered the school gate. They were currently heading to their dorm room when Luis decided to ask a question that he had in mind from the first time he stepped his foot inside the club disguised as a venue for a fighting event.
"How did you two find out about that place?" He asked.
"Huh?" Dylan said.
"It was very clear we were the only first-year students there," Luis said.
"I found a flyer about it when I was sent by our elemental class instructor to bring something from his office."
"Miss Nicole's no longer your instructor?" Dylan said with a surprised tone.
"Yeah, I was bummed she had to get replaced because she had a lot of other things to do."
"So you found it in his office," Luis said.
"No, I found it outside just in front of the classroom before I even found his office." Ace said.
"Which classroom?" Luis asked.
"The second-year class B."
"Second-year class B," Luis repeated.
Now everything made sense to him, what they had just gone to was no fighting event, rather it was more like a fighting club which he would guess George was the one behind.
"You are right, we were the only first-year students there." Ace said after giving a thought to Luis' earlier words and trying to remember the face of most of the people there with no luck.
"What does that mean?" Dylan asked.
"That was no fighting event, if it were, I was sure there had to be at least one teacher there," Luis said.
"It was organized by a student or group of students." Ace said. "They want to use it as a medium for making money."
"How exactly do they plan to do that? We didn't even pay gate fees." Dylan said.
"From the betting booth and don't tell me you didn't see those drinks at the counter."
"Betting booth," Dylan said as he clutched onto his pockets.
He had completely forgotten about his two silver coins which he used to bet on Luis and just like he predicted Luis had won the fight.
"What's the matter?" Luis asked.
"My coins," Dylan said.
"The ones you used to gamble?" Ace said.
"Yes and I won but I forgot to take my reward," Dylan said.
"So you want to go back and take it now," Luis said.
"Yes," Dylan said but as he was about to take a step, Luis grabbed him by his shirt and pulled him back.
"Forget about the coins Dylan, it's too dangerous for you to go back there alone," Luis said as he slowly let go of his shirt.
"Too dangerous men." Ace said with a nod. "Forget about it."
Ace and Luis continued walking while Dylan stood there for a while before eventually shaking his head off to shake off some bad thoughts and then increasing his pace to catch up with his friends.
