Chapter 274 Nobody Saw Me
After listening to everything Michael had said, Luis wasn't really surprised and had only one thing to say.
"At least she understands." The Angel said getting up from his seat.
"Yeah but she's still going to come after you," Michael said.
"Yeah, you've already said that," Luis said, staring at the large locked bookshelf in the laboratory.
"She doesn't have a choice," Michael said. "The way she sounded after I explained everything to her, I knew at once that if it was up to her she would let it slide."
"But it isn't up to her is it?" Luis said, sticking his hands in his pocket.
"Listen, Luis, I'll help you take care of this but you just have to stay low and let me figure out a way," Michael said.
"There is no other way besides fighting her, you've said it yourself it isn't up to her," Luis said, walking towards the bookshelf.
"You can't fight her, the power gap between an ordinary Angel and a guardian Angel is really high," Michael said.
"And what is the power gap between her and you?" Luis asked, turning back to face him.
"I don't know but all I am telling you is to stay clear of her," Michael said.
"But that won't be possible if she won't stay clear of me," Luis said. "I know I am not strong enough to stand against her but I know a way to get stronger and if she comes trying to take me away I am going to try my best to defend myself."
"I never said you shouldn't defend yourself," Michael said. "Just don't go to her looking for a confrontation."
Luis didn't say anything as he walked back to his seat.
"I'm not stupid Michael." He said sitting back on the seat.
"I don't really know if there's a way around this but you have to try and hold your ground till I come up with something better," Michael said.
"Ok," Luis said with a nod. "Thanks for looking out for me."
"It's not a problem," Michael said.
"In as much as Nova's here trying to capture so that I can get punished, I would really love to see what heaven looks like," Luis said.
"Me too, but you don't have to go there for this reason," Michael said.
"Yeah," Luis replied.
"Nova said something about your world being the transition world, do you know what that means?" Michael asked.
"Transition world?" Luis said.
"Yeah."
"No, I don't know what it means," Luis said, shaking his head.

The sun had set once again at Asaka putting the curfew back online and sending the people of Asaka back into their homes.
This night curfew was really affecting a lot of people who made more profit from their products during the night and Felix Blackstone was one of those people.
Jude had stayed in his room throughout the day trying to figure out the way to go about his current problems.
He had to go to this other world and find his sister but he couldn't just leave his parents here when the elves were going to attack the kingdom in the next two days.
He still hadn't gotten any response from the message he had sent out to his friend and was beginning to think that this was his way of saying that there was no way he could help him.
"I don't blame him," Jude muttered to himself as he got up from his bed.
Thinking about all this alone was getting him nowhere and he had to go see the elf twins now.
He slid into his brown hoodie and hung his bag over his shoulder ready to make his way into the forest.
He opened the door expecting the hallway to be clear as always but that wasn't the case now as he had almost badged into Matilda who was standing at his doorstep with a covered plate in her hand.
She wasn't in her maid uniform this time and was rather putting on a long black dress.
"I was about to knock." She said with a smile.
"You didn't tell me you were coming tonight," Jude said.
"Well I didn't want to but your mother told me when I was leaving today that you no longer joined them for meals," Matilda said, stretching the covered plate towards him. "Here's your food."
"I don't have time for this Matilda." Jude refused to take the plate from her.
"Where are you going?" Matilda asked entering his room.
"I have to go figure some things out," Jude said, turning to face her.
"You're going to see the elves," Matilda said, dropping the plate on top of his cupboard.
"Yes, I have to," Jude said.
"I want to come with you," Matilda said abruptly with a little excitement in her voice.
"Come on Matilda, what if your master starts looking for you? How did you even get here in the middle of the curfew?" That was the question he had forgotten to ask her when he first saw her.
"I made sure Master Delop had gone to sleep before I came out, he won't be awake till midnight and as for how I made it here in the middle of the curfew, don't worry nobody saw me," Matilda said.
Jude didn't say anything as he stared at her expressionless.
"Come on, you don't have to worry about me, the guards won't see me." She said, placing her head on his chest. "I just want to see the elves."
"Fine," Jude said.
"Oh, thanks, honey." She said, giving him a peck.
"Just stay close to me." He said as they both walked out of the room and he slowly shut the door.
They two made their way out of the house through the back door.
"Just stay close to me." He said walking slowly into the street but just as he turned to check on Matilda he was surprised to discover that she was no longer there.
"Matilda." She whispered looking around but there was no sign of her. "Where did she go?"
After looking around without being able to find her, Jude assumed that maybe she had decided to go back inside or return to her master's house.
He slowly made his way through the street and just like always maneuvered his way through the guards until he had gotten to the forest.
"Took you too long." He heard Matilda's voice from behind as soon as he had entered the forest.
"How did you get here before me?" He asked as he turned to her with a shocked expression on his face.
"I told you nobody saw me." She said walking past him but she didn't walk any further as she stopped in front of him.
"I'm waiting for you to lead the way." She said,
Tauriel and Tuchel were getting ready to head to the hole where they usually met with Jude every night when Jude suddenly entered the cave with Matilda.
"Jude," Tauriel said.
"And who's this, I thought you said no other person would know about this place?" Tuchel asked, sounding a little annoyed.
"Calm down Tuchel, this is Matilda, my girlfriend, she's not going to tell anyone," Jude said.
"Hello," Matilda said, waving at the two elves.
"Girlfriend?" Tauriel muttered.
Her heart felt like it had just gotten pierced by a dagger.
