Luis was greeted by his normal alarm which reminded him that he was still far away from leveling up, but with each passing day, he was inching closer.
His quest of eating vegetables for twenty-four hours didn't seem to be active again after he became a Demi-Angel.
Since becoming a Demi-Angel his body felt different before and never required food unless he did something as tiring as what they did yesterday.
Getting up from his bed Luis didn't waste time to start getting ready for the day.
Ace and Dylan woke up to find Luis getting dressed to leave.
He had left yesterday during the evening and they never saw him return until they both fell asleep.
Now he was up before them and was already leaving.
"Luis." Ace called.
"Oh, hi guys I just want to be in class early today, have some things to sort out," Luis explained the reason he was leaving so early before they asked.
"But how did you get in yesterday?" Dylan asked.
"The door was open," Luis said.
"It was?" Ace was surprised because he made sure to lock the door before they went to bed.
"See you guys in class," Luis said quickly leaving through the door.
Ace was still confused and walked to the door.
'He melted the knob. But how?' Ace thought looking at the slightly melted knob.
Luis didn't exactly head to class like he told his roommates he was going to, instead he went to the cafeteria, the large hall where everybody gathered to have their meals.
His reason for being here was because of the quest he had received last night, Luis hardly visited the cafeteria he had only been here once since the start of school.
Luis took a seat where he knew nobody would disturb him and waited patiently until students started to walk into the cafeteria, taking their food and heading to a table.
Of course, Luis had taken some food, he wasn't going to eat them but that way he wouldn't look suspicious.
A few minutes later his lead walked into the cafeteria, he had a little bump on his forehead, it didn't look quite serious and Luis wished he had hurt him more.
While walking to his table, Zach made eye contact with Luis and quickly looked away.
A few seconds after Zach had taken his seat two boys walked in and after taking their food headed straight for Zach's table.
Luis was sure of it now, these were the boys, he wished he could just get up, give them the beating and get over with it, but that wouldn't be the best course of action in an open place like this.
Luis watched them carefully as they conversed while eating their food.
One of them even tried to touch the bump on his head but he knocked his handoff.
When the trio was leaving the cafeteria, Luis made sure to mark the faces of the two which he was to deal with next.
With his task achieved Luis decided to head to class before his two roommates showed up.

Lessons for the day went as usual with Miss Nicole giving them theories on certain areas.
With the classroom teaching done, it wouldn't be long before the students would have to head to their combat Classes.
This was the free period they had before the break and the students were doing as they wished.
There was a certain storyteller in the class who was drawing most of the class's attention as he was completely surrounded.
Even Dylan and Ace had gone to check what the whole ruckus was all about.
When Luis got closer, he could hear the exact words of the boy and although he wasn't sure of how he looked, with what he was saying he was sure of it, this was the boy he had saved last night.
The boy was narrating how a stranger had stepped in at the right time and saved him from the bully.
He didn't explain the reason why he was getting bullied and just said that he was getting bullied when a stranger with a scarf covering his mouth showed up and saved him.
"What was the color of the scarf?" Someone asked from the crowd.
"I think it was…. red."
Luis' heart settled at that answer, his scarf wasn't red rather it was orange, the darkness had made it hard for the boy to tell the real color.
But still, more questions were coming which Luis wasn't going to like at all.
"What was he wearing?"
"He was in the same uniform as us."
Luis bit his tongue, if he knew the boy wasn't going to be this talkative, he would have knocked him down along with Zach, at least waking up he might think it was a dream. Who would even like to tell the tale of how he was kicked in the head?
" That means he's a student like us."
"I think so."
The boy Luis had saved last night was a boy who went by the name Timmy. He was one of the arrogant ones in the class, who loved talking a lot.
Luis had some questions for him concerning what he heard last night but that would wait for now.
"A student, he must be a third-year student."
"Don't be silly, it can be anyone."
One of the information which Timmy had kept away from his listeners was the identity of the person who was bullying him, he said he didn't see the person's face but Luis knew it was a lie.
'You are going to spill whatever you're hiding when I'm ready for you.' Luis thought.
Luis was glad to hear the bell for lunch break as the students began to leave the class one by one.
After lunch break, it was time for everyone to head to their various combat classes.
Catching up with his classmates, Luis noticed that their faces didn't look the brightest and he knew why.
On opening the door to their class hall, they saw that Michael was already there and he was in some sort of black robe.
A few seconds after the group of four had entered, the door opened, and in came Monica and Henry.
"You guys are here already," Monica said smiling.
'While is she suddenly smiling now?' Henry thought.
Ignoring the chatter among his students, Michael went on to explain the agenda of today.
"Since most of you are complaining about my training method, I have decided to make things easier for you," Michael said. "All you have to do is beat me in a weapon-less spar and you are out of the physical Training."
Everywhere was quiet as the students were thinking if they could beat their teacher who seemed to always appear overly confident.
But someone wasn't thinking at all as she walked up to Michael.
"I accept your challenge."
A smirk appeared on Michael's face on seeing the first challenger.
"The wonder warrior comes first."
