My Angelic System

"I see, fair enough then,' Kye nodded. "Though I still have a question. As you can see, I'm just level 1 whereas you're level 6. So is it normal for us to spar together?" Madison had said it herself. Everyone was going to have a partner around their level, so he didn't understand the logic of the professors at this point.

"That's indeed strange," Sylvia began to thought. "Well I can't see any reason, so let's just ask them."

Kye searched for Madison, but she was nowhere to be seen. He didn't want to go and ask Azul since it was clear that the latter still had a grudge toward him, but without Madison, there wasn't a thousand option left.

"Sylvia, do you mind asking Sir Azul please?" Kye asked. "I can't see professor Madison anywhere, and I don't think he will answer me even if I ask him."

"Yeah, of course, just a second," Sylvia then left his side and went to Azul.

During this time, Kye looked around him, only to see no one. Everyone was already underwater fighting. He could even see some abilities coming out of the water. 'I guess I will have to work harder so that I can make up for the time I lose here," He then took a look at Sylvia and saw that her face was quite distorted. She even looked angry.

After coming back, Sylvia looked down and said. "I'm sorry Kye, but it seems that Azul has developed a grudge against you. So much that he wanted me to bully you during this training. That's why we were together. And since he is higher positioned than me in our family, he thought that I would have to obey him no matter the cost."

'What a b*stard. I knew that he wanted to beat me up, but to use such plans and someone who didn't have anything to do with the situation to do the dirty work,' If Kye could spat on the ground because of how disgusted he was, he would have done it without hesitation.

So after making a sad expression, he answered Sylvia. "You said 'he thought', does that mean that he's wrong?"

"Although I would have to in normal cases, I won't do it this time. You're a student, and you have the right to question the professor when you don't understand something," She said truthfully. "And if I have to be honest, I think the same way as you. I find it really d*mb to have such water if it doesn't even affect our ability."

"Thank you then," Kye smiled brightly, making Sylvia relieved that he didn't hold any grudge and smiled back. "But can I ask one last question?" Sylvia nodded. "You said that he had a higher position than you in your family. What does that mean?"

"I know that you hang out with the three last sons of the other big families, so it will be easier to explain," She began her explanation. "To make things simple, the more you are positioned high in the family, the more resources would be invested into you. And the position is given once you join the family. So it is very hard to change it once they gave it to you.

"For example, Yugo, Ven, and Enzo are all positioned among the last. And even if they have a lot of talent, they still stay at the bottom of the ladder of their respective family because it has been defined like this for centuries now. (AN: It's the way of ranking people in their families that has been defined centuries ago, not the boys' ranking.)

"And I, even though aren't last, I'm not among the top either. I'm around the middle, whereas Azul is very close to the top. And in our family, the higher you are, the higher your authority is. So in normal situations, I would have to obey him. But well, who cares about that. He almost made a big blow to the family just because of his pride. So I won't do anything he orders me to. Not that I would have if he was a better person. It's not in my nature to bully people, and even less those who had surely suffered almost all their lives like you."

Hearing all of that, Kye smiled a little because first, he understood what the big families were a little more. He was surrounded by the descendant of those big families, so it would have been stranger to not search for information about them. And thanks to everything she said, he understood that at least, even though his friends are from big families, they won't be able to destroy someone else completely because of their influence. So he was relieved to have learned that.

And second, Kye was happy because Sylvia was exactly like how he remembered in the VR. She wasn't playing a persona. No, far from it. She was true to her convictions and didn't sway around even if it means that she could get into trouble later.

"Thank you very much for all the information you gave me," Kye made a deep bow to express his gratitude. It was also at the same time to thank her for telling him the truth and that she wouldn't obey Azul.

"Don't worry, it's normal," Sylvia smiled. "And if someone knows how to search, it's easy information to get."

"Anyway, should we now go?" Kye smiled and asked once their last discussion was closed.

"Sure," Sylvia smiled back at him and both of them went underwater.

They had a lot of space, so they didn't need to go far to begin their spar. So after nodding to each other, Kye began to swim to disorientate Sylvia. However, the latter was now in her element. She was focusing on the water aspect of her ability, so she had an advantage in this fight.

Though, to play fair and to train herself, she created her water blades instead of using the water around her and sent them toward the swimming Kye while preparing herself at using her new weapon: her whip.

She had changed class not long ago, so she was now able to have a weapon with her.

'This Kye reminds me of someone,' Sylvia began to think as she began to wave her whip while sending water blades without interruption. She began her never-ending onslaught. 'His voice, the way he speaks, and his kindness remind me of him. He even has the same type of sword and the way he dodges is also like him.

'But it doesn't make sense. Fallen Angel is a high-level person, whereas Kye is just level 1. The former also has this light ability whereas Kye didn't use anything even though exactly five meters are separating us.'

Sylvia could unfortunately not think too long about this because Kye was closing the distance dangerously. He moved so well that he managed to dodge everything, even under that many attacks. Sometimes with so little margin that he almost lost a limb, whereas sometimes with such a big margin that it was clear he had predicted the trajectory of the blades or whip.

And a lot of people began to stop fighting to watch their fight. It was very intense and exciting for them to see such a fight underwater.

'It seems that I always have to dodge at the beginning,' Kye thought as he finally come in range to swing his weapon with a chance to hit her.

However, he still wasn't completely used to the pressure of the water, so his swing was a little slower than what he would have hoped, letting Sylvia all the time she wanted to step to the side and swing a water sword toward Kye's lower abdomen.

He would have a hard time dodging that. And even if he wanted to duck down, he will surely get hit because the sword was moving quickly.

And yet he managed to predict that Sylvia would have aimed here, so he was already going upward even before she began swinging her sword.

'How I would love to use my Holy ray right now,' Kye thought and clicked his tongue internally before going one more time toward Sylvia.

This time he decided to feint an attack. He had his sword in his right hand. So he moved his body toward the left to make Sylvia think that he would have attacked from this side, but she decided to play it safe and took a step back by creating a water platform under her feet, thus dodging Kye's right swing by a finger length.

Unlike Kye, she didn't manage to predict this move, so she dodged at the last moment. Though she still managed to dodge and then waved her hand quickly and ten water blades rushed toward Kye at irregular intervals.
