My Angel system

"Owwwwww." Luis groaned as he slowly opened his eyes.

"I warned you," Michael said and took a sip from his drink.

The most annoying part of everything for Luis was that all those attacks would be enough to destroy a lot of demons but it had not been able to make a dent on the padlock and the shelf it was protecting.

But still, he couldn\'t deny the fact that Michael had warned him before he started attacking the padlock.

"Are you looking for any way to get a pure blade?" Luis asked as he walked up to him.

"Not actually but I am trying to see if there are other ways to break a shadow enchantment," Michael said.

"Can\'t you just buy one?" Luis asked.

"I could," Michael said. "But money doesn\'t grow on trees Luis."

"So the book is going to remain locked until you find another way to break the enchantment ."

"It\'s either that or you could keep working in the library, raise a few more coins, and maybe I could help you get a pure blade," Michael said.

This was his way of telling Luis to convince Luis to continue working at the library, it was quite a smart move as the Angel would have no choice but to continue working.

Another annoying part of everything for Luis was that he couldn\'t tell whether Michael was lying or not as his mind read wouldn\'t work on him.

"And now you\'ve managed to get me back on the same spot," Luis said with a frown.

"I didn\'t know the padlock was protected with shadow enchantment, I don\'t have aura vision like you do," Michael said.

"Fine," Luis said angrily, heading toward the elevator.

"Wait."

"What?" Luis said, turning back.

"You haven\'t cleaned the floor yet," Michael said, picking up the mop stick beside him.

Inside the warehouse on Joe-Joe mountain, the first area was empty as today wasn\'t the weekend but as we moved further inside, George could be seen in the dark room sitting on the chair which looked like some sort of throne.

He was sitting on the chair while silently staring at the ceiling but he wasn\'t alone as four of his boys were sitting on the couches there.

The students there were Zach, Dan, and Luke, his three main link-ups among the second-year students.

"I told you I needed ten gold coins before the end of the weekend Zach and you only brought me four." George finally turned to the boys to say.

"I\'m sorry boss but the students are being more careful now that they know their complaints are not being taken seriously," Zach said.

"Then how did you get four?" George asked.

"From the less cautious ones who took the lonely road," Zach said.

"How many students did you encounter on the lonely road?" George asked.

"I think it was…"

"Five," Dan said.

"And how many coins did you get from each of them?"

"One gold from each of them," Zach said.

Immediately after he had said that George burst into a peal of loud laughter that made the three gulp.

"If you took one coin each from five students, how come you only gave me four coins?"

"That\'s the problem boss, we were only able to take something from four of them," Zach said.

"What happened to the other person?" George asked.

It was at this moment that Zach realized that he had made a mistake by adding the fifth person, he just couldn\'t bring himself to tell George what had really happened with the fifth person.

"I asked you a question, Zach."

"He was too strong for us," Zach said with his head bowed.

"The three of you?" George asked.

"No, just me and Dan," Zach said. "He was just like that green-eyed kid but stronger."

"Was it the green-eyed boy?" George asked.

"No boss, this one had red eyes like… like."

"Like what?"

"Red flames," Zach said.

"Red," George said with a sigh as he turned away from the boys. "Well he\'s not a problem and if he decides to be one he will also get the same treatment that green-eyed crap would soon get."

After muttering that to himself he turned back to the boys.

"I am going to give you one more chance to get me those ten gold coins before this week runs out and if you fail me," George said.

"We won\'t boss," Zach said.

"You better not."

At the King\'s palace in Asaka, King Roy was currently inside his throne room sitting on his throne while rolling a bunch of coins in his hand.

Judging by the look on his face you could tell he was quite anxious.

It had been three days now since they had received that letter from the elf king and since that day there had been no progress in finding the elves that he was told were in his kingdom.

The homes of everyone in Asaka had been searched twice since there was no result from the search.

It was yesterday that he had decided to send out a message to the elf king telling him that he couldn\'t find the elves he was looking for in his kingdom.

The message was sent out yesterday which meant that the response would be arriving today and that was the reason he was quite anxious as he thought of the possible responses the elf king could give him or maybe he could kill the messenger and leave him and his kingdom in a state of dilemma.

He rolled back his head on his throne and was about to close his eyes when he heard someone run into the throne room.

"My lord." The guard called.

"What is it?" King Roy asked.

"The messenger, he has returned." The guard said.

"Then what are you waiting for? Bring him in."

"He is not in a good condition, my lord." The guard said.

"I did not ask you what condition he was in," Roy said, almost yelling at him.

The guard left to return a few minutes later with a hand hanging over his shoulder and a few drops of blood trailing behind them.

That was when Roy understood what the guard meant by he wasn\'t in good condition, the messenger\'s left limb had been completely chopped off and although it was covered with a little piece of clothing, it was still slightly bleeding.

Roy couldn\'t take his eyes off the messenger as the guard dropped him in front of his throne.

"What happened?" Roy asked.

"They gave me a place to stay and while I was fast asleep they chopped my left limb off, the king said it was a form of warning to you." The messenger said, trying to keep his breathing under control.

"What about the message? Did he give you a message?" Roy asked.

"Yes, your majesty." The messenger said as he reached for his bag and brought out the scroll.

The guard took the scroll from him and brought it to the king.

King Roy took the scroll from the guard and was quite hesitant to open it but he knew he had to and just as he opened it and read the little content written on it, a horrid look appeared on his face.

This message was worse than the last one and he had to do something quickly.
