Chapter 377 Silence Is Dangerous
"I meant that I learned how to do it from a book," Luis said.
"A book?" Orah said.
"Yeah," Luis replied with a nod.
There was nothing wrong with telling Orah that Nova was an Angel but Nova had made it clear that she didn\'t want anyone else to find out about her true identity and Luis had to respect that, he was just glad that she wasn\'t trying to go after Orah just because he was a Demon.
"What book?" Orah asked.
"It\'s a special book, I found it at the museum on the highest floor in the museum," Luis said.
"The museum?"
"Yeah, you see that tall building over there?" Luis said, pointing toward the museum.
"Yeah," Orah said after spotting the building which wasn\'t that hard given the fact that the building was the tallest in the academy.
"That\'s the museum," Luis said.
"Okay, but you know your aura isn\'t suppressed right now, I can still smell it on you," Orah said, giving him a sniff.
"Yeah," Luis said as he closed his eyes and slowly absorbed his aura until it was completely suppressed. "Can you still smell it?"
"No," Orah said, shaking his head.
"Good," Luis said, allowing his aura to flow freely around him.
The reason why he wasn\'t keeping his aura suppressed for now was because Nova had told him to keep it that way for now.
"That book really taught you well," Orah said, slightly nodding his head.
"Yeah, it did," Luis said with a smile.
There was a little moment of silence between the two as Luis slowly began to step back inside just before Orah decided to ask him something.
"Hey, I don\'t have anything to do right now so do you mind sparring with me, just a normal spar no abilities no weapons?" Orah said.
Luis stared at him for a while contemplating on what to say before finally giving him an answer.
"Sure, that would be nice, I don\'t have anything to do either," Luis said before stepping outside and slowly closing the door.
"Cool," Orah said with a smile.
"I know a place that will just be nice for sparring, follow me," Luis said, walking toward the direction as Orah quickly followed him.
\'I just hope someone attacks me from nowhere anytime soon now.\'

"So who is this Todd?" Ace asked as both he and Chloe headed toward the arcade.
"He\'s a first-year student at our academy who for some reason likes to disturb Tania, I can\'t believe he kissed her," Chloe said, biting her lower lip.
"He kissed her because he likes her, it\'s not like he did anything bad to her, he just didn\'t know that she didn\'t see him the same way he saw her." Ace said.
"If he really liked her then he should have done something about his sister," Chloe said.
"Sister? What sister?" Ace asked as the two had come to a half in front of the arcade.
"Just forget it, Ace, I don\'t want to talk about that, let\'s just go see what cool game you said they have here," Chloe said, already heading inside.
"Okay." Ace said before following her.
Ace led her to the disc game after they had entered the arcade and looking at the person who was currently trying to hold his ground against the disc now she didn\'t look impressed.
"Is this the game?" She asked, looking at her fingernails.
"Yeah." Ace said. "Why do I get the feeling that you\'re not impressed?"
"Because we have that thing at our academy and I never made it past level four, that game is rigged." She concluded.
"Rigged?"
"Chloe."
Chloe quickly turned her gaze to her right where the voice had come from to see her cousin brother standing there.
"Jasper," Chloe said as a smile suddenly made its way to her face.
"I see you\'re still with him," Jasper said, turning his gaze to Ace.
"Hi, Jasper." Ace said.
Jasper was Chloe\'s cousin from Tron Ville academy, he was a second-year student.
Jasper had short dark hair, curvy pink lips that fitted perfectly with his face, and a small slightly pointed nose.
He had a sturdy chest, broad shoulders and he was quite muscular compared to other students.
"So are you two like, together?" Jasper asked.
"This is a date." Ace said.
"Yeah it\'s a date but we\'re not together," Chloe said.
"Not yet." Ace said. "But soon." He muttered.
"So, what are you doing here?" Chloe asked turning her gaze to Jasper pretending not to have heard what Ace just said.
"To play that game, obviously," Jasper said, pointing toward the area. "That\'s why you\'re also here, right?"
There was no response from Chloe as Jasper slowly shifted his gaze to Ace in search of an answer.
"She hates the game because she never made it past level four." Ace said.
"Oh," Jasper said, turning his gaze back to Chloe.
"That\'s not the only reason why I hate it," Chloe said quickly, crossing her arms.
"Then what is the other reason?" Ace asked.
"You don\'t have to know." She said shooting a cold glance at him.
"Okay." Ace said backing down from the question.
"I\'m going to go see how far I can go now," Jasper said quickly heading toward the area after a student had gotten knocked out.
\'He hasn\'t returned after what Luis did to him.\' Ace thought looking around.
He was absolutely right, there had been no sign of Mason since the day Luis humiliated him in front of the students there and that was why the students were playing the game freely now as they didn\'t have to give anyone a gold coin if they failed to make it past level five.
The game had started as soon as Jasper had entered the circular device on the floor.
The level was not a problem for him as he knocked away all the discs without any trouble.
The same thing could be said for level two as he kicked and punched back the discs before they could hit or fly past him.
Level three was a little tricky for him but he was still able to cruise past it.
Level four was where things began to take a toll on him but with full concentration, he was able to make it past the level.
Everyone expected him to fail at level five but he proved them wrong as he held his ground and narrowly made it past the level with three discs almost flying past him.
He wasn\'t so lucky in level six as he had gotten hit by the first couple of discs and that was the end of the game for me.
There was soft applause among the students there as he came off the spot and the reason being that he had been the only one to make it past level five since today.
"Impressive right?" Jasper said after returning to Ace and Chloe.
"Yeah," Chloe said with a wide smile on her face.
"It\'s good but not impressive." Ace said.
"How is making it past level five in that thing not impressive?" Chloe turned to Ace to ask.
"Well, Luis made it past level six." Ace said.
"Luis?" Chloe said with a stunned expression on her face.
"Who\'s Luis?" Jasper asked.

In what appeared to be a clubhouse, the sound of wild music and the noise of the people in the club created a very wild atmosphere there.
Simply put, the place was a secret underground gangster club.
The smell of alcohol filled the whole area as seductively dressed women walked around.
The huge tattooed guy whose form had been taken by the hooded witch had entered the area now and he was receiving strange stares as he walked past each table in the club.
It looked like he was heading toward the counter and just as he was about to get there, he felt someone tap him on his back, and just as he turned he received a stinging slap on his cheek.
"Do you mind telling me what you were doing with my friend last night?"
He slowly opened his eyes to see a blonde-haired girl who had her nose pierced dressed in a revealing red dress.
"Answer me, Rick!" The girl screamed after there was no response from him.
All the attention in the club was on them now.
There was still no response from him as he slowly turned to continue going where he was going.
The girl tried to send a punch toward him and he, being aware of that, quickly turned and caught her hand before it could touch him.
"When will you people learn that silence is dangerous and you should avoid it?" He said with a menacing voice as the blonde girl was slowly falling to her knees, her skin slowly turning pale and her eyes slowly sinking inside.
"What are you doing to me, Rick?" She asked with a fading voice.
"My name is not Rick, Rick is gone." He said as he absorbed the remaining life force in her.
Her skin completely turned pale as her eyes sank deeply inside, there was nothing left of her as he finally let go of her.
The whole place was quiet for a while after witnessing what just happened even the DJ had reduced the music.
"What did you do Rick!?" A voice suddenly screamed from the back. "What are you all standing there for? Kill him!"
Suddenly numerous blades and weapons coupled with elemental abilities consisting of water and earth came flying toward his direction all at once.
He quickly got covered by a thick purple aura just before the attacks could get to him and when the aura cleared he was no longer there.
The bartender stood behind the bar with numerous blades stuck to his body and blood gushing out from his neck all the attacks had missed the target and had gone for him instead.
Loud gasps came from the females there as the bartender slowly dropped to the floor.
