My Angel system

Chapter 347 Unexplainable

"How the heck did you get your hands frozen?" Monica asked as she held a fireball over Ace's hands to melt the ice holding them together.

"Just hold the fireball there for a while." Ace said with a shaky voice after the ice had melted off.

That ice had been on his hands for quite a while now so just melting them off wasn't going to make his hands warm.

"Okay, that's enough." He said as his hands had gotten warm again.

"Okay," Monica said as she threw the fireball to the floor.

"Thanks, Monica." Ace said with a voice of relief as he stretched his fingers.

"You still haven't told me how you got your hands frozen," Monica said. "Was it Henry?"

"No, that spiked hair wouldn't be able to do this to me." Ace said.

"Then who did it to you?" Monica asked.

"I was trying to win a date when that happened." Ace said.

"A date?" Monica said.

"Yeah, I met this cute girl somehow through Luis, I've been with her for a few hours today and when I asked her out she gave me a condition of sparring with her." Ace said.

"And then she beat you and froze your hands," Monica said.

"No, I won her but she tricked me and froze my hands." Ace said.

"You won the date?"

"Yeah, we're meeting at the cafeteria tonight." Ace said with a smile.

"But why didn't she unfreeze your hands?" Monica asked.

"I don't know, she just ran off." Ace said.

"Well she's a very mean person to leave you in that state, you're lucky she didn't give you frostbite," Monica said.

"I don't think she's mean." Ace said.

"Really? What does freezing your hands and leaving you in that state look like? Your hands could have zoned out if you didn't find me quickly." Monica said.

"So now you want me to forfeit the date because you think she's dark." Ace said, giving her a weird look.

"No, I didn't say that," Monica said.

"Then what are you saying?" Ace asked slightly, raising his voice.

Monica was trying to find the right words to use when Orah suddenly popped up behind her.

"Hi, guys," Orah said.

"Oh, hey Orah, how're you doing?" Ace asked.

"Good, have you seen Luis?" Orah asked.

"I haven't seen him for quite a while now but I think he's probably in our dorm room now." Ace said.

"Okay, what's your room number?" Orah asked.

"Seventy-two." Ace said.

"Okay, I'm going to go see if he's there," Orah said before walking off toward the dormitory area.

"Okay." Ace said before turning his gaze back to Monica who was still looking at Orah as he walked away.

"Hey, what's up with you?" Ace asked.

"What?" Monica said quickly, snapping out of her daze.

"You just went mute, it's not like you to suddenly go mute like that, you didn't even ask him how he was doing." Ace said.

"Was I supposed to? He looks fine." Monica said.

"And you were looking at him in a weird way." Ace said.

"No, I wasn't," Monica said.

"Yeah you were, I have eyes." Ace said pointing at his eyes.

"I don't know what you're talking about." She said, "I have to return to my dorm room now."

"Okay." Ace said.

"See you later Ace." She said already walking out of the area.

"Yeah, thanks for unfreezing my hand." Ace said, turning to watch her walk toward her dorm room.

"Well, that got weird fast." He said before making his way toward his dorm room.

"So you're saying that it's not possible for an Angel and a human to give birth to an Angel," Luis said.

"Yeah, that can never happen," Nova said.

"I'm quite confused, I don't know if I somehow became an Angel through the book, or maybe my mother was also an Angel and my abilities didn't manifest until I got here," Luis said.

"Your mother being an Angel is not possible because Miles was the only Angel that went missing at that time, the other Angels were still in heaven," Nova said.

"That means I must have become an Angel during my fall into that teleporter and somehow through the book," Luis said.

"Yeah but it's still confusing because I don't know how that's possible," Nova said.

"Huh?"

"For someone to be an Angel, he or she must have a direct link to one of the ten crystals in heaven," Nova said. "Maybe you're linked to the tenth crystal because that's your original family but that's still not supposed to be possible because your mother is not an Angel."

"Tenth faction," Luis muttered.

Nova didn't say anything for a few seconds as she turned away from him but it didn't take long before she had turned back to him.

"Wait a second, I got a report a few weeks ago about an eleventh crystal suddenly appearing from nowhere," Nova said as things were beginning to make sense to her.

"An eleventh crystal? I thought it was just ten crystals for the ten factions." Luis said with a confused expression on his face.

"Yeah it was supposed to be that way until you became an Angel in a strange way, you created a new faction, but how?" Nova said with a confused expression on her face.

'That was definitely me.' Luis thought, thinking back to when he had gotten the message about creating a new faction.

"How did you manage to pull this off, Miles?" Nova said.

"If you're right about there being an eleventh crystal doesn't that make me an Angel leader?" Luis asked.

"I guess it does but the other leaders will clearly have something to say about it," Nova said.

"Something like what?" Luis asked.

"To be honest they may not accept you, and may consider destroying the crystal before you create more Angels and Demi-Angels," Nova said.

"What will happen if the crystal gets destroyed?" Luis asked.

"Apart from your energy which will begin dropping way faster than it is supposed to, nothing will happen to you but the Angels under your faction..."

"What will happen to them?" Luis asked.

"They'll die," Nova said.

"They won't really consider doing that would they?" Luis asked with a nervous look on his face.

"The fact that you're originally one of us means they can come to the decision, it's not something against the rules," Nova said. "But you have nothing to worry about at the moment because they can't do anything about the crystal until they find out who it's connected to."

"What are you trying to say?" Luis asked.

"I'm not going to capture you, Luis," Nova said.

"Then what are you going to tell them? they'll still know that I'm here." Luis said.

"They'll know because your aura is open, we can detect it from up there with our aura detectors," Nova said.

"But I don't know how to suppress my aura," Luis said.

"I know and that's why I'm going to teach you," Nova said.

"Really?"

"Yeah." She said with a nod.

"That's great, Orah was going to teach me tomorrow but I think you would be a better teacher," Luis said.

The expression on Nova's face had changed as soon as she had heard that name.

"Orah, the demon boy?" Nova said. "The one that has his aura suppressed."

"Wait, how did you....?"

"There are a lot of things that you can't do yet as an Angel Luis," Nova said, moving closer to him.

"Oh."

"Now tell me, Luis, why are you associating yourself with a demon?" She asked, giving him a piercing stare.
