Chapter 405  Complicated

"Hey, what's with that look on your face?" Tammy asked as the two walked toward the large hall near the exit gate which was meant for accommodating and entertaining the special guests and parents.

"What look?" Luis asked without even turning his gaze to her.

"You look, um…, a little upset, did anybody offend you?" She asked.

"And since when do you care about how I feel?" The Angel asked.

Tammy didn't know exactly what to say and just stared at him for a while before she slowly turned her gaze away from him.

Nothing was said between the two again until they got to the hall which seemed surprisingly scanty as there were only a few parents there meeting up with their children.

"Over here!" Ray yelled from where he was staying with his parents as soon as he spotted Tammy and Luis.

"There they are," Tammy said before she began to make his way to the area.

Luis wasn't too quick to follow her as he decided to do something first.

[ Aura vision activated ]

He scanned the area with his aura vision to make sure that there was nothing suspicious going on there and that everyone in the area was human.

'Clear.' He said subconsciously.

'You know you can't be completely sure of that, demons can suppress their auras and you can't spot that with your aura vision.' Lena said.

'Yeah, but the fact that everyone here has a very active aura means that there's no one suppressing their aura here.

After clearing that up for Lena, he made his way to the family who were busy listening to what Tammy was telling them now.

"Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Phillips," Luis said as soon he got closer. "Hey, Ray." He added before turning his gaze to the little boy who was looking up at him with a confused expression on his face.

"Luis?" He muttered with a confused expression.

"How're you doing, dear?" Sarah asked.

"I'm okay." The Angel replied.

"Hey, Luis," Greg called, causing Luis to turn his gaze to him. "You look a little different."

"What are you talking about, dad? It's still the same Luis that you know." Tammy said.

"No, something's different about him, he's slightly taller now, his shoulders are broader compared to before and he looks a little more handsome." He pointed out.

"Yeah, now that you've mentioned it, it's true," Sarah said.

"Huh," Tammy said before turning her gaze to him.

'Maybe it's because I've been seeing him regularly that's why I haven't noticed the changes but looking at him closely now, it's true, he's changed.'

She seemed to be lost gazing at him until he turned his gaze toward her forcing her to quickly look away.

"I heard you beat a third-year student to win the first competition of the tournament, the disc dodging competition," Greg said.

"Yeah." The Angel said.

"It's impressive how you were able to do it with a stab wound on your shoulder." He said before reaching for the shoulder where the Angel had gotten stabbed. "How's your shoulder by the way?"

Luis quickly drew back from him to prevent him from touching his shoulder.

"It's okay, the wound wasn't that deep, it's healing fine." He said.

"Okay," Greg said.

"How about we go have lunch together just like we used to do before the academy made it mandatory for students to be boarders," Sarah said.

"Yeah, let's go kids," Greg said before he began to make his way to the door leading to the cafeteria.

After the tournament had come to an end for the day, Ella quickly went to look for his brother and it didn't take her long to find him with someone she didn't expect to see him with.

Right now the two were walking down a path while having a little chat.

"So mom and dad aren't here yet." She said,

"No, they may be arriving late," Mike said before sticking both of his hands into his pockets.

"Oh, okay." She said,

There was a little moment of silence between the two before she decided to ask him something.

"So you and Emma's big sister, Aurora."

"Huh?" He said before turning his gaze to her.

"Are you two dating something?" She asked.

"No, we're not, why would you ask that?"

He seemed so calm and all it had taken to rile him up was that one question from Emma.

"Really? It looked like you two were about to kiss before I showed up." The lightning mage said.

"No, we weren't, we were just talking," Mike said with a nervous look on his face.

"I know what I saw."

'Help me out here Jasmine.'

'No, you'll have to deal with this one yourself.'

'So, they are dating.' She replied.

'I never said that.' Jasmine said.

"I don't even care that much, just pray mom and dad don't find out soon and she should be praying that her parents don't find out too." She said before crossing her arms.

"You're not going to tell them are you?"

"Didn't you hear me, I said I don't care."

"Oh, thanks, baby sis." He said before letting out a sigh of relief.

Ella didn't reply to him and just kept moving along with him.

"So, How's your training going?" He asked.

"Good, in fact, I just discovered new things about my powers that I would love to ask you about." She replied.

"New things?" He said with a gulp. "Like what?"

"Lightning mages are the only ones that have to chant spells in order to use their abilities." She said,

The two had come to a sudden halt as she slowly turned her gaze to him with a piercing look in her eyes.

"Normal lightning users like you don't get to say anything." She said,

"That's because you're special," Mike said, he didn't like where this was going but he knew it was going to happen one day.

"Yeah, but you didn't tell me the whole story big brother, how come I am the only one in the family who has to say litno to activate my lightning ability?" As soon as the trigger word left her mouth, sparks of lightning began to surround her hands. "Or get angry before they are activated."

"Because you're special."

"Stop saying that!" She yelled as her eyes took a quick white glow before returning to normal.

Mike was startled by this and cautiously took two steps backward.

'Calm down, Ella, if you go out of control then I'll have to use my vines.' Jasmine said.

The lightning sparks around her hands slowly went off as she had managed to get a hold of her temper.

"Big brother, please explain what's happening, I already know that I am a lightning mage but I want to hear it from you and I want to know why it had to be this way." She said, looking at him with eyes desperate for answers.

"I just realized that I have somewhere to be, I'll see you later, sis." He said.

"Hey, don't go." She tried to reach him but before she could, he was covered by a bright spark of lightning and when the whole thing was gone, he was no longer there.

Ella didn't say anything and just stood there looking at the spot, trying to keep a straight face but deep down she was confused and heartbroken.

"Why does my life have to be this complicated?" She muttered.

The Goblin Kingdom were one of the strongest kingdoms in the land, they had good military forces, strong elemental mages and to make things worse for the other kingdoms, they had one of the most formidable sorcerers to ever live.

Their attacking forces were great and so were their defensive forces, the kingdom was surrounded by large walls which made invading them a mammoth of a task for any kingdom.

It had been three days since the dark portal popped up in the sky over Asaka and people all over the kingdoms were beginning to talk about it including the goblins in the goblin Kingdom.

Right now, Saganus was on one of the towers in the kingdom, looking at the faraway portal with his arms crossed behind his back.

"Do you know what it is, my lord?" The goblin standing behind him asked.

Saganus didn't reply for a long while and it looked like he wasn't going to reply but the one who had asked the question knew that he was going to reply.

"It's not a surprise that many of you do not know about it." He said. "That is a portal to the dark dimension, it can only be opened if certain conditions are met, I won't be surprised if there has already been a massacre in Asaka."

"A massacre?"

"The only person who would want to open that portal is a demon or a human being misled by a demon."

"But what is the portal for, my lord?" The goblin asked.

"To bring an army of demons into this world," Saganus said.

"Army of demons?" The goblin said with a horrid look on his face. "But why hasn't the army come through yet, it's been three days since that portal opened up in the sky?"

"Because they need one more thing."

"And what is that?"

"The staff of a light wizard, the portal only opens the gateway, they need the staff to create the path, that is the only way the demons can come through from the dark dimension."
