Luis stared at the pebble-sized tree in amazent, he was expecting Johnny to get back his strength ability just like Fred got back his water ability but that didn't seem to be the case as the Demi-Angel had gotten a whole new ability.
The ability was new in two ways, the first one being that it was replacing Johnny's strength ability and the second way being that it was the first ti any of them were seeing such an ability.
'That is going to be a problem.' Luis thought.
If Johnny had gotten back his formal ability just like Fred did then keeping what he had beco a secret wasn't going to be so hard, but now that he had gotten a new and sohow terrifying ability, he could easily get figured out.
"Hey, what did you do? That's not his ability." Fred said.
"Keep quiet, I can see that," Luis said and just like he said Fred couldn't say anything again and the only thing he could do was shoot daggers at the Angel as he walked closer to Johnny.
Johnny had been quiet the whole ti as he kept looking at his hands like they no longer belonged to him.
"What is this ability?" Johnny asked as soon as Luis got close to him.
"It's called resize blast," Luis said.
"Resize blast." Ella decided to join in on the conversation. "Doesn't that an he can also use it to increase the size of the tree?"
[ ?????? Detected ]
Luis had his usual thoughts going through his mind as he stared at Ella's chest, her necklace was tucked into her uniform and that pretty much made it look like that was where he was looking.
'Why do I keep getting that ssage every single ti she cos close to with that necklace.'
This wasn't the first nor was it the second ti Luis was getting such a ssage, he was already aware that the energy he was detecting was coming from the necklace which had a green aura that appeared to look stronger and brighter than the human aura.
'But it's just a necklace.'
"Luis," Ella called imdiately after she noticed that he wasn't paying attention to her and had his eyes elsewhere.
"Yes," Luis said. "Yes, he should be able to do that."
"I don't know-how, are you sure I'm not just going to shrink the poor tree more," Johnny said.
"Poor tree? You wanted to rip it off the soil." Ella said.
"And then return it," Johnny said.
"Listen, I don't know if this will work but when you place your hands on the pebble-sized tree, try to have this feeling of giving out sothing from within you, instead of the feeling of taking away you had when you wanted to rip it off," Luis said.
"Ok," Johnny said and then took a deep breath before squatting down beside the tree.
"The feeling of giving," Johnny said as he slowly placed his hands over the tree.
For a few monts, nothing happened but then a red glow began to form under Johnny's hands until it was a ball of red light.
The tree began to grow in size again forcing Johnny to step back a little, the red light was still leaving his hands and entering the tree and that's the reason the tree began to grow larger and taller than its original size.
"Stop," Luis said as he knocked his hand away from the tree's direction bringing the enlargent to a stop.
Sure Luis had stopped the enlargent from going too far but that didn't an the tree didn't go a little bit too far as it was now the size of the other trees in the forest.
The tree still looked like a young tree if you looked at its leaves and stem but now it was the size of the full-grown trees in the woods.
"That could have gone out of control," Luis said as he looked up at the tree.
"This is a really cool ability, if those guys co back again, I'll just shrink them to the size of ants and then squash them with my boots," Johnny said.
"That is very an and scary," Ella said
"No, you won't," Luis said.
"Why not?"
"Because that will draw attention to you, they will start wondering how you got such an ability since you used to have super strength as your ability."
Actually, Luis didn't find what he just said necessary because his third rule restricted them from using their abilities in any situation.
"Ok," Johnny said with a sigh.
[ 2 loyalty points received ]
'Huh?' Luis said in his mind. 'Do you know the concept behind gaining loyalty points and what it is for?'
'I don't actually know but I think it has to do with gaining the trust of your mbers and its use I don't know.' Lena said.
'Does that an Johnny is beginning to trust in ?' Luis thought. He knew there was no way it could be Fred.
"I still don't understand the reason why you called out here," Ella said with her hands folded.
"That's because I haven't gotten to the part where you get involved," Luis said.
"What part?"
"I want to see how well these guys can do in physical combat," Luis said.
"But you already tested that when you beat them up along with their other friends." Grumbling could be heard coming from Fred as Ella said this.
"I don't bla them much for losing that fight, because they underestimated ."
"So now you want to spar with them."
"Yes," Luis said with a nod.
Ella gave off a deep sigh as she slowly got into her fighting pose.
"You'll fight her first Johnny and rember your abilities aren't allowed," Luis said.
"Both of them can co at at once, I don't mind," Ella said.
'Are you sure about that?' Jasmine asked.
'If these are the sa guys Luis beat up, I'm pretty much sure.'
"Are you sure about that?" Luis asked.
"I already said yes."
"Ok," Luis said with a shrug as he turned to Fred. "No ability."
Fred was the first to charge in with the thought that there was no way a level four h first-year student could beat him, he justified Luis beating him with the fact that he was an Angel.
He charged with a punch which was easily avoided by Ella by stepping to the side, he quickly followed up with another punch but it was still slow as Ella easily avoided it, and this ti she decided to strike back.
Fred didn't even see her feet coming as she gave him a kick on his belly which sent him a little foot backward before he fell down.
'How is she that fast?' Fred thought as he gazed at his watch which displayed a level five l.
Ella wasn't even using her ability if she had used it, then Fred wouldn't be getting up for a very long ti.
"These guys are useless without abilities and weapons," Ella said.
"Weapons," Johnny muttered as he stretched his hands for his soul weapon to appear but nothing happened. "Our soul weapon disappeared too?" He said as he turned to Luis who had his back against the enlarged tree.
"I forgot to tell them about that." He said.
'Angels don't need soul weapons.' Lena said.
Sothing clicked in Luis' mind after hearing Lena say that.
'Soone once told that.'
Johnny was keeping up with Ella a little but he was still taking the beating from Ella, the only difference between him and Fred was that he had a more durable body, that was the reason he was still standing after all the kicks and punches.
"We're lucky to have a martial arts class with Michael as our teacher," Luis said as he watched the various being used by Ella in the one-sided fight.
His mind drifted for a second as he looked up at the tree he was resting on, images of the first ti he took energy from a tree appeared in his mind and then an idea ca to his mind.
He turned around and placed both of his hands on the bark of the tree.
'Why didn't I think of this before?'
[ 50% of tree's life force consud ]
He expected to receive five stat points for his stamina but such a ssage never ca.
"What?"
He didn't even pay attention to the leaves of the tree that were beginning to look weak as he placed his hand on the tree again.
[ 100% of tree's life force consud ]
[ 1 stat point added to stamina ]
'Only one point.'
Ella was about to punch Johnny who made an X with his hands to block it, but the punch never ca, he removed his hands from his face to see that Ella had her gaze up with a terrified look on her face, Johnny imdiately turned to see what she was looking at.
The tree which Luis took away all its life force was withering before their eyes, its leaves had already turned grey and had all fallen off and now its stem and branches began to shrink until nothing was left of the tree.
