Saying a fight between an Angel who had three elemental abilities that were up to good levels and a human who had just one elemental ability with a bow and arrow was quite an understatement but it wasn't if the Angel had to fight without any of his special abilities.
'Avoiding those arrows without any of my abilities is going to be really tricky.' Luis thought.
'Why don't you summon any of those weapons in your inventory and avoid using their special skills.' Lena said.
'Yeah.'
If he was going to equip any weapon between his flaming sword and the double Katanas he would choose the double Katanas because of how versatile he was going to be with those blades in his hands.
But that also meant that he would have to knock the arrows away with the blades and doing that meant the gauge on the blades would start filling up and he didn't want that.
[ Flaming sword equipped ]
The flaming sword was a safer option for him because he had to activate the skill by will, unlike the Katana blades that would just start shooting attacks as soon as their gauge was full and also he had a feeling that either Zach or one of his boys might recognise the blades from his last scuffle with them.
[ Anti-gravity boots equipped ]
The anti-gravity boots didn't give him much improvement but still, they were something.
Ciara was the first to attack after the countdown, she pulled out two arrows from her arrow pack and fired them towards the Angel.
Slashing down both arrows wasn't really a problem for the Angel who found them to be moving quite slowly.
"A little intensity will wear you off," Ciara said as she began to fire at the Angel non-stop.
Luis raced towards her while avoiding and slashing down the ones he couldn't avoid but he couldn't do it all as he got hit on his shoulder.
[ -1 HP ]
"Only one HP," Luis muttered as he pulled the arrow out of his shoulder and kept running towards Ciara who was backing down now as she shut arrows at him.

"He will," Tammy said.
"Yeah, but it doesn't really look like that now," Pearl said.
Luis was still trying to close up on her as she shot arrows at him and was beginning to get hit a lot now.
Each arrow shot either on his shoulder or arms will take one HP, slow him down and he will just pull it out and keep running.
"It's like her arrows aren't meant to really hurt anyone," Luis said as he pulled out two arrows from his shoulders.
He was right because he had gotten his stomach pierced by two arrows a few minutes ago and that feeling was nothing compared to what he was feeling from these arrows.
[ 80/120 HP ]
'The effects on my hp do stack up though.' Luis thought.
'Yeah, but she'll be out of arrows anytime soon now.' Lena said.
So she thought and she was right but just as she shot her last arrows a whole new set of arrows appeared in her hand.
"You have arrow soul weapons?" Luis said as soon as he had stopped running.
"Yeah, I didn't want to use them because they would really hurt you but now I must use them." She said putting the arrows in her arrow pack.
'I think those are the real arrows that will really hurt you.' Lena said.
'I cannot get hit by any of those things.' Luis thought.
He cranked up his speed as Ciara quickly began to shoot at him.
He knew he was going to get hit anytime soon which was why he had come up with a crazy plan to stop Ciara from firing arrows at him.
He ran with his sword in his hand, waited for the right moment, and sent it flying towards the archer.
His plan was successful as the sword knocked off Ciara's bow and cut the string in the process but in the process of throwing his sword, he had lost guard as the last two arrows shot by Ciara pierced his chest and forced him to go down on one knee.
[ -10 HP ]
"Arghhh!" He groaned as he pulled the arrows out.
'I am starting to develop great hate for arrows.'
"Well, you succeeded in breaking my bow," Ciara said as she threw the bow that she had picked up back to the floor.
"You were overwhelming me with your ranged attacks," Luis said as he slowly got up from the floor.
"I thought I wasn't going to use this but you seem to be better than I first thought," Ciara said as she began to gather water in her hands.

In the woods where Luis had left Rodney, the third-year student was still lying on the floor, he was in great pain but the only thing he could do to show that was letting out little groans.
Nova had been sitting on a tree while in her tiny form and she had been watching him for a while to see if he would stand up and walk back to the academy but that had not happened.
"If I leave him here, he's going to die which wouldn't exactly be bad as he tried to do the same to an Angel but everyone deserves a second chance." She said as she flew down and transformed to her normal size. "That's the Angel belief."
She slowly walked to Rodney who was groaning in a low tone and didn't seem to acknowledge her presence, he was slowly losing consciousness.
"He isn't as innocent as I thought if he could do this to you and leave you here," Nova said. "You don't deserve this but…"
Nova picked him up like a piece of a weightless pillow and began to head toward the academy.
Serene was attending to Steve while his assistant watched the fight between Luis and Ciara on the screen mounted on the wall when someone was brought in, on a stretcher.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Another one but the current fight isn't even over yet," Serene said, turning to John whose whole interest was in the current fight playing on the screen.
"John."
"Yeah, the fight isn't over yet."
"I found him lying in front of the clinic." One of the men who had brought the patient in said.
"He's in a pretty bad condition." The other one said.
"Bad condition," Serene said as she dropped the small bottle she was holding on the table beside Steve. "Drop him on that bed over there."
The men did as they were told as they slowly dropped the stretcher on the floor and then carried the patient and dropped him on the bed Serene had pointed to.
Serene quickly rushed over to the new patient to see what was so serious about him and that was when she confirmed that it was really serious.
She had a horrid expression on her face as she looked at his completely red face.
"Did this happen during the fight?" She asked but the men didn't seem to have an answer to her question. "John!"
"What?" John asked quickly, rushing over to her side to see what the yelling was all about. "Oh my God.*
He had been watching the fight since it started and he was very sure that didn't happen in the arena.
"How did that happen?"
