BXBX NOVEL Chapter 281 Going Easy
The fight between Ace and Christine was still going on in the arena.
The fight was lasting this long because the two seemed to be equally matched without their abilities.
Ace wished he could still do the wild wind blast two or three more times but his wind points weren\'t even enough for him to do it again, he had to wait to recover some of his wind points and that took time whenever he was fighting.
The fight had turned to a no-ability fight as Ace had put his ability on mute for now and Christine had refrained from enhancing her whips.
Ace was doing his best to avoid and block her whips but he wasn\'t doing great as he had gotten hit a lot of times.
The only advantage Christine had over Ace in their current situation was that she could attack him from a distance with her long whips while the only thing he would do was try to defend himself.
She flung both of her whips towards him and just as he raised his scythe to block the whips, they wrapped around the scythe.
Now Christine was trying to pull his scythe away from him but he wasn\'t going to let go of it that easily as he kept a firm grip on it.
Christine had planned to wrap her whips on the scythe and just yank it away from him, but things didn\'t go the way she planned.
She may have proven to be the more skilled fighter out of the two but when it came to raw strength, Ace owned her and he was proving it by pulling her forward with the help of her whips wrapped around his scythe.
Christine was struggling to stop herself from being pulled forward but it just wasn\'t working.
She let out a muffled groan as a purple glow began to spread to her whips.
"Uh oh." Ace said as he saw the flow heading towards his hand.
He quickly let go of his scythe as he knew what was about to happen and just as he let go of the spear, Christine yanked it back until it had hit the wall behind her.
As soon as the scythe had hit the wall, the purple glow on her whips died out as she pulled her whips in front of her.
\'I have to find out what that ability is called.\' Luis thought with his eyes fixed on the screen.
"You know taking away my scythe doesn\'t make this fight any fair." Ace said slowly moving backward.
Christine didn\'t say anything as she flung both of her whips towards him.
Ace quickly thrust himself up with his wind ability but before he could go far, the tip of one of the whips wrapped around his leg.
"Oh no." Ace said in despair as he looked down to see that particular whip had taken a purple glow.
With the whip wrapped around his leg, Christine smashed him into the arena floor before pulling him closer.
While he was being dragged on the floor, Ace raised his gaze to see that none of the whips were covered with a purple aura.
He formed two wind blades on his hands and quickly thrusting himself up a little he slashed down on both of the whips from a good length.
The wind blade didn\'t entirely cut those parts of the whips but a pull was all that was needed to make them snap and Ace was very much aware of that.
He pulled himself forward with his wind ability as the whips snapped leaving a horrid look on Christine\'s face.
"He should have done that a long time ago," Orah said.
Now we\'re even." Ace said as he dropped to the floor.
"Yeah, even," Christine said as she looked at her broken whips on the floor before they slowly turned to ash and vanished.
She didn\'t move for a while with her eyes fixed on the spot where her whips had vanished.
\'Is she okay?\' Ace wondered as he was hesitant to attack.
Her body began to take a light purple glow before a stream of purple glow shot out from her hand until she had another pair of whips but you could tell these ones were going to be stronger.
[ Aura vision activated ]
With his aura vision, Luis could see that the purple aura was flowing through every part of her body instead of flowing through one channel like the time she had fought Monica.
\'The ability just changed her aura from yellow to light purple.\' Luis thought.
Ace knew things had taken a whole new look after Christine had raised her head to reveal the purple glow in her eyes.
"We were never even Ace." She said as she rushed towards him.
The purple glow around her body had died out but she still had the energy whips in her hand.
Ace tried to blast her back with a wind blast but before the wind blast could get to her, the energy whips in her hands vanished as she blasted herself up with some kind of energy blast to completely avoid the wind blast.
Ace tried to send out a wind slash this time but before he could swipe his hands, she blasted herself forward with the purple energy coming out of her hands to deliver a kick on Ace\'s stomach which sent him flying backward until he tumbled on the ground.
Ace had fallen on his face and when he turned to get up, he could see Christine standing over him.
"Have you been going easy on me?" Ace asked as that was the possible explanation for what he had just witnessed.
"Yeah, and it would have stayed that way if you had not broken my whips," Christine said.
"Oh," Ace said, pulling both of his hands forward.
Christine noticed his hand movements and had an idea of what he was about to do.
"I\'m not letting you do that." She said as she delivered a kick to his head to knock him out.
"Alright after what seemed like a tough battle at first Christine Lome has qualified as one of Crockel academy\'s fighters for the tournament." Lieutenant Kate said.
"I can\'t believe she went easy on me and was still that strong," Monica said.
"These first-year students are surprisingly strong," Tammy muttered to herself.

Nova was still in her apartment getting ready to head to the arena.
She walked out of her bedroom putting on a red shirt, a pair of black trousers, and black sneakers to go with them.
She walked into her living room and looked around before turning back to head to the bathroom.
You could tell by the look on her face that she wasn\'t exactly herself that morning.
She walked to the bathroom and turned to the mirror placed on the wall above her sink.
She placed her hands on the sink and stared at herself through the mirror as certain thoughts were beginning to go through her mind.
\'Did Miles somehow end up in the transition world?\' She thought.
She has been getting this feeling that Luis was Miles\' son since she learned that the young Angel\'s last name was Miles but….
\'How would the son of a human and an Angel become an Angel?\' She thought.
Michael had told her of the way Luis had become an Angel which she still didn\'t understand so she summed it up with the theory that the boy had always been an Angel and just never knew it until he arrived here.
The reason why she also concluded that Luis was the child of a human mother was that by the time Miles had gone missing in heaven no one else went missing, it was only him.
"I don\'t know how you were able to do it Miles but I just hope you show up from wherever you are hiding on time to take care of the trouble you\'re putting this young Angel into," Nova said.
