Well well well, and just as I thought Michael was done taking chances the man said this in a sarcastic tone he stood in front of us arms crossed, the names Gabriel he proclaimed and I have been instructed to whip you two mortal losers into shape but who knows maybe she saw something I didn’t… unlikely! As he finished he drew a axe from his back it spun into the palm of his hand effortlessly, so then get ready! Me and Chavez drew our swords, the man was fast as soon as we drew his axe connected with my blade I could see the look of anger on the man’s face and with a unrivaled force he sent me flying into a wall he then spun and hit Chavez’s blade with a overhead strike making him drop to a knee, really? The man stated in disbelief, is this really the best she could send to me, you two scumbags should have never even got an audience with her if this is your best. I pulled myself out of the wall and stood on my feet raising my blade once again, cocky bastard! Gabriel launched at me as I met his challenge with my own charge the metal clashed sending echos around the room he once again pushed against the blade getting ready to launch me, Chavez! I yelled his name right as Chavez jumped up behind him swinging his sword, the look of shock on Gabriel’s face was priceless he had to duck to avoid being hit before he jumped back looking at us, he reached to his back before he drew a second axe one in both hands now, he had a bloodthirsty smile on his face he charged us both, we both charged back the blades clashed with each other I got a cut on my arm, Chavez shirt was torn, we both slammed our sword on his axes pinning them to the ground we both went in to throw punches at Gabriel, Gabriel took a defensive stance and began to block and parry our attacks Chavez kicked his shin making him stumble as I punched his face Gabriel began to turn red as he punched me in my gut making me fall back I swept his legs making him fall to the ground Chavez stomped on his chest Gabriel used his hands to jump up kicking the side of Chavez’s head I grab onto Gabriel holding him I thought I had him until he grabbed onto my shoulders and threw me over him slamming me on the ground then kicking the side of me launching me into Chavez we both stumbled back onto our feet, Gabriel laughed what the hell is it with you two? You’re still standing? He laughed again before he clapped his hands, you two pass for today at least he retrieved his axes before putting them back on his back, things continued like this it felt like weeks were flying by around two months of time had pasted daily training weather it was combat training or learning he taught about demons weak points and showed us holy bullets blessed to penetrate the tough demon body we learned about the current demon sighting, patterns and formations after a while it seemed like Gabriel was putting up a front at the start trying to discourage us but after a while he began to treat us with the respect he showed to other angels we even joked around during training while we were training he taught us the importance of understanding power on how blessed humans, angels and demons basically level up with combat experience, training, and actively fighting he explained that we could use a power called dictate to see if we should engage in certain situations it allowed us to see the energy our opponents emites compared to our own giving indicators on how likely victory was and after that we realized Gabriel was holding back, a lot, a sudden alarm rang in the training hall one of the demon groups was attacking a angel outpost set up to protect humans in the end we were given the green light to engage and geared up me and Chavez had to use artificial wings as we did not have any and Gabriel led his own group out to combat the demons we followed close and flew out of the angel base our first strike back began now.
