YM778.TV Chapter 25 Unexplained Growth.
Luis had made sure to lock his room before coming downstairs today, he was sure nobody would be able to access the room without him, but it turns out he was very, very wrong.
\'How does she even get in here?\'
Tammy was sleeping away peacefully, Luis was sure that she was asleep because she was snoring peacefully now.
Luis stood at the entrance for a while watching her while she snored away.
\'People like you shouldn\'t be exposed to all these cruelties.\' Luis thought as he walked towards his bed.
Luis was really mad with the way Tammy had treated him on his first day at school, he was holding a grudge against her and was waiting for the perfect time to pay her back but when she started to train him, he realized that she was just lonely without any real friends to talk too and that has made stick to trying to get strong and when Luis showed up, she felt like taking out her frustrations on him.
But in all these Luis could see one thing, a cute girl who tries really hard to be tough, even Luis had tried to be tough but then he realized that you don\'t have to be tough to be strong, so what\'s the point?
Luis walked closer to Tammy and was still looking at her face when she shut her eyes open.
"Luis." She said with a smile on her face.
Luis couldn\'t help but smile back at her.
But then her face went from smiling to serious.
"Where have you been?" She asked.
"Outside."
"Outside where?"
"I just went for a jog, nothing else."
"Oh really," Tammy said.
She got up from the bed sniffing the air and whatever she was smelling led her to Luis\' shirt.
"Is that fire I smell on you?"
Luis knew that he had been busted, so he needed to think of an explanation quickly.
"I ran into a couple of demons." He said nervously.
"And they almost roasted you?"
"Not exactly, I was able to kill a few of them."
"Few of them?"
"Yes, they were about twenty, I was able to kill three and then I made the run for it." Luis lied.
He was afraid that if he tells her that he was able to take down ten demons by himself, she may be suspicious of his unexplained growth or she may start laughing at his exaggeration.
"Why didn\'t you defeat all of them?" This was an unexpected question for Luis, did she believe that he could take down twenty demons on his own?
"I wasn\'t sure I could."
Tammy was silent for a while before she replied.
"Don\'t worry, continue training and you\'ll come to believe in your strength." She said. "But please don\'t go out alone ever again."
With that said, she stood up to leave.
Luis was shocked by everything Tammy had told him so far, it was like a sister looking out for his brother.
He could tell she was happy when she saw that he was okay but he wasn\'t going to let her go without asking some questions of his own.
"Tammy."
"Yes."
"How did you get into my room?" He asked politely.
"I just wandered in here, I didn\'t even know it was your room until now." Luis knew she was lying, with the way she was speaking now.
"But it was locked."
"But it was locked."
"I pushed it and it opened, maybe you didn\'t actually lock it."
Luis tried to recall locking his door today and Tammy used that opportunity to escape.
"I\'m sure…."
Tammy was already gone before he could say anything.
Luis let out a sigh of defeat and went to sit on his bed.
He still wanted to check something about his fire ability, when he thought about it the system brought all information relating to the fire ability.
[ Fire 2/20 ability points ]
[ Fire ability: Level 01 ]
[ Fire points: 50/50 ]
[ Fire skills ]
[ Fireball ]
Now he had an idea of how the whole thing worked, ability points were there to level up the ability and the fire points was related to how much he could use his fire ability in a go, and the skill fireball was a requirement for using the fire ability, this made him wonder if he was able to unlock other fire abilities.
Luis also wondered how strong his fire ability would be when it reaches level two, but to find out about he would have to fight more fire demons or someone with a fire ability.
Luis wanted to check one last thing before going to eat lunch.

He was improving for once in his life and it was all thanks to this system.
\'This really is a wonderful gift.\'
Thinking about that reminded Luis of Raph, he had told him that he had a gift.
\'Did he know about my system?\'
Luis wondered.
************
The next morning Luis woke up feeling great, he wanted to try something today.
He quickly got up and headed for the end of the corridor where Tammy would always train with her dad, since he knew the codes and how it worked now it was easy for him unlike last time and he soon found himself in the white arena room again but this time Greg and Tammy weren\'t inside the arena, they were standing outside.
"Nice for you to join us, Luis," Greg said.
"Do you mind if I go first?" He asked.
"Sure go ahead," Greg replied, and without even knowing it Luis found himself in the arena.
"Don\'t underestimate the boy Tammy."
The screen had appeared in front of Luis showing him the game level options.
He looked at all of them and decided to choose the hardest which is intense.
"What?" Tammy gasped.
"He won\'t last a second." She said.
The first ball shot towards Luis and he blocked it with his sword, he was waiting to hear something but it never came.
\'Guess it only works, when it\'s coming from a living thing.\'
With his curiosity satisfied Luis put his swords back in their sheath and began to dodge the fireballs heading towards him, he was ducking, jumping, and sliding, he hadn\'t even gotten hit once.
Tammy stared at the arena in disbelief.
Luis tried not to overdo it and allowed himself to get hit once but in the end, he had completed the level.
[ Intense level completed ]
"What just happened." Tammy looked into the arena in disbelief, while Greg had a smile on his face.
