Chapter 26: Training with Royals

|your pov|

     I woke up as I did my morning routine. Shower, make up my bed, get dressed, and get breakfast. Al wasn't up yet since I woke up a bit early. I decided to start cooking breakfast for everyone. I was cooking some eggs and grits as I danced around the kitchen. I started humming a tune to myself until I heard another voice humming with me. I turn around as Al was standing a few feet from me smiling. His hair was still damp as he twirled me around.

"Good morning."

"Good morning dear. What are you cooking?"

"Eggs and grits. Wanna help out in stirring the rest of the grits while I set up the table?"

"Of course."

     Al made his way over to the stove as he moved his hand through his hair, slicking it back. I felt myself staring as I quickly looked away before Al noticed. I quickly paced around the room, setting up the table as Al finished. He opened a cabinet and grabbed some bowels and cups as he served the food on the plates.
Charlie and Vaggie were the first to come downstairs as they both looked tired. I asked why they looked so tired as Vaggie explained they played board games and watched movies all night. I laughed as I told them they should probably go to bed early today. They agreed as Charlie walked around the kitchen to see what I was cooking. Charlie didn't know what grits were so I explained to her that it's popular in the South. Husk walked in grumpy as Al slid a bottle of pills to him.

"Drank too much again?"  Al asked with a smirk on his face as if he was mocking Husk.

"Fuck off," Husk said as he took the pills with a gulp of cheap booze.

     Niffy went around cleaning as usual as Angel walked in tired. He tried flirting with Husk and Al again but both of them ignored him. Everyone sat down and ate as they enjoyed the eggs and grits. Al looked like he doze off in his own thoughts as he ate the grits.
Once we all finished eating, Niffty took everyone's plates and cups. She rushed to the sink and washed the dishes.
     I checked my phone, remembering the text Lilith sent me yesterday. I sighed wondering if I'd just end up looking like a fool. I mean Lucifer is strong enough that the angels avoid him at all costs in Exterminations. Plus, Lucifer was an archangel. I frowned as I haven't used any of my magic since I fell.
     I decided to go get my stuff ready as I walked downstairs. I called Charlie's name as she entered the lobby.

"What's up?"

"I need a ride to your parents' place."

"No problem but may I ask why?"

"Lilith texted me saying your father wants to help me with my white magic along with training."

     Charlie nodded her head as she called for Razzle and Dazzle to get their family car. Al looked confuzed as I walked towards the door. I told him where I was going as he told me bye. I waved him bye as the car drove off.
     It was quite a ride to get to the Magne House. It was on the other side of the Pentagram as the car finally stopped. I got out as I thanked Razzle and Dazzle. They bowed and went back to the car and drove off. I took a deep breathe as went up to the gates.

"Who is this?"

     I looked down and saw a small box that had a voice coming from it. 'Technology is so weird nowadays.'

"My name is (Y/N) and I was invited here by Lilith and Lucifer."

     The voice stopped or cut off as the gates opened. I walked in amazement at how beautiful the mansion was. At the giant front doors stood Lilith and Lucifer. Both greeted me with warm smiles as they led me inside. Lucifer led me to a giant room as he said this is where we will train. He made his cane appear out of thin air as he slammed it down on the floor. The whole room changed into a training room as well as our clothes. Lucifer was wearing some pants and a long sleeve shirt.

<look at the top pic to see what he's wearing>

     I look down to see myself wearing a tight black long sleeved shirt and some sweatpants.
Lucifer's cane morphed into a long metal rod as he held it under his arm. He clapped his hands as another appeared in his other hand. He threw it at me as I caught it.

"Let's see what physical combat skills you have achieved in Heaven."

     Lucifer charged at me as he swung the rod at me. I leaned back as I took a hold on his weapon. I pulled it towards me as I used my metal rod the hit him in the back. However, that was before he grabbed the other end of my weapon and swung it to the side. I flew across the room as well as I did a front roll to ease my landing. My metal rod was stuck in the wall as Lucifer charged at me. I tugged and pulled on my weapon but it wound not budge. Lucifer swung at me as I pulled myself up and over the my metal rod, kicking Lucifer in the head. He stumbled backwards but jumped up and kicked me across the room. However, as he kicked me I threw my metal rod at him as it almost hit him. He stood there with my metal rod right next to his neck as he chuckled. He tilted his head before it could hit him.

"Not bad for a regular angel. I was testing to see how much you could fight but I couldn't fight against you 100% or I'd probably accidentally kill you. Now, let's see how much of that white magic you've got."

     Lucifer helped me up as he transformed his cane back to normal. He wavered the cane in front of me as it showed my white magic flowing within me.

"My my, they weren't kidding when they said you were strong."

     Lucifer observed how my white magic flowed within and around my body to see if any of it was damaged. He said it was weak and that I need to build it back up.

"But, you can only build white magic back up by doing good deeds.."

"Oh there are other ways however, Heaven prefers the 'good deed' option. Smiting other demons or angels can help you build it back up. You can use spells to increase it or weapons blessed by God himself. But the last option, is forbidden to use in Heaven. You can lastly increase your magic by absorbing black magic and transferring it to white magic. Although, it's risky since black magic can corrupt angels easily."

     I was shocked at this new information and asked what ways he suggest I should build my magic back up. He said practicing my white magic is my safest bet for now until I get my full strength back. He made a few things appear as he skimmed through a book that looked ancient. He cast a spell that would help me use my white magic easier. I thanked him since using white magic in Hell wouldn't be as easy as it was in Heaven.
     Lucifer started out with basics. He told me to move something with only my magic towards me. I saw a book on the table and focused. My eyes glowed blue as the book came to my hand.
     Next was healing. Lucifer's demonic form appeared as I felt a pain in my leg. I saw a spear through my leg as blood deep through the fabric of my sweatpants. Lucifer instructed me to heal myself. I breathed in and out to subside the pain as I focused. I mentally counted to 3 as I yanked the spear out of my leg. I hissed as I tossed the spear and it's bloodied tip to the side. I held my hand over my wound as my hand glowed a bright blue. I lifted my pants leg up to see the wound gone. Lucifer applauded as he said that was entertaining. I scoffed and smiled as he apologized for striking me. I forgave him as we took a break.
