My Soul card is a Reaper

Even though he spotted the skill card that was thrown towards the skeleton Hydra, Azzy didn't give any orders to it and turned his head away, now that he had no use for it. After all, he summoned his low-rank-5 monster for its soul skills.

Now, he put his entire focus on Gold Lyre who was struggling in quicksand.

Meanwhile, looking at the card that was coming towards it, the couple of the heads of the undead hydra attacked it in return by biting it.

However, as the skill activated, a blinding flash appeared and blocked its vision for a while. Azzy didn't make a move and calmly watched it as the five skeleton heads are shaking their heads and collided with each other.

"Yes… Now, for the next step." After dealing with Hydra with a simple trick, Floyd took out a flying card. He intended to fly there and grab Gold's arm to pull him out.

As Floyd started to fly, Azzy then, turned his head towards Gideon, "As I promised, he's yours. Go and settle your debt."

Gideon nodded seriously as he stared at Floyd who was on his way to save his partner.

He doesn't intend to let him do that. he too summoned the gold-grade flying card that he received as tournament rewards before flying towards Floyd to intercept him.

To make sure the battle stays between Gideon and Floyd, and to show off his more necromancy abilities, Azzy took out a stack of cards from his pocket. All of them are four-star cards with the same picture on them.

As Gold Lyre is a mid-rank-5 expert, Azzy assumed one might not be enough. So, he kept five in his hands while keeping the rest in his back pocket.

Looking at Gold, Azzy mumbled, "well, let's see what this card does to a human."

Pouring soul energy into it, Azzy activated one of the skill cards.

*He he he he*

Followed by the appearance of a purple skull in his palm, a burst of eerie laughter resounded in the surroundings.

Floyd, Gold, Gideon, and even Luci flinched for a second upon hearing the laughter of the skull. Good thing it was a bright morning. The effect diminished by a lot. Nevertheless, it was still a little bit spooky.

Motioning his hand back, Azzy aimed at Gold Lyre and threw it towards him like a baseball.

"Gold, careful…" Floyd shouted while he was intercepted by Gideon at the same time.

Meanwhile, Gold Lyre gritted his teeth in frustration. As he can't recover his soul energy due to quicksand's absorption, he felt that he had no choice but to face it head-on.

Luciana, on the other hand, quickly became calm and paid attention to the laughing skill that almost reached Azzy's opponent.

She didn't intervene in the situation after finding it was only a low-rank-4, which isn't a life threat for a mid-rank-5 Arcana Master like Gold Lyre even after he emptied his soul energy.

However, in the next second, her eyes widened in surprise.

Gold Lyre closed one of his ears tightly with his one hand and the other ear was attempted to be closed taking the support of the shoulder the skull's laughter continued to ring in his ears.

When the eerie laughter didn't disappear, he started to madly shake his head while gritting his teeth.

Looking at Gold's behavior, many of the onlookers gasped in surprise. Even the students of the Central Academy that just arrived. Their instructor, Jordon, on the other hand, narrowed his eyes and observed Azzy.

Even Azzy was taken aback by its effect. "No wonder it didn't work on the Robot properly. I thought it was just an energy attack. Looks like there's more to it. I wonder what kind of trauma he is experiencing… Hmm…"

Then, suddenly, he heard a loud explosion in the sky. He turned his attention to Gideon. Floyd seemed to ambush with some kind of explosion card. However, Gideon dodged it in the nick of the time and once again, blocked his way to resume the battle.

After five minutes of suffering, the mid-rank-5 Arcana Master finally spoke up with an exhausted face, "I give up. Please release me from this hell…"

Getting the call of help, Luci immediately dashed towards the quicksand. With soul energy protecting her feet, she ran on the quicksand without getting her feet sunk in it.

Reaching Gold Lyre, she placed her hand on his head to dispel the attack.

The instant the purple energy skull hit its target and saw its effect, she realized it is some kind of mental attack.

And she knows how to deal with this type of attack too…

As Luci raised her hand, soul energy was gathered into her palm like an energy wisp. She let the wisp of her energy enter Gold's body through his head to remove the effects of the laughing skull.

However, in the next second, her eyes widened in shock. "What the hell is going on…"

She felt a type of dark energy swallow hers while infecting his body at the same time. The pace of infection is very slow as Gold's own immunity system is fighting against it.

If the attack is of a higher rank or a soul skill attack that is filled with a dense amount of protos energy, surely, it would have completely broken down its target immunity system.

However, due to the high difference in soul power, the death energy was unable to break down the molecules at a rapid pace.

At such a perfect moment, it felt the presence of foreign soul energy that's been injected into the body. The death energy was quick to swallow it and increased its strength a little bit, although it wasn't enough.

Meanwhile, on the outside, as Luci felt her soul energy has been absorbed right away, she didn't try it again and turned her head to look at Azzy who was staring at the sky where Gideon is having a serious battle against Floyd. Even after losing his beast, Floyd appeared stronger and Gideon seemed to be at a disadvantage.

Although Azzy became worried, remembering his promise to Gideon, he kept silent and continued to observe the battle.

Just then, Luci called out to him, "Student Azrael…"

Azzy's concentration was disrupted by her shout.

As he looked at her, she said, "He gave up the match. Dispel your energy from his body…"

Just as Azzy was about to step forward, the Reaper's voice once again echoed in his head, "let him suffer more, Azrael. He had to receive the punishment for the pain he inflicted on others."

"But…" Azzy tried to argue. However, the Reaper interrupted with a reminder, "You heard from your class president, right? This fellow was also with that kid Floyd who mercilessly beat up the kids from the other academies to snatch their training habitat.

And you were also too reckless for letting your friend fight that kid. His opponent isn't either an Arcana Master who is self-trained or someone with weak potential.

When you pass a judgment, a personal feud has no place in it."

"Why do you keep mentioning judgment. It's not my place to pass judgment on someone's actions…" Azzy felt even more confused. He only acted like this only because his friend fell into trouble.

Of course, he was also irked by their overbearing behavior and wanted to teach them a lesson so that others will not act recklessly but he never wanted to punish them for what they did.

He rejected the Reaper's suggestion and proceeded to walk toward Gold and Luci.

Looking at his behavior, the Reaper mumbled, "As this kid is growing older, he started to defy my words more frequently. But then again, it doesn't matter. He will learn sooner or later about the wickedness and greediness of the humans' hearts.

Once he experienced it, he will get back on the right track. Until then, I can only try my best to support him."

After dismissing the quicksand, Azzy placed his hand on Gold's head and took back his death energy. Rubbing the ears, a huge smile appeared on Gold Lyre, "finally, I can no longer hear it." He then looked at Azzy and thanked him before falling unconscious due to extreme exhaustion.

*Boom*

Suddenly, a powerful explosion was heard in the sky, startling Azzy and Luci.

*Thud*

Followed by the explosion, Gideon's body crashed onto the ground.

"Gideon…" Azzy screamed as he quickly dashed towards his friend. His body was bleeding a lot, this time as he got hit by a mid-rank-5 skill card.

As Azzy hurriedly took out all the healing cards that he had in his storage and started to heal Gideon, another grand explosion occurred, this time, on the ground, blasting away the skeleton Hydra, and destroying it instantly.

Looking down from atop of the flying card, Floyd sneered, "A trash of a mediocre academy thinking that he can match me? Dream on…"

Azzy didn't pay attention to him and focused on the unconscious Gideon. He continued to apply for the healing cards one after another. It was only after his injuries are healed did Azzy sigh in relief.

"You showed mercy to his partner but your opponent went all out against your partner, injuring him to the extent that you had to deplete all of your healing cards you got from Oakley Night."

As the Reaper's words echoed in his head once again, this time, Azzy didn't refute him. Instead, he stood up on his feet silently. Meanwhile, a thick dark aura enveloped him.

Azzy turned around, and Floyd saw his eyes turned into pitch-black once again.

<strong>"Soul skill: Spear of Death."</strong>

Instantly, a dark energy spear formed in his left hand.

"Die…" Azzy roared in anger as he released the spear.
