My Soul card is a Reaper

The sparring lasted only for five minutes, shorter than even Claire's. Nevertheless, it was enough for a Supreme Realm expert like Aurelia to analyze his battle techniques.

"You know many techniques and some of them are even lost in history but there are two problems." As Azzy sat down to recover his soul energy, she said while raising three fingers, "One, your soul power expenditure is higher as you still haven't achieved perfection, much less mastery. Two, you haven't mastered those techniques either. And three, you waste too many moments. They won't be a problem against weaker or equal opponents. But, if it is a stronger one, your weaknesses will be taken as an advantage. In simple terms, your power is too raw and needs to be polished."

Azzy has long discovered these problems. So, he wasn't surprised a bit. Still, to respect her position, he nodded, indicating that he understood.

Aurelia then made a plan for both of them. For the next seven days, training will be started at 6 in the morning and will be finished at 6 in the evening. During that time, Azzy was told to constantly spar against her while using soul energy and keeping his undead pets around all the time.

Meanwhile, Claire was told to spar against Leah, believing they would learn from each other despite the difference in their strength and Arcana spirits.

Leah immediately agreed with it as she believed it's a perfect opportunity to prove to her teacher that she was better than her in every way. Maybe, she could also make Claire see that she isn't worthy of Azzy and break their relationship?

Of course, the latter wasn't her main objective but if it can be achieved, then, there's nothing wrong with trying.

"Follow me," Leah said with a smile and walked away. Claire and Azzy nodded to each other before following her training partner. Syllia also left Azzy and went after her sister.

The ground they just sparred was just a flat ground before the entrance to the cave, which leads to the real training ground built inside the hollow mountain.

pαпdα Йᴏνê|,сòМ The training ground was constructed in a dome shape. There's another barrier over it, ensuring to protect the people from the possible collapse of the mountain.

When Claire reached the place, at first, her attention was quickly grabbed by two demonic statues that are standing at the entrance. Both of the sisters felt something wrong with them but their attention quickly shifted towards an intense high-speed battle going on between a handsome young man and a beautiful yet aggressive young woman who have a lot of features common between them.

Both of them wore typical soldier armor and have heavy swords in their hands. Neither of them is using soul energy nor does the battle seem like it was tilting in someone's favor.

Both of them are at peak-rank-7 and they were so fast that Claire could only see blurry figures even at a 20g surface like this. She was stunned as a result. Unknown to her, even her elder sister Syllia seemed to be shocked.

"Uncle Celus, Aunt Cynthia." As Leah shouted their names, they stopped their battle for a moment and turned their heads towards the entrance. Both of them were taken aback, although for two different reasons.

"Hey Leah, when did you get back?" Prince Celus smiled widely as soon as his eyes fell on his niece. On the other hand, Princess Cynthia looked elsewhere, more like towards someone else.

Then, as Prince Celus' eyes shifted towards the sisters, he was attracted towards Syllia at first sight but managed to keep it hidden and asked, "Leah, who are they?"

"Oh, this is Claire Lefeuvre and she's Syllia Lefeuvre. They are our guests." Leah replied in a plain tone without attaching importance to them before she added, "there's someone else I would like to introduce to you but Royal Teacher is currently busy training him."

"Royal Teacher? Seriously?" This piece of information surprised him a lot as he knew this Supreme Realm Expert usually doesn't take students unless they were extremely gifted.

However, Celus didn't think too much about it and focused on the busty woman who was standing just a few feet away from him and took an initiative to greet her. "Please to meet you. I'm Celus Pendragon, Lieutenant General of Southern Corps."

"Hello" Claire greeted him with a slight bow. However, Syllia on the other hand didn't bother returning the greetings and directly spoke to the lady in armor, "It's indeed a small world, Cyn. No, my bad, it's Ms. Cynthia Pendragon."

"Syl, I…" Princess Cynthia blurted out, displaying her shock before she forced herself to calm down. "It's been a while, Syllia."

Even Leah was taken aback for a second and couldn't help but ask, "Aunt Cynthia, do you two know each other?"

She glanced at Syllia and nodded, "You can say we are acquaintances."

Syllia narrowed her eyes in response but stayed silent. Meanwhile, Claire wondered whether there's some kind of complicated history between these two. After all, mere acquaintances or even normal friends won't call someone with short names.

Leah was also intelligent enough to understand it too but since it has nothing to do with her, she didn't probe the matter further and told them Aurelia's instructions.

Upon hearing that the training ground is now reserved for them, Cynthia thought of exiting the place as she was uncomfortable with Syllia's presence. However, Prince Celus thought differently. With Claire and Leah sparring, he figured that Syllia will be alone. That means he can give her company.

Having his own intentions, Celus gave an excuse that he too wished to see his niece's improvement.

"Princess Syllia, I have a set of chairs in my storage card. So, we can sit there in a corner to not disturb the kids. They need space to spar to their content." As Celus attending to her like a gentleman with other intentions in his mind, Syllia followed him in silence while glancing at Cynthia's back from the corner of her eyes until the princess disappeared from her view.

With all the training ground to themselves, Claire and Leah stood far away from each other while taking out their respective Arcana and pour soul energies, making them glow in purple and golden aurae respectively.

One is a celestial grade sword, the symbol of authority while the other is only a mutated gold grade sword and yet, the divinity/holy aura it was emitting doesn't seem inferior to that of Excalibur's aura.

Once again, the spirit of Excalibur felt strangely familiar with the sword Claire was holding and saw a silhouette of a person that he knew from the past but it quickly put away its thoughts as Leah charged forward, starting the battle.

Claire, who was already feeling a lot of pressure due to extremely high gravity, didn't hesitate to unleash her golden wings once again.

*Cling*

Within no time, both of the swords clashed. Naturally, Leah used peak-rank-5 strength in her attack. So, Claire couldn't completely block the first strike. She slid a couple of meters away before she flapped her wings to fly above and then, dashed towards the opponent.

This time, Claire was on offense. However, Leah successfully blocked the attack with a smile.

"Do you want me to suppress my soul power to match with yours? A battle between unequal strengths is no fun, you know." Leah said to her. Her intentions were clear. She was indirectly stating that she is superior in strength and Claire is inferior.

Claire also understood the same. In fact, her thoughts were even one step ahead, thinking that this girl was trying to mock her.

Her anger increased a little bit. Suddenly, the golden wings suddenly spread wide and flapped in a reverse direction, pushing Claire forward and give her additional force.

Leah found herself pushed back a few steps before she used soul energy on the bottom of her feet and stopped.

"Those wings were indeed useful." Celus praised Syllia's sister to leave a nice impression. But, Syllia was unmoved a bit. She shrugged her shoulders as if it wasn't a big deal, "ability to use wings runs in our family."

"So, that means you can also fly like your sister? You know with wings?" Celus asked her, trying to prolong the conversation now that he found some topic to chat with her.

"That's obvious," Syllia replied in a plain tone, clearly not interested in talking with him. Her eyes were fixed on Claire.

Celus didn't give up and thought of something else. His sister came to his mind. He asked, "Say, how do you know my sister?"

"Oh, we dated once." Truth slipped out of Syllia mouth before realization dawned upon her and she tightly closed her eyes.

"You what…" Celus screamed in shock as he stood up from the chair.
