While Azzy is busy unleashing one of his Sage techniques, Captain Virgil attacked the heavily bleeding Izora without giving her time to use any healing card and recover. He doesn't know she was actually out of them. So, she was never planning on wasting time to summon the storage card and check it.
*Bang* Bang* Bang*
He continuously shot the plasma energy bullets at her until he emptied the magazine, intending to kill her as soon as possible since he can no longer capture her now that his cube prison was confiscated by Ramiel for the research and he doesn't have any clue about the whereabouts of allies.
"Argh…" "Graaaa…"
Flapping the wings, the blue lightning dragon did evade a few bullets but couldn't evade from all. Four bullets pierced its skin and one struck its master in the right shoulder.
The plasma energy was quite destructive, harming her soul energy and the electric force makes her body numb.
After a couple of minutes of battle, Izora could no longer feel her hands. But, she didn't lose her will. After all, there's one more skill that she has yet to use, in fact, it is the trump card of all the seven-star Arcana masters.
Just when she spotted Captain Virgil is changing the magazines in both of his guns, she ordered her dragon, <strong>"Raiga, unleash the unique skill: Merge"</strong>
*Roar*
The dragon let out a powerful roar and turned into a blinding flash of light. For a couple of seconds, she was engulfed by the light. By the time he was ready to shoot, he found Izora transformed.
She had blue dragon scales all over her body, protecting her like armor. A pair of dragon wings grew from her back and her pupils turned into vertical slits. Flapping the wings, she was carrying her husband in her left hand. At the current stage, her physical strength is equivalent to that of a high-rank-8 Arcana Master.
But, there's a catch here.
Not only her maximum SP (soul power) is still the same as before but her injuries didn't disappear either. In fact, along with the strength, she also received the injuries of the dragon too.
So, her condition only worsened.
Pointing both of the plasma guns at her, Captain Virgil said, "You made a big mistake on whatever technique you used. Now, it's even easier to kill you."
He shot a couple of plasma energy bullets.
Izora dodged them with ease and replied, "That happens when you can hit me."
She raised her hand and shot a lightning-energy orb. Captain Virgil destroyed it by shooting five times in a row. "Eight bullets were needed to destroy that orb? Previously, it was only 2. That means her strength increased at atleast five times, huh. Let's try for a few times and then, bring out the cannon."
Captain Virgil flew towards her. Izora decided to risk it and flew towards him to shoot at the close range.
Just when the both of them are only about a few meters away, Captain Virgil rapidly fire at her and she shot another lightning orb at him.
However, Captain Virgil has twelve bullets left in each magazine. And he went all out to empty them in one go.
Ten plasma bullets took out the lightning orb but Virgil who shot the last round from the two guns flew towards her.
Izora planned to evade it by free fall.
It was at that moment, she suddenly disappeared from the spot, taking Virgil by surprise.
<strong>Garcia Palace, Death Clan Village;</strong>
"Eh?" Izora suddenly found herself on a king-size bed in wedding clothes. Vesyrn was seen in a sleeping position on the nearby couch. She looked at herself. Along with the wardrobe change, there are no injuries at all.
"What just happened?" Her eyes filled with confusion. "Don't tell me everything is just a nightmare"
She quickly got out of it as he observed herself and the surroundings carefully. "No, my soul power is only at 10% at the moment and there's sunlight coming through ventilation. That means I'm trapped in an illusion."
Back to the City of Graena, after the disappearance of Izora and Vesyrn, Azzy sighed in relief as he looked at himself.
He was no longer becoming transparent. Staring at the hourglass in his right hand, he muttered under his breath, "I managed to send the both of them using 'Chrono Rewind' skill but I wonder where they were sent to."
He didn't have any specific thoughts when he unleashed one of the soul skills of the hourglass.
Chrono Rewind is a single or multiple target Skill where Azzy can send the targeted party back to their past. Of course, they won't be traveling through time but just go back to the location.
For example, Azzy just used the skill on his parents. While he didn't set a specific time but he used the maximum limit, i.e. 12 hours.
His parents went back to the location where they were 12 hours ago. Not only that, but their clothes also changed to something else which was worn by them, 12 hours ago. Their injuries were also completely healed.
But, this technique has minor flaws too.
His parents neither recover their soul energy nor were they able to use the skills again. Those were still in the cool-down period. Another thing is that his mother was sleeping 12 hours ago but since she was conscious when the skill is performed, she was still conscious even after being teleported back to their bedroom at Garcia palace.
His father was unconscious now. So, even if the timer were set two hours ago, he would still be unconscious. Nothing can be done about it.
Azzy knows that very well but for now, he was satisfied with just his parents being alive thereby restoring himself to a normal state.
Captain Virgil, on the other hand, was confused about what happened. He assumed she probably ran away and focused his attention on the dark cloud. His face turned dark, "That black rain is dangerous. I can't let it touch me. Let's wait until it disappears. Hmm, wait a second…"
He stared at the rumbling dark cloud once again. "If my calculations are correct, it has a diameter of roughly about 200 meters. With him as the center, it is 100 meters. My plasma guns don't have that much range. But, the plasma cannon has a range of 500 meters. So, I'll be fine if I just shift the weapon.
Or maybe, I can just shoot him from here. With no visibility and the sensors being damaged in the suit, it would be like shooting the target with a blindfold. Let's stick to the earlier plan.
After defeating the kid, let's take him back with me and keep him as a prisoner. He would have to face the consequences for damaging my suit."
Just after a few seconds, he saw the dark cloud start to rise high.
Instead of just flying higher, Captain Virgil flew away after he got out of the dark cloud's range. He changed the weapon in the midway.
With heavyweight plasma cannon that only recovered four charges at present, Captain Virgil aimed the weapon at… "Huh?"
There was no Azzy to be seen. There was only a black lotus and a dark cloud. "Where was the kid? Did he turn invisible?" Captain Virgil wondered.
Unknown to him, there was a housefly-sized Azzy with a tiny death scythe and a tiny hourglass in his hands, standing on one of the petals of the black lotus.
