My Soul card is a Reaper

*Cling* *Cling*

While Azzy was battling with the Hydra inside the prism, the dual scimitar wielder and the swordsman were in an intense battle on the left edge of the field.

With his newfound super speed combined with his lightning energy, Gideon was aggressively attacking her.

However, Hazel was blocking all of his attacks perfectly. So, neither of them is gaining the upper hand.

In the middle of the field, there was another similar battle between the two captains where Claire was aggressively attacking Alan. However, here with no support of his Minotaur, Alan was at a complete disadvantage.

Claire wasn't caring about any injuries and completely focusing on defeating the opponent team's captain as soon as possible as she didn't have much time.

Due to her regeneration ability, all the damage that Alan inflicted on her is getting healed on its own while this peak-rank-5 expert from Dragon Academy was the only one that was getting bleed over and over again.

Despite that, he still focuses on defending to stall the time as much as possible. Once Azzy is dead, the rest of the match is a piece of cake for their team.

On the left, Arthur and his Red dragon are winning against the two girls. With her wood element is weak against the fire, Mia could only try defending herself under the attacks of the Red dragon. On the other hand, Arthur was in an even battle against Snivy on the ground.

Finally, in the right corner of the field, Dove was being bullied by the raging wolf. The angered Vajra was attacking her nonstop while dodging her skill card attacks with lightning speed.

Dove was being heavily injured and no one is in a position to help her out. So, she could only depend on healing cards while being thrown here and there.

As soon as Azzy replenished his soul energy to full, Vajra didn't hesitate to unleash a soul skill.

<strong>"Soul skill: Wolf Head"</strong>

A giant wolf head made of dark and lightning energy appeared above it.

*Woof*

Followed by its powerful bark, the giant wolf head charged towards her, opening its mouth and revealed its sharp canines.

Dove hurriedly threw a skill card. <strong>"Skill card: Earth Shield, activate."</strong>

A rocky wall rose from the ground to block the attack.

However, as the giant wolf head collided with the wall, a heavy explosion took place and blasted her away who was hiding behind the wall that was supposed to block a full-strength attack of a high-rank-5 Arcana Master.

"Kya…" With her body heavily injured, she let out a piercing cry, hitting the prism. Since she was one of the summoners of the prism, her body passed through the wall and fell on the mud field.

With the area turned into quicksand by the Hydra, she slowly started to sink down. She was forcing herself to stand up on her feet.

Meanwhile, outside of the prism, Claire's energy swords pierced Alan, one in the chest and the other in the abdomen. He fell on his back as Claire created a dozen of energy swords above her.

Stepping on his bleeding abdomen, she scowled, "now, deactivate this prism right away, or else, I won't hesitate to make you my first kill.

*Cough*

Wiping out the blood, Alan laughed, "Sorry but it is already too late. Anytime now…"

"Kyaaa…"

As a familiar piercing cry was heard from behind, his facial expression changed instantly, and forcefully turn his head while ignoring his injuries. "No… Dove…"

*Boooom*

His screaming of her name went deaf as the compressed natural energy burst from all the sides of the pentagon prism and cause a heavy explosion right in front of their eyes.

"Azzy…" "Dove…" Hazel and Gideon stopped their battle and screamed for their respective friends in a panic.

"Azrael…" Mia and Snivy screamed his name while Arthur started to laugh out loud. "hahaha, I told you. Owning a platinum grade beast or not, he is nothing in front of Dragon Academy."

Webster who dismissed the Hydra at the last second fell on his back in shock, watching the enormous explosion so closely. Thankfully, the explosion was contained within the prism which cracked all over.

So, he was fine. However, his heart is filled with pain as he too watched how his teammate got caught up in it. Tears started to flow from his eyes.

Lastly, the black lightning wolf was nowhere to be seen.

Meanwhile, in the audience section, the people stood up on their feet, expressing their shock as they saw this enormous explosion.

"Azrael…" Barton also stood up, shouting his name in worry.

Meanwhile, the King looked at the Royal ancestor and both of them nodded at each other. While this 9-star realm controlled his expression, the King couldn't help but have a big smile.

This set of skill cards is only supposed to create an isolation prism with the power of peak-rank-6. However, the Royal ancestor of Northern Qudour modified the mystical seals of the skill cards before handing them over to the Dragon Academy's representative instructor.

Even the Proctor was roped into this. Of course, all he was told was not to interfere in saving Twilight team members until there's a formal request from either Claire or Sahara.

To make it work, Captain Alan already activated them and put a stopper seal on them, and handed them to his teammates. This way, it appeared the cards were his own, not breaking any rules of the tournament.

Despite the starting trouble, everything went according to his plan very soon. Within just half a minute, Azzy was already trapped inside and Alan was waiting for another minute to pass.

However, who could have expected that Vajra was lucky enough to stand outside of the pentagon prism's range and now, their team paid it dearly by losing a friend.

As the cracks on the prism became bigger and broke like glass, the smoke inside of it spread around the surroundings.

"Rael… He's alive…" As soon as the prism was destroyed, she immediately sensed Azzy's presence. Flapping her wings, she charged into the smoke.

Soon, the smoke cleared up and a bloodied figure was seen kneeling on his one leg, looking down.

Meanwhile, black spikes were around him, not letting the girl come near him. Claire's eyes were filled with tears as she was seeing his condition.

She could sense Azzy's life force is also getting dimmed by each second and so was his soul power. "Rael…" She cried in tears but Azzy seemed like he wasn't able to hear her.

With his eyes appearing pitch black, a few advanced realm experts wondered whether his Arcana is possessing him while others wondered whether he just passed out.

Meanwhile, the proctor, who was standing at the sidelines, took a step back with a look of shock on his face. "Man, this one was really a monster for managing to stay alive even after being hit a seven-star realm attack. Even I wouldn't escape unscathed facing such an attack. No wonder those people wanted him dead at all costs."

Because of the barrier, only he was able to sense the difference between his usual dark energy and this one.

As he observed the spikes intently, he felt this one was too malevolent in nature. "I guess this guy has two different types of soul energy, each for an Arcana, instead of a mixed one. Maybe, this is the one that grants him necromancy abilities?"

"Damn it…" Alan punched the ground in frustration while his teammate Dove could no longer be seen anywhere while Azzy on the other hand appeared to be alive.

The others were also mourning the loss of their teammate. Only Arthur doesn't seem fazed much.

Looking at the Twilight's teammates that are rushing towards Azzy, he ordered his dragon, "Destroy them, Grandeur."

*Roar*

The powerful roar of the dragon turned into a wake-up call for Merciless Executioners.

Alan stood up on his feet and chased after the enemies. He doesn't intend to harm but go past them and kill Azzy to fulfill his revenge.

<strong>"Soul skill: Soul Absorption."</strong> All of a sudden, a deep voice forcefully escaped from Azzy as he coughed out a mouthful of blood, making Claire involuntarily flinch.

The Dragon that was about to breathe out flames to attack the two girls disappeared as Arthur fell on his knees and collapsed, all of a sudden. His soul orb was broken.

Webster and Hazel also fell at the same time and got their soul orb damaged. Only Alan's soul orb appeared to be fine, although he lost his consciousness just like others.

Azzy then closed his eyes. The protective energy spikes disappeared and he slowly started to fall before Claire caught him quickly in a hurry and started pouring all of her soul energy into his body to heal him.
