My Soul card is a Reaper

<strong>Later that night, Elite division Girls' dormitory;</strong>

Snivy, Claire, and Mia gathered in the small garden located on the terrace.

"So, Claire, are you going to propose to Azzy, this week or not?" Mia asked her. Snivy also looked at her.

Claire let out a sigh, staring at the stars, "I don't know. We are actually good friends now. If he accepts it, then, I'll be happy but it rejects it, then, I'm afraid I'll even lose my friend too…"

"But, if you don't tell him, how is he supposed to know you feel?" Mia tried to convince her to go ahead and face it.

Snivy chipped in, "And how you will know about his feeling either?"

As Claire responded with a brief silence, Mia put her arms around the shoulder "How about I ask him instead of you?"

"Hmm, that's a good idea." Snivy also agreed with it. "For several months, the whole school thinks something is going on between you, anyway." Then, something clicked in her mind, and she further said, "Maybe, he will not answer me. He won't be honest with Mia either, even if she were to ask him directly. I mean, we have only been friends for a month."

"How about Gideon? Maybe, he is a good choice? He can just ask him during a normal conversation…" As Gideon is Azzy's best friend, Mia believed he might be honest with him.

"No way…" Unlike Mia, Snivy had doubts. Considering how he was ogling every beauty, she definitely doesn't want to imagine that he has a secret crush on her friend. At the same time, she also felt a bit of disturbance in her chest when she thought of such a possibility, although she doesn't know why.

To divert her, Snivy said, "I don't really trust the words coming from that four-eyed playboy's mouth. Who knows whether he tells us the truth or not. We can't be sure."

"C'mon, he's not bad. When was he ever dishonest? He's our teammate you know." Mia knows that Snivy was only angry at Gideon because of his interruption during the Royal Feast and doesn't mean what she said. So, she argued back.

Before Snivy gets to counter Mia's statement, Claire dropped a nuke on their ideas with her next statement, "He knows it already. I proposed to him."

"Eh?" "Eh?"

Mia and Snivy abruptly turned their heads to look at her in shock. "You did what?" "When did it happen?"

"When we visited Egrein city," Claire answered them. She neither divulged the details of the attack nor about the kiss. She just told them he listened to her sleep talk and she confessed it to him and that's why they are so awkward with each other lately.

"So, he didn't give a proper answer and you never asked him either, huh." Mia now suspected that Azzy might not have romantic feelings for her friend. Even Snivy thought that Azzy wants to be friends with her.

Both of them aren't some love experts and neither had they had any relationships until now. So, these 15-years old didn't know what to tell her friend.

As the atmosphere turned silent, Claire told them that this is why she was afraid of proposing to him for the second time.

Taking a deep breath, Mia advised her seriously, "If he already knows, then, the situation is different. I think it's better if we ask Gideon's help."

"What if says no?" Claire asked her in worry.

Snivy shrugged her shoulders and replied with ease as if it isn't a big deal, "Well, it won't be a problem as long as you stay together. If not now, then, the feelings will grow late after spending enough time."

"What if he likes someone else?" This was the biggest worry Claire has. In her eyes, there were two competitors. One is the childhood friend and the other is a perfect beauty. Both of them have a terrific advantage over her.

"We'll first confirm with that too…" Mia assured her. Claire was always being popular among boys ever since she transferred in fifth grade. She always stayed distant from them and never ever displayed any interest in a boy until Azzy arrived.

So, Mia took the matter seriously. She tried as much as she can. But, now that Valentine's week is here, she figured the time is short or else, who knows Azzy might date someone else other than her friend. After all, strength and looks often attract the beauties in this world.

Mia decided to take Gideon's help in extracting the answers to a few questions from Azzy.

The next day morning;

An hour earlier to the homeroom class, twenty-three members gathered at the Disciplinary Hall.

Before them, Azzy was standing straight with his arms to the back while Matilda sorted them into nine groups and the remaining one was told to join the two of them to form the tenth group. The sixth-grader from the Elite division seemed happy upon hearing it.

At Matilda's suggestion, Azzy divided them into 5 three-member teams and 5 two-member teams.

A ninth-grader is paired with an eighth-grader and a sixth-grader while a tenth grader is paired with a seventh-grader of their respective divisions.

Azzy then started to pass out his instructions. "It doesn't matter if you work alone or with your partner but everyone must patrol during the morning break at 10:30. As for lunchbreak patrolling, sixth, eighth, ninth-graders will patrol from 12:00-12:30 p.m., then, go for lunch. Meanwhile, tenth and seventh graders will finish their lunch by 12:30 and patrol until 1 p.m."

Everyone nodded in response, indicating that they understood. Whether it is a senior or junior, every member of the Disciplinary committee fears and respects Azzy.

And his latest punishment on the two girls from the Soul weapon division also suddenly brought a little bit of fame within the academy. It was the first time such a punishment was introduced.

Usually, such punishments are handed to first-time offenders in real society. Thinking that their leader finally started to be strict, all of them took his words more seriously.

Azzy continued, "As per the rules, we only need to focus on sixth and above grade students. The student council is also working on maintaining the order but as all of you know they don't have the power to use force but we have. Use force if you deemed necessary to stop troublemakers.

I heard that the academy building backyards, broadcasting rooms, cafeteria, and especially stairs and corridors are extremely popular places for confessions. Give them more importance.

And once the classes are over and everyone returned to dormitories, our work will be over. However, please note down the names if you ever saw a confession right outside your dormitory.

That's it. Everyone can disperse."

As everyone left the place, Azzy looked at Matilda, "Don't you think this is too stupid?"

"Eh?" Matilda was taken aback a bit by the sudden change of words from Azzy. "What do you mean?"

"First, we are trying to suppress one's basic right. Okay, let's assume that the academy is right and this kind of thing will impact the future of teenagers on their studies.

But still, we are only enforcing these rules on these seven days.

What's stopping the students to confess their feelings in the remaining 358 days?

What's stopping the students to confess their feelings outside the academy?

What's stopping the students to confess their feelings before 9 o'clock and after 3 p.m.?

What's stopping the students to confess their feelings through a letter in secret?

Moreover, how come we see many couples roaming in the academy?" Azzy was really confused about the instructions he received from the Head of the Disciplinary Committee, the Bishop that hates Azzy to the core.

Without giving Matilda a chance to talk, Azzy again pointed out, "I really wonder why the academy didn't just ban dating. Look at the student council, their president is dating my classmate. How come…"

"Alright, Your grace, President Azrael, I got what you are trying to say." Matilda interrupted him as she had enough of his endless complaining against the academy when he was supposed to support the management. "But, we are just following the rules. Let's just do what we asked to do and let the troublemakers find different ways to evade them. Now, please excuse me. I need to get to the student council's office to see whether there are any new cases."

While his vice president left, Azzy rubbed his chin, "Hmm, now that I think about it, after taking this position, I'm getting more talkative."
