My Soul card is a Reaper

Even though Claire understood the reason, she was still disappointed by how Azzy kept it as a secret from her when it is already known to Leah. After all, he was her boyfriend and Leah was nothing but a stranger. How could he do that to her of all people?

Now, she finally realized why Leah became interested in Azzy and why she always lost to her. As if a beauty, background, and multi-talent weren't enough, do Heavens need to bless the Camelot's princess with even a Celestial grade Arcana spirit? She felt it wasn't fair.

Was she really worth of Azzy? Claire began to doubt herself as the reality hit her hard. If Azzy's Arcana spirit is a platinum grade, she might still have a chance as her Arcana spirit is already a mutated gold grade spirit. During the breakthrough to Exalt realm, she could mutate it once more and evolve her Arcana to platinum grade to walk at a similar pace as Azzy.

But, now that she knew her boyfriend's Arcana spirit is even a level above platinum grade, all of her confidence in catching up with him was lost.

Looking at her dim look, while Leah rejoiced in her heart and regretted a little bit of not telling it to her earlier, Azzy quickly grabbed Claire's hand and explained, "The existence of a Celestial grade beast is itself a secret, hidden away from the world. If it becomes known, then, people like me will be hunted down without a question. And even governments can't protect us from Supreme Realm experts. That's why even my family is unaware of it..."

"I understand," Claire replied slowly. Azzy didn't know what she was thinking at all. He only guessed one of her thoughts and explained it to her so that she understands why he had to keep it a secret. Little he knows that his words didn't dispel the worries that stemmed inside his girlfriend's head.

*Clap* Getting the couple's attention with a clap, Leah passed the instructions while summoning the Excalibur, "Azrael, you go and absorb the soul orb/spirit core. I'll handle him until then. As for Claire, you may guard him until he finishes the refining."

She didn't wait for Claire and Azzy's reply and dashed forward. Looking at the incoming enemy, Vann licked his lips, "your meat will be tasty for sure."

Since he faced her directly for once, Vann didn't play around like with the snow wolf but immediately transformed into a large beast over fifty-foot big and more than a hundred feet long.

Like a normal Galarian, it still looks a lot like a tiger but instead of blue color with yellow stripes, this Draco Galarian King was turquoise in color with no stripes and has dragon scales all over its body. It also has golden dragon wings on either side.

Most of its face consists of thick, white fur and shorter turquoise fur around its golden eyes. Golden lightning sparks are dancing on its wings, lightning-shaped tail, and two of its sharp fangs that were protruding out of the mouth until its chin.

*Roar*

Its powerful roar was heard all over the mountain range, scaring the hell out of the beasts that were living. Every beast started to run away in fear as it released its aura.

It was the first time Azzy felt such a powerful aura. Nevertheless, with the Reaper nullifying the effect, he wasn't intimidated in the least. Surprisingly, the girls were faring a lot better than he imagined, especially Claire.

He forgot that she was used to Vajra's aura and even his. So, compared to them, Draco Galarian King's aura doesn't seem much for her. So, she easily resisted it by covering herself with the holy aura.

Soon, Leah and the beast were locked in a battle while Azzy dashed towards the floating spirit core. Claire sprouted her wings and followed him from behind but as he was at his maximum speed, she wasn't able to catch up with him.

But, to her surprise, Azzy didn't absorb it. He just stood there with both of his hands on its Spirit core. Mystical seals appeared on the core as well as the dead body on the ground.

"Hmm, what is he doing?" The unfamiliar seal made even Leah glance at Azzy from the corner of her eyes.

Usually, the process of refining the spirit core and increasing one's own soul power starts with absorbing the energy in the Spirit core. As for how much can one absorb, it depends on one's potential and for the refining, it depends on the quality of Arcana spirit.

However, what Azzy or one should say, the Reaper was doing is to seal the spirit core of the killed snow wolf instead of letting Azzy absorb it and increase his soul power. He felt Azzy need powerful undead slaves to increase his battle prowess.

By the time Claire reached him, the Reaper completed the seal and mumbled, "Seal."

In general, the absorption will be smooth like the river but what Azzy did is swallow the whole river at one time. Leah was taken aback by Azzy's actions and wondered whether he was using some kind of technique to absorb a hundred percent of the Spirit core. After all, even she could only absorb 70% of the spirit core at most, and that too, only when the attribute of the Spirit core is compatible ones like fire, wind, or water.

This was also the reason she intended to split up the spirit core between her and Azzy using an ancient technique. Leah originally feared Azzy was more talented than her by a large margin, but this action of his actually made sigh in relief.

Little she knows that she misunderstood completely. With the ancient sword spirit Excalibur has also no knowledge of these seals, he could only keep silent.

Inside his mindscape, Azzy was standing on the cliff above the barren lands. He saw the emergence of bones from the soil and hovered in the air. The spirit core was descended from the skies and merged with the bones, slowly transforming into the shape of a large skeleton wolf.

*Awooo*

It let out a long howl as soon as it was born while looking around its companions. After a while, it started to move.

The smaller skeletal beasts instantly gave the way as the skeletal Wolf walked straight with its head high except for one four-headed skeletal snake.

*Hissss*

As they come face to face, it was greeted by the multi-headed snake with a hello.

*Woof*

However, it responded with a powerful bark. The wolf asked it to kneel before the King. It was a higher level and is the King of Zragos Mountains. Its soul is already departed to the spirit world. What's left is its consciousness left from the Spirit core. And it felt like the need to establish its authority.

*Hissssss*

An angry hiss escaped from the four heads of the Hydra. Obviously, as the consciousness of a platinum-grade beast, it has its own pride. Moreover, it was a senior. Naturally, it won't submit to this newcomer no matter their difference in their power.

*Woof* *hissss* *Woof* *hisssss*

Even though both of them aren't fighting and are just arguing, Azzy who was on the top of the cliff was taken aback to see such a strange thing. "Is it because both of them are platinum grade beasts and have spirit cores embedded inside them?" He wondered.
