My Soul card is a Reaper

The sparring sessions continued until evening 10'clock without any breaks.

Along with Mia, Azzy had sparred against Calder from grade-10; Gideon, Adam, and Louis from ninth grade.

Naturally, he defeated all of them with ease. Of them, Louis gave him the toughest fight for he was blessed by Space.

Like time, space isn't considered an attribute because of no representation of God to rule it. Because of that, people cannot awaken it solely with either of those powers.

Like Azzy awakened death along with the time, Louis had awakened wind along with the space.

So, his speed was unnaturally fast.

With Azzy suppressing his strength to mid-rank-5 so as to not upset Claire and let her throw a fit again, he found himself to be slower than that Louis.

Using his speed to increase the distance and shoot the arrows with his Bow Arcana, Louis was found to be a tough competitor for everyone.

He was the only one who forced Azzy to take the help of Vajra, the black lightning wolf; Ruby, the black crystal lotus; and Hydra, the undead serpent.

Only then did Azzy manage to distract his attention and knock him out.

The seniors of class Zero appeared to be tired by the end of the day with all the battles while the juniors were watching the battle without batting an eye.

It is the last match of the day but overall, the 36th one between Estella and Claire. So far, both of them only have three wins each with the remaining 30 turning out to be drawn, mainly due to the limited time.

At present, the match is going on for eight minutes with only 2 minutes left. A 100ft giant kite/eagle hybrid was chasing down a 5ft Claire with a divine sword in her hands.

Meanwhile, an 800ft serpent found itself entangled by its tail and is struggling to get free. Estella didn't help the leviathan and is just focused on defeating her rival.

"Garuda, fly faster." She was trying to keep her cool as much as possible.

Claire was flying away from the opponent, biding her time to recover her soul power.

With Izora setting the rules of no healing and recovery cards during the spar, everyone could only depend on recovering naturally. However, Estella knew that Claire's recovery rate will go a hundred times faster after wearing a pair of mysterious black leather gloves.

She doesn't know what they are but ever since Claire acquired them a couple of months ago, it became very difficult for her to defeat this rival.

At first, Claire used the adamantine gloves to train her body and power up her fists.

Gradually, as she get used to it, Agatha, the divine sword spirit taught her a technique where she could absorb the gathered natural energy inside the core of the gauntlets and refine it into her own soul energy to recover her soul power.

With the gloves constantly feeding her soul energy, she reduced her dependence on her soul skill: Descent of the Heavenly Guardian and the recovery cards.

But, at the same time, it took away Claire's speed due to its 1500 pounds of heavyweight. So, during the flight, she had to keep using soul energy to activate the mechanism of the gloves, which will nullify the weight.

"60 seconds left." Izora's voice echoed in the surroundings, reminding the two girls about the time limit.

"It's time to strike back, Claire." Agatha said to her host, to which the latter replied, "no, it isn't. We need to wait a bit more."

Claire tilted her wings and made a turn to the left. Meanwhile, Estella furrowed her brows. For the past couple of minutes, she was chasing but to no avail. She was getting impatient.

Seeing that Claire still doesn't intend to fight back, she spoke as loudly as she can, trying to taunt her opponent, "I guess you are trying to draw the game, aren't you? Worried about her injured? Where was that aggressive Claire who had pride in her self-healing capabilities? Your boyfriend must be very happy to see you run away like a coward."

Claire didn't respond to her and just flew.

Estella's face darkened when there is no reply but then her eyes fell on the lying serpent.

She realized that Claire was flying towards the Leviathan who almost freed itself. In fact, it doesn't need to struggle anymore for she could unleash the attack at any time, although the enemy needs to be in its range.

A thought appeared in her head. It was transmitted to the beast through telepathy. Leviathan lay there on the ground without making any movements.

Just as Claire passed the air space above the serpent, Estella shouted, "Levi, use soul skill: Petrifaction."

*Ssshaaaa*

The Leviathan's upper body suddenly sprung up, trying to take Claire by surprise. However, before its eyes fell on its target and turn Claire into stone, the latter let out a smile as she take out the two gloves, "do you think I forgot you?"

She threw the gloves at the beast, perfectly hitting its neck.

While the weight of 1500 pounds wasn't any threatening to this giant serpent, the force was enough to push its head backward to miss the target.

As Claire expected, the laser beams that came out of its eyes missed Claire and aimed at the sky before disappearing.

"Now, let's take away this snake. It irked me for too long." She took out a skill card with five golden stars behind it.

"Activate skill card: Claiomh Solais (The sword of light)" She poured soul energy into the card. Her soul energy was almost cut off by 80%.

The skill card was transformed into fragments of light before they were absorbed into the divine sword, increasing its size to atleast a hundred times bigger.

Everyone in the stands stood on their feet and raised their head. It wasn't the first time they were witnessing this but still, most of the spectators couldn't help but be amazed.

The sword gives off a very pleasant feeling just by glancing at its radiance. This wasn't a real Claiomh solais. It was an imitation based on that celestial grade sword Arcana of the past that Claire's ancestor used to wield.

"What are you doing?" Agatha was confused by Claire's decision to use the soul energy on Leviathan instead of its owner. Unlike the Reaper, she couldn't completely read her host's mind when the latter doesn't wish to share it.

"Well, this is going to be a draw for sure. Instead of trying hard for the win, I might as well humiliate her." Claire answered Agatha while swinging a giant 400ft sword of light at the snake.

Leviathan didn't even get an opportunity to dodge for this attack was too fast and in a blink of an eye, its head was seen flying in the air before the body of the beast disappeared from the material world.

"Levi…" Estella clenched her fist in anger. Soul energy erupted from her, forming a layer over her and the giant eagle.

She no longer suppressed her strength to mid-rank-5 as being instructed by Izora for the sake of playing fairness.

"Garuda, use soul skill: Divine Storm."

Just as the giant kite was about to use its wings to create a powerful storm, Izora's voice was heard in the surroundings, "Student Estella Moon, you are disqualified for breaking the rule. Hence, the winner of the match is Claire Lefeuvre."

"Eh?" "Eh?"
