My Soul card is a Reaper-Chapter 346 Azzy And Estella As Substitute Members?

Like several people who envy Azzy's act of killing werewolves and saving the victims, Inspector Roy was also skeptical about it.

He didn't believe in the media and assumed that Azzy might have received help from his captain but had all the credit.

And when he personally saw the thug fall on the floor after being ambushed by Azzy, Roy believed that the werewolf was also probably ambushed in the dark. His impression of Azzy didn't change even as Azzy saved them.

That is the reason he directly asked him how is he here. Entering the premises of a police station in secret is the same as a petty crime.

Azzy was offended by his tone but he wasn't doing the job for praises or something. He saved them because he was in a position to be able to.

Now that there are no more auras of death on them, he calmed down and pointed the death scythe at the unconscious burly man, "I followed him in secret because he found suspicious. After all, a rank-5 expert cannot be dragged by officers who aren't Arcana Masters."

Inspector Roy furrowed his brows and glanced at the thug. He fell into thoughts for a moment and agreed with a nod, "It seems like he came here on purpose."

Azzy then said, "He was about to detonate his soul orb to cause an explosion around here. I suspect it has to do with Jay Inkwell but you can only find it out through interrogation. Now that I destroyed his soul orb, he is no longer a threat."

"Soul orb was destroyed?" The inspector was taken aback by Azzy's statement. Using his senses, he found out the absence of soul energy in the thug. He widened his eyes in realization. "How did you do it?"

"Soul skill," Azzy gave a simple answer. Just as he decided to leave the station, Neal and Claire arrived.

Claire closed her eyes and stretched her arms wide. Streaks of light shot from her body and hit the officers, healing them instantly.

Judging the situation, Neal looked at the inspector, "Mr. Roy, neither Cadet Azrael nor are we here. This man harmed the police officers and while the inspector is fighting the criminal to save his subordinates, the station's CCTV cameras got damaged due to power fluctuations caused by the attacker's soul energy. fr𝚎e𝙬𝚎𝚋𝚗૦ν𝚎𝒍.c૦m

As a result, only half of it was recorded, which would be enough to throw him into jail and interrogate him even without a warrant.

Inspector Roy saved the end of the day and every police officer is a witness to that. Consider this a kind of compensation from our organization for the harm we indirectly inflicted on the police department."

Azzy and Claire glanced at him. The officers around are visibly surprised.

Unlike the teenage couple, Neal was a genuine captain and has an authority almost equal to that of a city Mayor. That's why he is in a position to order the police to change the story. The inspector also thought that Neal was doing a favor on them as this will save their face.

However, do they need to resort to lying? The inspector doesn't wish that but he is also a human who has aspirations.

After a couple of hours, the thug woke up from unconsciousness and found himself tied to a table naked. The inspector didn't hesitate in using third-degree torture on him to get the truth. Of course, there was his hatred towards the thug for killing his dear Arcana.

Azzy and others didn't care about it; they returned to the hotel as soon as Azzy saw the disappearance of the auras of death. As the thug revealed the truth, the next day morning, an elder of the Inkwell family who gave the order was arrested.

About two days later, the court gave the verdict, punishing Jay with 35 years of sentence, 14 years per each murder and 7 years for rape.

In this time, Azzy and Claire spent some qualitative time together, going on a movie date, watching baseball games together, etc…

Once their job is finished, they returned to Headquarters to receive their promotion badges, followed by returning home to prepare for the world league with their team.

One day before the start of world league preliminaries;

Auditorium, Eternal Academy of Arcana, Aclein city;

Seven seniors from class zero were standing at the stage along with the principal during the morning assembly.

Adam and Lark were missing on the stage as they couldn't make it to the team. There were no outsiders and the team purely belonged to the Aclein city's branch. It looked like Azzy's predictions became wrong as the academy focused more on teamwork, rather than strength.

Addressing everyone, Principal Barton pointed them, "Give a round of applause to our champions who will soon represent our academy at the world stage."

After ten seconds of applause, the principal raised his arm. As the auditorium became silent, he continued, "I'm going to announce the positions. Captain: Claire Lefeuvre."

Claire stepped forward and was handed the captain badge from the principal. Estella's facial expression didn't look good as she would have to listen to her orders from now on if she wants to stay on the team.

After a round of applause, the Principal continued by reading the positions one after another.

"Vice Captain: Mia Leveret.

Main 3: Louis

Main 4: Gideon

Main 5: Calder

Substitute 1: Estella Moon

Substitute 2: Azrael.

That's all…"

When he finished it, this time, there were no cheers from the students. Almost all of them including their own team members are confused.

Only Azrael and Estella were calm as they were already informed. Claire also heard from Azzy and has a mixed reaction. She was happy that Estella will be away but was sad that Azzy won't participate in all the matches. But, what can she do? She can't tell her boyfriend to go back on his Arcana's promise.

Meanwhile, the students started to murmur among themselves.

If Estella is a substitute, then, it's alright. They could understand because of her rude behavior but why Azrael, who was undoubtedly the strongest student who even studied at the academy during the past 250 years.

Some seniors thought that the principal put the two strongest ones at the end so as to take the opponents by surprise.

Later at Grand Arena;

"Hydra, use rank-5 Quicksand soul skill. After that, use Tornado to separate your opponents"

"Aurora, Gideon, and Calder are your opponents."

"Ruby, use rank-5 Petal storm at Claire"

"Vajra, stick to Louis and make sure to isolate him."

Flying on top of the black lotus, Azzy was giving orders to his summoning beasts, one after another as he was battling against the main members of the team, all alone.

Using the Quicksand, the four-headed skeletal serpent turned the ground into super soft, disrupting everyone's footing. None of them could properly stay at one spot to not get submerged. At the same time, they were forced to use soul energy to expel the soil whenever their foot gets sunk.

Meanwhile, the large skeletal wolf is attacking and defending against two opponents. Being a peak-rank-6 beast with no organs to get injured, it currently posed a great challenge to Gideon and Calder who are still in rank-5.

Still, Gideon was hoping to use his lightning mode to fracture its bones one after another.

It was at this moment, the Hydra unleashed the soul skill, which created a tornado and scattered everyone away.
