My Soul card is a Reaper-Chapter 385 Is Azzy Fated With Cosmic Gems?

First, their pride was already hurt because of Gideon. Cedar Ravillon's hurtful comments didn't help either.

And now, Azzy arrived at the scene.

Feeling that they were being looked down on by another kid, they felt frustrated. They aren't weak. Why do they have to receive such treatment?

Out of disbelief at the reality, both of them got the same thought, "Maybe, they should fight this kid who is also at rank-6?"

Then, what about the extraordinary speed he displayed earlier? What about his strength that knocked down their young master in one hit?

Maybe, he used some activated skill cards to enhance his speed. And Cedar was probably knocked down because Azzy took advantage of that earlier speed, converting it into an attack as he stopped. Not to mention, their young master is weaker than peak-rank-6 experts like them.

When they thought about it, everything made sense. But then again, there's also small doubt that lingered in their hearts. What if they were wrong? Then, they will die for sure.

Finally, one of them made the decision, "Brier, I will hold him back. You take the young master to safety."

"Eldwood," The other person looked at his partner who was with him for decades. He doesn't know why but he strongly felt like Eldwood Ravillon will not get alive. He wanted to stay there and fight alongside him but the safety of Cedar Ravillon is necessary. If they fail to protect him, then, their families will also be implicated.

If not for that, they would have long abandoned this sadistic master of theirs. With their soul power rank, they would be welcomed at any organization.

Everyone has something to protect. The guards have their own reasons to fight like Gideon earlier did and Azzy had his reason to punish them, and neither had the patience to care about each other's lives.

All it down to who wins in the end.

Unfortunately, for Brier and Eldwood, Azzy doesn't want to show mercy. As soon as he found one of them charged forward in the direction of where the third guy was crashed, Azzy raised his hand, unleashing a soul skill of the Reaper.

<strong>"Soul skill: Spear of the Death"</strong>

A dark Spear was summoned in his hands. Aiming at the back of the target, he threw it.

"Brier, careful," Eldwood alerted his partner with a shout and dashed toward Azzy.

Brier stopped in his tracks and turned around. He pushed soul energy outside and formed a shield over himself to protect the incoming spear with some kind of corrupted energy as it was too near to him already.

Unfortunately for him, he had no information about the Spear of Death soul skill. As a result, he underestimated it, thinking that he can block it. However, the spear pierced the shield and then, into his body. 𝗳𝘳𝐞e𝙬𝙚𝚋𝗻𝚘𝚟𝗲l.𝑐𝑜ｍ

The death energy instantly spread all over his body in an instant, eating up everything.

His body turned into a black-colored statue before it collapsed into powdered form.

Meanwhile, Eldwood reached Azzy and threw a punch powered up by soul energy. Azzy simply raised his left hand and caught the fist. With his physical body in the 8th tier of Invincible Divine Body cultivation, the attack was like a baby's fist to him.

At that moment, Eldwood saw the death of his partner. "Brier…"

He then glared at Azzy who stood in front of him like an immovable rock. "You bas**rd."

In response, Azzy clenched his right fist and punched at his opponent's abdomen with all of his strength.

The force behind the punch was so high that it made a hole out of Eldwood's stomach, destroying everything inside.

Before his death, Eldwood's eyes looked as if they came out of the sockets. While Azzy wasn't even flinched by the gory scene even though it is the first time he killed someone with his fist, his shirt was smeared by the blood of Eldwood who involuntary spit a mouthful of blood before the death.

Of course, that isn't a matter of concern. With a thought in his mind, Azzy poured soul energy over his shirt and spotlessly cleaned it by absorbing the blood before he fires it to a nearby tree.

Azzy then proceeded to walk straight.

Quite coincidentally, Estella's head was on her left, thereby, letting her become the spectator of everything that happened from the moment Azzy arrived. Until now, she thought that Azzy was quite merciful but the scene made her realize how ruthless he is.

Well, even Azzy would never imagine that he can kill a human without batting an eye but then again, he doesn't regret it either.

On the way, he constantly observed the situation through Aura Sensing. Estella stayed motionless while his heavily injured friend was shielding her against three rank-6 experts; Azzy wouldn't need more evidence than to term as the sinners.

After going past the girl, Azzy went towards the unconscious Cedar.

Upon reaching him, he summoned his soul card and then raised his hand. The Death Scythe appeared in his hand. However, he didn't attack the enemy and held back himself.

He then contacted the Reaper, "Chronos, this man is unconscious. I'm not sure whether it is moral to kill an enemy in such a state. Tell me."

"You aren't supposed to kill someone, Azrael. You are only liberating the souls that became impure due to their sins," replied the Reaper. He then added, "And yes, it is immoral to kill an unconscious sinner. But, you can inflict a far worse punishment."

Azzy understood what the Reaper is hinting at. Dismissing the death scythe, he stretched his hand toward Cedar.

<strong>"Soul skill: Soul Absorption"</strong>

Upon unleashing his most powerful skill without trying to restrain his death energy, a gush of soul energy escaped from Cedar's body and absorbed into Azzy. Once the soul orb became empty, cracks appeared on it before it was completely destroyed. His Arcana spirit also returned to the spirit realm.

As Cedar Ravillon became a mortal without knowing, his storage card appeared on the ground, beside his body. It became ownerless.

The Reaper then said, "I'm getting a strong feeling that something is there inside that card. Check the contents inside."

Azzy followed the suggestion and picked up the storage card, which appeared to be of gold grade. As he sent the soul energy into it, he saw the 500 cu.m space was filled with a lot of items, ranging from clothing and food to weapons.

Out of those, Azzy's attention was grabbed by a dagger, more specifically, its golden sheath, which was adorned by diamonds. He felt like this is the one. 𝗳𝘳𝐞e𝙬𝙚𝚋𝗻𝚘𝚟𝗲l.𝑐𝑜ｍ

Just as he was about to take it out, the Reaper's voice echoed in his head, "Not that one. Look for that red box in the corner."

Azzy shifted his attention to a seemingly normal-looking brocade box. He took it out.

As soon as it left the storage card and fell on his hands, he instantly felt its weight. His eyes widened in surprise, "<strong>This is made of Adamantine."</strong>

"No, I'm not getting the feeling from the box. Take out the one that this box is protecting," said the Reaper.

Azzy opened the box and voila, the Pendant of Selene was revealed to him. His attention was naturally grabbed by the gemstone embedded inside.

"What a surprise, indeed," the Reaper sounded cheerful all of a sudden, "Life, Water, Earth, and now, lightning. Four of the elven cosmic gems are hiding in this tiny world of the entire universe. It looks like you have a fate with them, Azrael."
