My Soul card is a Reaper

Recovering his soul energy to the brim, Captain Eugene of team Crescent then proceeded to control the wind below his feet and slowly float in the sky.

The distance between him and the ground was slowly started to increase.

After flying for a few meters, he stopped and slowly floated forward. "Nevermatter, taking out three for one is still good."

Now that two of the strongest opponents were still on the field, he felt that it\'s time to follow plan B.

His teammates who were left behind immediately got the signal. Ellis-the healer and Elvera-the Archer rushed diagonally in different directions, leaving Barbara on her own.

Luckily for them, Claire\'s target is Barbara.

She let the other two leave and then, landed on the ground before her opponent.

Meanwhile, Azzy who just finished his quarrel with the reaper glanced at the two incoming opponents and then, at the sky. "Well, I hope this battle be worthwhile."

He stood still and waited for the two of the two girls to take their positions. In the meantime, Vajra returned to Azzy and waited for further orders.

Elvera was on the right side, Ellis on the left side, and Eugene was right on top of his head.

He wondered what their tactic might be.

Is it a formation? Is it some kind of sealing technique? Is it some combo skill?

Several theories popped into his head. He expected the Reaper would give him the answer, but as there\'s no answer from the deity, Azzy stopped paying attention to him and focused on the three of his opponents.

As if they prepared it beforehand, the three of them took out a five-star skill card where the stars are gold in color, which indicates it has the power of a peak-rank-5.

Azzy\'s eyes captured the golden stars on the back of the skill cards that were in the hands of both of the girls. He assumed that Eugene must also have a similar card.

However, only Captain Eugene was at the peak-rank-5 realm. The other two aren\'t at that stage.

Azzy wondered whether all of them have perfect control over their soul energy or whether they hold the activated skill card.

According to the knowledge that he gained from the teachings of Avia, if one attempts to unleash an attack that usually requires more soul energy than their maximum limit, their entire soul energy will become empty and the skill will be failed unless it is already an activated skill card.

An activated skill card is a type of skill card where the Arcana masters can seal their soul energy into the skill card and then present it to others where it can be used just by unlocking the seal by pouring a minute amount of soul energy.

"Hmm… It seemed like the latter." Azzy mumbled as he glanced in both directions.

As one couldn\'t use an activated skill card in the tournament unless it was created by the participants, Azzy assumed that there\'s a high chance that it might have been created by Eugene.

Azzy\'s action of staying still like a statue made Eugene furious. He snorted, "Hmpf, let\'s see how long this guy will continue to look down on us."

<strong>"Combo Skill: Four-eyes Prism, activate."</strong>

The three skill cards glowed at the same time and released a blinding light beam connecting each other.

In no time Azzy found himself trapped in the middle of an energy prism. Vajra was also got caught in it.

On each side of a prism, there was a symbol that largely resembles an eye. Strangely, it was constantly opening and closing as if it was alive.

"Now, that\'s an amazing combo technique" "Moon Academy lives up to its name" "Let\'s see if Azrael can break through this trap"

The experts curiously looked at the prism. It was unlike anything they have seen before.

The higher realm experts could also sense its power is in the peak level of the rank-6 realm, something which a low-rank-5 like Azzy couldn\'t break it off even with energy eruption, well, at least theoretically.

Meanwhile, Azzy looked around his surroundings.

​ He couldn\'t hear the cheering of the audience and neither could he see anything that\'s past the glassy prism walls.

Despite getting trapped along with him, the black lightning wolf was neither with him on the outside nor could he sense its spirit in the mindscape.

"There\'s no suppression or soul energy absorption but my hearing has been cut off and my vision was confined to these walls. I couldn\'t sense where Vajra is located either. And those eyes. There\'s something about them that\'s strange."

Just like the eyes were blinking on the outside, there was also a set of four eyes, one on each side.

He glanced at the blinking eye right below him, "Strange, indeed."

Azzy walked forward a few steps to touch one of the glassy walls to check its durability. However, to his surprise, the wall appeared to move back as he moved forward.

The distance between him and the wall hasn\'t decreased in the least.

"Chronos, a little help here," Azzy asked the Reaper to give him some insight about the trap he was fallen in.

However, there was no response from the Reaper.

"Chronos?" He called him once again.

"Hmm?" At first, Azzy wondered whether this prism could cut off his connection with the Reaper temporarily. After all, the connection with the black wolf has been cut off.

But then, as he reminded himself that Chronos is a deity who is death and time itself, he assumed it wasn\'t possible. Not to mention, he could feel soul energy in his soul orb too.

It led him to think that it might because of the quarrel they had earlier on. "Chronos is becoming more like a kid these days. What kind of a deity would sulk over such petty quarrel…"

Taking a deep breath, he spoke in his head, "fine, I don\'t need your help. I will resolve this on my own."

Collecting soul energy in his right hand, he shot an energy blast towards the wall.

It traveled for a second before vanishing into thin air.

Suddenly, a ten-month-old memory appeared in his head. It was the time when he was being ambushed by the original Leonard Light. "That\'s right. I almost forgot about it."

Pouring his soul energy towards his eyes, he unleashed the first soul skill of the Reaper. Azzy\'s eyes turned pitch black and his pupils disappeared.

<strong>"Soul skill: Eyes of God."</strong>

"These energies…" As soon as he activated the eyes of God, all the secrets of this strange prism were revealed before him.

The four eyes on each side were connected by soul energies, creating a giant invisible eye in the middle of the prism and granted an illusion over him.

Vajra was right beside him. He could see it was barking but he couldn\'t hear it nor he was able to touch it. It was as if there was an infinite distance between them despite standing together so close.

He was surprised that such a combo skill managed to suppress even a celestial grade beast like Vajra.

"Okay, I found the problem. Now, let\'s find the solution." Azzy once again shot an energy blast towards the glass.

This time, as he was observing it with his magical eyes, Azzy watched that the energy was absorbed by the giant energy eye that was floating above him.

"Released energy is being absorbed. Now that\'s a good thing." Azzy nodded in satisfaction.

Standing straight, he closed his eyes. He remembered his fight against Hydra in the illusion world.

Emptying his soul orb, Azzy gathered all of his soul energy into his bones and forced all of it outside, <strong>"</strong><strong>Energy Eruption."</strong>

It released Vajra and return to the mindscape to find itself staring at the Reaper.

Meanwhile, on the outside, Claire was being bombarded by attacks from Elvera and Eugene.

After imprisoning Azzy, all the three of them rushed towards Barbara and Sabertooth tiger pair that was facing Claire in an even match.

With the addition of three helpers, Claire found herself at a disadvantage.

So, she flew into the sky, abandoning her battle with Barbara.

While she wanted to release Azzy by destroying the prism from the outside, Eugene blocked her path, and Elvera continued to shoot arrows at her from the ground.

Under the relentless attacks of Eugene, Claire didn\'t even get the chance to get near to the prism. As she was flying in the sky, she wasn\'t able to block the passive wind attacks of Captain Eugene with her wings.

She wasn\'t able to land on the ground as there will be Barbara that will stop him even she blocks Eugene\'s attack that constantly pushes her back.

However, at the same time, Eugene found her recovery rate is remarkable and annoying. No matter how much they injured her, Claire\'s body would recover almost instantly.

To send her out of the barrier, Eugene decided to use the skill card that he was saving for the finals.

Just as he took it out from his pocket, Barbara shouted from below. "Captain, the prism…"

He turned his head around to see cracks emerged on the prism as the eyes turned pitch black. They are no longer blinking.

*Crash*

As the prism shattered like a glass, they saw Azzy was standing still with a saber in his hand. His opponents also saw the changes in the appearance of his eyes.

According to their data, Azzy\'s eyes turn that way whenever he uses soul skill. Eugene wondered what kind of soul skill he unleashed that destroyed his precious combo prison which can hold even a high-rank-6 like a prisoner.

Brandishing the saber, Azzy mumbled, "Chronos was right.  I was foolish to let the attacks trap me. But, now, I won\'t give such opportunities to the opponents anymore."

He pushes his leg against the ground and dashes towards the healer.
