My Soul card is a Reaper

"This is the special training chamber where our soldiers train under 15x gravity." The head of the Special Forces, Oliver acted as a tour guide to Azzy.

"You are familiar with these Robots. They mostly serve as Sparring bots for our trainees."

"This is NQ-31, a prototype aircraft which was built recently within this workshop. It is not known to the public yet. This one's speed can reach as high as mach-11.2, making it the fastest aircraft ever created.

Theoretically, it is faster than a Demi-God at an intermediate stage. We never met one. So, we don't know for sure and we also haven't tested it yet as we aren't sure whether it is safe for the pilot."

"That locked place is the storage dump where missiles and a few other dangerous explosives were stored. Most of the time, it will not be opened unless there's a huge threat."

Introducing each place one after another, Oliver finally stopped before a door with a biometric lock on the side.

After scanning his fingerprint, the door was opened and a white room was discovered with several types of machines that none of the visitors have any idea about.

"Azrael, meet the head of our research team, Dr. Mac."

A lady in a white coat was busy with her work. In front of her, there's a huge screen with unfamiliar coding continuously appear and disappear. Azzy saw she was typing at a speed where even he could only see a blur.

"Dr. Mac. We have guests here…" Oliver called her.

As if she didn't listen to him, she continued with her work.

"Dr. Mac, Azrael is here…"

The Lady suddenly stopped typing and abruptly turned around to look at the visitors.

As her eyes fell on Azzy, she let out a smile as she stood up from her seat to walk towards them.

"This is Dr. Mac. Everything that you see here was designed by her." Oliver introduced her with a simple sentence without going roundabout way.

Azzy and Affea were surprised to see this person who looked like she was from a different race. Her face is pale, she has Monolid eyes, thin but sharp eyebrows, a narrow pointy nose, thin lips, and have mushroom hair cut.

She was beautiful and weird at the same time as Azzy has never met a person who looks like her. It was just like when he first saw Jordon back when he fought Vann.

The only difference between then and now is that, back then, Azzy couldn't show his emotions on the face. So, it was alright but now, the look of curiosity could be clearly seen on his face.

Even the lady seemed surprised for a second, looking at his expression before she cleared her throat and introduced herself, "Hello, I'm Kim Yu-ri or otherwise known as Mac."

"Kim Yu-ri?" Azzy and Affea were taken aback to hear this strange name. Strange appearance and strange name, Affea wondered whether this lady was from faraway lands.

As a Princess, she has the knowledge of the world outside of their continent. She learned that the faraway lands have distinct cultures and languages of their own because of disconnection from the mainland.

Throwing the useless thoughts away, Azzy shook her hand with a smile on his face, "Hello, Dr. Mac. I'm Azrael."

Dr. Mac nodded as she moved back. "I'm waiting for your arrival for a while, now."

Looking at the military guy, she further said, "Anyway, come with me. I gotta show you something interesting."

Everyone followed to see two ordinary-looking steel gauntlets placed on top of a table. None of them find any strange about this.

The Reaper commented that those two have the nuclear energy compressed within the core just like the Sparring Robots.

A frown appeared on Azzy upon hearing it.

Meanwhile, Dr. Mac started explaining the specialty of the gauntlets. "I haven't named them yet but anyway, that isn't important. These two are a set. When equipped on the forearms and pour soul energy, they will form a connection with the wearer's soul orb and replicate to form an artificial soul orb within them.

The right gauntlet can constantly absorb the natural energy in the surroundings and store it in its core in compressed form while the left gauntlet will use that natural energy, boosting the power of skills by 20% to 50%.

The denser the soul energy, the higher the boost.

Not only that, when mastered, the wearer can also launch energy attacks or power up their physical strength without even worrying about his/her soul energy."

Dr. Mac then picked them up and handed them to Azzy. "Here, try it."

Azzy looked at others who just stayed silent. He was wondering whether he came to this facility to hide or he was here too for a tour.

Barton nodded in response, indicating to do as she asked.

Affea knew that these people won't try to harm her son, at the very least, not on Barton's watch. So, she didn't object to it.

"C'mon, don't worry. It's tested and perfectly safe. Here…" Azzy doesn't know why but those words to him sounded like a stranger giving candy to a kid on a street before the kidnapping.

"It's useless." Right then, a comment escaped from the Reaper.

Just that one comment made him realize the truth. He looked back at the lady and said, "My soul energy is corruptive in nature. It will destroy weapons like these."

"I know that. I watched the footage of the semi-finals. That is why I wanted you to try them on so that I can improvise them later on." Dr. Mac revealed her intentions to basically use his soul energy as a guinea pig for her experiment.

Since Dr. Mac was too eager to destroy her prototype… who was he to stop it?

Meanwhile, Oliver appeared to be worried as the prototype cost a hefty sum of money to build.

Azzy wore them and poured soul energy into the gauntlets. Dark energy filled the core of the gauntlets.

Everything was fine for just five seconds. After that, all of a sudden, the gauntlets slowly turned into charcoal before becoming powder and fall on the floor, shocking everyone around.

Oliver felt a pain in the chest as millions of Krocs wasted away just like that.

Dr. Mac nodded, "I guess you are right. It didn't work, after all. It needs some modifications."

Unlike others, she was completely calm as if she expected this outcome. Strangely, she no longer continued the conversation and returned to her seat, pretending to do her usual work.

Believing that she was upset on the inside, Oliver informed everyone that there are other chambers they have yet to visit.

However, once everyone left, Dr. Mac suddenly sprung up from her seat and rushed towards the black powder.

A seal appeared over her palm as she moved it counter-clockwise. "Restore."

Magically, the black powder slowly turned back to the two gauntlets before they suddenly turned into charcoal once again, turning into powder.

This time, Dr. Mac was really shocked. "My power can't fight the result affected by this soul energy. Its origins must be from Cosmos."

"This kid is more interesting than I thought." She put her hand forward and all the black powder has been sucked into her palm.
