My Soul card is a Reaper

Chapter 84 Barbara Spars With The Robot

Upon Azzy's advice, Claire thought for a while. As a light element user, the skill cards she can create are mostly healing cards with different effects.

The only other card she was capable to create is the Holy ground skill, which is her trump card. It's a unique skill card of her own that she managed to finish, a month ago after working hard for several years.

So, when she heard that the card won't be enough to dominate the arena, she felt disappointed a bit and thought about other cards that were single-use.

Of them, there's one special card that she remembered buying in one of the stores at Arcana world during the trips. However, as it is very rare, she hesitated.

Upon much deliberation, she finally took out a four-star card and showed it to Azzy to get a second opinion. "How about this?"

Azzy saw the images of five golden swords on the card. It was also something that was new to him. "What does it do?"

Claire explained, "This is an attack card. It will not increase my power or anything but upon activating the skill, five energy swords will appear around me which I can control each of them at a time or all at a time, to attack the enemy.

I don't have a skill card that boots my attack power or speed but this can be a follow-up attack.

And according to the storekeeper, the swords won't disappear for an hour unless my soul power gets emptied. I paid 1 million credits to acquire this card."

Azzy was stunned for a second upon hearing her explanation and also felt it's expensive for a single skill card of rank-4.  With such an amount of money, he would rather buy a gold-grade item card that can be used forever.

"Well, I think it's better to save it for a very important match. How about you focus on breaking through to the next rank..."

Claire shook her head and sighed, "I know but it's hard to cross this limit. No matter how much I battle, I just can't receive the revelation needed to breakthrough."

"Even though she has a sword, she is still a pure light attribute user. It is obvious that fighting will only make it harder for her to proceed further into higher ranks. That's why light attribute users always stay as support." The Reaper came to the rescue once again.

He continued, "Healing is the way. She needs to be in a situation where she's desperate to save someone's life. Only then, her Arcana spirit will break the wall."

Azzy fell into deep thoughts after realizing the issue. After forming a risky plan, he spoke, "Claire, I wanted to try something that might help you."

"Hmm, what is it?" She asked.

Azzy then walked towards Barbara and placed his hand on her forehead. Dark energy slowly released from his palm, "Chronos, I'm leaving it to you."

Within a few seconds, Barbara opened her eyes suddenly and saw her cousin before her.

"I guess your beast is stabilized." Before she misunderstood his actions, Azzy quickly said a few words that implied it was his work.

"How?" Her eyes widened. For a while, she tried to calm down the sabertooth tiger but it continued to run here and there under the effect of Protos energy which was provoked due to the holy ground.

"Did you forget where it is originated from?" Azzy responded with a question. While Claire didn't understand what he was talking about, Barbara, on the other hand, thanked him.

"Anyway, follow me to the third floor." Azzy walked to the corner of the room to reset the gravity before leaving the room.

Both of them continued to follow Azzy while Claire dismissed the soul skill. As for the holy ground, she can't do anything about it. It has to disappear on its own after reaching the time limit.

Just as they reached the third floor, Claire asked, "Is it really okay for us to be here? I mean this floor is pretty much restricted to us."

"Well, not for me." Azzy shrugged his shoulders and continued to walk.

"Oh! That's right. I forgot that Principal Barton is your Master." Claire let out a comment while following him.

"Principal?" Barbara looked at Azzy. "Don't you already have a master?"

She once again closed her mouth, thinking that she might have said something she shouldn't have.

However, Azzy didn't react to it much and replied, "According to Master Barton, the one-master one-life principle is of ancient age. It seems the rules have changed in the modern era.

He said I can take many masters but they can only choose one as the Prime Master who will have the highest authority on their student."please visit pαпᵈα-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

"Oh!" Both of the girls exclaimed at the same time. As a person from a distant kingdom that still follows the old ways, Claire also knew nothing about modern methods even though it's been more than 3 years since she started studying here.

Soon, they reached a metallic door that seemed identical to that of the one on the ground floor.

However, unlike the gravity room, there was also a biometric lock. So, even if one has the access card, without their fingerprints registered in the system, the door won't open.

Thankfully, the principal has long registered it. So, they didn't face a problem opening the door.

"Wow" Once again, both of the girls exclaimed together as they saw the robots that were standing on either side. "Our academy has this many robots? I thought it was only one," said Claire while looking at them curiously.

"There are three types of robots. The one on the left… these five have peak-rank-5 strength. As for the right, except for the last one, they are of peak-rank-6 while the final one is of rank-7.

I don't have access to the last one, yet. Barbara, I'll let you train with the rank-5 robot. Meanwhile, Claire and I will face the rank-6 robot. And I trust that this matter of sparring with robots will not leave this room.

Both of them nodded seriously.

"First, let's Barbara spar with the opponent…"

Azzy then walked towards a rank-5 bot and clicked on a button on the back of its neck, which opened a small compartment with a remote controller inside.

He then clicked on sparring mode while backing away along with Claire so that the robot scan Barbara and adjust its strength. If they were together, Azzy was sure that it will fight to the best of its ability.

Barbara didn't take long to get into battle stance and summon the sabertooth tiger.

*Roar*

The beast roared at the robot before dashing towards it. Barbara didn't stay still either. Even though she's a summoner, she still joined the beast as a backup.

Both of them simultaneously attacked the robot while it focused on defense.

But soon, the situation turned around. After getting familiar with their attack patterns, the robot changed the flow completely in its favor.

<strong>"Neko, use Soul skill: Fireblast"</strong>

Getting into the disadvantage of the battle, Barbara lost the patience and unleashed the soul skill of the beast.

Upon receiving the order, the sabertooth opened its mouth and conjured a black fireball before shooting it towards the robot like a beam.

However, the robot simply raised his hand and activated another defensive mechanism. The blue shield appeared around its arms that blocked the attack.

Even though the shield blocked the attack, due to the presence of Protos energy within the Fireblast, cracks started to appear on the shield before it exploded.

The situation was different from Azzy. While Azzy's Protos infected Death energy simply corrodes the energy that it touches, the Protos infected Fire energy simply increased its damage by several times.

As the attack power already crossed the rank-5 limit, naturally, the shield wasn't able to hold it on.

Looking at it, a frown appeared on Claire. Her sword spirit was once again trying to go on a rampage because of the earlier display.

However, Claire quickly managed to calm it down and continued to watch the battle in silence.

Just then, the robot spoke, "Rank-6 strength detected. Activating Berserk mode…"

*beep*

ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom Azzy quickly pressed the button on the remote and stopped its function. "Okay, it's enough for today."

Barbara was taken aback and turned her head, "why?" She was curious about this berserk mode. Claire, on the other hand, wondered whether this Berserk mode is not good.
