My Soul card is a Reaper

542 The might of Fenrir (part-2)



"Vajra, I activate the hidden skill: Merge" "Ruby, unleash the soul skill: Crystal Armor" "Numen, protect the students."

As the cosmic being (Jinn) was called by his name, which is a rare event, he saluted like a soldier, "Consider it done, master."

The Jinn flew toward the teenagers who were stupefied for a moment.

Meanwhile, the black lightning wolf transformed into specks of black light and disappeared into Azzy. Nothing has changed in his appearance except for the black gem on his forehead and his pupils turned yellow like that of Vajra's.

Then, the soul skill of the little humanoid creature with black lotus leaves as its hair was activated.

Except for the eyes, nose, mouth, and forehead, Azzy's entire body was covered by black-colored crystal as a result.

"Wow," Raydon couldn't help but exclaim while the rest of them had their attention on Numen, the jinn.

Looking at Fenrir which was still in the middle of gathering energy in its mouth, Azzy brandished his death scythe while raising his other hand. He started absorbing the natural energy from outside the domain and simultaneously expanding the shield. 

By the time Fenrir finished his preparation, a huge wall of natural energy was conjured before Azzy and his students.

Fenrir didn't care and proceeded with the attack.

Azzy expected it would be some kind of concentrated beam of energy but instead, it spat spheres of energy at left and right. As they softly landed on the ground, the spheres of energy quickly were transformed into four clones.

"Clones?" Just as Azzy was taken aback by Fenrir's move, it opened its mouth once again and started gathering the energy. All of them also opened their mouths at the same time, replicating the original's move.

Azzy didn't intend to sit there and let them multiply more in numbers. Passing through the translucent barrier, he charged forward to deal with Fenrir when it was vulnerable.

However, this time, the casting time of the skill didn't take that long. In fact, all it took was mere 1.5 seconds. And the skill wasn't cloning either.

Instead, concentrated beams of energy were spat out by Fenrir and his four clones at the same time.

Azzy was forced to defend against one of them by blocking it with the death scythe. The energy beam from the original Fenrir struck the blade of the death scythe and disappeared.

He blocked it but paid the cost. Cracks appeared all over the blade of the death scythe. 

In the meantime, the four energy beams struck the translucent wall and made holes out of it. 

Of the four deflected energy beams, one of them happened to make its way toward a student named Layla but thankfully, she moved back in reflex while screaming.

As a result, the energy beam landed just an inch away from her feet. A fist-sized hole was formed with atleast 10m depth.

The confidence they slowly boosted themselves for the last five-six seconds crumbled in an instant as they feel like they weren't a match for the one that even their teacher's barrier cannot defend against. 

Fortunately for them, they have two guys who truly don't fear death and a guy with leader material.

Julius shouted, "Don't waste any time, guys. If we had to die, then, we should atleast give everything we have got. Now, the earth-attribute users, all of you must unleash the soul skills to erect a giant wall. The water-attribute users, all of you must work together to create another wall behind the rocky one. If we can't block them, we can deflect their path. Those with other attributes, all of you must work together to create a barrier made of soul energy, finishing our three-layer protection. 

I don't know whether our soul energies could merge or will go against each other as per norm but they were a part of us and carry our willpower. If we can trust each other and work together, why can't they? C'mon, form the groups and get to work without any unnecessary thoughts.

How should I call you, mister?" Julius turned to the Jinn, who was floating nearby. 

"Numen," the jinn answered.

Julius then asked him, "Mr. Numen, is there any way you can help us?"

The Jinn replied in his deep masculine tone, "My master ordered me to protect all of you. I will do that in any way I can. But, I'm not an Arcana Master who can provide you any soul energy. I can either punch or use my soul skills."

"Then, can you keep an eye on deflected energy beams and unexpected attacks? We aren't fast enough to react to them." Julius asked for his assistance, to which, the Jinn nodded.

"Good." Julius let out a smile and turned to his 4 o'clock, "Now, Raydon, you are the strongest of… Hmm?"

As Julius was busy planning his moves and turned toward the strongest student of the group, he realized that the boy is missing.

Raydon left them as soon as he saw the barrier couldn't stop the energy beams of Fenrir.

With a dagger in his hand, he jumped out of one of the holes in the translucent barrier before they were covered up by the self-healing ability, and he dashed toward one of the four clones of Fenrir.

Meanwhile, Azzy poured his soul energy into the death scythe and it took almost 20 million SP (soul power) to heal its blade. Combined with the rapid consumption of the Arcana spirits and a soul skill, his SP was downed from 101 million to 68 million.

Of course, there are enough recovery cards in his soul card that he need not worry about the consumption of soul energy but for some reason, he felt like they might not be enough.

As the death scythe was instantly healed by his soul energy, the Fenrir commented, "Heh, it looked like you won't down without a proper fight. But then again, it is what I want too. If you fall too easily, my heart wouldn't be at ease."

The wolf charged forward. Azzy tightly gripped the death scythe's handle as he didn't have the time to put his focus on what was happening behind the barrier he conjured and what those four clones of Fenrir were doing right now.

However, just as Fenrir almost reached him, Azzy suddenly sensed the presence of a peak-rank-5 near him.

He instinctively slightly turned his head left and glanced at the figure from the corner of his eyes. Raydon was seen just a foot away from a Fenrir's clone and he was trying to thrust the dagger into the wolf's head.

"You idiot, getaway," roared Azzy and lose his focus for a moment. The Fenrir attacked him with claws. In reflex, he was forced to defend himself with the crystal arm.

With his thick skin reinforced by the Vajra's merge and crystal armor, he thought he would be fine with physical attacks but didn't expect hooks like Fenrir's curved claws to be too powerful for him.

Fenrir's claws were dug into his wrist before they tore everything in their way as they got out of his hand.

The result?

Except for the thin layer on the bottom, the rest of the wrist was torn and looked as if his hand was going to be separated from the rest of the arm.

"Ahhhhh" Azzy let out a painful scream while kicking its underbelly at the same time. Fenrir blasted for a few meters and landed on the ground while the blood started flowing out from Azzy's almost severed hand like a river.

At the same time, a sharp and long horn like that of a unicorn suddenly protruded out of the clone of Fenrir and pierced Raydon in the abdomen. He spat out a mouthful of blood while his dagger with a white blade left his hand and fell to the ground.
