My Soul card is a Reaper

Walchelium Elys was a former member of the church of light. He wasn't a normal member either.

About a thousand years ago, as a cardinal who was in the Supreme realm, he contested for the vacant position of Supreme Pontiff when it became vacant.

However, the Archbishops and Bishops from all the branches voted in the favor of the other candidate as they felt that Elys was a bit too aggressive in his actions, especially against dark organizations where the leader of the Church of light should be benevolent to every human on the planet including the enemies, atleast on the outside.

Once his rival became the Supreme Pontiff, a chain of events happened one after another during the next couple of decades, leading to his resignation from the cardinal's position altogether.

From then on, he was living quietly in the countryside and it's been several centuries since he became a citizen of Southern Qudour.

Presently, while hiding his real soul realm and living as a peak-rank-6 expert, he was working as the principal at Larnwick academy.

And when Azzy unknowingly harmed the citizens of the city while releasing his aura at the portal point to teach those guards a lesson, this old man got angered.

Then, he saw Azzy's undead summoning and his hatred toward the necromancers that he was suppressing for several centuries now exploded all of a sudden, making him quite ferocious.

Back to the present, Walchelium Elys rushed forward and clashed with the undead skeleton of peak-rank-9 strength. Azzy, with his Eyes of God active, watched everything in slow motion.

Hence, he was able to see an opening and proceeded to take out a gravity suppression skill card from his pocket before charging forward.

Meanwhile, at the Death clan, Qridus Garcia was having tea with his only friend in the clan, Francis Blood.

They were discussing the matters that needed to be addressed at the upcoming clan meeting.

All of a sudden, the door of the private chamber gets opened with force and a man enters the room, interrupting their conversation.

"Isham Night?" The monarch of the Death clan furrowed his brows in displeasure as the Patriarch of the Night clan didn't even bother to knock on the door and ask permission to enter.

"Any urgent news, Isham?" asked Francis.

Isham Night hurriedly spoke of the matter without formally greeting them, "Your Majesty, I received a message from Ethan Night, who is currently serving my cousin, Oakley. According to the contents of the message, young master Azrael is in danger."

"What do you mean? Say it clearly." Qridus rose to his feet with a serious expression as soon as he heard of the matter. After all, unless it isn't an ambush by a powerful expert, the Night Clan's Patriarch will not inform him like this.

Isham then explained, "All I know is that the enemy is in the Supreme realm."

"9-star realm Arcana Master?" Qridus realized that the matter is indeed very urgent. He proceeded to ask, "What is Azrael's location?"

Isham answered in a worried tone, "The young master was in the town of Sliya when he encountered the enemy. The exact whereabouts are unknown. It's already been five minutes since it happened. I'm afraid that…"

"Nothing will happen." Qridus didn't let him finish the words with a cold expression on his face. "Nothing should happen."

Soon, Qridus left the clan to go to the nearby city to use the portal point. After teleporting to the Central City in the Arcana world and then using portal point again, he stepped out of the teleportation formation at Larnwick City in Southern Qudour.

And just like with Azzy, the tourists or natives who exited the teleportation formation were going through the verification process, although there is a change in their behavior.

They were acting completely polite and understanding toward the visitors like the hosts of an event.

However, not everyone has the time to appreciate their behavior. One of them was Qridus, who wouldn't want to bother with the likes of them.

As a result, when he was greeted politely and asked about his identification card of some sort, Qridus responded with a cold gaze, followed by a warning, "move aside from my way, young man. I'm in a hurry."

Obviously, the guard didn't like the tone of Qridus. But, he clearly remembered his captain's orders. Hence, before retaliation, he first tried to sense the soul realm of Qridus.

Once he did that, sweat beads started to appear on his forehead and he started stuttering, "plea… please… do… do… wai… wait for a sec… second. I'll… I'll go and fetch our… our cap… captain."

As the guard rushed away from the spot to report to the captain about the arrival of a powerful person, Qridus' eyes suddenly fell on the guards and the other visitors.

Upon seeing the guards and the humans around, an idea suddenly popped up in his mind. Qridus changed his decision of leaving the place and instead, he intentionally released the aura of a Supreme realm.

Enormous pressure descended on the citizens of Larnwick once again. Hundreds of thousands of people felt the pressure for just a fraction of a second before losing consciousness.

As there is no expert of the legendary realm (8-star/rank-8) present in the city, no one was spared. However, he wasn't Azzy. Qridus knew how to control his aura very well.

His command over his aura and soul energy was probably the highest under the demigod realm. No one lost their life including normal birds flying in the sky and stray animals roaming around.

Sensing the situation within the city, Qridus mumbled, "No innocent life is unnecessarily harmed and the whole city went into sleeping. Now, let's bring this enemy to me. Great Granduncle said that Azrael's soul wasn't spotted in the spirit realm and likely being alive. So, it is better this way."

Once Larnwick City was covered, Qridus expanded the range of his aura. 20 kilometers radius became 50 km, then, 100, and finally 200 kilometers, covering almost thirty percent of the country's land, making millions of people unconscious.

In an instant, the whole country shook in uproar as the reports reached the capital city.

At the same time, in the town of Sliya, Walchelium Elys was in the middle of a battle against two forces. The undead skeleton was taking all the blows that are aimed at Azzy while the latter was throwing Protos Spears of rank-6 strength.

It's actually amazing that this Supreme realm expert was not only defending against both of them but also the 100g pressure inside an invisible dome that is mostly restricting his movements.

There are times when he got out of the range, but then, upon realizing that Azzy had no intention to step out of that invisible field and the undead skeleton's defense proved to be stronger to block all of his energy attacks, the old man was forced to go with close combat while trying his best to injure Azzy.

Unfortunately for him, so far, only he was getting hit by attacks again and again.

Fortunately for him, they were quite weak that couldn't even cut his strong skin.

Had Azzy's energy attacks successfully invaded his system, he would have known how terrifying the Protos energy really is. However, for the moment, Azzy wasn't really getting any upper hand while his soul power was rapidly getting decreased.

Luckily for Azzy, Qridus already made his move and his way of provocation startled the cardinal and shocked even the Reaper if one might add his view too.

"A peak stage 9-star realm expert?" Walchelium Elys quickly distanced himself from the battle and glanced in the direction of Larnwick City as soon as he sensed the power.
