My Soul card is a Reaper

Chapter 74 Azzy To Not Participate In The Tournament



"If a team has multiple members, they have to share the rewards between themselves.

Along with that, a medal of honor and lastly, a free admission ticket to any special academy of one's choice for their advanced studies.

Of course, it goes without saying that one can't choose an Academy if it has gender restrictions.

The runner-up will receive twenty million credits, a random platinum grade item card, knowledge of a unique skill card creation, a high-grade elemental crystal on their choice, a defensive armor that is sturdy enough to protect your upper body from even a platinum grade beast of peak-rank-6. They too receive a medal of honor and a free admission ticket for special academies

The third place's rewards are ten million credits, a High-grade elemental crystal, knowledge of a unique skill card creation, a free admission ticket, and a medal of honor.

As for the remaining rankings, they will receive similar rewards but of lesser quality."

The rewards stated by him almost made everyone drool as they listened to them. It is obvious that every one of them got tempted. Even Azzy was no exception.

He wondered whether he should lock the sixth seal and then, requests his master to lift the ban on him so that he can participate in the tournament but then, he immediately threw the thought away as he felt it is too pathetic.

Meanwhile, Rubin continued, "The students from the other academies will start to arrive at our academy, ten days before the tournament.

That means they will be watching your performance in the annual tournament too.

So, as long as you excel and able to distinguish yourself in the tournament, even if you didn't go to the semi-finals, even if you didn't get the chance to participate in the Champions League, you still have the chance to get scouted by famous academies with both beginner and advanced programs like Dragon Academy.

Or you might also have the chance to receive internship offers from various organizations… Maybe, even from the government too…

So, you should never lose an opportunity here…"

Everyone nodded seriously. Although Azzy appeared the same on the outside, he felt that he should work harder in the following days.

Watching everyone's faces changed to seriousness, Rubin nodded to himself in satisfaction.

He then spoke, "Lark Sandrou, you are not only the representative of this class but also the entire grade-8 comprising of all divisions. It will be your job to make sure that nothing goes wrong with the guests.

Pick a Vice-representative from another division and few other members to form a committee that focuses entirely on making sure all the students of the grade-8 behave.

During the past 250 years, since the founding of the Academy, it was the first time that our Academy was chosen as a host for such a prestigious league. The Principal will be furious if the reputation of the Academy will be harmed."

Lark nodded seriously. At the same time, he was excited, inside for receiving such responsibility.

As he sat down, Rubin continued, "Because every teacher would be too busy with the preparations, your classes will be ending by 12:30. After that, it will be your own time. Training grounds 3 and 4 are open to everyone. You can train with your senior or go on a self-training. It's your choice…"

The homeroom session ended with murmurings from the students. Not only was this classroom, but every other classroom is also in the same condition for the whole week.

Instead of concentrating on the class, everyone gets busy discussing who to partner with.

On the other hand, Azzy continues his daily life as usual.

He diligently pays his attention in the morning classes while in the afternoon, he goes off alone to the restricted third floor of the building in the training grounds-1 where he spars with the robot alongside the black wolf.

His only goal is to make sure to keep the soul energy consumption to a minimum.  One should say he's improved quite a bit, compared to the first day.

Right now, when he drew the soul energy from the soul orb and distributes it to the rest of the body, at least 10% of the energy will be consumed.

He kept trying hard to reach 5% where it can be said that one has soul energy under their control. Most of the Arcana masters, even without training achieve this result just by breathing.

A week passed away and the registration for the tournament has been closed. Alas, Azzy wasn't able to register as the principal didn't lift the ban on him.

Although a part of him thinks it is unfair, the Reaper convinced him by telling him that gaining attention isn't good for him and can get in the way of his goal.

Azzy felt that the Reaper is right. His goal is more important than some material rewards. He continued his daily life as if nothing changed for him.

A few more days later, one fine morning, Azzy and Gideon, as usual, left their dorm and started walking towards their Elite division's Academy hall.

Just as they reached the building, both of them saw a group of eight girls, who are wearing a different school uniform, accompanied by an adult who was taking to Emelia Light.

The stranger and Emelia seemed like acquaintances judging by how they were all smiles.

"Oh! Azrael, Gideon…" Emelia suddenly called them out as soon as she spotted them, nearby.

Some of the girls also glanced in the direction, she was looking at.

One of the girls was taken aback in surprise and pointed her finger towards Azzy, "it's you…"

Azzy looked at her blankly. He felt this little girl seemed familiar but nothing came to his mind.

Emelia asked curiously, "Miss Magnolia, do you know our student, Azrael?"

The eleven-year-old calmly replied, "We encountered each other, a couple of times."

She then greeted him formally with a slight bow, maintaining her manners, "it's been a while, Senior."

Azzy blinked twice in cluelessness and asked, "Who are you?"
