My Soul card is a Reaper



The appearance of Qridus attracted everyone's attention, including the fire giant.

He was no longer the same person he was from more than three years ago. Qridus already entered the realm of demigods (rank-10).

As for the reason why didn't he return to the clan, it was likely because he was training to master his newfound strength.

While Ila was happy for him, the others weren't comfortable with such a situation. He was the last person they wish to attain the demigod realm. Perhaps, only the celestial elf isn't worried as they already had a pseudo-demigod to protect their clan.

Meanwhile, Qridus went on a staring contest with the fire giant without bothering about the presence of the group of supreme realm experts that gathered only to stay as spectators rather than take action.

After about twenty seconds of silence, a deep frown appeared on Qridus and he raised his hand above his head.

A giant seal was formed in the sky, alerting every expert.

His voice was then heard in everyone's ears like a whisper of a dying old man on the deathbed, "I'm sealing this place. Everyone except for Ila, leave if you want to live. You have five seconds."

As soon as his words ended, without any hesitation, every expert nearby rushed away from there. 

Vesyrn was no exception either. He too rushed away from the battlefield, listening to the orders of his great-grandfather.

However, just as he was about to leave, he saw a woman petrified as she was watching the fire giant while the others escaped for their lives. She looked like she passed out while standing with her eyes open.

He immediately changed his direction and grabbed her arm before dragging her away. 

Flora suddenly got to her senses and saw that a stranger was taking her away. She tried to get away in reflex. 

And that momentary resistance caused Vesyrn to lose his focus and they ended up crashing into the stands. 

It was at this moment, the seal was finished. Without a glance at his descendant, he simultaneously pointed his left hand in Vesyrn's direction.

A ball of energy, looking like a bubble, was shot toward him.

It enveloped Vesyrn and Flora as the entire arena was sealed by a similar-looking dome.

The fire giant didn't take any action as it wasn't attacked yet.

Qridus' voice then resounded across the arena, "Domain: Law of Equality."

Upon his words ended, a mysterious force was released within the domain and enveloped the fire giant, Qridus, and Ila. Vesyrn and Flora were unaffected because of the bubble around them.

Finding herself on top of Vesyrn, Flora's eyes met his at a close range. She blushed and quickly got onto her feet. As Vesyrn followed suit, both of them became spectators.

Meanwhile, Ila felt an overwhelming surge of energy inside her.  The ever-silly smile on her face was replaced with shock. "Did I make a breakthrough or something?" She wondered out loud.

Qridus answered, "This is my domain, Ila. The law of Equality. When I invoke the law, everyone in my domain will be forced to have equal strength. Either everyone has the same power as the strongest or the weakest. A 50-50 chance. But, not everyone had the capacity to hold the strength of a demigod. You are the only one who fits the bill in that bunch."

"No wonder." Realization dawned upon the pink-haired little girl as she glanced at Vesyrn and Flora from the corner of her eyes. "So, it is a protective shield, huh."

There are two types of domains. The first type is the rule-invoking domain where the demigods will put any type of rules within the domain which have to be followed by everyone. It is usually exclusive to Arcana spirits.

The second type is the law-invoking domain where the demigods will apply the great laws of the universe which will be followed by everyone in the domain. If one's mastery is high enough over the laws, they can exclude some people just like how Qridus saved Vesyrn and Flora from the effects of the domain. This is exclusive to Arcana Masters and other divine beings.

Qridus then continued, "Ila, look over them for me. And look for an opportunity for the finishing blow."

The leader of Abel Tower obeyed his instructions and flew toward Vesyrn while Qridus started his offense against Surtr.

Meanwhile, inside the multilayered domain, Fenrir and Jormungandr teamed up against Azzy while the others stayed as spectators as they aren't sure whether they can involve in the fight now that their soul orbs were sealed.

Snivy also got away from Azzy as far as she can, feeling that she will drag her friend down.

Radagast Starhelm, the supreme realm expert, decided to assist Azzy after seeing him in complete defense mode and still getting beaten up, not that he was getting injured in any way.

The jewel of life is keeping him alive and the two demigod realm beasts somehow lacked the physical strength to kill him in one blow as the Death clan's heir reached tier-9 divine physique, just a while ago.

In return, Fenrir and Jormungandr were the ones getting injured by the jewel of lightning but they stubbornly stayed aggressive, knowing that Azzy would eventually lose the stamina to use the cosmic jewels as they would take a heavy toll on his body for sure.

Radagast knew that he lacked the strength to go against them. Hence, he went on conjuring a great seal at a slow pace.

The beasts of Asgard didn't pay too much attention to him for he is nothing but an ant in their eyes and also due to the fact that they don't have the knowledge of sealing techniques.

When Azzy learned of the sealing technique name from the Reaper, he stopped thinking about counterattacking for the moment and focused on dodging and defending only.

As the great wolf is the one that has a grudge, he made sure to focus on blocking its attacks through the jewel of earth and ignored the world serpent that kept on attacking his vitals, but not with enough force as it doesn't want to kill Azzy.

This way, despite getting pierced in almost every location in his body and then instantly healed by the jewel of life, Azzy took control of the battle.

Fenrir's rage only increased further and he was roaring at his brother to open an opportunity for him to injure his enemy.

This went on for the next three minutes. While the beasts were at their peak, Azzy felt like his movements became a lot heavier due to the toll on his body. The time limit between each attack from the Jewel of Lightning has increased considerably. His vision became a little blurry. Even the instant healing is no longer instant. From an instant, it increased to a fraction of a second.

In such a situation, he should start getting nervous, but strangely, Azzy wasn't afraid. If anything, he was smiling inside as he was looking at the beasts.

"Raaaa"

As the great wolf collided with his shield for the nth time and Jormungandr attacked his legs, tripping him up, Azzy fell on his back and saw the wolf lunge at him with its claws.

Azzy, this time, missed the timing and the wolf's claws finally pierced his chest and the beast pushed its claws deeper to reach out for his heart.

Looking closely at the beast, Azzy thought, "Its aura is getting thicker. The time is getting near. Let's not attack this time and go all out at the right time."
