Chapter 114: 114: A human skeleton?

Flapping her wings, Sylvia stared at Azzy with a frown on her face. Clearly, her Arcana spirit hates Azzy and the aura that was around him.

Meanwhile, Floyd wiped off his sweat, "That was a close call." Looking at the Giant golden shield and the winged lady before him, he bowed slightly and cupped his fists, "Thank you, Elder." 

Not paying attention to the person behind her, Sylvia paid attention to the audience. 

Her voice reverberated in the surroundings, "I apologize for intervening in the match. I don't know what kind of duel is this but having the death of a student at the venue when Champions League is around the corner isn't good."

After stating her opinion, Sylvia glanced to the side and spotted Luci standing aside in the middle. She immediately guessed her role. "Are you the proctor for this match?" She asked.

Luci nodded vigorously. She doesn't dare to be careless in front of this person who seemed to possess a similar amount of soul power as their team's instructor.

Sylvia's face once again turned seriously, "For a proctor, you seemed careless. If I hadn't step in, that kid would have died. Then, you would have been the one responsible for his death."

Luci then hanged her head down as she was being reprimanded by this stranger. Right then, another voice reverberated in the surroundings. "You are as harsh as ever, Sylvia…"

A lady suddenly appeared beside Luci, surprising the onlookers.

"Carmella…" Sylvia called out her name.

"Eh? When did you arrive, Aunt?" Luci also seemed surprised like everyone else.

It's the Phoenix Academy team's instructor, high-rank-7 Arcana master, Carmella Hearth, paternal aunt of Luciana.

"You do realize the power behind that spear, didn't you? Do you think she can stop it?" Carmella appeared displeased.

Landing on the ground, Sylvia shrugged her shoulders, "Well, it's the job of the Proctor's to intervene in the match and one shouldn't try to be a proctor if they don't have the ability to stop the contestants…"

"Hmpf, for a light user who was hungry of battles, and had the blood of hundreds of humans on your hands, you shouldn't talk about saving lives…" Carmella didn't want this girl of all the people to lecture her niece. 

"There's a difference between guilty and an innocent, Carmella." Sylvia narrowed her eyes.

Carmella no longer wished to argue with this woman and called out her niece. "Luci…"

"Yes, Aunt?"

"Announce the winner. Since Sylvia has intervened in the battle while saving the kid from Moon Academy, he lost." Carmella then raised her head and looked at Floyd who was still standing on the flying card. "Considering your life has been saved by the third party, the match will be declared as your loss. Do you accept the verdict?"

"Yes…" Floyd didn't waste even a fraction of a second to give the response. Right now, he was scared to even look at Azzy.

Upon getting approval from Floyd, Luci immediately announced, "The winner is Azrael of the Aclein Academy."

"Azrael?" Sylvia quickly turned her head to look at Azzy as soon as she heard his name.

Looking carefully at Azzy, she asked, "Azrael of grade-8? Claire's friend?"

Although his aura was also retracted quickly, as Azzy was still in mindscape and busy conversing with the Reaper, Vajra took control over his body to stand still.

As the battle is halted, it didn't know what to do without receiving any orders from either Azzy or the Reaper and just stood around until Sylvia asked him the question.

Under the control of Vajra, Azzy's head was nodded plainly.

Upon getting the confirmation, Sylvia's sour expression turned soft, and then, suddenly, a smile appeared on her face, "Handsome looks, emotionless expression, powerful dark attribute, and above rank combat ability. Seems like Claire was telling the truth.

Anyway, nice to meet you… I'm Sylvia Lefeuvre, Claire's elder sister."

Claire, who left the stands and was walking towards her sister, stopped in her tracks and mumbled, "You don't need to mention his looks…"

Meanwhile, Sylvia continued, "I was watching your battle from the skies for a while. As a necromancer, I think you are best suited in our Sun Academy where we can guide you to the right path. Want to join us?" 

"Huh!" Everyone was stumped by her words. They didn't expect this woman would this bold, trying to recruit him in front of everyone.

Even if she is a rank-7 expert from the elite Sun Academy, there are also the representatives of the Moon Academy, Maple Academy Phoenix Academy, and even a Central Academy here.

How bold is she to announce publicly that she intended to steal him before their eyes. Isn't it a blatant provocation to the top academies here? Every onlooker from the top academy wondered.

Azzy being a necromancer might stop first-rate and below academies to approach him but these top academies are different.

These top academies from the Arcana world nurtured various heroes and villains in the past. It doesn't matter for them how an alumnus will turn out after they graduated.

And just like they thought, her words provoked the rank-7 instructors from the other three top academies.

In no time, Jordon, who was standing like a spectator, started to float

A few of them who just noticed his appearance gulped in fear as they stared at Jordon's enormous size. They even wondered whether this scary guy is from the family of mythical Giants or something.

Soon, he landed before her. "Ms. Lefeuvre. It's been a while."

Followed by him, a short old man appeared before her. He seemed even more powerful than her. "Little girl, you aren't giving any face to us, are you?"

"Do I have to?" Sylvia glared at him in return. "And what do my actions do have anything to do with you?"

***

Meanwhile, inside Azzy's mindscape, Azzy was sitting on the edge of a familiar cliff, staring at the endless barren land.  "It's been a while since I stood at this place. It seems like the place is livelier now…" He mumbled.

Unlike last time, there were hundreds of skeletons roaming around.

However, they aren't just normal skeletons. All of them are beasts and ranged from low-rank-3 to peak-rank-4. "Are they the ones I killed?"

"Yes, all of them is your undead army. Too bad that none of them were able to use soul skills except for Hydra." The Reaper wanted to seal the soul energy of the Volcanus king too. However, at that time, Azzy was only rank-4 and needed its soul orb to break through.

Now that he's rank-5, the Reaper stressed him to focus on killing as many as lower-ranked beasts to increase his skeleton army so that he can unleash them without the worry of soul power.

The Reaper further informed him that not only he can intimidate the opponent, he can also use them as a shield to block the attack.

While silently listening to the Reaper, Azzy continued to stare at the beasts while recognize them by their shapes. Because of the absence of the flesh, every quadrupedal monster looks almost the same to him.

As he was observing the differences, suddenly, his eyes captured a strange skeleton walking back and forth.

What strange is that it is a human skeleton, not some wild beast that he killed. Due to the absence of the soul power, Azzy also wasn't able to sense anything from it either.

He only wondered what it was doing in his mindscape. As far as he knew, he never killed anyone. Or maybe, he unknowingly killed someone while traveling to the past?

Azzy confronted the Reaper.

The Reaper clearly knew of that skeleton's identity as he was the one that erased the existence of that the mid-rank-6 Assassin.

But, taking Azzy's current situation into account, the Reaper snapped his finger and then, feigned ignorance, "what skeleton are you talking about? You are probably hallucinating." 

"Eh?" Azzy was taken aback by the Reaper's response. He didn't expect to hear that it's an illusion of all things.

"What do you mean by a hallucination? It was just here…" As he turned his head towards the barren land once again and pointed in the place where he saw it last time, but the skeleton disappeared from his view.

For a while, he intently searched for it but wasn't able to find the human skeleton as the Reaper buried it into the ground.

Azzy tilted his head into confusion. "Strange. Why is that illusion of all the things?"

To clear his confusion, the Reaper then explained, "when you visit this place for the first time, you saw the countless bodies on the barren land, didn't you? It's the lingering effect of that incident that is deeply ingrained in your mind. Don't worry. It's a common side-effect that every Arcana Master had to face from to time to remind themselves what their power is."

The Reaper was actually saying the truth about every Arcana Master would have to face such illusion in their mindscape from time to time.

However, he just wanted to use the truth to cover another truth as he knew that Azzy would just become angry if he knew that Reaper took control of his body and killed someone even if it is to save his life. And then the Protos energy would act up once again.

Why bother all of this when he just solve this matter with a snap of his finger.

Having trust in the Reaper, Azzy believed his words and then, continued to stare at the barren lands while moving his legs back and forth.
