Chapter 142: 142: Trap on the road

"It's that girl, right? The one with Celestial grade spirit." Azzy asked the Reaper to confirm his suspicions as soon as his eyes fell on the princess of Camelot.

The only thing that surprised him is that she looked like a mortal with no soul power. As Azzy instantly tapped into Aura sensing to sense her real amount of soul power, it turned out to be useless for some reason.

It happened once for him when the assassins from the night clan raided his home. However, back then, he was only a four-star Arcana master and they were two realms higher than him. But now, it is different.

So, either the person before him is a rank-7 who was deliberating suppressing her aura or it might be the work of the celestial grade beast.

Azzy couldn't help but fell into deep thoughts.

As usual, the Reaper resolved his confusion, "It looked like the girl mastered the Decarune seal. Once the person succeeds in creating ten seals, only a person in demi-god realm can detect their aura."

"But, you said it was strictly restricted to the heavenly guardians." Azzy voiced his suspicion. He wondered whether the girl has any relations with those people.

"Yes, it is, but, she is the descendant of Arthur Pendragon. It wasn't difficult for her to acquire the knowledge of seals from their ancient records."

"I see…"

Meanwhile, seeing how Azzy staring at Leah with his hands were frozen like a statue, Claire's face turned dark.

She didn't know that Azzy was now busy in talks with the Reaper.

Just as she raised her hand to grab the plush toy from Azzy's hand, the latter handed to Leah, "Here, you can have it."

"Really?" Leah's eyes glowed as she took the plush toy from Azzy. "Thank you so much. I tried for the past two hours but failed to get it." Leah then put forth her hand, "Oh! I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Leah Pendragon from the heavenly academy."

"Azrael." Azzy shook her hands and commented, "Your sword spirit has one of the most impressive abilities."

While Azzy's face appeared blank as usual, Leah was smiling brightly, "And your abilities are the most mysterious."

Her smile attracted the attention of others, especially Gideon, who seemed like he fell in love as his eyes were glued to her.

Believing that she was mortal, a couple of guys have wicked thoughts. Poor guys didn't know what's going to happen to them, soon.

Meanwhile, the jealous Claire was completely mad at Leah for taking away the cute plush toy that belongs to her. She was also mad at Azzy for giving it to her.

"Princess Leah, are you alone, now? Want to join us?" Gideon joined in the conversation suddenly and wanted to flirt with her.

Leah who already grasped his intentions by the look on his face shook her head, "no, my royal knights are outside."

"Anyway, I spent too much time here. I gotta go. Perhaps, we can continue our conversation sometime later, Azrael." She quickly left from there now that she got what she wanted. 

As Gideon had this idiotic look on his face while he was staring at her back, suddenly something struck on his head.

"Ouch" Rubbing his head, he turned around to see Snivy was standing around with a toy hammer that she bought earlier for fun. "What was that for?" The big-breasted loli appeared angry, "will you stop acting like a dog in heat."

At the same time, Claire dragged Mia with her to play the basketball arcade without saying anything. Snivy also joined them, leaving Gideon and Azzy speechless.

While Azzy understood that Snivy might have been embarrassed because of Gideon's earlier behavior, he didn't understand why Claire appeared to be mad.

Throughout the dinner, she ignored Azzy. When he asked anything, she replied with an answer and ended the conversation. Not only it confused him, but it also disturbed him a bit, although he doesn't know why.

The Reaper who decided not to involve in this matter stayed silent.

It was only after the dinner finished and everyone started to walk towards the karaoke place, he understood the reason when Gideon whispered to him about making Claire angry by giving the gift to Leah when she expected it was for her.

Realizing the issue, he left the group with an excuse of stomach upset because of spicy food and told them to continue while he will return quickly.

Claire felt strange as they knew Azzy likes spicy food and as a five-star Arcana master, his spice tolerance is also absurdly high. But, being angry at him, she didn't reply anything.

The other girls thought Azzy was too embarrassed to sing and probably trying to escape.

On the other hand, Gideon exactly guessed the reason whether Azzy intends to return to the Arcade. Well, at least, he hoped it would be like this.

As it was already 10, most of the commercial shops were getting closed one by one. The civilians, who don't have the means to protect themselves, were returning to their homes.

The police were no longer patrolling the streets like before as the peak-rank-8 expert from WAMO declared the beast is no longer resides within the city.

If not for the presence of so many rank-7 experts within the Aclein Academy, even the Arcana master would have been feared roaming once the sunsets.

Azzy was fearlessly walking on the road with a few passersby. Soon, he reached the Arcade center. After spending nearly an hour, he clenched his fist in happiness. "Finally…"

With the bipedal big-headed turquoise cat-like plush toy in his hands, Azzy proceeded to return to the karaoke place. Now, the road is almost empty with most of the stores closed except for the 24-hour shops like bars, hotels, medical shops, arcades, net café, karaoke, etc…

"Careful, Azrael. There's a trap planted ahead on the road." All of a sudden, Azzy received a warning from the Reaper, making him halt his steps.

"A trap?"

"Yes, there's a hidden double-layered trap was laid by someone, hundred meters away. Both of the energy seems to be filled with light attribute." Upon hearing the Reaper's explanation, Azzy frowned inside. "The target is me?"

"Well, I already said that you are technically an enemy to those who worship Thea. But, it's really ironic that they chose to attack in darkness when they are believers in the goddess of light. Let's hope, it's not them."

Azzy felt the Reaper was casual about it when he said about their possible identities. But then, his last sentence was filled with coldness. He felt like the Reaper seemed to be angry at such a thought.

To confront the enemy, he immediately unleashed the Aura sensing, scanning the half-mile radius.

Dozens of the physical outlines of the humans appeared in his vision but all of them appeared to be moving. No one seems to be suspicious.

Not knowing what to do, Azzy walked forward. When he neared the place where the double-layered seal was placed, he summoned a rank-3 Galarian and ordered it to walk into the trap, instead of destroying it because he suspected some expert who suppressed their aura might also be watching him at the moment.

The skeletal Galarian walked into the trap and activate it. A blinding flash of light appeared before Azzy's eyes followed by powerful energy chains of light that captured the beast.

Azzy sensed the power behind it might be atleast at rank-6 and strangely, he wasn't able to dismiss it too as if the connection between them was broken.

Since he couldn't destroy his own beast, Azzy passed through the place and continued to run towards the karaoke place to bring one of his friends and destroy it as soon as they can.

Unknown to him, from the rooftops of the commercial buildings, five identical-looking teenage girls were monitoring him for the past week, are observing in silence.

Five of them had two dead bodies each nearby their feet. Everyone that ended up dead was wearing a white baptismal robe over which they have pastoral stole, cuffs, and belt. There is a chasuble worn over the other vestments, indicating that they were priests from the church.

One of them raised her sniper rifle and shot a couple of energy bullets. The first one destroyed the skeleton. The second one destroyed the second seal. 

Everyone raised their walkie-talkies at the same time. "Alpha One, mission clear" "Alpha Two, mission clear" "Alpha three, mission clear" "Alpha four, mission clear" "Alpha five, mission clear."

Somewhere in a dim-lit room, a well-built man in a suit was before a computer. He received consecutive messages from the other side.

"Good job."
