My Soul card is a Reaper

And then, his young age is to blame for his eruption. If he had been living for centuries or millennia, he would be mature enough to ignore such insults.

Of course, it isn\'t that Azzy is vulnerable to insults. But, due to the fact that he never ended up in such a position, it made him lose control for a moment.

The result?

Previously, when he lost such control, almost the entire city was affected. The same result occurred but the nearest surrounding area suffered the most.

In an instant, hundreds of teenagers and kids turned into a pool of blood without knowing what struck them. Snivy, Flora, and all the other teachers were stuck to the ground, feeling the intense pressure on their souls and bodies. As for Aaron, he was out of the city and wasn\'t aware of the developments.

Meanwhile, in the indoor arena, Azzy\'s consciousness was taken over by the protos energy.

The Reaper, on the other hand, didn\'t suppress the cosmic energy, instead, he was trying to make Azzy fight on his own.

"Come to your senses, lad. If you lose against the Protos energy, you will become the next Aelius Crescent. You are going to massacre everyone. Suppress it, right now. 

Think about your family, Azrael. Think about your parents, think about your clan, and think about your little sister. You won\'t just disappoint them but you will also curse their lives with your act.

The situation is never out of control for you. So, no harm is being done. Just show that protos energy its place."

The protos energy was also slowly being pushed back into the mindscape.

Seeing a bit of success, the Reaper then spoke to Azzy\'s other Arcana Spirits, "Ruby and Jinn, both of you hold Vajra and help him contain the protos energy."

In an instant, the jinn and the black lotus approached a howling black wolf and suppressed it as the protos energy was returning to the gem on its forehead.

Once all of it was sealed, the wolf calmed down and Azzy\'s senses returned to reality.

He realized what he had done and felt the urge to vomit. As he controlled it, the Reaper advised him to erase the timeline.

Without caring about the principal\'s presence, Azzy summoned the hourglass.

"You… What the hell have you done, you bast*rd," roared the principal as he rose to his feet.

Azzy, meanwhile, hurriedly flipped the hourglass upside down. "Soul skill: Rewind"

The time was stopped all over the solar system and beyond its range, all the way to the Oort cloud, before reverting its movements with a giant invisible barrier around it. This time barrier is somehow protecting it from facing catastrophic consequences due to the change in its usual path.

Azzy reset the timeline to twenty minutes ago where he was conjuring up a barrier, in the indoor arena.

As the time was reverted successfully, Azzy dismissed the hourglass and bend down while supporting himself by placing his hands on his knees. He started taking heavy breaths. "The Protos energy is so messed up. I thought I would be able to control it after getting stronger but it was also getting stronger. How the fu*k did my future even managed to control it?"

Looking at his frustrated host, the Reaper let out a sigh and said, "Think of it as an experience."

"Is there really no way to get it under my control?" Azzy asked him.

The Reaper answered, "There\'s a reason why the gods fear the Protos race beings, Azrael. It is known that Buddha and Gaia are the only divine beings who are immune to Protos energy, apart from me, Life, and Space.

It also means that the natural energy can suppress the protos energy if it is concentrated enough in abundant amounts.

If you could reach tier-9 divine physique, there\'s a possibility that your resistance will improve a lot because you will be qualified to develop a natural energy core, similar to that of a soul orb. You won\'t need to keep absorbing the natural energy as it will become a part of you. 

And if you could find a way to reach the tier-11 divine physique attained by Buddha, which doesn\'t even exist in that Buddhist book, you might become completely immune.

But, the road ahead isn\'t simple. You can already see how difficult is to even achieve the tier-9 divine physique. Once you stabilize your realm, we\'ll go to the forest of death. Until then, try not to get emotional over every trivial thing. Okay?"

As Azzy was pondering on the matter, the Reaper further said, this time in a stern tone as if he was lecturing him, "You got angrier over the fact that you got injured by someone weaker even though you were quite calmer while watching Alder\'s death. You have to lose that ego of yours as it always clouds one\'s judgment."

"I know. Sorry." Azzy apologized. He was aware of his weakness but he just couldn\'t help it sometimes.

After conjuring the energy barrier once again, he sat on the floor, which was the only solid part of the barrier. He closed his eyes and started meditating to calm down his emotions. 

Of course, it goes without saying that he sealed up his soul orb.

After a while, the students arrived. Azzy didn\'t change anything. He repeated the exact same words to them until Principal George and Raydon interrupted with their presence.

As Raydon joined the group of four and further requested Azzy for a spar after winning the match, the latter reacted faster than student Ace this time.

He replied, "You are weak at the moment. Come and find me after you have defeated an opponent with atleast a gold-grade Arcana of the same type as yours and a whole realm ahead of you."

Raydon and the other students are surprised for a moment.

Their teacher surely has placed high requirements. Was he avoiding confronting a student or was he annoyed by Raydon\'s presence? The latter appeared to be more likely as everyone heard of their argument, a day earlier.

Furthermore, they too hate Raydon, who always looks down on them. His statement that he could win against everyone was proof of that. So, they welcomed Azzy\'s reply.

Raydon couldn\'t help but grunt and stand aside.

The sparring matches continued one after another. As Azzy observed everyone\'s movements, he realized that Julius was correct. There are probably 4-5 who had the chance against 10-A students in a real match.

Once the matches are concluded, he told everyone to gather at one spot and then spoke, "Okay, I got the gist of your abilities. Tomorrow is Wednesday. As per the schedule I have planned, we will be having our next class in the wild zone of Nlethemar. Today\'s homework is to list all the animals of Nlethemar and their key abilities. Class is dismissed."

Murmuring began among the students. Some are excited while some are worried. Raydon appeared to be in deep thought. No one knows what he is thinking.

A few hours later;

Somewhere, in the downtown, Snivy and Flora were seen walking together. They entered a restaurant named Palasso and saw Azzy waiting for them.

Both of them took the seat. Azzy called the waiter and ordered the food.

As the waiter left the table, Azzy looked at Flora and asked, "So, what is that you want to talk about?"
