My Soul card is a Reaper

Chapter 529 The Second Act Of Time Traveling (Part-2)



"What should I do now?"

Azzy\'s presence got caught by Aaron\'s mystic eyes and was left with two choices.

One, he should return to the original timeline. He has already found the culprits. So, it wasn\'t as if this trip is fruitless. But, if he runs away without doing anything, he would feel like a coward.

Two, he stays here and captures them right now. In such a case, he might be messing up with the timeline.

As Azzy doesn\'t want to opt for either of the choices, he thought for a bit and went on with the third choice, which is just a modification of the second plan.

Continuing to float in the sky, Azzy proceeded to summon his soul card.

"Come out, Jinn."

A man with his lower half full of smoke and a ponytail on his bald head made the appearance before his master.

He bowed to Azzy while cupping his fists, "Master, your orders."

Azzy pointed his finger at the couple on the ground and ordered, "I want you to beat them up until I\'m satisfied. If you can successfully possess him, it is even better. Now, go…"

Since there is a restriction of strength in a level-3 region like Emerald City, he wasn\'t sure that the Jinn will be able to beat both of them with ease.

But, what if the opponents turned out to be stronger than he expected? Azzy had that thought too. Hence, after sending the Jinn to fight the targets, he went on unleashing his favorite soul skill.

"Soul skill: Rise of the Undead"

Azzy closed his eyes and concentrated on bringing out just one undead, the recent addition to the group.

A large six-eyed undead spider was summoned in front of him but before it even tried to greet him, the gravitational force of the planet made her free fall.

Fortunately, there was no crash occurred as the spider was swift enough to make a smooth landing.  Or else, there would have been a large crater formed in the middle of the place.

"Bring down my enemies, Taslan." Azzy passed the instruction through a telepathic connection.

The six-eyed spider and the Jinn made their way toward their respective targets, taking them by surprise as they experienced such a strange thing.

"One is a humanoid Arcana spirit and the other is an undead summon but with a spirit core. Careful, Maria," said the man as he summoned his Arcana while fixing his eyes on the masked figure floating atleast a couple of hundred meters above him.

"Come out, Stratos."

*buzz* buzz* *buzz*

The sounds of buzzing were heard in the surroundings but there was no appearance of an Arcana, atleast in the eyes of Jinn and Maria.

However, it was a different story for Azzy who had activated his Eyes of God soul skill.

He saw a tiny mosquito hovering around Aaron\'s head and it was anything but ordinary. It was an Arcana for sure.

"A mosquito as Arcana? Too weird for a villain who was blessed with cosmic eyes…" thought Azzy as he informed the Jinn, which will be facing Aaron.

Jinn replied in confidence that he can take care of the opponent and flew straight toward Aaron.

Aaron, for some reason, stayed calm unlike his flustered partner as Jinn reached him.

The jinn clenched his fist and threw a punch to Aaron\'s face. The latter didn\'t bother to dodge and just stood straight.

Just as the fist was about to touch him, Aaron\'s rainbow eyes glowed and the jinn\'s fist passed through him.

"Eh?" Azzy was taken aback by the scene. "It didn\'t seem like he unleashed any soul skill.  Is it the ability of the eyes, his inborn ability?"

"It looks like the child has unlocked the mystic eyes\' hidden potential. If that is the case, then, you cannot go against him without commotion." The Reaper gave his suggestion,  either cast a barrier or leave this timeline.

Azzy nodded and proceed to unleash a sealing technique he learned from the guardian god.

A transparent barrier in the open area was cast in about ten seconds, cutting off the connection to the outside world. As the natural energy from the surroundings was used as the source, it doesn\'t even need Azzy\'s supervision to manage it anymore. The barrier will take care of itself, i.e. self-healing.

Meanwhile, the Jinn went on continuously attacking Aaron with his fists. However, every attack just passes through him. And this mosquito, the gold-grade Arcana of the same size as a real-life mosquito, was just hovering around its master for some reason.

Seeing Aaron\'s soul energy was also rapidly being consumed, the jinn didn\'t bother using any other techniques either.

At the same time, the six-eyed spider reached its target. Maria\'s eyes turned to gold once again as she went into her battle stance. Daggers appeared in her hands. They were normal weapons though. For whatever reason she might have, Maria didn\'t summon her Arcana even while facing a powerful monster like Taslan.

Taslan opened its mouth and shot a jet of spider web at close range. Maria rapidly swung the twin daggers, cutting the spider web until the undead creature used its soul skill, the Death stare, to paralyze her for a moment.

Before she even attempted to escape it, Taslan shot a jet of web and captured her in a cocoon.

"Dammit." Aaron gritted his teeth and was forced to dismiss his transparent ability and unleashed an illusion.

*Pow*

He was punched once and flew almost ten meters away, crashing into a lamppost and destroying it.

However, in the eyes of the jinn, he was standing still like always but he wasn\'t untouchable this time. And in the undead spider\'s view, its target just stayed in the cocoon as it is.

The Jinn started punching Aaron who stood there like a wall. Wounds were clear on him but he wasn\'t moving from the spot. The Jinn didn\'t think too much about it and just beat him up, following his master\'s orders.

On the other hand, the undead spider observed its target, which wasn\'t resisting as it has expected. It doesn\'t know what else to do other than raise its head and look in the sky only to realize that its master disappeared.

In reality, Azzy was floating in the sky in the same place. And at the moment, he didn\'t appear to be pleased.

"Hmm, what were they doing?" Azzy frowned inwardly as he saw the Jinn busy punching air and the undead spider was looking around in confusion.

As his Eyes of God sees through every illusion and trick, he wasn\'t affected by the illusion and saw Aaron hurriedly rise to his feet, rushed to his partner, and freed her from the cocoon.

"Chronos, is it another eye ability?" He asked the Reaper. The latter confirmed his suspicions before explaining, "Yes, the mystic eyes are far more complicated than the other cosmic eyes. Apart from spotting things like spirits, energies, ghosts, and auras, the user who truly mastered the eye could also see objects from a long distance, unleash illusions over a wide area, become transparent like a ghost, enter other people\'s dreams, steal one\'s soul energy, and even rewrite his reality in exchange for his life force."

"That cosmic eye is so broken…" Azzy was shocked when he heard the Reaper\'s words. He suddenly felt like his eyes are useless and envied his enemy.

The Reaper who understood his host\'s thoughts then stated, "Mystic eyes appeared to be overpowered but in reality, the abilities not only have several restrictions but also consume a lot of soul energy. On the other hand, the Eyes of Death could practically see one\'s death.

Right now, all you can see is an aura of death. Once you master it, you just need to take a glance at your targets and you can see the time, date, place, and how would they die too. Not even the gods could escape your vision."

"But, the Eyes of Death are of no use in a battle and even in daily life, it is useless. So, what if I know how one dies? You will keep on lecturing me to not go against the natural order. If I wouldn\'t have been stubborn about saving my sister, Affy wouldn\'t have even been born in the first place. I don\'t see how this power is even incredible?" Azzy argued with the Reaper.

The Reaper replied calmly, "You could only understand it when you live long enough. There is no shortcut to wisdom."
