BXBX NOVEL Chapter 124 Seal Of Faery
Looking at the gigantic blazing fireball in the sky that illuminated the entire academy like a miniature sun, most of the students who are watching from the stands couldn\'t help but gulp in fear. Even the peak-rank-5 experts like Luciana and Leah thought that they won\'t be able to handle the attack.
Meanwhile, the rank-6 and above experts wondered whether Vann is intending to kill Azzy or something.
But, they weren\'t worried about his life because of the presence of so many rank-7s and a rank-8.
Vann also thought the same. That\'s why he never held back in unleashing this powerful soul skill of his while reducing more than a million soul power worth of soul energy.
Despite being a platinum grade beast, as Vajra is only low-rank-5, he was confident that the black wolf won\'t be able to stay alive once it was successfully hit.
As for its dodging skill, Prince Vann already had a skill card within his pocket that can immobilize it for a few seconds. With perfect timing, he thought he can gain an edge in the battle.
However, he didn\'t expect Azzy to unleash a soul move in return instead of trying to evade the attack.<strong> "Soul skill: Lightning prison."</strong>
*Wow*
Letting out a powerful bark, Vajra unleashed its fifth soul skill. Dark clouds gathered above in the sky, covering the moon.
Due to the stadium lights and the miniature sun, most of the spectators never realized the disappearance of the moon, or rather they didn\'t pay attention to it. Only rank-7 experts realized how the soul skill is going to be unleashed.
Meanwhile, the giant ball of flames has been completed. The gold dragon was ready to throw it at its enemy. It was waiting for orders on which it should target, the human or the wolf.
Before it received a reply from its host, suddenly, a net of lightning dropped on the fireball along with the dragon, forcing it to crash on the floor without any resistance.
The move surprised the spectators. However, Vann appeared calm. Looking at Azzy, he said, "You know that it can\'t trap my Delphina for long, right?"
Azzy stayed silent, not because he doesn\'t want to answer but it\'s because he\'s currently busy getting lectured by the Reaper.
"Made a wrong decision. Instead of unleashing the soul skill towards the dragon, you should have let Vajra trap its master. He\'s a human. It\'s obvious that his resistance will be lesser than the dragon.
While he tries to resist and escape from the prison, Vajra and you can coordinate your attacks and kill the dragon with the spear of death and laughing skull of darkness combo attack followed by Vajra\'s any other soul skill. As for that fireball, you can just defend it with the undead summonings…"
Azzy wanted to refute by stating that it was Vajra\'s wish to duel the dragon. So, he can\'t give such an order. However, he didn\'t get any time to argue with the Reaper as the dragon is already destroying the net made of lightning just by touching it with the giant fireball.
Azzy immediately ordered the black wolf to unleash another soul skill.
*Grrrr…*
Upon receiving the orders, Vajra growled and bared its teeth at the gold dragon that almost freed its upper body.
The miniature sparks that are dancing around its body, now became big and dense that now it appeared as if Vajra was coated in lightning armor.
It dashed towards the dragon in a zig-zag manner like a flash at a speed neither the dragon nor its master was able to see its position.
And by the time the gold dragon became free from the lightning net while feeling a little bit numb over its body due to lightning\'s paralyzing effect, something\'s just struck it on its front right limb.
*Grraaaa*
The gold dragon let out a loud, harsh, piercing cry as its right foreleg turned into ash as if it was struck by lightning. However, before it gets the time to process the pain, another powerful flash of lightning struck its left forelimb and turns it into ash.
The giant ball of miniature sun that was hovering above its mouth was launched in a random direction due to the loss of control.
"Delphina…" Prince Vann shouted in worry.
By luck or bad luck, the ball of flames that was launched in the air found its way towards Azzy.
Looking at it, Vice Principal Sahara thought of saving Azzy as he seemed rooted on the spot while staring at the incoming attack. She wondered whether he was frozen in fear or something.
However, right then, she received instruction from the Principal to stand down and not interfere. He had seen Azzy battle the robot when he was only high-rank-4.
More than nine months ago, Barton saw that his physique is equal to that of a peak-rank-5 Arcana master. Now that Azzy has low-rank-5 soul power, Barton was confident that even if he was hit head-on, Azzy will, at the very least, won\'t die, and at most, he will suffer heavy injuries.
Just as the miniature sun almost reached him, Azzy made his move.
He made a fist and motioned his right arm and leg backward. Pouring more than half of the soul energy into it, he punched towards it.
*Boom*
An enormous explosion occurred, just two meters away from Azzy, blasting him off a dozen meters away before he managed to land on the ground. Aside from little bruises on the face and arms, almost no damage occurred to Azzy.
In the meantime, as the black wolf momentarily got distracted because of the explosion, the gold dragon hurriedly flapped its wings to fly into the sky. As soon it escaped from Vajra\'s range, Prince Vann pushed his leg against the ground and jumped high, and landed on its back.
Standing on its back, Prince Vann caressed its back, trying to soothe its pain, "I\'m here. Everything will be alright, Delphina."
Taking out a healing card, he proceeds to heal.
"As I said earlier, your opponent has a huge advantage. Vajra cannot harm that gold dragon but the latter can harm Vajra. As long as they are in the sky, you cannot defeat them. Too bad that you cannot summon the death scythe…" The Reaper then suggested letting him take over the control of the body for a short to apply a sealing technique that Azzy has learned from the advanced runes book but didn\'t master yet.
At first, Azzy was reluctant to depend on the Reaper as he felt it was cheating but then, the latter, who understood his thoughts, explained that despite being an immortal cosmic entity, he was still an Arcana spirit just like Vajra or the gold dragon. So, whether Azzy fights or he fights, it\'s the same unless there\'s a personal vendetta.
Only did then, Azzy allowed the Reaper to possess him. After all, he has no intention to battle Vann in the first place.
"Vajra, return this instant," Azzy\'s voice suddenly deepened while sending a chill to everyone in the surroundings. Upon hearing the Reaper\'s voice, Vajra obediently returned to the mindscape, disappearing from everyone\'s eyes.
Prince Vann frowned because of the change in Azzy\'s voice coupled with his eyes turning pitch black with no visible pupils. The other higher rankers stunned upon discovering that it\'s a possession.
It\'s because Vajra is still outside when Azzy was possessed. That would only mean, the other Arcana spirit is also a platinum grade beast. Well, most of them expected it would be a platinum grade but still, watching it personally is entirely another thing.
Under the control of the Reaper, Azzy raised his hand. Soul energy started to pour out of his body. Various runic symbols appeared and were arranged in the shape of a seven-pointed star.
"Seal of Faery" Barton gasped in shock as he watched the seal successfully form.
Meanwhile, Vann, who also discovered that Azzy was possessed by his second Arcana spirit, ordered the gold dragon to unleash its soul skill.
<strong>"Soul skill: Eternal Firebeam."</strong>
As a million soul power worth of soul energy transferred from Vann to the gold dragon which then added fire element to it and then condensed it into a ball inside its mouth to shoot at Azzy, the latter pushed the seal onto the ground while pouring all of his soul power in this attack.
All of a sudden, the seal expanded to more than fifty meters long and wide, almost covering the field inside the Arena. The rank-7 proctors jumped away from the seal as they sensed the suppression effect from it.
The gold dragon didn\'t even get enough time to prepare to attack Azzy as the seal was activated, bringing the dragon and its rider onto the ground, almost instantly.
Both of them weren\'t even able to resist the seal before they crashed on the ground. Vann and the gold dragon trying to get up but they felt as if someone pulling their legs down from below and at the same time, someone pushing their heads down from above.
Adding on top of that, just like the quicksand soul skill of Hydra, the seal started to absorb all the soul power from Vann and the dragon while strengthening itself.
Soon, the dragon disappeared and Vann lost his consciousness. The last thing he saw was Azzy, who just stood there in silence while staring at him with his pitch-black eyes.
As the rest of the audience was amazed, one person was looking intently at the unconscious Vann and licked his lips.
<strong>Ten minutes later;</strong>
The door opened and a person entered the room while supporting the unconscious prince of Hildegard. The person put Vann on the bed. Suddenly, Vann\'s chest was pierced by his helper\'s hand.
