My Soul card is a Reaper

Chapter 428 Grandpa, I'm Home



<strong>Public cemetery, Aclein city;</strong>

While security personnel waited outside of the compound, Azzy, Mia, and Calder were standing in front of two graves built beside each other. Obviously, their expressions were sad.

"There was really no clue of their murderers?" asked Azzy in a soft tone. His eyes are fixed on his master\'s grave.

Calder replied, "As I have said before, all we know is that they were after the Jewel of Life."

"Yeah," Mia agreed with his statement. She further said, "The autopsy of their bodies showed that those bastards tortured Vice Principal Sahara for several days before slicing her veins, leaving her to die a slow death.

On the other hand, Principal Barton was killed instantly with a stab to the heart though. It happened in Arcana world, so, we didn\'t have any way to identify the murderer."

Letting out a deep sigh, Azzy asked them to leave him alone for a while.

As they left the cemetery, he sat down and stared at his master\'s photo, "Aunt Affea died, Claire left me, you and Ms. Fauns were killed, mom and dad are missing, Barbara was killed by my hands, Louis also went missing, the academy was gone, and most surprisingly, Mia and Calder were married.

I never expected to see this kind of future when I traveled back to my original timeline. Master, first, I will find the murderers and punish them. Then, I will go back in time and save you and Ms. Fauns. Until then, please don\'t reincarnate, alright?"

Azzy rose to his feet and then walked away without turning back to glance at the graves again.

<strong>Sometime later, at Portal point;</strong>

"Okay, Mia, Calder, we\'ll meet again." "Take care, Azrael"

Azzy gave a hug to both of them and parted ways with them, entering the portal point to teleport to the Central City at Arcana world.

From there, he traveled to the City of Larnwick. It is a tier-1 city located in the far east of the Southern Qudour nation. His former native place, the town of Sliya was just 30 kilometers away from this city but he never visited it.

During the first 8 and half years, he spent in the town. He was supposed to study in this city but his awakening of the Reaper as Arcana forced him to spend the next 4 years in the Death clan. The following two years were spent in Aclein. So, one can say that he\'s basically new to this city.

But then again, he wasn\'t that concerned about it either. After all, he traveled to several cities. Traveling in this place is no big deal. Or so, Azzy expected when he teleported into its portal point.

Never in the world did he expect the guards stationed there would ask for his identification documents as soon as he arrived.

Azzy was taken aback at first as there was usually no checking at the portal points in the human world where there are CCTVs everywhere to capture one\'s image. He found several kids and adults were detained on the side.

Assuming that it is mandatory in the Southern Qudour, he took out his two identity cards. One of them is a school identity card. And the other is from WAMO.

Since the Aclein city branch of Eternal institutions no longer existed, he showed his identity card from WAMO where his designation is registered as Cadet.

The guard looked at the ID and furrowed his brows, "Born in 1980?"

He pointed the gun at Azzy right away, "How dare you try and enter our country through fake ID?"

"Eh?" Azzy didn\'t understand what was going on. Did the Identity card design change during the past 27 years or something? he wondered.

Meanwhile, the guard called his captain and handed him the ID.

The captain, who is in the 5-star realm, observed the Identity card and commented, "It looks identical to the original."

"Kid, stay aside with them until we confirm the authenticity and get some answers from you," said the captain before gesturing for the two guards to take him away.

Azzy cannot explain the secret of his date of birth and decided to go on with that lie, "That ID is genuine, mister, and you can confirm my identity with the Presidential house of Northern Qudour."

"You shouldn\'t have said that, Azrael." The Reaper\'s voice echoed in his head.

As soon as the Reaper\'s words ended, the captain also raised the gun and pointed at him, "Presidential House of Northern Qudour? Now, get on your knees and put your hands behind the back of your head. You need to come with us for questioning, right away. Any resistance will force us to take action."

"What the hell is going on?" Azzy fell into confusion. Why was he being nabbed? He was aware that there is a problem between the North and the South but did the situation escalate into pure enmity or something?

Had Azzy known that this tight security arrangement is because of the recent bombings in the capital city, he would have probably entered the city in disguise and then use the teleportation card to fly away to escape all this nonsense.

Unfortunately, he didn\'t understand the situation properly. But, at the same time, he didn\'t plan on letting them do whatever they want just because of some misunderstandings either.

Hence, Azzy felt that he was left with two choices. One is to leave the place without waiting for their permission. And the other is to simply force them to leave him alone by posing as an Exalt realm expert who didn\'t age properly.

Not wanting to put a brand on him as a spy or a criminal over some misunderstandings, Azzy decided to opt for the second route.

<strong>"Decarune Seal, unlock"</strong>

He unsealed his soul orb and then released his aura. As a 7-star realm Arcana Master, he knew that this captain or the other guards wouldn\'t be able to move under the aura suppression.

However, he didn\'t know that the instant he released his aura, every person within a 1.5 km radius also suddenly felt enormous pressure and was forced to collapse on their knees. The captain and the guards in the surroundings were no different.

"Argh…" The captain\'s facial expression was completely changed from a moment ago. The fear paralyzed his whole body and he couldn\'t even open his mouth to speak something.

Retracting his aura, Azzy stared at him, "I don\'t care what happened here and I don\'t even want to care. I\'m only here to visit a relative of mine. There\'s nothing less or more to it. So, let me go in peace. You have my photo. You can report your higher-ups for the inquiry but don\'t bother me at the moment. Now, are we clear?"

The captain continued to kneel on the ground and nodded repeatedly.

Azzy took the Identity card from the floor and used a random teleportation card to teleport five kilometers away.

Once Azzy disappeared, the captain wiped off his sweat, "A true Exalt realm expert. I guess I was lucky to be alive..."

Roughly about 30 minutes after Azzy\'s disappearance, an old man appeared in the sky and stared down at the city where thousands of unconscious citizens were being transported to various hospitals. With a serious look on his face, he mumbled, "that dense aura, it was unlike anything I have felt until now."

He then closed his eyes for a while and scanned the life forces of the collapsed citizens, "No lives were lost but he will have to pay for his irresponsible actions. He was probably captured by the CCTVs at the portal point. Once we get the picture, it will be easy to track him down."

Soon, he disappeared.

Meanwhile, Azzy was traveling toward the town of Sliya like a normal human in a taxi. On the way, he was reminiscing about his past.

The person he was going to is not the same Oakley he lived together in the same house. Azzy was clear on that but it could be a little tough when faced with the reality. After all, he faced it with Mia and Calder.

But then again, Oakley is different from them. He is someone who knows his past, like from childhood. So, he hoped he won\'t be uncomfortable. Now the only thing he needed to worry is perhaps the reaction of his grandpa after learning the truth.

Because of traffic on the highway, it took nearly two hours to reach the town. From there, he guided the driver to reach the destination, Oakley\'s mansion.

On the way, he didn\'t forget to scan the city through Aura sensing and found the auras of his grandfather and the butler, Ethar Night.

As soon as he got out of the taxi, Azzy hurriedly gave him a 1000-Kroc note (10k credits) and rushed into the compound without bothering to take the change.

Entering the house, the first thing he witnessed is a middle-aged-looking Oakley Night having tea with Ethar.

Both of them naturally sensed the appearance of an intruder when Azzy crossed the gate. However, by the time they turned their heads, Azzy was already standing at the entrance door.

"Hmm? Who are you?" asked Ethar, furrowing his brows. He didn\'t recognize Azzy but felt his 7-star soul realm. Hence, he couldn\'t help but turn wary.

Oakley narrowed his eyes to look at Azzy, feeling that he looks a lot familiar.

It was then Azzy opened his mouth, "Grandpa, it\'s me."

"Az… Azzy?" Oakley\'s voice shook in surprise and he immediately rose to his feet. "Eh? Young master?" Ethar was also shocked by Azzy\'s sudden appearance. It\'s been six years since he has last seen him after all.

Azzy sealed his soul orb and let out a smile, "I\'m home."
