Chapter 64 Rain Of Death
Finding her little sister missing, Sapphire became worried about whether she was abducted. They are from the Royal family, after all. Getting kidnapped in exchange for money is common for them.
However, what she was worried about is whether the abductor was an enemy. She didn\'t even think of Iphi leave on her own as she knew that the girl always obeys her words.
Not intending to waste any time, she hurriedly went downstairs and contacted the manager.
If it has happened on their home planet, she would instantly ask the government for help to track her whereabouts through the satellite.
But this is a place that is placed in a different dimension and was trapped by a barrier.
Due to a pact made by all the nations, things like electricity, vehicles, military weapons, satellites, etc… are forbidden in this region.
Sure, one can bring them secretively by the storage cards. However, once get caught, they will be severely punished.
So, Sapphire had no choice but to depend on the staff that might have spotted her.
Sadly, what she received was a piece of bad news. For a whole hour, they searched every corner of the hotel and returned empty-handed.
She was enraged and shouted at the manager, "A person was missing from the hotel and you say none of you even spot her while leaving? It isn\'t even midnight. Are all of your staff members sleeping in broad daylight?"
"I apologize, Your highness…" What can the manager do, except for apologizing, in place of the staff…
She glared at him and said, "Mark my words. If I find my sister was really abducted and fallen into trouble, you can be sure that this building will be razed to the ground."
After giving them the warning, she walked out of the door in worry while taking out a purple grade item card called a message card, which can be used to send a message to a person who owns the other card that\'s linked with it.
"Uncle, Iphi is missing. Contact the authorities and help me find her."
As the entire city of Estrya turned upside down with finding the ten-year-old girl, meanwhile, at the lava lake, Azzy was dodging the lava attack by the Volcanus king.
With his soul power nearly empty, he used Soul absorption on the beast, so that he can recover while injuring it heavily in the process.
However, just as he absorbed a couple of thousand worth of soul power, this mutated platinum grade beast used the lava to protect itself by forming a thick layer over it.
When it didn\'t work, it immediately controlled nearby lava to attack him. A certain volume of lava rose like a tide and attacked him.
Azzy immediately dodged the attack and then, found that he wasn\'t able to absorb its soul power, anymore.
"So, that means, I need to stay still, huh!" Because of this battle, he found out his soul skill\'s weakness.
So far, he thought that as long as he uses Soul absorption, he is invincible against anyone that\'s equal or below his rank. He now realized that his soul skill isn\'t invincible.
It let him wonder whether there are weaknesses for his other skills too. Azzy decided to work on them after finishing off this beast.
Looking at it, the Reaper smiled. He was happy at Azzy\'s progress. He wondered whether it is better for him to leave Azzy on his own, at least in this battle.
He wanted to see, how he would fare without his guidance.
"There are no beasts in the surrounding either," Azzy mumbled, dodging another lava tide. "That means, I can\'t absorb the soul power from others."
Having no other choice, Azzy then took out one of his recovery cards to replenish his soul energy. However, he found out none of them are peak-grade ones.
Maybe, it\'s because his grandpa was a rank-4 in the future and wasn\'t able to craft them. Or maybe, his grandpa thought that they won\'t be necessary as Azzy was going to the Death clan. So, he would have an enormous amount of resources.
For whatever reason, except for one, the remaining nine are of beginner level. So, each one only recovered 1000-5000 soul power. It took all ten of them to let him recover 90% of his soul power.
Since he can\'t waste soul power too much, Azzy decided not to depend on soul skills and only use them when it\'s absolutely necessary.
Dodging its attack once more, Azzy controlled the flying card and flew towards the shore.
Due to its limited control over the lava lake, the beast wasn\'t able to attack him.
Stepping onto the shore, he dismissed the flying card, back to the storage, and then looked at the ball of lava, inside which the beast was staying still.
"Is it trying to merge further?" He wondered.
Azzy then raised his death scythe, up above his head, and ran soul energy through it.
<strong>"Soul skill: Rain of Death."</strong>
Previously, he felt the need to use the soul skills only when it\'s necessary but to attract its attention, in the end, he still used the soul skill anyway.
A dark cloud slowly started to form above his death scythe. As his soul power steadily decreased, its size started to increase.
Soon, it became a giant cloud, spanning over 50 meters in size.
As it completely formed, Azzy heard thunder within in and black rain started to fall.
Since he\'s the user, they didn\'t harm him. However, the land around him that was hit by the black raindrops slowly started to melt. As a result, Azzy sunk for a couple of feet.
As for the lava before him, as soon as the drops hit the surface, even the high-temperature liquid started to vaporize. However, due to the massive size of the lava volume, its energy was absorbed and wasn\'t that much affected.
With his death scythe as a steering wheel, he controlled the movements of the cloud.
The dark cloud slowly made its way towards the giant ball of lava and stopped right above it.
Slowly, the death energy started to vaporize the protective shield.
Within no time, the beast roared in pain as a drop of black rain fell on a spike that was located on its head and was completely melted as a result.
