My Soul card is a Reaper

Meanwhile, Azzy was taken to cadet sparring rooms where the walls were coated with high-level barriers to make sure nothing happens even if one\'s power goes out of control.

Because most of the soldiers were deployed to Aclein city in order to prevent terrorist activities, right now, this pocket world barely has like twelve cadets left who were still in their training phase. The rest were only researchers and robots.

Looking at how their commander was introducing the place to Azzy, everyone became curious about Azzy\'s identity. At the same time, some of them were also taken aback upon realizing this young-looking kid was also in the realm of Elite just like them.

After a fifteen-minute tour, they took seats in a war room to wait until the battle is over on the outside.

Everyone is in constant touch with their friends at the Aclein Academy to get updates on the battle. Meanwhile, Oliver was in talks with WAMO to use satellites and track down the Royal Ancestor.

​ While they had no info on the old man, Barton and others got a piece of the good news of how the Vice-President of WAMO interfered in the battle between Aegis and Cardinal Ophanim. The other higher realm experts were also captured by the Robots.  The four injured exalts were beaten down by Ramiel and were held captive at the Grand Arena.

"Now, that\'s great." Azzy sighed in relief as everything became normal. Just when he wondered whether he will return to the Academy or not, all of a sudden, everyone froze around him.

He sprung up from his seat in shock and looked around. "What the…"

"The time has been frozen once again." The Reaper let out a comment.

"What do you mean again?"

Before the Reaper answered him, a hooded figure materialized before Azzy.

"How is this possible?" The Reaper seemed to be gone into a shock for some reason before the hooded figure lowered his hood, revealing his face.

"Hello, Azrael." The older Azrael greeted him with a smile.

"Huh!" Azzy was taken aback by his identical appearance. He takes a look around once again. Realization dawned upon him. "Are you me from the future?"

The Older Azrael grinned and let out a comment, "your reaction is exactly the same when I was standing at your place. I asked the same question when our future counterpart appeared before me."

"Eh?" Azzy didn\'t understand what he was talking about and fall into confusion. On the other hand, the Reaper realized the meaning behind it. Before the situation escalates, he quickly takes over Azzy and spoke in a serious tone, "Azrael. Don\'t know whether I should be happy that you became a Demi-God or should be angry that I couldn\'t sense myself inside you. All I sense is that Protos Energy is completely integrated with your soul orb. Tell me, did you let it swallow us after mastering it?"

The older Azrael\'s expression suddenly changed to that of coldness as soon as his meeting with his younger self was interrupted, "It\'s been a long time, Chronos. However, I\'m not interested to chat with you. So, you can go back to the mindscape."

He raised his hand and a few threads of terrifying dark energy erupted from his palms and hit the younger Azzy, not only forcing the Reaper back to the mindscape but also temporarily sealing the mindscape itself to make sure the Reaper won\'t take over Azzy.

Azzy found his consciousness restored after going into a blank for a second. At the same time, he also sensed the change in his mindscape. His eyes widened in shock and involuntarily took a step back.

"Don\'t worry. It\'s just a temporary measure to make sure Chronos does not interrupt this meeting just like he always does in the name of protecting your innocence, soul, or whatever bullsh*t reasons he gives out."

Azzy could sense a trace of hatred towards the Reaper in the voice of this older version of himself.

"Anyway, we have a lot to talk about. Let\'s sit…" The older Azrael casually took a seat at the long table. Azzy also followed the same.

Straightening his back, the older Azrael moved to the edge of the seat, resting his arms on the table, "First, let me formally introduce myself. I\'m Azrael Garcia, sixty-fourth head of the Death clan and the leader of Blood Moon."

"I became the head of the clan in the future?" Azzy got excited a little bit and then, wondered what Blood Moon meant. "Is it some kind of organization or something?" He didn\'t voice out his doubts and stayed silent, letting his future counterpart finish his introduction.

"I\'m from the Year 2124, a hundred and thirty years from now. My reason of visit this time is to meet you and do a few other things that our future version told me like killing the Royal Ancestor of Northern Qudour, warning our great grandfather, giving him a second chance Alan, and giving a few instructions to Ramiel, etc... Anyway, I will tell you the things one by one. Starting with the rules of time travel, important paths you must take so that you successfully end up as a Demi-God like me and break shackles of Gods placed on this mortal realm."

As the older Azrael continued to speak, Azzy felt his heartbeat quickened its speed like a bullet train. And the end was like a solid punch to his chest. He couldn\'t believe his future self is also a Demi-God, an existence people hoped to become only in their dreams.

With how young his older self looked, Azzy felt excited that his progress is also going to be way faster in the near future. He was imagining a situation where he could also stop the time at any time.

"You are thinking about how you could stop the time with a snap of a finger, aren\'t you?" As the older Azrael suddenly commented with a smile, Azzy\'s heart skipped a beat. "Oops, Busted…"

The older Azrael let out a laugh and continued, "I too thought the same, back then." *Ahem*

Clearing his throat, he changed his expression to display seriousness, "Anyway, first and foremost. You should never believe the words of Chronos completely."

"Eh? I shouldn\'t believe Chronos?" Azzy looked at his future self in disbelief. How could he accept it? The Reaper is the person whom he trusted the most in the world. Even if it is coming from himself, Azzy didn\'t accept his words.

As if he read Azzy\'s mind, the older Azrael said, "I don\'t mean he\'s bad or something. It\'s just that he keeps a lot of secrets from you and you should never completely believe his words or actions. Listen calmly to the end and you will understand why my words make sense.

Let\'s start with the past event that occurred to you.

Do you know that you actually have a blood of a person on you? And I don\'t mean Dove."

"Huh!" Azzy frowned in response. "Who are you talking about?"

As far as he knew, he never killed a human with his own hands.

The Older Azrael then explained, "When you spared the assassin from the night clan, he tried to kill you and Chronos took over your body and killed him. To date, he had hidden it from you. Even his skeleton is also buried within the soil of your mindscape so that you never find it out."

Azzy suddenly remembered the skeleton that he actually saw back when he first revealed his necromancy abilities in public but the Reaper told him that it was an illusion.

The older Azrael continued by putting allegations on the Reaper, "On top of this, he lied to you about the rules of time travel. Now, I will you recite all the rules of time travel. Commit to your memory.

First, your original timeline is no longer 2020. As you age, your original timeline will also shift forward at the same time. And in these missing years, you will also be missing in that timeline. Of course, everyone remembers your existence but no one will be able to find you.

In one sentence, the clan will think you had run away or being abducted or maybe, even got killed. Actually, that\'s more convenient but anyway, the point is now that you had time traveled 27 years to the past, then, 27 years to the forward will always be your original timeline.

This is why you must raise your strength as much as possible and return to your original timeline."

"What!"
