My Soul card is a Reaper

Escorted by more than two dozen Aqua Angels, Azzy and his two companions made their way to the edge of the Liravel Trench.

From there, they could see a steep wall that extended for atleast another kilometer downwards to the ocean bed.

Azzy didn't hesitate to swim downwards. Owen and the other one followed along, but the Aqua Angels found themselves hesitant. Nevertheless, Azzy didn't pay attention to them and continued his journey.

Meanwhile, at the top of the wall, Rynmere confronted his team to take a leap of faith.

As they refused it on the grounds of fear, he ordered them to return to guard the city and went after Azzy.

Soon, he caught up to Azzy as they reached the new ocean bed and continued to walk for another half an hour to reach a sleeping giant creature that resembled a squid, although this one had more than sixty arms and ten tentacles.

At the sight of the creature, Azzy couldn't help but comment, "It is smaller than I expected."

"Smaller?" Rynmere stared at him blankly as if he was asking, "Are you serious?" Even Owen took another glance at this terrifying beast that was hundreds of meters big.

Azzy further said, "This one doesn't have any survival instincts either. Even after we arrived, it was sleeping."

Owen: "That's because it doesn't think too much of us after ruling this region for millennia."

Rynmere: "Isn't this actually a good thing? We can just kill it in slee… Wait… what he is doing?"

Azzy was seen then walking forward, exiting the bubble, and ordering them to stay there. He swam toward the creature, reaching its head.

As it continued to sleep even after that, he raised his fist, which became a hundred times bigger for a moment, and gave a knock on its triangular-shaped head, "Get up." He shouted but only bubbles came out.

Meanwhile, Liravel opened its eyes abruptly with a sharp screech; the vibrations released from its painful roar reached all the way to Owen and others but got negated by the bubble.

As it rose and gazed at Azzy, the latter slowly floated in the water with sparks of lightning all over his body. Its tentacles rushed at him to capture him.

"Not even at 8-star and think that you can defeat me? You seriously have zero survival instincts, squid…" Azzy released strong electrical currents this time, going for the kill instead of simply incapacitating his target.

The three spectators watched the scene in awe as the torrent of electricity enveloped the creature, which screamed and screamed until it could no more and turned into a lump of fried meat. The fight lasted exactly eight seconds.

"We have been terrified of this monster for several millennia and it was killed just like that?" Rynmere commented, awestruck by the scene.

The bodyguard giant was stupefied and sweating profusely, remembering how he almost went against this Seraphis in their first meet.

Owen nodded, "Indeed Seraphis are born differently from lowly Angels like us."

"Eh? A Seraphis?"

A while later;

"I'll never forget this debt in my lifetime. My daughter's spirit is finally laid to rest." Owen kowtowed and bowed over and over as Azzy was about to depart from the town.

Surprisingly, there was an Aqua Angel standing on the side.

As he unfurled his six pairs of wings and flew into the sky, the Aqua Angel too flapped his wings and followed behind, catching up to him in no time.

Azzy couldn't help but cast a gaze at him, raising his eyebrow, "Do you really intend to follow me? The place I'm going to go is where your kind is scorned to death. And I won't have time to look after you, Rynmere. It's not really worth leaving the life you have here."

The Aqua Angel replied in a firm tone, "I swear on my soul that I won't trouble you, My Lord. We Aqua Angels only take one master in our entire lives and we stay loyal to our masters until we lose our lives."

Azzy didn't know whether it was a good decision to take this Aqua Angel former captain with him, who stubbornly wanted to be his servant ever since he roasted that creature.

If one has to compare to Gaia's standards, Rynmere's strength would put him at Rank-6, he also had the ability of teleportation up to 72 Etheral units, which is more or less five kilometers. He can also store objects in his mindscape like he is a walking storage card.

For example, he managed to store the entire body of Liravel's corpse, carrying it to his city lord for proof, which also gave Azzy about ten thousand grace shards, almost half of the city's treasury, as a reward. Of course, they will plan on gaining ten times the money from other cities with the claim of killing the ocean lord. But that is another thing entirely.

Most importantly, even the Reaper acknowledges that Rynmere had nothing but reverence in his heart for Azzy. And having him around could hide his real identity. Even if he behaves weirdly, most people would suspect his identity as some Nephilim and not a human.

No matter how he thought about it, Azzy could see the advantages of having him around.

After much pondering, Azzy put a condition of taking him as a servant as he traveled nonstop to the world gate.

It took them almost 31 Hours of flight, but Rynmere stuck with him. Azzy couldn't help but become impressed by his sheer determination and made his position official.

On the way, they saw a few portals on floating islands, which were connected to other worlds in Eldara. But, since they were trying to go to the upper plane, Azzy bypassed them.

The world of Aquilonis is usually a planet filled with an endless ocean with thousands of floating islands all over the sky. But, there was only one island that lies on the ocean.

It was neither large nor small, just about 150 square km in area, but the large portal towering over it made it look like an islet.

Azzy and Rynmere could see dozens of Angels flying in and out of it. Most of them are Nephilims. But, there are a few Angels too.

"My Lord, That's the world gate, connected to Empyreon. Upon entering it, we would reach the world of Astrael. Unfortunately, I have no knowledge of how we get to the Silver City from there. I have only been allowed in Astrael, as Nephilims over there are very kind to lower bloodlines too. In fact, many of our warriors leave for Astrael to work there. Life is much better there. The environment is nice and all. But, there is too much peace, which is definitely not an ideal place for a warrior."

"Alright, let's go…"

Both of them slowly flew to the World Gate.

Just like a door, they flew into the portal and seamlessly flew out from the other side without experiencing any sort of pressure, like one would experience when they teleport, like feeling pressure from all sides, pressing to their body for an instant.

The world he left is just a planet with floating islands and water. No sceneries or so whatever. But, the one he entered had mountains in the distance, which had their peak covered by clouds, and endless grasslands with wild animals could be seen roaming around.

More than that, Azzy was overwhelmed by the auras of humans in the hundred kilometers range. He could sense many Nephilims with human bloodlines in this place.

It wasn't just humans. Azzy could also see cars and planes that he was quite familiar with. He couldn't help but wonder whether the Nephilims here had any connection to his world. Of course, he was happier, feeling like he was at home and not stranded in some alien world.

As they slowly landed on the ground and walked toward the transport section where the so-called Lightstrider, which was more or less a cab, except that every vehicle here is given the same name.

As the flying cabs are a bit too expensive, charging as much as 100 grace shards per ethereal unit (1 Ethereal unit=182m), mainly due to the fact that flying is banned within the perimeter of many cities except for these vehicles, Azzy and Rynmere took a Lightstrider to take a trip to the nearest city from the world gate, the city of Xarx, also known as the first city.

The whole 90-minute trip to the city was quite spent in silence. Azzy hadn't expected that the vehicles were here. Only small but several holes are there on each side of the door for ventilation. There was also a wall between the backseat and the front seat. All they have is a map that resembles GPS displaying before them and a meter on the side.

After paying 1140 grace shards, both of them got down in front of the Hotel - Radiant Heaven, a decent luxury hotel Rynmere had only heard about, which costs over 3400 grace shards per night.

After checking into the deluxe suite, which absolutely reminded him of the hotels at Gaia, based on the furnishings in the room, Azzy took a two-hour nap on the bed while Rynmere slept on the sofa.

Once his mind and body freshened, Azzy sat on the bed and meditated for a while, scanning the entire city.

As his senses covered the entire 5,000 sq.km, Azzy picked up the aura of several strong individuals gathering at different spots of the city.

Soon, both of them got out of the hotel and took a Lightstrider to the nearest gathering spot.

"That will be 233 grace shards, thank you."

"Here we go…"

As the vehicle left, Azzy raised his head to look at the sign written in an unfamiliar language. "Lux, a little help please?"

"Archeon Guild," replied the sword of radiance's spirit in his head.

"A guild, huh? Good…" Azzy walked forward, "Rynmere, let's go…"

The Aqua Angel, however, didn't move forward and stayed there with his head hung to the ground.

"Hmm? What happened?" Azzy asked.

Rynmere answered, "I'm afraid I'm not allowed here."

"Hmm?" Azzy furrowed his brows.
