My Soul card is a Reaper
Chapter 253 Unknown Motives Of Estella Moon

Then, one after another, students gave their introduction. The last one to speak is the quiet boy who was sitting alone in the corner. "Adam, age 14, Grade-9. I was born and raised in Silver City. My parents work at WAMO, in the research division."

As soon as Adam sat down, Louis added, "Teacher, Adam's parents were the inventors of the world's first supercomputer, Eon."

"Oh!" Almost half of the class exclaimed in surprise as they never expected a low profile guy like him has such a high background. Even Uphiar was surprised by the information. He felt grateful to Azzy and his team members for winning the tournament, thereby, attracting such talents. At the same time, he was slightly disappointed that Adam is faring a lot worse compared to his genius classmates. Even Lark entered the Elite realm.

But then again, he is selected for this class because of his high potential. Uphiar decided to observe him in the upcoming weeks.

Putting his thoughts aside, Uphiar then started to explain what the school management's plans with Class Zero are and the objectives students need to focus on.

"Okay, now that the introductions are over, we'll first see the timetable." The sorcerer took out a tiny remote from his sleeves and clicked on a button, displaying the timings on the screen behind him. "Look at it and commit to your memory."

"Kids, this is how your daily activities will go on." Uphiar reminded that their timetable is vastly different from the rest of the students, except for the morning classes, which they have to take with the Elite division students of respective grades.

While everyone will come to school at 8:30 in the morning and leave at 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the class zero students have to spend several hours within the academy and will barely have any free time to spend outside for fun.

It was almost an exact copy of the timetable at the main branch, so, Estella, who was also in Class Zero before was completely familiar with it. The others on the other hand seemed to be a bit troubled.

Uphiar continued, "To increase competitiveness among the students, Elite division students will get an opportunity to enter this class. Six weeks from now, top students from each grade from the Elite Division will join you guys and after that, every month, they'll be challenged by the successive top student of their respective grades to take their place.

While this has nothing to do with you, all of you must keep in mind that the academy is going to spend a lot of funds on this program. So, anyone of you might be dropped from here if you failed to prove yourselves. Whether it's the missions, monthly tournaments, friendly sparring matches, or your soul power improvement, just make sure to not get lazy and slow down your progress."

Uphiar then proceeded to talk about a few more things until a bell rang throughout the classroom and they left for Elite division academic building for the morning classes.

As a fellow student of ninth grade, Azzy was forced to go along with Lark and the other three exchange students. With Gideon being on leave, Azzy could only replace an empty desk and sat alone. However, the new girl doesn't seem like leaving him alone. She outrightly sat beside him amid everyone's gazes.

Azzy used Gideon as an excuse because he wasn't comfortable sitting along with a stranger who is from one of the nine hidden clans. According to the Book of Death, hidden clans protect the world from shadows and seek to maintain the balance like power, natural resources, rare materials, economy, etc…

And according to the Reaper, Azzy knew that he has the potential to topple the entire system, creating an imbalance in the world. That's why, unless he reveals his real identity, his life will be in danger if the hidden clans were to figure out his secrets. Even to date, people are looking for a time traveler.

The fact that Estella came to Aclein city especially for him doesn't feel right in his mind. Azzy wondered whether he's on their radar and whether she's here to confirm her suspicions or something.

In any case, he decided to stay away from her. However, right now, when he was walking towards his seat, Estella followed behind. After he took his seat, she sat beside him without giving him the chance to reject her. Now, if he says anything unpleasant, will it increase her suspicions? He only had speculations.

Until Azzy figures out her intentions, he shouldn't act any different towards her. Or so he thought and stayed silent.

Not even caring whether it was the first day, the familiar language teacher, who also taught Azzy and others last year, directly started the lesson.

Some are paying attention while others are busy with chatting, reading a comic, dozing off, or showing off their cell phones to their desk mates.

Azzy seemed like he was paying attention to the class but in fact, he was just busy absorbing the solar energy little by little and refining it.

Ten minutes into the class, Estella got bored and took a glimpse at Azzy. A thought appeared in her head. She tried to start a conversation, "Azrael. I'm curious about something."

"What is it?" Even though he was concentrated on refining the solar energy, Azzy could still pay attention to his surroundings. Moreover, since he wanted to know her intentions, he didn't ignore the girl.

Estella then asked, "I heard that you are a twin Arcana user and possess two platinum grade Arcana spirits. Is it true?"

"Was she suspecting my second Arcana spirit might be related to time as well as necromancy? Is this the thing she wanted to confirm?" Azzy wondered about it. At first, he felt it was foolish but he can't underestimate the hidden clan. Each one is more or less equally powerful as the Death Clan.

But, he didn't clarify her doubt. After all, he didn't even tell his girlfriend about the Death scythe. How could he reveal it to a stranger whose motives were unknown? In the end, he replied in a plain tone, "no comment."

"What is so mysterious about it?" Estella became curious.

If it is someone he know, Azzy would have probably thought of excuses. However, Estella is nothing to him. He only got irritated and doesn't want to look for lies and then speak more lies to cover them up. So, he tried to end the conversation with a cold reply, "none of your business."

His reply brought a frown on her face but she managed to control her anger by clenching her fist tightly. She spoke with full of confidence, "I guess you might not have faced worthy opponents who forced you to bring out your second Arcana until now. Let's spar later. I'm sure I'll bring your true strength. Perhaps, you will bring mine too."

"My skills aren't suited for friendly spars." Azzy refused her invitation to the spar too. Turning towards her, he then looked into her eyes and said, "It is used for real battles where a person might die if they aren't strong enough."

"Well, you never fought me before." Estella naturally didn't give up. In her dictionary, backing down is the same as getting insulted. She backed down from challenging Claire once due to Uphiar's intervention. Now, she can't back down again just because another person isn't willing. "I'm not underestimating you but even if you use your full strength, I highly doubt whether you can win against me." Her confidence was really over the sky.

"Interesting, very interesting…" The Reaper was rubbing his skeletal chin while looking into the countless futures.
