My Soul card is a Reaper
Chapter 261 Azzy To Mentor Flora

"Since we are already acquainted with each other, let's get right into the subject." Vice-Principal Sahara started her class while everyone else went silent. Unlike the other classes, all the students in class zero are geniuses and weren't the type to fool around when it comes to Arcana studies. So, the class wasn't disturbed in any way.

"The students of grade 9 and grade 10 were already familiar with the card creation. So, you guys will mentor your juniors in the upcoming weeks in my class." Sahara took out a list and announced the teams after giving a brief introduction regarding the card creation.

"Student Glenn," Sahara first called out a name. A ten-year-old girl stood up from her seat. She used to be a student of the Torkai city branch of Eternal Institutions. The city was only 60 kilometers away from Aclein. So, she or her parents also had no problem with transferring.

"Your partner will be student Claire." As she stated the name of her teammate, Glenn who seemed nervous broke out into a smile. With Claire's popularity suddenly boomed due to her Arcana's grade, Glenn was completely satisfied. Not to mention, she's also a healer with a light attribute. In her eyes, it was a jackpot.

"Yes." She cheerfully replied to her.

Sahara continued with the list. "Student Copper of Grade-5 will pair up with student Calder of Grade-10."

"Student Stephanus of Grade-3 will pair up with student Adam of Grade-9"

"Student Annabel of Grade-8 will pair up with student Mia Leveret of Grade-10."

"Student Larch of Grade-8 will pair up with student Lark Sandrou of Grade-9."

"Student Rain Nightingale of Grade-7 will pair up with student Gideon of Grade-9."

"Student Raven Passel of Grade-6 will pair up with student Louis of Grade-9."

"Student Flora of Grade-4 will pair up with student Estella Moon of Grade-9."

"Student Anner Light of Grade-4 will pair up with student Azrael of Grade-9."

"A total of nine teams. You won't be partners for just this class. Along with card creation, even in the other Arcana studies, the seniors must mentor their junior partners, although you will have special instructors. Of course, if you want to change your partners because of any valid reason, you can always talk to your homeroom teacher." Sahara only created partners on the basis of their attributes and gender.

With the female number higher, only Azzy turned out to be an exception but still, she was only 8. As long as Azzy isn't a pedophile, she could trust her with him. Moreover, she was the granddaughter of a peak-rank-8 expert who saved Azzy from the royal ancestor.

Sahara thought Azzy wouldn't treat her badly too. However, she never expected Azzy to state his objection right away. "Ms. Fauns, I would like to mentor Flora instead."

"Eh?" Everyone immediately turned their attention towards him upon hearing his statement. Before anyone else reply, he further spoke, giving out his reasons, "Flora's elder sister used to be the Vice President of our Disciplinary committee. I think I'm more comfortable with mentoring her. Not to mention, she is a commoner. I think classmate Estella will probably be more comfortable with student Anner than Flora."

Azzy didn't hide his reasoning for choosing Flora. Just like he said, he wanted to look after Flora not only because of her elder sister Matilda but also because of Estella. He already saw her nature. With someone like her who thinks of herself above everyone, he wasn't confident on whether she would be able to mentor Flora properly.

Anner's face darkened while surprising the little girl who is sitting beside the grandniece of the King.

Sahara thought for a second and asked the girl, "Student Flora, if you are ok with this arrangement, I will change the pairings."

"I..." Flora glanced at Anner. She could clearly see her friend was disappointed by the rejection. However, getting mentored by Azzy is a rare opportunity. And she also had a bad opinion of Estella. She let on to wonder whether there's even a possibility that this upper-grade arrogant girl will look after her. On the other hand, her friend had a great background. No one dares to mistreat her.

As she fell into a dilemma, Anner tugged her skirt and nodded slowly.

Flora accepted Azzy's offer.

"Good." Sahara nodded and announced the new pairings without even asking the opinions of Estella and Anner. She thought if they had a problem with it, then, they can say it at any time. The pairings can also be changed in the future. So, it isn't a big deal. Moreover, Azzy is the superstar of the academy and is like a family to her, considering he is the disciple of her husband. So, she can be a little biased.

"Okay, please sit according to your teams."

Within a few moments, the seating arrangement has been changed. While the obsessive girlfriend could no longer sit beside Azzy, as Estella sat even far away from Azzy, she was satisfied with that. Despite having an upper hand due to the divine energy, Claire knew that Estella didn't get the chance to give her all by summoning her second Arcana spirit. So, she won't take her lightly.

Unless clear domination was established, Claire thought she will have to be on alert at all times, trying to protect her relationship.

Maybe, it was because she was the one that proposed to him first, or maybe, it's just her insecurity suddenly rose due to Estella's strength. For whatever reason, there was still a hint of tiny suspicion left in her heart.

It was only after Azzy stole Estella's supposed mentee in front of everyone without bothering to ask her permission, the last bit of suspicion has been removed from Claire's heart and she eased up.

The class continued with Sahara started with giving a brief introduction about the author.

"Before we start, let me tell you a thing or two about the guidebook you were informed to purchase beforehand from the academy's store." She lifted the book.

"Hector's guide to Card Creations"

"Hector Magnolis is one of the greatest card creators who lived in the fourth Epoch (60000+ years ago). Although he died very young at the age of forty, nonetheless, his contributions to the creations of skill cards are worth remembering for life. If any of you aimed to become a card master in the future, never forget his name." Sahara's serious expression states that she respects this author very highly as she was asking her students to do the same if they were to walk in her steps. In everyone's eyes, she felt like nothing more than a fanatic.

Azzy couldn't help but remember the two sisters of the Magnolis family. He wondered whether he was their ancestor.

It was then the newly admitted eight-year-old Stephanus raised his hand and asked, "Teacher, what is a card master?"

The students nearby glanced at him from the corner of their eyes as the question was quite foolish but they quickly withdrew their attention upon remembering that he was the youngest.

Estella let out a snort as she crossed her arms, "the one who makes the cards. Don't need to disturb the class with such questions, kid."

Everyone naturally frowned upon hearing her response, especially her haters who don't like her attitude.

Claire, who was one of them, gave a fitting response, "half-knowledge always brings harm to oneself and others, Junior. Just like not everyone will become a master swordsman just because they wield a sword, not everyone who makes the cards will not become a card master. Certain requirements need to be fulfilled before one can call themselves a card master."

"Yes, student Claire is right." Sahara agreed with her, bringing a change of facial expression on Estella once again.

She continued, "However, the requirements are quite different from other professions. There are five stages of a card master, Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, Expert, and Supreme.

First stage: Beginner. This is where all of you are right now except for one student."

Everyone immediately glanced at Azzy who received the highest marks during the previous year's annual examinations. Although the rankings were done according to grades, they still took the examinations of practical Arcana subjects, together.
