My Soul card is a Reaper -
Chapter 304 Invasion From Outer Space Part-13
Four Protos spears were conjured around black lotus before one of them flew towards the enemy.
Upon seeing it, Captain Virgil was now almost sure that Azzy had turned invisible.
Clicking on the trigger, he sneered, "what a stupid tactic. That Vesyrn guy is atleast better. He managed to hide himself well but this kid, what's the use of turning invisible when your position clearly gives you away."
The plasma energy orb fired by the cannon cleanly destroyed the Protos spear and further proceeded towards the black lotus.
Meanwhile, the rain of death continued to fall. So, the slow-moving but powerful plasma orb was being attacked by the black rain and its power was chipped away at a rapid pace. Instead of an increase in size, the plasma orb was actually decreasing while losing power at the same time.
By the time it reached the black lotus, its size is only one-third of its original size.
"Azrael, now," The Reaper gave a signal to Azzy when the plasma orb was only a couple of feet away from hitting the black lotus.
Tiny Azzy closed his eyes and concentrated on the soul orb. A suction force erupted from his soul orb just like when he absorbs the natural energy.
The plasma orb was completely absorbed by Azzy. The Reaper became busier to refine it into his soul energy.
His SP (soul power) was increased by 1544 in one go.
A trace of surprise appeared on both Azzy as well as Virgil. The latter was surprised that his attack was nullified by a kid just like that and the former was surprised that he can just make use of the enemy's attacks to become stronger.
"It really worked, Chronos." Azzy excitedly spoke to the Reaper.
The Reaper replied, "Didn't I say that you are the perfect nemesis to that outer space warrior?"
"But, why?" Azzy questioned the Reaper in confusion. Previously, he was in hurry. So, he just followed the instructions. But now that there's time, he thought he might as well clear his doubt.
The Reaper went into a lecture mode, "It is because he was attacking with plasma energy. Last year, you have already learned about the matter but in textbooks, they usually show only three. Solid, liquid, and Gas. Plasma is the fourth state of matter. It exists in every star in the universe including our sun.
And plasma energy is produced when the fusion takes place in a controlled and magnetized environment like the stars.
On our planet, some of the countries possessed plasma generation but their purpose is only to create clean and renewable energy. But, it is by no means affordable.
I guess the organization behind this guy managed to extract the energy and weaponized it.
As for your absorption, unlike the soul energy of Arcana Masters, these attacks made of plasma energy don't belong to him. It was an external matter. He was just using that little toy as the medium to attack.
At your current stage, you cannot absorb it directly from the stars for their distance is too far and you haven't mastered the 'Nature Absorption' sage technique.
You must obtain this guy's suit before it falls into other hands." The Reaper's voice turned a bit serious at the end.
But, Azzy paid no heed to his words, "I don't steal things that belong to some else."
The Reaper knew Azzy the most. But, he also wanted to get rid of his naïve thoughts. As a person with strong beliefs can't change abruptly without any big incident, he can only be changed gradually.
So, the Reaper twisted his words a little bit to convince Azzy, "Don't treat it as stealing. Think of it as compensation for almost erasing your presence from this timeline. If that happens, everything you have learned during the past year would have turned worthless. Not to mention, we don't really want the suit but the energy conversion device implanted in it. Your absorption speed will get a lot faster with it."
"Hmm, it is logical." Azzy was almost convinced. But, before he replies anything, another plasma orb was fired by the enemy.
This time, he didn't attack it with the Protos Spear. He even dismissed the rumbling dark cloud and let the attack reach him.
Once again, upon reaching the black lotus, the orb started to get diminished, eventually disappearing into thin air. Azzy's soul power was increased by more than 5000.
"Just what is going on? Can this kid really nullify the plasma energy attacks? Maybe, he isn't even a kid but an old freak who had the appearance of a kid. The mutants in this world are different from the species of other planets." Captain Virgil furrowed his brows.
He couldn't help but glance at his bare shoulder. The suit still hasn't self repaired. Perhaps, he should get away and wait for Neo to replace him. "Hmm, or maybe, I should attack him a close range and see if I can kill him. Let's go with the same tactic I used against that healer. There was no dark cloud or that black rain either to stop me, anyway."
Captain Virgil flew towards the floating black lotus at his peak speed. Azzy was taken aback by his sudden move but there was enough distance between them for him to get prepared for any attack.
Azzy dismissed the hourglass and calmly waited.
Upon covering half of the distance, Captain Virgil dismissed the large cannon and took out some tiny object from his suit. It became bigger, turning out to be some kind of another weapon.
It looked like a futuristic handgun with two barrels placed at the top and bottom. The top barrel was a bit bigger compared to the lower one. Apart from that, it has two triggers, each one for the respective barrel.
Virgil clicked the second trigger and fired a web-like attack, where electrical sparks can be seen dancing all over it. The web became as it tried to envelop the black lotus.
When it was shot, it was only at the size of a fist but when it reached Azzy, it was as big as a three-story building and it wasn't slow either. All it needed was a little more than 1 second to reach the target.
Azzy closed his eyes and completely absorbed the electrical energy from the web, leaving behind a normal web made of high tension wire that was contracted while binding him and the black lotus tightly.
The use of the web was to stun the targets or electrocute them. Without the electrical energy, it was no big deal. Azzy simply used energy eruption and blasted it away into thousand pieces.
"Just what in the hell is this guy?" Captain Virgil was never more serious. "Let's try for one last time." He clicked on the first trigger and held it. A fiery beam of plasma energy was shot towards him.
This was super fast and Azzy didn't get the time to absorb it. But, he always had a backup in cases like these. The Reaper immediately stepped up just before the plasma beam pierces Azzy along with the black lotus.
The beam didn't do anything to the black lotus and even that was completely absorbed into Azzy's body and helping his soul power rise by a significant amount.
"What the…" Captain Virgil's eyes widened. "Okay, I need to escape from here."
