My Soul card is a Reaper
Chapter 484 The Nanotech Prototype Weapon From A Sci-Fi Movie

Roughly 30 minutes later;

"This is everything about me, Mr. Garcia."

She briefly explained how she belonged to the Arcturian Empire, a galactic force formed by the humans who left Gaia millions of years ago during the apocalypse period.

After stealing an important piece of the program, which is Aria herself, a super A.I. that not only has its own thoughts and feelings like a human but is also strong enough to hack any satellite or program, Dr. Mac escaped her space station and entered a wormhole, eventually landing on this planet, a few decades ago.

Because she had done a huge favor to him, Azzy patiently listened to her boring sci-fi story which appeared to be more like she was bragging about how she came from an advanced civilization.

He waited until she was done and asked, "What is it that you wanted from me?"

Dr. Mac replied, "I want to study your energy. Based on what Aria reported to me so far, your unique energy could be called unknown. At first, I thought it was anti-matter but your energy only annihilates the selective matter, not everything. Not to mention, when anti-matter particles get contact with the matter, electrons and positrons will collide, and an explosion similar to that of a nuclear bomb would be generated.

But, it didn't happen even in one instance. So, either there must be another type of force that was interfering with its properties or there must be an unknown factor.

Look, I'm a researcher and I want to explore such mysteries. That's all. In exchange for your cooperation, I would like to not only present you the Nano-tech prototype suit but also give you a valid piece of information on your girlfriend."

Even when this alien scientist was talking about time travel, his soul Energy (most likely his Protos energy), he stayed calm. He also intended to cooperate as long as she doesn't leak his secret.

After meeting the guardian god for the second time and then bonding with three cosmic gems, he was actually less worried about the hourglass and the threat that comes with the leakage. He even intended to use the ability of time after mastering the hourglass and proudly use it in public.

But, when Dr. Mac brought up the topic of Claire, his heartbeat suddenly spiked up. "What do you know about her?" he couldn't help but ask.

Dr. Mac let out a smile and dragged her back to the large computer screen. She showed him the picture of tiny dots with a night background.

Scrolling down at a rapid pace for a whole minute, she spoke, "This is a part of the observable universe that we collected back when I was working at the space station.

Do you know that there are about 2.8 trillion galaxies exist in our universe? Some galaxies are small having 200,000 solar masses and some are as big as 10 million light-years in diameter.

Some have trillions of solar systems while some don't have any solar systems at all. Heck, there are some rogue stars that wander off into intergalactic space.

However, no matter what kind of planet, star, or galaxy, there was never a case the gravity didn't affect them until we found this…"

She stopped scrolling and clicked on a certain dot with a circle on top of it.

The image was enlarged and Azzy saw the graphical video of an irregularly shaped object roaming the space without following any pattern.

Sometimes, this galaxy would even collide with a galaxy but instead of merging or anything, it just passes through it.

Pointing at the image, Dr. Mac said, "I believe this is the home of Gods, Angels, and other cosmic entities. This is where you can replace the daughter of Michael."

"Eh? How do you know that?" Azzy was taken aback at first, wondering whether this lady spied on all of his conversations or something.

Dr. Mac probably guessed his thoughts. She won't deny it but she doesn't want Azzy to back off from their deal. Hence, she gave the answer that she was already prepared beforehand.

"Alongside you, Claire was also an object of interest for me. The fact that she and her elder sister have angelic wings with their father being unnamed is a suspicious factor. You can guess the rest…

Anyways, that's not the point. The point here is that I may have found a way to get there."

"How?" Azzy finally turned curious. He would give anything to see her again as long as it doesn't touch his bottom line.

Dr. Mac then explained her method, which surprisingly is familiar to Azzy.

"It is called Aura tracing. Now, it is usually impossible for Arcana Masters to sense the aura of humans unless they reveal it themselves but I have a device to register one's aura as long as their soul energy is inserted into it.

Now, this is where it gets slightly complicated. I need Gaia's aura to trace it back to the original source. Once it is collected, I register it in a teleportation machine that can directly teleport us to that place so-called heaven. I have already built a working prototype but haven't tested it outside of our galaxy yet. So, I need more time.

But then again, this task won't be done within days too. In fact, it might even take years. After all, Gaia's soul energy can only be found at the center of the planet and Aria alone cannot accomplish it. Not to mention, the risks involved in it.

Based on the information we collected on you so far, you will be fine when you enter the Supreme realm.

And also, we have demon Berith's soul energy registered too. Theoretically, we can make a visit to hell without dying too…"

Azzy didn't speak for a while and he was busy conversing with the Reaper, asking him whether this crazy plan is viable or not.

As the Reaper gave his nod, further commenting that the task is quite easier, Azzy agreed to the deal proposed by the scientist.

"Okay, I will go to the center of the earth and collect some of Gaia's soul energy."

A smile bloomed on the lady scientist and she quickly responded by taking out an object that looked like a metal stick. "What is it?" asked Azzy.

Dr. Mac then pressed something with her index finger while grabbing it and the object transformed into a scythe similarly looking to Azzy's Death scythe but with a luminescent plasma blade.

"Oh, I have seen a similar thing in a sci-fi movie in the 90s, except that it is a saber." Azzy couldn't help but comment as his eyes fell on the weapon (Plasmascythe).

"That is fiction and this is reality, Mr. Garcia," replied the scientist before further adding that this blade doesn't need any sort of the so-called kyber crystals or anything.

While this prototype can be used as offense (melee: scythe form, range: assault rifle) and defense (shield form), allowing Azzy to use its plasma energy for a skill attack that is similar to his Slice of death (soul skill), it has its obvious drawbacks too.

First of all, it doesn't have any automatic plasma energy regeneration or anything. The battery power cell located within the handle is the one that provides the plasma energy. Hence, it might run out at any time whenever he used the plasma energy to shoot bullets or energy attacks.

Fortunately, Dr. Mac's lab has manufactured so many plasma batteries that Azzy could change them if he was ever run of out plasma energy.

The other drawback is that the batteries are quite expensive. Unless Azzy decides to be at her beck and call, he cannot waste them unnecessarily and ask for more batteries. So, Azzy should be careful with its usage.

Thankfully, Dr. Mac already thought of this beforehand and added another set of functions in this high-tech weapon. Apart from the power source, the handle also contained a Sagekron core, which was also used in the adamantine gloves she gave to him in their first meeting.

The Sagekron core has the function of constantly absorbing natural energy from the surroundings and storing it.

There were no functions or skills added to the weapon but if Azzy ever ran out of plasma batteries and soul power, he could use the gun to shoot bullets made of natural energy, otherwise known as SK-bullets.

Azzy was originally not interested in this nanotech prototype at all. In fact, he was also quite wary of this alien who knows a little bit too much about him and yet presents him with valuable presents.

When one feeds something too much, there is quite a possibility that the ending won't be good. And Azzy doesn't want to be a pig that wanted to be slaughtered too. His wariness of her only increased further when he was offered a high-tech weapon for something as simple as letting her research the Protos energy.

However, he had the Reaper, the Death clan, WAMO, and even the guardian god as his support. Forget about them, he could also time travel to the past to change things now. In the worst of worst things, his future self might come and pull him out of trouble.

That's why he decided to go along with whatever the scientist has planned for him.

"Thanks…"

After placing the weapon in his storage card, Azzy excused himself from that place without wasting much time.

Since he came along with Mia, he felt the need to accompany her to the Presidential Palace and then went on his way to return to Aclein city where his grandpa and grandpa's sister were waiting for him.

However, it appeared that the impatient guardian god decided to not let him have his way and drag the matter.

As soon as he left the Presidential Palace, Azzy suddenly was ambushed by specks of light and disappeared.
