My Soul card is a Reaper

Young master Mavis screamed in pain as he was slapped forcefully by his own hand.

"You bastard…"

*Slap*

As he roared in anger, Azzy once again controlled the former\'s hand and made him slap himself on the same cheek.

"I\'ll kill you…"

*Slap*

"My grandpa…"

*Slap*

"Who are…"

*Slap*

"Help…"

*Slap*

"I…"

Mavis managed to control his mouth as he was about to be slapped once again. After the right side of his face became swollen while his palm became reddish, this carefree spoiled young master no longer dared to speak against Azzy. He decided to keep his mouth shut and cooperate.

Of course, that doesn\'t mean he would not get back at Azzy. Hatred develops quickly in the heart of arrogant people and is difficult to leave.

Mavis swore in his head that he would have his revenge no matter the cost. But for now, he\'s gotta do what he had to do.

As a result, he politely followed Azzy back to the chairman\'s office where everyone was waiting for their teammate to return while Lenore was making sure that Rudra doesn\'t act funny or the old man escapes from there.

Soon, Azzy returns with the victim, changing Rudra\'s expression. His face darkened further when Mavis admitted that the chairman was the one who locked him up in the room.

As Azzy then looked at Rudra to see what action he will make now, Lenore spoke, "Okay, the case is solved. Let\'s proceed with the arrest and further interrogation."

She was about to move toward the sofa where the old man was lying down but Rudra stopped her once again. "Wait a second… there must be some misunderstanding. Chairman Xavier wouldn\'t kidnap his own grandson and tell his subordinates to beat him up. Something must have…"

"Cousin, Grandpa didn\'t beat me. This boy did…" Mavis interrupted him while pointing at Azzy.

Suddenly, Rudra paused for a second, then, looked at Azzy along with the others. Anger replaced shock on his face because of misunderstanding, "Azrael, you dare to use violence and forcefully make Mavis a false confession against my grandfather?"

"Eh?" This time, even Azzy was shocked by his accusation. How did it turn this way? Azzy wanted to defend himself but he wasn\'t the culprit here. Why should he clarify himself? He thought that Rudra was trying to put blame on him in a desperate attempt to save his family.

"Captain Rudra, if I\'m in your position, I would also like to protect my family but would never accuse an innocent." Azzy\'s eyes turned cold and he was prepared to beat up his mentor and put him behind bars too. "I have a question. Why didn\'t you include your grandfather\'s name in the suspect list?"

"Hmm… what are you trying to say?" Rudra furrowed his brows.

"It is because he is in cahoots with his grandfather and both of them probably wanted to use this situation to bring down their rivals." Lenore voiced her opinion while summoning her Aqua scythe.

"Using my identity as the captain at Dragon Corps, I formally ask you to surrender yourself for questioning, Captain Rudra. If you resist, then, I will resort to using force."

Maybe, there was some personal feud between her and Rudra, or maybe, it is just her personality. Azzy didn\'t know but he understood clearly that she was prepared to fight Rudra.

However, he doesn\'t have any plans to stop her. If anything, he supported her with his statement, "Captain, your grandfather is no longer sick. And your cousin is also here. Let us proceed with formal procedures in a peaceful manner."

"And what if I don\'t agree to it?" Rudra summons his Trident burning with fiery flames and looked at Azzy and other teammates, "for a while, both of you appeared to be hell-bent on testing my patience. I will tell you again. This is my mission and it is also my family that is involved. What to do with this mission is of no concern to any of you.

I will talk to Chairman Xavier and Mavis before getting back to you guys. Until then, all of you return to your guest rooms and wait. This is my order as the leader of the team. If you have any problems, then, you can officially complain to higher authorities. Am I clear?"

"I\'m patient enough but it looks like you have taken me too lightly, Rudra…" Azzy no longer addressed him as the captain because of the latter\'s actions.

As a person who certainly isn\'t the type to listen to someone\'s orders, Azzy revolted right away. To make sure that no collateral damage occurs, Azzy summoned his death scythe along with Vajra.

*Woof*

The black lightning wolf let out a powerful bark as it landed on the floor, making Lenore\'s aqua scythe quite uncomfortable due to its gold grade and lower realm strength.

Mavis felt suffocated in the presence of the powerful Arcana and he tried to escape from the place. However, just as he turned around and went a couple of steps, Azzy already acted and gave a chop to his neck, knocking him out.

Mavis fell onto the floor and Rudra got angrier upon witnessing his cousin getting attacked. "Azrael… you are going too far…"

Meanwhile, Lenore\'s curiosity toward Azzy increased as her eyes fell on the death scythe and his eyes turned pitch black upon unleashing the Eyes of God soul skill without wasting the time. She decided to be a spectator and didn\'t jump into action. As for the others, they decided to back away so as to not involve in this fight instead of trying to stop it.

Rudra dashed forward with the trident and tried to stab Azzy\'s stomach. The latter blocked it with the death scythe in ease and sparks flew out as they collided.

"Vajra…"

Upon receiving the order, the black lightning wolf unleashed the Soul skill, "Chains of Lightning" from its back and tightly captured the enemy within a fraction of a second because of the close distance.

The paralyzing effect of the black lightning chains went to work very quickly and Rudra started feeling numb all over the body. Even his soul energy felt like it was struggling to move.

His third eye started shivering. "No… don\'t open…"
