My Soul card is a Reaper
369 World league: Junior division - Race to the top 8 (part-2)
Unlike previous matches where Mia always stayed in the back and attacked from far away, this time, she joined the rest to charge forward.
Team Centro was surprised by her actions.
Neither the opponents nor the spectators know that Mia originally trained in close combat fight until Azzy had shown her the path of the bow. She later picked up the gun just a couple of days before the start of the semester.
Dashing forward at full speed, Mia pulled out two custom-made handguns from her storage card. She charged them up with her soul energy before speaking to her teammate, "Claire, I'm ready."
Claire, who was leading everyone, nodded and raised her sword, unleashing her strongest soul skill, right from the start.
<strong>"Soul skill: Descent of the Heavenly guardian"</strong>
After transforming into a divine Angel of the Heavens, Claire shot an orb of light from her palm. Its size is almost similar to that of a tennis ball but the power it was holding inside isn't something to be ignored.
This isn't the first time Claire had used such an attack. So, the opponent team's captain, Cyrus knew how to counter this light orb that will explode as soon as it touches something.
The 6ft tall who looked like a female bodybuilder gave the orders as soon as she saw the orb. "Willie, block it."
Willie, the only member of the team who is a beast summoner, ordered his metal golem to protect everyone.
The 18-foot Golem stood in front of Team Centro to take it head-on. Looking at the actions of the opponent team, Claire shook her head with a smile, "You are forgetting that I can control every part of my energy when I'm in this mode. Every part…"
As the orb of light almost reached the golem, Claire shouted, "Capture." The divine energy inside the light orb became violent all of a sudden.
Instead of hitting it straight head-on, the light orb transformed itself into a fishing net of light energy, capturing the golem and its owner who was standing behind it.
Gideon couldn't help but whistle, "look at that."
Once the golem was temporarily down, Mia clicked the trigger of the left handgun. Consuming her soul energy, a laser beam was shot from the barrel and pierced the forehead of the Golem and made a hole before escaping from the back of its head.
"Now, aim for its chest area, about 23 centimeters from the center." Azzy, who was running at others' pace, passed the instructions. His eyes were pitch black at the moment as he already activated the soul skill, Eyes of God.
Without wasting any time, Mia shot another laser beam.
Captain Cyrus came to his rescue by throwing an explosive grenade and a smoking grenade at her own teammate.
While it didn't cause much damage to Willie or the Golem due to their tough skin and protective gear, it sure made them lose their balance and both of them fell down, escaping the path of the laser beam.
It missed them and went past the team members of Team Centro, striking the barrier. At the same time, the smoking grenade released an enormous amount of smoke and covered over a 30-meter radius. Except for Azzy, none of the team members of Twilight could spot their opponents.
"tch, they were well prepared…" Mia's brows twitched a little. The others stopped in their tracks.
Maybe, Claire had already expected this outcome or maybe, she doesn't care. Whatever the case, she wasn't ready to back off from this challenge.
Azzy then spoke, "I think it's time for you to use that card. And Claire, you can go wild."
Claire nodded and created another light orb while the others took out a skill card, which was handed by Azzy just before the start of the match. Those are not activated skill cards. So, the users must use their own soul power to activate them. As a result, it is allowed according to the rules.
While the others activated the unique skill card, which was crafted by Azzy, Claire launched her orb of light into the smoky area where the Golem was earlier fallen down.
*Boom*
The explosion of energy could be seen because of the flash of light but as it disappeared in a moment, the thick smoke reappeared and continued to hide the presence of Team Centro. However, the audience didn't care about it. All of their attention was on Team Twilight because of a wonder they have witnessed.
Meanwhile, Claire, with her soul energy refilled almost instantly, no longer held back her strength and threw light orbs one after another, targeting the area within the smoke.
Some turned into Swords, some turned into nets, and some just exploded. However, Team Centro still managed to evade all of them. It's because everyone was wearing special goggles to have an infrared vision. Coupled with the fact that they were skilled athletes and everyone is only focusing on dodging, Cyrus and her teammates gave an impression as if they can indeed take on Team Twilight.
Soon, the smoke dispersed into the air and everyone's vision became clear. As they kept on evading the attacks one after another, they didn't have the time to think but now that the vision is clear, Cyrus and others saw that only Claire is present. None of the others could be seen even through infrared vision goggles.
She was about to throw another smoke grenade earlier but now, she and the others could only look around and above to find the opponents.
"Everyone, use your senses." She ordered and activated her sensing abilities. While she couldn't sense Azzy and Louis because of their high soul power, she managed to find the location of Gideon and Mia.
Along with her, the other teammates, Cliff and Willie were also successful in finding the presence of the two Elite realm experts who used the Erasure skill card of 5-star grade.
As the effect of the Erasure skill card disappear due to the usage of energy, Mia and Louis didn't make any movements other than waiting for an opportunity to strike while evading Claire's random attacks like their opponents. On the other hand, Gideon used his lightning attribute power and powered up himself before attacking the weakest one.
Rosendo Wool is the third son of the noble Wool family, hailing from the Everon nation, which is home to the royal family of Magnolis.
Like his other members of the family, he awakened a healing type Arcana in the form of Parsnip.
Parsnip is a plant-based Arcana that typically looks like a carrot, although in off-white color. Its Attribute is light and therefore, he can heal himself and the others.
Based on the previous matches' footage, he was known to be quite aggressive and reckless like Claire without caring about possible injuries.
That's why the team decided to target him while he was still busy evading the attacks.
At his full speed, Gideon rushed towards Rosendo Wool who had no idea about the incoming attack. But, the captain had sensed something is moving. Judging by the high speed, she immediately guessed that it was Gideon.
Just as she was about to warn him while evading another explosion of the light orb, all of a sudden, out of nowhere, a powerful kick was planted in her abdomen. She blasted away.
"Captain…" The others panicked a little bit but just a moment later, Rosendo also crashed onto the ground as Gideon gave a powerful punch to him in the abdomen, followed by a knee strike to his chin.
