My Soul card is a Reaper

Chapter 486 Let's Get Married If I Win Against You

"9 levels are completed. That means I have already passed the test to become his student. The results of the next level don't matter anymore. Not to mention, the boss will even be stronger than this one and I don't have any more soul skills. To defeat it, I will have to depend on activated skill cards that I have saved over the years for emergencies."

As the body disappeared, a familiar-looking door appeared out of thin air. She passed through it 8 times. So, she didn't think too much as she walked through the door.

Before she entered the trial, the guardian god promised her that he would release Princess Cynthia (paternal aunt) as long as she passes through the 3rd level.

After that, the guardian god gave her the option to continue or leave.

As she chose to continue to test her own limits, the guardian god made his appearance and has a talk with her.

He offered her an opportunity to become his student as long as she reaches level 10, the last hurdle in the trial.

Under the persuasion of Excalibur, Princess Leah accepted it and proceeded through the levels.

Now that she was done with her task and was also out of soul skills, combined with the fact she was fighting continuously for almost 9 hours in a row, Leah was too tired and weak-willed to go on further.

That is why she didn't bother to recover her soul energy and walked into the door.

However, just as she walked out of the doorway, stepping onto the last floor of the trial, her eyes met with a Black colored crystalline pillar.

Leah wanted to dodge but it was so close that she didn't even get the opportunity and was struck in the forehead.

Upon being struck by the black crystalline pillar, she flew in the air and crashed onto the ground about fifty meters away right on top of a volcanic geyser.

*Woosh*

The flames burst out of the geyser and struck already an already injured Leah in the back. She lost consciousness.

Sometime later;

"Hmm…"

Leah slowly opened her eyes and the first thing she saw was someone she never expected to see. "Azrael?" She exclaimed in surprise as her eyes widened.

"Sorry about that, Leah. It wasn't on purpose." Azzy apologized in response. It was really an accident.

"What do you mean?" Leah was confused at first before she looked into her surroundings, realizing that she was still in the middle of the trial. "What are you doing here?"

Azzy gave an honest answer, "I'm just like you, unwillingly stuck in the trial."

Leah's expression changed as soon as she heard his words. "So, this is the last level of the trial, huh? I never expected the guardian god to plan to use deception like this. He prepared it so that I will be motivated to finish the trial…"

Azzy didn't know what she was thinking at the moment but at the very least he could sense that her soul orb is empty and no Arcana spirits were on her side. Hence, he was worried about being attacked and instead, wanted to have a normal conversation with her like a friend. It's been a while since he had done such a thing.

However, Leah's thoughts were entirely different from his. She was under the belief that he is nothing but an illusion and is already planning her battle strategy for she doesn't want to admit her loss against Azzy's duplicate without even trying.

As her battle intent reignited in her heart, Leah played along and slowly rose to her feet, "Did you also meet the guardian god and go through the test?" She asked.

Azzy didn't suspect anything and answered, "Yes and No. I was actually about to return to Aclein and he suddenly brought me to his domain. As for the test, I didn't go through anything. He just directly accepted me as his disciple and ordered me to be your opponent."

"It's a lie. Hmpf, Guardian god, you are purposely trying to rile me up." Leah didn't believe his words but still, she need to make her opponent believe that she was fooled.

Hence, she continued to play along with the story. Leah faked her reaction by letting out a sigh of relief as if she was genuinely happy to see him. "Thank goodness. I thought I would meet a supreme realm monster as an opponent. If it is you, then, I can hope for a fair match."

"Fair match?" Azzy raised his eyebrows. He felt like something is off with the princess of Camelot. "What do you propose?"

Leah explained her situation and said, "So, that's why I propose a fair battle where we use neither Arcana nor the soul skills. Of course, natural energy is also prohibited."

In Azzy's view, Leah was never the type to propose such bizarre cowardly conditions that make him lose his advantage. However, since he was confident in beating her in any type of condition, he agreed to it. "Alright…"

Azzy's agreement only made Leah more complacent. She thought that she trapped the guardian god using her wits and went on asking him to let her recover the soul energy before the start of the battle.

Azzy took a giant leap away from Leah and gestured to her to make preparations for the upcoming battle. He dismissed the humanoid black lotus that was latching onto his back and stood straight.

Staring at him from far away, Leah thought as she was recovering her soul power, "You are not fighting your love, Leah. It is just an illusion, probably created by your own mind. You went through such things before. So, you should be able to handle it. Azrael wouldn't show anything new.

But, you cannot underestimate the guardian god's intelligence. He might add new abilities for my opponent to use. Thankfully, I made sure that he won't use any of his Arcana or soul skills in battle. So, you should do fine. All you need is one good opportunity and you can end this battle."

As she recovered her soul power and went into a battle stance, Azzy looked at her and ask, "Any last words?"

He just said that casually for he doesn't want this battle to be too serious. But, Leah's reply to him completely threw him off balance.

"Yes… let's get married if I win against you."

"Eh?"
