My Soul card is a Reaper

Chapter 505 Vesyrn's Battle Strategy

As twenty seconds passed away, Francis Blood threw a skill card onto the ground, creating a giant barrier within the arena to protect the audience from unexpected attacks.

However, this blood barrier was deep red in color. Hence, most of the people had their visions blocked. Even their senses became of no use. Only Arcana Masters above the 5-star realm managed to sense the presence of Velez and Vesyrn.

In that case, how could they watch the battle?

Just as that thought came to the minds of hundreds of spectators, Francis Blood threw another skill card.

This one also appeared to be like a barrier, although golden colored.

Sensing the attribute of light inside the new barrier, Velez and Vesyrn expected this golden barrier will further reinforce the blood barrier as they are under the impression that their death energy will demolish any ordinary one.

However, this barrier didn't serve as a second layer of protection. Once it overlapped with the blood barrier, both of them merged to form a stronger translucent barrier.

With that, everyone could also witness the battle that was about to start within a few seconds.

As the time is up, Francis shot a ball of soul energy into the air. It exploded like fireworks, giving the signal for both of the fighters to start their battle.

Velez took the initiative to attack. He charged forward. Vesyrn clenched his fist but stood in the same spot, waiting for his opponent.

In a fraction of a second, the two fists collided and Velez ended up being the winner of the first round as the force behind his fist overpowered Vesyrn. The latter blasted away for a few meters and crashed onto the ground with his face and clothes smeared in dirt.

In an instant, the arena fell silent. Izora and Kylan Crescent (the Crescent clan's patriarch) simultaneously got up from their seats in worry. Qridus had a frown on his face. He clearly didn't like such an outcome.

As for Azzy, he was busy turning the pages of a large book, looking for something.

Meanwhile, a smirk appeared on Velez's face. He couldn't help but mock his opponent, "Come on… get up, young master Vesyrn. Show me the prowess of your light attribute."

Vesyrn calmly got up on his feet and went into battle stance once again without speaking of anything. He gestured to his opponent to come at him.

Velez was the one who ended up being provoked and he charged forward once again, this time, powering up his fist with soul energy. He also didn't forget to add the Death attribute to the attack.

His attack was once again met with a fist from the opponent. The result ended up being the same.

Vesyrn blasted away dozens of meters and crashed onto the ground. This time, his wrist was bruised.

Once again, he stood up on his feet and silently went into his battle stance.

Prince Velez stared at Vesyrn as he thought, "I don't know what this guy is planning but from the earlier two bouts, it became clear that my physique is stronger than his despite our outer appearances.

At the same time, my death energy cannot penetrate his soul energy system through normal attacks. I need to become serious. And if there's anything he is trying to hide, it will also become clearer."

Soon, the Death Knight made his appearance and Prince Velez conjured a sword made of death energy.

Pointing the energy sword at his enemy, he ordered the Death Knight to go.

On the other hand, Vesyrn refused to summon his Arcana. He continued to stay silent.

The Death Knight and Velez rushed toward Vesyrn before the prince teleported behind his enemy.

"Haaa"

He swung down the energy sword at Vesyrn's shoulder from behind. At the same time, the Death Knight swung its broadsword.

Both of them slashed Vesyrn's shoulders at the same time, spilling his blood. However, they couldn't completely penetrate his tough physique and their weapons were stuck in Vesyrn's shoulders.

"No…" Izora screamed in a bit of worry. But, her hand was quickly grabbed by Azzy. As she looked at him, he pointed at a certain image in the book.

"What is it?" Izora asked in wonder as she shifted her attention to the page. There was a drawing of an undead dragon drawn on it.

Azzy then said, "I know what dad is trying to do."

"Hmm?" Qridus, who was sitting nearby, couldn't help but take a glance at the book. His eyes read the entire details in a fraction of a second and instantly, the worry left his mind.

As the Death Knight is trying to pull out the broadsword, the prince of Freyles, on the other hand, transformed the compressed energy sword into pure death energy and used it to invade Vesyrn's body.

Prince Velez's death energy tried to harm Vesyrn's soul orb but all of it was mysteriously halted moments in one go as if the foreign energy was trapped instead of blocked.

In the meantime, Vesyrn sharply glared at the Death knight standing before him. Glancing at the sword on his left shoulder, he roared, "Get away from me, you evil creature who is reeking of the blood of innocents…"

He clenched his injured right fist and punched the Death Knight with great force.

The Death Knight flew away and crashed onto the ground more than a hundred meters, making Velez alert and distancing himself from his opponent by jumping away.

Vesyrn then pulled out the broadsword that is stuck in his left shoulder and threw it away before speaking to the Death Knight, "creature of darkness, you don't have any place in this battle. Disappear…"

He raised his hand above his head, unleashing a famous and powerful technique of his that is comparable to that of a soul skill.

"Behold the sabers of light."

Tens of golden sabers appeared in the sky one after another as Vesyrn's soul power was reduced by half.

The swords were so dazzling that they made the spectators stare in awe.

And the true experts (7-star and above) who sensed the power of a legendary realm attack in each sword couldn't help but shiver. Even Qridus felt like he could be injured if he was struck by such an attack.

If Vesyrn was really that strong, then, what was his deal with getting beaten up continuously until now?

Maybe, it is because he was trying to test the strength of his opponent?

Almost everyone was under the assumption that Vesyrn will start his battle domination with this attack.

Meanwhile, Prince Velez's heartbeat rose rapidly. "I feel fear?" As realization dawned upon him, it only made him angrier. "You bastard…"

He quickly got out of his daze and sprung up into attack as Vesyrn was paying attention to the Death Knight.

Vesyrn motioned his hand and most of those light swords rained upon the Death Knight. Everyone's attention was momentarily shifted to the Arcana spirit that was pinned to the ground with the light swords piercing it from all directions.

The Death Knight didn't die but instead, it was completely immobilized and suppressed.

Just as everyone was about to rejoice, they spotted a huge energy sword coming out of Vesyrn's neck and he was grabbing his neck while slowly stepping away from Velez through unsteady steps.

A peal of laughter escaped from Prince Velez as he spoke, "If you think your light attribute will recover your injuries later on, you can dream on. My death had long invaded your system and soon, you will…"

Prince Velez's facial expression suddenly changed as a glowing soul card appeared in Vesyrn's hands all of a sudden, and then, in the next second, something incredible happened in the arena.

Vesyrn's injuries disappeared instantly as if he was completely healed somehow and Prince Velez felt the loss of strength in his legs. He was on his knees with injuries all over his body and spat out a mouthful of blood.

With his eyes widened in shock, he growled, "what did you do?"

Vesyrn finally opened his mouth and replied, "I feel like keeping you in suspense…"

He raised his hand and motioned toward Velez, releasing the remaining five light swords to attack Velez simultaneously.

*thud*

Prince Velez fell on his chest and lost consciousness, throwing every spectator in confusion. They just didn't understand what just happened and how it happened.

But, all of them were happy with the fact that their young master has won the battle.

As the audience cheered Vesyrn's name, Azzy read a particular detail on the page, "The seventh soul skill of the Dracolich: Injury transfer. Upon activating the skill, every injury inflicted upon the caster for the past few minutes will be transferred to the enemy."
