My Soul card is a Reaper

If Loren had been a human, she would have been punched by now but as a werewolf, her senses were very keen, her reflexes were top-notch, and her sight was so that she clearly saw Azzy arrived before her within a fraction of a second and already threw a punch at her abdomen.

She dodged to the side and attempted to slash at him with her claws but Azzy\'s reflexes are also faster than her.

He kicked his feet and jumped to the side. Unfortunately, unlike her, he hadn\'t stabilized his realm yet. So, his footing went out of control and Azzy collided with a table, pushing it away.

That gave an opportunity for Loren. She dashed towards him and successfully punched him in the side of his waist.

He flew in the air and crashed onto the wall.

"Hmpf, a brat dares to challenge just because he has a similar amount of Soul Power," Loren snorted as she looked at him, falling on the floor while making a crack on the sturdy wall.

"Rael…" Claire screamed in worry, losing her concentration for a moment. Her two opponents, who made a hole out of the wall and fell outside, returned with full transformations. Both of them became bulkier.

Meanwhile, Azzy got up on his feet. He was feeling a sharp pain at his waist but his expressionless face gave off the impression that nothing happened. That irked the female alpha werewolf. With about 20 meters distance between him and Loren, he mumbled, "good."

"What do you mean by good?" Loren growled as she charged forward at her peak speed. It only took her two seconds to cover the distance.

As she almost reached him, all of a sudden, three black energy needles of an adult human-sized appeared in her sight. All of them are in rank-6, reducing his soul energy by more than half.

One of the Protos Spears flew towards her. Because of her extraordinary senses, she instantly sensed the power inside the attack. For some reason, her intuition says that she shouldn\'t face it.

As she attempted to dodge, the needle, which is as fast as a sound, pierced her.

*Ugh*

Loren groaned in pain with her upper left arm was wounded. Her recovery ability healed her but the Protos energy that is invaded her body troubled her a bit. She proceeded to expel it away.

However, Azzy won\'t give her a chance. He threw another Protos Spear at her. This time, Loren managed to dodge one but the Spear is a target-locked attack. After missing its target, the Protos Spear made a U-turn and pierced her back before she attempted dodging again.

Azzy didn\'t end his assault there. He threw the last one at her. The Protos-Spears are extremely lethal for lower realm Arcana Masters but for someone like Loren, they aren\'t life-threatening. The worst that could happen is the destruction of her soul orb/core and permanent paralysis.

That\'s why Azzy didn\'t hesitate to attack her with rank-6 ones. However, Loren proved to be a tough opponent.

After experiencing the two of them, she realized that she could no longer hold back. She went into a full transformation into a gray wolf.

In this form, usually, one will be the same as a beast, can only recognize whether it is a human or a fellow werewolf, based on their smell ability.

However, she was different somehow. She was in full control for some reason.

*Awooo*

Letting out a howl, she used energy eruption just as the third one was about to pierce her chest, expelling the Protos energy from its body. She managed to destroy the remaining Protos Spear before it pierced her.

Meanwhile, the energy eruption from her affected others in the room. Whether it is a friend or a foe, everyone who was hit by the energy got blasted away. Claire hit the barrier and landed on the floor.

The two werewolves, who were just about to attack Claire, also got crashed onto the barrier. Seeing the barrier placed outside the cell remained undamaged, she sighed in relief. If they become casualties in this fight, she will be the one that will be blamed.

She slowly got up on her feet but this time, she didn\'t put off her guard and decided to focus on her own battle.

But, to her surprise, the two fully transformed werewolves didn\'t get up as both of their gray-colored energy flew out of their body and went towards Loren who absorbed it and replenished 20% of her soul energy almost instantly. They transformed back into their original human forms and fell unconscious.

"Trixie, Chase, and Stuart," I permit you to go all out.

After giving another order, Loren jumped into the hole and landed in the adjacent room where Azzy was fallen, earlier.

The three Arcana Masters left behind fully transformed into wolves and started attacking their enemies without caring about defense.

Meanwhile, Azzy dusted off his clothes and got on his feet. He waited for her without intending to recover his soul power.

"You have unique soul energy, brat," commented Loren before standing on four legs like a normal beast. "But, you have no future left, any longer. You will face the consequences for trying to kill me."

She charged towards him on four legs. Her speed reached peak-rank-7. Even for Azzy, she was barely visible. If he had activated the Eyes of God, it would be a different issue but for now, all he could do is depend on his senses.

As Loren was focusing on killing him, this time, Azzy focused on trying his best to evade her attacks in the small residential chamber with a little bit of space to move around.

Azzy was biding his time so as to get used to Loren\'s style of fighting. He thought it will be a good practice before entering the world league.

Of course, in the meantime, he was hoping to give Claire some time to defeat her opponents. After all, this is her mission. He doesn\'t want her to feel like she contributed less.

This way, once she was done with her opponents, she will assist his summons to take care of the rest while he will finish the boss.

Little did he expect that he would have to return to the laboratory very soon.

As Azzy was getting used to her attack pattern while slowly stabilizing his speed, Loren growled in anger, "I will rip you to shreds. Face me if you have guts, coward…"

Azzy who was used to her speed successfully counterattacked with a powerful punch, almost in the next second.

As she crashed onto the floor, he said in a straight tone, "If you want to defeat me, you have to be faster. Your speed isn\'t enough."

Maybe, his words triggered her. She suddenly let out a laugh, "There is another way to defeat you. I\'ll show you a wonderful scene to remember for a lifetime."

Loren stopped moving. Azzy wondered what is she doing but just a few seconds after, a scream escaped from the other room where Claire is fighting.

"No, stop it. Vajra, help me…"

Azzy hurriedly dashed forward and jumped from the hole, reentering the lab.

The barrier has suddenly disappeared. Vajra and Aurora pinned respective werewolves. Hydra and Claire were blocking the last one.

"Hahaha, it\'s futile." Loren landed on the floor and snapped her fingers. All of a sudden, the dozens of unconscious hostages blew up, drenching Claire and the others in blood.

Azzy was stunned on the spot with his eyes widened.
