My Soul card is a Reaper

2 legendary realm experts (rank 8), 14 Exalt realm experts (rank 7), and more than 30 Upper Elite realm experts (rank 6) entered the barrier one after another to finish off 16 demons that were on the defensive.

The demons were protecting their leader who was taking an ample amount of time to transform. The Arcana Masters didn\'t know how strong the leader of the enemies is going to be, but none of them were interested to wait until it is over.

They started attacking the demons.

By the time Azzy and Lenore entered the field, it appeared that half of the battle is already over. Only 7 demons were alive, and apart from superficial injuries, no Arcana Master was hurt. Maybe, it is because the demons were never on the offensive.

Looking at the scene, Azzy shook his head in a bit of disappointment, "there\'s no need for us, Ms. Lenore. The higher-ups overestimated their strength too much and called for an emergency, deploying every available true expert."

Lenore was also under the same impression. She nodded in agreement. She anticipated a tough battle ahead but it is just a one-sided one.

Perhaps, the same thing was also going through the minds of others. Several Arcana Masters who were late in action halted their movements and became spectators as the two legendary realm experts and a few Exalt realm experts managed to kill four more demons.

Not even a minute has passed since the battle had begun and only three more demons were left to be killed, in which one of them still hasn\'t completed its transformation while the other two were looking everywhere.

"Captain Lyman, you take the left one and I take the right one." General division\'s commander, Harvey Blue suggested to his fellow 8-star realm Arcana Master.

Both of them split and went in different directions to take out the remaining two demons which appeared to be quite stronger compared to the fallen ones.

Just as the both of them were about to engage in battle with their respective opponents, suddenly a pair of hands grew from the wispy smoke and stabbed those demons simultaneously, taking the humans by surprise.

The two demons with bear and gorilla heads transformed back into wisps of smoke before they were absorbed into the last one and completed the transformation.

Everyone expected the boss to have a demonic appearance like the rest but instead, they saw a man dressed as a soldier in red armor, riding a red horse and wearing a golden crown on his head.

He looked around curiously, "Ho, this is the current human world, eh?"

The demon general ignored the humans before him and paid attention to the gate of Tartarus and the three powerful humans who are imprisoning the wisps of smoke that couldn\'t get out. He broke out into a smile, "Poor Zagan and Baal. They couldn\'t escape and were held back by weak mortals. Interesting, indeed."

Meanwhile, sweat beads appeared on the foreheads of Captain Lyman and Commander Harvey as they attempted to sense the terrifying power within this demon.

They took a glance at each other and nodded as if they came to an arrangement through telepathy. Both of them unleashed their strongest attacks without hesitation.

Captain Lyman\'s saber released a tremendous amount of lightning energy as he aimed it at the enemy. Meanwhile, Commander Harvey merged with his jackal Arcana to become something similar to that of a werewolf, or in this case, should one call him a were-jackal?

On the other hand, the demon general was calm. Without even bothering to look at the torrent of lightning energy from his right, he raised his hand and snapped his fingers.

A metal shield appeared out of nowhere and blocked the attack. All the lightning energy was completely absorbed by the shield and then, a dozen swords imbued in dark energy appeared above the shield before cutting through the air and attacking the enemy.

As Captain Lyman dodged the swords and further tried to defend himself by conjuring a barrier using his soul energy, the demon general turned his head to the left, looking at the werejackal. A smile appeared on his face as his pupils narrowed for a moment.

"You are a mortal who suffered a lot in your life." The demon general started speaking to Commander Harvey, who was taken aback as the former continued to recite his life story.

"Father\'s death, mother\'s remarriage, physical abuse from stepfather and step-siblings, ten successive love break ups in the span of 25 years, followed by a forced arranged marriage, wife having an extramarital affair, divorce, daughter trying to commit suicide over love failure, cutting off ties with your family, spending in loneliness for nearly a thousand years in the wild.

Child, why do you even have faith in weak humanity? Come and join my side. I\'ll show you the reality. Everything is just an illusion. Only the power is truth."

Commander Harvey already fell into a daze as the demon was talking earlier. And by the time the latter was finished, this legendary realm expert\'s eyes turned amber with no visible pupils.

He fell onto one of his knees like a knight, "Milord, I\'m awaiting your orders."

The demon general looked at the surprised Arcana Masters who were frozen on the spot by the sudden turn of events. He pointed at them, "kill everyone."

The werejackal rose to his feet and charged forward under the effects of mind control.

"What the hell is that demon, Chronos?" Azzy screamed inwardly as he saw the commander of the general division attacking his own allies while Captain Lyman of Zero Squad was continuously being bombarded by swords.

"Fallen Angel Berith, the chief secretary of hell, and one of the 72 demon generals of Ars Goetia. He can create weapons without the need for soul energy and he can see one\'s past and future. He can also take control of the minds of enemies with just a simple speech. You have the worst opponent, Azrael," replied the Reaper.

After a pause, he added, "however, fortunately, his power is quite limited. He can barely use 10% of his power in this form. So, you can take care of him. But, you need preparations, starting with covering your face with a mask just like that girl."

"Eh?"
