"That was some good technique." Leah was a little bit impressed by Claire's light beams that managed to pin down the Draco Galarian.
Not intending to waste any time on how she managed to unlock the seal, Leah quickly dashed towards them. After all, to split the spirit core, she had to be the one that finish the beast and can't let Azzy or his girlfriend acquire all the spoils of the victory.
On the way, she saw Claire and Azzy were talking about something instead of taking care of the beast. As she was more than a hundred meters away from them, she couldn't hear their words and neither was she interested in it. So, she didn't bother about it and continued to rush forward.
All of a sudden, Claire kowtowed before Azzy. She didn't understand what Claire was doing. Was she expressing her gratitude for Azzy's help? Does that mean Azzy is the one that unlocked the seal on her Arcana? But, why would she do that? He was her boyfriend. As far as she knows about relationships, in general, no girl would do such a thing for her guy. Then, was Claire kowtowing to this Tezca her Arcana mentioned? Or was it Agatha kowtowing to Tezca?
With several thoughts running through her mind, Leah continued to run.
By the time she reached there, the sword of Michael and the Reaper returned to their respective mindscapes, letting their hosts return to reality. The first thing they saw is the pitiful state of their enemy.
"Graaaaa" "You mot***f*****s, leave me…" The beast was roaring, cursing, struggling with all its might but it couldn't move an inch. The sacred pillars of light thoroughly restricted its movements.
"Wow…" Azzy exclaimed inside, looking at the light beams. With the help of God's Eyes, on the light beams that nailed the beast to the ground, he saw mysterious runes were engraved on them.
Azzy never saw such symbols before, leaving him in wonder why such things are even there on an attribute energy attack. Even though he didn't understand what's going, at the very least, he knew that it was the work of his girlfriend or more like her Arcana's cuz the last time he saw her, she was being controlled by the beast. "Are you alright?" He asked her.
Meanwhile, Claire was shocked to the core. Not only did she see how familiar yet unfamiliar beams of light struck the enemy but she also sensed the changes within her soul card. Azzy's question brought to reality and she nodded with uncertainty, "I guess… What just happened?"
"I will tell you later but first, let's take care of him." Azzy turned towards the Draco Galarian. His summoning also followed the suit, although they became quite wary of her, especially Vajra who earlier sensed the consciousness of an annoying pest that it doesn't like.
Very soon, Leah reached the place followed by her energy clones and her platinum grade Arcana. Despite not wanting to do it, she still praised Claire, "Good job, Claire. Now, before it escapes from the restrictions, let's finish it."
For the next couple of minutes, the mountainous region of Zragos was filled with the screams and curses of the Draco Galarian while it was being bombarded with numerous attacks.
Claire finished the beast with a stab in its neck with a purple energy sword, causing a little bit of envy on Claire who could only create such energy swords in a special state like right now.
With the final hit, the Spirit core of the Draco Galarian left behind the corpse and floated in the air. Unlike the other spirit cores, this giant sphere looked too beautiful in the eyes of Azzy, Claire, and Leah. For a moment, even Leah had wanted to snatch this delicacy for herself.
It wasn't that it literally looks beautiful. With several attributes mixed in it, the spirit core will actually look absolutely hideous if one were to see it in a photo. However, it was left behind by a Celestial grade beast. So, naturally, the spirit core attracted the three of their attention. Claire was even worried that Leah might gobble up all for herself.
Her suspicion wasn't unfounded as Leah herself has the look of greediness on her face. With the Reaper nullifying the effect, Azzy quickly returned to reality and took a look at the faces of the girls. He felt it was quite intimidating for a moment before the Camelot's princess resisted her urge and spoke, "As per our agreement, I claim fifty percent of it and both of you claim twenty-five percent each. Should I proceed with it?"
Azzy nodded calmly in silence.
Taking a deep breath, Leah sat on the ground and started making runes with her soul energy. The runes changed to different symbols before they were joined by the threat of purple energy, creating a streak of light, which cut the spirit core into two parts. In no time, two small-sized spheres are seen floating before the three of them.
Then, she once again cut the sphere into two halves, creating two identical spheres of fist size. After the seal disappeared while removing the marks on the spheres that were connected to her soul, Leah told them to take partial spirit cores.
Azzy placed his palm on one of the fist-sized spirit cores and closed his eyes. All of it was immediately absorbed by his body. He then sat in a lotus position and started refining the soul energy.
The time went by and his soul power steadily increased. By the time, he completely refined, the maximum soul power on the soul card changed from 289252 to 664674, pushing him to almost reach the advanced stage of Elite Realm.
On the other hand, Claire, who could only absorb 30% of energy from the spiritual core, raised her soul power by more than two hundred and twenty-five thousand and has nearly 400 thousand soul power.
Unlike Azzy who has a Divine Grade spirit making even a Celestial grade spirit core be refined into fifty percent of his energy, both of the girls managed to refine it completely, raising their soul power significantly despite their absorption rate being far lower than him.
The strange thing here is that despite absorbing 1.5 million worth of soul power from the Spirit core and even refining it completely, Leah was still at the peak stage of the Elite realm. Her soul power wasn't improved by even 1. Claire was greatly surprised by it.
Was she facing a wall and her progress came to halt? But, is that possible for Camelot princess, a twin Arcana user who owned a Celestial grade beast? Azzy doesn't think it is.
It led to him thinking about it before something clicked in his mind, "that's right. She knew the Decarune Seal. and has applied it before." In their first meeting itself, the Reaper mentioned to him. That's why she looked like a civilian back then.
When he remembered the fact, Azzy realized that she is hiding her true realm. Was she in Upper Elite Realm? He wondered for a moment before throwing away those thoughts deeming them to be useless considering how they won't be meeting each other again anyway.
"Say, how should we split the corpse?" Once everyone's refining is finished, Leah posed a sudden question, bringing both of them to reality.
