My Soul card is a Reaper-Chapter 376 Azzy Goes To The Pelican Forest
Azzy got up on his feet and bowed, "I apologize, master. I made a big mess."
Barton returned to his senses and he waved his hands with an awkward smile, "it's alright. I will make a call to Lord Aegis and see if he can do something about the repairs."
As the master of Azzy, he was responsible for the mess caused by his disciple. With a simple apology, he can convince Aegis to send their skilled technician to repair the chamber but the only issue is the repair cost. Considering he has billions of credits in his bank account which he earned by selling the academy to Eternal Institutions, he wasn't worried about a high cost.
But, still, paying tens of millions of credits will cause pain in the heart.
"What about the sealing technique?" Azzy asked Barton who was wondering about the repair cost as well as the possibility of improving it or creating another chamber.
Barton told him that he can only practice the technique in a normal environment. The process is the same except it will be slow with original gravity.
"I understand." Azzy nodded and then, contacted the Reaper to see if he can use those gravitons sealed in his body could be used to make the Gravity seal. As the Reaper gave him affirmation, Azzy was satisfied.
However, Barton wasn't feeling good.
Feeling bad for his disciple, the Sealing taught him an intermediate seal. It is not a high grade but very useful. The seal wasn't his creation but is a popular one among the sealing experts, the storage seal.
This sealing technique follows the same principle as the SP recovery card except that it can only be applied to oneself.
Depending on the mastery, one can store soul energy and use it for later purposes like when they aren't in any position to use SP recovery cards in the middle of battle.
Barton knew that Azzy is stronger than his peers. So, rather than giving some offensive or defensive sealing technique, he thought this skill is most useful.
Azzy then went to one of the combat rooms and started his training.
Five days passed away in a blink of an eye.
Over the past few days, Azzy had gained significant mastery over the storage seal, able to store 15 million SP (soul power). It is equivalent to almost two times his maximum soul power.
At the same time, he also practiced the Buddhist technique of Invincible Divine Body.
He wasn't even halfway through to the next tier but was sure that his bones and skin are tougher than before.
After having dinner, Azzy packed up his luggage and started his journey to the Pelican Rainforest, which is shared by the nations of Southern Qudour and Llyne. It is about 1228 kilometers from Aclein.
He wasn't alone. The Super Android Aria was also traveling with him except that she was in her hidden bodyguard mode. He told her to travel alongside him but she refused to adhere to his request.
Azzy didn't care anymore and boarded the train that is going from Ecrin city to East Ocean City.
After a journey of 14 hours, he stepped down from the train at the station of Deloris town of Llyne nation. The town is said to be one of the closest points to the forest.
From there, he took a taxi to the edge of the forest. He was dropped at a tourist point where cabs to return and forest guides to enter are available.
He didn't hire anyone as he wasn't for a tour and just charged into the forest at his fastest speed, surprising the people nearby. Aria followed him while maintaining the distance.
The rainforest is currently the densest forest on the planet of Gaia, spanning over 1 million sq. km, and is home to thousands of varieties of animals.
The main specialty of this place is that it rains atleast 20 hours per day in all the seasons. So, Azzy had to depend on 'Eyes of God' soul skill to go deep into the forest under heavy rainfall.
Following the Reaper's instructions, after running nonstop for more than an hour, Azzy finally stopped in the middle of nowhere, which was just surrounded by tall trees. Despite being a day, it was quite dark in this place, not that Azzy would care about it.
Azzy then pulled out a table from his storage card before placing it on the muddy ground. After that, he sat on top of it in a meditative pose and closed his eyes, proceeding with absorbing the natural energy.
"Wow," He couldn't help but open his eyes and exclaimed in surprise as he felt the gush of natural energy enter his body. More than 10% of his natural energy storage capacity was filled in just a second.
He closed his eyes again and concentrated on absorption. Contrary to the Reaper's claim of 7-8 seconds, it took little more than 10 seconds to fill up to the brim. Even Azzy knows the real reason for his capacity increased because of the practice.
Anyway, once he absorbed as much natural energy as he can, Azzy proceeded to refine it and spread it all over his body, strengthening his bones, muscles, organs, and everything. f𝘳𝚎𝐞we𝐛𝑛𝐨𝘃e𝘭.co𝘮
Three more days passed away like this. He had stored food to eat and a tent to sleep-in in his storage card. So, he was fine living inside the forest. The tent wasn't a normal one. It was the same one Sapphire Magnolis gave him back as compensation for letting go of the fatty son of King Ragron, unharmed.
There was an entire mansion filled with furniture inside the tent. So, he didn't suffer even for a moment whether it is physically or mentally. But, to place it, he needed a place. Since he couldn't find a flat ground with enough space, he destroyed several trees and made a place for the tent.
Meanwhile, at the nation of Athledon, Affea was currently participating in a fishing activity as a part of the Lunar Festival. In the lake of Xerad, two boats were being rowed manually while a significant number of people gathered at the shores.
This fishing contest was created because of the challenge made by a princess of the country's royal family, which was founded by a direct descendant of the Moon Clan more than fifty thousand years ago.
