My Soul card is a Reaper

Chapter 493 Qridus Garcia's Three Proposals



With a frown on his face, He replied, "I must be the one who should say that I was deeply disappointed, Lord Neremyn. Saint Ravens clearly said that he would love to see clan heads in this meeting.

Except for the elven clan leader, everyone else made up their time for the meeting. Ever the leader of Valhalla couldn\'t come but still, the Asgardian leader at least promised to attend through projection. What about the elves? Do the elves no longer intend to respect the wishes of Saint Ravens?"

The moment he used Saint Ravens, the whole hall went into silence. They clearly understood the hidden meaning behind his words.

According to their information network, the elven ancestor who is preparing to make a breakthrough to rank 10 for the past century had finally found a way to do it.

It is a long-lost forbidden technique, Soul fusion. According to the method, if two supreme beings (peak-rank-9) fuse their souls and their respective Arcana, either one of them absorbs everything that the other owns or a new being will be created with both of their memories, Arcana, and has the combined soul energy of both of them.

This way, one can just bypass the usual restrictions to become a demigod. However, using this method, one will only reach rank 10 but not an actual demigod. It\'s more like becoming a pseudo-demigod.

Why used the word pseudo? It is because they only possess the strength of a demigod, not all of the qualities and skills. Even their lifespan will only be as much as the two of them left combined. Adding on top of that, their further path to the god realm will be also cut off, not that it would matter.

Because the supposed elf won\'t officially enter the demigod realm, he/she doesn\'t even need to leave for the immortal world (Celestial Empire/heavens). They can just stay on Gaia and continue to live their life.

With elves having a long lifespan than humans, the pseudo-demigod elf would be able to dominate the other hidden clans with ease.

And this situation isn\'t something okay with the others. It was one of the reasons why Aelius Crescent was targeted six millennia ago.

But then again, they cannot just unnecessarily offend the elves in person because of their self-interests.

Hence, all the other hidden clan leaders decided to be spectators as Qridus tried to push Neremyn into a corner in response to the latter\'s complaint about not receiving proper respect.

Neremyn Searvale\'s face turned dark. He felt like Qridus is purposely trying to make things harder for him by using the round table\'s judge.

Just as he was about to give a reply without toning down his arrogance, two people suddenly appeared nearby the steps below the throne. "It looked like everyone is here that needed to be."

As everyone turned their heads toward the source of the voice and immediately rose to their feet, Azzy took a step back in surprise, "Leah?"

Leah was also slightly startled when she saw Azzy but since she already knew that he was going to be there, she quickly managed to calm down her emotions and shift her gaze away to the remaining lords of the hidden clans.

"Welcome, Saint Ravens. We are just talking about you." Qridus casually greeted him while also indicating to Neremyn the close relationship between the Death Clan and the judge. Except for the Death clan\'s monarch, no one had the guts to address him as such. Everyone just politely addresses the judge as "Your Grace".

Little did he expect the judge would give him a surprise by replying to him about the elves, "I know. And don\'t need to worry, Qridus. I was the one who suggested the method to the elven empress."

"Eh? You suggested it?" Qridus was taken aback and so were the others including even Neremyn.

The guardian god then said, "We will talk about it in the meeting. Now, everyone sits down. I\'m on a tight schedule. Let\'s wrap up this meeting as quickly as possible. You there, the elf kid, come and sit."

Neremyn\'s face darkened once again upon being called a kid by someone who just looks like he is in his 20s but he knew that Saint Ravens is someone who existed for a long time and is currently powerful enough to wipe out his entire race.

Hence, he put away his feelings and calmly walked to his seat.

As everyone sat in their seats, the guardian god then walked to the throne of Garcia Palace and sat down. Leah followed him and stood beside the throne.

In the meantime, Qridus proceeded to activate the projection technique that lets the leader of the Asgardian race make his appearance.

"Before starting the meeting, let me introduce my student." The guardian god pointed his finger at Leah. Everyone\'s eyes shifted to her.

He continued, "Meet Leah Pendragon, the princess of Camelot. In future hidden clan meetings, she will represent me if I will be too busy. Just note in your mind that her words during this meeting are the same as mine."

As the pairs of eyes stare at Leah, the latter felt quite nervous for a while. It\'s a huge responsibility given by her teacher.

At the same time, she could also guess what is going to happen in the near future.

The Camelot will become the center of the stage once again and she wants to make use of this opportunity to fulfill her goal of reviving the ancient empire of Arcana.

Just like she thought, the others had similar thoughts of reestablishing their relations with Camelot once again. Qridus, however, felt dejected for Azzy losing the opportunity to become a student of Saint Ravens. And the latter\'s earlier words about suggesting the solution to the elven empress seemed suspicious too. Is the death clan losing the favor of Saint Ravens? He wondered.

Meanwhile, the guardian god continued, "Using my authority as the judge of the round table, I hereby commence the 320th hidden clan meeting."

The introductions followed after.

"Moon clan\'s representative – Elyssa Moon"

"Representative of Asgard – Borr"

"Kuru clan\'s representative – Yudhishthira

"Representative of Angels – Ingrid Lefeuvre

"Minamoto clan\'s representative – Tachibana Shuzo"

"Representative of Elves – Neremyn Searvale"

"Death clan\'s representative – Qridus Garcia"

Once the introductions are over, Saint Ravens looked at Qridus, "the host may now raise the issues if there are any. After that, I will get to the matter."

"Thank you." Qridus rose to his feet and spoke, "I have but three issues to speak about. First, everyone must have already heard about the summoning of the demons, correct?"

As the other clan lords nodded, Qridus continued, "The World Arcana Masters Organization had managed to deal with it because the gate of Tartarus was summoned in their territory. What if it is summoned somewhere in a remote location?

I observed the battle from the shadows. The power of the demon general\'s avatar is anything we imagine. If there are a half dozen of such avatars, I don\'t have confidence that our humanity will be able to survive.

We cannot take any chances anymore. I propose the construction of a world barrier that will completely block any descends from other worlds. But, to do that, we need a powerful demigod-level barrier. It needs all the combined efforts of our clans."

"A world barrier?" The clan leaders fell into deep thinking.
