Chapter 351: Second Job Class Advancement I

Adrian turned into particles of light once more. He reappeared in the same location just a second after. It has already been his thirty first match, but he has yet to succeed. He did almost clutch victory this time when he used his twin dagger psyche armament.

"I am lacking in terms of mastery and skill if I compare myself to the Anubis but there one thing that I have. I need to be cunning and unpredictable. It looks like the Anubis is predicting my every move." Adrian thought to himself as he needed to beat the Anubis in a fight.

"Are you ready for the next fight?" The Anubis asked as it was once again ready for battle.

"Do you guys not have any other form of entertainment around here? I mean we have been fighting for hours but they have yet to leave." Adrian stated while looking at the other Anubises.

"We have shifts depending on the cycle. It is not like we always guard the door to the world of the dead always. Some of us have nothing to do but stand guard just in case someone from the death realms that are designed as prisons were to escape." The Anubis replied.

"I see. So basically, you guys are reserves until it is your duty guarding that door." Adrian stated as he pointed towards the huge looking door in the distance.

"You are correct. The last time that a prisoner from Tartarus escaped was about a few hundred years ago. It took half of us to subdue that prisoner but that rarely happens because the wardens of the prison death realms are good at their jobs." The Anubis stated.

Adrian found the information he gathered rathe shocking because he did not expect a being that could overpower one Anubis in Limbo. Then again, Limbo is neutral ground as it is where souls of the recently departed enter upon death to be judge on what death realm they are sent.

Adrian also found this tidbit quite mind blowing because that could mean that a possible enemy that is in one of the prison death realms could escape from Limbo. The giant imposing door in the distance is not only a way in but also a way out. If the door in Limbo was only a way in, then there would be no reason to put Anubises to guard it.

"Let us fight again but wait a bit for sec." Adrian stated and look toward Kanlaon to beckon the latter towards him.

"Perfect Assimilation" Adrian stated as he and Kanlaon combined.

Adrian now looked different from his usual look as he now had a dragon tail and grew an extra pair of cool looking horns that made him look like he is wearing a crown. The other feature that looks cool is his draconic claws that emits a fiery aura on his right hand while the left hand has a frosty aura.

The Anubis did not say anything towards Adrian like he is cheating or that is not permitted. Adrian look told the Cube of Paradox to release the axe psyche armament as it is the one weapon that he thinks would give him the edge. The Cube of Paradox complied and manifested the axe out of thin air in front of Adrian.

Adrian then drank a mana potion to recover the mana he lost as he will need the other psyche armaments in case of emergencies. The Anubis had a look of expectance because it never thought that the current Soul Summoner would be this cunning then again, every person needs to have a little bit of cunningness.

[All skills unrelated to the Soul Summoner Class will be locked.]

[You cannot revive once you are killed during this battle.]

[No penalties will be given upon dying in battle.]

The battle began and the penalties are in place, but Adrian's pre-applied skills did not disappear. Adrian smiled as he was sure that this time, he would be victorious to an extent. He was hoping to push the Anubis in a corner or better yet win.

"If I had thought of this sooner then I would have won." Adrian thought as he charged towards the Anubis with a giant axe in hand.

The Anubis met Adrian's charge and their weapons clashed. A powerful shockwave ensued but Adrian was only pushed back by one meter while the Anubis was pushed by three meters. The Anubis was clearly overpowered which greatly pleased Adrian. Sometimes brute strength can overpower technique which he was aiming for.

"Earth Splitter" Adrian stated as his axe psyche armament glowed red.

Adrian struck the floor with all his might, but it only cracked despite the huge force he used. The shockwave that ensued still hit the Anubis that made the Judge of the Dead flinch from the damage. Adrian followed up with attacks of his axe to build up his momentum. The Anubis became riddled with would and had to resort to using magic once more.

The Anubis once again tapped its spear on the ground which made numerous ghostly hands grabbed for his ankles. The Anubis did not stop with that magic as he swayed his hands and hundreds of locusts came out to swarm Adrian.

Adrian did his best to swat the locusts, but they were far too many and he backed away. Adrian had to use the second skill of the axe in order to blow away the swarm of locusts.
