My Soul card is a Reaper

"Last night, two-tenth grade girls from Soul weapon division entered the Girls dormitory of the Dropout division in a state of being fully drunk and allegedly bickered with three ninth-grade girls who are having a late-night snack at the Cafeteria. The ruckus made by them woke everyone up.

And when a handful of tenth graders tried to stop them, these two girls from a higher division beat them up. Thankfully, the Warden came in time or else, the victims wouldn't have faced light injuries. President Zona promised that the Student council will help in the investigation." Matilda gave him the information as much as she knows.

Upon hearing everything, Azzy found something amiss. He first asked about the security guards. How did they let those two inside in the first place?

"As you know, Dropout dormitory has many numbers. So, they probably didn't think much of it or they might be asleep. I'll give a full investigation report by afternoon." Matilda answered him in a serious tone.

Azzy looked at the images of girls once again.

Then, suddenly, something clicked in his mind, he immediately asked her to collect information about the two accused and also camera footage from the dormitory.

Usually, all the dormitories have cameras fixed in the corridors, cafeteria, and entrance hall. So, he wanted to check them first.

As there were only two of them, Matilda left for the dormitory to collect the footage by herself while Azzy went to the office and took a seat.

*Sigh*"Just like master had warned, ever since the announcement, troublesome incidents are occurring one after another especially regarding the dropouts." For the past two weeks, Azzy was coming to the academy early by an hour and leaving late by two hours just to sort out the documents and punishments, which were left pending because of the Champions League.

With the help of Vajra, Matilda, and sometimes, Zona's clones, he managed to sort everything out. He even showed mercy by handing out moderate or light punishments to the offenders while ignoring Matilda's nagging about how they need stricter punishment.

Thankfully, his fame helped in making almost everyone abide by the punishments. The ones who ignored the Disciplinary committee's punishment were either already dropped out or requested the student council for an extension of the time limit.

Because of such results, Azzy should have been happy. However, he wasn't. It was all because the new incidents kept popping up each day, increasing his workload.

Looking at how serious is this latest incident, Azzy doubted his judgment whether he was too lenient on them.

After all, Azzy is the type to give even a person who wanted to kill him, a second chance to live, so it's not surprising that he was merciful in handing out punishments.

Nearly forty minutes later, as Azzy was busy with absorbing the solar energy and refining it, Matilda arrived with a video cassette tape and the ten-years past records of the accused from the moment they enrolled into the academy to the previous day.

Azzy stopped training and gesture her to sit.

She took a seat beside him and explained their records of bullying.

After listening to everything, Azzy let out a comment, "so, they were actually victims of bullying until seventh grade, huh!"

"President Azrael, you cannot pardon these two." Matilda had a frown on her face in displeasure. She didn't like how this new president, unlike her impressions of him, was just handing out light punishments when she worked hard to the bone to get the investigation results for every case.

"First, they are underage and yet consumed alcohol. Second, they harmed even the staff members. Third, several witnesses are saying that they have the intention to kill. Even a solitary cell can't change these two. Both of them will be graduating in one month. You can't let them go away with this. They need to become an example for others." Matilda tried to convince Azzy as usual, hoping he would at least enforce stricter punishment, this time.

*Trrring*

It was at that moment, the bell rang at all the school buildings simultaneously.

Placing the materials into his storage card, Azzy stood up from his seat, "Let's talk after you bring the complete investigation results. See you in the evening."

***

<strong>Evening 5:30 p.m., Disciplinary Hall's monitor room;</strong>

While everyone returned to either dorms or their respective residences, Azzy was all alone in the office, watching the footage, over and over again. He was also trying to analyze each of their moments.

"Hmm, the two girls seemed to be sober when they dodged the kick." He rewinds it and plays again.

In the video, the Dorm's leader, a tenth grader of the dropout division was trying to plant a kick at one of the accused.

The accused Nella, a high-four-star Arcana Master perfectly dodged it. But then, after that, she didn't wobble like a person who was drunk but stood firmly on the floor for a couple of seconds before she yelled.

Another suspicious thing is that they assaulted a ninth-grader only after the appearance of the dorm leader. And a moment before that, Azzy saw both of them slightly nodded to each other.

"This was a planned one." Realization dawned upon him. He didn't it was a coincidence that only the Dorm leader was heavily injured out of the seven victims.

He read the investigation reports once again to cross-check the records of the two accused and the Dorm's leader.

*Slam*

"Rosalee was actually a bully when she was at Soul weapon division. And these two girls Nella and Rebecca were her victims. Now that they are graduating, they must have looked for revenge in the pretense of being drunk. However…"

Azzy looked at the records with a frown as he discovered one more important thing. "After being demoted to Dropouts division, three years ago, Rosalee never had a record of two-star or higher indiscipline level. That means either she was really changed or Leo might have overlooked it. She was a commoner and only in the three-star realm. There's not much potential considering her Arcana spirit is only blue grade.

So, the latter option can be taken away. She likely turned to a new leaf. Well, I can't judge someone without a record anyway. So, let's focus on these two. One, it is a planned assault. Two, a soul skill is being used inside the building. It is definitely a five-star case.

And I should consider other possibilities. What if the warden isn't on time? What if other victims face serious injuries and their future will be impacted? What if there was a murder?"

*Sigh* "Oh, boy… what a headache... Sometimes, it really feels like I made a mistake in accepting this position." Azzy couldn't help but let out another deep sigh. "Okay, fine. Let's do this my way."

He took out a 1 Kroc currency coin. It has an image of a stingray on the back and number 1 on the front with words, "Republic of Northern Qudour."

"I'm leaving their fate of two girls on you." Azzy tossed it upwards.

Azzy tends to do it from time to time whenever he was struggling to choose an appropriate punishment between his two choices.

As it landed on the floor, he found it was tails.

"Okay fine…"

Azzy pressed a five-star stamp on the document. After signing it, he wrote the punishment he decided on and closed the file.
