After having a long talk with Severus and figuring out what she needed to do next, they formulated a plan, one that would put her on name on the leaderboard after her very first fight. She was the only other grim reaper with a hell hound as a soul pet, she had a lot to prove. 

"Choose your weapons, every reaper has weapons that they are most comfortable with." 

"A whip." she said. In the zombie world she had these sharp whips which had spikes that could rip the head of a zombie off with one strong strike. She had trained with those whips, learning how to balance them, bleeding until her fingers got wounds and calluses but she never stopped until they became a part of her. That's why it was so simple for her to wield the soul binding rope. 

She and Severus were shopping for training materials on the underworld forum. 

"Can you use two whips?" he asked her. 

"Perfectly." she answered. 

"There is a pair of whips that were forged from the tongue of fire death serpent." He scrolled through the forum as he spoke. "The forger does not want soul crystals which is why they have been on the market for hundreds of years now."

"What does the forger want?" she had no idea what a fire death serpent was but she could always find out. 

"A favor, but in this world a favor is something too big to owe anyone because they could ask for a bit of soul strength and nobody wants to trade their strength. They could ask for your invitation to a small world but it's an opportunity that comes once in a century to every reaper except for special cases. All in all, nobody has any favors to give." 

She looked at him with questions in her eyes. "Are you wondering why I am willing to allow us owe him that favor?" 

"Yes, maybe it's not worth it." she answered. Of the two things he mentioned she too did not want to give up any of them. 

"She is my partner." Severus answered. "If I have to kill you to protect her let's not pretend that I will not do it." 

Scarlet smiled slowly loving how protective Severus was of her. 

"Sheesh, you are such a bastard." Halder told Severus. "Anyway since she can find one strong soul once odds are she might find another one someday. I want her to give the next strong soul she comes across to me. "

"Halder, are you crazy? Do you think strong souls are everywhere like soul crystals ready for picking?" 

"I don't care if it takes her the next one thousand years it's the price I want for the whips. And before you decide that it's not worth it keep in mind that these whips can be used to tame flames, they can be used in an ordinary fight against other human beings and so many other ways that the wielder will have to find out. I am not boasting but of all the weapons I have created they are my second greatest work. That's why I am demanding too much, but you already know that Severus otherwise you would not be here." Halder was both arrogant and proud of his creations. "So what's it going to be old friend?" 

"Throw in some armor and you have a deal. A strong soul is worth more than one pair of whips." Severus answered. 

Scarlet thought about stopping Severus but he looked determined and she thought it would be best for her not to interfere because he knew more about this world than she did. But she also wondered what would happen if she never found another strong soul again. Would he take the whips back or ask for something else?

"Deal." Halder said. 

"We also need a ready training ground one that can work in the physical world." Severus added. 

"You are on a shopping spree old friend, are you aiming to get her on the leaderboard?" 

lightsΝοvεl ƈοm "I am aiming to get her in the top ten in one year." Severus answered. 

"You aim high Severus, then again you have always been the greediest of them all and not just food." 

"Less yapping and more packing." Severus said looking very displeased. 

"What more do you need? I am happy to receive your crystals in fact let me show you everything that I have crafted lately and you can choose what catches your fancy. I am looking forward to seeing the name Scarlet on the leaderboard, in fact I will be betting on her since I know that you will be training her."
