Reborn Soul Master: The Rogue's Counterattack

Snap. The armored woman swung her sword rapidly. Judging from her expression, she was not joking.

Then, Matthias carefully lowered the shield he was carrying and held out his hand to Cardan.

"Cardan, make me a sword." During the battle with the Duchess, Matthias's sword broke, so he was left without a suitable weapon.

Since the opponent has drawn a sword, a weapon with a certain degree of lethality is needed.

"Senior, do you want to go up?"

"Looking at the situation, it seems that I am the only one who can go, right?" Mathias, a 6-star swordsman who is good at close combat, is undoubtedly the safest choice.

Cardin nodded and threw some sawdust into the air.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh! The sawdust scattered in the air began to gather quickly, and soon a white sword was completed.

“Please check it.” Matthias, who took the sword, nodded and checked the sword for a moment.

"The balance is better than I thought?" I thought it just looked like a sword. The necromancer is not a blacksmith. However, I was shocked when I got the sword.

I thought I could only make bones, but I didn't expect to be able to make such a decent weapon.

"Cardan, did you learn blacksmithing skills when you were a child?"

"Learned."

"Ah..." Hearing this answer, Matthias laughed dryly.

"This guy Cardan will never starve to death no matter where he goes." Even if he makes weapons out of bones and sells them, his business will probably be better than that of an ordinary blacksmith shop.

Of course, if the weapons are made entirely of bone, there may be some flaws.

"Senior, is this okay?" Blanche came over and asked when Mathias was checking the sword again.

"Since she said we can go together, I will provide support from the rear."

"No, if you go up, that person's first target won't be me, but you, right?" Hearing Matthias' gentle answer, Blanche nodded to show her understanding.

"You'd rather focus one-on-one than be distracted, right?"

"Well, I'll be back." Can he? The other party looked like a knight of the Knights led by Guardian Dimitar.

Even though she is not a knight belonging to the Knights Templar, she is a knight guarding the walls of Eloksam. Can Mathias deal with her alone?

"Let's get started." Mathias stopped in front of the woman and took a posture as if he was about to rush over.

"Just like in real combat. I'll do the same."

"Ah! I should have introduced myself first, sorry. I'm Mathias, a student at Hero Academy."

"I am Knight Radiya." The two greeted each other politely and pointed their weapons at each other again. The first to rush forward was Mathias.

Bang! Mathias quickly closed the distance and seemed to want to contain the enemy first, so he gently swung his sword.

Whoosh! When the tip of the sword was about to touch Radiya, Matthias tried to retract the sword.

but.

Crack! She quickly moved to Mathias's side and gently struck him in the side with the back of her sword.

Boom boom boom! Matthias fell to the ground, struggling.

“Senior!” Seeing that scene, Cardin and Blanche looked at Mathias in surprise.

"Huh?" The person struggling on the ground looked at Radiya with an expression of disbelief.

"I hit you with the flat of the sword. If I had used the blade, you would have been cut in two." Matthias couldn't capture her movements correctly.

How could she be so fast without any warning?

"...I lost." Soon, Matthias came to his senses, stood up from the ground, and immediately said to Radiya.

"Thank you for your hard work." Radiya greeted briefly and then looked at Cardin and Blanche.

Cardin felt an inexplicable uneasiness on Radiya's expressionless face. "So, who's next?"

This was a spectacular defeat. A student of the Hero Academy, a second-year student at that, known as the strongest of the first-years, actually admitted defeat without even hitting a single attack.

Mathias was also easily knocked out by Radiya, and there was no way Blanche or Cardin could handle her.

"So strong." Cardin, who had finally confronted Radiya, smiled bitterly as he lay on the floor of the training ground. No, he had just woken up and smiled bitterly.

Soon after the fight began, he was hit by a fist swung by Radiya and lost consciousness. It was only for a moment.

"I clearly summoned the Death Knight and was about to use curse magic immediately..." He didn't even remember how he was attacked.

"Cardan, are you awake?" Cardan looked at the ceiling blankly. Matthias came over and patted Cardan on the shoulder.

"Ah, yes." Cardin then slowly stood up and looked at Mathias with an incredible expression.

"How is this going?"

"What's going on? As soon as you summoned the Death Knight, he came over and hit you on the chin." He thought he would be attacked at least once, but he didn't expect to be attacked immediately after summoning the Death Knight.

Although I think she is ruthless, I don't want to give in to failure.

"She probably thought that the battle had begun the moment she summoned the undead." Cardan smiled bitterly and stood up. Then, Radiya, who was standing at the door, looked at the three people and said.

"You failed to defeat me, so you can't see Mr. Dimitar." Hearing her firm voice, the three looked at each other in panic.

"We were commissioned to pass on this shield," Matthias said as he stepped forward to her.

"But I couldn't defeat you."

"We risked our lives to come here through the forest where the dark elves live." Then, Radiya held out her hand to Mathias.

"Of course, I'll take the shield. However, I can't give you a receipt."
