Reborn Soul Master: The Rogue's Counterattack

"Are you talking about the successor?" Hearing this sudden remark, Matthias' eyes widened in surprise.

"If you can unleash the power of this shield, that will be enough." So far, no one except Gadian Dimitar has been able to unleash the hidden power of the shield.

And Matthias was the one who was designated as the next guardian. To be Dimitar's successor, he was not only qualified, but also had outstanding talents.

"How do you know it was me who exerted the power of the shield?"

"There is someone else's magic power left on the shield. So, of course it must be one of the three of you who transported this shield." Hearing this, Mathias tilted his head and asked again.

"Didn't you lend this shield to Duchess Florian? Then, perhaps one of the Duchess's knights used it?"

Dimitar chuckled and shook his head at that question.

"No one among Florian's knights could activate this relic." The Holy Guardian's shield basically has "anti-magic capabilities."

A shield filled with divine power that can dispel evil simply by holding it.

"I lent it to them because they were going to conquer a dungeon with a lich. Just by having this shield, they can suppress the power of the lich." In other words, none of Florian's knights could bring out the original power of the shield.

It turns out that the person who wielded the power of this shield was one of the three students who transported the ledger.

"A magician can't hold such a heavy shield. A necromancer can't use the relic either." It was Mathias who brought out the power of the relic. That's what Gadian Dimitar concluded.

"I heard that your master is the king of mercenaries, 'Jed'. Is that right?"

"Yes. That's right. I was a mercenary and grew up under a master." After Matthias answered uprightly, Dimitar nodded and looked him over.

"Okay. What are you going to do after you graduate? Go back to Jade?"

"If there is no suitable proposal, I plan to continue to follow the master."

"It's a pity for someone with such talent to just become the king of mercenaries." Dimitar looked at Matthias with an interesting look and continued.

"Join my order of knights. If you want to become my successor, you must learn under me." Matthias was stunned by the next proposal.

Seeing that, Dimitar burst out laughing and spoke again.

"Well, it seems you don't need to stay in the academy for too long. I'll let you graduate this time."

"Well, is that possible?"

"It's an academy managed by the Guardians. How difficult is it to let a student graduate early?" Not difficult at all.

As long as there is a document signed by the Guardian himself, Matthias's proposal to graduate early will be approved.

"Okay, let's stop here and go see those damn barbarians?" Dimitar moved and walked towards the end of the city wall.

"Today it also came like a dark cloud." Countless barbarians gathered under the city walls.

"See the guy with the weird stick?"

"Ah, yes. I can see it." Mathias nodded, still unable to shake off his nervousness.

"Those guys occasionally spit out bright red magic power. This is also evidence of the use of demon power." After hearing Dimitar's words, Matthias turned his attention to the wizards scattered among the barbarians.

"If it's the scarlet magic..." Duchess Florian, who was wearing a wild boar mask, also used the scarlet magic.

"Is this evidence of the demons?" As Dimitar said, the barbarian wizards are using bright red magic.

"It's a bit difficult without the holy object when those guys broke in." Dimitar held the shield and looked back at Matthias.

"Let this shield unleash its true power. This is a rare sight, take a good look at it." Dimitar said, looking outside the city wall again.

Snap! Soon, he raised the shield high. In an instant, Dimitar's magic power was quickly absorbed by the shield, and the shield was filled with golden aura. It felt warm and dazzling.

Whoosh! In an instant, golden waves emanated from the shield and spread across the entire battlefield.

"Ahhh!" Soon, screams were heard from under the city wall. The screamers were from wizards. Exposed to the sacred golden light, the wizards seemed to be in pain and made strange noises while sitting on the ground.

"Kill them all." As the light gradually disappeared, Dimitar slowly lowered his shield and gave orders to the nearby commander.

Then, magic, arrows, and thrown spears were shot from all over the city walls, directed at the barbarians.
