Reborn Soul Master: The Rogue's Counterattack

"I try not to do that, but being wary of people with tattoos makes it easier to see."

After Cardin's calm reply, Isaac pondered for a moment, then nodded.

"Like Cardin said, the fact that the tattoo is evidence is better known only to the three of us in this classroom."

"I'm sorry I couldn't be of more help."

"No, I have learned important information. I have also learned how to distinguish those who need to be vigilant."

Isaac left the classroom after he finished speaking. He had to go to the royal city. Only Cardan and Esther were left in the classroom.

"Junior." At this time, Esther called Cardin carefully.

"Does the mercenary Flam also have that animal tattoo?"

"Yes, on his wrist."

"I see..." Esther didn't get angry immediately as Cardin had imagined, but simply nodded in understanding.

"It must be depressing not being able to tell anyone. It must be hard." Instead, Esther comforted Cardin.

"Oh, no." Cardin nodded, trying to hide his panic.

"Now that I know the entity of the tattoo, I can be more careful. Thank you for telling me, Cardin."

Esther stood up from her seat, approached Cardin, and held out her hand. "Don't fight alone now, talk to your senior once in a while."

Cardin looked at Esther blankly, and Esther smiled and said, "Are you afraid of my tattoos, so you don't want to shake my hand? I can't confirm it in person."

"No, that's not it. I'm sorry I didn't tell you beforehand." Esther didn't need to confirm the tattoo. If Esther was a demon or someone who was becoming a demon, Luna would have told her.

"I'm sorry, too. I relaxed too much in Trafalgar and became too lazy. That's what I'm worried about." Esther smiled and held out her hand again. Because her arm hurts, she should hold it quickly, that's how she behaves.

Cardin immediately held her hand. "You've worked hard for a long time, too."

The fact that the mercenaries imprisoned in Trafalgar City Prison had turned into demons spread quickly. The kingdom was in chaos.

People have to face the fact that they don't know when and where the demons will appear, and feel fear.

Fortunately, the Guardians quickly gathered and began a meeting, and their response allowed people to feel a little more at ease.

The Guardians concluded their meeting by deciding to look for the humans who were becoming demonized.

They decide to have priests pray and issue documents proving they are not demons so people can go about their daily lives, and this decision leads to big events.

"A magician who is transforming into a demon appeared in the magic tower this time?"

"How many people are there in the Knights?"

"Why are there so many people who are becoming demons?"

The magic tower, guild, knight order and other organizations summoned priests on their own to check one by one whether there were people who were becoming demons. The results showed that one demon-turned person was found in ten places.

The fact that the demons that had been transformed into monsters after receiving prayers were dealt with by various organizations on their own quickly spread throughout the kingdom.

Therefore, the humans who were being transformed into demons began to hide their whereabouts one by one. The fact that the humans who were being transformed into demons were discovered once again triggered an emergency.

"You never know when a demonized person will appear from where. You must always be ready to fight."

Because we are worried that the demons who lost their seats will fight back, we must be more vigilant than usual.

The same goes for the Hero Academy that was established to protect the kingdom from the demons.

The training intensity was higher than usual, and the training volume was increased several times. Of course, no one complained. The students also realized that they might really have to fight the demons now, so they became nervous and participated in the training with all their strength.

In order to prepare for possible threats, the college stopped accepting external commissions and focused only on training students. In this way, a month passed.

"Next week is a party for the graduating class." In the Hero Academy meeting room, professors and lecturers gathered together, and only Lecturer Belid stood up.

"I'd like to hear everyone's opinions on whether we should go ahead with the party as planned." Lecturer Bellid's words made the professors and lecturers laugh.

"Will the person who is being demonized appear wearing a mask?" Then, some lecturers laughed.

“Lecturer Belid, everyone in our college, from students to lecturers and professors, has received the prayers of the priest.”

"Don't you know that there are no people in the Hero Academy who are transforming into demons?" Ever since the incident of the Trafalgar City mercenaries turning into demons, the priest has also come to the Hero Academy.

Fortunately, there are no demonized people in Hero Academy. Valentina, the demonized instructor, turned into a vampire when Luna removed the magic stone, and fortunately, she did not respond to the priest's prayers.

"Anyway, we have banned outsiders from entering. This is our own party. Shouldn't it be held?"

"The graduating students are also looking forward to it. Besides, which demon would be crazy enough to find this place?"

The lecturers, and of course the professors, all said that the party should continue. "Although you have to be careful, it won't be a problem. Just bring the priest."

Then, Professor Isaac expressed his opinion. He wanted to say that it would be better not to have a party, but like other lecturers said, as the last activity of the graduating class, he felt uncomfortable letting it go.

The lecturers and professors decided to go ahead with the masquerade, and Lecturer Bellid accepted their opinion.

"I see. Then, we will continue with the masquerade next week as planned."
