Reborn Soul Master: The Rogue's Counterattack

"We were attacked by demons." The revolutionary member who fell to the ground said while holding back the pain.

"Demon, demon clan?"

"Tell me in detail! What exactly happened?" People around asked questions anxiously.

"Demons appeared during the reconnaissance... Demons wearing masks." The five-member reconnaissance team, including Belid, patrolled around the city as usual, preparing to deal with the threat of demons.

While conducting reconnaissance, they encounter men wearing spider masks in a nearby forest, and a fight suddenly begins.

“If it weren’t for us, Belid wouldn’t have been injured…” Casualties appeared instantly, and all members of the revolutionary group except Belid were seriously injured.

Belid tried to fight back, but because one of his members was taken hostage, Belid had no choice but to surrender.

"I, I am alive because Mr. Belid used teleportation magic to send me to this place." Belid and two members of the revolutionary group who were taken hostage.

"I didn't escape alone... I would rather die, and Belid..." Finally, the man said with tears in his eyes.

"Where is that place?" At this time, Cardin, who had stopped on the stairs, came over and asked.

"who are you?"

"I am a student of Professor Belid. Where is the place where the battle with the demons takes place?" Although his eyes looked heavy due to fatigue, his gaze was firm.

“Go out from the north gate and turn left, you will see the forest…” The man tried hard to hold back his tears as he told the place where he encountered the demons.

"I'll go take a look first. Please send someone else who can fight." Cardin nodded and immediately walked towards the exit.

"Hey, wait! The masked demons are dangerous!"

"Even if you are from the Hero Academy, it is still dangerous! You will be in danger!" Then the people in the hotel chased over to stop Cardin.

According to the intelligence of the Revolutionary Group, the demons wearing masks are at least the highest level demons. Even magicians of Belid's level have difficulty dealing with demons, and Belid's students cannot possibly win.

"It will be dangerous if it's too late." But Cardan ignored their warnings and ran directly towards the north gate.

"He's called the Undying Fire, so I thought he was a magician who specialized in fire magic, but he's not." The demon wearing a spider mask muttered.

"A magician who can use teleportation magic to escape even in an unfavorable battle and hold on to the end. That's why he is a flame that never goes out." Soon, the demon who had been talking to himself sorted out his thoughts, looked at Belid in front of him and smiled.

Belid didn't look very well. Her clothes were torn everywhere, and blood was flowing out of the seams. She was breathing hard, and even standing seemed very difficult, but her expression did not show defeat.

"Damn demons." Belid said through gritted teeth, and the demon wearing a spider mask shrugged in response.

"What should we do? That amazing teleportation magic can't be used properly in front of hostages."

"Then release the hostages."

"Why? If we release the hostages, what if we use teleportation magic to send them to another place like we did just now? No. No." The demon said as if he was mocking Belid, looking at a certain place.

Two people were tied tightly to a tree and hung upside down by spider silk. They were members of the revolutionary group who were scouting around the city with Belid.

"I have a suggestion," the demon continued as he walked towards the hostage.

"Follow me, I will implant the magic stone into your body and make you my subordinate. Then I will release these people."

"Let me become a demon?"

"You will be given powers that you have not experienced until now. People like you may be given the right to wear masks."

"Bullshit."

"The higher-ups told me to kill you, but it would be a shame to kill you like this. So come to me and live forever." Belid sneered.

"These guys are targeting me." Having fought countless battles with the demons, he became famous. Therefore, the demons would definitely regard Belid as a thorn in their side.

"I knew they would find me one day, but I didn't expect the highest level demon to show up." Although he had been on guard against the appearance of demons, he didn't expect a situation like this to happen.

"If it's just one person, he can escape no matter what..." Even if the highest-level demon appeared, Belid was confident that he could survive.

But you can't run away alone when your colleagues are being held hostage.

"I didn't expect to be pushed to the edge of a cliff." Belid smiled bitterly and glared at the demon wearing a spider mask.

"What if he refuses?" "Then take him away by force." As soon as the demon finished speaking, a magic circle appeared around Belid.

Whoosh! Spider silk as thick as a human arm shot out from the magic circle.

Ahhhh! The moment the spider silk shot out at an extremely fast speed was about to hit Belid.

Brush. Her body blurred like fog.

Boom! Clank! Clank! Clank! The spider silk that had penetrated her body was firmly embedded in the hard ground.

Whoosh! Belid reappeared from a distance and quickly prepared his magic.

As Belid stretched out her hand, flaming swords formed around her and shot out quickly.

"What an enviable talent." Although it was a threatening attack, the demon just looked at the approaching flaming sword leisurely.

"Do you really want to attack me?" The demon who was looking at the flaming sword shrugged and looked at the hostage.

Swish! A sharp sword made of spider silk appeared in front of the hostages, threatening their necks.

"Damn it!" Unable to stop the flying flaming sword, Belid quickly stretched out his hand and used magic.

Woohoo! A portal appeared in front of the flying flaming sword, absorbing everything.

Bang! Bang! An explosion sounded not far away.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! "You created a portal in such a short time and completely changed the trajectory. You have good application ability?" The demon looked at the place where the explosion came from, and then looked at Belid and applauded.

"Coward." Belid glared at the demon and gritted his teeth.

"There's nothing we can do..." With the hostages threatened, Belid could do nothing.

"Are you taking hostages because you don't have the ability?"

"If there were no hostages, would you still want to escape? Wouldn't I know that?" Provocation was useless. If he just defended and dodged, this battle would definitely end in failure. Most importantly, Belid was very tired.

"Is there nothing I can do but follow them?" Even if he continued to defend and dodge in this state, he would soon succumb to the demons.

Belid's face was gradually covered with despair. The demon looked at her and seemed very happy, with his shoulders trembling.

"Then, be a good boy..." The demon raised a hand and pointed at Belid, and a magic circle appeared under her feet.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh! Dozens of spider silk threads suddenly sprang out, trying to entangle her. No, trying to entangle her.

Snap! A wall made of bones appeared around Belid, blocking all the spider silk that tried to entangle her.

"What is this?" Belid, who was trapped in the bone wall, was confused for a moment and looked around.

"A wall made of bones?" There was no necromancer in the revolutionary group. While Belied was confused, a familiar voice came from the other side of the bone wall.

"Are you okay?" Hearing that voice, Belid suddenly came back to his senses, kicked through the bone wall and walked out. A familiar yet unfamiliar figure appeared.

"Ka, Cardan?" She called the name carefully, and the person with his back to her slowly turned his head and looked at Belid.

"Greetings will be put aside for now." It was Cardin. Although it couldn't be said that he was exactly the same as three years ago, it was definitely Cardin.

"Hey, wait, Cardan! This is not an opponent that one person can deal with!" The joy was only temporary. Belid remembered that the opponent in front of him was a demon of the highest level, and hurriedly stopped Cardan.

Even though she was born in one of the five great knight orders of the kingdom and was an instructor at the Hero Academy, she still felt terrified by their existence. It was the demons that made her want to consider retreating first.

Even if Cardan had grown in three years, he would not be able to fight against the highest level demons.

At least that's what Belid judged.

"And the hostages have also been captured..." Bellid shouted, pointing at where the hostages were captured.

Boom! Boom! Two huge cocoons were carefully placed behind Belid. The cocoons were actually two members of the revolutionary group who were held hostage.

"What is this?" Belid looked at the person who put down the cocoon in confusion. A little girl with dark orange hair clapped her hands triumphantly.

"Cardan, it's okay now." The little girl said to Cardin, as if to say that she could play freely.

"Thank you, Luna, well done." Cardin smiled briefly over his shoulder before attacking immediately.

Whoosh! Belid was speechless. Could he bring back a hostage captured by the highest level demon so easily? Why did he fight so hard for the hostage?

"Who is this kid?" Belid looked at Luna in surprise, and Luna shrugged and said.

"What? Cardin asked me to bring it to you, so you can take care of it?"

"Oh? Ah, yes."

At this time, Belid came to his senses and ignited the hard spider silk cocoon.

Whoosh! Soon, the cocoon that enveloped the revolutionary group members completely disappeared.

"Is everyone okay? I'll take you to the base and bring reinforcements!" After confirming the status of the two members, Belid immediately placed his hands on their shoulders and activated his magic power.

Whoosh! The two disappeared in an instant. After confirming that the two hostages were safe and gone, Belid immediately shifted his gaze and looked towards where Cardan was.

"That's..." Cardan's body was swaying with blood-red aura as he ran towards the demon, holding a huge sickle made of blood in his hand.

"Death Transformation..." The magic of a 7-star necromancer. The unique magic of Charlotte, the Bloody Death God. The technique that Cardin also demonstrated when he dealt with Hamilton three years ago.

“At that time, we were just blindly increasing our strength. It was unstable then, but it’s not anymore.” Learning from Charlotte’s Blood Reaper, The overflowing power could not be handled properly, and more than one or two necromancers lost control.

But the consistency Cardin exhibits is eerie.

"Oh? Is it the guy the fox mentioned?" The demon wearing a spider mask exclaimed as he looked at Cardan running over.

"Not bad." The strong man who has completed the transformation into the God of Death while running quickly should not be underestimated.

“And is that little guy a vampire?” Even before the demon wearing the spider mask noticed, Luna had rescued the hostages. It seemed that the battle would last for a long time, and the spider mask shook his head.

"We finally captured the hostage." While he was thinking, Cardan had unknowingly run to the front, waving a huge blood sickle.

Snap! The man wearing the spider mask reached out to Cardin, and at the same time, a huge wall made of spider silk rose in front of him.

"Can you kill someone with such a blunt sickle?" As the demon said, the wall made of spider silk only had a slight crack, firmly protecting the demon. But there was no panic on Cardan's face.

"You're still smiling?" Instead, he seemed to be smiling easily. The demon suddenly felt something was wrong and took a step back, shooting a spider silk as sharp as a thorn at Cardan.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! The spider silk thorn shot out as fast as an arrow, but Cardin easily leaned to the side and dodged the attack.

Then he slowly straightened up, stretched out his hand that was not holding the sickle, and spoke.

“Road of the Dead.” Cardan’s voice had just fallen. Whoosh whoosh whoosh! With Cardan at the center, the area around him began to turn dark green.

"What, what is this?" Feeling as if death was eroding the surroundings, the demon wearing a spider mask panicked and tried to escape from this place.

Crack! Just then, a rotten hand suddenly stretched out from the dark green ground and grabbed his ankle.

"Damn it! What is this!" The demon struggled in panic, but the more he tried to get rid of it, the stronger the hand of the dead man became. During this time, Cardan smiled and said to the demon.

"Die in endless loneliness."
