Reborn Soul Master: The Rogue's Counterattack

"Why is it so intact?" Belid looked at Cardin with an expression of disbelief.

Even when fighting against the highest level demons, Cardan didn't even have a small wound on his body.

"I thought I might die..." Even if I didn't die, I thought I would at least be in a state close to death.

But why does it look like someone who just arrived here, intact?

"How are you?" While Belid was confused, Cardin approached and greeted Belid respectfully.

"Hmm? Ah, yes. I'm doing fine," Belied replied with his eyes wide open in confusion.

"Are you seriously injured?" When Belid suddenly spoke, Cardin shrugged and looked at her body.

Although there are many small wounds, they don't look serious.

"Oh? No, it's okay." At this time, Belid came back to his senses and shook his head hurriedly.

"By the way, you've grown a lot taller?" Then, Belid looked at Cardin who was taller than him and said.

"Although our heights were about the same until three years ago." Looking at Cardin, who was taller than him, Belid felt the passage of time and sighed with a wry smile.

"Teacher, you are still so young."

"You're really good at talking. So, what happened? What did you do to that demon?"

The joy was only temporary. Belid hurriedly checked Cardan's body and asked.

"Well, this..." Since it wasn't a secret, Cardin slowly explained what happened in "The Road to the Dead".

"What nonsense." As soon as Cardin finished speaking, Belid sneered and shook his head.

The disciple's growth is certainly a happy thing, but I didn't expect that a 7-star necromancer would defeat the highest-level demon without any damage.

According to Belid's knowledge, this is impossible. This is absolutely impossible.

"However, fortunately, we returned on time." Cardan said with a smile. If it was any later, Belid might have been kidnapped by the demons.

Fortunately, Cardan arrived in time before the battle of Belid and the situation was averted.

Although one member of the Revolutionary Group died and three were seriously injured, they were fortunate to have encountered only minimal damage against the highest level of demons.

"But Cardin, how do you know this place?"

"To visit my mentor, I went to the 'resting place' in the city of Luban." In response to Belid's question, Cardin told the story of meeting members of the revolutionary group who came to seek support.

"You came here because you have nowhere else to go? Have you found all of Charlotte's inheritance?"

"No, we haven't found them all yet. They are said to be hidden in many places." Cardin chuckled and shook his head.

"Can I ask what those inheritances are?" Belid seemed to have difficulty even standing and sat down on the ground and asked.

thump.

Cardin naturally sat next to her and continued the conversation.

"So far only necromancer's spellbooks or books related to lore. Occasionally, the highest quality undead material."

"Ah, I forgot about that."

"what?"

"The fact that you are Charlotte's last disciple and son."

Considering how powerful Charlotte is and how fast Cardan is growing, it is not impossible for Cardan to deal with the highest level demons alone.

If Cardin inherited at least half of Charlotte's talent, then the impossible is not impossible.

"Well, so why am I here to see you? If you're still looking for the inheritance, it's not because you have nowhere else to go."

"Actually, I have a request."

"Request? What request?"

"I need the mentor's magic." Hearing Cardin's answer, Belid frowned and motioned for him to speak carefully.

"I want to rescue the people of Robain City."

"What? Robain? Did it come from there?"

"Yes."

"Did you join the resistance? No, why would you go to such a dangerous place?"

"I had to go north for something, and was kidnapped by the demons. When I opened my eyes, I was already in the mines near Robain."

Cardin said with a smile, and Belid smacked his lips and shook his head.

"You wanted to be caught on purpose. How greedy."

"is it?"

"Anyway, you want to rescue the people who have become slaves?"

"Yes. So I need the mentor's transmission." Hearing this, Belid frowned and shook his head as if in embarrassment.

"There's no problem with teleporting or opening the portal itself. It's just that if we want to rescue all of them, there might not be enough magic power."

No matter how good Belid is, his magic power is not infinite.

There might not be enough magic power just to teleport people en masse or open portals, and of course combat is impossible.

"I will buy myself some time. I have already grasped the location of the enslaved people, and that guy will be the one to guide them."

Cardin naturally stretched out his hand and pointed at Luna who was sitting on the ground pulling weeds out of boredom.

"Don't look at her like that, she's a vampire. Don't worry, she can tell the difference between demons and humans."

"Vampire?" Belid looked at Luna curiously, and Luna waved. Belid also waved naturally, responding to Luna's greeting.

"No, compared to this, how about buying time? What method?" Soon, he looked at Cardin and continued to ask.

"Are we going to go to war with the demons in the city of Robain?"

"Yes." Cardin nodded decisively, and Belid sneered.

"You mean we're going to fight the resistance?"

"No, I'll go alone. Sensei just needs to rescue the people with Luna and Klose-senpai."

"Klose? Could it be the Klose Douglas I know?"

"Yes. Klose-senpai, who graduated from the Hero Academy three years ago, is also lurking there."

He also told several members of the resistance who were imprisoned, and that Lucas and Arad, who were from the Hero Academy, were also captured.

“Why are those two kids there…” Hearing this, Belid looked at Cardin with his mouth open in shock.

“Not only to rescue those who were being treated as slaves, but also to rescue those who were being held in prison.”

If a resistance member who is accidentally captured is transformed into a demon, the demon will gain tremendous power.

"This isn't a war to win. It's just a fight to buy time until everyone is rescued." It's possible.

Cardan is a necromancer known as a one-man army. If the battle is a matter of time, Cardan alone is enough.

"I know it's possible, but it's dangerous. It's too reckless." But Belid tried to stop Cardan.

No matter how talented he is, as Charlotte's only disciple and son, he has to face thousands or even tens of thousands of demons alone.

Although this is a war not for victory but for buying time, the fact remains that lives are at stake.

"I'm not saying this lightly. If the mentor can help, we can save them all."

After Cardan finished speaking, there was a moment of silence between the two. Although the disciples were caught, it was not an easy choice.

If anything went wrong, Cardan, Belid, and everyone else there might face death.

"It's very dangerous now. Cardan just fought with the demons, and I also need to recover." Soon, Belid broke the silence.

"That's fine with me. How long will it take you, Master?"

"It will take at least one day. If teleportation magic is used extensively, it will take at least that much time." Belid played the most important role in this operation.

Therefore, you can only cooperate with her from the beginning to the end of the battle.

"So, will you help us?" Cardan asked carefully, and Belid sighed deeply and nodded.

"What else can we do? There are three old disciples there."

"Thank you..." Cardin stood up and saluted respectfully to Belid.

At this time.

"There, over there!" People's voices came from the entrance of the forest.

Looking back, I saw the members of the Revolutionary Group that I had seen in the "resting area" before running towards where Cardan and Belid were, fully armed.

"Mr. Bailey, are you okay?"

"Demon, where are the demons?"

"Today I'm going to kill all the demons!" As soon as the members of the Revolutionary Group arrived at where Cardan and Belid were, they drew their weapons and prepared to rush in.

"It's over." Belid stood up slowly and brushed the dust off his clothes.

"Mr. Bellid! You seem to be seriously injured. Let's treat you first!"

"Is your disciple okay?" After confirming that there were no demons, the members of the Revolutionary Group looked at Belid and Cardan and asked the question.

"Oh, I'm fine." Cardin seemed unused to the noisy atmosphere and waved his hand awkwardly.

"Let's go back and rest. This friend has taken care of it, don't worry, let's go back to the 'resting place'."

Belid pointed at Cardin and said, the members of the Revolutionary Group immediately shut their mouths and looked at Cardin with strange eyes.

"The Necromancer...defeated the demons?"

"No, isn't he said to be Mr. Bellid's disciple?"

"To be exact, we met at the Hero Academy, but I didn't teach him directly."

"Three years ago, you said he was a first-year student?"

"Oh, how strong is he?" The members of the Revolutionary Group looked at Cardin in surprise and whispered.

Cardin sighed briefly, then hurriedly pulled Luna along and followed behind Belid.

the next day.

"Kadan, did you have a good rest?"

"Yes, mentor, how are you?" Cardin and Belid greeted each other easily when they met on the first floor of the hotel.

Belid ate bread and coffee leisurely, and Cardin sat next to her naturally.

"Have you got a meal yet?"

"I don't usually eat breakfast."

"I have to eat. Please wait a moment." Belid, who had finished his breakfast soon, washed his hands easily with magic and looked at Cardin.

"I have fully recovered. If I don't fight and just use teleportation, there should be no problem."

Yesterday, Belid arrived at the Revolutionary Group's secret base "The Lone Traveler's Rest" and immediately fell asleep after receiving the priests' recovery magic.

Thanks to that, Belid was clearly in much better shape than he had been the day before.

"Where's Cardin? Is he okay?"

"Yes."

"Again, to rescue everyone, we must conserve as much magic power as possible." In other words, we cannot help in the battle.

"Don't worry about that. Although the captured resistance members can't use force, Senior Klose and Luna will help you."

"When will the war start?" Belid asked with a serious look, and Cardan smiled easily.

"As soon as the danger signal comes, we will immediately start the war."

"Danger signal?"

"Luna. So, like the vampires you saw yesterday, we can communicate even when we are apart."

"Blood Contract? I've heard of it. Although this is the first time I've seen it with my own eyes."

"Yes, that's right. Thanks to that contract, I can even have telepathic conversations with vampires."

"If we can rescue people without being noticed, Cardan won't need to start a war?"

"Well, that's the best way, if it's possible," Cardin replied with a wry smile.

The possibility of rescuing the city dwellers who were taken as slaves and those imprisoned without being noticed by the demons was obviously very low.

"I will try my best."

“I will also try my best.”

"Then let's go?" Belid smiled happily and snapped his fingers.

Whoosh! At the same time, a portal appeared in front of the two of them.

"Luckily I've been to Robain. If I hadn't, I wouldn't be able to open the portal."

"Oh, really? When have you ever been to such a far place..."

"This is the fate of a magician who learns teleportation magic. Only by traveling around can you go to various places." Belid said with a smile, then looked at the innkeeper and spoke again.

"After rescuing the people, I will send them to the base. Please wait and take care of them."

"Don't worry. I'll be ready. Please come back safely."

The innkeeper said there was no need to worry and patted his chest. Seeing that scene, Belid chuckled and nodded.

"Cardan, I'm leaving first, follow me." After saying that, Belid walked into the portal first.

"This is my first time fighting on a war scale." After taking a brief deep breath, Cardin greeted the innkeeper.

"Then, I'm off."
