Reborn Soul Master: The Rogue's Counterattack

A mine near the city of Robain. A black figure quickly ran into the miners' dormitory.

Knock, knock. The figure gingerly touched the shoulder of a large man.

"Shh." When the man opened his eyes, the figure covered his mouth and whispered.

"Senior, it's me, Cardin." After Cardin revealed his identity, Klose's eyes lit up and the hand that was covering his mouth loosened.

"Where's Mentor Belid? Did you bring him?"

"Let's go out first." Klose nodded and stood up from his seat. Soon, the two of them quietly slipped out of the miners' dormitory.

"This way." The place where Cardin took Klose was the same as usual, deep in the mine.

"Mentor!" When they arrived deep in the mine, Belid was already waiting there.

"Long time no see, Klose. How are you?"

“I miss you so much!”

"Hush. We're in a mine, the noise will echo."

"Ah, yes!" Klose quickly covered his mouth with his hands, and Belid chuckled and walked up to him.

"Looks stronger, which is nice."

"Thank you for the compliment. I've heard a lot of news. The hope of the resistance, the eternal flame..."

"I'll be angry if you say that again." When Klose mentioned Belid's alias, she smiled coldly and warned.

“Isn’t this handsome?”

"I'm more ashamed than handsome." Belid coughed unnaturally and waved his hand. Then Klose said with a wry smile.

"Isn't it funny? As soon as the war starts, people give us funny names, don't they?"

“People call us heroes and give us nicknames only to avoid losing hope.” Although the nickname of a hero is also called fame, Belid doesn’t seem to like hearing that nickname.

"I heard Klose was called the Shield of Good Will."

"Yes. Isn't that handsome?"

"Does Senior Klose have an alias? But what's a shield? I've never seen you holding a shield before?"

"I once saved a group of refugees, and that's when I got this nickname. No one was hurt." Unlike Belid, Klose seems to like his nickname very much.

Klose's determined expression showed his pride.

"But, mentor. Cardin. When did you come?" Klose asked with his head tilted, and Belid sighed and said.

"We set out early in the morning, but it was too dangerous to teleport here directly, so we teleported to a nearby city first, and then rode over here on a skeleton horse."

"Skeleton horse?" Klose asked with his eyes wide open, and Belid pointed at Cardin.

"I arrived in the evening and have been hiding nearby. I recovered my magic power while I was there."

"Thanks for your hard work."

"Although I would like to chat for a while longer, I have something to do, so let's talk later?" Belid said with a happy smile, and Cardin and Klose nodded silently.

"First." Swish. Cardin cut a wound on the back of his hand with the dagger.

Whoosh - the moment the blood dripping from the fingers dripped onto the ground, Luna was summoned out accompanied by a red light.

"Hello." Luna looked around, then naturally raised her hand to greet.

"Luna knows how to distinguish between demons and humans. Luna will lead the way for you." Cardin pointed at Luna and Klose bowed to Luna seriously.

"please."

"Okay!" Luna smiled brightly and nodded, and then Belid also said to Luna.

"please."

"Yeah! I'll try my best too!" After the two of them greeted the vampire, Cardin spoke again.

"Teacher Belid. How many times can the teleportation and portal magic be used?"

"Not many. We need to teleport many people at once." The most important thing is to take Cardin away in the end.

"First there are three miners' quarters. I will bring them all quietly. The people will follow me well."

After Klose finished speaking confidently, Belid nodded and replied.

"Gather them together. It will be easier to open the portal this way."

"I'll help, too." Because it wasn't time to start a war yet, Cardin stepped forward to help.

"Okay. Although we haven't seen each other for a long time, let's finish the work perfectly first." Belid smiled and patted Cardin and Klose on the shoulders.

Soon after.

"Thank you, thank you!" The last miner also walked into the opened portal in the dormitory.

"Now all the miners have been sent away." "Can we go into the city now?" Cardin said easily while Klose and Belid were talking.

"Luna will also lead the way into the city."

"Cardan. Don't push it. Also, wait for the signal. Our goal is to end things as little as possible with a fight. Got it?"

Then Belid warned with a serious expression.

"Yes. I will try not to make you worry." Cardin smiled easily, and soon Belid nodded.

"Okay, let's hurry up. We have to finish this before the sun rises." Belid eliminated the portal, and then Luna walked out of the dormitory with a click.

"Those two people follow me." After Luna walked out quickly, Belid also moved quickly.

"Cardan." Klose stopped in front of Cardin, nodded and said.

"Thank you. Cardin. Thanks to you, I was able to rescue my friends."

"You can express your gratitude after we have completed the work perfectly. I would not be able to do this without my senior."

Cardin urged Klose to go faster, patting him on the back. Left alone, Cardin turned to the air.

"Have you found a suitable location?" Cardin, who stayed in the dormitory, said to the air. If others saw him, they might think he was crazy.

-Yes! Master! I have lived in the battlefield for more than 30 years and I have seen it, there is a very suitable place!

At that moment, a translucent ghost appeared in the air, and he stood straight like a soldier and answered.

"Well done. I'll ask you to lead the way then."

Luna, Belid and Klose sneaked into the city and moved stealthily and quickly around the city.

Robain is a city ruled by demons and the safest place for the resistance or revolutionaries.

Therefore, the security was very lax. No, there was not even a trace of the demons on the streets.

"There is no sense of vigilance at all." Klose, who was unfamiliar with this situation, whispered.

"Because it is the safest city for humans. However, don't let your guard down. The demons have more sensitive ears than humans."

"Yes, I understand, mentor." Belid reminded him to be careful, and Klose closed his mouth and nodded.

"First, over there. About 80 people live together there." At this time, Luna stopped and pointed to an old hotel.

"80 people?" In order to make it easier to manage humans, the demons did not assign separate residences to them, but instead instructed them to live together in hotels.

"A blessing in disguise? In that case, there would be no need to gather more people." Belid nodded with a wry smile, then looked at Klose.

"Let's go. I'll open the portal on the first floor, and you bring the people over."

"Yes, I understand. Where is Miss Luna?" Just as he was about to move, Klose called Luna cautiously. Luna looked at Klose with wide eyes.

"What's wrong?" "There are no demons in the hotel, right?"

"Yeah. There's not one, don't worry." Luna waved her hand to signal them to hurry up, and Belid and Klose quickly stepped on the ground.

on the one hand.

"Good. It's a good place." Cardan smiled as he looked at the south gate of the city of Robain from a distance.

"Thanks for your hard work."

-No, no! As long as my knowledge is helpful to you, I will be very grateful!

After Cardin praised him, the ghost that looked like a soldier floating in the air smiled brightly and puffed out his chest proudly.

"Then I'll go."

-Ah! Can I not help anymore? My countless war experiences may be helpful to the master!

"It's okay. I can be alone from here on." Cardin chuckled and waved his hand. The soldier-like ghost dissipated like mist and disappeared.

"Let's rest here for a while until we receive the signal." There was nothing Cardin could do now anyway.

Just sit quietly, waiting for Luna to send the signal and prepare for war.

"Huh." Thinking of the war, my heart beat uncontrollably. This was the first time such a large-scale battle had been fought. And the opponents were all demons.

He also felt the burden of having to hold off countless demons alone.

"Anyway, this isn't a fight to win. I've thought about this situation over the past three years and made some preparations, so it's no problem."

Cardin let out a long breath, his face relaxing.

"As the mentor said, if we can rescue people without a war, that would be the best outcome."

Soon, Cardan stretched out easily, sat on the ground, and looked at the huge wall of Robainnan.

"Even from a distance, there was no sense of vigilance." Why wasn't there even a soldier guarding the city?

When I infiltrated the miners, I wandered around the city every night, but I never encountered any demons standing guard or patrolling.

Although I occasionally saw demons standing guard, they were only near the lord's castle, and they all dozed off while on guard.

"Then rescuing the people shouldn't be too hard. The problem is the prison." It looks like there are a few alert demons wandering around in the prison.

There was no telling what the resistance fighters locked up in the prison would do, so the demons stood guard in the prison thoroughly.

Moreover, the prison is located underground in the lord's castle. Once discovered, countless demons will immediately flock to Belid and his group.

"I hope that doesn't happen..." - Cardin! Let's get started! As I was thinking, Luna's voice sounded in my mind.

"What's wrong?" Cardin stood up and said to Luna. -He was taken to prison! He arrived just when the demons were taking humans out of prison!

It seems that my luck is not good. I met the demons when they were taking humans out of prison.

"Tsk." Cardin smacked his lips regretfully and immediately activated his magic power.

Woohoo! In an instant, there was a wave around his body, and the wind started to blow.

Whoosh! Cardin activated his magic power and opened his hands.

"Remember death." As soon as the words fell, countless skeletons began to stand up.

Snap! Snap! Snap! This is not the end yet. Dozens of death knights led the skeleton army and stood in the front.

Snap! Snap! Undead "living armor" troops composed of armor appeared around Cardin and took a defensive stance.

Looking at the army of approximately 1 undead creatures, Cardan smiled with satisfaction.

"It's better to start with something flashy." But the war did not begin with a charge of legions of undead.

Cardin opened his arms again.

Then, in the open space at the rear of the undead army, bones protruded and began to gather.

Gulp. Soon, about 20 trebuchets were completed.

"Sit on it." After confirming that the trebuchet was completed, Cardan immediately summoned zombies consisting of goblins and goblins and asked them to sit on the trebuchet.

"Attack." The skeleton soldiers approaching the catapult made ropes out of blood ropes.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! At the end of the undead army, the sound of ropes being cut rang out, and the catapults began to move.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh! The zombies on the catapults flew towards the city wall without making any sound. When the zombies almost reached the city wall.

Whoosh. Cardin reached out his hand to the flying zombie.

"Bang." Cardin smiled and activated his magic. At the same time.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Explosions sounded one after another, and all the flying zombies exploded.

“This is truly art…”
