Reborn Soul Master: The Rogue's Counterattack

The power to reject death. Chike's soul, whose body was taken away by Cardin, has returned.

"Is it resurrection?" The feeling of revival is fresh.

Although the strange feeling of the body reassembling itself was unpleasant, the immortal power that followed gave him confidence.

Chick Grimwald opened his eyes.

"Huh?" But it was weird.

"Am I still lying down?" I clearly felt like I was standing up. The feeling of standing with the soles of my feet supporting the ground.

But, like the man lying next to him, everything in his field of vision was rotated 90 degrees.

"What, what!" Chick shouted in panic.

"Then, is that my body?" The headless knight's body stood on the ground, standing very straight.

The sword in the knight's hand is obviously Chick's, and although the armor has some changes, it is also Chick's. Moreover, there is a neck where there should be one.

Hur! The blue flame burned in a solid shape.

“Could it be…” Chick quickly searched his memory and soon thought of a word.

"Dulahan?" The Dullahan. The highest level of undead creature, Dullahan. I didn't expect him to be resurrected as Dullahan.

"Well, first I have to pick up my head..." Since my vision was different from my moving body, I couldn't control it well.

His body swayed, he lost his balance and fell down, Chick frowned in frustration.

"Ah? It's okay." Maybe he gradually got used to it, but Chick stood up again and his body slowly moved towards the head.

"Take your time. Take your time." Controlling a familiar body felt so strange.

Chick's body edged closer and he cautiously reached out to pick up his head.

Boom - But the footsteps that followed kicked his head off like a ball.

As the wheels rolled, the view spun as well, and Chick felt dizzy and squeezed his eyes shut tightly.

"What is this!" Dissatisfaction seemed to be about to explode. He had to guard the western defense line, but he turned into an undead creature that couldn't even move its body properly.

How can you fight if you can't even pick up your fallen head?

Dong. At this moment, someone's hand grabbed the face of the rolling Zeke. The field of vision gradually rose, and soon a familiar face entered Zeke's eyes.

"Necromancer..." The person who helped him pick up his head was Cardin.

Since it was not the Death Knight but Dullahan who was resurrected, dissatisfaction would definitely erupt.

But Chick just looked at Cardin silently. Facing someone he dared not offend, his heart was filled with absolute loyalty.

"Greetings to the master." Chick closed his eyes and bowed. Then, with only his body left, Chick knelt on one knee.

Click!

"I'm sorry to revive you like this." Cardin carefully placed Chick's head on Chick's neck and continued.

"It is a death that cannot be resurrected as a Death Knight." If resurrected as a Death Knight, Chick will become the highest level undead creature among the Death Knights.

If the leader of the Knights of Colinfirth became an undead creature, his power would be beyond imagination.

However, he was beheaded and died, satisfying Dullahan's condition. Of course, this does not mean that Dullahan is weaker than the Death Knight.

On the contrary, it can be said to be a higher level of undead creature. Because it has to take the risk of protecting its severed head, it has gained great power.

Judging from the sheer strength alone, it is said that even the Death Knight cannot touch his power.

Moreover, as long as the head is not broken, it can be quickly restored even without the help of the necromancer.

"Don't worry. Although it's inconvenient now, you will get used to it soon." Cardin said with a trusting expression, and then slowly backed away.

Chick answered, pressing his head tightly against the hand that didn't hold the sword.

"Master, is Dullahan strong?" It was irreversible. Chick knew he couldn't go back on his word, so he quickly gave up and asked the question.

As long as it is strong, it will be fine. No matter what it is, as long as it can protect the western defense line, it will be fine.

"Yes. Very strong." Cardin smiled and nodded.

"That's good. That's good." For some reason, I felt an infinite trust in Cardin's words.

Perhaps it was because Cardan was his master that he felt a sense of trust, but it didn't matter.

"Since the master said it is powerful, if I can't use this body well, then I am not good enough."

Chick, who had become Dullahan, said this, and slowly turned around to look at the demon army in the distance.

My vision returned to the familiar height and controlling my body became much easier.

"I have really become an undead creature." Is this what the power of immortality is like? It feels like there is no such thing as fear.

"If the senior captains saw this, they would be shocked." The Glorious Kingdom Knights.

The Kingdom Knight, who should have died with honor, was transformed into an undead creature and resurrected.

"Well, what does it matter? Knights exist to protect what they want to protect."

Chick raised his sword, smiling inwardly.

"It doesn't matter if others point fingers at me. This is my chivalry."

At this time.

"Meet the master!"

"Meet the master!"

"Greetings, Master!" A familiar voice came from behind. Looking back, it was the knights who were trapped by anger and rushed towards the dead of Seriban.

They were also resurrected with new bodies.

"You look healthy."

Unfortunately, no one was resurrected as Dullahan. All were resurrected as Death Knights with their heads and bodies connected.

Although he felt a little bitter, this was irreversible. Chick consoled himself and looked at his resurrected subordinates.

"Look at this, master." Chick said to Cardin again while looking at his subordinates.

"Can I lead these guys?" It would definitely be an advantage if I could lead the subordinates I led in life even after death.

"Of course." Cardin also knew this fact, so he nodded readily.

"Besides, Anthony will be of great help." Cardan immediately called Anthony who was on the city wall. After hearing the call, Anthony immediately came to Cardan.

"Anthony... Meeting like this."

"Captain." Anthony bowed to Chick.

"Anthony! I didn't expect you to become a Death Knight!"

"Damn it. In that case, isn't Anthony a senior?"

"Why do you look stronger than us?" Then, the Death Knights from the Order of Colinfirth approached Anthony and expressed their joy.

"The Undead Knights of Colinfirth..." Cardin looked at the scene and smiled bitterly in his heart.

The leader and knights of the "Knights of Colinforth", one of the five great knight orders in the kingdom, became Cardan's undead creatures and were resurrected.

"Although victory cannot be guaranteed, at least we can hold on for a long time." Cardin looked at the Undead Knights and felt at ease. Then he stroked his neck and called the Knights over.

"Everyone of the Knights of Colinforth." Hearing Cardan's call, Dullahan and the Death Knights turned around and looked at Cardan.

"I promise one thing." Cardan looked at all the Dullahan and Death Knights and continued.

"I will send you away the day this war ends after we destroy the demons."

Then, Dullahanchik knelt on one knee and bowed to Cardin.

Boom. At the same time, his head fell off again. Chick quickly picked up the fallen head and tucked it under his armpit.

"Pledge allegiance to the master." Then, all the Death Knights standing at the back knelt on one knee, adopted the etiquette of knights, and shouted.

"Pledge allegiance to the master!" After accepting the loyalty of the Undead Knights, Cardin nodded and said.

"I'll take care of you from now on." After Cardin gestured for them to stand up, Chick and his knights stood up.

"You don't need to be afraid of death. Because I'm behind you." As soon as Cardan finished speaking, black smoke spewed out of his body and spread all over the battlefield.

The black smoke immediately turned into the form of Death Knights, and in the blink of an eye, about 100 Death Knights appeared.

"Then let's start the defensive battle."

The lord city of the city Robain.

"Long time no see. Fox." Pecos, wearing a horned deer mask, sat arrogantly and looked at Hamilton.

"The necromancer with Charlotte's legacy is here?" Hamilton said, mocking Pecos.

"They didn't come, but they took away my slaves and disappeared."

"Since destroying the Hero Academy three years ago, that guy has suddenly become active."

"Has the activity started?"

"Not only here, but because of that guy, the slave humans also escaped."

"…Is it the work site that was built near the northern city wall?" The city near the northern city wall that brought hope to mankind.

The true identity of that city is a workplace that mass-produces demons under the guise of "safety".

"Yes. The necromancer called the Mercenary King, who came with many mercenaries and took the human away."

"A guy who is also related to the Mercenary King. Interesting." Pecos clenched his fists unhappily. Then, an ominous aura slowly rose around him.

"I heard that even the precious Dream Mother died?"

"Be careful what you say, Fox."

"Wow~ Wow~ You're not mad at me. I'm here to give you a chance to vent."

"What does that mean?" Pecos asked in a voice full of anger, and Hamilton laughed.

"I'm doing something interesting now. Of course, it's something ordered by the higher-ups."

"Interesting things?"

"Attack on the western frontier."

"There should be the Knights of Colinfirth guarding there, right?"

"A rustic knight guard is useless." Hamilton shrugged easily.

"You seem so confident. Did you send the Knights of Clayton as well?"

"Yes. We need to send at least that many troops to destroy the western defense line."

"If this is his order, does it mean starting the war again?"

“It started the moment the western line fell.” After Hamilton nodded, Pecos shook his head in confusion.

"But what does attacking the western front have to do with a chance to vent?"

"The Necromancer and the Undying Flame disappeared together, right? Then the Necromancer will definitely appear on the western defense line."

"Why?" Undying Fire. To lure them, Belid deliberately attacked Radames, the city where the Western Revolutionary Group had its base.

Hamilton said this with a smile on his face.

"The Undying Flame is a guy who can teleport, so he might go directly to Radames."

"Yes. The situation in the east is not good either, so it's not easy to take a lot of people there."

"So maybe take a necromancer with you, who is also a great power?"

"Yes. If we continue to attack the western defense line, both of them will naturally go to the western defense line."

"So what do you mean by sending me to the western frontier to deliver the demons?" Pecos said angrily, and Hamilton smiled.

"No. Go attack Douglas." After hearing Hamilton's words, Pecos stood up from his seat and drew his sword.

"I have no idea what you're talking about. Attacking a place guarded by the Guardian and Lord Douglas? Risking my life as bait?"

"Whoa, whoa, calm down and listen to me," Hamilton said, holding out his hand as Pecos approached.

"The Colinfirth Knights cannot defeat the Clayton Knights who have become demons. In other words, the Undying Flame will go to Douglas to request reinforcements."

"so what?"

"Just buy time. Until the western defense line collapses."
