Reborn Soul Master: The Rogue's Counterattack

"It's done." Feeling the tip of the sword piercing Bezel, Matthias smiled confidently.

"..." Bezer looked at his empty left shoulder in shock. It was the part that was injured by Dimitar, and Matthias's sword pierced through it.

Not only that. Hurrah! The silver magic on Mathias's sword spun rapidly, and at the same time, Bezel's shoulder and arm separated.

"Damn it!" Bezer screamed for the first time and immediately kicked Matthias.

Poof! Mathias, who had no strength left, was kicked away.

Bang! Mathias fell to the ground and looked back at the entrance of the courtyard with difficulty.

"I'm sorry for getting kicked like that, Cardin. That's all I can do, okay? No, please."

With a smile, he lost consciousness.

"Damn human." From Dimitar to Gilbert, and then to Mathias, the continuous attacks eventually caused him to lose an arm.

Coupled with the fact that Dimitar destroyed the magic core, Bezel's plan was completely disrupted.

"Tsk. The only humans who are guardians of this kingdom left are that brat and the necromancer."

In order to open the door to the demon world, 5 sacrifices are required.

One of them, Dimitar, did not meet the requirements and now the vacancy must be filled from somewhere else.

And losing an arm was a considerable loss.

"I didn't expect to be able to hold on until now." Although Bezer felt pain, he still looked at the three people lying on the ground with admiration.

Having accepted the bloodline of the Demon King in a human body, he could actually push himself to this point.

"It will all be over as long as we open the door to the demon world. This kind of injury will heal quickly." Instantly, Bezer felt dizzy.

"Tsk. Was it because he was directly attacked by the holy power?" While being caught by Dimitar, Matthias's holy power was hit correctly.

Since then, I have been a little confused and my whole body feels like it is being burned.

“Hamilton should be able to do it.” Because of the damage caused by the divine power, his strength has not yet recovered and his physical condition also needs to be adjusted.

If you fight someone like this without recovering yourself first, you might end up in a dangerous situation.

“First, we have to deal with these guys.” Bezer stretched his hand forward, and starting from his hand, blood-red magic flew out like a bat, surrounding the three people lying on the ground.

The three people surrounded by magic power floated naturally in the air. Bezer frowned and walked over slowly.

"Wait a minute." A cold male voice came from the courtyard entrance. Bezer stopped and looked back at the courtyard entrance where the voice came from.

"Necromancer...?" Standing at the entrance of the courtyard was Cardan. Cardan's arrival here meant that Hamilton and the demons heading to the battlefield in front of the city wall had been completely destroyed.

"The little guy from the Montclair family was also knocked down." And Leiden, who was ordered to guard the gate of the lord's castle, was also knocked down.

"It seems that he is stronger than I thought." How could a necromancer defeat Hamilton, who was born as a guardian, and Leiden, who became a demon and became stronger? The weakness of a necromancer is definitely close combat.

"I've heard of your name. Cardin? Charlotte's only bloodline? The guy who always gets in the way of our plans. I've been wanting to meet him for a long time. So that's how it is."

Bazel said with a smile, while Cardin looked around the interior courtyard with a blank expression.

"The burn marks were caused by Mr. Gilbert's magic." He quickly assessed the situation. All three of them had lost consciousness, and the demon that exuded a terrifying aura had lost an arm.

"The three strongest men in the kingdom only had to cut off one arm and that was the end?" And their conditions all looked serious.

Blood kept flowing out of Gilbert's mouth and Dimitar was as pale as a dead man.

Even though Mathias looked the healthiest, the way he lost consciousness showed how exhausted he was.

"Tsk. The situation is not good now." This is the situation that Bezer did not want. He has not fully recovered yet and is still in a state of trance due to the divine power.

"Luckily it's a necromancer?" Cardan, who defeated Hamilton and Leiden, and had killed countless demons before.

Therefore, Cardan cannot be ignored, but compared to other professions, the Necromancer is not a big threat.

"Having defeated Hamilton, has he reached the 9th star level?" Bezer suppressed his irritability and asked with a bitter smile. But it was strange.

"Having fought with Hamilton, why do you look so calm?" Cardin looked in great shape.

He was not injured at all, nor was he tired at all. Not only that? The magic power he felt from him was above 9 stars.

It was amazing that Cardin reached 9th star in just a few months. Why could he sense the proficient 9th star aura from him?

Bezel looked at Cardin as if he couldn't understand. Cardin looked at Bezel with cold eyes and said.

"It seems that the finishing work will be left to me." Cardin said nonchalantly that he wanted to kill Bezel, and Bezel sneered.

"Your confidence is too exaggerated. Do you think you can kill me? I didn't expect that I would be teased by a little devil just because I lost an arm." Bazel frowned and began to release magic.

A vicious aura filled the indoor courtyard, and Cardin and Luna frowned at the same time when they sensed it.

"The opponent is a strong man who defeated the two guardians and Senior Mathias." Cardin did not relax at all.

Although he spoke confidently about dealing with Bezer, his heart was beating faster than ever.

Unease, fear, and panic made his mind confused. It seemed that Dimitar, Gilbert, and Mathias could only cut off one arm together, which seemed to have a shock to him.

"Luckily I made the decision to absorb all the souls." He also absorbed the souls of Hamilton and Lydon.

After entering the Lord's castle, he found the demons defeated by the two guardians and Matthias, and absorbed all of their souls.

Thanks to this, his physical condition was better than ever, and there seemed to be endless magic power flowing in his magic core.

In other words, he maintained his best condition, and thanks to the powerful soul of the noble demon, his magic core became even more powerful.

"Summoning the undead doesn't seem to work." Cardin shifted his gaze and looked at Luna.

"Luna, take these three people to a safe place while I deal with that guy."

"what?"

"Here...yes, the battlefield with undead creatures is the safest." Cardin said with a smile, Luna blinked and nodded.

"Descendant of Charlotte, how about becoming my demon servant? If you accept my power, you can be more powerful than any demon."

Bezel seemed to sense Cardin's strength and made a suggestion in a gloomy voice.

"Shut up before I pull your tongue out." Anger welled up in me and my heart was pounding.

Although he felt the fear of possible death, Cardin decided to seize the opportunity that the three people had desperately created.

"Okay, let's finish this quickly. I'm tired too." Bazel said and rushed towards Cardin.

Cardin was startled to see Bezel appear before him in just one leap. The red magic in his hand turned into a sharp blade and attacked Cardin.

"It's indeed different." Cardin hurriedly dodged Bezel's attack.

"He does have the ability to defeat Hamilton." After all of Bezer's attacks were dodged, he sighed in his heart.

Is this the melee strength that a necromancer can display? His reaction speed is faster than any knight's, and his ability to cope is also very good.

The strangely shaped dagger that was pulled out at some point was swung back, which was surprising.

"You are not a human being, are you?" Bezel sneered, temporarily stopped attacking and retreated.

"Bullshit."

"How can you reach that speed without using magic?" Bezel was genuinely puzzled. But Cardin seemed to think there was no need to answer and just sneered.

"That would be impossible without absorbing souls." Absorbing powerful souls not only restores physical strength and magic power, but also strengthens the magic core.

The more souls you decide to absorb, the better your physical abilities become, allowing you to perform actions beyond human capabilities.

"Just looking at the actions, they are more agile than knights above 8 stars? It's really tempting."

"I said I was going to kill you." Burning skulls appeared around Cardin.

Snap! Snap! Snap! The skulls collided with each other, making threatening sounds.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh! Dozens of skulls drew green lines and shot towards Bezel.

"It's a shame to use you as a sacrifice. I didn't expect you to be scared away." Bazel dodged the skull easily and observed Cardin.

"We have to find another sacrifice anyway, so if we can catch this guy and make him a demon, things will be easier." If Cardan becomes a demon, he will probably be stronger than any demon made so far.

If Cardan becomes a demon, it will only be a matter of time before he goes to other countries to capture guardian-level humans.

"Is there anything you want? Power? Money? Fame? Tell me, and I'll promise you."

"There's nothing else to do but kill you." But Cardin was decisive.

He doesn't seem to be interested in becoming a demon at all, and there is only determination to kill Bezel in his eyes.

"Then I can only take you away by force."

"Force? I don't like being taken to another place by force." Cardin said as he quickly activated his magic power.

"The Road of the Dead. Neropolis." Then his spell came out of his mouth, and at the same time Cardan and Bezel were sucked into a certain space.

"Where is this? The world of the dead?" Bezer looked around at the rapidly changing environment, feeling curious.

A place that has lost all colors, a dead place where there is no sense of life.

"Yes. I have always wanted to open the door to the demon world here." He smiled at the thought that he had finally arrived at the place he had always longed for.

"That gives you one more reason to become a demon." Bezel said and smiled, Cardin looked at him and answered.

"Shut up, you dying man." Cardan said with a smile, and dozens of necromancers appeared behind him.

“What?” Why does the soul form, although translucent, look more powerful than any human?

The sudden appearance of the necromancers puzzled Bezel, and Cardan sneered and pointed at Bezel.

"Seniors, that's the guy. The leader of the demon clan."
