A God Killed Me By Accident, But I Reincarnated As The 4th Son Of The Marquis

Volume 8 Chapter 36: How About I Test You? 

 

Oscar was a man of his word as he brought Carolyn to the nurse's office. The nurse glanced at her face, "There's nothing wrong. The redness can be healed." A light glow appeared on the nurse's hand. The redness slowly disappeared from his face.  

Oscar nodded, "Thank you very much."

"Brother, you need to leave," Oscar knew Carolyn wouldn't get any rest or calmness if that person was here. 

"Hmpf!" Felix scoffed as he exited. But the moment he was outside, his expression turned livid! 

Slam!

How dare he! How dare he talk to me like that! Remembering what Keith looked like made him furious. A noble lower than him talking down to him? That alone was something he couldn't stand. 

But what made it worse was it was Keith. 

There was nothing he could do against him. It was made clear to him when that incident occurred. After the incident, the brat should have been taken care of and executed. Yet, that never occurred. Julius waved it off and scolded him instead!

That made it clear that Keith was higher than him. 

"Prince Felix, why are you acting like this?" Alger turned his head to see Alger there. 

"Nothing. There's no need to worry," 

"Hmm? Did someone anger you?"

"..."

"I will go now." Alger looked away, but there was a slight smirk on his face as he walked away.

...

"Alright! Today's combat midterm will be a spar against an assistant instructor! You guys just need to survive for 5 minutes." Tennol instructed.

Simple and straightforward.

"We got this!" Herrick roared. That energy Scarlet and Alfia had was now transferred into the two. It was their bread and butter. 

"They have too much energy," Alfia shook her head. 

 

"That honey really rejuvenated him." Scarlet chuckled. But as they talked, Keith asked Carolyn, "How are you feeling?"

"I'm alright now. There's nothing to worry about!" Carolyn had a grin as she stared at him.

"...Okay," 

"Keith, it's Herrick's turn!" 

"Oh, this is going to be interesting." Let's see how much he has grown. 

Herrick went on the offensive from the get-go. The instructor quickly blocked the attack coming his way. However, that one blow made his legs buckle. 

As expected, his strength has increased. It was not a surprise by the beastman's strength. However,

There's more than just strength! The instructor waved his fist; Herrick wouldn't care about something like that. His usual was to charge in fiercely. 

Yet,

Hmm?! Herrick dodged and punched him right in the stomach. That definitely made the instructor buckle. Right! The instructor quickly raised his guard but was blasted away. It was not the end, as more punches came his way.

"What a ferocious speed."

"Those punches are so random."

"..." Not so. Herrick threw punches at weird angles. However, it was sharp. Each one was hitting a vital spot. Before Herrick could deal the finishing blow,

"I win."

"Goodness, you've improved so much." The instructor laughed. Even he was surprised by how fast Herrick had grown in such a short time. The child was using his brain now. 

 

"Of course!"

The instructor got up, "The next one up is Keith!" Another ringer was heading in. Before the match could begin,

"Hold on a second," Someone had called out, causing everyone to freeze. It was none other than the sword saint Issac. Tennol frowned, "What do you want?"

"How about I step in for this one." A voice interrupted.

"Huh?" Everyone froze.

Isaac turned to Keith, "Come, I want to be the one to examine you,"

"You're not even an instructor here." Tennol retorted. He wanted to do something. 

"But I should be more than qualified to fight against him. In addition, it wouldn't be called a test."

"You-"

"What does the child think?" Issac asked Keith.

"I'm down." 

"…" Everyone stared at Keith in wonder. How could he say something like that?

Oscar and Felix's expressions changed when they heard that. This was especially so with Felix. Was he planning something like this before? Either way, this was a good thing to watch! 

 

"Keith?! Are you sure?" Tennol questioned. 

 

"It's not every day that you get to spar with a sword saint. Why not take the chance?" Keith grinned as he stretched his hand back and forth. He had been interested in them. They were considered to be the strongest swordsmen. One was asking for him personally. 

Who wouldn't want to take the chance?

 

"…" Tennol sighed. This would be a good experience for him. He walked over to him, "Use everything that you've learned to deal with him."

"Understood."

 

"And you will be wearing gravity bracelets."

"Naturally," Fighting a child without any handicap was just bullying. Keith stretched his hands back and forth as he stood before him.  

"Is Keith insane?!" Ophelia muttered to Alfia and the others. Who would want to challenge the sword saint?!

 

"That lucky guy! I wanted to fight him!"

 

"…" Forget, I ask.

"Keith has always been one of those unpredictable types." Keith did things like Herrick and Melor from time to time. He may be reasonable, but these stints show his reckless side. 

Keith took out a large shield and spear. As expected of the sword saint…eh? Issac was across from him, holding a long sword in his left hand.

"Begin!" Tennol shouted.
