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

Keith headed to the barracks again the following day. However, he wasn’t planning to spar with anyone. Before him were a bunch of different weapons. A knotted expression appeared as the man stared. He had to decide today. The axe and spear were in each hand. 

Which one should I pick; it was between the two of them. 

Going forward as a tank, he needed to focus on one weapon. It had to fit himself; these two were the ones that came to his mind. 

Which one? And here lied the problem; the spear and axe were good. But they each had their drawbacks as well. One was slightly too awkward, while the other was missing a piece. While Keith continued to think about what to do,

“How about you choose a halberd?” The person who said this was Michael. 

“A halberd?” 

“Kid, if you can’t decide, then use that.” Michael sighed, “It’s perfect for a tank like you who wants space for slashes,” A wooden one was handed over to the boy, “This is a basic one, but if you want a custom, go to that bumbling dwarf to make it.”

Keith started to wave the halberd around. It’s the same as a spear. However, there was a small blade of an axe on the side. It has a good weight as well. It was heavier than the spear but lighter than the axe. 

“Let’s do this.” 

“Sure,” Michael already had a great sword in his hand as he swung it around. Keith did the same as he waved his halberd. 

The battle started, and Keith was the first to make the move. The halberd was swung down with great force. Michael responded as he swung his sword. Clashing with one another made a vibrant sound throughout the barracks. That was not the end, as a flurry of stabs followed. 

Michael frowned as he guarded against the blows. But there were many, causing a slight red bruise on the waist. Ohohoho, you want to play it like that? The expression on the commander’s face was something as he picked up the pace. Keith wasn’t stopping either as he continued forward. 

The two continued forward until Keith was out of breath.

“How are you feeling right now?”

“Actually better,” Keith grinned. He lost, but it was not such a one-sided loss. There were times when he got a hit in on the guy; it was different from the other times.

“But I think it’s a little light in my hands,” Keith swung it quickly. He knew it was wood, but it was on the lighter end. 

“Then you just need to increase the weight of the blade. That’s a good way to increase weight.”

“Sure. I should also change the shield.” Keith realized it. The shield he had been using was quite weird; his movements were delayed due to it. What was more, the shield had blocked his field of vision.

“The shield you used months ago wouldn’t work as well.” It was a small shield. If he wanted to be the team’s tanker, he needed to have a bigger one. 

“How about this one?” Michael then tossed Keith a round shield. It was able to cover the top part of his body.

“If you use this, you can move easier.”

Keith grinned. It would be easy to punch someone with this as well. Unlike with a square shield, a circle shield was much more manageable. The boy’s expression brightened with an eager look. If I could master this weapon, I would be able to help my team more. 

“Let’s train again!”

“No way! You need to go make breakfast, you brat! I don’t want to get destroyed.” Michael sweated. He had already taken a lot of his time by training him. If he continued to do so, then it would be a problem. Sophia and the others might get him!

“Oh yeah, I was planning to make something sweet for them to eat.”

“…Go!” Michael quickly pushed him away. It was more like he launched him; that guy’s super strength was quite something. This caused a slight chuckle to come from his mouth. 

That man always thinks with his stomach. It was unsurprising that after William and the others ate, they would do the same. 

Keith then headed to the kitchen, “Gus, we’re going to be making some delicious pancakes with a pomegranate sauce and cherry sauce on the side.” Obtaining those fruits, it was time to use them to make something delicious.

“Understood! What do you need me to do?”

“Cut the top part of the pomegranate; you will see the ridges; cut from there and then smack the seed out.”

“Understood.” Gus started to do that. While he did, Keith prepared the batter, mixing some flour, eggs, and sugar together. Milk was incorporated as well. Let’s add the vanilla juice to give it a better taste and smell. After some time, the fluffy pancakes were piling up.

“Boss, what do you want me to do about the flesh?”

“Can you do something with the flesh?” This was new. 

“It’s edible,” Gus took a bite; a snap sound soon followed. Following his move, Keith wondered. Hmm, this doesn’t have some of the pomegranate flavor. But there was a good feel to it; it had that snap sound that was like a cucumber. 

Maybe I could sprinkle sugar on it and use it as a garnish. That could work as well. Keith tossed strips into some sugar. They could be used as chips. 

“Now, to make the syrup.” Using the pomegranate and apple, he incorporated sugar into it. Slowly, the juices became stiff as it slowly dripped from the spoon.

Delicious. The juices of the pomegranate really complemented the fluffiness of the cake. As he continued to bite it, Gus did the same thing. 

“Big brother!” The two latched onto his legs. Keith grinned, “Did you two  wake up?”

‘Mmhmm!” “We smelled food.”

“Don’t worry, breakfast is going to have this. I’m also going to make some other things to add to it.” Keith then sighed, “And you guys can wait in the dining room,”

“Yeah!”

“…” Can’t believe you guys used them to check up on the food? He knew what they had done; these two would sleep much longer than the others since their bodies were young.
