System vs Rebirth Chapter 166 Reward (1)

Chapter 166 Reward (1)

"Chain Bind Rune."

"Sword Fall."

"Sword D'Dantalian."

Anna and Noel were moving around the walls, making sure to kill every single demon that threatened the city. Fortunately, there were around four hundred demons that besieged the city earlier, but due to the continuous effort of the soldiers as well as the removal of the demon leader, there were only a bit more than one hundred demons remaining.

Noel and Anna easily swept them away. The only hard part was to move around the city wall, considering the city was quite ma.s.sive.

They ended up using a few hours to kill these demons. Fortunately, Noel and Anna had been running a lot for their training, including the fact that they traveled to another place by foot. Their stamina looked endless to the point they covered the whole city without exhausting themselves.

Even the Saintess ended up retiring due to the lack of stamina. Of course, Noel simply asked her to enter the city to calm the citizens. After they finished all the demons, Layla could properly handle the citizens so that they knew what to do.

As expected, the Holy Knights that they sent separately to take care of the water supply had returned. According to the instruction, they should have eliminated all the demons in the area and the Saintess would take care of the people that would fetch the water.

After a continuous effort from Anna and Noel, they finally freed the city. However, the people were too busy to think about their water supply to the point a huge number of people were running out of the city to bring back some water.

It might be the first time for a city to actually help each other out to relieve themselves from this crisis.

Meanwhile, Noel and Anna took some rest in the Saintess' house because they had worked too hard during this relief.

"So, it seems that we have finished the jobs." Anna smiled, feeling relieved.

"Yeah." Noel confirmed.

"Our Group Mission was to kill the demons that surrounded this city, so I guess we'll be able to receive the proof of our completion now from the Earl."

"You handle that, I'm not going to bother myself with the Earl. It's better for another n.o.ble to meet another n.o.ble. It's not the place for a Fallen n.o.ble like me." Noel shrugged while looking away.

"You…" Anna wanted to rebuke him, but she couldn't. She was a part of the reason why Noel became a fallen n.o.ble, so it was clear that he said this just to spite on her.

Noel shrugged. "Whatever. I'm tired, so I'm going to retire first." Noel shrugged as he immediately went to a room designated for him. Anna also had one, but she could only watch Noel leaving.

'Why does he seem to be colder than usual? This is weird. Although his action didn't show it in the past few months, Noel should still have some hatred to me. Yet, he actually openly showed it this time as if something changed within him.' Anna thought, wondering what happened to Noel.

She didn't know that Noel had sorted a bit of his emotion and feeling after meeting the Moon G.o.ddess.

Although he wouldn't show it most of the time, he had to do it now and then to make sure that he didn't become too close to Anna to the point he forgot about his revenge.

He couldn't help but remember the moment where he considered Anna's confession seriously. If it was him from the past, he would deny it without hesitation. It was clear that Anna had changed a part of him, so if he continued to act that way, Anna might be able to completely change his heart sooner or later. Hence, a bit of coldness was necessary.

Of course, Noel also had another reason for retiring this early. He might be exhausted, but it wasn't enough to make him rest.

He simply wanted to check his system entirely, considering they had just finished the mission.

There were three huge gains in this mission. The first one would be the Moon Blessing.

Due to this blessing, he had the ability to see in the dark. Hence, Noel immediately moved to his bed and tried to check under the bed since the light couldn't reach the spot.

After that, he channeled a bit of Spiritual Energy into his eyes and the darkness soon dissipated as if the light illuminated it.

"So, this is Moon Blessing. It doesn't require too much Spiritual Energy and it's quite useful to fight during a complete darkness such as caves. We don't need a torch that can give away our location. As for during the night, well, it's quite useful as well since we have a longer vision range.

"The Ancient Ruin is going to come soon, so the Moon Blessing will show its might there. I'm waiting for the time I truly use this power." Noel nodded, satisfied.

Then, he immediately moved to the second gain.

The origin of this chapter's debut can be traced to /n/o/vel/b/in.

Skill Points: 21 Pts

He had received 21 Skill Points from the mission. There were several things he could upgrade, but what made him curious was actually the Undying Fire that Ardagan showed him earlier.

After learning more about Ardagan from the Moon G.o.ddess, it was clear that Ardagan's existence wasn't ordinary. He was a Spirit that was artificially created. If he compared the Freezing Crystal and the Ignition Sword, the explosion was actually more dangerous despite using less SP to learn. That was why it was clear that Ardagan's ability far surpa.s.sed that of a Demi-human Spirit. Ardagan might be equal or even higher than the Humanoid Spirit.

Hence, he had a great hope for this Undying Fire.

Although he was hesitated a bit, he still put 20 Skill Points to learn the Undying Fire. All the information was immediately transferred into his mind.

But he soon sucked a cold breath because the information was far beyond his imagination.

"This is…" Noel covered his mouth in shock, sorting the information right away to get a clear image. "Such a strong fire…"
