System vs Rebirth Chapter 184 Arrival

Chapter 184 Arrival

"Still, what's wrong with that Kirika? She's so hostile to me. Kirika Loetzel, a n.o.ble kid from the Greenwood Kingdom. She came to this kingdom abruptly and decided to ruin the Demon Banner Army by becoming the p.a.w.n of the Supreme Devil Organization.

"Now that I think about it, isn't Noel's family… Count Ardagan is certainly from this kingdom, but his mother is supposed to be from the Greenwood Kingdom, the Ezenholm Family. Don't tell me… Kirika is his fiancee or something?

"So, Noel actually has fiancee? Wait a minute. In my past life, the one who subjugated Kirika was none other than Noel instead of other people, who were stronger than him.

"There must be a meaning behind this. It seems that Noel was aware of Kirika's ident.i.ty in my past life? Was it because he paired up with her? Then, was that situation fabricated for Noel to deal with the Supreme Devil Organization?"

She fell silent, realizing something. It seemed that she had never thought this much. "I have been with Noel this whole time, so the chance for Kirika to reveal her ident.i.ty is never present. Should I give my spot to her like how it's supposed to be?"

Anna lowered her head. She didn't know why but she felt uncomfortable picturing both of them together. She shook her head helplessly, "Anyway, there's no proof that my conjecture is correct. And I am currently Noel's partner. I have no plan in letting someone get it."

She didn't realize that she was overthinking things, resulting in another misunderstanding in her head.

Still, she managed to regain her calm soon due to the matter in hands.

"I should focus on my plan. The trip to that place isn't that hard, but absorbing that many Demon Crystals will take a week or so? The faster the better." Anna nodded in agreement and immediately marched forward, heading straight to the original location of the treasure.

On the way, she found three Mid Level Demons that wanted to stop her. However, Anna simply took out her sword and covered it with lightning.

She struck the first demon with her lightning sword and somehow cut the demon's claws and ultimately split his body into half. After that, she spun her body and kicked a demon on the stomach, discharging the electricity until it created a hole on its body.

However, she still had one more demon to take care as the latter took the gap between Anna's movement to launch an attack from her blind spot. Unfortunately, Anna was able to move her body to the way she liked it.

When the demon was about to hit her body, Anna leaped into the air and spun her body, using the momentum to cut the demon's claw. As soon as she landed, she killed the demon in one swing.

It didn't take too long for her to take care of Mid Level Demon. If it was Noel, he would have used a longer time, but with his current amount of Spiritual Energy, he would have dealt with the demon easily. So, she truly needed the treasure hidden in this place.

"It's going to be harder from now on." Anna smirked excitedly as if she was ready for a hundred battles.

Despite the beautiful scenery, this valley was extremely deadly after all.

While Anna made her way to the destination, Noel had reached the Demon Banner Army's branch located three days from the border.

He immediately reported to the army for his mission. Unlike the fort, the army was stationed in the south of the city since they didn't have the full control over this city.

Since he was going to visit his family, Noel didn't hide his appearance this time or it would be suspicious later on. He went to the office and saw a quite small hall compared to the one in the fort.

In this place, the hall only had two clerks who were working behind the desk, accepting the people's complaints or reports.

Without hesitation, Noel immediately walked to them and handed the mission to him. "h.e.l.lo, I am an Apprentice Knight. I am here for a mission."

"Hi. Let me check a bit." The guy smiled, welcoming him. He read the mission. His face was distorted because this was the first time he saw a mission as ridiculous as this. But there was a commander's seal on it, so the mission was real. "Can I see your badge?"

Noel handed the badge without hesitation, proving his ident.i.ty.

After confirming his badge was real, the guy nodded his head and said, "According to the letter, there's a town two days away from here called Slavina. It's a small town, but that's the rallying point of an ordinary army of the kingdom. You have to go there to meet the informant in the bar after notifying the army.

"As long as you prove your ident.i.ty, there won't be anyone to stop you since our army is ranked only second to the royal army. Do you need anything to help you in this mission?"

Noel shook his head. "No. It's enough. I just want to inform you about this mission."

"I understand. After you investigate the area, please report it to the army. They'll send the copy to us."

"Understood. Thank you."

"You're welcome."

Noel then grabbed the mission and the token, planning to leave right away.

However, someone who had been sitting in the hall suddenly approached him.

"Wait a minute. Sir Knight!"

Noel furrowed his eyebrows and looked at this guy. He was a huge guy but all of them came from fat instead of muscle. His round face and slanted eyes gave him a friendly atmosphere, but the slightly oily face from sweat made one want to stay away from him.

However, Noel didn't care much about his sweat as he was more focused about the matter. "Yes? How can I help you?"

"I apologize, but I overheard your conversation. It's said that you're going to the border…"

"Yes."

"If you don't mind, can I tag along? I have to go to the merchant a.s.sociation in Slavina Town. There has been many demons lately, so I'm thinking about asking a knight from the Demon Banner Army instead of any other people to escort me. Do you think it's possible?"
