System vs Rebirth Chapter 1258: Recognized

Chapter 1258: Recognized

Boom!

The explosion engulfed the entire entrance, causing the people to notice the fight between them.

"Big Brother?!" Sui was shocked but he wasn't far enough to avoid the blast. To his surprise, before the blast reached him, a shadow appeared and pointed its palm toward the blast, causing the energy to ripple and avoid them.

When the explosion settled down, they found two figures standing face to face.

The first was Noel, who remained standing. His hand was still catching the fist while the other hand was on the sword, ready to draw it if necessary.

The second one looked at Noel with his sharp gaze, noticing that his punch did nothing to him. In addition, there were flickers of ice energy that looked like it was trying to freeze him but to no avail. Considering he did nothing to protect himself against that energy, it meant the other party was still holding back.

Noel furrowed his eyebrows, examining this middle-aged man. He also noticed another spirit transcendence in the area.

"Father? Sister?" Sui gasped but soon got angry. "What are you two doing to my savior?!"

"Savior?" The middle-aged man widened his eyes in shock.

The reason Noel hadn't done anything crazy was because of what he saw in the Affection Medal.

He could see his name, which was similar to Sui's. His affection was also suspicious, not hostile. This meant he was only wary of him and didn't plan to fight him for real.

However, it might change depending on what Sui said.

Noel couldn't help but glance to the side, finding a beauty standing in front of Sui. The woman was a little older than Anna, but her gaze was fierce. She was wearing a sleeveless s.h.i.+rt and shorts, which allowed her to move freely.

But the things that piqued him the most were her gloves and the headband.

"I don't understand why I'm being suddenly attacked like this. Does a clan really have no morals or etiquette? If you really want to fight, I don't mind giving you a fight." Noel's expression turned cold.

"Father, Sister!" Sui gnashed his teeth, glaring at them. "Why do you attack him? And Sister, why do you not even stop Father?"

The man took a deep breath. After contemplation, he took a step back and retracted his punch.

"Who are you? Even though I can see that you have a bit of a similar feature to the people on this land, you don't seem to be coming from here."

"He is from the west," said Sui.

"West?" The man frowned even deeper before asking, "You are not from this land, aren't you? You are from somewhere much farther from this land… the land beyond the sea."

"Huh?" Sui was confused because he had never heard of it.

Noel remained expressionless, as if he were trying to avoid giving too much information from his reaction. However, he never intended to hide his ident.i.ty, especially from a clan like this.

In the end, he wanted to find the fourth commandant's descendants. He didn't know whether they would still honor the words of their ancestor, but he just wanted to take the headband. It didn't really matter if he had to fight for it.

Still, if it could lead to a peaceful negotiation, it would be good for both sides.

"You are from beyond the sea, Big Brother?" Sui asked with an innocent face.

Find your next adventure on mvl

"Yeah." Noel nodded. He never intended to keep it. In the end, this clan could also be the vital point for their transaction. The Zaecuria Kingdom would definitely love to have such a thing.

However, it didn't mean he would just accept the beating without any reasons.

Noel took a deep breath and said, "I am from what you call the land beyond the sea. I don't know if it's the same, but I came to this land because of a certain person who was once connected to my family. His name is Ihui Makaveli."

"Ancestor?!"

All three of them recognized that name and Sui was the loudest about it.

The middle-aged man turned solemn, looking at Noel. "What is your name?"

"Noel… Noel Ardagan."

Sui tilted his head in confusion, but it looked like the middle-aged man and Sui's sister recognized that name.

Even Noel didn't expect that the first clan he found was actually related to him. Then again, they came straight to this place, so there was a high chance they were connected. It didn't seem like Ihui ventured far to the north.

"What's wrong? Father, Sister… Do you recognize his name?"

The middle-aged man closed his eyes and sighed. "I apologize for my rudeness earlier. But do you want to talk in another area? I believe this place will be crowded soon."

Noel could sense the people from this clan starting to gather around the entrance to check the situation. They were ready to fight if it was necessary.

Noel nodded. "Alright. Let's do it that way."

After reaching an agreement, the four of them disappeared as Sui was carried by his elder sister.

The place they brought him was a courtyard. It was still within the clan's mansion, which made Noel raise his guard.

However, the other parties seemed to have dropped their fighting spirit, showing no sign of aggression.

"Please." The middle-aged man extended his hand to the side, asking him to follow him in.

The room was completely empty with little decoration. However, it was quite s.p.a.cious and clean.

"I hope you don't mind with this room." The middle-aged man started talking. "A thousand years ago, this land was ravaged by the demons. All the people who managed to survive did their best to avoid the demons.

"It reduced the number of people on this island by more than 95%. When we started to lose hope, Ihui Makaveli came to this land.

"He brought changes to this island, introduced the spirits, and taught martial arts. The seeds he sowed that day became the foundation of all the clans on this island.

"And this clan was where he resided."
