System vs Rebirth Chapter 418 New Mission

Chapter 418 New Mission

Two months later.

Noel was wearing a white uniform with a long white cape. The color was the exact opposite of his previous uniform, but it matched his current appearance.

He walked confidently with a smile before hearing Rose's voice.

"Ah, Iadre. You're here." Rose waved her hand with a smile as she walked beside him.

"Yeah. I heard we're going to receive a mission soon." Noel nodded with a smile.

"If I'm not wrong, the mission this time is a supply problem. Though, I don't know much about the details." Rose explained while looking up as if recalling the information.

"Is that so? Will Captain Clara lead us this time?"

"Nope. The Captain has other work to do. So, it'll only be seven of us." Rose shook her head, disappointed. "Though, I have learned a lot about the runes. Since this is going to be a mission where we can unleash all of our strength, I'm planning to show you the result of my training."

That was right. During the past two months, Noel had been teaching Rose about Runes. He was sure that the Third Prince was going to observe him, so teaching Rose was a method to make the Third Prince believe three things.

The first would be the proof of Noel's words. He could prove that he kept experiencing the rune and improving it. It was shown by Rose's progress.

The second was that the runes were still incomplete. Noel, of course, taught Rose the complete rune, but in his system, some runes were still at level one while the others were at level three.

Noel taught her some level three runes such as Increase Agility Rune and Strength Blessing Rune since it would be necessary for battle. But he taught her more about the level one runes.

Last but not least, Noel wanted the Third Prince to know that this knowledge could be pa.s.sed on to someone who wasn't good at Runes. Just like one could become an expert by picking up a weapon for a period of time, they could also become a Rune Master if they were taught properly.

It increased the Third Prince's evaluation on Noel a lot since Noel would be an important piece to get people interested in Runes.

If he decided to torture him for the information, they would end up losing everything since Noel would act defiant. On the other hand, if they tried to get Rose, they might be able to threaten him, but Rose had already sworn loyalty to him. Her loyalty didn't need to be questioned.

That was why the Third Prince couldn't act for the time being. He could only wait for Noel to finish everything and get it from his hand.

Noel's plan in the past two months had succeeded since there was nothing happening around him.

And currently, he was walking with Rose to receive their new mission.

When they reached the tent, everyone seemed to have been waiting for them.

"I'm sorry for being late," said Noel calmly.

"It's fine." Paul waved his hand and pointed at the two empty seats. "You two should take a seat first. I'm going to explain our mission this time."

They nodded and took their seats. After that, Paul took out the letter and showed it to them.

"Our mission this time is located in the City of Edell, which is used as a supply point to the Surkhan Fort. It seems that there are a lot of demons around this area, so we're going to work together with the Demon Hunting Squad to handle it.

"You should expect multiple Peak Level Demons and a huge number of demons. Due to the supply problems, the fort couldn't function as a barrier, thus causing more problems on the inside. So, we have to fix the supply route." Paul explained with a calm expression.

Rose raised her hand. "Sorry, Paul. I don't understand why we need to go there… I mean, shouldn't the Sword and s.h.i.+eld aid them there? The s.h.i.+eld can help the fort while the Sword can hunt the demons to fix the city. I don't think the problem is this shallow."

"I'm also aware of that possibility. However, I can't conclude anything before looking at the situation myself." Paul shook his head helplessly. He also didn't know what to do, but they still had to go there since the mission had arrived. "Do any of you have an opinion regarding this mission? It's going to be a bit dangerous, but since we're working with the Demon Hunting Squad, it shouldn't be that hard."

"This Demon Hunting Squad… Which squad they're sending?" Jonathan asked.

"The Zero Squad," Paul answered without hesitation.

"I see. That will make it easier. But I don't really like other squads that much. They are too arrogant." Jonathan let out a long sigh.

"How about we beat them and shut them up?" Stella smirked, getting fired up.

"I don't really care personally. Without us, they can't function anyway." Zion shrugged.

"As long as they don't provoke us, we won't do anything. Though, I heard they also have a super rookie…" Ben added while glancing at Noel, wanting to hear his opinion.

Noel remained silent for a while before saying, "I don't have any interest in competing with others. I have my own goal. As long as he doesn't stand in my way, then he's not my enemy. But if he stands in front of me… I don't mind beating him up until his parents can't recognize him anymore."

Paul nodded. "Then, that's decided. Pack up your luggage. We'll be leaving after lunch."

"Understood." They nodded and stood up, leaving.

Meanwhile, Rose came to Noel and whispered to him the information about the new guy in the Demon Hunting Squad. "I heard this new guy was only eighteen years old, and he managed to become a Spirit Wielder in just three years."

"I don't want to make any enemies if possible. But if it's not possible, then…" Noel shrugged. Although Noel didn't say it, he might do something to eliminate the threat.

Rose smiled awkwardly, just believing in Noel and hoping that the guy wasn't annoying.
