System vs Rebirth-Novel

The other two kingdoms also had a similar talk. But because they couldn't understand why Noel wanted to spread this knowledge in their territory, they were a bit more careful than the Greenwood Kingdom and the Muivell Kingdom. Even if they did something, it would be far later than those two Kingdoms.

The Greenwood Kingdom was considering a peaceful and beneficial relationship. Meanwhile, the Muivell Kingdom was looking at Noel's name as plague.

Still, the knowledge was already out and no one could stop them from spreading anymore. Even if they had the ability, they wouldn't do it, considering the other kingdoms also had it. It would only cause their kingdom to be weaker than the rest, so even a foolish king wouldn't do it.

The one who felt relieved the most was Countess Christina.

She was sitting in her office with a radiant smile. She was reading the report about everything that happened after she spread the knowledge.

"To think everything is going according to his plan… Count Leinberd and Marquis Walford have died. And there is no successor to their families, which means they will be a neutral territory under the royal family's jurisdiction for the time being.

"This way, I don't have to fear any threats around my territory. Even the royal family wouldn't investigate me since they have their hands full with the problems the two families caused.

"As for the Third Prince, he hadn't come back to me to interrogate me. As that guy said, I have done my job, so there's no need to get involved anymore.

"The kingdom will have a big headache with this matter, which will cause them to slow down for a bit. Meanwhile, Noel could take this chance to grow his strength.

"Though I'm more worried about his safety now. He told me there were two possibilities that the Third Prince would bring. First, he will try to keep him alive. After all, Noel is the author of that book. His extensive knowledge will be useful in researching more about the runes. So, the Third Prince might ask him to continue with the research and try to save him whenever someone tries to kill him.

"Even the Royal Family has to think twice before killing Noel. After all, Noel is the most talented person that can research this power.

"But because he spreads this knowledge to all kingdoms, it will cause a lot of people to research this new knowledge. All those people are older and more experienced than him, so their words look more credible than his words.

"So, the Third Prince might kill Noel to avoid future trouble. Although the progress will be a bit slower, the runes will still be developed. Even I can somehow research the runes. So…"

Countess Christina closed her eyes for a while. She sighed. "I guess the Third Prince will choose the former. After all, the Ardagan Family was loyal to him, even if he tried to deliver the book through me… The Third Prince might doubt Noel, but it didn't change the fact that he didn't have enough proof that everything was his plan."

Countess Christina couldn't help but shake her head, feeling defeated. "To think the one who came up with this plan was a young boy… I wonder what kind of terrifying existence he would become in one or two decades. Though, he has to stay alive until then."

Yes. Noel had predicted everything due to his father's teaching. As a merchant, one had to look at their customer's options and abilities, allowing them to suggest something that would suit all their conditions. That was the reason why the customers would follow their suggestion and buy it.

Noel simply applied that lesson in this scenario. He understood what the Third Prince wanted and what kind of price he would pay. He utilized it to kill the two nobles and cause this ruckus. He also considered Count Leinberd, Marquis Walford, and the royal family.

That was why everything went according to plan. Still, the biggest factor that allowed the plan to succeed was none other than the brothel.

The brothel had helped him with a lot of information. They were the ones allowing him to measure people's options and abilities, after all.

Although they couldn't accompany Noel all the time, they could assist him whenever Noel went to the brothel to ask for help. Unfortunately, Anna didn't enjoy the same benefits.

After this cooperation, the brothel would recognize Anna, but they wouldn't help her. After all, the brothel was not her or her family's possession. They stemmed from Ardagan.

As for this Ardagan, who caused all this mess… he was actually sitting on a bench outside the house provided by the Demon Relief Squad.

After returning to the Demon Relief Squad's headquarters, he took some time to let his body rest. He had overworked himself for the last few days by utilizing his power all the time to understand more about the new techniques. There were a lot of techniques, after all.

He was resting his body so that he could complete the next mission, which was the Third Prince's mission.

It seemed that he and Rose were the first ones to return. They had to wait for the others to return before they received the next mission.

And with the recent problem, the Supreme Devil Organization would focus on the runes instead of him. In addition, they had rested for a few months, so the matters should have already been buried in the first place.

Hence, their new start should come with a fresh beginning. As long as they didn't provoke the Supreme Devil Organization directly, they wouldn't have any problems for a while.

Not long after, the rest of the Demon Relief Squad's members returned to the headquarters. And it was time for them to receive the mission from Clara.

When they reached her office, the atmosphere suddenly became tense as Clara glared at them with a dark expression.

She opened her mouth, stunning everyone.

"Your next mission… might be more dangerous than you think."
