System vs Rebirth-Novel



In a remote village, Anna was standing on top of the roof, enjoying the gentle breeze.

She had come to this village to fulfill her mission, but at the same time, she was thinking about something.

The scene of the expedition as well as the people who participated in it couldn't help but flash in her mind.

Back then, Noel led the Demon Banner Army in Shale's stead.

"Go!"

"Attack there!"

"Send ten people to the west!"

Noel kept instructing the people while fighting against multiple Peak Level Demons.

When she saw this, Noel's figure couldn't help but change to that of his form in his previous life.

Noel was fighting against multiple enemies at that time. He never became a captain of a squad, but when he was a noble, he led an army of elites to fight against demons as well as the Supreme Devil Organization.

No matter how hard the situation he was facing, his back was as reliable as always. The people, who were about to fall into despair due to the long battle, regained their energy and courage just by looking at his broad back.

They knew they could depend on Noel.

She wasn't related to the Supreme Devil Organization, but she was also one of the people that attacked Noel. After all, Noel had forced her to endure all kinds of things. The hatred had piled up and she fought Noel continuously.

Anna gradually changed as if she had become annoyed just by hearing Noel's presence. At the same time, she was also curious. What kind of reason made Noel keep attacking her?

"Back then, I didn't know a single thing… not because the opportunity wasn't there, but because I refused to listen to all the clues around me. Noel kept attacking me, and I did the same. As time passed, my cloudy mind started to clear up a bit and I wondered the reason for Noel's action."

"Unfortunately, not long after that, Noel and I had to die together. We had been taken advantage of by everyone around us… the Third Prince, the Royal Family, and even the Supreme Devil Organization. Or it was only me… since Noel was smart."

"Nonetheless, after reincarnating, I always want to see something… What if, in the past, my mind was clear and I understood all the clues around me? Would I be able to become Noel's friend?"

Anna closed her eyes for a moment, recounting everything about Noel.

"Noel and I were supposed to become a Spirit Grandmaster four years later. However, that was because our pace wasn't as great as this."

"Also, due to the Demon Relief Squad having their Zero Squad destroyed, Noel didn't get the best group to join."

"Besides, there was also the mysterious facility. It was supposed to be cleared after another two years."

"The progress was extremely slow because of the uncertainty, and there were a lot of problems, such as the Demon Banner Army getting weakened due to the relentless attacks from the Supreme Devil Organization."

"They had lost a thousand knights due to Kirika's incident and even more due to the controlled demons. In addition to the constant annoyance from the Supreme Devil Organization, the Demon Banner Army couldn't put a lot of manpower into exploring the mysterious facility."

"However, one thing was clear for now. Once the mysterious facility had been figured out, there would be a lot of things happening due to the drugs. A year after the exploration was completed, there would be a pill that could force awaken one's spirit. I had managed to gain that person's cooperation, so I didn't have to worry about him too much."

"But there are a few more pills that will circulate in the market. And one of them is the Berserk Pill. It released all the latent talent of someone, using it in one go. As a result, the person who used it would be either crippled for life or die. But for a moment, the surge of strength would make a huge problem for the army. After all, there were a lot of lunatics in the organization."

"But because we have cleared it far quicker than in the past life, and because the Demon Banner Army remains this strong, the time limit should be extended a bit. That's why I want us to become Spirit Grandmasters within one and a half years."

"It could be said that the mysterious facility was one of the biggest reasons why the chaos even happened. I thought the expedition was for something else, but after seeing the building, I know that it's time…"

Anna couldn't help but recall the bet they had, including the little kiss. She became flustered just by recalling that action.

Before, she was still too cool because she was sorting her thoughts. There were so many problems that would occur, so most of her attention span was thinking about it.

The rest was to talk to Noel. However, that kiss was a bit unnecessary when she recalled it.

However, a part of her was actually a bit unsure of that opinion.

When she closed her eyes, she saw her past life.

She kept clashing with Noel. So, in this life, she wondered what would happen if she and Noel joined hands.

Noel had the power to keep up with her, who had the knowledge of her past life. It allowed her to skip all the training required to master a skill and focus on increasing her Spiritual Energy.

Yet, Noel could keep up with her speed. No matter what Noel was hiding, she was sure that it would be the key to a better future.

She remembered what Noel said before they died together.

"You're too naive."

"You can keep believing in your ideal. I don't care, for I have seen everything."

Anna muttered those words and let out a long sigh. "Yeah. I was too naive. I thought I was right, but I was the one who was wrong this whole time."

"That's why I want to see the correct choice… What if we join hands? Will our future be different?"
