System vs Rebirth

The Great Protector Dunne was an old man in his eighties. However, his body was still more muscular than even the people from the Demon Banner Army.

He read the letter from Raincart while squinting his eyes.

"Is this true?" The Great Protector asked.

"Yes. He has tried it personally. And I have brought two pills with me, so if you're unsure, one can try it to test its effect while I will leave one to what you want… Of course, after meeting the Grand Protector." Dimitri nodded.

The Great Protector thought for a moment. It looked like a beneficial deal for them. For a country that revered the strong the most, this pill would definitely bring a lot of changes to the kingdom.

If they took this deal, a future deal regarding this pill would be much easier since Noel would see that they trusted him.

Hence, it would be great if they actually accepted this deal for both parties.

"Your demand?"

"This is nothing but a distraction. I want you to act in that way. However, because you're like a surprise, I also want your kingdom to actually send some reinforcement by looping around the demon territory. Right now, we don't know where the Supreme Devil Organization… I mean, the terrorist organization that plagues the Muivell Kingdom is planning to attack.

"If you guard the west, we'll be able to narrow their attack area, which will allow us to focus on our force over there."

The Great Protector noticed that if they accepted it, it would become even more advantageous than he originally expected. After all, they were considered to have helped the Ardagan family.

This was not them taking advantage of Noel's expedition to make the Ardagan owe them a favor. It was his disciple asking them for help. It was different.

After some consideration, the Great Protector said, "In that case, get ready. I will lead you to the Grand Protector. However, I can't guarantee his reply."

"Understood. That's enough. Thank you."

"You can thank me later. In terms of benefit, I want the Grand Protector to accept the deal, but we'll see…" The Great Protector shrugged. In the end, they had met the Supreme Devil Organization a few times, especially with the second prince. So, he couldn't really predict how the Grand Protector would react.

While Dimitri was taking care of the Atracaeca Kingdom, there were already several movements happening in the Muivell Kingdom.

The first one was none other than Duke Lorelei and Countess Christina.

Countess Christina was sitting in front of Count Eyerin.

"Countess Christina. I hope that you don't make trouble for us. The royal family is watching you carefully. Unless you want to be charged with another treason, I hope you stay here. I'm sure that you won't be able to escape another execution…" Count Eyerin smiled, his face darkening.

Countess Christina was glaring at him, expressing her anger. However, Countess Christina couldn't do anything… or acted as if she couldn't do anything.

She snorted, "So be it. Get out of my room. I still have a lot of things to do."

While Count Eyerin had an easier time, the same couldn't be said for Marquis William, Marquis Steven, and Countess Diana.

"What are you doing? Are you going to stop me? I have just received enlightenment. I want to go to the demon territory to hack some demons. Don't stop me!"

Marquis William and Marquis Steven were literally holding his body.

"Duke Lorelei. The royal family would brand you as an enemy if you do this."

"Stop it, Duke Lorelei. Are you going to betray the kingdom?"

"We have the royal decree, Duke Lorelei." Countess Diana was presenting the royal decree.

"I'm not even helping the Ardagan family. I just want to go to the demon territory to test my new abilities. Or should I test it on you guys?" Duke Lorelei screamed.

"You can't!"

"Just stay put for a bit!"

All three of them were stressed because Duke Lorelei had been acting like a child. They couldn't really find any fault in his words. Even Duke Lorelei could show his Sword Transformation to prove his claim.

He just wanted to test it and the best place to test it was the demon territory, especially for someone at Duke Lorelei's level.

That was why they had trouble in stopping the duke. Even though he acted like a baby, the moment they made a mistake, the duke would use it to crush them.

It was as if they had to be a parent who couldn't even sigh in their heart after taking care of their baby.

"We need backup."

"Send a few more people. At this rate, we won't be able to hold on."

The three of them had agreed to ask for more people to handle them, meaning that they could only send one or two people to the Ardagan family.

They couldn't really do anything. After all, they knew that the duke didn't just want to go to the demon territory.

There would be the Supreme Devil Organization in there. Although they might not meet each other, Duke Lorelei could still actively search for them.

To erase the possibility of their meeting, they had to stop the duke here no matter what they had to do.

Little did they know, Duke Lorelei had sent orders to a few people so that the rune technology would be guarded closely to prevent anyone from sabotaging it.

With him being in the spotlight, they wouldn't realize such a thing. And the Tower Association couldn't cause any more trouble.

In other words, their only bullets were the laws that Elaine gave them and the rune car that almost hit someone.

Meanwhile, outside the border of the Muivell Kingdom, Leysha Ezenholm couldn't help but look around before asking, "Where is the Supreme Devil Organization? Are they not planning to attack the Ardagan family? Or are they going to take advantage of Josephine's portal to infiltrate them? Or maybe they're going to attack the Ardagan family's allies? This is getting nowhere."
