System vs Rebirth

Chapter 643 Agreement

ʼThis guy is a crafty type. I guess like father, like son…ʼ Milfa thought, feeling annoyed. She had realized that her arrival here was a mistake.

It ended up piquing Noelʼs interest. Now that the situation had turned around, she had to find a plan to escape from Noelʼs plan.

And it seemed that there was someone to save her. Though, it wasnʼt a person.

*Roar!*

A roar filled the area as Noel, Milfa, and Dimitri turned around, locating the source of the roar. That roar alarmed a few more demons as they marched toward their locations.

”Ah, there are some demons. Iʼm going to kill them for a bit.” Milfa didnʼt hesitate to run, not wanting to have anything to do with Noel.

On the one hand, she could hit Noel right here and force him to stop. On the other hand, Noel was protected by Dimitri. There was no way she could harm Noel if Dimitri was standing next to him.

So, she had to escape first and try to find another plan to turn the situation around. Of course, there was also an option of threatening Noel to stop by showing that she could spread his real identity around.

However, there were only demerits from that plan. First of all, the other kingdoms who had benefited from Noelʼs rune books would immediately come to them. It might give them some boost in reputation, but once Noel used that reputation and separated himself from the Demon Banner Army, they would soon become a laughingstock again.

And this would be a different case from Laufey Ardaganʼs incident since the Demon Banner Army was the one causing this mess, not the Ardagan Family.

There were also a lot of things Noel could do if he wanted to harm the Demon Banner Army. Unless she had the confidence to kill Noel even with Dimitri protecting him, she wouldnʼt do something like that. More importantly, she wouldnʼt do anything to harm the Demon Banner Army, so this plan was immediately erased from Milfaʼs head.

So, to buy time for her, Milfa used the demons as an excuse to get away from Noel.The inaugural upload of this chapter took place via /n/ov/el/b/in.

She headed straight to the demons with her fastest speed, not allowing Noel to catch up to her.

Meanwhile, Noel saw this as another opportunity. He immediately asked Dimitri, ”We have to catch up. Help me.”

”Yes.” Dimitri hurriedly grabbed his waist and poured the Spiritual Energy into his feet as he jumped at the same speed as Milfa. But the few seconds Noel used to ask the question had created a big gap between them.

And the moment he reached the destination, Milfa was about to finish the fight.

Milfaʼs opponents were seven demons with the strongest of them being an Advanced Level Demon.

However, Milfa simply waved her hand. ”Judgment.”

”!!!” The demon raised its head. The trees were quite thick and tall, so the woods were a bit dark. The sunlight that penetrated the gap between leaves suddenly became brighter as if they were being concentrated.

And a few gaps ended up aligned with the demonʼs body. The sunlight became more concentrated to the point the light became solid and penetrated the demonʼs body.

It looked like the demon was impaled by several rods of light and died without being able to do anything.

This was the strength of the strongest captain in the Demon Banner Army, Milfa. She managed to kill an Advanced Level Demon with just a single wave of her hand. If it was Noel, he would have to use at least two or three abilities to take down one.

ʼSo… this is her strength…ʼ Noel thought. He couldnʼt help but remember the power Dimitri showed back then. He could somehow see that Milfa and Dimitri had the same level of strength currently. ʼItʼs interesting. Looking at her personality, once she becomes loyal, she will do everything to protect it.ʼ

Noel smiled. This was truly an opportunity to see her strength. Even though it was only a portion of it, he became more and more interested in her.

”!!!” Milfa sensed his gaze and turned around, waving her hand with an awkward smile. ”You have come…”

Now that Noelʼs eyes were locked on her, she couldnʼt help but remember the time when she suggested that Noel would be with her. If this continued, she might truly fall into Noelʼs traps.

ʼCan I change the plan right now? No, Shale and Clara will become suspicious. Then, should I stop him? How do I even do it? I can force him to stop, but it might cause a lot more problems in the future.ʼ

ʼCan he even respect my words and stop here?ʼ Milfa let out a long sigh and said, ”I think we both know what each other wants, right?”

Noel nodded without hesitation. He wanted her to work for the Ardagan Family, so there was no need to hide his intention.

That was why Milfa raised two fingers. ”Two years. You can do anything within two years. But I will do my best to stop you. If you still fail to make me one of your vassals, then you have to stop.”

Noel thought for a moment. It was true that he desired her, but when she was this adamant, once she was forced into the family, she might do something to cause its downfall.

The Ardagan Family would be extremely brittle for a while after he rebuilt it, so this agreement might be a good case for him.

”Two years is too long. Iʼm planning to stay here for another one and a half years. If I fail to have you swear loyalty to me, I am going to give up and leave the Demon Banner Army.” Noel stated with confidence.

”Huh? Leave the army…” Milfa suddenly became worried. This showed how much Noel desired her, not in a romantic way. Seeing such determination couldnʼt help but touch her heart a bit. She understood how serious Noel was.

Unbeknownst to her, Noel added inwardly, ʼI already plan to leave around that time anyway since itʼs the perfect time to build the new Ardagan Family. So, even without her, it doesnʼt really matter. But still, it seems that the words are working… hehe…ʼ
