System vs Rebirth

Chapter 1085 Trick

*Roar!*

*Roar!*

*Roar!*

”!!!” Both Noel and Anna widened their eyes in surprise.

The demons inside the airport immediately came toward them. Meanwhile, the ones that had been hiding outside took more time to arrive.

However, both Anna and Noel knew that they were actually coming here for the purpose of surrounding them.

Anna looked around. The demons seemed to have become much more ferocious. It would become troublesome soon once more and more demons appeared.

In this situation, they would start thinking about an escape route. However, Anna was actually smiling when this situation occurred.

There was only one thought in her mind. ”This is… actually going according to Noelʼs plan.”

…

Last night.

”This is my plan.” Noel paused for a moment. ”There are two things that I want to test first before I can determine whatʼs going on in this airport.

”Firstly, I want to see if there is indeed a powerful demon in this place. If it is that powerful, it must be extremely intelligent. It could be said to be the most intelligent demon weʼve faced so far. It is hiding extremely well and not revealing their cards like the Peak Level Demons and Superior Demons.

”Secondly, Iʼd like to know about their complete strength. If the first point is proven to be correct, we might end up facing more than five superior demons in this area. I want to know their number and adjust my plan accordingly.”

Anna contemplated. ”I think itʼs a good idea, considering this airport keeps ticking me off. But how are we supposed to test it?”

”The test is going to be simple. Because they are so intelligent, the demon must have another demon that observes us and relays that information at all times.”

”Are you going to trick this demon?”

”Yes. I will spread the fire and act as if I lose control over it. If I act like I donʼt have the ability to control it or something like I need more time to extinguish my own fire, it will definitely make a move. Of course, if it doesnʼt make a move, it means that there arenʼt any demons observing our action.”

”In that case, what are we going to do next?”

”Weʼll proceed with the second plan. Itʼs to destroy one or two buildings. Since they have used this place as a nest, destroying them will make the demons think that we donʼt come here to explore the ancient ruin, but to destroy it.”

”I see. The demons, who think of this place as a nest, will do anything to protect it. Thatʼs why this is an opportunity to lure them out. But still… the humans are destroying it while the demons are protecting it, huh? It feels very contradictory.”

Noel couldnʼt help but agree. But there was no other way. ”I just hope that the first plan is good enough.”

”Then, what will happen if we manage to lure these demons out?”

Noel sighed. ”I have prepared some plans, but I think weʼll be trying to run… especially if their numbers are too high. In the worst case scenario, we might need to use our True Spirit Body. And there is also a problem with Dimitriʼs group.

”Hence, I want to lead them slightly off the north instead of the east, where Dimitri will land. After losing them, we will loop around and head to Dimitri, warning him and discussing the new plan.

”If not all demons are moving, it means that we have overestimated the demons hidden in this airport. If possible, we will eliminate them. If not, we will retreat while thinning their number.”

Anna nodded in agreement. ”Alright. Letʼs do it that way.”

”Sorry about this. Although I want to give you a chance, we donʼt know the danger this airport poses. I canʼt really risk too much or Dimitri is going to force us to return to the city.” Noel let out a long sigh.

”Donʼt worry, I understand. The situation right now is very delicate, so it canʼt really be helped. Besides, even when youʼre the one making the decision, I will continue to wonder: how did you come up with that plan and why? What is your train of thought? And other things… so that I can understand and learn more.” Anna smiled, not feeling dejected at all.

Noel blinked his eyes a few times, taken aback by her understanding. A smile appeared on Noelʼs face as he said, ”Letʼs do this, shall we?”

…

Anna shouted, ”Noel! I wonʼt be able to handle all these demons by myself. Iʼm not sure, but it sounds like there are also demons from outside this place that are coming. I wonʼt be enough to protect you.”

”Are we going to abandon this building?” Noel looked stressed as if he were doing his best to stop the fire.

However, the situation changed when two moles emerged from the ground next to Noel, ambushing him.

”Watch out!” Anna shouted while waving her finger, shooting out lightning strikes. Fortunately, the moles were only Peak Level Demons.

A single lightning strike managed to stop them, and Anna hurriedly went to Noelʼs side, cutting them down.

ƈοm When she turned around, she noticed several strong demons that had begun to appear among the horde of demons.

”What? We have to stop. Look at them! There are about ten Peak Level Demons and two Superior Demons! They are going to surround us soon!” Anna tried to stop Noel.

However, Noel acted stubborn. ”Use your transformation first! I should be able to extinguish this in three minutes.”

Anna gritted her teeth, not agreeing to that decision. However, she had to follow his order.

Lightning began to spark around her body as her blond hair turned white.

”Lightning Transformation.”

The demons didnʼt look afraid as if they had prepared for this. And that was because more and more demons emerged from all the giant buildings. Even though Anna had inspected it before, there were supposed to be no high ranking demons in those buildings. So, why?

There was only one answer to that question, a tunnel that connected all the buildings.

It was at this time that Noel fully understood the situation. Everything had gone according to plan. They were lucky that the demons had fallen into their trick.

And it was time for them to continue to the next phase.
