System vs Rebirth

"Hahaha!" Noel laughed in the middle of the forest. Of course, he wasn't insane.

There was a demon in front of him. The demon had four feet, but half the size of the demon beast he first fought.

That laugh was simply to grab this demon's attention. Unlike the previous demon beast, this demon didn't have an extraordinary fur that could repel his attack, so Noel tried to take advantage of this situation first to see whether he could kill the demon without using a trap or not.

The moment the demon pounced on him, Noel took a step back, trying to match his movement so that the demon's movement would become a bit slower in his eyes.

After that, he raised his sword, pointing it at the demon so that it would be impaled by its own momentum.

Surprisingly, this demon waved its claws to the side, causing a small gale in the air. That slight push allowed the demon to push its body a little bit, resulting in the demon barely avoiding the sword.

'What? It can do that? The demon is too smart or it might be their instinct?' Noel gritted his teeth. Although he could graze the demon's body, it was too shallow to even do anything.

Even the blood dripping from its stomach wasn't that much, so it would be a long time before the demon's movement started to become sluggish.

'Even though the demon could avoid it, it's clear that humans are still smarter than demons. I should use everything as my weapon to defeat this demon.' Noel thought, assuring himself that he could win this battle. At the very least, fighting this demon seemed to be easier than the demon tree they first encountered.

Without any thought about using the traps, Noel kicked the demon that almost landed on the ground.
