System vs Rebirth

Noel was heading straight to the mushroom demon's direction while maintaining a close look to his surrounding. The mushroom demon had the ability to create another Advanced Level Demon, so if he wasn't careful, he might be killed without a chance to fight back.

'As expected, there are more and more information that I can dig up from Anna. Even when I thought she didn't have that much information, she could still give me more than I could imagine. How much knowledge does she have? She is still at my age, but her power, her knowledge, and her actions are more than mine.

'In fact, I wonder if she's actually an old woman disguised as a young girl.' Noel narrowed his eyes. All Anna had was impossible to have by a 15 years old girl, even if she was an extraordinary genius. It felt like she had a secret even more extraordinary than one could think.

'Hmm? I have known about the spirit ranks… Looking at this, it seems that Anna has a Humanoid Rank Spirit, a level above Heisk, my Ice Spirit. Can they provide knowledge like this?' Noel had a question in his mind, but it was impossible to ask now.

It seemed that after being cornered, the mushroom demon approached everything head-on.

Noel stopped abruptly when he felt a demon presence within his range.

"One, no two demons." Noel squinted his eyes and tried to find the demon in his range. Unfortunately, he could only see one demon with the other being hidden behind a tree.

The demon in front of him was a wolf.

'Is this place a wolf habitat?' Noel felt something was wrong. A wolf wasn't supposed to come here, yet he could find an Advanced Level Demon. It was clear that it was a normal wolf transformed into an Advanced Level Demon. 'Something doesn't match up. How does a wolf appear here?'

"Aoooo!" Noel had so many questions in his mind, but the wolf didn't let him. The wolf demon howled and started rushing toward him.

"So fast?" He was stunned, never expecting that the wolf could cover forty meters in just three seconds.
