System vs Rebirth

"Don't thank us yet?" Anna muttered in a low voice. She couldn't help but notice the word 'us' from Noel's mouth. It was clear that Noel was the biggest contribution of this battle. In fact, he single-handedly killed the demon leader. Yet, Noel considered her as well and never took the credit for himself.

This was something not everyone could do. Even she wondered what she would do when she was in his position. She would think that she deserved it because she had done it by herself.

'Looking at this, Noel should have a way to defeat the Ancient Demon Tree. But I used the opportunity to take something away from him. If I didn't help him, he would have defeated the tree alone and got more rewards.

'Because I reincarnated, I could utilize the memory of my past life to get more chances and become even stronger than my past self. Yet, I never thought about this…' Her heart thumped as she looked at Noel. 'What if I take someone's chance and as a result, they die because of me? Have I even considered the effect when I take someone's chance? They're strangers for sure, but… looking at Noel who can give me the credit without hesitation…'

She felt being ashamed. Unlike Noel's system that granted him something from somewhere else, Anna took something from others by using their chance. Before, she thought about giving something else to Noel from her own opportunity, but there were some chances that she took from others. She just never considered her actions because she didn't know them personally.

'For example, what if I got the artifact that someone should have in the future to save the people in needs? But because I took it, that someone couldn't save those people and die?'

Anna looked down, wondering if her choice was alright. She could be selfish too, but she hesitated after seeing Noel.
