System vs Rebirth

A few days later.

While Anna and Noel were on their way back to the fortress to report about their matter, Earl Hawkins had sent a message to the famous Marquis Stargaze. Anna had helped them a lot, so he should send a letter to the marquis.

*Knock!*

*Knock!*

A butler knocked on the door and entered as soon as there was a response from the inside, finding the marquis sitting behind his work desk.

"Master. There is a letter from Earl Hawkins about the young miss. It's currently with pigeon, but he informs us that the actual letter will be arriving later."

"What's the message?" Marquis Stargaze calmly replied. He was a middle-aged man with short blond hair. Unlike Anna's purple eyes, his eyes were blue. His muscular body was hidden neatly underneath his clothes. Despite hearing Anna's name, the marquis didn't react exaggeratively since he had to know about the matter first.

"It seems that she has saved Earl Hawkins from an Advanced Level Demon's encirclement."

"Hoh?" Marquis Stargaze furrowed his eyebrows. "Then, it must be the mission from the Demon Banner Army. How is her bodyguard?"

"She has sent him back and the Demon Banner Army also requests us not to intervene their matters."

"Then, how about her partners?"

"She doesn't have two partners like the usual knight group. This year is a bit different and they're coming in a pair, so…" The butler paused for a moment, hesitating to say it. But since the marquis was waiting for it, he had to tell him. "Her partner is Noel Ardagan."
