System vs Rebirth

He never expected that the children wanted to repay him this much, even after learning about Septa.

What he didn't know was that the children had understood the rumors. No, Erica was the one to figure out the person in the rumor as the smartest kid in the group. She told them that Noel had been protecting her this whole time, making the children feel moved.

Even though he wasn't with them anymore, their 'Big Brother Noel' was still protecting them.

Their pure hearts truly wanted to repay Noel for everything because they knew that Noel would still take care of them until they truly grew up.

Septa seemed to be more and more interested in them as he asked again, "So, who is this man that you want to repay?"

"He is big br—" The children seemed to want to show Noel's kindness in front of everyone, but Erica hurriedly shut them up with a glare. If they gave away the name, the knight who seemed to be superior than Noel might make it difficult for him. She didn't want to repay Noel with trouble.

Erica shook her head and said, "I believe we can't tell you that."

"You are truly a smart kid. You think I'll make trouble to him after knowing his name. I heard that you're from the slum… so, I'm quite surprised to see such a smart kid like you. Alright, you don't have to tell me! How about this? I will guide you a bit after your performances and you don't have to enter the Demon Banner Army."

Erica squinted her eyes, feeling suspicious. She looked at Septa and said, "Something that is too good to be true shouldn't be trusted."

"As expected!" Septa was truly satisfied with Erica's intelligence. So, he added, "Then, I can guide you in front of these people. Fixing some mistakes here and there. I'm sure that I can't do anything to you that way!"
