In a tavern, Noel was sitting down with a plate of food. He had reached this place three days earlier than planned, so he had to wait.

They had agreed to meet in a plaza when the sun was on top of their head, so he still had some time.

He looked down while contemplating, 'We're about to go to the Sword Saint Tomb. I don't know what awaits us there, but it's clear that the Sword Saint and my ancestor were related.

'I read in a book that the Sword Saint was my ancestor's best friend. My ancestor might be the greatest spirit user in his time, but the Sword Saint was truly a peerless expert with a sword. If my ancestor didn't use everything, he would have lost against the Sword Saint.

'Since both of them were best friend, I should be able to take advantage of this, right?' Noel tapped the table a few times, thinking deeply. 'That's right. I can simply tell him that I'm the last Ardagan and Anna is the culprit for my family execution. The Sword Saint's Spirit is related to soul, so he must have a way to retain his soul.'

Right after, Noel thought that way, fate worked magically. A feminine's voice echoed in his ears as she sat down in the empty seat next to him.

"Hello, gentleman. Do you mind if I share a seat with you?"

"No…" Noel wanted to refuse but soon noticed the voice sounded familiar and turned around, finding Anna sitting down next to him. "Anna, huh."

"Why do you sound so disappointed?" Anna pouted.

"Don't you think you know why?" Noel shrugged.

Anna let out a long sigh. Whenever Noel brought this up, she truly couldn't say anything. Hence, she decided to change the topic. "So, when are we going to go to the ruin?"
