System vs Rebirth

"This is the proof of completion." Jasmine handed the letter to Noel.

After taking some rest last night, Noel immediately got back to work the next day, making sure that no more demons would come to terrorize them.

Now that he had finished his job, Noel got his proof of completion.

"Are you going to stay here for the rest of the day?" Jasmine asked while glancing at the window, finding the orange color from the light.

Noel thought for a moment. Since he had promised to meet Anna three days later, he still had some time. "If you don't mind, that is."

"Of course, I don't mind." Jasmine was delightful to host Noel again. There was also a regret in her heart. "I also want to apologize to you for my interruption in your fight. If not for my shout, you would have completed your job perfectly."

"Not at all. I can understand that normal people won't easily know about the demons' behaviors. So, I have considered it before fighting them." Noel waved his hand as if telling her not to mind it anymore.

"Is that so?" Jasmine believed Noel was the only one who had this kind heart. If it was any other knights from the Demon Banner Army, they would have berated them or even taken some advantages.

"As long as you don't make the same mistake again, it's all good," added Noel.

Jasmine realized Noel was actually comforting her despite her making a mistake. She looked at Noel for a while as though she was recalling something. "That's right. Don't worry about the villagers, I'll be taking care of them. I don't know why but you seem to be a bit rushing. Do you have an appointment or something?"

"Yeah. That'll help. Thank you."
