System vs Rebirth

"Alright. Let's set off." Paul nodded after confirming their items.

Surprisingly, Paul had decided to change the arrangement a bit. She asked Rose and Stella to handle the first carriage while Anna and Noel took care of the second one. It seemed Paul had noticed what Stella was doing and tried to put them together to see whether it was like Stella feared or not.

While sitting next to Anna, Noel asked, "By the way, do you know anything about this valley master?"

Anna thought for a moment. "Mhm… How do I start this… Do you know about the Tower Association?"

"Yes. Although there are people like Spirit Magician, Magic Knight, or whatever, the category is mainly split into two: One wielding their tool or one wielding their Spiritual Energy. Basically, if you're utilizing your Spiritual Energy with abilities like Freezing Crystal and such, then it's the latter. But if you're focusing on your weapon or tool, then you're the former.

"If you're the former, you can go anywhere and be fine, but if you're the latter, then you have to go to the tower. They're the association researching Spiritual Energy. Most of them don't wear weapons like this, instead, they're using an item with high Spiritual Energy conductivity.

"Though, I could say that they're very influential. For example, the Muscle Enhancement Spirit Technique came from them. So, yeah… they're that kind of organization.

"As for their connection to the valley master, the Tower Association has twelve Main Tower. Basically, their system is similar to the Demon Banner Army with its fifteen squads.

"But the difference is they don't have the sole leader. If they have to make the decision, they're usually using votes to decide.

"Anyway, this valley master is one of the twelve tower masters, known as Water Lord. He was adept at controlling water to the point it looked like it had become a part of his body. So, he's kind of prestigious and strong.

"The fact that he's asking us for help means there is something behind…" Anna suddenly fell silent as if remembering something.
