System vs Rebirth

Noel opened the door and came out of the room together with Anna, finding Rose and the others had just come back.

"Welcome back." Noel smiled.

"There is nothing wrong around the lake. Rose and Zion have scouted around the area and haven't found anyone near the lake. I have also checked the lake's condition and it seems the poison has mixed completely. Although the running water is diluting it, it won't be able to clear the poison at least for another few months. So, it's better if we drain it." Stella explained.

"Oh, that's good. If that's the case, we can continue our work as scheduled." Noel nodded.

"Yeah…" Stella suddenly noticed Anna coming out of the room while stroking her stomach. "Oh, wow. Your stomach is sticking out… Don't tell me, you are pregnant Anna?"

"Preg-what?!" Anna widened her eyes in shock. "I was stuffed. I ate too much because of Noel."

"I was just joking. There's no need for you to get that flustered." Stella chuckled.

Anna shook her head helplessly, trying to calm her heart down. "Supposed I'm pregnant, who's the dad? Noel, you want to take responsibility?"

"Why am I getting dragged into the rivalry between you two?" Noel looked at both of them and moved away. Instead of talking to Stella, he moved to Rose and asked her, "Alright. Let's ignore these two idiots for now. I have to talk to you regarding tomorrow's project."

"Sure. Let's ignore these two." Rose nodded and walked together with Noel.
