System vs Rebirth

"From what I can see, it's true that the Demon Hunting Squad is strong. And I can see why they have several problems in taking on a mission, especially about being not flexible." Noel nodded in understanding. He still remembered how Richard and the others were glaring at them and provoking them right after they met.

So, it was clear that the squad couldn't function properly. Still, it didn't change the fact that the Demon Hunting Squad's strength was among the top.

"Yeah. It seems the commander has a good relationship with Igor. After all, Hendry Igor is a former noble from another kingdom. He travels here and becomes a knight. The commander knows how to utilize Igor and the latter doesn't hesitate to accomplish the task." Rose explained a bit more about their story.

Noel was curious, but he felt there was one more thing that mattered in their current situation.

"Can we even convince him regarding the matter of the Supreme Devil Organization?" Noel asked.

"I am not very sure." Rose shook her head. "Though, Igor is a rather special captain. I think it should be fine."

Noel scratched the back of his head, not knowing what to say about that remark. Even Rose didn't know how to convince him, so Noel wondered whether their trip here was futile or not.

In the end, the group decided to go to their respective room to get some rest after working so hard in the last couple of days.

When Noel was about to relax on the bed, someone suddenly knocked on his door.

"You there?"

It was Jonathan's voice. Noel didn't know why Jonathan came to visit him, but since he was the one to explain the entire problem, Jonathan might want to discuss this matter.

Hence, Noel hurriedly opened the door for him, only to find Jonathan being alone. There were no Ben or Paul accompanying him.
