System vs Rebirth

Noel was riding a horse straight to his next destination. He was accompanied by Rose this time.

He glanced to the side, taking a peek at Rose's expression. She was confused when he announced the first destination.

Early in the morning, they had just finished washing their bodies.

Rose came to him and asked, "By the way, where are we going first?"

They had five destinations, so Rose had made some plans regarding the course to make the trip as effective as possible.

But to her surprise, Noel gave her a different plan.

"I have a plan in mind. Though, I don't know if you'll agree or not." Noel smirked.

"Huh?" Rose was confused. She usually managed to comprehend Noel's plan, so the one in her head should be similar to what Noel had in mind. So, she was the first one to reveal the itinerary.

"We are going to the Lelelei Fort, Silica Valley, Demon Banner Army's Headquarters, my village, then Styxcanva, right?" Rose asked for confirmation.

"No." Noel shook his head calmly, correcting her. "We're going to Silica Valley, your village, Demon Banner Army's Headquarters, Styxcanva, and Lelelei Fort."

"Huh?" Rose was perplexed. There were a few reasons why she couldn't approve Noel's plan. "Wait a minute. The Styxcanva and Lelelei Fort are supposed to have the furthest distance among our destinations, so why do you want to visit them both in succession? It'll take a lot of time just to travel between them. I don't understand."

"Yes. You haven't understood the situation, Rose." Noel sighed. Rose had yet to understand how far the Third Prince could extend his hand.

Now that Dimitri was on another mission, they didn't have many options left. One wrong move could make the Third Prince get involved.

When that happened, Noel feared that they couldn't move according to their plan anymore.
