System vs Rebirth

"I see…" Noel closed his eyes for a moment, thinking about the report. "What do you think about my grandfather, Dimitri? I believe you haven't seen him when you are still with my parents…"

"Yes." Dimitri nodded with a serious expression. He pondered first before giving his opinion. "With all due respect, I believe that your grandfather is extremely powerful. Even after getting some time to ponder, I don't think I have the ability to defeat him."

"Hoh? Interesting." Noel narrowed his eyes while Rose gasped. She truly couldn't comprehend this family.

There was also Noel's ancestor and his relationship with the Greenwood Kingdom's royal family.

Yet, despite all this, Noel's parents still decided to get executed. Noel hadn't told her about his uncle, who was once a part of the Demon Banner Army.

"And if we're talking about the former Royal Spirit Magician, he was the king's tutor…" Rose shook her head helplessly, realizing the true identity of Noel's grandfather. At the same time, she could understand why his grandfather couldn't help him openly despite having all that power.
