System vs Rebirth

Suddenly, a melody started to echo in his ears.

"Hmm?" Noel furrowed his eyebrows, thinking this was another part of the hallucination. He became extremely wary of this change, so he kept burning the toxin inside his mind whether it was there or not. He just assumed that everything was either an illusion or a hallucination. This way, he could keep his mind clear.

However, the moment he stepped onto the third floor, he suddenly felt pressure from above him.

"!!!" Noel widened his eyes in shock as he exerted a bit of his strength, trying to withstand this pressure.

He glanced to the side and actually found a person sitting on the other side of the corridor.

And this person was hidden behind a curtain, but due to the light illuminating the person, he could see the shadow of that person, including the harp that she was playing.

Suddenly, this person ticked the string a bit stronger, causing a little jump in the melody. At the same time, the pressure suddenly felt much heavier.

"Kh…" Noel gritted his teeth. He had found the cause.

It turned out this person was the one controlling this pressure.

"It seems that I'm not accepted here." Noel gritted his teeth while releasing his Spiritual Energy. He glared at the person on the opposite side as if trying to tell her that he was going to use all his strength to attack her.

However, he soon heard her voice, telling him, 'You are not invited here because you are not accompanied by a woman from the brothel, Sir. I am here simply to maintain the rule of this floor.
