System vs Rebirth

"!!!" Noel widened his eyes in shock, feeling the change of atmosphere again. Instead of the freshness of the spring, he suddenly felt a chill all over his body.

The winter was different from any winter he had faced in his life. This winter froze not only his body but also his heart.

His mind couldn't help but ask, 'Where am I? Why is no one here for me? Why do I have to endure this alone?'

Noel was turning around as if trying to find a person. But before he stepped back as if he was hesitating on his path, he actually stopped while sucking a cold breath.

"…" Noel had never taken a 'step back' in his life. No matter what had happened to him, he still tried to move forward as if he was trying to do his best to improve.

Even when his parents were executed, he still tried to move forward by getting stronger to avenge them.

So, if he took a step back here, everything would be over. After all, once he did it, there would be second and third times.

Noel gritted his teeth, resisting the will that prevented him from taking a step forward. His face became a bit pale, but it didn't mean much for him and his determination.

He managed to turn around and step forward, completing the seventh and eighth steps.

Normally, the last few steps would be the hardest. However, it seemed that fate favored him.

The moment he was about to take the ninth step, he suddenly felt people's voices echoing in his ears.

"!!!" Noel obviously knew these voices. It came from the people he held dear.
