System vs Rebirth

Noel started packing his luggage for the upcoming expedition. This was the first time he participated in one, but with all the scary stories he heard from the squad, he knew that the expedition would surely cause a lot of deaths.

On the one hand, he was trying to find a way to preserve everyone's lives. He was a simple man in this regard. He was a member of the Demon Relief Squad's Zero Squad, so of course, he wanted his team to survive, since they had bonded pretty well.

On the other hand, he couldn't even guarantee his own life, so how could he even help them?

After some thought, Noel decided to leave the city by using the cover of darkness. He knew that he shouldn't rely on Dimitri, but Dimitri was a former captain, so he should have some experiences or stories about an expedition like this.

"Young Master." Dimitri politely bowed to him, greeting him. He thought the young master wanted to let him know about his target since he had lost his bet. But he was wrong.

Noel looked at him with a serious expression. "Dimitri. I want to ask you a question… I'm planning to go on an expedition to explore a mysterious facility. Do you have any experience there?"

"Huh? An expedition to explore a mysterious facility? Do you mean the unknown facility outside the border?" Dimitri looked shocked, as if he couldn't believe what he'd just heard.

Noel confirmed it with a nod, making Dimitri look worried.

Dimitri gritted his teeth. "Is there a way for you to back out, Young Master?"
