System vs Rebirth

Noel and the others had returned to the headquarters as well. After a hard expedition, they had to take care of the members.

Clara did her best in order to let her squads recover. She even held a ceremony for the late comrades who fell in battle.

Still, she was thankful for Noel. Due to his assistance, Noel managed to find a way to keep the casualty minimum. In fact, she had expected that at least ten people would die in the expedition.

Yet, there were only four casualties, and most of them came from lower level squads. Even the other squads recognized Noel's abilities and had no more problems with his placement in the Zero Squad.

And the other members of the Zero Squad thanked him for his help. They might have some scars from the battle, but it wasn't to the point they had to retire.

Even Stella, whose fingers were severed during the chase, was still around. Clara managed to reattach the fingers, but she might not be able to fully utilize the strength of those fingers until the muscle and cells were reattached completely by natural regeneration.

Noel was happy that he was of help, considering he treated them as a family. But there was something that startled him.

Not long after his return, he received a letter from an unknown origin. He recognized the writing.
