System vs Rebirth

"Sir Damian… Please teach me how to get stronger."

Damian's poker face remained unchanged as though he had expected something like this.

"It seems that you have learned your lesson this time." Damian took a seat while saying, "I don't mind teaching you though. However, the price is kinda steep. After all, my fighting ability is closely related to the Greenwood Kingdom. I can't really give you any secret of the Greenwood Kingdom without getting anything, you know."

Noel nodded with a serious expression.

"Of course. I'm prepared to pay the price. So, you can tell me what you want."

Damian thought for a moment. On the one hand, he could ask for an exorbitant price from Noel. They had just failed not long ago, so if he blackmailed Noel with that failure, he could easily increase the price.

However, if he did it, Noel would be skeptical of having a business with him. He might be able to gain a good benefit in the short term, but the total benefit he would get in the long run would surely be less than the original expectation.

On the other hand, becoming too good of a man would make him suspicious as well. So, he had to set a fair price with the current condition. It was something he liked as well, considering he could get more benefits from Noel.

After a few minutes, Damian raised one finger. "I only need one thing."
