System vs Rebirth

'Free' in his words meant unlimited potential. If the Undying Fire was free, it meant the fire could take shape into anything.

Of course, this kind of thought would surely lead the Undying Fire to be omnipotent. However, there was a hidden problem.

If he chose this path, it would mean the Fire could become heavy, hard, or even empty. It was already in the realm of impossibility. Anyone would surely think he was insane. There might be some ambitious and positive people that thought it was possible, but Noel was different. He might be ambitious, but he was still looking at the world realistically.

That was why the second question was like a chain that dragged his ambition to the ground, making it look reachable.

'How do I want this ability to help me? The answer is obvious. Undying Fire is a fire that is far stronger than any other flame I have seen so far. So, I want it to stay that way. I want this fire to burn everything I wish to burn.'

With this statement, Noel abandoned the possibility of having his Undying Fire turn into something else.

He had already answered the third question that asked him how to achieve it. The answer was obvious as soon as he finished answering the first two questions. He needed to improve his control over Spiritual Energy so that he could change the shape of his flame without the need of Spirit Abilities.

Last but not least, the fourth question.

'Can I proceed in mastering the ability right now?' Noel assessed his current situation. 'I already know the method and I have settled all the immediate problems, giving me some time to practice. I should be able to start practicing this technique.'

'But mastering this power will require a huge amount of effort and time. I have to be diligent and never give up if I want to succeed. That's why the fourth question is actually asking me whether I have the resolve and determination to master my ability or not.'
