System vs Rebirth

"So, what do you think?" Old Ru asked.

"I think I understand something." Noel nodded with a serious expression.

"That's good then. The reason why I invited you so openly like this is because of the same concept." Old Ru glanced to the side as though he was looking at his grandson. "He has been with me since he was a baby. I have been thinking about letting him integrate back into the society.

"Unfortunately, his identity is somewhat special." Old Ru let out a long sigh. "If I let him go back to the same kingdom, he will end up being targeted. So, I'm thinking about taking advantage of you so that he is a bit more sociable. I can't protect him the entire time, so I have to prepare him to the best of my ability."

Noel frowned and asked, "Are you asking us to only converse with him? Or do you plan to let him enter the human kingdoms?"

"…" Damian's expression became serious. As someone from the military, knowing that there was a potential spy entering the kingdom was dangerous, but Old Ru added, "Of course, the former. As for the latter, I won't convince him or something. But if he ends up following you, then I don't really mind. Just take care of him for me."

Noel fell silent for a moment. On the one hand, he had hinted that he knew a possibility that Old Ru was pushing his grandson to follow them. After all, he was supposed to be the Sword Saint's disciple. On the other hand, he didn't want to openly say that he wanted his grandson.

Old Ru smiled, "In any case, you have understood my intention. I can see that the two of you are still Spirit Masters. Hence, I will train both of you. As for the Spirit Grandmasters, I don't mind if you're observing the training and benefiting from it, but I won't go all the way to teach you. You should understand why I don't plan to teach Spirit Grandmasters, right?"

Nicole, Dimitri, and Damian nodded their heads in unison. Still, watching the training that a Spirit Transcendence Level Expert gave should be beneficial even for them. In addition, Old Ru should be stronger than their Spirit Transcendence Level Experts.
