System vs Rebirth

Anna gritted her teeth and jumped to the side, gaining some distance from the earthworm to think.

Noel, on the other hand, was getting suppressed by the Peak Level Demons. The Peak Level Demons didn't even bother to kill him. They fought conservatively as if they were trying to buy time for the rest to come without getting injured.

"Noel!" Anna shouted his name, knowing what was going to happen from now on.

"I know." Noel nodded with a serious expression while repelling the enemy's attacks.

Anna was clenching her weapon slightly. Despite facing this type of situation, she still hadn't released her full power.

After all, she was still abiding by the promise that she made with Noel a moment ago.

…

An hour ago.

"Eh? What do you mean by that? Are you saying I can't use my True Spirit Body? But this is…" Anna gasped.

Noel's expression was serious. He was still weighing the probability of her injury as well as the mission. On the one hand, he didn't want her to use the True Spirit Body because of her injury. On the other hand, he knew that their options were limited.

In fact, the moment Noel heard that Anna's body was still hurting the whole time, he couldn't help but wonder how much Anna had endured.

She didn't show it the whole time, so he never noticed it.

It felt like he was being defeated by Anna before the battle even began. But that was the exact reason why Noel had to take this matter seriously.

"That's right. We don't need your True Spirit Body. Think about this." Noel raised one finger. "Old Ru sent us here because he considers that we can clear the whole nest without his help, right?"

"That's true. But there should be a few conditions such as pushing ourselves to the limit. In fact, he should have taken my True Spirit Body into calculations."

"No. Old Ru is only taking the new ability into his consideration. In fact, he is trying to not let you use your True Spirit Body. If not, he wouldn't give us this thing." Noel took the talisman Old Ru gave them.
