System vs Rebirth

"Aaahhhh!" Anna let out a seductive moan that echoed inside the room.

"…" Noel's eyebrows were twitching. He just coated the needle with the mixture and poked her body, but she actually let out a sound that could be easily misunderstood. "What are you doing?"

"Sorry, I didn't expect it." Anna smirked. It seemed that she was playing with him.

"I'm going to tell you this, but if you're going to mess around again, I'm going to open the window and toss you outside." Noel's expression looked annoyed.

"Fine." Anna pouted. When Noel made this face, she knew that he would do it without hesitation.

While she did tease her, she wanted to soften Noel's expression. This was the first time he painted the runes on the body, so it was obvious that he was nervous.

Although it didn't impact him a lot, since Noel's expression had looked a bit better, she chose to remain silent.

Unbeknownst to them, Dimitri was standing outside to protect them. But when he heard Anna's voice, he couldn't help but look at the door with a confused expression, thinking, 'Did they do something else? Does that mean we'll be expecting a successor soon? Now that I think about it, the former Master and Mistress should come out since they should want to hold their grandchild, right? What a good job, Master… I should begin calling her Mistress as well.'

While Dimitri was distracted by the thoughts, Noel continued with his work.

He poked Anna's skin with a needle and poured his Spiritual Energy to attach it to the veins underneath the skin. These veins were linked with the Spirit Seal, which would maintain the rune's existence.

He carefully poked the next spot not far from the first spot and began linking them together like a circuit.

This process took a while because he had to assimilate the two spots with his Spiritual Energy before linking it to the Spirit Veins.

After that, he continued to the third, fourth, and other spots.

Because of the need for accuracy, Noel had to split a single rune into at least a hundred points. So, a single rune alone required at least two hours to complete.

Noel stretched the rune from her Spirit Seal that was located on her waist to her stomach.
