System vs Rebirth

Noel scanned his surroundings with both his senses and Spiritual Energy, ensuring that no one was following him. Since he had piqued the interest of the Great Protector, he thought there would be people following him.

Fortunately, after scanning a few times and in a few different places, he didn't notice any presence around him.

With that thought in mind, Noel left the city to discuss what they would need to do with Dimitri.

After explaining about the Great Protector Legolaz as well as the underground ruin, Noel asked, "What do you think, Dimitri?"

Dimitri looked down, pondering the situation. "I don't think there is a problem. However, the fact that there is a Superior Demon… even if it's only a probability, it has increased the level of the threat that you're going to face. If you still want to visit this ruin, then you have to prepare for yourself to be known by a lot of people."

"Now that I think about it… it's already weird enough for a Spirit Master to clash with a Spirit Grandmaster. If I show that I can fight against the Superior Demon, I'll certainly become famous. Not that I like to brag, but…" Noel let out a sigh.

"Yes. Because there are a lot of people coming from different places, they will definitely spread that news. In other words, there is a chance that our enemies can easily find our location… if they haven't found it already." Dimitri nodded in agreement.

"There is a chance that I can't visit their capital to find other interesting people. Well, I can still do it, but I'll be fighting with time. Once the news reaches their side, I'm afraid that they are going after me, either by eliminating me or cooperating with me. Either way, it'll be bad news."

"Indeed. Since the Supreme Devil Organization is most likely chasing us even to this kingdom, they will hear about it as well. So, your identity as Iadre will become useless because the royal family will hear about your true identity."

"Logically speaking, the Supreme Devil Organization should have seen through my disguise. And there's a possibility that the Royal Family has known about it, but they haven't tried to kill me or anything." Noel felt like the problem escalated once the possibility was opened.

"I don't think they have yet to figure out your true identity. It seems that the Supreme Devil Organization is planning to monopolize you for themselves. But once the rumor about you spreads from this kingdom, everyone will know about it." Dimitri explained, reminding him about Anna's statement. "She also said that no one mentioned your name yet."

"If that's the case, should I change my plan? After this, instead of visiting the capital, I should go straight to the Greenwood Kingdom myself?"

"With your grandfather's protection, there is no doubt that you will be fine. However, your existence will be recognized by the Greenwood Kingdom's royal family. If you stay for too long, you might get dragged into the throne war."

"I understand. If I want to visit my grandfather, then it'll be only for two or three weeks. So, in total, we're probably going around the two kingdoms in just two months before returning to the Muivell Kingdom."
