System vs Rebirth

A burning noise echoed in the garden. The fire seemed to be burning the grass, but surprisingly, it didn't spread like a normal fire.

The fire only moved toward a specific area and drew a pattern on the ground.

After the last crisp sound vanished, the guy, who was sitting in the middle of the pattern, opened his eyes.

He was none other than Noel. In the past three days, Noel had been adjusting the characteristics of his flame so that he could define it with precision. It was surprisingly harder than he thought, but Noel could see that the missing part he had felt before was getting filled up.

"As much as I want to continue, I don't think I can focus any further. I have to consider a few other things as well, so let's continue tomorrow." Noel took a glance at the sun's position.

Fortunately, there were still two hours before dusk, so he stood up and gave a nod to the soldiers who had been protecting him the whole time.

After seeing Noel leave the area, the soldiers made sure that there was no more fire before dispersing.

"It's been a while since Anna has become an Arbiter. She should have made some foundation in her new post.

"As for me, I think I still need a few more days to finalize the concept of my flame. After that, I can begin my breakthrough to the Spirit Grandmaster, which shouldn't take more than three days.

"I have to teach Tristan as well. Wait, there is also a Spirit Link and those awakening pills. If I have to sum everything up, I might need another two weeks before completing everything. And another week to help Grandfather. After that, I will return to the Muivell Kingdom and become a noble."

Noel nodded in satisfaction.

Since he had finished his training earlier than he expected, he wondered what he should do.

"Tristan should be in his room reviewing his works. Should I go to Grandfather?" Noel muttered while walking down the garden.

On the way, he heard an energetic voice from the side.

"Oh! Is this it?"

As those words resounded, a fluctuation of Spiritual Energy occurred. This fluctuation was something Noel was familiar with.

'Rune?' Noel raised his eyebrows and turned around. He didn't expect that someone from the Ezenholm Family had practiced a rune.

Still, the Ezenholm Family was famous for producing an exceptional Spirit Magician. And with the fact that the author of the rune book was related to the Ezenholm Family, it was obvious that they would ask the people from the house to learn runes.
