System vs Rebirth

"Are you done?" Raincart asked while his eyes were observing Noel from his appearance to the fluctuation of his energy.

"Yes. I have officially become a Spirit Grandmaster, Grandfather." Noel reported while raising both hands. On his right hand flared up the Undying Fire and on his left hand formed an ice crystal.

It looked simple for normal people, but Raincart could clearly see the difference. Noel could actually release his element with such ease. In fact, he used the Spiritual Energy around his body to form it instead of the one within him. This was the characteristic that symbolized the Spirit Grandmaster's strength.

Once Noel reached this stage, he believed that he could kill those Spirit Grandmasters and Spirit Masters who chased after him in just a few rounds. Although there were still some gaps between him and Qiel, he wouldn't be so powerless after this.

"Great. Do you need more time to consolidate your power?"

"Aside from getting a hang of it, I think I can continue to the next part." Noel shook his head.

"Is that so? You're going to absorb the ice element item, right?"

"Indeed." Noel nodded. The ice element was the one that he needed to form a Spirit Link with Ardagan after all.

"Alright then. I will continue watching over you." Raincart nodded before pointing at the side. "But before that, you should be pretty hungry. I'll ask the soldiers to cook you something."

"Yes."

While Raincart asked the soldiers, Noel continued with his meditation. But this time, he tried to control his new power, trying to grow accustomed to the change.

This was the first time he felt so refreshed when controlling his element. It was as if there was nothing that clogged up within his body.

With a single wave of his right hand, Spiritual Energy absorbed his fire energy and fused with it, allowing a fire to light up around his arm.

After moving around for ten minutes, Noel returned to eat with his grandfather. The latter asked a few things because he was worried about him, but after confirming that everything was fine, Raincart dropped the topic.

Although Noel wanted to continue, Raincart suggested he should sleep and condition his body for what was going to come next.

Since he was more experienced as a Spirit Grandmaster than him, Noel agreed.

Before sleeping, there was a peculiar thought entering his mind.

"Now that I think about it, Anna said that we were at the peak of Spirit Grandmaster and was about to become a Spirit Transcendence… Back then, our strength was so high that we could even rival the Spirit Transcendence. Yet, why did I actually get myself killed?"
