System vs Rebirth

Demon Hunting Squad.

Captain Igor was sitting in the middle of his base as his subordinates were questioning his decision.

"Sir. Is it alright for him to use our Demon Hunting Squad like this?"

Igor chuckled. "Have you forgotten that I owe him something? During that little fight?"

Igor reminded them about the little fight they had to test Noel's strength. If the Demon Hunting Squad won, Noel would join the Demon Hunting Squad. But Noel ended up winning, and Igor owed him a favor.

"In fact, I should have thanked him for using that favor. Since I'm going to pass my mantle to someone else soon, it doesn't mean anything to have another captain in between. By allowing him to take my position as the Captain of the Demon Hunting Squad, he can earn a better noble position."

"But what about us? If our squad…"

Before they finished, Igor added, "Of course. There is also a benefit as well. It's like promoting our Demon Hunting Squad. In the end, we're the ones who can say that Noel was once a captain of the Demon Hunting Squad."

"But…"

The people were worried. Igor was the one to allow this to happen. Of course, he could use it as a promotion, but Captain Igor would be recognized as a pushover, considering he just let someone be a captain just for the sake of becoming a noble.

Even if the Demon Hunting Squad would become famous, Igor's name would be filled with infamy. Igor had been helping them from the beginning, so they didn't want to see that happening.

Unfortunately for them, Igor had made a decision. He said with a sad smile, "If my sacrifice can make the Demon Hunting Squad strong again, I don't mind. I have always felt useless after losing this arm of mine, so I'm just glad that I can still use myself to support the squad. I hope that you all can make the squad stronger than ever… and make me proud."
