System vs Rebirth

Chapter 898

"Ready?" Anna asked.

"Yes, Miss." The soldiers shouted in unison.

"Amazing, you've disciplined them in two days." Howard chuckled.

Anna had truly worked hard in the past two days. On the first day, she challenged them and measured their abilities. On the second day, she practiced together with them, but with much higher intensity than the rest. Not wanting to lose, the soldiers tried to copy her, only to fail miserably.

Even then, they realized that Anna was not a simple young lady; she was also a warrior. At the very least, she had earned enough respect to lead them.

"How about you? Your expression has mellowed a bit." Anna smiled, recalling how Howard was so adamant about not acknowledging her previously.

"I still hold onto my opinion though."

"It will change sooner or later." Anna pointed at the river. "Then, we'll be over there."

"Yes. The enemies might be stronger over there since it's a bit farther from the city. But you should be fine since the average ability of your group is higher than this one. If needed, I would stop the exploration and help you."

"If needed, that is." Anna nodded and crossed the bridge together with the rest of the group. The river was calm, but the flow rate was a bit high. If they fell into the river, they would be dragged until they could reach the side. Even then, it would be a challenge to go up.

Anna carefully scanned the entire area, wondering if there was something special.

'I don't feel any dangerous existences. There are several demons not far from here, but the soldiers wouldn't have any problems in dealing with them.' Anna observed the area and noticed that Howard had begun to march.

"Miss, what should we do?" Grandel asked.

Anna turned to him, finding another person next to him. This person was the other Spirit Master who was tasked to follow her. "Grandel and Aerton will divide the group into two and move side by side. Grandel will take the left, and Aerton will take the right. I'll remain in the center."

"You're not going to fight, Miss?" Grandel asked, confused. Anna was so strong, so he thought Anna would lead the group at the front.

"I have earned their respect, but you two are more trusted by them. So, I will leave the commands to both of you. This is also an opportunity to measure everyone's individual strengths. I'll support all of you first before moving to the front."
