System vs Rebirth

"Like I said, you can't. You have to think about our supplies first. If we go help them, we will be left with only two days of supplies. Unless we can procure more during those two days, it will hinder our group's movement!" Margaretha complained while slamming the table.

"There are still two days, right? Isn't that fine? It's not like we need that much since it's easier to hunt!" Alexander shrugged.

"Have you forgotten where there is no demon for a whole seven days? If not for me rationing the supply, it would be bad for the group!"

"You're always thinking too hard." Alexander harrumphed.

"You are the one who should think first before taking action!"

Their bickering alerted the entire group as more and more people gathered just to watch them.

"What's wrong? Are they arguing again?" A middle-aged man asked Ray, who was also one of the spectators.

"Yeah." Ray nodded with a sigh.

"What's going on today?"

"Brother Alex wants to send some supplies to the main group due to the food shortage on the front. But our current supply is limited, so it might cause some trouble." Ray explained.

"Those Lenfeth guys again? As expected of Sam, he is doing it again. Well, I have been helped through that kindness of his too, so I guess I'm supporting him this time."

"What Sam?! It's Simeon, you freaking old man!" Alex suddenly stopped and berated the middle-aged man.

"He heard us?" The middle-aged man was surprised before chuckling. In the end, he shouted back, "Instead of thinking about the supply, why don't you two get a room first and deal with the problem later?!"

"What? Do you think I want to marry this bossy and spoiled woman? Who actually gave her this position?!" Alex looked very annoyed.

"What did you say? Do you think you are so great? You are just someone who thinks with your muscles, not your brain! All the nutrients you get from the food goes to your muscles. Why don't you try to develop your brain a little bit?!" She also didn't want to lose, and the two ended up glaring at each other.

All of them only rolled their eyes as the answers to all those questions were actually much simpler.

The one who gave her the position was Alexander. Meanwhile, Margaretha also knew that Alex not only had the strength but also great leadership that made people want to follow him.

Ray could only shake his head helplessly. It had been another three months after that night. His sister had indeed changed after that conversation.

She was more reliant on Alex and even helped him much more. She took care of all the logistics, which everyone had a hard time doing and became the brain of the group. In fact, everyone could see her admiration for Alex along with her desire to improve her strength to his level.

It was just the two kept bickering over all small things. And whenever that happened, they would always do the same thing.
