System vs Rebirth

The next morning.

"I think you are wrong on this part." Tristan pointed at the rune Livia drew before correcting his words right after. "Ah, I apologize. There is nothing wrong."

Livia couldn't help but furrow her eyebrows. When she checked the rune and confirmed it with the book Noel gave them, it was clear that she had made some mistakes.

So, Tristan's action wasn't wrong. That was why Tristan's action piqued Livia's interest as there were several reasons for it.

Livia observed Tristan's face, who looked extremely uncomfortable. She asked, "Tristan. You don't need to answer this, but are you still considering yourself a slave? Or is it because you are uncomfortable that I'm a princess?"

Tristan looked away, not daring to answer that question. But there was a glimpse of his lack of confidence, which was enough for Livia to understand what was happening to him.

"I see. So, you're still considering yourself as a slave." Livia sighed. "I guess everything that has been ingrained into you is hard to change. Even Sandra is still like this. However, I'm going to tell you this. Owning a slave in the Muivell Kingdom is forbidden in this kingdom. Are you trying to get your teacher in trouble?"

"That's…" Tristan looked down. If Tristan continued considering himself as a slave, that meant the enemies could use it as a reason to strip Noel's power. And Noel had told them from the start that they were not their slaves. Tristan was the student of Noel Ardagan and Sandra was the maid of the Ardagan Family. "I'm sorry."

"It's not something you need to be sorry about. However, you have to let go of the past and live as a proud member of the Ardagan Family. If you can't do that, then everything he has done will be useless. Of course, you don't have to change right away. Just make sure you know about this and keep improving until you overcome all your troubles."

"Yes, I know." Tristan nodded with a serious expression before hearing a clicking sound echoing from the garden. The two of them became curious since they had never heard anything like this in the past few days.

When they checked on it, they saw Noel and Anna sparring.

They hadn't used their ability or Spiritual Energy. It was just pure swordsmanship.

However, everything soon changed when Anna said, "I think that's enough. Let's step up our game for a bit and test the rune."

"Indeed." Noel sheathed his sword and started raising his stance. On both hands appeared a different rune.

"That's the Rune Blast?" Livia frowned, observing the rune on his right hand.

"If I'm not mistaken, the other rune is a Rune Strike. It's not as powerful as the Rune Blast, but its purpose is to penetrate the enemy's defense."

Anna shouted, "Let's go!"

"I'm coming." Noel nodded and leaped forth. He punched forward with the Rune Blast.

Seeing the Rune Blast was about to be activated, Anna covered her body with Spiritual Energy before waving her sword downward.
