System vs Rebirth

"Lord Earl!"

"Lord Earl!"

The people lowered their heads respectfully when they saw Noel going around the city again. However, his appearance was a mess.

His body was covered by bandages. In fact, he had to use a wheelchair to move around. His face was pale and it seemed that he was sweating a lot.

Even with that kind of condition, Noel waved his hand to the people with a big smile on his face. "I'm fine, everyone. You don't have to worry about me."

Grandell was pushing the wheelchair with a worried face. Even though he was one of the people who knew about their real plan, he was still uncomfortable to see his lord becoming this weak.

Obviously, the person who received the anger of the masses was none other than Duke Lorelei. For the rest of his life, he will be remembered as the enemy of Lounstein.

But this was also a part of the agreement. Duke Lorelei actually sacrificed his life so that Lounstein could flourish. This way, when he finally passed away in the future, his son could clear up his name while forming a good relationship with the Ardagan Family.

For the time being, the duke remained inside the mayor's mansion to avoid the people.

Cough!

Cough!

Noel suddenly coughed up blood.

"My lord!" Grandell panicked and suggested, "We should go back immediately. You are in an extremely bad state."

"This is fine. I don't want people to think that the lord of Lounstein is so weak that he can't handle a single fight. Besides, this city is going to be better. If I can push myself a bit, the city will be rebuilt much faster." Noel shook his head helplessly.

When the citizens heard those words, they couldn't help but tear up. Their lord pushed himself so much that those who were complaining about their condition felt ashamed.

They had heard that the lord was in critical condition yesterday. And yet, just a single day later, the Lord risked his life again to assure the people. He even planned to work in that condition.

"My lord! Please go back and rest. We'll definitely rebuild this city!"

"That's right. I will work myself to the bone so that the earl doesn't need to worry!"
