System vs Rebirth

The day of Noel's departure, the citizens couldn't help but put down their works and assembled on the main road.

They had heard about Noel returning to the main city. On the one hand, they felt sad that they couldn't see their lord anymore. On the other hand, it was reassuring since the main city should take care of Noel better than this city.

Noel had done so much for this city, so they wanted to see them off.

According to the agreement, Noel left behind the automatic carriage in this city since the city still needed it to transport materials from one place to another.

And he also promised Layla that he would build a special carriage for her, which wasn't that urgent.

Hence, Noel and the team actually returned to the main city by using horses.

Noel and Anna were riding side by side while the rest of the soldiers followed behind them. At the very back was another horse that Layla and Aurelia rode together. Layla was blind, so there was no way she could ride a horse.

All the people from the temple couldn't follow along. While they were worried, the main city should be much safer with Dimitri and Howard and the four Grandmasters in front of their eyes.

Before leaving the mayor's mansion, Noel and Anna had already felt the festive atmosphere around the city. The people had truly gathered around the mansion and spread to the main road.

The city soldiers had to create a path for Noel's convoy.

This was the first time Anna had experienced something like this. In her previous life, there was only fear or admiration in people's eyes. But the moment Noel and Anna came out of the mayor's mansion, they were greeted by cheers.

Anna could feel something more than admiration. They had respect, hope, love and loyalty when they saw her and Noel.

Instead of bringing massacre and sadness like her previous life, she could finally see herself bringing joy and hope. The scale was so much different from her time in the Demon Banner Army.

"My lord!"

"We're expressing our gratitude."

"Thank you, Lord Earl."

"We will definitely make this city great again!"

Some people cheered, some ended up kneeling to express their gratitude, and some were like kids, wanting to catch a glimpse of their new idol.

Noel waved his hand to them with a gentle smile on his face. He moved closer to Anna and held her hand while asking, "What's wrong?"

"I just have never experienced something like this. I'm still feeling a bit overwhelmed." Anna spoke, albeit slightly rushed.
