System vs Rebirth

Creak!

The sound of the door opening echoed inside the room as Marquis Benedict turned his head around to confirm the identity of the person. As soon as he saw a black-haired man entering the room, he hurriedly stood up and placed his hand on his chest. "Marquis Benedict from the Zaecuria Kingdom. It's a pleasure to meet you."

"I apologize for making you wait even though I know that you have a long journey to reach this place." Noel smiled while walking to Marquis Benedict. After shaking hands, both of them sat down.

"Please don't worry about it. Me and my soldiers have gotten some rest thanks to it." Marquis Benedict shook his head.

"So, may I know the reason for your visit this time, Marquis Benedict?" Noel asked.

"I am here to congratulate you for becoming a noble, O' Master of Runes, Earl Noel Ardagan." Benedict paused for a moment before listing the gifts. "It's not much, but I've brought a lot of jewels, gold, treasures, and Demon Crystals."

"I thank you and the Zaecuria Kingdom for showing such kindness to a mere earl like me." Noel just played along with the pleasantries.

However, that was enough to make Marquis Benedict twitch his eyebrows. Who would believe Noel was just a mere Earl? His technology would allow him to become a Marquis easily if he spread that technology. Once he established his strength, becoming a Duke was not impossible.

In fact, if there was no conflict between the Ardagan Family and the Royal Family, the latter would have sent their princess to marry Noel to make it easier for them to elevate Noel's position as a Duke.

Marquis Benedict said, "Seeing how busy you are, I believe that we can skip pleasantries and focus on the main topic."

Noel's expression turned serious. "Please…"

"First of all, we would like to know about the Rune Academy. Do you know the age limit for attending the rune school?"

"Rune Academy… As the name implies, it's an academy for the young generations to become better than the current generations. At the same time, I know that it's going to be unfair to those older generations because they know more and will probably learn it faster than the younger generations. That's why I'm planning to first separate it into three categories: Expert, Talented, and Common. I think you know what I'm implying here."

"So, the Expert Class is for the older generations whose experience and wisdom have been polished. The Talented Class is for the younger generations. As for the common, are you trying to recruit commoners, Mr. Noel?"

"No. Talented is for those who have Spirits while Common is the class for people who don't have spirits. After all, my runes only need Spiritual Energy, not spirits. And I'm not planning to separate the nobles and the commoners in my territory."

"Not separating nobles and commoners? Won't this cause friction between them?"

"Indeed. Theoretically speaking, the principal of this academy will be my direct disciple, Livia. Do you think anyone has a higher status than her?"

Benedict fell silent for a moment before shaking his head.
