System vs Rebirth

"How is it going, Felicia?" Noel asked while looking at Felicia in the air. Her posture was terrible. While she was indeed flying, it was her upper body that was following the armor. Her lower body was simply hanging.

"As expected, this is not going to work." Felicia stopped supplying Spiritual Energy into the armor and landed on the ground. "I managed to maintain my posture for a bit, but once I lost my balance, I couldn't regain it. As expected, we have to attach the lower body to the armor so that we can fly like a bird."

"If it's like that, doesn't that mean we don't need the boards to fly?" Noel asked.

Felicia fell into deep thought. "That's true. If a person can fly with the help of a rune, then there's no need for the flying board anymore. The flying board can be used to transport materials or something else."

"I see." Noel imagined Anna flying in the sky. On the one hand, the flying board looked exciting, but in terms of functionality, the flying armor would be better. Since every soldier was going to wear that armor in one way or another, he thought it would be better to just give them only the armor.

If the enemies shot them down, it meant they wouldn't survive.

However, Felicia actually gave another suggestion. "Instead, why don't we exchange their roles? The armor is used for fighting while the board… Hmm, let's not use the board. Why don't we use a small object that can be carried in one's pocket and embedded with Enhance Forward Rune? This way, when they are shot down, they could still use this small item to glide in the air as the last resort to get away."

"A palm-size item, huh?" Noel thought for a moment. "To be honest, it's far easier to embed a rune on a larger surface. So, a palm-sized object is kind of hard to give, even for me."

"Then, I will think about this a bit more. All I can say is that the flying squad is possible. While they need a lot of practice before they get used to this feeling, they will definitely become a terrifying squad. In fact, they might be able to protect the city from the flying demons."

"In that case, I will select a few soldiers. I want you to practice together with them. What do you think?"

"That's a good idea. We can also bombard the demons from the sky." Felicia agreed.

"That's settled then. While I do want you to get a Rune Body, I don't think I can grant you that right now. It's not that I don't trust you, but I don't want to betray my fiancee." Noel smiled wryly.

He didn't mind seeing other people naked, but he didn't want to do it unless it was necessary.

"Don't worry, my lord. The situation is not urgent, so I can afford to wait for another month."

"She will be back in half a month if nothing goes wrong." Noel nodded, thankful for her consideration. He suddenly turned around and noticed Dimitri coming to him.

They were training a bit away from the city so no one knew about this flying squad. But it seemed that something had come up.
