System vs Rebirth

Dimitri looked at Qiel with a solemn expression. Qiel, on the other hand, was completely perplexed. The pills came out of nowhere. On the one hand, it might be related to Duke Briton, but she didn't think it was that simple.

After defeating the demon tree, Noel also swallowed a pill. If Duke Briton had brought them, she would have gotten some information about it since it would definitely not be a small number.

The people on the border would definitely check their luggage and confirm that there was no pill.

'Wait a minute. There is one more possibility.' Qiel suddenly noticed something. The Supreme Devil Organization had a lot of information about this kingdom, including the fact that one of the royal alchemists, Khalid, was retiring in this kingdom.

He had been moving around so that no one could find him. But when she thought about it, there was a possibility that they managed to recruit Khalid.

If that were the case, there would be a lot more pills than she could imagine.

Meanwhile, Dimitri was slightly adjusting to his current state. He felt weird that Qiel didn't attack him, but it didn't seem she was fully distracted.

There must be a thought in her mind, but she still made sure that she could react to Dimitri's movement. In that case, there was only one thing to do.

Dimitri disappeared into the shadow.

Qiel hurriedly placed her hand on the ground, causing the ground to be enveloped by light. This circle of light would prevent any shadow from coming to her.

Dimitri returned to the surface after looping around Qiel and waving his blade. Qiel instinctively lowered her upper body as the slash actually cut down all the trees around them.

"!!!" The one who was shocked by this move was actually Qiel. It wasn't that she was scared or that this attack was too fast for her. Instead, she didn't understand why Dimitri decided to cut down all these trees. After all, Dimitri could manipulate their shadows.

She was the one who had been destroying the terrain this whole time to open up the area.

When that thought occurred in her mind, Dimitri waved his left hand down.

Before the trunk fell to the ground, it projected a new shadow due to its falling motion. He extended all these shadows to create an unpredictable pattern.

"!!!" Qiel jumped into the air to avoid the shadow, but the latter rose into the sky, chasing after her.

She wanted to flap her wings, but the bleeding would weaken her even further.

Hence, she actually shot an arrow to the ground, but this time, there was a black-colored string attached to the back of the arrow. She then grabbed the black string and pulled herself to the ground.

Dimitri leaped toward her while waving his blade from above.
