System vs Rebirth

[Mission: Kill Sniper Devil Saint (Complete)]

[Description: Kill Qiel, the brain of the Supreme Devil Organization.]

[Reward: An Advanced Rune (One Category of Choice).]

"Huh?" Noel raised his eyebrows, looking at the mission. 'Huh? Qiel died? What happened? Did she lose too much blood?'

Noel felt something was amiss. On the one hand, there was indeed a possibility that she died that way. On the other hand, they weren't pursuing her, so they should be able to stop somewhere and close the wounds.

"What's wrong?" Anna asked, noticing Noel's change of expression.

"This…" Noel fell silent for a moment before whispering the truth. "Qiel died just now. The mission confirmed it, so it must be true."

"Wha—mmmph!" Anna was shocked, but Noel hurriedly covered her mouth to not show it. Although it was joyous news, they couldn't really declare it. What was the proof? People would simply become suspicious of them.

Anna's expression turned solemn. "Are you sure about this?"

"The system has never been wrong this whole time, so I believe that's the case. It's just that I don't know the process."

Anna looked down, falling into deep thought. After a moment, she whispered, "Maybe your parents made their move."

Noel frowned. He didn't think it was possible. After all, if they made their move, they would have to fight Laufey and Qiel. If just a single one of them survived, the consequences would be fatal.

Anna continued, "They still have three Spirit Grandmasters like the former captain, Raven, and the ghost, Silvester. Don't you think it's possible? Besides, Qiel is severely injured and with this timing, the True Spirit Body should have worn off. So she shouldn't be able to fight that much.

"Laufey is the same. Although he is not injured, the Spirit Veins are broken due to the side effects of the True Spirit Body. So, don't you think it's possible to kill them?"

Noel still didn't believe this was enough. The risk was simply too big. Even if they didn't make a move, Qiel's condition should be enough to render her useless in a fight.

If they disclosed their existence, the royal family would definitely unleash everything they had to defeat them. In the worst case scenario, the Transcendence Experts from the royal family and the organization would join hands to destroy their Ardagan Family.

He didn't believe that Oscar would help them in this matter. That was why he still thought there must be something else.

"This is weird. Did I miss something else?" Noel tilted his head in confusion. There was one thing that looked a bit weird. He had a mission to kill the Devil Saints, but Laufey wasn't on the list. It was probably because Anna was his opponent, but was that the only case?
