System vs Rebirth

In the field south of Noel's city, there were two garrisons facing each other. The first one had a white carriage wearing the symbol of two swords and a shield. This was the official symbol of the Muivell Kingdom.

The carriage was guarded by at least a hundred men and their strength wasn't that low either.

On the opposite side was another garrison. They didn't have any carriages, and most of them were cavalries. The one leading them was none other than Howard.

"Is this how the Earl family treated their guests?" A shout coming from the carriage broke the tension between the two parties.

The knights behind Howard looked annoyed, but Howard waved his hand, stopping them.

As expected, an old man came out of the carriage while bringing out a big scroll from his hand. "Is this the stance of Earl Ardagan?"

"I am sorry, but from this point on, this is the forbidden area as imposed by Earl Ardagan. We can't allow you to go any further." Howard shook his head. It was clear what the royal envoy planned to do here. By using this as an excuse, they would observe their city and find out about all kinds of new technology. Hence, Noel sent Howard to stop them.

"I am bearing the royal decree for Earl Ardagan. Are you going to stop me?!"

Anyone who stopped the royal decree would be branded as traitors, so Howard had no choice but to let him in, except for the fact that Noel had prepared for this.

The only reason he sent Howard first was to block them, and the moment they brought out the imperial decree, it was time for Noel to appear.

"I have seen the royal decree and shall serve the kingdom." Noel's voice echoed in everyone's ears.

In that instant, all the knights from the Ardagan family, including Howard, jumped off their horses and kneeled on one knee, revealing a single person behind them.

Noel was walking forward and finally stopped in front of the old man. He recognized this old man. If his memory served him right, the person before him had the title of aEarl. It was the same as him, but he was the follower of the royal family.

"!!!" The Earl didn't expect that Noel was among them. At the same time, he was wearing a formal white cilitary uniform, the same uniform that was given to him the moment he became a noble. This was to show that his title came from his original affiliation, which was the Demon Banner Army. Since the Demon Banner Army's uniform was black, this white color symbolized that he had switched sides.

The Earl didn't know why, but he felt the immeasurable pressure coming from Noel. Even though he wasn't doing anything, it felt like his neck was being choked by an invisible hand.

Once he stood before him, Noel gracefully lowered his body and knelt down like a knight.
