System vs Rebirth

Anna and the crown prince looked into each other's eyes, both having the same intention. They planned to crush the person in front of them.

"To think that the crown prince would come to this humble place personally…" Anna's expression became cold. "If you still think about me, then I will tell you again and again. It's impossible."

The crown prince's eyebrows twitched. He said, "Do you think Noel Ardagan is so great? Even if he is talented, he still can't be compared to the royal family. You should remember that the royal family once executed his parents because of you, Anna Stargaze. No matter how you're going to twist it, you'll always be the murderer of his parents."

Anna remained calm. She had learned that Noel's parents were still alive. While it didn't erase her past, she could finally move forward.

She raised her head and said, "Yet Noel forgives me. That's why, from now on, my only wish is to stay by his side, protecting this place for him."

"Do you think you can protect it?" The crown prince smirked. "With a single word from me, I can make the Ardagan family once again destroyed. Noel Ardagan, for the sake of his parents, raises an army to rebel. Do you know what will happen next?

"The marshal and a hundred thousand of the royal army will be coming toward this place. Even all the nobles who want a piece of this territory will join."

"You…" Anna gritted her teeth.

"It seems that you have forgotten about the basics. Don't outshine the Lord you serve." The crown prince's expression turned dark. "Your new invention? They are weapons of war. If you use it and strike the royal capital, people can imagine the destruction it will cause."

"That's all a lie! You're accusing us! Noel never has an intention to betray the kingdom. If he had that thought, he would have gone to another kingdom instead of remaining here." Anna stood up.

"That's for people to decide." The crown prince snorted. It was clear that the royal family could easily make people think about what they wanted. Rumors were easily spread, especially when the inquisitor worked in the dark.

The moment Noel was branded as a rebel, the royal family wouldn't spare any efforts in destroying the Ardagan family and seizing their new technology.

"You…" Anna clenched her fists.

"If you don't want that to happen… sit down first." The crown prince had a smug smile on his face.

Anna looked unwilling, but she ended up sitting down as if she had no other choice. With a distorted face, she said, "What do you want?"

"Now, we're talking." The crown prince smiled as he suddenly stood up so that he could sit next to Anna.

"Crown Prince, please respect yourself." Anna moved to the edge of the couch after raising her voice.

"So, do you want the royal army to flatten this place?"
