System vs Rebirth

Chapter 1064

"In that case, we'll take our leave now, Marquis." Earl Haverson politely shook Noel's hand.

"Yes. Please take care of the situation over there."

"Of course. It's time to destroy Earl Canmond economically." Earl Haverson smiled and took a step back before walking away.

Earl Havenson was the last noble he met before going home. During the day, they had been walking around the town to greet the citizens.

And after taking care of everything, they could finally return to the main city with everyone.

While looking at Earl Haverson's back, Noel's expression turned sad.

"What's wrong? Isn't the plan going well? Or is there a problem?" Anna, who was accompanying him the whole day, couldn't help but look concerned.

"It's nothing. The plan itself works very well. It's just…" Noel paused for a moment. "The ones who will suffer the most are the common people."

Anna held his hand. "I know you've done your best. Sadly, there is no other way to do this. If we seek the Greenwood Kingdom's help, the royal family will take action against us. If we engage in a territorial war, it can be seen as rebellion. That's why I know that you want to end this problem as quickly as possible, so even when the common people suffer, it will be for a brief moment. You have even prepared the relief supplies."

Noel bit his lips. As a lord, he had to be merciless to his enemies. But he knew that if he fought nobles, the common people under those nobles would suffer the most.

"I love that kindness of yours." Anna rested her head on Noel's shoulder.

"Kindness, huh? It's just my principle. It's just… I'm afraid that if I continue doing this, the bad and corrupted effects of being a noble will affect me and turn me into someone that I hate."

"When that time happens, I will surely give you a good smack."

A small smile appeared on Noel's face. He took a deep breath and said, "Let's go back, shall we?"

"En."

While Lounstein was celebrating the marriage, the four nobles were facing a huge crisis right before their eyes.

"My lord! It's not good!" A butler entered Earl Canmond's office with a panicked expression.

"What's wrong?" Earl Canmond's expression turned grim. The situation in his territory wasn't good, so he thought there might be a riot starting.

Unfortunately for him, the one that struck him was much worse than a mere riot.
