System vs Rebirth

Chapter 1068

Noel slammed open the door, finding two people inside. He recognized Count Lesen, but not the woman.

After seeing her by using the Affection Medal, he could see her name, which proved her identity.

Noel didn't even bother with courtesy. If it were his ally, he would have apologized for making them wait.

But Noel only gave them a cold gaze as if meeting them was an unpleasant time he had to spend.

"Should I call you brave or hypocritical? You were the one starting this war, but now, you are right before me." Noel looked down upon him.

His daughter only hung her head low as her body shivered. Count Lesen was similar, but there was still some life in his eyes.

He bit his lips and said, "As you said, I have no right to ask for your forgiveness. However, I'm still a lord. Even if I'm a sinner, I still have the obligation to bring closure to this war."

"You should have realized that if I'm the one losing to you, what happens to me will be worse than this, right?"

Count Lesen froze. Of course, he was aware of that fact. If Noel lost, his territory would be destroyed, his rune technology would be seized, and his life would be taken. Even worse, his wife would be sealed and even controlled by the royal family.

In other words, it would be total annihilation. If Noel asked for forgiveness, he might even lead a life much worse than death.

Count Lesen clenched his hands into fists. He dropped to the ground and kneeled before Noel. His head hit the floor so hard that it started bleeding.

"It is as you say. I'm shameless… And this shameless person would like to ask the Marquis for forgiveness. I've given my authority to my son and we will never raise our arms against you anymore. My daughter will be your slave. But please… Please end it with only my head."

Noel's expression remained unchanged. In fact, his voice became even colder. Every word struck deep in his heart. "How do I know that your son won't do the same thing? You are still related to the royal family. And do I look like someone lacking in people that I need your daughter to be my slave?

"What can your daughter even do other than be a tool of political marriage? Having her beside me will just increase the potential of her turning into a spy. And your life? You are bound to die sooner or later, Count Lesen. It doesn't have to be me who kills you."

His words might be ruthless, but that was the fact.

If this continued, a revolt would appear sooner or later. If other territories used this chance to wage a territorial war, his life would be over.

In fact, giving his daughter to him was kind of acting as her own protection.

"Spirit Oath! We can use the spirit oath!"

Noel snorted. "A spirit oath is a good binding contract, but you have to remember that you are only a noble. The spirit oath is better used by someone like me because I have much more to lose. You and your son are not even Spirit Wielder, you think I will believe that you uphold your promise?"
