System vs Rebirth

Chapter 1160: Incomplete The elders couldn't help but furrow their eyebrows when they sensed the strength exuding from the bodies of these two humans. They still covered their bodies and faces, but they could feel that even if all of them fought them, there was a high chance that several of them would die in the process. That was what their animal instinct was telling them.

Noel and Anna were also looking around, assessing the situation and the elders' strength. Still, the one piquing his interest was the man in the middle. Six people, no seven people were sitting on the opposite side, including the phantom who had led them here. But the weakest person was actually sitting in the middle, as if he were the one leading them.

This person had the complete body of a lion, but he was able to stand on two feet like a human.

"Thank you for inviting us here, Old Ru. However, I'm still unable to understand the reason for your sudden invitation…" Noel lowered his hood. He didn't greet them since they were in equal positions. In addition, he had been invited all of a sudden, so it would be better to focus on the matter at hand.

Old Ru smiled. "I think you have guessed the reason already."

"Ardagan…" Noel squinted his yes. "No. Something related to my ancestors?"

The lion squinted his eyes. He opened his mouth. "This is surprising. Even though there is supposed to be no record about it, you are able to guess it."

Obviously, Noel was clueless if he didn't meet Vivi. She told him that his ancestor's inheritance actually resided in the Beast Kingdom. He instantly linked it with Old Ru's invitation.

"It's merely a guess." Noel shook his head.

"The reason I call you is exactly for that reason. In the past, there was a prophecy. In the future, the slumbering divine blade will wake up again. It's not the sign of protection, but the mark of counterattack."

Noel frowned. "The mark of counterattack…"

He never thought that the prophecy was accurate. If he managed to survive this ordeal, he wanted to explore the world while cutting down some demons along the way.

Of course, what he could do was try to survive this whole time. He wasn't at the level where he had the leeway to strike back.
