System vs Rebirth

Chapter 1288 Elaine's Betrayal? "This is the dirt on the Ardagan family you've requested from me." Elaine gave him a pack of documents.

"Hmmm? What is this?" He furrowed his eyebrows, staring at the title. "The laws of the Ardagan family?"

"Yes. In there, you will find something about the meritocracy, a system where people can rise in status through their merit. This is not that uncommon in our kingdom, considering there are a lot of knights that are able to become nobles through this, right?"

He nodded.

"In the Ardagan family, it is different. First of all, the scope itself is extremely wide. Whether you are a farmer or a knight, you will have the same chance. Why do you think I, who have been reduced to a mere prisoner, am able to get this kind of position?

"This is precisely the reason." Elaine explained.

He tilted his head in confusion. "I don't see why this is a dirt on the Ardagan family."

"The reason for this meritocracy is not the same as the kingdom. The real reason for Marquis Ardagan to adopt this system is due to his disciple. You should be aware of the true identity of his disciple, right?"

"!!!" He almost forgot about this. That was right. Tristan might have become Noel's disciple, but he was formerly a slave. "Are you telling me that the Ardagan family adopted this system so that he could use the legal power of the Muivell Kingdom to change the status of his disciple from a slave to a noble?"

"Yes. You should understand that slavery is not adopted in our kingdom. On the other hand, the Atracaeca Kingdom is different.

"If you take a look at it, you will realize that he has included that no matter what their status is, they will be subjected to this system. It means that Noel Ardagan has acknowledged the slavery, including his disciple status as a slave.
