System vs Rebirth

"Regardless of her intention, I have to visit her personally to talk to her." Noel shook his head. "In any case, thank you for telling me this information."

"No, it's just a simple name."

"Mhm." Noel nodded his head and paused for a moment. "If that's the case, then I'll tell you one more thing. It's about the investigation."

"Are you going to take me out of the investigation? I'm determined to solve this mystery too since I'm involved, no, I'm in the center of the storm itself."

"That's what I want to ask you. If you wish to investigate, there is a place you might want to visit."

"My family? Should I ask my father about this?"

"No. It's not your family. It's the royal family!"

"!!!" Anna gulped down. Noel saying this was not without a reason. There was a connection between the Stargaze Family and the Royal Family, so she going there was better than Noel.

She looked down, contemplating. 'Wait a minute. If I can solve the hatred before that, is it possible to stop the rebellion?'

"Though, there is one problem." Noel raised his finger.

"A problem?"

"Yes. You are now an Apprentice Knight of the Demon Banner Army."

"Ah!" Anna facepalmed. It was mandatory that a knight from the Demon Banner Army to serve for a few years. The only way to escape the service would be failing to graduate in the first year. But that would also give a huge impact to her reputation, considering people knew her to be a genius. People would doubt her if she was talented or not.

They could claim that she might have a good conversion rate but not have the talent for fighting. It would also stain the Stargaze Family's reputation, especially after she sent herself here.

"…" Anna closed her eyes, trying to find a solution. "This is indeed hard."

"Though, there is an opportunity for you to get out of the service."

"What is it?"

"Help me die."

"Help you what?" Anna widened her eyes in shock. This was the first time someone wanted her help to die. In her past life, she was always the one to kill and those people must be unwilling to die. Yet, Noel actually wanted to die?

"Hahaha, I confused you a bit." Noel chuckled, pleased with Anna's dumbfounded expression. "What I mean about dying is just a facade. I want to fake my own death."

"Ah!" Anna let out a sigh of relief. She remembered that Noel also used his second identity back then. His death was also much faster because of the Ancient Demon Tree, but since the people knew him to be the one killing the Ancient Demon Tree with her, it was impossible to use the second identity that fast. She truly had changed the future.

"Yes. I'm going to tell you the concrete plan after graduation since I can't see the way to die yet. So, I guess we'll be together for another few months…"

"Sure. I don't mind." Anna nodded with a smile. "That's right. I also want to ask you something."

"What is it?"

Anna remembered about Kirika, so she tried to ask this question without pointing the culprit. "For example, there is someone who wants to create chaos in the Demon Banner Army by killing a thousand knights of the Demon Banner Army, what do you think the purpose of that person? Also, the method of killing is controlling numerous demons."

"Controlling numerous demons? Killing a thousand knights?" Noel didn't understand what she was talking about. But controlling the demons reminded him of the mission that asked them to kill the bandits who controlled the demons.

"No, wait. Are you possibly trying to imply that the enemy is able to control a more powerful demons. Now that I think about it, the bandits can easily control the Low Level Demons… You told me that the culprit is someone from the Supreme Devil Organization.

"If I need to connect them, all I can say is that the bandits are simply causing distraction and the real attack will be delivered by those higher ranking demons. With the loss of a thousand knights, I'm afraid that the Demon Banner Army will be panicked.

"Every year, the people who graduate from the Demon Banner Army's enlistment program is around fifty to a hundred. That's basically ten to twenty years of effort. The Demon Banner Army is not that many, but they're certainly a group of experts, so if they lose that many, I'm afraid that the Demon Banner Army will be weakened severely. Their influence will shrink more than a half, leaving a huge hole in the kingdom's defense."

Noel explained the entire situation explicitly, so Anna could understand. And Anna was stunned because the prediction was so accurate that it was beyond belief. What happened in the past life was exactly like this. More and more problems started to appear inside the kingdom.

On the one hand, Anna wanted to prevent this from happening. On the other hand, she didn't want to change the history that much.

'No. I have come back to the past to change my history. Like how I want to change Noel, I also want to change the fate of the people. If I allow the chaos to come, tens of thousands of people are going to die.' Anna clenched her fists.

Seeing her reaction, it seemed that Anna had something in her mind. Noel couldn't help but feel curious. "Why are you talking about it? Do you happen to know the future?"

"Who knows? There is someone investigating it right now, so I don't dare to say anything. I'm speaking just hypothetically, so you don't have to pay any mind. Though, now that we're done with the investigation, should we go back to the base?"

Noel stared at her for a while, noticing that she wouldn't budge with this one. He ended up sighing and said, "Sure. Let's go back tomorrow."

"Mhm." Anna nodded. "Let me store all these books first."

"Alright." Noel walked away. Although he was prepared for this, he had to leave this mansion again, the place filled with his childhood memory. He couldn't help but want to wander around to fill his loneliness.
