System vs Rebirth

Chapter 586 Die



“!!!” Illia widened her eyes in shock. They had left the mansion and escaped from the Devil Bishop. Though, she didn’t believe they were chased by such an existence the whole time.

Unfortunately for her, the reality was presented right in front of her. Because of the shock and anger, the Devil Bishop leaked a portion of her energy and killing intent.

Normal people wouldn’t be able to see the change, but those who had exceptional senses should be able to sense those two. She couldn’t help but tremble.

If Anna wasn’t here, she would certainly die on this mission.

She looked at Anna, wondering how a person could be so talented. She was still a Spirit Wielder, yet, she could easily sense a Spirit Grandmaster.

She wanted to express her shock, but she still had to look like they were not concerned about whatever happened inside the mansion. They even brought a bag to hide all the documents before disappearing into the crowd as they made their way toward the brothel.

“We have found a lot of things.” Anna smiled while putting down their harvest. There were a lot of documents to read, but these documents would be extremely useful for their next move.

While Anna was happy with the information, Illia was still standing next to her without doing anything.

“What are you doing?” Anna asked, concerned about her situation.

“I’m thankful for your warning. If I carried the task alone, I would have died.” She bowed to Anna.

“It’s fine. I didn’t do much. Without your help, I wouldn’t be able to achieve all this. So, let’s just call it even since both of us need each other. Instead, we should focus on sorting these documents.”

Illia nodded and started working with her. They had received a lot of information from the marquis. Unfortunately, they couldn’t share the information with Noel.

While they were sorting the documents, the marquis was facing multiple problems at once.

He tried to find the murderer but to no avail. It seemed that the group that ambushed his people was skilled and understood his knight’s ability to track them.

When they marched toward the direction the deceased pointed at, they couldn’t find any trace as if the group had disappeared into thin air.

Meanwhile, there were two other parties that planned to join the battle. The first party was the Third Prince, who had brought reinforcements to crush the marquis and retrieve the books, not knowing everything had been stolen.

The second party was the Arbiters. Both Arbiters had personally come to the marquis’ territory to save the marquis.

In addition to the Supreme Devil Organization, the marquis territory would soon plunge into chaos.

And the masterminds behind all the chaos… one was having a peaceful trip while the other one was sorting the harvest.

One day later. b𝚍ov𝚕.𝚝

“Shit! I have to get away!” The marquis gritted his teeth when he heard about the incoming parties.

“Where are you planning to go?” The Devil Bishop narrowed her eyes, planning to stop him in case he ran away with all the information.

The marquis had given up the <><><>… after a while. He didn’t have any more traces to track, so he could only leave the rest to his trusted subordinate. Meanwhile, he returned to the mansion to handle the problems from behind.

But the moment he returned, he found out that his mansion had been raided without anyone noticing. Even the Devil Bishop blamed him for this mistake, not telling him that the Devil Bishop had tried to capture them but to no avail.

“You are going to bring me to the Supreme Devil Organization!”

“You are not a part of the group yet. You can’t even handle this problem and bring the books. You are overestimating your worth.” The Devil Bishop snorted, pushing all the blames on him.

“You must be the one ambushing my group because you don’t want me to join the organization! You vile whore! Do you think I don’t know what you think?!”

“I told you I never did anything to your group.” The Devil Bishop narrowed her eyes, becoming more annoyed.

The two were gritting their teeth. On the one hand, the marquis knew he couldn’t force the Devil Bishop since the other party was stronger than him. Even if he tried to locate the headquarters and made direct contact, it was impossible for them to think much of him when he failed miserably.

On the other hand, the woman understood the implications this marquis would bring. If the marquis were still alive, he might expose all his deeds, trying to take them down out of spite.

So, there was only one conclusion where the organization would come on top.

And it seemed that both of them thought the same thing.

The marquis’ face became pale as he stepped back, gritting his teeth. “What are you planning to do?”

The woman smiled. “We both are smart people. I’m sure we are thinking the same thing, Marquis Walford. It’s a shame, but I have the full right to this mission. I might have failed the mission, but I have to ensure that no information about us can get out.”

The marquis immediately released his Spiritual Energy to stop her, but the woman was faster. Her hand pierced through the marquis’ body and pushed him to the wall while covering his mouth.

“Unfortunately, our cooperation ends here.” The woman stated coldly. The marquis had sacrificed a lot of things. But he ended up dying without getting any reward.

They knew that when the Arbiters and the Third Prince arrived, they would die no matter what. So, it was better to kill the marquis and destroy any evidence about them before they arrived.

That day, the marquis’ mansion was enveloped by a great fire.

Not far from the city, there was also a clash between giants.

On the one side, the Third Prince led a couple of experts. On the other side, there were two Arbiters standing next to each other.

They happened to meet on the way and knew the clash couldn’t be avoided.
