System vs Rebirth

*Roar!*

*Roar!*

*Roar!*

A series of roars immediately livened up the area.

The group consisted of the elites from multiple squads who immediately looked at each other.

Shale focused on his vice captain. She was the woman that stood behind Shale during the meeting.

“Rhane. I’ll leave those demons to you. Do the usual!”

Rhane, the vice captain of the Demon Extermination Squad, nodded her head. She then turned around, looking at the people in the squads that would follow her.

Everyone seemed to be excited as they were made for the purpose of exterminating the demons. Since they could kill a lot of demons, they were pretty eager to do it.

However, Rhane suddenly opened her mouth, saying with a genuine yet serious tone. “I believe in you guys.”

“…” The words didn’t seem to have any hidden meaning. Even Noel was confused about why she said such a thing.

But to everyone’s surprise, the expressions of those people completely changed. They all became serious as if they remembered their original purpose.

They might be exterminating the monsters, but they did it in order to protect these people. And with Rhane saying those words without any other meaning, it showed how much she truly believed in them. They shouldn’t betray that trust.

“Let’s—” Before Rhane commanded the squads, there were multiple demons that managed to sniff their scents and reach their position.

“Four demons spotted!” One of the Demon Beholder Squad’s members informed them out loud.

At the same time, a few more members of the squad suddenly appeared on top of the monsters, killing those monsters before they could inform the other monsters.

“Targets have been neutralized.” The Demon Beholder Squad’s member confirmed it again.

But it seemed that they had made a bit too much noise when informing them. There were a few roars coming to their position as if they were following the human’s voice from earlier.

In that instant, Rhane pulled out her sword and started moving forward. She didn’t forget to leave behind a message. “Leave the front to us. We’ll escort you.”

In that instant, the squads that followed Rhane followed her. They spread a bit, but their strength was completely overwhelming the enemies.

This might be the first time Noel saw the overwhelming power of the top squad of the Demon Banner Army.

Rhane was swinging her sword once, but suddenly, a few demons got their head cut. Even other members easily killed the demons in their path. Even two Advanced Demons couldn’t hold a candle as they were easily overpowered by two members with their unique cooperation.

They were extremely versatile when killing demons. This was the Demon Extermination Squad.

Noel was observing them carefully, trying to learn their movement and cooperation. However, he couldn’t really focus on them since the rest of the group began to move toward the mysterious facility.

After a while, Septa’s squad began to separate themselves to act as the ears and eyes for the Demon Extermination Squad outside the building, leaving only a small number of elites in the exploration team.

There were only twelve people from the Demon Extermination Squad, eight people from the Demon Relief Squad, five people from the Demon Beholder Squad, and two elders from the association.

It might look like a lot, but considering there might be hundreds if not thousands of demons inside the mysterious facility, they were truly a small group.

It didn’t take too long for them to reach the mysterious facility. All demons had been killed by the Demon Extermination Squad.

As expected, the more the demons came, the harder to silence all of them. In the end, a few demons managed to share their location and caused more and more demons to come to their position.

Luckily, they moved quickly. They reached the building before they were surrounded by the demons.

Once they stood in front of the building, they could finally experience how big the building was compared to them.

Septa immediately stopped them while pointing to the side as if telling them to hide behind the walls.

They didn’t know what was going on, but they followed Septa’s instructions.

“Spread into two groups and enter through the windows. Immediately lock yourself in and don’t make any sound,” said Septa with a serious expression. He kept staring at the entrance that was made of glass.

They immediately followed Septa’s instructions. Clara and Paul split up as each of them brought three people. ｂ𝚍ｎｏ𝚟ｌ.

Noel ended up under Clara while Rose was with Paul. They didn’t know what was going on, but they felt it was something big.

Still, Septa didn’t have any hesitation in his movement. As soon as they reached the window, he took a peek inside before pointing at the door.

Shale nodded and waved his hand, utilizing his wind ability to close the door quietly. He did the same thing to the other room.

As soon as the doors were closed, they sneaked in through the windows.

Noel didn’t expect that he would end up in the same room as Clara, Shale, and Septa. Meanwhile, the other rooms had two elders from the association.

Still, the room he entered wasn’t big.

It was only six meters wide and four meters long. With thirteen people inside the room, it felt cramped immediately. In addition, there were a lot of mysterious items inside the room, so they couldn’t move carelessly.

Noel took a quick scan of the room. There was one bed on the right side of the room, followed by a few chairs. There was a weird machine next to the bed. With all the cables looping around, it was easy to know that this machine was used by whoever slept on that bed.

There was a giant round lamp above them. Although it wasn’t on, they could imagine how bright it would be.

Still, the lamp wasn’t a candle or Demon Crystal, so Noel couldn’t help but wonder how they worked.

On the opposite side of the room, there was a big empty space as though it was used as a waiting area.

Though, the one thing that piqued Noel’s interest was the shelf on the corner.

‘Hmm?’
