System vs Rebirth

Chapter 834 Escaping The Town



“Hmm?” One of Legolaz’s subordinates, who remained inside the inn, was watching the stairs calmly. His partner had described Tristan’s appearance, so as long as he could see him from here, it should be enough.

Still, it seemed that Tristan didn’t plan to go out. In fact, there wasn’t a single person coming down for the time being. Considering the time, it was normal to have no activities around their lodging.

But waiting for an unspecified period of time made him a bit bored.

Whether it was fortunate or unfortunate, there was something that piqued his interest. One of the tenants actually went down. This tenant had long brown hair and a pair of black eyes. Her skin was also tanned, but she was too tall to be called a kid.

In addition, she was a female, unlike Tristan, and wore a masquerade. She covered her body with a coat as if not planning to let the sun burn her skin.

The guy looked at her for a moment before shrugging his shoulders. He thought Tristan, but it was clear that the other party was a woman. Hence, he didn’t even bother to check her.

The woman walked gracefully to the outside and met another man. However, his partner should have seen this woman inside.

Thinking that the woman was actually another customer, that guy simply ignored her.

Hence, the woman walked away with a calm expression. After a few hundred meters, she turned around and headed to a small alley.

The woman hid behind a bunch of barrels where she uncovered her body.

It turned out the woman was made of two people. There was a guy who had been carrying her and her hands were holding a cup each, gently forming her curves under the coat.

As soon as they thought it was safe, they finally revealed their true appearances. Yes, they were none other than Sandra and Tristan.

This was one of Noel’s instructions.

“How is it?” Sandra asked.

“It’s perfect. For now, we’ll go to the north gate and leave this city through the expedition according to Master’s words.” Tristan nodded with a serious expression.

What made the woman look like a mature one was the size. Tristan made up the height while a backpack made up their general body line, causing Sandra to look like a mature woman.

They stored the coat inside the backpack while saying, “Let’s go. I’ll carry the bag for now. You will act as a lady who is employing me as your slave.”

“Alright.” Sandra agreed with the arrangement. They hurriedly sneaked around and headed to the north of the city, where a lot of people assembled.

Sandra continued using the masquerade to change her appearance while giving the air of a more refined lady.

Meanwhile, Tristan was following right behind her. Because of their clothes, no one thought they were slaves.

It didn’t take too long for them to reach the assembly where they were gathering the second wave of the expedition to investigate the ruin.

Tristan and Sandra casually blended among them as if they were parts of them.

Unbeknownst to them, there was a middle-aged man who was suddenly walking behind them. The man glared at them for a bit before moving away.

If they were stronger, they would have noticed the man and the fact that he was scanning their ability.

Unfortunately for him, the two kids were completely normal.

As a result, they managed to blend in well without anyone suspecting them.

After another two hours, they finally went on the expedition, heading straight to the ruin. Due to the combined efforts in the previous subjugation, there wasn’t a single demon appearing on their way, allowing all of them to reach the ruin without any casualties.

The group immediately ordered the people to enter the ruin and investigate them, trying to extract everything they could find.

Following the plan, Sandra looped around the building and sneaked out with Tristan, leaving the city and the ruin with no one suspecting them.

Their plan was to head to the nearest city according to Noel’s instruction.

Still, Noel had asked them to move to the north for a bit even after they couldn’t see the ruin or the city anymore. After that, they turned around and headed east.

“We are safe, right?” Sandra asked.

“Yeah. If I remember correctly, there should be a few people staring at us. Luckily, we have managed to fool them.” Tristan let out a sigh of relief. He couldn’t help but recall the message he deciphered from the letter.

“Move north for 5 km, turn east. Head to Leoppe Town.”

This was one of the instructions that Noel had given them in the letter. There were other instructions that had been left, but this was the first step. Of course, the night Noel visited, he also told them something else.

“In the morning, I’m sure that there will be someone delivering my letter. It contains my instructions in order to reach the rendezvous point. But when you receive the letter, I only want Tristan to open the door while Sandra hides somewhere in the room.”

“After that, Tristan will carry Sandra as she wears the masquerade. Use the coat to cover your look and act as casually as possible as if you don’t know anything. Once you come out, find a quiet alley to become two people again and head to the north. There will be an assembly for the expedition, and since the demons have been exterminated, it should be pretty safe.”

“Once you reach the ruin, follow the route I’ve left behind in the letter. Understood?”

When recalling the plan, Tristan couldn’t help but smile. “It seems that Master is extremely smart. How can he predict all this even though we only have a limited amount of time to meet?”

“That’s true. But aren’t you going to become his student?” Sandra smirked.

“Right? I’m feeling blessed and I’ll definitely not disappoint him.” Tristan clenched his fists. “We have enough food and water to reach the next destination as well as money to hire escorts to our real destination. Can your body keep up?”

“I have long since recovered. I can handle this much. In fact, I will help you carry the bag along the way.”

“Sure. Let’s go.”

Both Tristan and Sandra continued their journey. They might not be sure about it, but they had escaped from Legolaz and the Supreme Devil Organization.

With their disguise, they easily fooled Legolaz’s subordinates. And when someone from the Supreme Devil Organization checked them, they were only kids without proper strength. Hence, they wouldn’t be Noel, considering they were also two people and the boy didn’t have anything that covered his face.

Still, no matter how hard Noel tried to fool them, they were bound to notice sooner or later. After all, even if the kids didn’t need to go out, they still needed to eat.

So, Legolaz’s subordinate felt a bit weird when he found the kid remained in his room even after the day was almost over.

Ultimately, he decided to make a direct approach and try to find Tristan in the room through the window. But to his surprise, there wasn’t any trace of Tristan left inside the room.

He was completely shocked because he didn’t see Tristan coming out, but the kid miraculously disappeared.

Without hesitation, they reported to Legolaz. The news soon reached the second prince’s ears, who immediately ordered to search the town.

Even though they had limited manpower, they had to find Tristan, considering he was the only person who was trustworthy enough to get the runes from the author himself.

As a result of Tristan’s disappearance, Ramuer also doubted the letter and asked it to be checked.

The mobilization of their forces in order to find Tristan ended up alerting the Supreme Devil Organization, who was still looking for any trace of Noel inside the town.

Standing on top of the roof, Qiel asked her subordinate, who had just appeared next to her. “What’s wrong? Why are they mobilizing their troops? Did something happen to those frozen figures?”

“No. It seems they are searching for a kid. We don’t know the real identity of that kid yet.”

Qiel looked down, contemplating. “What kind of kid could make them mobilize their troops? Is it that brat?”

After a moment, Qiel ordered him, “Bring Azak and Nezka here. I’ll infiltrate the Great Protector’s building and find out about the identity of that person and the reason.”

Her subordinate disappeared, carrying her order.

Qiel later found out about Tristan and Noel’s relationship with him. However, it was too late. The so-called Tristan had gone too far and they didn’t know where Noel would send him.

And since Tristan could become a burden, Qiel thought Tristan was sent to the Muivell Kingdom directly. As a result, she sent two subordinates to track Tristan, thinning her group even further.

Meanwhile, Qiel remembered the direction Dimitri went and Nelfer was still chasing after him without fighting him. He perfectly knew that Nelfer would die if he was reckless.

In that instant, he finally realized what Noel planned to do. He had been trying to divide their group, wanting to eliminate Nelfer before fighting back.

Qiel panicked and immediately assembled her subordinates before chasing after Nelfer.

It turned out her prediction was correct. They had brought a total of fifty people into this kingdom that was split into two groups. Nelfer had brought one group that was tasked to investigate another city.

But when they reached Nelfer, he found Nelfer badly injured. Eight people had died under Dimitri, while two were heavily injured.

It was a complete defeat.

Qiel’s face became pale, finally understanding the threat Noel possessed.𝒃𝙚𝙙𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝒍.𝒆𝒕
