System vs Rebirth-Novel

"Young Master!" Dimitri instantly appeared the moment he saw Noel delivering the killing blow. It seemed that he had taken care of the rest of the demons in the area and had been waiting for him to finish.

Noel smiled at Dimitri before dropping to his knees while coughing up blood. "Gah."

"Young Master!" Dimitri tried to check his condition. He even used his Spiritual Energy to scan Noel's body.

But surprisingly, aside from the heat, Noel's body was completely fine. He might experience a huge discomfort for a while, but he will definitely recover from this.

He couldn't help but feel relieved. He wanted to intervene this whole time, but he had a bet to uphold. If he participated in the battle before Noel gave up, he would break his own promise. So, he chose to believe him.

"I'm fine." Noel let out a sigh. "This is truly hard."

"No. I'm extremely impressed by Young Master's strength." Dimitri shook his head. He pointed at the demon and said with a serious expression. "Look at the demon, Young Master. The demon was extremely strong. If I'm not wrong, it's close to the limit of a Peak Level Demon.

"And that kind of demon was defeated by you, who had just become a Spirit Master not long ago.

"To think the young master can surpass that gap…" Dimitri sighed, feeling overwhelmed by the victory.

Noel knew there were four phases to differentiate a single level. He was in the first phase of the Spirit Master, a new Spirit Master.

Once he had more Spiritual Energy to consolidate his power, he would become a solid Spirit Master.

If he could utilize all his abilities as a Spirit Master, he would reach the next phase. Meanwhile, the last phase was just the preparation to break through to the Spirit Grandmaster.

The fact that Noel could bypass the gap between a new Spirit Master and the last phase Spirit Master was amazing. It was almost impossible for someone to fight someone above their level, let alone a few levels.

Although Noel managed to take it down with surprise, it didn't change the fact that Noel's Black Fire, Powerful Ice, and Unique Rune allowed him to have the same strength as someone in the third or fourth phase of Spirit Master despite being a new Spirit Master.

'If he is allowed to grow, he will become unstoppable. With his other talents, there is no doubt that he will become a leading figure in the future.' Dimitri thought after observing Noel's ability.

Even though it was such a shocking scene, Noel wasn't fixated on his ability. Instead, he focused on the mission he had just completed.

[Mission: Defeat the Fire Bird Demon]

[Description: Go to the Northwest of Lelelei Fort and kill the Fire Bird Demon]

[Reward: 49 SP and One with Flame Medal]

[Penalty: Someone gets it.]

Noel received 49 Skill Points in one go and a new medal. He immediately checked the medal's power and was surprised by it.

Medal: One with Flame

Effect: Flame Ability +10%

It was a simple description, but it was enough to show the overwhelming effect the medal had.

'What? Ten percent of my flame ability? My Undying Fire is already so powerful to the point the demon didn't dare to fight it head-on. What will happen if I use this medal? And what if I get the second medal slot along with another medal with fire ability amplification?'

Noel gasped from that thought alone. He would become extremely terrifying in the future.

As Noel thought previously, the daily mission or the medal might increase a small portion of his abilities to the point it looked completely insignificant.

But when he went further and further in this path, the amplification would become bigger and bigger. Eventually, he would reach a point where the medal alone could allow him to skip a single level.

'This is good. Extremely good. If I continue this way, I will become unstoppable.' Noel had no intention of becoming a ruler.

Even he acknowledged his lack of ability. He might be able to become a noble that governed a single territory, but he wasn't good enough to be a leader of a country.

Besides, his ambition was not that small. So, he wanted to become unstoppable for his ambition instead of his revenge.

If he thought for too long, Dimitri would be confused. So, Noel dropped the thought for a moment since he had one more task to do.

"Protect me for fifteen minutes. I'm going to recover a bit of my strength before I cut open the demon's corpse."

"Understood." Dimitri nodded and immediately disappeared, giving Noel time to recover.

Noel cooled down the temperature in his body while recovering some Spiritual Energy. Even though he had used a lot of Spiritual Energy earlier, it seemed that he still had a lot of Spiritual Energy to spare.

After recovering a portion of his strength, Noel stood up while unsheathing Ardagan. He walked toward the bird and saw Rose in the corner of his eye. It seemed that she had regrouped with Dimitri, but because he was meditating earlier, Dimitri stopped her.

So, Noel gave a nod to her first to show that he was fine. After that, he continued to the demon and cut open the head and the body.

Just like any other demon, the head contained the Peak Level Crystal. But the real objective of killing this monster was its heart.

The Fire Bird was an extremely powerful animal that had undergone an evolution due to the existence of Spiritual Energy after the demon's invasion. It was just a normal bird before, so it showed how much stronger they were compared to other species when they managed to evolve by themselves.

And the secret to their evolution was their heart.

When Noel cut open the body, there was an oval-shaped organ burning fiercely inside the dead body. This was the Fire Bird's heart.

'So, this is the heart. It's said it can grant powerful abilities and even evolution for the spirit if one consumes this heart… So, I have high expectations from this heart.'

Noel smiled while extending his hand, absorbing the energy from the heart without hesitation.
