System vs Rebirth

Chapter 243 Plan

”Another mission, huh.” Anna yawned while stretching her body, waiting for Noel to come to the gate. She hadnʼt gone to her room for months, so she would have to clean it later. ”Still, is this related to the Supreme Devil Organization?”

Anna muttered while contemplating. However, a gentle voice soon echoed in her ears.

”So, you donʼt know the whole thing?”

”!!!” Anna turned around and saw Noel sneaking up on her. ”You… What are you doing?”

”Nothing.” Noel shrugged. ”Anyway, we have to be fast this time around, considering those guys might not have much time left.”

”Yes, I know.” Anna nodded and got on her horse. ”Letʼs go.”

Noel smiled and rode the horse next to her as they rushed to the city where Kirika and Lokhar were last seen.

On the way, Anna couldnʼt help but feel a bit curious about what Noel had said earlier. ”Say, Noel. Are you truly going to the Demon Relief Squad instead of Demon Extermination Squad?”

”Yeah.” Noel nodded without hesitation. ”Though, for our plan, I do want to ask you to follow me there.”

”Do you know what it means to be in the Demon Relief Squad?”The origin of this chapterʼs debut can be traced to /n/o/vel/b/in.

”Of course, I know.” Noel smiled. ”The Demon Relief Squad is always on the move because they have many people to save. The Demon Relief Squadʼs purpose is to go to deal with the demons that will help the people. In other words, theyʼre like the guards of the kingdom.

”Meanwhile, the Demon Extermination Squad is focusing on the front line, trying to expand the territory. Itʼs interesting, but itʼs not my thing.

”If Iʼm in the Demon Extermination Squad, I can only kill the demons. But if Iʼm in the Demon Relief Squad, I can kill demons as well as save people.” Noel explained his reason while adding inwardly, ʼThe squad is perfect for me to earn more points. Hahaha.ʼ

Though, Anna didnʼt know his true motive. She misunderstood his action for the goodwill and looked at Noel in admiration. ”Noel, you…”

She could understand why Noel was able to save so many people. Noel was actually a good guy in heart. If there was no hatred between them, he could do much more for the people. Yet, it was her stupid decision that turned him against her.

ʼBack then, we were on the opposite side. And in this life, weʼre on the same side. I wonder what will happen now that weʼre on the same side.. No, to what extent Noel can go in a situation like this… I canʼt help but feel excited.ʼ Anna muttered inwardly.

”Sure. Iʼll join you in the Demon Relief Squad. Though, that instructor is going to be mad after this since the best pair in the generation are going to the Demon Relief Squad instead of his squad.”

Noel shrugged because he had chosen his path.

”Anyway, what do you know abut the mission?” Noel asked.

”Hmm…” Anna contemplated a bit while looking at the detail of the mission Shale gave them earlier. ”According to the information, the target of our infiltration mission this time is a brothel… What?”

”Brothel?” Noel furrowed his eyebrows. ”Continue.”

”The rumor say that many men who visited the brothel went missing.”

”Hoh, interesting. I should probably go there myself.”

”Noel!” Anna gritted her teeth, glaring at Noel. ”Are you serious? Going to the brothel?”

”Why are you so angry? Itʼs to infiltrate that place, right? Iʼll just act like them and go there.” Noel shrugged. ”Now that I think about it, I donʼt have much money. Well, I never had any needed for money…”

”Youʼre trying to hire a woman without money.” Anna laughed as if she was truly happy that Noel couldnʼt do it.

”Whatʼs wrong with you?” Noel shook his head helplessly. ”Anyway, since I donʼt have money, you give me some.”

”…” Anna was speechless. There were so many things she wanted to say to him. After all, this felt like a husband and wife quarrel because the husband wanted to go to a brothel and asked his wife for money.

”Instead of that, I have another suggestion for you.” Anna sighed. ”How about I become the girl instead? This way, we donʼt need money.”

”You?” Noel furrowed his eyebrows before suddenly thinking a bright idea. ”Ah, now that you think about it, itʼs a good idea.”

”A good idea?”

”Yes.” Noel nodded.

”So, whatʼs the plan?”

”Iʼm going to enter the brothel through the usual way and find a girl there. Meanwhile, you come from the window or whatever and drag me from the waiting room to the bedroom before the girl I ask come in. With this, we can successfully enter the room. Using that as an excuse, weʼre going to go around the floor to find any clue about Kirika and Lokhar.”

”I see. Thatʼs an option as well.” Anna nodded in understanding.

”Good. Thatʼs the basic plan. If we donʼt have any clue, just kidnap one of the girls… Or maybe I should go to the room with that girl instead and you knock her out to interrogate her?”

”Thatʼs also another plan. I guess we have to see what kind of brothel it is first?”

”Yeah. For now, thatʼs the base plan. Weʼll discuss it again after we arrive. Also, is there anything youʼd like to say about the mission itself?”

Anna thought for a moment and said, ”It might be related to the Supreme Devil Organization.”

”They are everywhere, eh…” Noel shook his head helplessly.

”Yes. Their low ranking members are easy to find but the high ranking members are hard to find because their tattoos are hidden. The low ranking members are used for the advertisement… I mean, theyʼre going to scare the people or make them feel relieved by the sight of them. Meanwhile, the high ranking people do the things in the shadows. Thatʼs why theyʼre extremely dangerous.”

”I see.” Noel nodded with a serious expression. ”In that case, there must be a hidden room or something. That much is required for their operation… And itʼs most likely where they put all the kidnapped people in.”
