System vs Rebirth

"Hmmm… So, they want us to attack them from behind?" Alexander squinted his eyes.

"Yes. If we can somehow do this, we'll distract the Demon Banner Army and allow those people to attack Anna Stargaze," said Josephine.

"Hahaha. I have never thought that you would agree to this, especially since she was your disciple!"

Josephine gritted her teeth. "Never mention it again."

How could she like it when that very disciple betrayed her? Then again, how could she not feel ashamed when the disciple she had brainwashed turned out to be the one fooling her?

"Well… we still have to fight against the Demon Banner Army once again. Who is the captain we have to destroy this time?" Alexander asked.

"It's Shale."

"Oh, that young guy. He is very strong." Alexander thought for a moment. "There should be two more captains nearby, right?"

"Indeed."

Alexander thought for a moment. "What is going on with the preparation? Do we have to fight all of them?"

"No. We just have to take care of the one on the west. The other one will be handled by the Tower Association."

"Hoh? In that case, let us begin." Alexander nodded.

"Yes." Josephine waved her hand, forming several portals next to them. One by one, Supreme Devil Organization members came out of the portal. "Let's start the party."

Alexander waved his hand while muttering, "I'll wait here to conserve my stamina. I'm sure that Oscar will come here. Even if they can't predict everything, we should stop underestimating Noel Ardagan."

"…" Josephine didn't want to admit it, but she shared the sentiment. Even if they fought, they would have to be careful or they would suffer major damage.

…

The bells in the city started ringing as people were running around. The squads were assembling on top of the city's wall, ready to fight.

"Sir. The enemies are coming. Since they are humans, we should assume they are from the Supreme Devil Organization."

Shale's expression turned dark. He stood up while asking, "How is the preparation?"

"Everything is ready, sir."

"Inform the commander that we'll stop them for fifteen minutes. We need him to come right away."

"Yes, sir!"

The people started going back and forth. Messenger birds were flying in multiple directions as the soldiers were keeping the citizens safe.

Obviously, the commander knew about it too.

The distance from Shale's post to the Demon Banner Army's headquarters could be covered in just ten minutes for the fastest bird he had.

Milfa immediately brought the news to the commander. "Sir. Shale has been attacked. The other captains are reinforcing him, but there is a big chance that Josephine and Alexander are involved in this attack. They need you."

Oscar couldn't help but smile. "I have never thought that it will be this easy. I have always said that Noel Ardagan is talented, but he doesn't only create an opportunity to attack but also allows me to display my best strength. How are the preparations?"

"Everything is in position."

"Tell them to begin. It's time for us to deal huge damage to the Supreme Devil Organization."

"Sir… I think you have to be careful. They might be combining the attacks with the demonic humans."

"It seems that you don't fully understand my tactics. Nevertheless, just do it. I have handled everything."

Milfa tilted her head in confusion. "Alright."

…

Obviously, Oscar had to send information to Anna as well, showing that they would be attacked.

But before the information from Oscar came, she got one from Noel first.

"We have received a letter from the Marquis." Howard came to Anna. "It's said that once we reach the Dulva Plain, the enemy will attack."

"I understand." Anna nodded. "According to our pace, the easiest place to attack us is definitely the Dulva Plain. It's not that far from the Greenwood Kingdom, but not so close either, which will seal reinforcement from the Greenwood Kingdom. The Moon Temple won't send reinforcement either.

"In other words, we'll be handling them by ourselves. Are you ready, Howard? The enemies will be much harder than you have seen so far."

Howard smiled. "If, in the end, we will have to fight a lot of demons and demonic humans, this will be a good warm up. The soldiers have to understand what kind of cause we're fighting for."

Anna smiled. "Are the elite soldiers ready?"

"Yes, Ma'am."

"The Rune Magician Squad?"

"They are in position."

"Immediately form a defensive position and set up an ambush to reduce the enemies once they attack. I'll kill the rest."

Howard squinted his eyes. "Are you going to reveal your true strength?"

"Noel has made a decision. It's time for us to gain our initiative this time."

"Understood."

As soon as Howard left, Anna's eyes turned to Melissa. "Are you ready for it?" Check out m_vl_em_p_yr stories

"Yeah. I have never thought that we have to fight humans."

"Unfortunately… Even though I'm a human myself, I can say that humans are the greediest creature, the most depraved, and the insufferable creatures this world has. I'm still like that." Anna had a sad smile on herself, even though her greed was simply everything about Noel.

"What do you want me to do?"

"Loop around and create a safety net. If they run away, kill them."

Melissa nodded and disappeared.

Meanwhile, Anna was sighing before muttering, "I have gathered their attention here, my dear husband. They won't be looking in your direction for a while."

…

While they were preparing for wars, Noel was actually busy 'digging.' Yes, he had to dig up all the items from the Treasury and transport them back to the new Treasury.

Incetta helped him, but due to the importance of the items, Noel chose to avoid getting anyone's help.

Even Dimitri and Rose didn't know this.

Still, something unexpected happened.

"What are they doing here? The Demon Spear Squad shouldn't be coming here, right?" Alexander shouted, looking at the Demon Spear Squad's captain from a distance.

"I don't know. The Tower Association should have been the one stopping them."

"Do they betray us?!"
