System vs Rebirth

The Fire Lord gritted his teeth while the Light Lord slammed the table with his hand. "What are you doing? Why are you lowering yourself to that kid? He might be Noel Ardagan's disciple, but there's no way his brilliance can be compared to him. Noel Ardagan is just a freak, so why are you following his demand?"

The Fire Lord gritted his teeth. "It's because Noel Ardagan is a freak that I'm following that kid!"

The Light Lord looked stunned. "What are you talking about?"

"I noticed a presence much stronger than me."

"!!!" The Light Lord took a step back. "What are you talking about? Noel Ardagan and Anna Stargaze might have become a spirit transcendence, but both of them have left. Our people have confirmed them leaving as well. Are you saying they're abandoning that mission? No. Are they using that mission to lower our guard?"

The Fire Lord shook his head. "That person's spiritual energy was so swift that before I realized it, it had already struck my head, almost paralyzing me. There might be another spirit transcendence in this city."

"What? The third spirit transcendence?" The Light Lord gasped. "Do you know what you're saying right now? Even if we end up working with the Demon Banner Army, we can only get a fair fight with two versus two spirit transcendences.

"However, if there is a third spirit transcendence, doesn't that mean the Muivell Kingdom doesn't stand a chance?"

The Fire Lord fell silent. "No. We might still have a chance, but we have to collaborate with the Third Prince's faction."

"That prince?" The Light Lord almost forgot that the Third Prince was the one stopping the Magic Lord due to his new strength.

If that was the case, they indeed had the chance to maintain balance.

However, the Fire Lord couldn't help but misunderstand the situation. "We've been had. The Ardagan family has never been destroyed or weakened."

"What do you mean?"

"What if the Ardagan family has always been hiding the existence of this spirit transcendence? What if this spirit transcendence is actually the first spirit transcendence that the Ardagan family has?

"What if this person is actually the real reason for Noel Ardagan and Anna Stargaze's advancement to the spirit transcendence?"

The Light Lord was dumbfounded. "This person is their teacher?" Read new adventures at My Virtual Library Empire

"That might be the case. This is the only explanation why those two are able to become a spirit transcendence so quickly. I have heard about the process of becoming a transcendence.

"You not only need the spiritual energy enough to be the so-called spirit transcendence, but it also requires you to find a transcendent path.

"And this person might teach them the transcendent path. Of course, with their talents, finding it might be much quicker than the others. That's why they're able to become a spirit transcendence before anyone else, including the royal faction or the Demon Banner Army."

"…" The Light Lord turned pale. They truly had been tricked this whole time. It turned out the Ardagan family had been planning this. "Then are we going to be killed here?"

"Not necessarily. The Ardagan family knows that we're the envoys of the Tower Association, so having us die in their territory will definitely destroy their reputation.

"Hence, they won't kill us. Besides, we should stick to the original objective, which was to find any flaws you can and provoke the Ardagan family. If possible, we'll seize the rune technology with the laws."

The Light Lord frowned. "Still, our movement will be restricted."

"I know. That's why we have to split up. I will be handling that brat while you find the flaw. Although he might not be as good as his teacher, he is still his student, so we can't underestimate him.

"As long as we manage to remove him from the equation, we will be able to crush them. You should find a way to sneak into their facility and sabotage some rune technology to create chaos."

"All right." The Light Lord nodded his head. This was definitely a good enough plan, especially after Tristan showed off his knowledge.

"Also, beware of the Demon Relief Squad. Although Clara is still weaker than us, she is still one of the top 5 captains in the Demon Banner Army. I recently heard her rank was 3rd, only a bit weaker than Captain Shale and Captain Doran."

The Light Lord crossed his arms. "Should we handle them?"

They didn't realize two things. The first would be the noble that planned to come to the Ardagan family would bring them a surprise, which was none other than the weapon that they needed to stop Tristan.

The second thing was that they shouldn't have underestimated the hearing of a dog.

"Heh?" Melissa was outside the inn, but she could still listen to their conversation. Feeling amused, Melissa knew how to deal with the situation. "This is going to be an interesting show."

While they were discussing how to deal with the Ardagan family, Sandra was arranging the Demon Relief Squad's accommodation, which was in a different inn to lower the two elders' guards.

On the other hand, Rose arranged Roel's defense and warned them about the incoming annoyance.

She even asked the Demon Relief Squad to inspect the rune technology so that they could protect Roel and the others.

Meanwhile, Tristan was planning to overwhelm whoever wanted to stop him by using the same tactic, which was using imperial laws.

Of course, as the most important person in the city, Howard had to stand by his side all the time. Even if he couldn't fight against the enemy, he could still hold them off for some time.

Besides, Tristan was a Rune Meister, while Sandra remained on his side like a normal maid, not showing that she had been equipped with both hidden weapons and rune cards.

Both sides' preparations were done. It was time for their clash.

And that clash started one day later, when the noble from the royal faction finally arrived at the Ardagan family.
