System vs Rebirth

Scree!

A loud cry was released by the spider as if trying to inform all the demons that Noel and Anna had cback for revenge.

It might be due to the fact that they knew both of them had reached Spirit Transcendence rank, they were mobilizing all their demons right away.

No, Noel could see the deep wisdom the spider had. There was no way the Ancient Demon Spider wouldn't have realized that Noel and Anna were capable of knowing there would be a trick in this battle. That was why the spider chose to not hide anything and make a head-on clash.

Noel raised his head, seeing the spider that was charging its energy to utilize its poison ray.

Because the fire wings were unusable, he summoned a single ice wing on the left side of his back. The transformation of his body into a half spirit indeed caused several changes such as his wings. He believed that he had to use a fire wing on the right side if he wanted to fully fly.

For the tbeing, this one wing was enough to help him move around in the air. Meanwhile, he lifted his body with the runes.

Once he was in the air, several demons hurriedly concentrated their spiritual energy, preparing to shoot Noel down.

In those several seconds, Noel had seen the movements of the demons. "Five thousand coming from the front, ten thousand coming from the right, and three thousand coming from the left. There are more than ten Superior Demons among them.

"The front one is all the demons under the spider, while the right one is coming from the airport, huh? If that's the case, the left side should be formed from all the reinforcement they have gathered in the past week. In that case…" Noel shouted, "Anna. I'll go to the left and make my way to the spider. I'll leave the rest to you."

"Alright." Anna smirked and immediately charged forward, as if they had discussed what to do in such a situation.

Noel also landed on the ground since it was much easier to move around like this.

He went to the left side. Although he didn't really want to let Anna face all those fifteen thousand demons by herself, he had to conserve his strength as much as possible.

He didn't want to admit it, but even after becoming a Spirit Transcendence expert and having True Spirit Body, he didn't know if he could win or not.

After all, this was the first the wanted and had the potential to kill an Ancient Demon at their full power.

Roar!

Roar!

Roar!

As expected, the demons noticed what Noel and Anna wanted. The Superior Demons immediately ordered a few thousand demons to stop Noel.

Anna's eyes flashed the moment those demons tried to stop Noel.

"Lightning Transformation!"

Her blond hair turned white, and lightning started sparking around her body. It didn't look that different at first glance, but Anna's speed was amplified greatly.

After all, she suddenly disappeared from the demons' eyes.

"!!!" The demons becconfused, especially the low level ones, considering they were ordered to defeat Anna.

There was another roar coming from the side, specifically from the demons that were trying to reinforce their right side.

The demons were stunned. Anna actually appeared in their way all of a sudden. Even the Superior Demons couldn't follow Anna's movement.

The Superior Demons were glaring at Anna. Even the Grass Demon changed the order so that all his ten thousand demon subordinates would aid the middle group. This way, they could break through using all these demons.

The plan still hadn't changed. They would exhaust Anna's spiritual energy with numbers. After all, they had fifteen thousand demons to spare.

"Yeah. This is good!" Anna smirked. "Come!"

Roar!

The demons were approaching Anna at high speed. Even if Anna killed the ones in the front, the demons on the back would step over their dead bodies without any hesitation because they had been ordered to do so by the Superior Demons. And that order was absolute.

That was why Anna would be overwhelmed with this strategy.

However, Anna had also beca Spirit Transcendence expert. She gathered her lightning inside her blade before stabbing the ground, sending forth the lightning in a fan-

shaped area.

The screeching noises of the lightning rang in their ears even though the intensity of the lightning was actually the sas the one she released previously.

However, when there was a lightning strike bouncing off the ground and hitting a demon, instead of electrocuting the demon, the lightning strike actually blew its body apart, leaving an edge of scorching flesh in the remaining part of its body.

And that lightning couldn't be stopped even by the demons behind it.

Ro—!

Raaw—!

The demons were wailing in pain, but they couldn't even finish it because the lightning had struck them and destroyed the upper half of their bodies.

The Superior Demons panicked. This was uncharted territory for them, especially with the fact that they had to face two Spirit Transcendence experts.

The Superior Demons had to continue pushing forward.

The demons stepped over their comrades' bodies in order to reach Anna.

"You are really like that…" Anna smiled as if this were within their plan.

Anna pulled back her sword. The lightning started sparking at the edge of her blade before she swung it.

A crescent-shaped sword strike flew toward the demons, but suddenly stopped as if it just hit an invisible wall. The lightning even created a crack in the air.

But this was just how it looked. Meanwhile, those lightning strikes that turned into cracks were actually being held down by Anna so that the center part, where most energy was concentrated, didn't leak or move.

"I have to thank your leader because… her web has givensuch inspiration. I'll call this Lightning Eye!"

The center part of the lightning that looked like a human eye released a burst of energy and those cracks looked like eyelashes.

The eye suddenly formed a half-sphere and expanded it forward.

The demons that ended up entering this sphere got their bodies fried by the lightning. Their deaths were different from the previous lightning strike.

The demons didn't even have tto let out any sound before they dropped to the ground. Even their corpses were gradually being reduced to nothing.

Roar!

Roar!

The Superior Demons commanded the demons to avoid that attack, but Anna was actually using it as bait so that she could find the Superior Demon among them.

"Found one." Anna sheathed her blade as she planned to release another strike that would kill the Superior Demon in one hit.

At the stime, the Ancient Demon Spider had finished gathering its energy, using this chance to defeat Anna.

When the demon spider was about to release its poison ray, there was a ruckus coming from the left group.

Bam!

Roar!

More than fifty demons were sent flying with a powerful shock wave from the ground.

In the middle of those demons was Noel, with his sword already above his head.

"Oi, spider. I hope you don't forget about me. I only managed to use about 20% of Divine Slash's power, but I have advanced to the Spirit Transcendence rank this time… I will test the might of 50% of Divine Slash's power." Noel smirked while slashing downward.
