System vs Rebirth-Novel

"Move the stone that way!" Richard shouted, ordering his teammates to bring the stones to a specific spot. He had been helping with the bridge's repair the most since he was the most grateful to the Demon Relief Squad, especially Noel.

Back then, he still remembered how Noel handled the situation. After dealing with all the monsters, they were about to discuss how to deal with the Superior Demon.

"So, where is the Superior Demon? We have to make a plan to handle the Superior Demon. I don't think we can fight it with our current condition and it doesn't seem we can inform a captain from the army to handle it. I guess we have to distract the demon and bring them somewhere else." Richard explained with a serious expression.

Although he didn't like the fact he couldn't hunt a demon, he was still thinking rationally and considered the best solution.

The rest seemed to have agreed with this decision as they were aware of the group's situation as well.

However, Noel raised his hand as if he had an idea.

"Hmm?" Richard furrowed his eyebrows. Although he had seen Noel's prowess, Noel hadn't shown anything about his intelligence. So, he was a bit doubtful when Noel wanted to suggest something.

But since Noel was an expert, he still asked for his opinion. "Yeah. Do you have any suggestions?"

"It's not a suggestion. I just want to inform you that the Superior Demon is a false alarm."

"Huh?!" Richard was confused, while the others were shocked. Richard asked while frowning, "What do you mean? I hope you can give me a logical explanation, or I will treat your words as jokes."

Noel nodded. "Well, I have my own methods to get insider information. So, I'll share the matter regarding the demon nests first."

"Alright." Richard turned serious, judging Noel. The rest also listened to him to confirm it.

"I'm going to talk about how the demon nests are formed… Hmm, I can't really call it demon nests since they're a farm instead of a nest."

"A farm? A demon farm?"

"Yes. Count Elezar has been building a demon farm this whole time. Let's take another look at the three demon nests, the two we're dealing with are stronger than the nest the normal army attacks, right?"

"Yes. What's about it?"

"To put it simply, the original farm is the weakest one. The Count creates a Demon Nest and plans to use it to host the demons. He uses it to let them grow stronger and harvests it for himself. I'm not entirely sure about the process as well, but that's the gist of the situation.

"Then, the two demon nests that we attacked earlier… Those two are basically the additional two nests that the Count prepared in order to get more farms."

Richard nodded in understanding. "But why do those two nests have stronger demons?"

"Have you forgotten?" Noel smirked playfully while raising one finger. "There was an incident not long ago where a huge number of demons attacked your base?"

"!!!" Richard and the other Demon Hunting Squad members shuddered. Richard pinched the bridge of his nose, feeling troubled. "So, you mean those demons are occupying the demon nests that the Count built?

"Due to the large scale of the invasion, those strong demons were bound to slip past them. But because of the empty farm, the demons used it as their nests. Is that it?"

Noel confirmed it without hesitation. "Yes. The original farm was made by the Count and by seeing their strength as well as their number, it's clear that the Count has considered it carefully.

"First, the location. It's situated near the baron's city. The baron can handle all the demons inside that nest, so it's clear that the Count doesn't need to care about its safety since the baron will be there.

"The second will be this city. This city might be under his territory, but his city is still a bit further, so no one will know about his deeds here in case something happens with the demon farms.

"He is even planning to add the number of demon farms. Unfortunately for him, the situation changed when there was a large invasion. Due to the sudden attack, the demons entered the territory and found the nests.

"This is when he can't handle them anymore and calls us," Noel explained the whole situation. Of course, he was bluffing. Anna didn't have all that information, let alone him.

Still, Noel sure had a slick tongue as he almost convinced these people.

Ben, the sharpest one beside Rose, noticed something. "Wait a minute. We're just talking about this because you have an informant, right? We can't tell whether it's true or not."

Noel pointed at the city. He had prepared an answer to this question. "If you enter the city, you will find a Spirit Master from the Supreme Devil Organization. He should be a Devil Inspector.

"And I don't think I have to tell you about the whole reason why the Supreme Devil Organization wants to contact the Count, right? After all, someone in my generation has successfully found out about the way the bandits used demons. And the Supreme Devil Organization must have something to do with it."

The people gasped in horror. They could imagine what kind of a weapon they would have if they could get the Count.

They could simply confirm what Noel said as long as they entered the town and found the guy from the Supreme Devil Organization.

In fact, they could simply talk to Rose, who also entered the town.

Noel smirked when he saw their expressions. It was easy to convince them, and he only needed one more thing.

"If you don't mind, we should go to your base after repairing the bridge. This way, the Demon Relief Squad can help with the reconstruction as well as confirm the situation with your captain. We might find something else."

Paul was a bit skeptical about this suggestion, but he didn't rebuke Noel as if he was also curious about it.

Richard contemplated for a moment. Noel was indeed exceptional. If not for him, they wouldn't know about the entire truth.

Looking at the situation, it seemed they still needed Noel's expertise. So, he nodded, "Alright. I'll bring you to the base."
