System vs Rebirth

"I want to be the first person whose curse gets removed."

"!!!" Noel didn't expect this request. Normally, the 'first' person would etch their name in history more than anyone else, but in this scenario, Old Ru and Andreas would be known more than her.

However, the diva soon added, "I don't want you to harm anyone else in case something happens. We can do it in water, and I will manipulate the water with my spiritual energy so that I can suppress the fire. Among all of them, I believe that the one who has the highest chance of survival is me."

It might be due to their nature or their animal instinct, but animals were known to have more loyalty than humans.

In other words, the diva wanted to do it sincerely to help the Beast Kingdom. If the Muivell Kingdom was at least this sincere, he would probably help them become the strongest kingdom.

Facing such a sincere request, Noel said, "Alright. I can respect that wish."

If the diva had a spirit, they would have a high chance of reaching this new land. Besides, the news about her having a spirit would make other processes go smoothly, especially with the other elders.

The diva nodded. "Well, I do have another reason. And it's linked to the sea voyage that you're preparing."

"Mhmm?" Noel frowned. "What do you mean?"

"How much do you know about the sea?" The diva asked.

Noel crossed his arms and looked down, falling into deep thought. "Not so much. I have never seen a sea, but I have an experienced person who can handle the sea to take the helm."

"You truly don't know much." The diva shook her head helplessly. "You don't know anything about the terror of the sea. It's not just about the water. Have you ever seen the demons living inside the sea?"

"No."

"If you look at the sky, you will find flying beasts. Their number is high, but most of them will eventually rest on the land. However, the sea is different. All the living creatures inside will always remain inside the water, growing endlessly.

"The water pressure will increase the deeper you sink into the ocean. That makes it hard for land living creatures to even invade the sea. The same applies to the sea creatures, but this is not the main problem.

"We have numerous threats on the land while the sea creatures are just fighting among themselves. The demons grow stronger and stronger."

"!!!" Noel and Anna exchanged looks. They were thinking about the same thing. "Are you saying that the demons are much stronger than the ones we see on land?"

"Yes. More importantly, you won't be able to move freely in the water. By using that to their advantage, it won't be wrong to say that several superior demons could actually kill you. That's why I need spirits. Even if I'm equal to them right now, the sea creatures are simply overwhelming in number.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

"And that's only the sea creatures on the surface level. The sea floor is actually much deeper than the tallest mountain you can find right now. The sea is also extremely vast, much bigger than the land.

"With the pressure increasing as you go deeper, the more terrifying monsters will reside in it."

"Demon kings?" Noel's heart skipped a beat.

"I can't rule out that possibility. Even right now, I have led my people to rule a small part of the ocean. However, I can't go much further due to their overall strength being much stronger than my own.

"Getting the spirits will increase our advantage, but I don't know how effective it will be. You definitely can't underestimate the sea. I'll try to help you if I get the spirit, but even then, I might not have the necessary strength to handle everything."

Noel closed his eyes for a moment, absorbing all that information. He had never thought that the threat from the sea was actually much more terrifying than the ones they had on land. However, the sea hadn't done anything this whole time, probably because they couldn't live on the land.

However, what if they could come to the land? It might still be far in the future, but he had to consider this threat very seriously.

The diva nodded. "Any way, you can come to me if you have any questions about the sea. I'll try to answer every question with my knowledge. If you don't have any questions, I will take my leave to persuade the Arctic Queen."

Since Noel didn't say anything, the diva chose to leave, giving him time to properly consider what he had just learned.

Anna, who had been silent until now, looked at Noel with a grim expression. "If what we heard just now was true, then it's not time for our little competition. We'll focus all our resources so that you can reach the next stage.

"I know that you're going to find any arguments to stop it, but I don't like arguments, so I'll just give you an ultimatum. A dead Noel is a good Noel. That's what the demons are thinking. If you're dead, it's over.

"For me, a living Noel is a good Noel. I want you to continue living. We can create more competitions for both of us if we still live, but we can't do that if we're dead.

"I know how much you want me to reach the spirit king stage as well, but this is not the time for that. If you think it's unfair, then protect me from that demon king. After all, you can fight that demon king while I'm able to move our troops to take down millions of demons.

"If you think it that way, my achievement will be equal to yours in that war. No, if the demon army threatens tens of millions of lives in the kingdoms, people will revere me more. In other words, I can still win against you.

"Hence, I'm warning you. If you reject me again, I'll do anything I can to be pregnant and end this competition right away. Besides, it seems that you're underestimating me too much. Do you think I'm so weak that I need your pity for the sake of fairness?

"Just sit there and consider it carefully, I'll have my own way to win against you." After giving that warning, Anna walked away, leaving Noel stunned in the room.

It seemed that she had thought about it carefully before giving it to the winner. She already had a solution in mind.

The first thing she did after exiting the room was visit Old Ru, who was currently sitting with Andreas.

"Old Ru." Anna lowered her head. "I know that this is shameless of me, but I have a request. We'll probably stay here for a month. During that time, would you be so kind to spar with me and also teach me more about the circulation method? I'll try to create my own circulation method."
