System vs Rebirth

"So this is the sanctuary…" Noel muttered while looking at the massive city in front of him. Unlike human cities, there weren't any walls that protected them. It might be due to this reason that they could use their massive resources to build the rest of the buildings.

The sanctuary was located in the middle of the jungle.

The wood was tall and robust. The average height reached as far as thirty meters.

There were also a variety of buildings, from tree houses to normal buildings. They were much more massive compared to the ones they had back home.

What was more impressive was the fact that there were so many people in this place. Some had wings and flew around in the air, some were so gigantic that their heads were higher than buildings.

Still, the one that took their attention away was the massive building in the center of the city. The building was as massive as a small castle, but more importantly, there was a huge tree sprouting in the middle of the building as if it were used to support the entire building.

Noel and Anna could sense some threats hiding over there.

"This is amazing." Noel smiled.

"Indeed." Anna nodded in agreement.

Andreas had a small smile on his face. Even though he rarely showed it, it didn't change the fact that he still had a lot of pride in his country.

All of a sudden, Noel and Anna turned around as if they were sensing something coming toward them extremely fast. Even Anna could feel the danger coming from this presence.

Both of them were holding their weapons for a fight, but they soon heard a female's voice ringing in their ears.

"Don't fight-nya! I'm not your enemy-nya!"

"!!!" Noel and Anna widened their eyes as a figure landed on the ground like an arrow. Despite her speed, she actually landed so smoothly that it didn't destroy the ground. "Who are you?"

"Are you perhaps Noel Ardagan-nya, the guest of the prophet, I mean Old Ru-nya?"

'What is that annoying way of speaking?' Anna couldn't help but ask inwardly.

Meanwhile, Noel was more focused on her reasoning and replied, "Yes. Who are you then?"

"I am one of the seven elders-nya! I'm known as the phantom cat-nya! Just call me Phantom-nya."

"…" Noel frowned. "So… for what reason are you suddenly coming all the way here?"

"I'm tasked with escorting you inside-nya! There are a few people that would like to meet you."

"…" Noel glanced at Andreas.

"She is known as Phantom. She is an elder, the one in charge of espionage. Any kind of movement from the demons will be known to her. If there's anything happening, she is the first to know." Andreas explained.

"Oh! Is that you, wolf boy-nya? You're finally back home-nya?!"

Noel thought for a moment before saying, "Alright. Guide us." After that, Noel turned to the buffalo king. "As you can see here… it's regretful, but I think this is where we part."

The buffalo king, still stunned by the phantom, took a moment to reply, "Y-Yes."

He never thought that they would be able to meet an elder in this situation.

"Thank you for escorting them-nya. The council will remember your contribution-nya!"

"Y-yes!" The buffalo king nodded furiously.

It was a shame, but this was the end of the escort. The buffalo king immediately led his people back, giving them a space to talk with each other.

"What do you think-nya? Do you want to get some rest first or immediately meet them-nya?"

"Since the other party has been waiting for us, I think it's better to meet them right away. Only after finishing the matter can I relax." Noel glanced at Anna, who nodded in agreement.

"In this case, this way-nya." The phantom extended her hand, bringing them inside the city.

Now that they had entered the city, they could finally feel the majestic feel of the city. Compared to the people, buildings, or even trees, they felt so tiny.

However, as Andreas explained, the city had numerous tribes. Noel and Anna could see all those tribes with a variety of body parts.

While their bodies didn't follow the standard of a human, both Noel and Anna weren't at the stage where they would think of them as disgusting. In the end, the demons were more disgusting.

Once they became closer to the temple, Anna could feel the threats more clearly.

"Is the temple so deserted that no one takes care of it? Why can I only feel six people inside?" Anna asked Andreas.

"!!!" The phantom widened her eyes in shock. Even she wouldn't be able to sense those people. In fact, she was more shocked by the fact that Anna could sense the vampire, whose presence was the weakest.

Andreas simply said, "Whenever there is a meeting, all personnel are cleared out. Only when there is no meeting will the people be inside to take care of it. So you don't have to worry…"

"I see." Anna nodded. "Five strong people, huh?"

It would be quite hard if they wanted to escape, but Noel simply continued because he trusted Old Ru. At the very least, it wouldn't seem that he would be backstabbing him.

"By the way, I'll remain here." Andreas stopped at the entrance.

"Mhmm?" Noel and Anna were confused, considering Andreas had been guiding them the whole time.

"As I said earlier, no one is supposed to be inside other than the ones involved."

"No. You also come too-nya! Your grandfather is asking you to go inside because of something-nya!"

"Me?" Andreas looked shocked.

"Well, let's just enter." Noel shook his head helplessly, since there was no problem.

"Alright."

The phantom guided them into the hall. It seemed that even as Old Ru's grandson, Andreas had never entered this place with how curious he was.

The hall was spacious, as if it were trying to accommodate the size of the people that would enter rather than give a majestic feeling.

And at the end of their path was a massive hall, not separated by a door.

"Welcome." Old Ru was already standing in front of the entrance as if he had been waiting for them.
