System vs Rebirth

Noel hesitated for a moment, wondering if there was any hidden meaning. However, after some consideration, he grabbed the scabbard.

All of a sudden, a black flame sparked in his hand.

"!!!" The Arctic Queen's heart skipped a beat. After hearing how the flame was able to kill the Celestial Wolf, she thought it would be her next. Hence, she immediately dropped the box and jumped back in fear.

The flame touched the box and burned it completely before it could touch the ground, proving that the story wasn't an exaggeration.

The elders looked shocked. The flame itself wasn't a part of Noel, so it was just purely the flame of the scabbard. And it could actually burn the box to nothingness in less than a second.

More importantly, the flame started spreading to Noel's hand.

Noel remained silent, as if the flame wasn't hot. But as he expected, he could feel the attachment to the scabbard, but not Ardagan.

"…" Noel bit his lips. It seemed that this wasn't enough to wake him up. Nevertheless, the flame continued moving up his shoulder. If this continued, it would burn his clothes.

Hence, Noel began to channel his spiritual energy. The flame clashed with his spiritual energy, but because his body had fused with Ardagan, the flame recognized the spiritual energy.

It gradually changed from burning spiritual energy to harmonizing with it.

"Go back." Noel muttered as if he were communicating with the flame.

The flame gradually moved back to the scabbard. Some of them were still rebellious, but Noel continued to infuse his spiritual energy until they were under his control.

Noel could kind of understand what was going on.

'This scabbard… is it the flame itself? Or should I say the container for the flame? The physical form is the sword, while the scabbard is the storage. If I consider it that way, the core must be the amplifier.'

Noel gradually closed his eyes to feel the scabbard. It felt like the scabbard had its own consciousness, or it might be a part of Ardagan's consciousness.

When Noel opened his eyes again, he noticed that everything was dark, with numerous small dots emitting light from very far away.

"Huh? Where is this?" Noel looked around. He saw a small sphere floating in the middle of nowhere. "Where am I? Is the scabbard trying to show me something?"

Suddenly, a figure flew from behind him.

"!!!" Noel was startled because he didn't feel this presence coming. More importantly, when he saw his back, he couldn't help but remember a certain person's appearance. "Wait… Is that the Spirit God?"

"I can move my body now?" Noel adjusted his position. There was only one thing he should do. He chased after the Spirit God as quickly as possible.

The original small sphere expanded rapidly before his eyes. Before he knew it, the small sphere had turned into a colossal mountain. But it didn't stop there.

"W-What is this big thing?" Noel gasped. The sphere turned out to have a diameter of 500 kilometers. He felt like an ant in front of a mountain. "Is there an object this big in this world?"

When he passed the colossal rock, he noticed there was another sphere. It seemed that this rock was heading to that sphere. But unlike this rock, this sphere had a lot of colors on it. There were a few strokes of white color floating on top of the bluish water color. He was mesmerized by the beauty of this sphere, but that was when he sensed a massive spiritual energy coming from the side.

The Spirit God was standing in front of the colossal rock.

On his hand was a beautiful golden flame, increasing the freezing temperature drastically. When he shot out this small flame toward the giant rock, he thought that it was impossible to do anything against it.

Noel had thought that his ancestor destroying mountains with his sword was a realm that no one could easily reach. But this rock was at least 500 times bigger than the mountain he cut. There was no way it was going to work.

Yet the Spirit God still sent forth that small flame toward this rock. The small spark burst into a raging flame. It was burning everything, using the rock itself to act as its fuel.

In just five minutes, it covered ten percent of the rock's surface. In ten minutes, it covered half of the rock's surface. In thirty minutes, it burned half of the rock. And in an hour, there was nothing left behind.

"What is this…" Noel dropped his jaw in disbelief. "That flame is—"

Before he could finish his words, his head suddenly started spinning.

"Kh." Noel clutched his head. There was an influx of information entering his brain. ƒгeewebnovёl.com

'The Undying Fire is a part of the essence of fire, the flame that burns everything.'

"!!!" Noel was astounded by the statement that rang in his head. He also got more understanding about his flame. "The flame that can burn anything? If it's really able to burn anything, it also means that it can burn nothing.

"If that's the case, it might also be possible to burn that curse." Noel gritted his teeth as the pain kept increasing, and he didn't know why. But he needed to get a bit more time to complete his thought. "If that's the case, then… if I can control to burn only the curse…"

Noel's consciousness started to disappear as he muttered his last words. "The Celestial Wolf died because…no one controlled this flame."

"Haaa… Ha…!" Noel started panting heavily when he snapped back to reality.

"Noel?!" Anna panicked while the others were staring at him worriedly. "What's wrong? Your body is convulsing like crazy."

"I am…" Noel wanted to assure her, but he couldn't complete his words. The blood rushed toward his head as he suddenly dropped to his knees. He spat a few mouthfuls of blood. "Geeeh!"

"Call… Call the prophet!" The overseer hurriedly shouted.

Anna approached Noel, trying to check on his condition.

However, Noel grabbed Anna's arm. He said, "I… might have found a way to remove the curse…" before passing out.
