System vs Rebirth Chapter 413 Current Situation

“What is this?” The king gritted his teeth, glaring at Anna’s teacher, Josephine. He was angry after reading the documents Josephine provided. After all, it stated the Count ended up paying for everything.

It wasn’t supposed to happen. Anna should have fallen into the Royal Family’s hands. Yet, no one could say a thing about what happened to the Count.

Their spies, two peak Spirit Wielders, had died on duty. The Count and his wife had died due to suicide.

How could he believe such a report? Something must have happened, and it was possible that Anna managed to trick the two of them, allowing her to take them down. After that, the Count was killed in order to mess with the truth.

As for the successor, the first son of Count Swirzel, he was afraid of Anna’s retaliation, so he gave fake news to the Royal Family. The trauma Anna inflicted was far greater than one’s imagination.

At the same time, the Royal Family had yet to know their letter to the Count was in Anna’s hand. If Anna kept gathering all the proof about their Royal Family, she could gain more and more advantages against them.

Obviously, there were many families who wanted the weaknesses of the Royal Family. And if the proof was spread among the people, it would create massive chaos in the country.

However, Anna wasn’t planning for a rebellion like Noel in her past life. Instead, she wanted to use this proof to investigate Noel’s incident, along with the relationship between the royalty and the Supreme Devil Organization.

That was why after getting all of it, she returned to the headquarters to receive the next mission. She had to move fast so that the Royal Family had no time to think about their next move. And by the time they realized it, Anna would have become either Gold Rank Inquisitor or even Platinum Rank Inquisitor.

While waiting for her mission, Anna sat down in the bar while looking down, falling into deep thought.

‘Hmm… I reached Silver Rank after the last mission. It seems the Royal Family hasn’t done anything to alter the reward in the organization. Well, I can also use it as proof of the Royal Family’s sabotage, so I guess they won’t do it anytime soon.

‘If I can reach Gold Rank, I can form my own team or even do it alone since even the head of this organization has put up the rule about the Gold Rank’s privilege. Even the Royal Family can’t put anyone on my team just like that.

‘Still, I might need another four to six months to reach Gold Rank at my current pace. It’s truly a bit hard on my body, considering my completion speed is much faster than anyone here.

‘Either way, I manage to gain some stability in this place. The only thing I have to worry about is Noel. Since the organization is used to keep the balance in the kingdom, I can easily get information about the Demon Relief Squad. I guess I’ll take a mission near it in another two months.

‘I think Noel won’t have much problem, considering he can grow at the same pace as me, who has the memory of my past life.

‘Though, I wonder how long it will take for Noel to become a Vice Captain or even a Captain…’

Anna fell silent, recalling her memory of Noel. ‘Noel once became the youngest captain in history, albeit with his second identity. After that, he retires and becomes a noble, re-establishing the prestige of the Ardagan Family.

‘If I’m not wrong, he was eighteen or nineteen years old at that time… So, I guess two to three years. Gold Rank can be achieved in just a half year, and I might need another year to reach Platinum Rank.

‘And I should use the last six months to challenge an Arbiter and get their position. When I reach that point, the Royal Family won’t have too much power against me…

‘Well, my father has been suppressed by them, but I am on a different path. I don’t have any weaknesses they can exploit right now. And it’s basically impossible for them to force me to marry the crown prince…

‘Wait, speaking of a prince… the king’s brother, who failed to ascend the throne, was called the Third Prince. That title still stuck with him because of his previous position, while the current king was actually the second prince.

‘He refused to take on a Duke Title because of the shame he received from the current king. Still, there’s no reason for him to keep that title, considering people will confuse him with the current third prince.

‘Is there a deep meaning behind that title? Something is amiss…’ Anna felt something wrong with the Third Prince.

‘The connection between the Third Prince, Noel’s parents and the royal family. I’m afraid there is something going on between them, considering the Third Prince once plotted together with my teacher…

‘Is my teacher a spy? Or is the Third Prince still a part of the Royal Family…’

Anna felt Noel might also fall from the trick. Although Noel was smart, there was still a possibility of it. So, she couldn’t dismiss it entirely.

‘It seems I have to investigate the connection between him and my teacher. I don’t know if they have made contact or not, but… I’ll surely discover them.’

Anna felt fired up. On the one hand, she didn’t want to lose against Noel this time. On the other hand, she also felt like the kingdom was darker than she thought.

After the reincarnation, she wanted to make the kingdom bask in golden light, so she wanted to correct the kingdom. That was why she had to investigate everything and know the depth of the darkness she wasn’t aware of in her past life.

‘This is making me excited. I’ll know everything and make my decision at that time.’
