chapter-375
"Anna. Lift me up!"
Anna was confused by the sudden request and turned around, finding Noel coming to her.
"Wait, what?!" Anna was trying to understand the situation, but Noel didn't give her any chance to sort out her thoughts.
After working together with Noel for a long time, Anna understood how Noel worked a bit, so she ended up positioning herself near the wall while making sure she had enough distance from the monsters.
Luckily, they had killed a lot of demons before, so there weren't many demons left in the gap between the stone wall and the translucent wall.Anna's hands joined together as she lowered her stance. As soon as Noel stepped on her hands, she utilized her strength to throw Noel up.
As expected from a Spirit Wielder, it wasn't that hard for them to reach the wall anymore. Anna didn't even use all her strength and Noel could land on the wall beautifully.
Of course, his action stunned the soldiers. If there were a lot of demons from the bottom, they would think Noel was a demon and begin to stab him. Luckily, the soldiers had an easier time after Noel and the others went down, so they could see it was him.
Noel ignored their reaction as he looked left and right, trying to find Rose. "Rose?"
"On your right!" Rose's illusion immediately told him her location. She even waved her hand so that he could find him.
Without hesitation, Noel ran toward her, planning to give her another plan.
"Rose! We have to change our plan." Noel's expression became serious, knowing the second Superior Demon had come."Another Superior Demon? I'm not sure since I can't really feel the Spiritual Energy from here, but there's no way you're coming here without something that bad going on."
"Yeah." Noel nodded and pointed to the opposite gate. "I need someone… No, I need Zion to go to the South Gate right now and tell the Water Lord to assist us here. Ben will clear the rest of the demons."
"How about you?"
"I will settle everything here, not just the demons, the Supreme Devil Organization, but also my problem." Noel smiled as if he had gathered his resolve.
"Huh? Your problem?" Rose was confused. However, Noel didn't give her any time to think as he had already jumped back to the ground to kill the rest of the demons. "I don't know if I still can do it, but if it's possible, I'll do my best to fulfill your revenge even if it means using my life. And… you don't have to thank me."
"Wait!" Rose tried to stop him but to no avail. In the end, she could only grit her teeth and inform them about their new plan.
"!!!" Zion widened his eyes when he heard about the new plan and information about the second Superior Demon. Without waiting one more second, he immediately returned to the wall and asked for confirmation.
Although he wasn't sure about it, he had to go to the South Gate because he was the fastest. Failure wasn't an option since they couldn't afford to handle the second Superior Demon without the Water Lord.
Rose, on the other hand, changed her focus from the entire battlefield to Noel because she felt something bad was going to happen with how he explained it.
"He's still trying to fulfill my revenge even when our situation is not possible anymore? But why does Noel want to warn the Water Lord who is in the South Gate? No, since when the Water Lord has gone to the South Gate? I did hear an explosion from the castle…
"Don't tell me, the poisoning incident is just a scheme to draw the enemies out? After that, they're using that chance to eliminate the Blood Berserker to fulfill my revenge. But because of the second Superior Demon, the Water Lord has to go here?
"In that case, how does he plan to kill the Blood Berserker…" Rose fell silent, trying to figure out Noel's plan. "With his own life… Don't tell me he's planning to risk his own life?"
Rose instantly frowned. If Noel planned to exchange his life to fulfill her revenge, there was no way she would accept it. She preferred to live and pursue revenge for the rest of her life to use Noel's life to fulfill her revenge.
Unfortunately for her, it was already too late.
*Roar!*
*Roar!*
*Roar!*
A series of roars resounded across the battlefield, showing a big change.
Rose was startled by the roars and instantly turned back to the battlefield, seeing the demons moving to the side.
"Huh? What's going on? Why are they going there?!" Rose hurriedly took a peek to the side, finding the demons chasing after two people.
Yes, Noel and Anna had gone out of the barrier to lure the demons away.
"Wait. Don't tell me… With his own life… Noel is planning to lure all those demons as a distraction so our side can deliver a killing blow? But that will endanger his life… The Low Level Demons might not pose any threat to him, but it's a different case if he's luring them to a Devil Bishop. So, that's why he's planning to risk his life for my revenge… No, I can't allow him!"
Rose couldn't allow such a thing. Noel's existence had become a big part of her heart like any other member of the Zero Squad. So, she wouldn't allow Noel to act that recklessly even if it meant he had to slap him.
"You little bastard. Do you think I'll be happy if you sacrifice your life just for my revenge?" Rose gritted her teeth, chasing Noel and Anna.
Of course, there were many demons following her, ready to prey on her as soon as they got an opportunity.
"Tsk." Rose had a hard time maneuvering because of the number of demons Noel and Anna had brought with them.
Luckily, the moment she reached the hill, she could find Noel and Anna's silhouettes in the distance. But she might not be able to say she was lucky to catch up to them because what she saw was Anna stabbing her sword into Noel's body.
"Do you think I don't know your plan? You're planning to use the demons and me to go to the Blood Berserker so that I will die because of him. Is that how you're planning to kill me, Noel? It seems you haven't learned anything."
