System vs Rebirth

Chapter 1095 Decision

The demons were charging from all directions, trying to devour Anna and Noel.

"Get away!" Anna waved her sword forth, releasing her sword strike that cut down more than fifty demons at once.

However, the gap that she managed to create ended up getting filled up with another batch of demons.

Anna gritted her teeth and started striking them down, advancing forward step by step.

She unleashed her lightning attack, exhausting a lot of her spiritual energy to widen the path while protecting Noel on her back.

There were multiple demons that tried to attack Noel instead of her, forcing Anna to spin her body and block their attacks instead.

Noel threw the remaining Intermediate Rune Cards, blowing them up with the Meteor Rune and mowing them down with the Rain of Light Rune.

They managed to advance a bit more, but it was useless.

Noel could sense with his medal that the demons simply looped around and filled up their numbers with the demons within their ranks or the demons under the Ancient Demon.

Anna kept unleashing her attack. She only wanted to get far enough so that the Ancient Demon Spider\'s ray of poison couldn\'t hit them.

However, the Ancient Demon Spider simply walked a step, which covered the distance they managed to create in ten seconds.

It was basically impossible for them to escape unless they were fast enough. If Noel still had enough energy to fight them, they might still have a chance.

However, Noel had just become a liability.

Even though he supported Anna with his Rune Cards, the numbers were limited. It didn\'t even take long before Noel realized that his pocket was already empty.

"Kh." Noel gritted his teeth, thinking that this was it. Normally, he would just toss himself away from Anna, allowing her to escape by herself.

However, he didn\'t do it for two reasons. First of all, knowing Anna\'s personality, the first thing she did was turn around. Even if he explained it to her, Anna would just argue with him, which ended up stopping her. And the second reason was that Anna didn\'t have enough spiritual energy left to break through from the very beginning.

All these low level demons were just throwing their own bodies against them, trying to stop their movements.

Even Anna wouldn\'t be beaten by them. However, once she got exhausted by their number, the Ancient Demon Spider would release his attack and kill her. After all, both of them had noticed that the Ancient Demon Spider was gradually charging its energy to kill them.

That was why escaping was futile from the beginning.

More importantly, there was no way the other Superior Demons would let them get away easily. In fact, they might be the force that had the highest possibility of killing them since they had a smaller body compared to the Demon Spider and strong enough power to contend against Anna.

As expected, the first one to make their move was the Grass Demon. The grass around Anna suddenly grew, this time circling around her wrists and ankles.

"!!!" Anna\'s movement was restrained for a half second before she realized it and let out a burst of energy to shatter the grass.

"Haaa!" Anna shouted while slashing her sword, but that split second was enough. After all, she didn\'t manage to slash fast enough for several demons.

Two of them used their bodies to restrain Anna\'s hand, slowing it down even further. Meanwhile, one Advanced Level Demon took advantage of this opportunity and punched Anna.

Noel extended his hand, but he didn\'t have enough strength to block it. He managed to reduce the impact, but the punch still launched both of them away.

Noel ended up getting separated from Anna and landing two meters from her. The other demons surrounded him immediately.

"Tsk!" Anna hurriedly stood up and moved toward Noel, slashing all the demons around her while ignoring the bleeding on her head.

However, after fighting for so long, her body had become tattered and her energy had been exhausted.

No matter how strong Anna was, with enough numbers, she would eventually be defeated.

Because she saved Noel, the demons behind her scratched her back with their claws.

"Kh!" Anna gritted her teeth. Despite claw injuries on her back, she still spun around and killed the demons behind her, planning to take Noel away with her.

Unfortunately, even Anna knew that there was no way to escape from this place. She just refused to admit it.

Looking at his wife fighting so hard, Noel gritted his teeth. He had done everything correctly, except one. He miscalculated the strength and intelligence of an Ancient Demon.

What a good husband! Because of his mistake, he and his wife would die here.

However, there might be one more solution to escape from here. He had never considered it before because the situation was never this desperate. After all, this would be his last trump card.

Noel clenched his sword tightly as if conveying his intention directly to Ardagan.

As expected, Ardagan understood it and replied to him.

[You\'re going to die if you do this.]

Noel smiled. "So be it. If I don\'t do this, we both won\'t survive. If I can at least save Anna, it doesn\'t really matter. I won\'t regret my decision."

Ardagan didn\'t say another word. However, there was a spark of flame around Ardagan.

"NO!" Anna tried to save Noel from all the demons that were about to gnaw him.

However, the black flame flared up and instantly engulfed the demons around him, reducing them to ashes.

Noel gradually stood up and held Ardagan with both hands, stabbing the ground.

The clicking sound was like a bell that signified great importance.

The flame was in a frenzy, expanding in all directions.

Noel took a deep breath before making a declaration out loud, "ARDAGAN!"

In response, the black flame flickered and killed even more demons, but when it was about to reach Anna, it suddenly circled around her and protected her back.

Anna was stunned. She didn\'t know why, but her instinct was telling her that Noel shouldn\'t do it.

"I don\'t care what\'s going to happen to me! Lend me your strength! I know that you keep giving me missions so that I can grow, but I also know that you are able to give me all those abilities without a mission. Just this once, please lend me your strength!"

Anna\'s face became pale as if understanding what Noel was planning to do. "NOOO!"

"If I don\'t have enough spiritual energy, use my life force! If my Spirit Veins are broken, use my blood vessels. If my Spirit Heart is destroyed, use my human\'s heart. Give me the power so that I don\'t have another regret in this life!"

"STOP! Noel!" Anna rushed to Noel, trying to stop him from doing it. His condition was that he was in no state to fight. If he continued, he would definitely die.

Unfortunately, she realized it too late.

A black flame appeared around Noel\'s body. This black flame formed a pair of jet-black wings and a big ring on his back. His body started getting covered by a black-colored flaming tattoo that emerged from the Spirit Seal on his hand.

"True Spirit Body, Undying Infernal Body!"
