Noel's journey was progressing smoothly since he used a horse. Although he often had to stop on the way because the horse needed to take a break, he still managed to cover more distance than what he could do by foot.
It took him three weeks to even reach the border. He had t so bandits on the way who thought he was an easy target, but he completely annihilated them. He didn't even bother to spare them and send them to jail because he didn't have enough ti.
So demons also appeared here and there but like Septa said, he didn't find anyone suspicious. It seed the Supre Devil Organization had been completely focusing on Septa instead of him.
While he was going to the border, Anna was also heading to her next destination.
She stood on top of a hill, looking at a vast valley before her.
The valley had one river going down, splitting the valley into two. The lush green trees and tall grasses gave a cool and fresh atmosphere.
"This one is a quite good place to live, except for the fact that this place is known to be a ho for a thousand demons." Anna smiled. But she suddenly turned around when she heard voices coming from below. "Mhm?"
"This hill is hard to climb. But the valley should be good, right?" A feminine voice resounded in the area as a group of people almost reached the top of the hill, noticing Anna who had arrived at the top.
Anna furrowed her eyebrows when she saw this group. They consisted of five people: two n and three girls.
Anna recognized almost all of them because three of them were actually the Apprentice Knight from the Demon Banner Army.
'That's… Kirika Loetzel. Why does that another kingdom's noble co here?' Anna asked inwardly, not understanding her motive. She looked like a completely normal commoner in the Demon Banner Army, who was living with her mother, but in my past life, she was a demoness who led demons to eliminate a thousand knights of the Demon Banner Army, becoming the reason for the fall of the Demon Banner Army.'
Kirika noticed Anna as well, alard. "Anna Stargaze."
"Mhm?" The others also heard her and knew this na since they were from the sa generation.
"Anna Stargaze? The number one genius in the kingdom?" The people turned around and saw Anna's figure. With her standing on top of the hill and getting her hair gently blown away by the wind sohow made her more charming.
The guys were entranced by her appearance as she looked like a gentle but reliable woman. However, Kirika and her partner didn't forget what he did to Noel when she first ca to the fort. It was true that her treatnt to Noel had grown better, but it didn't change the fact that she was torturing him at first.
Behind that pretty face was actually an evil heart.
However, it was different for the other three who weren't from the Demon Banner Army. The one who led them seed to be a female with long braided hair, but the guy beside her seed to be equal to her. He had the sa brown hair like her, but he had a calm and collected face.
'The Quartzal Family… It was said that Earl Quartzal has given birth to two talented kids. The first one is a timid looking daughter, Misha Quartzal. In my past life, Misha Quartzal becos one of the top Spirit Magician, who is said to be equal to the royal magician.
'And the other kid is Samuel Quartzal. He has beco a captain of the royal knight. Despite his conduct, he's a guy who loves to torture his enemies while camouflaging it as interrogation. Earl Quartzal was one of the biggest people supporting the royal family in my past life but they died when stopping the rebellion army ford by Noel.'
,m 'So, the knight behind them should be Samuel's knight, Lorenzo. He's the famous knight who will be protecting the Quartzal to his last breath.
'But I'm more impressed because Kirika's partner is actually this guy…' Anna looked at Kirika's partner, who turned out to be the bald guy who didn't care about anything other than getting stronger. 'He used his fist to crush all his enemies. It was said that his fist could destroy a small hill with a single punch. The mad champion, Lokhtar. To think I would et all these famous people here. Since when did they climbed? I didn't notice them at all.'
Anna noticed that they ca from a different direction, so that might be the reason why she didn't find them. In the end, she brushed that thought off while looking at them coldly as if she didn't care about them.
But as expected from a noble kid, Samuel and Misha Quartzal imdiately greeted Anna. "Well, isn't this Miss Anna Stargaze? It's a pleasure to et you in this place. We are from Earl Quartzal Family, my na is Samuel and this is my sister, Misha."
Anna looked at them and nodded gently. "It's a pleasure to et the rumored pair from the Quartzal Family."
"We're nothing compared to the famous Anna Stargaze." Samuel smiled and walked to Anna. "Do I have the pleasure to know why Miss Anna is climbing this hill?"
"I'm simply admiring the famous valley that is so beautiful but so deadly at the sa ti." Anna shook her head calmly.
"Then, if you don't mind about it, I can be your guide." Samuel smiled.
Anna glanced at his group. It was true that all five of them were actually talented. They should be able to venture the valley for a while since most monsters here were only Low Level Demons and Mid Level Demons.
However, her destination was further ahead where the Advanced Level Demons were located. Although this was a dangerous trip, she had to go there in order to make sure she was still stronger than Noel.
She thought for a mont and said, "It's fine. We should go separately."
"Please don't reject us. Going into this valley is better with a group." Samuel strongly insisted with a smile.
