"Fuu…" Anna let out a long breath with a relaxed expression. Her body felt light after getting the massage. "You have a talent in this… Why don't you just drop your goal and beco my personal masseur?"
Noel's eyebrows twitched, wanting to smack her right in the face. However, he dropped the matter since he had to ask her about her mission. "So, let's continue our discussion."
"Well…" Anna was a bit disappointed since she wanted to enjoy more of it. But her body was already relaxed, so she had no other option but to stop. "Alright. I'm here on a mission as well. What is your mission? The loser will have to answer first."
Noel shook his head helplessly. It seed the victory this ti had gone to her head. But since she won, Noel ultimately told her first. "My mission is to remove the demon nests built not long ago. What is yours?"
Anna looked down for a mont, contemplating. She seed to have seen a connection between them. After a while, she said, "This territory might be under the baron, but the baron is actually a Count's subordinate."
"If we're talking about this area, then is it Count Elezar?"
"Yeah. That guy. According to my information, Count Elezar has been visiting the neighboring town recently. It seems that he is planning to do sothing."
"Isn't his city supposed to be five days away from here?"
"That's why I'm suspecting him right now." Anna nodded.
"Is there any rumor or speculation about his business?"
"We don't know about it yet, but the Count loves to eat demons."
"Love to eat demons?" Noel frowned. Although he didn't mind eating demon at, he still preferred basic livestock such as cows or chickens. So, the fact the Count loved them ant he enjoyed the demons more than normal livestock.
And there was a group of demons around this city.
"Noel. When were the demon nests built?" Anna asked.
"Hmm?" Noel recalled the information and said, "They haven't discussed it yet since the Count doesn't seem to be releasing the information. However, it seems that the nests are built around one to two weeks ago."
"This…" Anna fell silent as if finding sothing. "This is weird."
"Yeah. It is indeed weird." Noel contemplated before raising a question. "This is just my speculation… What if the Count was the cause of those nests?"
"Are you talking about demon farms?" Anna narrowed her eyes. Her tone beca cold and her expression turned grim. She had never heard anything about a demon farm in the past, so it shouldn't be possible.
At the sa ti, they might have been destroyed before the research bore any fruit.
"I don't know about it." Anna shook her head helplessly. "But if this is true, then I might be able to take advantage of the situation."
"Oi…" Noel's expression changed after hearing those words. It seed Noel had thought about the sa thing. But the fact Anna managed to see through that plan showed how much she had improved in the past three months.
"You were the one who told to create an opportunity if there wasn't any." Anna smirked.
"Tsk." Noel clicked his tongue. "It seems that you have beco sharper…"
"I'm not going to just blindly follow your plan. If I also know what you want, I can act differently to match it so that everything is perfect." Anna had a sly smile on her face. She stated, "I am going to ss your team up."
Noel scratched the back of his head with a troubled face. "I am a part of the Demon Relief Squad, so I can't divulge the team's plan to outsiders."
"But I'm not an outsider. I have left the group, but I haven't officially resigned from my position as a knight of the Demon Banner Army." Anna was proud that she could shalessly say that after what had happened previously.
"Our plan is to destroy the nest one at a ti. And we'll be striking the left nest first."
"Hehe, then I'm going to cause a ruckus in the right nest and bring those demons past the Baron's city and go all the way to the Count. When the Count is panicking, I'll investigate his involvent in this case. Hopefully, the Count worked together with the Royal Family since I could get so proof from him…"
"We don't know about it yet, but it's clear that we have to consider every possibility. In that case, I'm going to stall the group for a bit by going deeper into the nest so that they don't know anything about the ruckus in the other nest." Noel nodded in agreent. He knew his role in this plan.
This might be the first plan Anna devised herself and asked Noel to execute him. It gave her a lot of confidence, especially since the plan got Noel's seal of approval.
"Anyway, I have to ask you two things." Noel raised two fingers. "First, you can't show yourself to the group."
"Don't worry, I'm not planning to break your disguise." Anna nodded. "It's going to be troubleso to handle multiple Masters and Grandmasters after all."
"Then, the second thing is regarding the Count. He'll co at you with his soldiers. So, you have to maintain your distance from the Baron's soldiers."
"Understood." Anna agreed without hesitation. She knew the risk of bringing the demons to the Count, but this was the only thing she could do to ss with the Count.
"This is your first plan that we're going to execute together." Noel extended his fist. "I'll watch your back this ti, so don't ss up."
"Haha, don't jinx it." Anna chuckled and bumped his fist.
Noel and Anna smiled at each other. They had gone separate ways, so working together like this excited them a little bit.
After discussing so details, Anna and Noel left the inn. Noel had to go back to the group so that there was no suspicion. The sa applied to Anna, who was supposed to be in another town.
The next ti they et again, they were going to cause trouble.
