System vs Rebirth

"So this is what you're searching for from the Greenwood Kingdom." Rose squinted her eyes, examining the compass. Just like she originally expected, it was like a normal broken compass. People could easily mistake this as junk.

"Yeah. Nevertheless, we are getting this for free, so…" Anna shrugged.

"Free, huh? We are already planning for the expansion to other kingdoms. They are bound to happen in a year or two, but…"

"But they don't know." Anna nodded. "The fact they don't know about this gives us this compass. As Noel said, information is the most important and powerful weapon. Without them knowing about this compass or our expansion plan, they end up giving this compass."

Rose nodded with a serious expression. "So what are we going to do next?"

"We will…" Anna paused for a moment and closed her eyes. She channeled her spiritual energy into the compass while thinking about the closest Supreme Devil Organization's branch.

She didn't know how to utilize this compass, so she just tried to use her spiritual energy. It was said the compass would lead her to that exact location.

And it did.

The broken compass that kept moving as if it couldn't find the world's magnetic field ended up pointing in a single direction.

"This is…" Rose looked surprised.

Anna put down the compass, confirming that the compass was pointing northwest.

"I'm thinking about the nearest location of the Supreme Devil Organization branch. And this is the result." Anna's expression turned solemn. "Call Dimitri right away."

"Yes!" Rose nodded.

It didn't take too long for Rose to return with Dimitri.

Obviously, Dimitri didn't understand the power of the broken compass.

However, Anna simply said, "Dimitri. I need you to move in a straight line in this direction," while pointing at the compass. "This includes the buildings in our city."

"What is going on, Mistress?" Dimitri frowned. "I'm afraid I don't know anything about this."

Anna continued, "This compass is currently pointing at the nearest branch of the Supreme Devil Organization. We don't know where, but we know its general location. All you just need to do is follow this direction until you find it.

"Considering they are humans, I don't think they will be that deep into the demon territory."

"Hmm." Dimitri thought for a moment. "Do you want me to ambush them?"

"No. All I want is to locate them as well as confirm the compass' power. If you find them within our territory, that'll be good."

"Good? But shouldn't we get rid of them?"

"Of course. However, getting rid of them all of a sudden for no apparent reason might raise their suspicion. And with their knowledge, there's a chance they will realize we have gotten this broken compass.

"Rather than alarming the enemies, it's better to proceed more cautiously, especially since the Third Prince is also on the move.

"Hence, my plan is to have the soldiers expand in that general direction. Once they're close enough, even the Supreme Devil Organization should have expected they would find them sooner or later.

"Right before they left, we will swoop in. No. It's probably better to get the help from the Demon Banner Army at this rate. This way, future cooperation will be easy."

Rose and Dimitri fell into deep thought. This was a rational decision. Not only did she avoid revealing the Wheel of Destiny, but she also wanted to destroy a single branch.

With the current strength of the Supreme Devil Organization, this should be easy. In fact, the Demon Banner Army could use this opportunity to weaken the Supreme Devil Organization even further.

The weakened organization wouldn't pose a threat when Noel and Anna went on the sea expedition.

Of course, Anna didn't plan to hit only the Supreme Devil Organization. He wanted to crush the Tower Association, the Royal Family, and the Third Prince.

However, confirming the Wheel of Destiny's power was necessary. She could probably test it with something simple, but it was better to use it for something like this.

Dimitri nodded with a serious expression. "I understand. I will go in that direction and report to you if I find any sign of human activity. What if the nearest branch is located outside our territory?"

"Return and report immediately. We won't be attacking them for the time being."

"Understood." Dimitri nodded and turned into a shadow, leaving the room.

Rose asked, "Have you told Noel about this?"

"Yeah. He gave me the full right to do it." Anna nodded while adding inwardly, 'But that's because he doesn't want his fate to be tied into this Wheel of Destiny.'

"I see." Rose nodded, having no more qualms.

Fortunately, Dimitri worked extremely fast as one would expect from a former top assassin.

It only took him a day to actually find that sign, which turned out to be located not far from their city.

While the demons were still looming around, they could use one of the villages as the foremost point for the 'military training.'

By using this as an excuse, Anna mobilized the Ardagan family's soldiers.

Howard could use the demons as training partners for the soldiers. He had seen how effective the combination of soldiers and rune magicians fighting together was, so this was perfect for them to know each other.

Unfortunately, it still took a week for Howard to reach the designated spot.

Within that time, Anna had sent a letter to the Demon Banner Army.

"Sir. It seems that they have found a branch of the Supreme Devil Organization and are currently asking for our assistance." Milfa reported.

"Hmm?" Oscar squinted his eyes. "What unit is currently on standby?"

"Shale can go at any time. In fact, if not for you requesting him to remain near the headquarters due to the current situation, he would have gone to the demon territory."

"In that case, tell Shale to lead his squads to assist the Ardagan family. Make sure to exterminate those pests. Just capture several of them for information."

"Understood." Milfa nodded, acknowledging the order.
