"The situation has be stable. The fort might be half-destroyed, but the demons are almost wiped out. The Superior Demons have died and the remaining demons won''t be able to stop those people.


    "To think he manages to do it…" Kevin Stargaze looked at the fort with a smile.


    Since Anna was the one inviting him to the hot springs in the first ce, she apanied him to this ce to see the situation as well. She couldn''t help but smirk, feeling a bit defeated.


    She expected Noel to survive, but she never thought that Noel''s n stretched to this extent.


    "As expected… I still can''t bepared to him in this area. Even though I have grown a lot, he is also growing at the same pace." Anna made a frustrated grin. On the one hand, she felt excited to know there was someone who could keep up with her pace. On the other hand, shepletely admitted her defeat.


    Still, there was one thing that had been bothering her the entire time. She nced at her father and asked, "Father… May I ask what kind of conversation you had with him? What kind of n did he give you?"


    Kevin looked at her for a moment before having a small smirk. "Hehe. Are you curious? Well, I don''t mind telling you about it. To put it simply, I told him that if he wants to be my son-inw, I won''t say no."


    "…" Anna blinked a few times as if she didn''t believe what she had just heard. Soon, her face became a bit red and she hurriedly retorted. "What are you talking about? I have done all that to him. Even though the misunderstanding has been resolved, we can''t go with that route…"


    "Hahaha. It''s true I told him that though." Kevin chuckled. "Anyway, I''m not going to do anything with your rtionship. You have been gued by your teacher''s words in the past. But I don''t see anything like that in your eyes now. So, I know that all rtionships, whether it''s a friend or lover in the future,e from your decision. All I have to do as your parent is to support you."


    "…" Anna looked down, feeling a bit dejected. She thought she truly couldn''t win against her father.


    In her past life, she might not be as old as her current father, but their age shouldn''t be that different. Yet, she felt like she was still immaturepared to her father.Content from N?velDr(a)ma.Org.


    ''Tsk. I can''t defeat my father in this… If only I had grown a lot in my past life, I would have been more mature… Well, I guess it''s fine for now. I can still feel the joy of being a daughter.'' Anna made a small smile before saying, "Hmm… Though, I wish that you could tell everything."


    Kevin thought for a moment and decided to tell her about Noel''s n.


    …


    A week ago.


    "So, what''s your n?" Kevin asked.


    Instead of answering with the n he had in mind, Noel fell silent for a moment as if he was adjusting his n. After a while, Noel began his exnation.


    "Before telling you my n, I''d like to confirm something about your power. Can you create a domain like this for a fight?"<novelsnext></novelsnext>


    "Yeah. I can maintain the domain and no one will realize it. The distortion will make the others think that there''s nothing change inside the domain, but once I retract my power, the only thing you see is the aftermath. That''s the reason why I''m known as Fleeting Arbiter."


    Noel nodded his head. "Then, my n is to give the nt Lord an opportunity to cause a ruckus. If he is truly an enemy, then I''m sure that he''s going to sabotage the entire operation. In that case, there''s no need to hesitate to kill him.


    "If he doesn''t sabotage the expedition, then the n will just end up bing a failure.


    "Anyway, I will create an opportunity. Once the nt Lord causes the ruckus, the demons will surely attack us. I''ll try to manipte all of them to return to the fort and station the nt Lord outside the fort.


    "It will look reckless at first nce, but if I ask Captain Septa to handle his security, he surely won''t reject that idea. It will also be beneficial for us as well.


    "During that time, I will prolong the battle or change the situation that forces Captain Septa, Captain Shale, Captain ra, and the Stone Lord to make their moves, leaving the nt Lord alone.


    "I want you to use your ability to create a domain for his execution. Is that possible?" Noel asked.


    Kevin put his chin on his hand and fell into deep thought. "The executioner is Dimitri?"


    Noel nodded. "Do you know him?"


    "Of course. I know people call him Shadow, the former captain of the Demon Assassination Squad. He saved my life a couple of times under your father''s order, you know." Kevin paused for a moment. "Dimitri didn''t cause a lot of ruckus during an assassination."


    "So, even if I erected my domain, it wouldn''t be hard to clean up. Though, the only problem would be how you nned to exin it to the Tower Association."


    Noel smirked. "Just let the Supreme Devil Organization take the me."


    "!!!" Kevin was taken aback before a smile appeared on his face. "I see. So, you''re going that way. I get a good grasp of your n now. I guess it''s as expected from Luke''s son. You''re truly devilish."


    "Please call it smart, please."


    "No. I will call you the way I call your father, little fox." Kevin smiled. He patted Noel''s shoulder and said, "Alright. I''ll follow your n. Just think of this as the repayment for taking care of my daughter."


    When Anna heard the story, she couldn''t help but shake her head helplessly. "How could he even think that far?"


    "Well, you are the same age as him. All I can tell you is that if you decide to do it, make sure to do it as soon as possible. Don''t wait until he shines like the brightest star in the sky." Kevin advised her with a smile.
