Noel stood in front of Clara. He was summoned to her office, but it seemed that the others didn't receive the same treatment.
So, there must be something more important that the rest of the people didn't have to know.
Noel couldn't help but ask, "May I know why you summoned me here, Captain?"
Clara looked at him with a solemn expression. However, she couldn't hide the tiredness from her gaze. She let out a long sigh and said, "I'm talking about your achievement in the previous expedition. Thanks to you, we manage to preserve our core fighters. Even our casualties are far lower than our original expectations.
"Your achievement has to be rewarded. That's why is there anything you want to request from me? I'll try to accommodate your request as much as possible. Even the other captains have agreed to it."
Noel thought for a moment. This was the time for his reward. On the one hand, he had a request from Anna. On the other hand, this might be a huge opportunity for him to become stronger.
He had thought about this before, but as expected, once he was presented with this question, he had to rethink his decision.
'Should I get a pill for Anna? Seeing how important it is to the expedition, it must be hard to get some pills. And it will be suspicious as well… And I will also lose a huge opportunity if I request this reward.'
Noel closed his eyes for a moment. If he chose the pill, he might benefit from Anna in the future. If he chose something else, he might get the benefit here and polish it even more in the future.
Still, the former would allow him to deepen his relationship with Anna even further. It seemed that it was more beneficial in the future to have Anna as an ally, considering her clairvoyant is extremely overpowered.
However, Noel faced one problem. Even though he could request the pink pill, Clara would be suspicious since Anna had taken an interest in him. So, he couldn't be obvious when asking for the reward.
After some thought, Noel finally gave his answer. "Do you think it is possible to request the drugs from the expedition? I don't need a lot of them, just one of them for each type…"
"Huh?" Clara dropped her jaw, confused. She never thought Noel would request the drug, which was the reason for the expedition.
However, she had seen a lot of medicine from the facility. Judging from its quantity, losing one of each type shouldn't be a big deal if it was to reward the person with the highest achievement during the expedition.
But it would surely create some suspicion and problems. Clara considered the pros and cons before accepting Noel's request.
"I can do that for you, but I can't guarantee the quantity and quality."
"It's fine. I want as many types as you can grant me." Noel smiled, feeling a bit relieved.
Clara looked at Noel for a moment, thinking, 'Why did he request the medicine? Is he able to understand the medicine? No, I don't think he has that ability. Then, does that mean he has people with that kind of ability?'
'Now that I think about it, the Ardagan Family was a big family with a deep background. Even though it had been ruined, Noel should still preserve some of its strength. It should be related to Noel's progress.'
pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ 'That makes sense. In that case, Noel is planning to research it by himself so that it will be beneficial to his family.'
Clara misunderstood Noel's reason. But this was probably the best reason she could think of without accounting for Anna.
Clara nodded her head. "I will do my best, but I can't guarantee it. Since I have to ask for the commander's approval, it will take at least two weeks to get the reward in case it's approved."
"I understand." Noel nodded. "We are free for one month after the expedition, so we still have some time…"
"Yeah. For now, you should rest and think about what you should do in order to get stronger. If we are not careful, the next expedition might wipe us out."
"Yes, Captain." Noel bumped his chest before leaving the room. He managed to get the pills without raising any suspicion. Although it wasn't guaranteed that he could get that pill, he had done his best.
So, he just left the rest to fate.
'Now that I have solved the problem with the pill… what should I do next?' Noel walked out of the building while thinking. He had been bothered by a few things in the past month.'
'Well, something is not right. I have done a lot of things to try to invoke some missions during the expedition. But surprisingly, there is only one mission…'
Noel opened the mission again to recall the information.
[Mission: Complete the Third Prince's task according to the Host's best possible outcome.]
[Description: The Third Prince will issue you a task soon, so you have to finish it. But because the Host doesn't know whether the Third Prince is good or bad, the Host has to consider everything first.]
[Reward: Second Slot Medal.]
'This mission is leaning to the Third Prince instead of the Expedition. So, I should receive at least one more mission that is related to the success of the expedition…'
Noel furrowed his eyebrows. 'Still, Ardagan is concerned about my Spiritual Energy Reserve even though I have become a Spirit Master… Is the Second Slot Medal taking that much reserve?'
'Or is there something I don't know? I have asked Ardagan a few times, but he hasn't given me any reply. Heisk has been the one talking to me this whole time.'
'As for the last mission, it's about Anna's secret. Does that mean the expedition is not important?'
Noel couldn't help but wonder if he had made a wrong calculation in predicting the mission.
Ardagan had never banned him from learning about how the system worked, so he had been trying to find a loophole to exploit. But it felt like the previous loophole that he found suddenly disappeared.
'Hmm… Is there a change from Ardagan?'
Noel stood in front of Clara. He was summoned to her office, but it seemed that the others didn't receive the same treatment.
So, there must be something more important that the rest of the people didn't have to know.
