Noel was stunned by the sudden mission, but he couldn't show it to Damian, lest he became suspicious.
On the one hand, he had just learned he shouldn't become too dependent on the system and the spirits. On the other hand, they actually offered him the best support that couldn't be refused.
After all, from the way Ardagan worded it, Laufey seemed to be planning to attack them. And if they couldn't survive it, they would die. The attack would probably last for one day.
There were a few reasons why it only lasted for a day such as the reinforcement as well as the other city. Either way, he had to find a solution.
Noel looked at Damian with a poker face, but his brain was revolving crazily.
"…" Noel's head surprisingly lowered as if his mood suddenly shifted.
"Hmm? What's wrong?" Damian was confused by Noel's action. He narrowed his eyes, trying to see why Noel became like this. If there was something suspicious, he would have to find out about it later.
Noel scratched the back of his head while looking away. He said with an awkward tone. "Actually, now that we have reached an agreement, we have one more problem. Well, you can say that I have realized now that my mind is more open…"
"A problem?" Damian tilted his head in confusion.
"Yeah. You should know the group that is chasing after us, right?"
"Don't tell me…" Damian's expression turned grim. "Are they going to attack us?"
"If my calculation is not wrong." Noel nodded with a serious expression. He couldn't help but recall what Damian said earlier.
'If I can't completely rely on Ardagan, I have to think of a reason for such a thing to happen.' Noel closed his eyes for a moment. A flood of memories rushed through his mind. 'First of all, let's take a look at the current situation.'
'The enemies should have five or six Spirit Grandmasters. Two of them are heavily injured, but they still can't be taken lightly.'
'Laufey will be fighting Damian, but he has to be wary of Dimitri's presence as well. So, there might be someone who is strong enough to stop Damian in his stead? No, I don't think he has prepared that much. In that case, is he planning to use the demon to attack the city? That's the highest probability with his current condition.'
'Then, what about us? We have Paul, who can at least stop a single Spirit Grandmaster. I should probably ask him to take care of that woman who slipped away earlier. That's right. There is also another Spirit Grandmaster here, the Vice Captain of the Demon Barrier Squad. If we can gain his cooperation… But what if he knows that they are here because of us? It will put the squad in a difficult position, right?'
'Then, How do we deal with four or five Spirit Grandmasters in case Damian successfully restricts Laufey?''
Noel leaned back on his chair, experiencing a headache. The previous ambush worked because they managed to split them. But with their combined force, their current strength wouldn't be able to withstand them.
That was why Noel had to think of something to outsmart them once again. But this time, Laufey would be more careful against him.
'Still, we have a big advantage, which is the city. It has been fortified with a lot of Spirit Enchantment. But what if they destroy the city because we are here? Laufey should have the ability to do it. And if the demons enter the city…'
The more he thought about it, the more variables that took place in their situation.
Noel had expected their attack, but it was hard to come up with a solution without sacrificing anything.
In fact, he had a few plans ready, but each plan required them to sacrifice something. So, he wanted to find one more path that could suffer less damage than any others.
Damian remained silent the whole time, interested in what Noel wanted to say. He had a high opinion of him to the point he wanted to kidnap him to their Greenwood Kingdom.
But doing so wouldn't give him his loyalty, so he could only watch over Noel to see everything he had hidden this whole time. Of course, he would make him broke.
Noel was quiet for ten minutes before he uttered a question. "Sir Damian. Can you destroy the city wall with your power?"
"Hmm? I do have the strength to do it, but I wouldn't recklessly follow that kind of plan."
"What if you have the help of the demons?"
That question caused him to contemplate the possibility of such a plan. In fact, he began formulating a plan in his head where he could take down the city as if he was one of the enemies.
"If I have that kind of resource, I surely can destroy the city wall. And I don't know the limit, but if it's possible, I would like one Superior Demon or ten Peak Level Demons to march at the same time. It will cause a huge panic as well as confusion."
"One Superior Demon or ten Peak Level Demons, huh?" Noel let out a long sigh. From that number, it seemed that the Demon Barrier Squad would be occupied with handling the demons. In other words, they had to take care of the Supreme Devil Organization themselves.
'As much as I want to utilize my ability in my own way, it seems that I have to rely on Ardagan and Heisk for the time being. Instead of thinking about how the mission can even take place, I should focus on the solution. I will have to reflect on it at a later date.'
'For now…' Noel took a deep breath. "I have one last question. Can you launch a very powerful attack from a distance? Something that can kill one or two of them, specifically the injured ones?"
Damian was startled by the question, but it also piqued his interest. After some consideration, Damian answered, "I can't promise two of them will die, but killing one of them should be no problem. Though, I prefer not to use my ability in front of everyone… You know, politics."
