"We have received news about another attack. It's in Count Halder's territory, not far from Marquis Stargaze's territory."
"!!!" Noel and Anna widened their eyes. Anna hurriedly got off Noel, her face flushed red because they were caught red-handed.
Noel, although embarrassed, maintained his solemn face. "This attack is much more obvious than the first one."
"Indeed." Rose nodded. "It looks like Anna has to go for this one."
Noel had already prepared himself for this attack. It looked like they were trying to separate Anna from him. As a result, the target could be either him or Anna.
Rui might be important, and killing her would hurt the Ardagan family. However, both Noel and Anna had the potential to become a spirit king. As long as they became one, the demon had a chance to fail even if Rui died.
And to achieve their goals, they had to separate Anna.
