[Silver Ash] - Become The Strongest In Another World
CHAPTER 50: The Purpose

...****************...


"That's how, we'll be leaving town in a few days from now"


Noelle's words made Charlotte and Chloe widen their eyes in shock.


"Go? Wh why? ", Charlotte asked as she tilted her head.


Chloe also wanted to ask the same question, but Noelle spoke again.


"Well, this may be related to my goal .. Somehow I have to do it .. This is at once to solve your problem, Charl"


" ……… ", Charlotte did not answer, but simply bowed with a gloomy face.


Noelle says this is to solve her problem, which means it is related to her revenge on a man named Harold.


Sensing Charlotte's worsening mood, Noelle sped up her words and took out a piece of paper from her pocket.


"Here, look at this", Noelle said as she unfolded the paper.


As soon as Charlotte saw what was on the paper, she widened her eyes and a strong killing intent began to come out of her.


On the paper was a picture of a man whose face Charlotte would never forget.


Although the image was only created by scribbling black ink on paper, Charlotte could clearly imagine every feature of the man's face on her mind.


The memory of his red smoldering hair, his extremely cold eyes looked down on everyone in the world as if they were just dirty cattle, dirty cattle, as well as the disgusting smile as the man stained Veronica's beautiful body began to flood Charlotte's head.


Charlotte felt her head filled with anger, her eyes starting to turn red as she continued to look at the face in the picture with hatred.


(Ohh wow... It seems that I accidentally triggered his negative emotions ... will this awaken his [Wrath] skill? I hope not .. ), Noelle started to break out in cold sweat when she thought Charlotte's [Wrath] skill would rise.


Based on the explanation Isis gave her, the skill from the series of '7 Deadly Sins' was a very powerful skill. That skill would give its user immense power, and instead, the user's sanity would be eroded bit by bit.


Charlotte managed to maintain her sanity to date of course because she was a reincarnator from the earth. And all reincarnators have the blessing of Anastasia who protects their souls and minds from anything that might threaten.


Blessed Anastasia took the negative energy from Charlotte and gave her the [Wrath] skill, as well as Noelle who was protected from the domination of the Vampire King's soul as she was about to evolve.


(Ahhh .. Somehow I have to calm her down .. )


Noelle had no idea how much influence Anastasia's blessings had on Charlotte's negative energy and [Wrath] skill, but it would be safe to assume that Charlotte would lose her sanity again if her anger was triggered in excess, so Noelle tried to calm him down.


"Ahh, you don't have to be that angry .. Look at the writing, I'm sure you'll be excited about this"


"Eh? ", Charlotte regained consciousness and noticed the writing on top of Harold's image.


" ……… This .. Bounty? "


Charlotte finished reading it and asked Noelle with a puzzled expression. Seeing that, Noelle only smiled bravely and returned to speaking in an arrogant tone.


"Kuhuhu~ True! This letter was a notice that was spread in the guild this morning, they made a request to arrest a man named Harold from a dark organization called [Red Eagle] … They had put up a high price for Harold's head .. In short, he was a fugitive with a very high bounty! ", Noelle said eagerly to erase the gloomy atmosphere that Charlotte put out.


Charlotte looked at the paper once more. On the paper was inscribed a very high price for Harold's arrest reward no matter if he lived or died.


But if he was captured alive, the price given to them would be even greater.


"I don't mind, but .. Where is he? ", Olivia asked after absorbing the teacup in her hand bit by bit in a graceful manner.


Noelle looked troubled as she replied, yet she still explained in detail the information she got.


"Well, about that .. The guild only received reports that he was last seen in the slums of the Royal capital"


"really? ", Olivia asked without changing her expression in the slightest.


"But .. ", Suddenly Noelle became serious, she spoke again in a gloomy atmosphere and Olivia could feel a strong irritation from her voice.


"There were cases involving him in the elite area of the capital, he robbed and killed all the families who inhabited the mansion of a certain noble family and kidnapped the noble's wife … And the one who sent this arrest request to the guild was the noble who was the victim"


After Noelle finished her words, Charlotte again showed an expression of anger and a strong killing intent began to pour out from her body.


It made Chloe who was sitting next to him instantly tremble like a small animal that was faced with a predator.


Charlotte thought Harold's actions were already inexcusable. Although she might do so because of being paid by someone, Charlotte would still not forgive Harold and would continue to chase after him until he died.


The victim was a noble man with the rank of count, he and his family were on a visit to the capital because of some work, but all the soldiers who were escorting the mansion where he and his family lived, were, neither the servants who lived in the mansion, in the morning had been found murdered in a sadistic manner.


The only body not found is the body of the wife who is now pregnant with her fourth child.


The noble's first child was a woman, and now he was in the Empire with his fiancee, so the noble didn't have to worry about losing a successor, either, but still he could not forgive the person who had destroyed his family.


Fortunately the magic tool placed in the mansion just in case it could record the face of the attacker.


"Even they have CCTV .."., Olivia muttered in surprise after hearing Noelle's explanation of the background of Harold's arrest request.


"Yahh, their development in the field of magic technology is quite frightening", Noelle replied with a wry smile.


"These searches may be a bit difficult as they hide like a certain brown monster that always hides in a corner of the kitchen" Noelle said in a slightly joking manner.


Noelle still hasn't revealed the information she got while listening to the conversations of people she suspects to be Harold's 'colleagues.


Noelle still did not know what they meant by their master's goals, but for now Noelle would raise her vigilance just in case she had to deal with their leader.


If Noelle and the others killed Harold before their leader reached his goal, it would probably make Noelle and the others have to confront directly with a figure who was on a higher level than Harold.


Noelle won't tell Charlotte about this, because if Charlotte finds out that killing Harold will cause even greater trouble for the others, Charlotte will definitely choose not to kill Harold which will ultimately hinder Charlotte's progress in easing her emotions.


Charlotte's obstruction of progress wasn't something Noelle wanted, so for now she would keep all that information to herself.


Surely Olivia felt something strange from Noelle. She can tell that Noelle is hiding something, but Olivia does not want to force Noelle to tell her, so Olivia will wait until Noelle tells her all the information later according to Noelle's own wishes.


"Yahh, we should also train the two of you … "


Noelle said as she watched Charlotte and Chloe.


Charlotte and Chloe had bewildered faces and started tilting their heads.


But Noelle ignored them and went back to explaining.


"Charl's move in the fight was really sloppy, you just used your physical strength as a 'fallen' and used physical reinforcement to increase your strength … You also used your magic without recognizing the situation that ended up backfiring for yourself .. Your only advantage may be a greater level of physical strength and magic than humans and the 'Centipede' sword' which can be used at all distances"


"Ughh .. ", Charlotte involuntarily groaned uncomfortably as Noelle began to reveal all her faults casually.


Charlotte lost her memory in the last 3 months so she does not know what she has been doing for the past 3 months. Noelle understood that so well that she started correcting the moves Charlotte made during the tournament 3 months ago.


"Then about Chloe .. I don't think there will be any problem with you, after training a little, you can fight using the sword smoothly as if you are very experienced, but because your memory has regressed … You should repeat your training again .. Since you can control the shadows, I thought there would be no problem with the way you fight"


"Unn", Chloe happily nodded as Noelle began to correct her.


Seeing that the two of them had already understood what to do, Noelle got excited again and nodded then spoke cheerfully.


"Then, our current goal has been decided~"


The reason Noelle seemed too eager to hunt Harold was not because she wanted to help Charlotte.


No, she did want to help Charlotte, but that wasn't Noelle's true purpose. Noelle's goal is still unchanged, she'll figure out a way to meet Chronoa.


It may sound crazy that Noelle's goal is to meet the creator of the world, but Noelle feels that she must meet him somehow.


It was also important to investigate all the oddities he had felt all along. Always feeling out of touch with the world, Noelle felt that she was a completely different and separate existence from everyone who lived in the same world as her.


No matter how many times he asked himself that, that awkward feeling never disappeared, it was like he was on a different path from everyone.


Although Olivia was always by her side, Noelle still did not lose the feeling of such a stark difference.


So he will meet Chronoa to find out about all the strangeness he feels and find a way to solve it.


Noelle could not imagine for eternal life with a strange feeling in her chest.


Fortunately, Noelle somehow vaguely knew about the location where Chronoa might be located.


And that's the capital.
