System vs Rebirth-Chapter 1331: Second Profession
Noel pondered for a moment. "I see. So, that's how it is. In the end, the goal of this challenge is to take down the demon king.
"Hence, by discovering the inheritance as well as the scabbard, I will have to increase my strength to a certain point.
"And my ancestor has no choice but to separate the scabbard and the badge so that it can't be stolen so easily?"
"More or less. Yes."
Noel closed his eyes for a moment.
Ardagan, on the other hand, wondered what kind of choice Noel would make. "In that case, please choose your second profession, Master. The option will be the same. Because you have picked Swordsman as your first profession, you can choose between Noble and Commander."
It wasn't something he could choose easily. On the one hand, the Commander profession seemed to be good for fighting with an army. Considering they were going to fight against numerous demons, fighting together with an army was inevitable.
That was why the Commander profession was the best at first glance.
However, Noel noticed one more possibility. Originally, choosing the Noble profession could wait for later. After all, if he became strong with the Commander profession and defeated the demon king, he might be able to recover the eye of the magic sword, thus unlocking the third profession.
He could use the Noble profession to improve his territory further. In the end, after defeating the demon king, no one would be able to oppose him any further.
Still, Noel actually thought the second option was better.
"What if I choose Noble as my second profession?" Noel asked.
Ardagan sounded shocked because he expected Noel would go for the Commander profession. At the same time, Noel wasn't supposed to be someone who did things recklessly.
Hence, Ardagan asked, "May I know the reason for your decision?"

"I have three big reasons. First of all, my ancestor fought the demon king and relied a lot on the Commander and Swordsman professions. That's why he is known as the Great General Under Heaven.
"Yet, even with all that strength, he lost. I'm not saying he's lost to the demon king directly, but the territory is gone and other areas have been impacted so much that the Muivell Kingdom's territory is reduced significantly.
"However, my path is different. In the past, the Ardagan family prioritized expansion without solidifying their power, resulting in their territory being useless against the invasion.
"On the other hand, my path is to expand the Ardagan family while maintaining the connectivity of the territory.
"And to speed up that process, taking advantage of the Noble profession is the correct choice. With me strengthening and solidifying the territory, even if the demon kings bring numerous demons, each city can resist to a certain extent.
"More importantly, I might be able to command an army directly, but I won't be present everywhere. Rather than focusing my strength in one place, I'd rather spread it and create a great wall that can resist the invasion."
Ardagan paused for a moment. "A fair reason. May I know the other two?"
Noel nodded. "The second reason is that the Noble profession is much more versatile. Let me ask this first. If I choose the profession, I have to grind for their medals again, right?"
"That is correct. Everything will be a repeat of the first time. But all the missions will be related to nobility."
"In that case, this is the perfect time. Right now, the Ardagan family is focusing on expansion. As a result, the speed of me acquiring that title will be extremely high. In other words, I might be able to make my Noble profession at the same level as my Swordsman profession in a short amount of time."
Ardagan agreed with Noel. If he were the commander of the Demon Banner Army or even a captain of a mercenary, choosing the Commander profession might be a better choice. However, he was a noble, so if he wanted to catch up, Noble profession was a safer choice.
Noel raised another finger. "And last but not least, although I'm not sure about the mission or medal for this Noble profession, I can roughly guess. It's probably something related to harvest, money, production, and other things.
"In other words, it can also increase all those things.
"If I can acquire the medals to boost it, I can get all the resources I need for the expansion.
"While it's true that a single army with the Commander profession can be strong, I know and have been learning how to fight as a noble.
"By taking advantage of this profession, I might be able to seal the power of the royal family. With this, I don't have to deal with what is behind me when fighting against the demon kings.
"Those are my three reasons. Is that enough, Ardagan?"
Ardagan paused for a few seconds. "As expected of you, Master. I haven't considered those aspects. You make me believe that the Noble profession is better than the Commander profession."
"Well, I believe they are on the same level. However, the circumstances just make me believe that the Noble profession is more suitable." Noel shook his head. "If you have no objection, I choose the Noble profession as my second profession, Ardagan."
"Understood."

As he expected, there were already some medals he could immediately acquire. In the end, he had reached such a high point.
Of course, there were medals like the Food medal, but acquiring them shouldn't be much of a problem for Noel. He still needed to acquire food for his new territory, and it wasn't like the Ardagan family was lacking money.
Still, medals like Talented Medal and Appraisal Medal reminded him of the Demon Hunter Medal and Affection Medal in the Swordsman profession, which was something he used even to this date.
"And now… this is getting interesting. Maybe it's time for me to acquire all those medals and I do know a way to easily acquire them. Time to replicate what my father had done in the past. I will make a charity organization under my name."
